Chapter 2007 Accident(1/2)
Forced by life.
Although the Goddess of Love is one of the twelve main gods of Olympus, there are not many groups that truly believe in her. Aphrodite is divided into two goddesses, namely the goddess of pure love and the goddess of sexual desire and the protection of prostitutes.
God: Aphrodite is "Aphrodite Urania" who represents noble spiritual love in heaven, and "Aphrodite Pende" who represents vulgar carnal love that everyone can have on earth.
Moss".
There may be temples dedicated to the God of Love in every city, but no city-state would regard her belief as its main belief.
In contrast, her ex-husband Hephaestus gained a wider range of beliefs. Hephaestus was good at building temples and making various weapons and metal supplies. He was highly skilled and was known as the ancestor of craftsmen, as well as forging.
God of patronage. In worlds such as Lemnos and Sicily (after the gods came to the universe, they liked to name newly discovered planets after the place names they used before on earth), they even respected him as the god of earth and fire. It is said that he was the god of earth and fire.
There was a roar and a volcano erupting, it was him who was forging iron.
He has city-states that specifically believe in him, and there are quite a few of them.
To put it bluntly, love may be precious, but it is not indispensable.
As a foil to the little god of love, Eros has an even smaller chance of being specifically believed in. In this way, he cannot gain much power of faith. If it is just to maintain his life, he can live very comfortably...
But not in the Almighty City.
Can the cost of living in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou be comparable to that of small counties on the seventh and eighth tiers?
With a monthly salary of three thousand, you can live very comfortably in a small county town on the seventh or eighth tier. But why don't you try earning three thousand a month in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou... After the rent is paid, there will be nothing left.
Eros has a monthly salary of almost three thousand. It is very difficult to live a good life in the Almighty City... Well, if you define this good as food and clothing, then you are just thinking blindly.
No matter how depressed they are, they cannot be like this. The gods are seriously struggling to survive, which means they have a huge number of followers, an unparalleled divine domain, and endless treasures and rare items.
According to them, gods must have cards!
But maintaining these cards requires money!
If you can just settle down and be a rural god, you can live a happy life. Many gods don't stay in the Almighty City. It would be great to be a local emperor in your own territory.
There are even some gods who live more happily in their own territory than in the Almighty City, such as Hera.
Of course, there are only a very small number of such gods.
But as long as you can endure loneliness, it is generally impossible to live a bad life.
It's a pity that Eros is a restless lord. He is naughty by nature and likes to be lively. He will only appear in the busiest places. He will not stay calmly in the countryside.
To put it simply, he represents the most intense and impulsive side of love, and it is impossible to stay quietly. He may not be interested in so-called pleasure, but he needs to maintain his dignity. So...it is all forced by life.
Not to mention anything else, just the things they use to play cosplay cannot be obtained casually. You know, in order to limit the awakening of believers and prevent them from losing their respect for the gods, the Pantheon strictly prohibits technological progress.
.
And most of the cosmic civilizations that can trade with them have passed the age of using internal combustion engines. In the eyes of civilizations that can trade with the Pantheon, these modified vehicles are just like modern people seeing stone tools from the Stone Age, except
It's hard for them to get this stuff in museums.
And even on Earth, these things are not cheap. Although these things look weird, they all require special customization. If the modification technology is not good enough, this thing cannot be driven. The most typical example is the car of Immortal Joe.
"Jig Stallion", as the biggest villain in the film and the undisputed king of "Three Wasteland Towns", Old Joe's car must be the most domineering. Therefore, in terms of body design, director George Miller ingeniously used two 1959
The Cadillac DeVille coupe was spliced together to form a huge two-body body.
Its suspension and wheels are all specially modified, otherwise it won't be able to bear the weight of the body at all, and its shock absorbers... The price of a set of this thing is probably enough to buy a sports car, and the average engine
It cannot withstand this kind of 'behemoth' and also needs the best engine.
Including the modification fee... the price of one of these things on earth is enough to buy several famous brand sports cars.
Then send it to the Almighty City...you can calculate the cost yourself.
So even if these people play, they play in a different way and it is very expensive.
…
After having Eros, a group of people will be much more successful.
When they left the lower city, the guards were no longer surprised that Eros came in and out of the lower city. As for Kai and the others, they naturally mingled among a group of Eros' followers. The guards ignored this... It seems that Eros is engaged in smuggling.
