Chapter 1997: Evil Ways (Please give me a monthly ticket! Please subscribe!!!)

"Is he...rebellious?" Kai felt a little uncomfortable watching it. Many styles and makeups seem okay when you watch them on TV, but once you see them in real life, you will find them particularly eye-catching.

For example, now, looking at the faceless guitar man who is still playing the guitar in front of him... Kai doesn't know what to say.

"Hahaha..." Aphrodite disagreed with this, "It's just a hobby."

After saying that, Aphrodite shouted to her son who was still immersed in playing the guitar: "Okay! Eros! Come meet my friend!"

clang!

The guitar stopped playing.

Then the guitar-playing man in red long-sleeved shirt and long trousers jumped off the exclusive chariot.

He did not change into Eros's original appearance, and still appeared in front of Aphrodite as a faceless guitar man.

"Hahaha! You guys are finally here. I've been looking for you here for a long time."

The relationship between gods and spirits is different from the ethical relationship imagined by humans. Gods are more independent. It does not mean that if you are my parents, I must obey you in everything. The relationship between gods and children is more independent. If the concepts and duties of parents and children are consistent, then there is nothing to say. A superior-subordinate relationship is naturally formed.

Like Ares, the god of war, Ares is the god of war, mutiny, slaughter and riot. He is described as "a bloodthirsty murderer and conqueror of fortified castles". He is a symbol of strength and power, bloodthirsty, bloody, and the embodiment of human scourge. He is hot-tempered and aggressive. He dances when he hears the drums of war and is intoxicated when he smells blood. Killing and fighting are his daily routine. Wherever there is a fierce battle, he immediately rushes there and cuts down without asking any questions. He looks majestic in his war clothes, wearing feathered armor on his head, leather sleeves on his arms, and holding an aggressive bronze spear. He is naturally majestic, agile, tireless, strong, and sturdy. He is also the enemy of wisdom and the scourge of mankind. He usually fights his opponents on foot, sometimes wielding his spear from a chariot with four horses (the four horses are the descendants of the north wind and a goddess of vengeance). Following him into battle were his sons Terror, Trembling, Panic and Fear, as well as his sisters Eris (mother of Discord), Enyo, the goddess of destruction, and a host of bloodthirsty demons.

His four war horses, which are said to be born from Ares and a goddess of vengeance, are named Aethon (meaning "burning"), Cornopus (meaning "riot"), Phlogios (meaning "flame"), and Phobos (meaning "terror"). Ares is usually depicted as a mighty, strong, and armored warrior. He is represented by a spear, a torch, a hound, and an eagle. It is said that he can make a deafening and miserable sound, like thousands of warriors crying; once he is injured and falls to the ground, his huge body covers an area of ​​7 hectares.

His horses, monsters, and descendants basically all felt that Ares's philosophy suited their tastes so they followed him and were considered his people.

But Eros is not like that. Eros is the son of Ares and Aphrodite, but he is closer to his mother. So the world sees them as a group. And Ares also treats him as if he has no son and doesn't care much. Similarly, Eros doesn't care much about Ares. There is no more obvious relationship between the two.

So even if Kai killed Ares, Eros didn't have any special feelings towards Kai... Ares? Oh, a former colleague, nothing special.

Of course, the root of all this can be said to be inherited from our ancestors!

You know, the Olympian gods don't believe in fatherly love and filial piety at all. This thing is wrong from the root.

The god of chaos, at the beginning of the universe, there was only Chaos, a boundless space with nothing in it. Chaos itself has the ability to reproduce life, and gave birth to Gaia, the mother of the earth, Tartarus, the god of the abyss of hell, Erebus, the god of darkness, and Nyx, the goddess of night, and the world began.

Then Gaia gave birth to Uranus, the god of the sky, Pentheus, the god of the sea, and Urrea, the goddess of the mountains. And she gave birth to the twelve Titans, three Cyclops, and three Hecatonix with Uranus. However, this union was not voluntary for Gaia. Uranus was more barbaric, and he did not like his children, and he did not allow them to be born. Gaia was very distressed, so she instigated the children to rebel against their father. Then Kronos castrated his father and became the master. Uranus cursed Kronos, you will be overthrown by your own children like me. In order to avoid this, Kronos ate every child born from his union with Rhea.

Then Rhea listened to Gaia's advice and replaced Zeus with a stone, making him the only child to survive. When Zeus grew up, he forced Cronus to spit out the child he had swallowed. The Olympians, led by Zeus, and the Titans, led by Cronus, finally won the final victory, and the defeated Titans were thrown into Tartarus. The Olympians won the right to rule.

It can be said that every change of royal power is accompanied by betrayal and bloodshed.

It is almost an Olympian tradition that an unkind father will have an unfilial son.

Legend has it that Zeus would also be overthrown by his own children.

Gaia and Uranus predicted that Metis' future children would be smart and powerful. After she gave birth to a bright-eyed daughter, she would give birth to a son who would overthrow Zeus. Zeus was afraid of the troubles that his children would bring, so he swallowed both mother and daughter while Metis was still pregnant with Athena. Zeus had a splitting headache after that, so he had to ask the god of fire Hephaestus (or Prometheus or Hermes) to split his head. As soon as he raised the axe, to the surprise of the gods, a beautiful goddess with a graceful figure and armed with a sharp weapon actually broke through Zeus' head and jumped out.

But because Metis was swallowed, she could not give birth to a second child, so Zeus could rest assured. (By the way, Metis did not die, but merged with Zeus, and from then on Zeus also had the highest wisdom. In a sense, Metis is a part of Zeus, and she can even appear to give advice to others, but Zeus should not have another child with her)

So don't expect that there will be any love between father and son in this family.

