Chapter 288 Deucalion, the Builder of Noah's Ark
Chapter 288 Deucalion, the Builder of Noah's Ark
From the way people around him addressed the little boy, he knew the child's identity.
Deucalion, son of Prometheus!
Judging from the aura of this child, it is obvious that this child is only a demigod and has not inherited much blood from Prometheus, a high-level Titan god.
Not to mention being born a god, being called a demigod is just a nice way of sounding, he does not have the power of a true demigod at all.
Being a demigod, he is only stronger than ordinary people.
He is somewhat similar to the original him.
Su Xing moved, and walked towards the outside step by step. Each step covered a long distance.
During this period, because he used his energy, his body surface also glowed with light, looking extremely sacred.
……
Human gathering place.
In a remote and deserted place under the shade of a tree.
"Father, where have you been?"
Deucalion sat under a tree with a lost look on his face, staring blankly at the lawn in the distance.
But just when he was in a daze and missing his father, a figure suddenly appeared in his eyes.
This figure was glowing with a rich glow, his face was exquisite and extremely handsome, and his temperament was far beyond that of ordinary mortals.
"Are you... a god?"
Deucalion asked stupidly.
Apart from God, he really couldn't think of any other word to describe the being before him.
Or rather, he didn't think that any mortal could have such temperament and appearance.
As the son of Prometheus, Deucalion felt that he still had some knowledge.
Su Xing smiled when he heard this, but did not answer the question. He said directly, "Deucalion, I am your father's friend. I am here to give you some advice."
"My father's friend?" Deucalion was startled and asked hurriedly, "Do you know where my father is?"
As he spoke, his eyes were full of confusion, "Advice, what advice?"
Su Xing said calmly, "Your father probably won't show up for a while, but don't worry, God won't die, and nothing serious will happen to your father."
Deucalion thought about it and nodded, feeling that the god before him was right.
Then he asked curiously, "So, what are you going to tell me?"
As he spoke, he saw the god-like being in front of him and his expression turned serious.
"Deucalion, my advice to you is that you need to go to the mountain not far away and build a big ship, so that you can survive."
"Because... the end of humanity has come."
Hearing the mysterious voice ringing in his ears, Deucalion was stunned and asked, "The end of mankind? What does this mean?"
"And why do I need to build a big ship to survive?"
Unfortunately, Su Xing did not answer him. His figure blurred and disappeared in front of him.
Looking at the disappearing god before him, Deucalion was filled with confusion.
Because he didn't understand and was confused, he quickly stood up from the shade of the tree and ran towards where his uncle Epimetheus was.
"Uncle Epimetheus!"
When he saw Epimetheus from a distance, he waved his hands and shouted.
"It's you, Deucalion. What's wrong?"
Epimetheus, who was having a love affair with Pandora next to him, had a puzzled look in his eyes, wondering why Deucalion was looking for him.
Deucalion did not hesitate and said directly, "Uncle, I just now..."
He told Epimetheus everything about the god he had met and what he had said. As Deucalion described and narrated, Epimetheus quickly understood who he was talking about.
"It's him, the child!" thought Epimetheus.
Then, a look of astonishment appeared in his eyes, and he murmured, "Only by building a big ship can Deucalion survive?"
“Is this the end of humanity?”
What did the child mean by that?
Epimetheus was shocked and at the same time felt vaguely uneasy.
Was it something the child said casually, or was it another prophecy?
If it were a prophecy...
So why build big ships, and what does the fate of mankind mean?
His eyes were filled with confusion and puzzlement.
"Uncle?" Deucalion asked in confusion.
Epimetheus came back to his senses, looked down at Deucalion at his waist, hesitated for a moment, and then ordered:
"Deucalion, I think you should listen to the words of that god. After all, they are the words of God, and they will always be good for you."
Although He was confused and puzzled, it did not prevent Him from instructing Deucalion to do as the child said.
At the same time, in order to prevent Deucalion from being lazy, He did not mention that the child was only a demigod, and His words seemed to imply that the child was also a god.
Hearing his uncle Epimetheus say this, Deucalion nodded seriously and said, "Okay uncle, I will definitely do what the god tells me to do!"
While the two of them were talking, Pandora was confused.
What big ship is this? What can you do to survive? And is this the end of humanity?
What does this mean?
She also felt a little uneasy in her heart, and then couldn't help thinking, "If I meet Hermes, Athena, and Apollo again, I will ask them. They are the main gods and should know more than me!"
Thinking of this, she felt relieved.
……
In this way, time passed slowly.
More than ten years passed in the blink of an eye.
Deucalion grew up slowly, and Epimetheus and Pandora gave birth to a child together.
She was a girl, named Pyrrha by Epimetheus and Pandora.
As they grew up, Pyrrha and Deucalion became very close and almost inseparable.
However, there was one thing that puzzled Pyrrha. Every morning, Deucalion would get up, take his tools and go to a nearby hilltop to build a large wooden boat.
This morning, Pyrrha couldn't help but ask again.
"Brother Deucalion, you work so hard every day to build that huge ship that you don't know what it's used for. Don't you feel tired?"
Deucalion, who had grown into a young man, heard this and said with a smile, "This is the advice given to me by a certain god. Of course I must complete it!"
"But it doesn't look like it's going to be of any use," Pyrrha muttered.
As the two of them were rushing towards the mountain, they met quite a few people along the way.
There was a whisper of discussion.
"Is it Deucalion? Is this guy building that weird ship in the mountains again?"
"I really don't understand what Deucalion is doing. He is building a ship that he can't use, and he built it on a mountain. How can it be used one day?"
"I don't know. Maybe Deucalion is crazy?"
"Once that Deucalion guy finishes building it, he'll realize that the ship is useless and he'll definitely regret it!"
Ryan and many other humans looked at Deucalion's back, feeling confused and amused.