It's an open secret in the Almighty City.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with saying that.
After all, there is no way to get specific data on how much faith Eros can receive, but everyone is not stupid and can make a rough guess with a little estimation.
And what about Eros’ expenses?
Even in the Almighty City, this guy's expenses are among the best. Although he has an awesome mother who can subsidize him. But for the gods, the parent-child relationship is relatively independent. Maybe parents
There will be some subsidies for the children, but it is absolutely limited. No one stipulates who among the gods has the obligation to support whom. As much as Eros is a prodigal, he can't afford the subsidies even if he has ten mothers.
So everyone knows how he makes money.
However, Eros has a wide network of contacts and everyone likes him, so no one will deliberately embarrass him.
Secondly, Eros is not responsible for such things as wool harvesting. Everyone has his own way of getting money. If you reported Eros, what if you report me in the future?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It is not that there was no such kind of righteous person in the past, but he will soon be driven out of the Almighty City by other gods... Damn
!Everyone is just here to make a living. You are noble and awesome. That’s just right. Get out of here and don’t stay with the rest of us.
Furthermore...how the hell do you know that the big guys above don't know these things?
For example, the relationship between Eros and Zeus is very good... yes, it is as good as everyone thinks. After all, love does not even distinguish between races, men and women. What's more, Eros is Zeus's weapon to pick up girls!
He basically knows everything about what Eros is doing!
But did he take care of it?
Never cared about it at all.
So Kai and his party entered the Almighty City without anyone taking care of them.
At first, Kai and Thor both thought that they would be very conspicuous, and they also thought about covering it up, but when they actually entered the Almighty City, they realized... cover it up! This is simply a grand alliance of races in the entire universe!
There are all kinds of strange things, including promoted people and living people.
It was very lively.
"Don't worry! This is the Almighty City, the greatest place in the universe. Countless people come and go here every day, and no one will check at all. Especially the people I brought with me! It's even more unimpeded!"
Eros said carelessly.
He didn't know the background of the people his mother brought with her.
He doesn't care either.
It is better not to know something than to know it.
"But it's a little difficult for you to go to the Temple of Omniscient."
Eros heard about the purpose of these two people coming here. They wanted to find something and needed to enter the Temple of Omniscience.
The Temple of Omniscient is the place where the Pantheon stores knowledge. The gods put all the knowledge they know and collect there.
This is also one of the most important buildings in the Almighty City.
There are even several gods stationed there for a long time.
"Why? I heard that the Temple of Omniscience is open to everyone."
Kai asked curiously.
"Recently... right? The situation has been a bit tense. Many gods have come to the Almighty City, and it's a mess. A few days ago, there was a lunatic who got drunk and went to the Temple of Omniscient to cause trouble... No, the Temple of Omniscience is going to be renovated again.
Not open to the public.”
Although Eros didn't say it clearly, both Thor and Kai understood it.
It's because of Gorr the God-Slayer.
To be honest, neither Thor nor Kai had much emotion towards the appearance of Gal. Aren't they just bad guys? There is no shortage of bad guys these days.
But for the Pantheon.
This thing is not a concept.
There is no doubt that the gods are mortal. Although the gods always advertise that they are omniscient, omnipotent, and immortal. But in fact, there is always a gap between the claims and the reality. Just like everyone is saying, hard work will lead to success.
return.
But in fact, there are many cases where there is no reward at all for hard work, and you may even lose money.
It’s even normal for hard work to be unrewarded. Of course, if you don’t work hard, there will definitely be no reward, unless your dad is very rich!
If the gods want to gain faith, they always have to show some strength.
The author agrees that the reason monotheism can defeat polytheism on earth is because the gods of monotheism are high enough!
Most of the gods of polytheism are full of humanity, whether it is Nordic mythology or ancient Greek mythology. This is true for gods. Gods are full of humanity, and they also have flaws.
Most of the gods of polytheism die, fail, and even cry.
For example, Hera, she conspired with Poseidon, Athena, and Apollo to overthrow the rule of Zeus. They swarmed up to Zeus while he was sleeping and tied him tightly with a rope made of rawhide so that he could not move. Zeus threatened
They wanted to execute them immediately, but they had already placed Zeus's thunder and lightning out of his reach, so they laughed mockingly at Zeus's threat. When they were celebrating their victory, they thought of the reason.
To be continued...
