The epic of the gods is a black stone slab, rectangular, with golden words imprinted with divine power on it, and the faint light flows.
The sun is shining brightly outside the window.
The moment the stone box was opened, a singing-like sound sounded in everyone's ears.
"The highest god is the God of Heaven. He is the father of the gods. The divine power covering the sky makes him nearly immortal. However, he is debauched and cruel and is the source of trouble!"
A deep and powerful voice shook the eardrums in the form of divine power fluctuations.
Everyone's expression changed when they heard this.
To say that the father of the gods was lewd and cruel was disrespectful to the Macedonians who believed in the gods and used them to gain favor and control power.
The epic of the gods actually records blasphemous remarks? !
When everyone was shocked, Huo Qubing looked at Perseus IV meaningfully: "You have also heard this content, do you still want to read it?"
Perseus' face was calm, but the fire hidden in his eyes only increased.
He seemed not surprised by the content of the epic of the gods and nodded solemnly.
Huo Qubing reached into the stone box and took out the black slate.
The stone tablet recording the epics of the gods was only as big as a palm when placed in the box, but after it was taken out, it suddenly grew to almost a foot long and nearly two inches thick.
The writing on the board is smaller than a grain of rice.
Perseus IV promoted the destiny of the country and formed an invisible barrier to separate him and Huo Qubing from others.
Things at the level of the epic of the gods must be viewed secretly, not watched in a crowd.
"Sing high! Praise the gods! Praise them for the war they brought to the world and the classes they established. They are high above!"
The content at the beginning seems to be somewhat ironic.
"His wrath brings endless suffering to all living beings, driving the strong souls of warriors into the underworld, while their bodies become the food of the inferior..."
"God feels very ashamed and angry, because when mortals encounter disasters, they always blame God for their sins!
Don't they know that it was they who went beyond the rules of fate and caused disaster!
Like poor Egilto! He had sex with the wife of the son of Mikis and killed the son of Mikis.
Although he clearly knew that the consequences of doing so would bring disaster..."
Huo Qubing blinked his eyes. The content of this epic also includes gossip about God's parents, gossip, and gossip?
Because the content of the epic is imprinted by divine power, one does not need to be proficient in ancient Greek texts to understand its meaning.
After the slate is taken out, the content changes every twelve breaths, creating a new chapter.
Sometimes it’s a painting, sometimes it’s handwriting.
"They were in the abyss, in the beautiful palace, enjoying delicious food, holding a divine meeting, gathering the most beautiful creatures in the world, and not allowing them to wear clothes. The purpose was to sow the seeds of God, in order to reproduce and expand the divine genealogy...
Anyone chosen by Him will be given His divine name, regardless of status, including His brothers, sisters, or wives of heirs. "
This last sentence contains too much information.
The lives of the gods are colorful, with delicious food and beauties coming in turns...
Compared with the content, the name of the epic of the gods itself is more like an irony.
There are indeed praises to the gods and epic poems praising their great achievements in the chapters, but not many.
Some of it is the use of the power controlled by God, and most of it is satire, mocking the gods.
These contents look a bit like the diary of a certain god!
“It was He who sent a vicious plague in the army, devouring the lives of the soldiers, just because you insulted his priest Chryses...
They look down on all living beings in the sky, holding golden scepters in their hands... The incantation on the scepter can summon lightning and maintain their dignity. Lightning spell: Father in heaven, please give me the power of destruction and turn my enemies into ashes..."
Seeing this, Perseus perked up and chanted in a low voice, trying to repeat the spell to summon lightning to see the effect and power.
The epic of the gods has always been a mythical creature in the legends of Macedonia, Rome, and even the entire Mediterranean countries, recording the secrets of the gods.
It was also the source of Alexander the Great's power.
Alexander personally endorsed it, so after his death, people have been looking for this mythical classic for two hundred years.
At this time, Perseus discovered to his dismay that the power of lightning was not activated.
The spell is ineffective?
He glanced to the side and saw a flash of lightning-like light growing in the Eastern commander's hand, coiling like the projection of a lightning spear.
Perseus IV was stunned: "Commander...you have mastered the power of lightning by reading the epics of the gods?"
"no."
Huo Qubing casually denied it.
It would be nice if it wasn't... Perseus thought to himself.
This kind of face-to-face comparison between you and me is both hurtful and insulting.
The two continued to read the epic of the gods. After twelve breaths, the content changed and a new chapter appeared, mentioning war.
Perseus also knows military matters, so he watches carefully.
It describes the battles between gods and gods, and there are light spots on the stone slab, corresponding to the arrangement and changes of the military formations.
Including the incantations used by the gods to bless the tribes.
Perseus tried to recite war spells again, but found them too mysterious and obscure to remember any of them, let alone apply them.
With the experience just now, he couldn't help but go see Huo Qubing again.
The Eastern commander spread his hands, and a battlefield seemed to emerge from his palms.
Following the content on the slate, the two armies faced each other on the battlefield, and the tribes formed formations, showing endless changes.
Perseus didn't understand the description in the epic of the gods, but when he saw the changes in the military formation in Huo Qubing's hands, he felt enlightened.
The king pursed his lips, feeling helpless.
The chapters on the stone tablet have changed a total of twelve times, corresponding to twelve different main gods, describing their wars and daily behaviors. Although the whole chapter is satirical, there is also a lot of precious content.
Contains three picture scrolls, involving the practice of 'god'.
The most valuable ones are two of them, with Alexander's annotations.
Of the twelve changes in the entire epic of the gods, three are blank.
"Three blank chapters are lost chapters..." Perseus whispered.
When the epic of the gods changed for the last time, a bloody divine spear appeared.
Blood dripped from the divine spear and gathered into ancient Greek words: God, can be killed!
