Type-Moon, there are too many myths that defy the heavens!

In the catalog of the Magic Book of Jin, the wise and brave Emperor Taizu was a good stay-at-home man with a wife and children. However, he was forced into a career as a villain by the despicable Cao Cao. He worked diligently for three generations of Cao's monarchs for decades, but in the end he was almost abandoned. He had to rise up in rebellion, purge the court and eliminate evil ministers, and worked tirelessly until his death.

But in fact, Sima Yi's father Sima Fang had recommended and endorsed Cao Cao long before he became rich. Later, he bought original shares for Cao Cao and stuffed his three sons Sima Lang, Sima Yi and Sima Fu into the Cao family group, and appointed them to important positions in various parties... If this is considered as Cao Cao persecuting the Sima family, then I am afraid that many people would like this kind of persecution.

As for the story of how Emperor Xuan defeated Zhuge Kongming and successfully moved into the Longxi area... this is even more amazing.

In short, history books (boo) all use the Spring and Autumn style of writing to whitewash and deify the protagonists, and the heroes who are the protagonists of myths and legends will naturally not be outdone.

But even so, Ash had to admit that his filter for heroes was still too deep.

I know that the Goddess Shura Field is very scary, so it doesn’t matter to you guys just sit there and watch the show.

But it’s bad enough that you’re just watching the show, but you’re also cursing me to death. Aren’t you too stupid and inhuman?

This person can no longer be called a swordsman, but a beast!

Ash even felt that his A attribute had exploded, and he wanted to turn on the lover TV and love his heroic teammates deeply.

The most infuriating thing is that among these three people, he only took revenge on Hercules, but did not deal with Asclepius who fell asleep, nor did he deal with Jason who chose to pretend to be dead on the spot because of his strong will to survive.

Although Ash was not without ways to deal with Jason, he really couldn't find any good excuse to attack him.

After much thought, the narrow-minded Ash decided to keep this grudge in mind and take revenge later.

After making a mental note in his little notebook, Ash looked towards the confinement room where the heroes were guarding, and was startled.

Oh my god, isn’t this the famous craftsman Daedalus from the Age of Gods, his mecha wife Naucrat, and their son Ikaros who is easily soluble in water?

Ash looked at this family of three who could be considered gods in Greece and couldn't help asking, "What did you do wrong to be locked up here?"

In response to Ash's question, Daedalus did not rush to answer. Instead, he stood up and bowed deeply.

"Merciful hero, Asho Adonis, Daedalus salutes you."

After the ceremony, the peerless master craftsman finally responded, "I mixed my own personal goods into the forging goddess's creation, and I deserve to be punished."

Wow, with just one word, he took away the problem of Athena and Artemis and chose to take the blame himself, right?

Could it be that you and my Sphinx are half-brothers? Why are you both so ambitious?

Faced with Daedalus's answer, Ash couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Although he had dealt with Minos ahead of time, thus changing the fate of Daedalus's family, he had just changed their fate when they were captured by the goddesses and forced to work illegally, and they had to take the blame for the incident. The reason he suffered this misfortune was because the two goddesses were maliciously competing against him...

No matter how you look at it, the experience of this generation of the Dalos family seems like a classic case of civil engineering, right?

As expected, whether in the Age of Gods or the modern era, civil engineering is not an easy job (sad).

"Even if you were wrong, there's no need to be punished like this."

At this point, Ash looked at Jason, who was pretending to be dead, and deliberately asked Daedalus, "Who has the key to the confinement room?"

Seeing Ash pointing at him, the clever captain stopped pretending to be dead and immediately jumped up from the ground, offering the key with a smile: "Please use it."

As expected of a hero who can please Hera, Jason's expression-changing speed is no less than that of Athena.

Ash took the key from Jason, opened the door for Daedalus and his family, and said, "Come out, Master Craftsman."

"Thank you for your kindness."

Daedalus saluted again and continued, "We will work hard to atone for our sins and live up to your promise."

"No need to be polite."

Ash said, "You guys better come out first."

Daedalus nodded when he heard this, and then left the confinement room with his wife and children. He stood respectfully beside Ash, like an engineer who was being inspected by the employer and waiting for mission orders.

Seeing that the Daedalus family was so cautious, although Ash felt a little emotional, he did not rush to say anything. Instead, he observed the family closely.

To be precise, Ash was observing Daedalus's Naukrat, who was clearly a man-made machine but had acquired corresponding personality and emotions.

The reason why he looked at the other man's wife like this was not because he had any unreasonable thoughts, but to satisfy his simple curiosity.

Where on earth did this generation of Daros learn this black technology...that he can create a mecha wife with personality and emotions?

"Master Ash?"

Daedalus, a rather astute man, saw Ash's curious expression and immediately understood what he meant. He asked, "Are you curious... why she has a personality?"

"Ah."

Ash nodded and said frankly, "I'm curious how you accomplished this miraculous technique."

"I have only learned a few basic things from the gods."

Daedalus said modestly, "You can always have more intelligent mechanical life if you want."

What the hell? I can also have an organic wife?

Faced with Daedalus's statement, Ash couldn't help but feel a little confused.

"How can I have such ability?"

Ash waved his hands repeatedly and denied it, "Don't talk nonsense."

"The technology I used to provide Naukrat with personality and thought circuits was an imitation of the Cypriot god's [love]."

Daedalus said, "Compared to true love, I am still far from it."

How could Ash not know that the so-called God of Cyprus refers to Aphrodite.

As soon as Aphrodite mentioned the "love" bestowed upon inanimate objects, Ash immediately understood what Daedalus meant and asked, "Are you talking about... Pygmalion?"

