Under the night, the bonfires in Argos were brightly lit. The people who had experienced sacrifices and divine wars lamented that life was not easy, and decided to eat well, drink well, spend money quickly, and celebrate another day of peace.
The lights in the palace were as bright as day, and officials came with gifts to celebrate the marriage of King Kepus's daughter. It was a very high-profile marriage, just because the man was the son of Zeus.
Kepus hoped to consolidate the royal family's rule through this wedding. He had seen battles between gods and the power of destroying heaven and earth with just a single move. His father easily won over the loyalty of the nobles because of his noble son-in-law.
The wedding was a bit hasty, but the woman's family was rich and the man's family directly moved a gold mountain. The scene was enough, so no one cared that the ceremony was too hasty.
Far away in the shadow of the wedding banquet, Russell held the golden cup and shook it slightly. The wine in the cup was distilled and purified, and the color kept changing.
He's making wine, using electromagnetism.
"Will you stay in Argos after tonight?"
"What, you want to roam the world with me?"
When Russell heard this, he didn't even look back. He knew that the person who came was Ai'e. This woman had been coveting his body for a while, so he was reserved on the surface, thinking that no one would notice.
"No, just asking."
Ai'e shook her head slightly and said with a complicated expression: "I just met Zeus, and he broke my curse. You are right, my fate is closely related to you, Perseus."
"Where did we see you? The bullpen or the pegasus... What, I mean, Zeus helped you break the curse?"
Russell was surprised and said that Zeus is a very realistic person. He will never participate in a battle that is not beneficial, and he will never make friends that are not beneficial. He wants him to take the initiative to break the curse, unless...
Russell raised his eyebrows: "If I guess correctly, you and Zeus are in bed, right?"
"No."
"Impossible, he must have had sex."
"Yes, get out, but that person is you."
"?"
"I told Zeus that I would roll over the sheets with you, and he would break the curse."
"So that's it..."
Russell touched his chin, nodded and said: "Don't worry, I'm a good friend. If you brag so much, I'll try my best to help you realize it."
Ai'e rolled her eyes, was silent for a moment, and then said tangledly: "Don't you blame me for taking advantage of you?"
"No, on the surface you are using me, but in fact, you are pushing yourself into a pit of fire."
Russell sighed and looked at Ai'e: "You're in trouble, Zeus had no interest in you at first, but now that you say this, he immediately became interested again."
Ai'e's delicate body trembled when she heard this. Thinking about Zeus's character, it seemed possible.
"Go to Mount Olympus with me tomorrow, and stay with me from now on, otherwise I can't guarantee your safety."
"Is it such an exaggeration?" Ai E was puzzled.
"What happens between smart people, a fool like you shouldn't get involved..."
Russell cast a sympathetic look at Ai'e: "You shouldn't have anything to do with me. It would be great to have sex with Perseus, but forget it, it's too late to say anything now, just ask for your blessings!"
Ai'e was puzzled for a while. Seeing Russell's leaving figure, Ai'e subconsciously asked: "Where are you going?"
"Go to the wedding room. Perseus, this silly boy, definitely doesn't understand the affairs between men and women. I went over and pointed my fingers at him. I couldn't help it. There are some things that I can't push away. Who made me his eldest brother!"
"There will be someone in the palace to guide them, so you don't have to worry about it."
Listening to Russell's terrible lines and looking at his awe-inspiring back, Ai'e felt bad.
Her intuition told her that Russell was just talking casually, but the next second, her intuition told her that Russell might really do this.
"That's not possible, those people don't have good eyesight."
…
The lights in the wedding room were dim. A middle-aged man with light blond curly hair climbed over the wall and entered the room. Then he skillfully waved his hand and dropped a shell at the corner of the courtyard.
This handsome face with handsome features and this perfume full of sea smell, who else could it be if he wasn't Poseidon?
Then, he was slightly startled, because next to the shell he dropped casually... there was another shell.
Judging from the water stains, this shell has just been fished out of the sea not long ago.
Poseidon felt something in his heart and looked towards the darkness at the corner of the courtyard wall. As expected, he saw a face exactly like his.
(一`′一)x2
The breeze blows, and the flavor of the sea in the courtyard suddenly becomes stronger. The two Poseidons look at each other silently, and at the same time they lose their disguise.
Poseidon, who had just climbed over the courtyard wall, turned into the appearance of Russell in a flash of lightning. The one in the corner had an electric current surging around his body, and his facial features and figure changed layer by layer, turning into the appearance of Zeus.
(?`?′?)x2
After a brief silence, the arc flashed, Russell turned into Zeus, and Zeus turned into Russell.
This time it’s real!
"Ahem, what's that? Don't get me wrong. I'm here to give Perseus some advice. I have experience in this kind of thing." Zeus coughed lightly. He did it for the child's benefit.
"Who isn't!"
Russell was too lazy to talk nonsense, grabbed Zeus's shoulder and led him towards another hall: "What a coincidence, we both thought of going together."
"How about... let's go give him some guidance together?" Zeus suggested.
"..."
Russell took several breaths of cold air before he could hold back a slap and offered advice sincerely: "The princess is mediocre in appearance and not worthy of you, the king of the gods. I know there is a handsome guy in the palace who will keep you under my care."
satisfy."
"That's pretty much it. I'm not picky..."
