The arrogance of the city

Chapter 705 The Day of the God Sacrifice
"You mean..."

"...Athena, does it really exist?"

He Caiwei wondered if she had auditory hallucinations.

Or, was he just teasing himself?
"Of course, maybe not as you imagined."

The carriage had gone away, Li Futu looked away and glanced at He Caiwei.

"But the person sitting in the carriage is indeed the current Athena."

He Caiwei was a little taken aback.

"Okay, don't be dazed, she is just a mortal person, not a legendary god."

Li Futu looked forward, "Let's go."

He Caiwei subconsciously said, "Where are you going?"

Li Futu looked at the crowd around him who started to move forward again.

"To them, and where the carriage went."

……

Acropolis.

In front of the temple of Zeus, the god of the gods in Greek legend.

Look around.

Crowds of people.

Because the hotel where Li Futu and He Caiwei lived was very close to the Acropolis, they arrived here earlier than many people and occupied a position that was relatively close to the temple.

Here, He Caiwei had been here two days ago, but the situation must be different today.

"Today is the day of the Greek God Sacrifice. From the emperors and ministers to the traffickers and pawns, everyone will come here to worship the gods today. This custom has been handed down since the temples were built, and it has been more than a thousand years. as long as."

He Caiwei suddenly understood after hearing Li Futu's explanation.

The day of the god sacrifice.

For Greece, it may be as important as the New Year in their Dragon Kingdom.

The Acropolis of Athens was almost full of people, and there were still a steady stream of people coming here, and they had to stand outside the city walls.

The temples are usually open to the outside world, allowing the world to admire, but the situation today is obviously different.

There are soldiers guarding 50 meters in front of the temple, with live ammunition, to isolate the people from the temples.

Further forward, there were nine figures standing silently facing the Temple of Zeus.

"Why is he there?!"

He Caiwei said in surprise.

She found that the handsome Western guy who asked her to dance on the Triumph before and then killed five pirates by himself in the casino was among the nine.

It's just that the other party's expression at this time is very solemn, and he is completely different from when he was on the Triumph.

And not only his expression, but also his clothes changed.

Similar to the war robe in ancient Greek mythology, it shines brightly under the light.

The costumes of the other eight people are also similar to his, but the patterns on the chest are different.

Three women and six men stand in a circle.

Maybe it's the visual effect caused by the isolation of the soldiers.

Under the bright sunlight, their figures are so tall and sacred!

"Because he is a Scorpio, he is naturally qualified to stand there."

Li Futu, who was submerged in the crowd, said softly.

"Scorpio?"

He Caiwei subconsciously said: "Twelve constellations?"

Women are more sensitive to constellations, and there are often girls in school discussing the constellation love concept.

"Precisely."

Li Futu raised his head slightly, looking in the direction of the temple.

"...is the sign of the zodiac."

Athena.

Zodiac signs.

He Caiwei felt that the world was about to become unreal.

"Then why are there only nine of them?"

Her thinking was about to be chaotic, but she asked a very critical question.

Yes.

Zodiac... why are there only nine people standing here?

Hearing this question, Li Futu sighed in his eyes.

After a moment of silence, he said softly, "Because three of them died in the battle of the gods that year."

Battle of the gods.

This is already the second time He Caiwei heard these four words from his mouth.

But at this time, she was no longer the same as two days ago, she just took it as a myth or a joke.

"...The battle of the gods, did it really happen?"

She looked confused.

She didn't know why she asked such an illusory question, but she just asked it like that.

The most important thing is that the man in her arms didn't seem to find this question so ridiculous, but nodded calmly.

The birth of every human emperor is enough to change the world pattern,

When Apollo entered the list of gods, the world was shocked.

Skynet, the Common Prosperity Society, the Temple... These transcendental forces that are truly on top of the world are all focused on Athens.

Who doesn't want to have one more Human Sovereign in their organization?
Apollo became a god, and the whole world moved upon hearing the news.

In order to recruit Apollo, there were four emperors who came to Athens that year!
If the patron saints of Greece, Athena and Apollo, were added, the number of emperors who gathered in Athens would have reached a terrifying six! !
It was a real grand war.

The battle of the gods, such a peak duel, is undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime learning opportunity. Back then, not only the Emperor, but also countless masters from all over the world gathered in Athens, and Li Futu was one of them.

He was just here to join in the fun, but when the gods fight, it is easy to bring disaster to Chi Yu, and many innocent people are eventually dragged into this battle of the gods.

Someone unfortunately died.

There are also people... a battle to confer the gods!
Li Futu's thoughts were wandering, and the curtain of the carriage parked in the isolation zone was finally lifted, and a plain hand covered with white gauze first appeared in the sight of the world.

President Karpas walked to the carriage, helped the woman in the carriage out of the carriage, bent down, and kissed the back of her hand through a layer of white gauze like a devout believer.

At the same time, from the front to the back, like the waves of the sea, the cheers of mountains and tsunami resounded throughout the city of Athens.

Amid the deafening cheers, He Caiwei saw the woman walking slowly towards the Temple of Zeus.

The gorgeous crescent-colored gown with a winding skirt, and the dazzling waist-length hair seemed to be bluer than the Aegean Sea she saw last night.

President Karpas walked behind her and stopped ten meters away from the temple.

The woman walked to the temple alone and turned around slowly.

That moment.

Seeing those eyes like the stars and the Milky Way, He Caiwei seemed to have really seen the legendary goddess of wisdom come to the world.

In fact, in Greece, this woman named Athena is a real god!

Athena faced the sea of ​​people.

The remaining nine zodiac signs all knelt on one knee and lowered their proud heads.

It's like a primer.

Afterwards, the alert soldiers moved in unison and knelt down on their knees.

Then there are Greek nationals.

From the inside to the outside, with a pious face, like the undulating waves of the sea, he began to worship layer by layer.

Seeing the people around him start to bend their knees, Li Futu reacted.

He has no religious beliefs, and it is even more impossible to kneel down to the Greek gods, but at this time he is surrounded by people inside and outside, and he has nowhere to go.

It was naturally inconspicuous in the crowd just now, but everyone started to worship, and standing there will undoubtedly attract the attention of the audience.

Li Futu's expression changed, but someone solved his problem.

To the southeast of him, closer to the temple than he is.

A blond man stood proudly, attracting Athena's attention for him.

Only then did Li Futu be sure that he was right on the Aegean Sea last night.

Greek traitor.

The owner of the only ruin in the temple.

sun god.

Apollo!
