Chapter 65 Aphrodite, Queen of the Gods
The Asopas River not only irrigates the plains on both sides, but is also the natural dividing line between the Attica Peninsula and the Thebes region.
Roy swam to the north bank of the Asopus River with a piece of wood in his arms, and immediately chased Cadmus and others.
In the woods to the south of an oval plateau.
As soon as Roy walked into the woods, he heard fierce shouts of killing coming from ahead.
Following the killing cry to the center of the woods, Roy opened his eyes in shock and saw Cadmus and his 300 soldiers being surrounded by about 600 people using wooden spear weapons.
These people who use wooden spear weapons are obviously local tribesmen.
Not only did they use wooden spears as weapons, but they also wore ordinary coarse cloth robes instead of armor. They looked like a group of ordinary people who had been recruited temporarily.
Although the tribesmen had a numerical advantage, Cadmus's soldiers cooperated tacitly and were not afraid of death, so they were not at a disadvantage in the battle.
As the hero [Enemy of a Hundred], Cadmus was also fighting with the leader of the tribesmen at this time.
What surprised Roy was that the leader of the tribesmen not only had the same strength as Cadmus, but was also a beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes.
"The leader of this group of tribesmen is actually a girl, and she is also a hero [Hundred Enemies]——"
The beautiful blonde girl who was fighting Cadmus at this time had her dazzling long golden hair tied into a single ponytail with a black hairband. She was wearing a white cotton robe, and her small feet were wearing black strappy sandals made of animal skin.
Her weapon was a bronze war spear. As she fought fiercely with Cadmus, a solemn expression gradually appeared on the delicate, doll-like face of the beautiful blonde girl.
Because although the beautiful blonde girl and Cadmus are both heroes [Hundred Enemies], she is still a girl, and her physical strength is naturally weaker than that of Cadmus, who is a man.
Cadmus was obviously aware of this, and he teased the blonde girl while fighting with ease.
"You really look like the daughter of the goddess Aphrodite! If you don't want to be harmed, surrender to me, become my wife, and dedicate your tribe to me!"
"Outlander, I haven't lost to you yet!"
The beautiful blonde girl gritted her teeth and stared at Cadmus.
"This land is protected by the great Earth Goddess. I will defeat you invaders with the help of the Earth Goddess. The great goddess who has been protecting the Thebes area, please lend me your power!"
Bang bang bang bang——
Following the prayers of the beautiful blond girl, a roar like a dragon or a snake came from the distant Mount Helicon.
Roy turned his head to look at the top of Mount Helicon, and saw a huge black snake flying over from the top of Mount Helicon.
When this giant black snake, which was a hundred meters long, flew over the woods, her body instantly transformed into a black-haired goddess about ten meters tall, wearing a black dress.
The goddess's long black hair hanging down around her waist is tied together with a golden hairband, a golden belt is tied around her waist, and she wears golden strappy sandals on her beautiful ankles.
Seeing the black-haired goddess' perfect face that was too beautiful to be described in words, Roy held his breath for a moment and his mind went blank.
As if aware of Roy's gaze, the black-haired goddess glanced at where Roy was, and then looked at the beautiful blonde girl with a pair of golden eyes.
Invisible divine power is released from the eyes of the black-haired goddess, and is continuously injected into the body of the beautiful blonde girl.
With the help of the black-haired goddess, the blond beauty immediately increased her combat power, and in turn suppressed Cadmus.
Although Cadmus could not see the black-haired goddess descending over the battlefield, he also knew that the beautiful blonde girl had greatly increased her power and must have received the assistance of the Earth Goddess.
"Great goddess Aphrodite - Queen of the Gods of the Eastern Mediterranean! Please lend me your power! If I can win, I will definitely fulfill my promise to you and let the land I conquer become yours.
New territory.”
As Cadmus prayed loudly, a golden stream of light flew from the distant Eastern Mediterranean to the Thebes area and landed over the woods where the fair-haired girl and Cadmus were fighting.
After the golden streamer disappeared, a goddess with brilliant blond hair appeared above the woods, confronting the black-haired goddess.
The goddess Aphrodite has a pair of white divine wings on her back. She is wearing golden armor and holds a golden divine spear in her right hand. She is obviously a powerful female war goddess.
Seeing the posture of the goddess Aphrodite, Roy immediately understood why Cadmus said that the beautiful blonde girl looked like the daughter of the goddess Aphrodite.
Because the beautiful blonde girl not only has blond hair like the goddess Aphrodite, but she is also a strong female warrior.
The goddess Aphrodite looked down at the battle between the blond girl and Cadmus with her beautiful blue eyes. Cadmus immediately received her divine assistance and instantly reversed the battle situation suppressed by the blond girl.
After assisting Cadmus, the goddess Aphrodite looked at the black-haired goddess and said.
"Are you the local god? I am Aphrodite from the Eastern Mediterranean, the great queen of the gods. People from different regions and nationalities have different pronunciations. Some call me Anat, while others call me Anat.
I am called Astarte, Astarte, Astaroth and other names. I am the invincible goddess of war, Venus, love, beauty, thunder, revenge, healing,
The Protector of Navigation. In addition to these gods, I have many gods. Even if I don’t name them one by one, you can understand my greatness!”
"I am Mnemosyne, the earth goddess from the Thebes region."
The black-haired goddess looked at Aphrodite expressionlessly and said.
"I can see that your essence is the goddess of war with the sky attribute. Your numerous gods must have been absorbed from other gods!"
"My birthplace is the Phoenician region, and the east of my territory is the Mesopotamian plain, so I absorbed some godhead from Ishtar, the queen of the gods who declined in the Mesopotamia.
He also absorbed some godhood from me, so Ishtar and I became sister gods with similar natures. Some stupid humans who don’t understand gods confuse me with Ishtar, and even regard us as the same god.
Later, I conquered the Egyptian region with another Phoenician god, and absorbed many gods from the lion goddess in the Egyptian region. Now I am the lord who rules the Phoenician region and the Egyptian region, above all the gods.
the queen of.”
"Then you are indeed amazing!"
Mnemosyne said with a calm expression.
"But this is the Thebes area far away from Phoenicia and Egypt. Your authority as the queen of the gods has no influence here. If you don't want your beloved human Cadmus to die here, take him with you.
Get off my territory!"
"This is not okay!"
Aphrodite said with an excited smile full of fighting spirit.
"Cadmus has lost his territory in his hometown, so he wants to seize a new territory here. I also want to conquer this land and turn your territory into mine. If you surrender to me now, great Ah
Phrodite can allow you to continue to exist on this land as my subordinate god."