"A large part of the content of this article has been erased."
Huo Qubing sent his power into the slate, and the content of his last article changed, and another blank slate page appeared.
Miraculously, when it appeared, the entire stone slab turned into a bright red blood color.
"The commander-in-chief means that there are thirteen chapters in this epic of the gods. In addition to the missing parts, there is also a hidden chapter in the end. Based on the analysis of the bloody battle gun, the last chapter is likely to record... killing... …The way to kill a god!”
Just saying this sentence, for the Macedonian leader who believed in gods and relied on gods to obtain strength, felt a tingling pain in his eyebrows, as if he had triggered some kind of taboo.
"Gods can be killed...who wrote the epic of the gods?" Huo Qubing asked.
The King of Macedonia: "It is rumored that it is one of the twelve main gods. No one knows which one it is."
"Maybe there is a thirteenth god. He is a betrayer."
"However, I won't guess too much about the gods of the West."
Huo Qubing put away the epic of the gods.
The King of Macedonia was recalling what he had just seen.
The reason why he proposed to watch it together was because of his amazing memory.
Although the epic of the gods cannot be copied, he thought he could remember all the parts he had read.
However, after reading it, I wanted to recall the content of the epic, but all I was left with was chaotic memories.
The contents of the epic collided, melted, and turned into chaos in his memory.
In the end, he only remembered three paragraphs, one of which was God's lace and of little value. The other two articles are about Huo Qubing, the lightning he evolved, and the military formation.
The Macedonian king's thoughts moved slightly, and he suddenly understood.
Only by understanding the true meaning of the epic of the gods can we remember the mastered content, and the rest of it will not leave an impression after reading it.
Therefore, Alexander wanted to take the epics of the gods with him so that he could check them at any time.
And how much does the commander of the Eastern Legion understand?
The two times I paid attention to him, his understanding was obviously correct... Is he a favored person of the gods? He can so easily decipher the obscure and confusing contents of the epics of the gods.
"Let's go and see your treasury."
Huo Qubing's voice interrupted Perseus IV's thoughts.
Finally, Huo Qubing, Bai Nanyu and Gongsun Hong, accompanied by the country's leader Perseus, entered the Macedonian treasury.
It was a hidden space located in the palace that required the king to open it with his scepter.
The collections on display are dazzling.
Huo Qubing chose five pieces as agreed in advance, one for each of his wife and concubine, and Bai Nanyu chose one for herself.
Gongsun Hong also took one.
The Macedonian king twitched with distress.
The treasury is indeed the foundation left by Alexander the Great's conquests of countless lands, and there are many good things.
Its level of wealth is comparable to that of the Han Dynasty treasury.
When Huo Qubing finished taking his things and left, he thought that after going online with Macedonia, the treasury would be his own, and he would come back later.
After emerging from the treasury, he prepared to leave Macedonia.
"Commander, so that you can keep in touch with us at any time, I would like to appoint Afti and Rodi, the brightest pearls of Macedonia, to accompany you, how about it?" Perseus IV said.
You're trying to trick me into a honey trap... Huo Qubing glanced at the two blond beauties.
Luo Di was a little shy, his sea-blue eyes closed, and he timidly looked at Huo Qubing. Avti couldn't see the change in her expression.
"Macedonia is in the midst of employing people. Let them stay and we will deal with other battles after the war."
Huo Qubing stretched out his hand, and ripples appeared in the space in front of his eyes.
The twelve stone pillars supporting the temple were pushed out from the divine palace.
They were contained by the power of the Divine Mansion, and were only a group about a foot in size. The divine spear sank into the top of one of the stone pillars.
These twelve stone pillars have been preliminarily refined by the Divine Palace and separated for the Macedonians to use first and then take back after the battle.
On this day, there were twelve more stone pillars outside the Macedonian Royal Palace. The rays of light were connected to each other and converged into a huge dome, protecting the Macedonian Royal Capital within it.
The divine power it affects is so great that the fluctuations can be felt hundreds of miles away.
This change was discovered by the Roman army that had advanced three hundred miles away from the Macedonian capital.
They quickly reported the news to the Roman center.
Far away in the capital of Rome, two temple attendants in the Senate had just returned and brought back Cicero's body.
"High Priest, we can't find out the true origin of the person who killed Cicero." said the injured temple attendant.
The Roman high priest was also the chief senator of the Senate.
He had a withered face, wore a divine robe with dark red stripes, and stood barefoot in front of Cicero's body.
The corpse was sealed by divine power and still maintained the appearance of the moment before death.
“We used all available means, including using the name of God, the eye of insight, breath tracing, etc., but none of them worked.
The other party's power is probably only inferior to you, the high priest who has received the highest divine favor. "
"We suspect... that he is a worldly deity (demigod)."
The high priest lowered his head and pointed to Cicero's body: "God said that everything you have seen, everything you have spoken about, and everything you resented will be seen and heard by God after your death."
The next moment, the long-dead Cicero opened and closed his jaw, making the sound of bones that were stiff but were rubbing against each other after death.
The muscles on his face that had lost elasticity were forcibly pulled apart, and he opened his mouth with difficulty. A low and vague voice came out of his throat: "Foreigners..."
This was his first impression when he saw Huo Qubing and the others.
Outsiders... The high priest slowly turned his head and looked to the east.
Thousands of miles away in the direction of his gaze, Huo Qubing was also looking to the west.
At this moment, the two sides looked at each other as if they were thousands of miles apart.
Huo Qubing had just left the Macedonian capital, and behind him, more than 3,000 Han troops rode like flying, heading east.
He withdrew his gaze, took out the Concentric Lotus Leaf, and said, "Let's begin."
Ps: Thank you for everyone’s votes and comments.
