Devouring World Dragon

Chapter 312 The Birth of a Hero

"..."

In the center of the noisy conference hall, a tall man wearing a crown sits silently at the top, and beside him are many aristocrats who are chattering.

They were arguing about how to sentence the two criminals for their crimes.

And finally, when the voice died down, under the unanimous suggestion of the nobles, the man wearing the crown raised his hand.

With a slight movement of his lips, he made the final verdict on his niece.

"exile."

……

Waking up from the nightmare again, the queen covered her head and sat on the bed, but this scene was still echoing in her mind.

After a long silence, she murmured.

"It wasn't supposed to be like this."

Alcmene, queen, is now living in the city of Thebes.

But she is not the queen of Thebes, in fact, she should be the queen of Mycenae.In theory, because she was exiled from her own country.

Her father, Electryon, was the king of Mycenae, but in an accident, her husband Amphitryon accidentally killed his father.Afterwards, Mycenae's successor was her uncle Stenieros.

Because of his husband's crimes, the new king sentenced them both to exile, never to set foot in Mycenae again.

The ashamed Amphitryon took his wife to the city of his uncle King Creon of Thebes and settled there.So, after a few years.

However, Amphitryon was not one to settle for mediocrity. This benevolent and hospitable prince had great ambitions.He didn't want to live under his uncle all the time, and tried to seize a piece of land that belonged to him.

And when the war broke out between Thebes and the Taves, this brave man saw an opportunity and took the initiative to join the war.

The war lasted for a long time, and the women of Thebes were waiting for the return of their husbands, as did the queen who had no territory of her own.

She looks forward to her husband's return.

Although King Thebes did not treat his nephew badly and gave Alcmene a good life, but after all, he was dependent on others, and the taste of living cautiously was not pleasant.

As usual, combing his long hair in front of the window, while staring out the window.

Many times, she would always fantasize that her husband would suddenly come to her window and tell herself that he was back.But such expectations, from dawn to dusk, will always come to nothing.

"Amphitryon, my husband, when will you come back?"

Close your eyes and pray silently in your heart.

"It seems like someone is calling my name."

But at this moment, a joking voice sounded outside the window.

The beautiful woman looked up, and was surprised to find a handsome man laughing and looking at her outside the window.

And just as the woman was reuniting with her husband after a long absence, not far from the city of Thebes, an army was returning.

Riding a tall horse and surrounded by everyone, the king stared at the city of Thebes, which was faintly visible on the horizon.

"Alcmene, I'm back."

The exiled prince who experienced many legends in his life finally seized his own piece of land in a foreign land and established his own country.

Right now, the only thing he has to do is to share the joy of victory with his beloved wife.

However, if it is Amphitryon who is outside the city right now, then who is the one who is having fun with the queen in the city.

……

Hades.

Hades, the lord of the dead, the king of the underworld looked at everything on the ground, at the two stunned people in the city, the angry king and the ashamed queen, with a cold and indifferent face.

"Absurd farce."

For this scene, Pluto gave a comment unceremoniously.

He knew his brother had been absurd, but he didn't realize how absurd it would be.On the day before her husband came back, she transformed into someone else's husband and slept with a wife.

This kind of operation can only be said to be... He is speechless.

But if that's all, it's fine, but according to his brother's order, he also needs to help take care of the child conceived in that woman's womb.

In fact, not only Pluto, but also Hermes, the god of messengers, several hidden gods also received orders from Zeus to take good care of this still-gestating fetus.

In this regard, even if he felt that his brother was doing something absurd again and made such a farce, Pluto could only agree.

For the woman he loves, this god king once made the earth rise into islands and let the sea retreat, everything was done by his own temperament.Just letting a few gods take care of it until it was born, it's nothing special.

As for this child, Pluto only had a vague feeling... this child might not be ordinary.

"Is it another heir you have chosen? Zeus, what are you thinking?"

Pluto held the scepter in his hand and turned it unconsciously.

