Chapter 416 The power of destiny!
Chapter 416 The power of destiny!
Su Xing saw a human city-state and what was happening in the human city-state.
In an instant, He knew what the city-state was called.
Thebes!
Of course, although in His eyes it was just a city-state, a small city, and its area was only equivalent to the size of a modern medium-sized county-level city, it was actually a kingdom.
cough cough...
Kingdom of Thebes.
Looking at this city-state kingdom, Su Xing was not too surprised. The kingdoms in Greece were almost all of this size.
His eyes turned to the royal palace of Thebes, and he saw a young woman who was giving birth in the palace.
Alcmene, mother of the hero Hercules.
Su Xing saw with his own eyes that the woman gave birth to a pair of male twins.
One was born quickly, while the other took a long time to be born.
As a god, Su Xing could tell the difference between the twins at a glance.
One of them was a pure mortal, with a weak body.
The other one is a half-human, half-god, a demigod with the blood of gods, and he was very strong when he was born.
Of course, although there are some differences between the two of them, it does not mean that one of them did not inherit the blood of God, but that the fathers of these two children are completely two different people.
Among them, Hercules’ father is naturally a god.
As for the other, his father was a mortal.
This situation is relatively rare, but it does not mean that it does not exist. Such cases have occurred in modern times with advanced technology.
Thinking about it, looking at the sweaty young woman on the bed and the two babies of different bloodlines, Su Xing's eyes showed pity, and pictures flashed through his eyes.
What flashed across the screen was this woman’s experience.
Alcmene, the granddaughter of the hero Perseus, was very beautiful.
Although she cannot be compared with Pandora and the like, she is also a famous beauty.
Soon.
She married her cousin, Amphitryon, King of Thebes.
However, on her wedding day, she made a condition to her husband.
During the war, her brother was killed by the enemy. Alcmene proposed that she would only sleep with Amphitryon if he avenged her brother.
Amphitryon immediately agreed to the request made by his wife Alcmene, and soon after his marriage, in order to fulfill his promise, he led his troops to an battle to avenge his wife's brother.
Unfortunately, not long after Amphitryon set out on the expedition, Alcmene was targeted by Zeus.
At Zeus' command, the moon's chariot slowed down and the sun's chariot stopped rising.
He even ordered Hypnos, the god of sleep, to put all of humanity into a deep sleep.
When all was ready, Zeus transformed himself into Amphitryon and entered Alcmene's bedroom.
As soon as Amphitryon entered the room, Alcmene, who thought her husband had returned from the war, immediately went to greet him.
"Amphitryon" vividly told her how he won a great victory, how he personally killed the murderer who killed her brother, and completed the revenge plan she had been looking forward to.
Alcmene was overjoyed to learn that her revenge had been taken. She hugged her husband's neck, without any doubt that the man she was hugging and kissing was not her husband, but Zeus, the king of gods.
Alcmene kept her promise and consummated her marriage with her "husband". It was not until the fourth day that Helios' chariot began to shine again.
When dawn came to the earth, Zeus immediately left secretly and returned to Mount Olympus.
As soon as Zeus left, Amphitryon, who had successfully avenged himself, returned triumphantly the next day. He was eager to tell his wife the good news that his revenge had been taken, and at the same time he expected his wife to fulfill her promise.
When he walked into the bedroom, he saw his wife sleeping soundly due to exhaustion. Even when he got into bed, his wife had almost no reaction.
Amphitryon was so excited that he couldn't wait to consummate the marriage with his wife. When the passion ended, Alcmene gently pushed her husband away, exclaimed and scolded with a smile: "You are really amazing. You don't want to tell me about your glorious record of successful revenge again, do you?"
Amphitrite didn't understand what his wife was saying at all, and he felt something was wrong.
However, he didn't take it too seriously and just thought it was an illusion.
Su Xing was in deep thought.
As for these twins, why was one born so early and the other so late, and why was there a difficult birth...
During his observation, he discovered that there was a hidden divine force targeting Alcmene, causing the other child to be born several hours late.
As for who the owner of this divine power was, he realized it in just a moment. It was Hera, the Queen of Heaven.
Su Xing was almost sure why Hera did this.
My cheap father Zeus should have spoken an oracle to the gods on Mount Olympus.
The first child born in the direct line of today's hero Perseus will become the king of Thebes.
Hera, who had long noticed that something was wrong, was extremely jealous and naturally did not want Zeus to get his wish. She secretly obstructed and distorted the fate that Hercules was supposed to have, causing another child, Eurystheus, to be born prematurely.
Hercules, on the other hand, was born several hours late, lost the oracle and the throne, and his mother, Alcmene, went through several hours of pain before giving birth to him.
Looking at what is happening now, Su Xing is not surprised at all and does not find it strange at all.
This was Hera's routine operation. Not only him, but even Apollo and others had experienced similar sufferings when they were born, and Hera had secretly harmed them.
It would be abnormal if you had never been harmed by Hera.
Under Su Xing's gaze, Alcmene and Amphitryon named the two children.
The mortal one was named Eurystheus.
The half-human, half-god is called Alcides, which means son of strength and strong one.
Hearing this name, Su Xing was slightly startled, "Isn't it Heracles?"
As a god, it only took Su Xing a moment to remember what happened.
Hercules' original name was indeed Alcides, or it could be said to be Alcides.
The name Hercules was changed later and was not given to him at birth.
After thinking it through, Su Xing didn't care too much about the other person's name, as long as it was Hercules.
"Hercules has been born. It seems that the invasion of Olympus by the giants is really going to happen..."
Su Xing shook his head, and a sense of crisis emerged in his heart.
We must go to the underworld and find reincarnation as soon as possible!
At the same time, He couldn't help but feel a little worried about the fate of Chaos' world.
Despite His influence, some things that are supposed to happen will happen.
It is no wonder that in Greek mythology, some people and heroes tried to change their fate after receiving prophecies, but were often mocked by fate.
The things they did and the changes they made just happened to bring about destiny, and no matter how they resisted, things would proceed as fate and prophecy had said.