It’s just a matter of whether you get along or not.

Aphrodite and Eros had a good relationship because they got along well, which was much more reliable than those unreliable parent-child relationships.

"Is this the person you are sending over this time?"

Although Eros looked a little strange, his voice was very nice, not at all like that crazy guitarist just now.

"Yes, he is Kai, from Earth. He is Thor, from Asgard."

Aphrodite did not hide anything and spoke directly.

Eros' eyes lit up... This is not an adjective, but a practical fact, this guy's eyes really lit up.

"Earth?! You're from Earth!"

Eros grabbed Kai's hand and shook it desperately.

"Great, you must tell me about the Earth! I almost forgot what the Earth is like."

Eros was born on Earth, but he was still young at that time and was exiled into the universe before he had the chance to truly understand his hometown.

Kai didn't expect that he would actually meet an Earth fan...

"Although it's a bit wrong to say this now, I still want to know...why are you dressed like this?"

"You mean this?" Eros introduced it to Kai with great interest: "This is something our club did. What do you think? Does it look like the original? Have you seen the movie Mad Max 4: Fury Road? We are cosplaying the team of Immortal Joe in that movie! That movie is really great!"

Kai was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what the director of this movie would think when he knew that he had fans on alien planets.

Especially since this fan is a fucking god!

Instead, Thor became interested.

"That's right. I thought I was seeing things just now."

"Really?" Eros seemed to be greatly exaggerated, and he looked radiant.

"Of course! But Mad Max 5 has also been released. I wonder if you have seen it?"

Thor was just saying it casually.

Unexpectedly, Eros reacted strongly: "What? The fifth part is out?"

"Yes, it was released this year."

"Ah?! Then I'll have to wait a long time before I can see it."

Kai interrupted curiously at this time and asked, "Can you also watch Earth's movies here?"

"Yes. Why not! This is the almighty city. We have everything we want. It's just a little troublesome."

Kai asked curiously, "Can the Omnicity be connected to the Earth?"

"That's not possible. I don't know the specific reason. But after all, there are always some channels in the universe. It's just that the location of the earth is too desolate and remote, so even if there are any good things, it will take a long time to arrive."

"Where did you get that movie from?"

"I got it from a mercenary group called the Guardians of the Galaxy. These guys are good at everything except money."

Kai unexpectedly heard a familiar name.

Guardians of the Galaxy.

"Is that guy called Star-Lord?"

"Yes! Those guys are from Earth. When they first came, they were yelling there. Later they started doing business with us, but the God King doesn't like them or what they spread, so we circulate it secretly."

Kai twitched the corner of his mouth.

This bastard Star-Lord came to Earth several times and bought a lot of stuff every time, saying that it was to ease his homesickness. But this bastard actually sold those things... and at a high price.

But it also fits Star-Lord's bastard personality.

Besides… this faceless guitar guy in front of me is not a good person either. He circulates things that are clearly prohibited. But considering that he is a human trafficker, his main business is smuggling, but this thing is inseparable from smuggling.

It turns out that the little Cupid in the Pantheon is actually engaged in this kind of shady business.

"Is there no one to supervise you guys like this?" Kaido asked out of curiosity.

"In charge? Of course there are people in charge. But their role is probably... to get an extra copy?" Eros said after thinking for a while.

What the hell is this world?

Is the Pantheon so corrupt now?

Thor was also shocked. He finally understood why his father looked down on the Pantheon.

What the hell are these people?

However, Eros misunderstood their expressions and thought that he looked down on him.

So Eros said seriously: "Don't underestimate our business. There are many tricks in it. If it weren't for us, where would the Almighty City get so many low-level laborers? If it weren't for us, where would the Almighty City get so many food, drinks and entertainment?"

Kai was a little confused: "But why do you do this? You are gods! Do you need to care about these things?"

Eros glanced at his mother and found that she didn't say anything, which meant that the person in front of him was not a toy for his mother to entertain herself, but that his mother really cared about him. Otherwise, she would not have come here in person.

So he could be patient and say something.

"What are you talking about? What's wrong with God? God also needs to eat!"

Eros said it with confidence.

In a sense, gods are indeed immortal, but you cannot say that they are completely separate from matter.

After all, to put it bluntly, gods are also creatures, just a little stronger.

"Gods also have needs. We need pomp, we need pleasure, we need to maintain life. These are all needs! But if we only rely on the power of faith contributed by believers, it is not enough to maintain these!" It is indeed not enough, but this only applies to the City of Almighty.

As the center of the Pantheon.

It’s a bit like the capital, the cost of living is damn high!

If you stay in your own territory like other gods and don't come to the Almighty City, then nothing will happen. The power of faith of believers is enough.

But if you want to live a good life in the Almighty City, I'm sorry, your 'dead salary' is definitely not enough!

So find a way to make extra money!

Money is generated from the distribution of resources by the society as a whole and is formed in the transactions between social individuals. The social as a whole uses resources to trade with social individuals who work, which will inevitably produce the double increase in the use value and value of commodities. This double increase is distributed among all social individuals according to value, and the distribution method is value distribution rather than physical distribution. In this way, the ticket given by the society as a whole to social individuals has the nature of money, and once it plays a mediating role in the transactions between social individuals, it becomes money. The emergence of money is inevitable.

The currency of the Pantheon is the power of faith.

When there is demand, there is market.

If there is a market, there will naturally be people who come to make money!

Although Eros has a wide network of contacts among the gods, he is also very popular.

But to be honest, he didn't gain much faith among mortals.

Even the god of love is not considered a mainstream belief! What's more, he is just a small god of love.

If he wants to live a good life, he naturally has to find a way.

But he couldn't compete with those powerful beings in regular business, so he had to resort to crooked means.