But even Pluto didn't realize that besides him and several gods, there was actually another force staring at the city of Thebes.

Under the underworld, close to the abyss, a city, or a civilization has been established here at some point.

The half-human half-snake snake civilization.

Nano City, the center of the snake civilization, will be rebuilt no matter how many times it is destroyed.

The most loyal family members and heirs of these big snakes were pulled back from destruction by Mona again.She carefully taught these newborn snake people with civilization and knowledge, and taught them various steam techniques.

For those obscure eternal life technologies, those steam knowledge for building brass giants, the wise men of the snake people civilization tirelessly explored.The father of the snake does not necessarily care about these little bugs, even if they believe in themselves, but the little bugs always worship the father of the snake, no matter whether he responds to himself or not.

And at the core of this Nanuo city is Mona, the daughter of the snake sitting high in the palace.

The pale face of this god of the dead stares down at the earth, at Alcmene, who is weeping.

That woman is not important, but the fetus in that woman's womb is important.

Mona is well aware of this.

Although in the previous exploration of the future, due to the obstruction of the goddess of fate, she knew very little.But she already understood that this fetus must be very special, special enough to make her feel uneasy, even terrified.

The Daughter of the Snake, the Eternal Queen of the Snake Civilization, clutched her scepter and tapped it on the brass floor.

"Dong dong dong."

Not long after, many monsters surrounded the Eternal Queen. She looked around and pointed to one of the eagle-shaped monsters.

"Go and wait on that land for nine months, and when the child of the man and the god is born, you will snatch him. Remember, don't be discovered by those gods."

The eagle-like monster owl screamed, made a strange cry, vibrated its wings, and flew to the earth.

……

And in the city of Thebes.

Whether it's crying, anger, yelling, things being smashed, or even helpless acceptance, the time is still moving towards nine months later.

The queen's belly was getting bigger and bigger, but this didn't make Amphitryon happy, because he didn't know whether the child was his own or the god who disguised himself as himself.

In the end, Amphitryon, out of sight and out of sight, chose to go hunting out of the city on the day of the birth, and ignored the matter.

On the day of delivery, the queen gave birth to twins with difficulty in severe pain.

"Wow……"

In the delivery room, the cry of a baby was heard.

After giving birth, the weary queen looked at her twins, who both looked alike.It's just that one is crying and crying loudly; while the other is very quiet, just falling asleep.

"my child……"

Kissing the child, recalling the tragic experience of her life, the queen couldn't help shedding tears.

The several gods who have been ordered to watch over here look at each other, the child has been born, and their responsibilities have been fulfilled.

"Hermes, I will leave it to you later."

Including Pluto, the incarnations of several gods dispersed, leaving only Hermes alone.

Hermes, who is a tool man every day, sighed, but there is no way, whoever makes him the fastest man and god is a born errand runner.

"However, it turned out that there was not one, but two."

Hermes looked at the twins thoughtfully.He had thought that there would only be one child. Was it two children?
But some intuition told him that only one of these two children was a child of man and god, while the other was a child of mortals.But right now the child has just been born, and the breath is mixed, and he can't distinguish it for a while.

Looking at this and that, Hermes couldn't help guessing in his heart who was the offspring of Zeus and the mortals.

But it was this distraction, but he had already seized the opportunity.

"Brutal!"

Suddenly, a huge eagle flew out from the shadow under the bed. While Hermes was staring at one of the children, the eagle suddenly grabbed the other child and flew out of the window with its wings.

All this happened so fast that even the mother of the child did not react, and the newborn baby was snatched away by the eagle.

"No!"

The screaming mother could only watch the eagle snatch away her child.

However, just because a mortal can't react, doesn't mean that a god can't react either, especially the fastest god in the world.

"Huh? Competing in front of me?"

Seeing that a monster dared to snatch the baby away in front of his eyes, Hermes laughed in a rare anger, turned into a ray of light and chased after it.