In Greek mythology, there once existed a very special king in Cyprus named Pygmalion.

Pygmalion was not only a king, but also a skilled sculptor. What was even more bizarre was that this king and sculptor, although blessed by Aphrodite, did not love any human woman, but instead loved sculpture.

In order to get his ideal lover, he poured all his emotions into carving a beautiful female statue, and treated the statue as his own lover, taking care of it every day.

During the festival of Aphrodite, the mad king offered a prayer to the Cypriot goddess, begging her to give him a statuesque wife.

The god of love and beauty recognized his crazy love and gave life to the statue, so that Pygmalion got what he wanted.

This statue, which came to life in response to Pygmalion's love, was later called Galatea.

Speaking of this story, Ash has to complain that although Aphrodite did a lot of bad things in mythology, she can still be the most beloved goddess of countless otakus.

Because this goddess can really turn a otaku's figurine into a husband or wife, so that everyone can get their ideal lover!

Judging from this story alone, even Ash, who was monitored by Aphrodite every day, had to admit that she was truly the well-deserved goddess of love.

Well, that's assuming Aphrodite doesn't turn into a heavy woman and go crazy on him, and even give him a figurine wife.

however.

The allusion and answer that Ash thought of were vastly different from what Daedalus said.

"Pygmalion?"

Daedalus tilted his head and asked in confusion, "Who is that?"

"what?"

Ash was a little confused when he heard this, "Don't you know Pygmalion? The legendary King of Cyprus?"

"Uh……"

Daedalus shook his head. "I've never heard of it..."

Could it be that the story of Pygmalion comes after the Argonauts?

That's not right. Isn't Pygmalion the grandfather of my biological mother, Myrrha, and the great-grandfather and grandfather of Adonis?

Why does Adonis exist but Pygmalion doesn't?

Ash was dumbfounded by Daedalus's statement.

"There is no King Pygmalion in Cyprus, neither in the past nor in the future."

Just when Ash was confused, Helen came to him quietly and gave him an answer.

"To be precise, Pygmalion is the man in the story who received the love of Aphrodite."

Helen explained, "You should know that Aphrodite's [love] belongs to only one person."

What the hell?

Aphrodite's [love] only belongs to Adonis, and Adonis is a human being demoted from the god of plants and trees, and Pygmalion, Adonis's grandfather, is a person who has received [love] like him but does not exist... Oh shit, this is so confusing!

"That... I don't quite understand."

Ash asked Helen, "You said Pygmalion didn't exist, so how did I come about?"

"You, like me, are a natural god degraded by human rule."

Helen said, "Your grandfather Pygmalion, your father Cnysus, and your mother Myrrha are all derivatives of your demotion to a human."

"In other words, they are footnotes to the story that appeared to make you 'born'."

"To use the words of later generations, they are like phantoms, beings born from humans' longing for stories."

Helen continued, "However, some of them possess not only longing but also faith, so they can also break away from the phantom and become independent heroic spirits."

Ash was confused by Helen's words and said with a bewildered look on his face: "If that's the case, then who is Pygmalion..."

"You can think of Pygmalion as a part of you that is derived from [human nature], or one of your identities."

Helen continued, "After all, since you have been loved by Lady Aphrodite, you are naturally also the king who has the right to rule Cyprus."

What the hell? Pygmalion is me too?

Damn, brother, the relationships between generations and identities in your myths are so confusing, so outrageous!

Faced with Helen's ridiculous statement, Ash couldn't help but look at Jason beside him, trying to get an answer from him.

Then, he found that he was unable to do anything. Captain Argo, who put his life first, fell to the ground and did not move at some point.

Ash had reason to believe that this B must have felt that such mythical secrets were not something a small person like him could listen to, so he chose to play dead again.

There was no other way, Ash could only look to Daedalus and seek answers from him.

As if to prove Helen's statement, Daedalus gave his own explanation.

"I don't know what you two are talking about, but I can guarantee that I gave Naukrat a personality by imitating the power of [Love]."

"But ultimately, this is just an imitation technique, and cannot be compared to true love."

"Master Ash, you are different from me. You possess the [Resonance of the God of Love]."

Daedalus said, "As long as you wish, whether it is a machine, a sculpture, a flower, or even an insect, it can gain emotions and personality from your [Love], and even transform into a real person."

"This is your innate power, a miracle I cannot yet achieve. If you don't believe it, try pouring your love into something you love and see if it changes."

"I believe that you can create a more perfect life."

At this point, Daedalus was excited like a mad scientist. "You should try it now. It will definitely work!"

Oh my god, you want me to create a wife for myself?

Can't you see that I'm already entangled by four goddesses and a shameless Hades?

Even if you don't want to live, I still want to live!

What the hell, you want me to create a wife for myself?

But you don’t say it, you really don’t say it.

If I could be Pygmalion and create Galatea... if I could create [Galatea, Orcust] from the Yu-Gi-Oh world next door, wouldn't that mean the Yiwu witch doctor is dead?

Wait, it's not just mecha girls, there are also plant girls and insect girls... That means [Rikka] and [Aroma], and [Bug-demon]...

Oh shit, [Eros Reverberation] is so shit!

?, what is there to be controversial about the golden apple and the most beautiful goddess in later generations?

I support Afu, she really makes a wife!

However, Ash was just thinking about it.

Because he is Ash Adonis, not Ash Pygmalion.

No matter how self-disciplined Aphrodite is, she cannot allow her true love to use her [Echo of Cupid] to make a figurine wife and then go crazy on her figurine wife, right?

It shouldn't be... right?
