Against the background of the blazing bonfire and joyful music, you can see the blood-like wine flowing in the metal cups, and the sound of "whooshing" comes from the men grabbing the fat meat on the plate with their hands and devouring it. look.
Princess Erginia frowned. She looked at these uncultured mercenaries with a trace of disgust in her eyes. She changed from a queen of Thracia to a princess of Thracia, and now she became a Thraian again. The Queen of Sri Lanka, even in the whole of Greece, there are very few women with such an experience.
"Do not touch me!"
Princess Urginia said with an ugly face. She looked at the man sitting on the opposite seat. He was a man who was not handsome in appearance, but definitely powerful. His tall and burly figure looked like a mountain just sitting there. Overwhelming momentum.
Beside him, except for a child who was chewing a chicken leg, the rest of the people either stood aside respectfully or ran around to serve him. Even the men who were enjoying the food were a little reserved, and he said No hair, just rice. He doesn't care about everyone's reactions and just takes everything as a matter of course.
The man in front of her was Heracles, son of Zeus, king of Thrace, and her nominal husband.
This world is an ordinary world with no gods and no extraordinary powers. It is an ordinary world like the earth in the previous life. However, due to traveling through several worlds, there is no supernatural power at all like this. "Normal world" seemed a little abnormal to William.
In the original trajectory of the world, Hercules was a powerful mercenary leader, the son of Zeus, and Hera wanted to destroy Hercules. It was basically the gang of Hercules who wanted to scare the enemy with their reputation. , the practice of exalting one's own worth in order to get high rewards from the kings of various countries.
Therefore, even if the reputation of Heracles spread throughout Greece, it would still be dubious to the real people in power, especially the friends of the Hercules team. Although they respect Hercules as a leader, they definitely don't count. In awe.
But when everyone witnessed the miracle performed by Hercules at this moment, even the companions who had been together day and night in the past found it difficult to maintain a normal attitude when facing Hercules.
In the early days of starting a business, you may be able to call each other brothers and comrades, but when the leader's prestige becomes higher and higher, you can only add the prefix "great" to your name.
"You will rule Thrace, Arius, and come with us to Sparta." Hercules said calmly, even his ordinary words contained irrefutable strength.
The emperor of the Central Plains would personally conquer the country and appoint a prince to supervise the country. In Greece and the West, it was mostly the queen who presided over government affairs. As the former queen, former princess and current queen of Thrace, no one is more suitable to face the sudden situation after the Thrace coup than Princess Erginia.
The former King of Thrace was her husband, the ousted King Cortis was his father, and the current King of Thrace, Heracles, was her husband.
It’s just that Princess Erginia only has one son, that is Arius. The only child is her weakness, so Princess Erginia can control the situation in Thrace, while Hercules controls Erginia through Arius. Princess Genia.
This is a conspiracy.
In order to seize the throne, King Cortis killed his son-in-law, seized the throne, and contributed to the classification and civil war in Thrace. Among them, Princess Erginia was crucial for Cortis to secure the throne. The important credit is also to use children as weapons. Princess Urginia obeys Heracles just like she obeyed her father.
"We will take Rethos's army to Sparta. The soldiers here in Thrace are all new recruits. Letting them go to the battlefield will simply lead to death."
Heracles went on to say that the Thracian troops were all newly recruited farmers and businessmen and did not have combat effectiveness. If they were not trained by them, they would be destined to die if they were sent to the battlefield directly. If they were brought to Sparta, they would be seen by others. What a joke, Rethos's cavalry actually has some merits.
Rhesus, the former king's staunch supporter and Cortis's opponent, came to join Hercules after he became king.
In the original fate track, King Cortis killed his son-in-law and seized the throne. In order to deal with the opposition of Reesus, he used the simple-minded Hercules to get rid of Reesus, and then in turn prepared to eliminate Reesus. Get rid of Hercules, and finally be killed by Hercules.
Now that Hercules has become the king, there is no need to fight such a battle. As for Reesus leading the army with great intentions, this situation does not exist, because the son of Zeus personally commands Reesus' army. What's wrong with it? It cannot be suppressed by force.
"After this meal, I will lead my army to Sparta."
Heracles finished the meal by wiping his hands with a cloth, impatient to complete his revenge in Sparta.
King Eurystheus of Athens killed his wife and children, and made him bear the unjust crime. It is difficult to get innocence, and it is also difficult to get revenge.
Maybe he can defend himself if he knows the truth, but he has to prove something he has never done. This is something that only Zeus can do.
Athens is his forbidden land. Even if he wants revenge, once he returns to Athens, let alone the king who approaches the palace, he will be sentenced to death as soon as he sets foot in the city.
Becoming the king of Thrace was an important beginning of his revenge. In a class society, the only thing that can resist power is power. The testimony of an exiled prisoner against the king is insignificant, and the accusation of a king, even if it is Sparta Will also take it very seriously. .
William does not intend to use force to force the entire world, because there are no gods in this world, so he can conquer the world unscrupulously, but this is meaningless to him. What he values more is how Hercules sublimated Become a god, and then hitch a ride.
It's not that William can't bypass Hercules and directly spread his legend in this world, but this is a thankless task after all.
Because even if William learns the tricks of "Heracles" in this world and becomes a god, one thing that cannot be changed is that in the myth he is really the son of Hercules and Hebe.
Legends of heroes can be realized through great adventures, while legends of gods determine human civilization. The three goddesses of time determine the order of nature, and the goddesses of literature and art determine the realm of art. The first court in the world was established by Athena, who established the role of judges and Jury trial.
For a monarch to be a defendant like an ordinary citizen, and even be caught on the guillotine, the legal civilization of this world has suddenly entered the era of the French Revolution from the classical era. This has far-reaching significance for the civilization of mythology and history.
The power of the gods in mythology was of little importance by William's time. What was truly important was the influence brought about by its close connection with the human world, which was a great achievement that could not be ignored no matter what.
Prometheus created mankind and brought the fire of civilization to mankind. This was a great achievement that Zeus could not erase even if he expelled Prometheus from his divine status.
For example, Napoleon once said, "My real glory is not that I have won more than forty battles. The battle of Waterloo wiped out all my achievements. But there is one thing that will not be forgotten. It will be immortal, and that is me." of the Civil Code.”
Therefore, William's future is closely related to Heracles.