Zeus looked modest, and then changed the topic: "But you said so, I must meet that person."
Russell took Zeus around a few corners in the palace and came to the king's bedroom. Through the window, he saw Kepus who was drinking to drown his sorrows.
Today was a happy day, but when he thought about the cabbage that he had raised for eighteen years being eaten by pigs, Kepus became extremely depressed. After a few drinks at the banquet, he came to the palace and prepared to get drunk alone.
"Look, is this guy good?"
"Russell, you misunderstood me. I am not a casual person."
"But he is a king and the father of your son's wife."
"That's no problem, I'm not a human being."
"..."
Russell rolled his eyes and left, leaving Zeus standing there rubbing his hands, looking impatient.
…
The next day, Russell took Ai'e and saw the radiant Zeus outside the city of Argos.
No one knows what happened. They only know that the king drank too much last night and fell ill. Early this morning, he summoned his ministers and hurriedly passed the throne to the princess Andromeda, who will be the queen from now on.
"Ai'e, is she going back to the sacred mountain too?"
Zeus frowned and looked at Russell: "Russell, I want to remind you that no matter her birth or status, she is not worthy of you."
"I can't help it, I'm just so devoted."
Russell said seriously, and Zeus nodded repeatedly, indicating that he was like him.
"Russell, it's your first time going to the Holy Mountain. There are many rules there. Let me tell you now..."
Zeus waved his hand to summon the strong wind, and took Russell and Io straight to the distant mountains, Mount Olympus, which is visible to mortals but can never be climbed.
The wind is accompanied by the sea of clouds, the speed is exaggerated but there is no resistance, and you can overlook the mountains, rivers and continents by lowering your head.
The sky is the territory of Zeus, and the wind and clouds are his subordinates. It is easy to do this.
"Are the rules on the mountain complicated?"
Russell waved his hand: "Don't say too much, just tell me their names. Which people can I bully at will? Which people can be fine if I just tell them your name. There are also some people who must not be provoked, even if I tell them their names, it will be useless."
"
"..."x2
Ai'e was dumbfounded and felt weird. After thinking about it carefully, she found that this was really the truth.
Zeus was also dumbfounded and lamented that this child was so smart and could see through the essence of everything at a glance, but there was something wrong that needed to be corrected.
He coughed lightly: "Russell, Mount Olympus is a big family. Don't always think about bullying others. Family members should love each other."
"Are you sure?"
Russell looked suspicious, then turned into doubt, and finally didn't believe it at all.
The continuous changes in expressions made Zeus's face dull, and he said in embarrassment: "To be honest, the mountain is already very messy, so don't add to it."
"I understand. I can't bully anyone on the mountain, because there's no point in telling you your name."
"You kid, how can you talk nonsense? I am the king of the gods!"
Zeus was furious: "King of the Gods, do you understand? Master of Mount Olympus, my name, Zeus, is the law."
"so what?"
"So Shenshan is a big family. Don't always think about bullying others. You must learn to love each other and get along with everyone with a smile."
Zeus spoke with sincerity and was well-founded, but Russell didn't believe a word of it. Judging from the behavior of the three brothers, Kong, Hai and Ming, there must be a group of jackals, tigers and leopards on the sacred mountain.
With Ai'e's intelligence, I'm afraid that if she walks at night, she will be gone.
"Okay, don't talk anymore. I understand the general situation. If the Holy Mountain had been a harmonious place, 'I' would have been taken back to the mountain by you back then."
Russell waved his hands and said bluntly: "Let's just do it. When I go up the mountain, you pick a stronger guy and I will kill him on the spot. This way everyone will know that I am not someone to bully, and I will make a promise that I will never
Is it okay to take the initiative to bully others?"
"I think it works!"
Zeus smiled at the corners of his eyes: "Speaking of which, there are a few old guys that I have long disliked. Let me make a little plan and let you use one of them to establish your authority."
Russell nodded, as if he understood: "If I guessed correctly, that person must be Hera!"
"Cough cough cough..."
The wind was so strong that it made Zeus cough. He glared at Russell with wide eyes: "You kid, why are you talking nonsense again? Hera is the queen of heaven and helps me manage Mount Olympus. How can I dislike her?"
"
"Are you sure? But I heard that you are afraid of old age..."
"Ahem, I'm very sure!"
Zeus interrupted Russell directly, not wanting to continue the topic: "The group of old guys I'm talking about do not include Hera, although she is also very old... Bah, I mean the group of gods left over from the Titan War."
The War of the Titans was a war between the Olympus Protoss and the Titan Protoss. The alternation of the old and new pantheons almost destroyed the entire world and mankind at that time.
The war lasted for ten years, and the Olympus protoss finally won. The defeated Titans were either punished or expelled to hell, where they will never be able to stand up again.
At that time, many gods kept themselves safe and did not participate in the war. After the Olympian gods defeated the Titans, Zeus began to divide the gods. The group of gods hugged together again and became too big to lose.
The old guys in Zeus's mouth refer to this group of people, who follow the instructions but not the propaganda. In addition, the alternation of old and new gods has many contradictions in the distribution of divine power, and they are unwilling to obey the divine system framework established by Zeus.
This is a problem left over from history. The Zeus family rose to power too quickly. After defeating the Titans, they wanted to stabilize their power as quickly as possible.
In the past, Zeus was unable to take action and had no good excuses from external factors.
