Chapter 472 Gods!
Chapter 472 Gods!
All eyes were focused on the mysterious young man in the audience, including Socrates and others.
“This trial is very interesting.”
Su Xing looked at Socrates with interest, "I think you don't disbelieve in God. You just don't believe in us Olympian gods. You only believe in the gods in your heart that you recognize."
"In a sense, you are more like a pagan."
Socrates fell silent after hearing this, and had no intention of refutation, because what the young man said was true.
However, because he was focused on the problem, he did not think much about it, but Anytus, the official on the stage, noticed two key words in the words of the young man in front of him.
He asked in surprise, "We?"
"Didn't you just say that you don't believe in us Olympian gods..."
His voice was stammering, his eyes were wide, and the incredible thought in his mind was becoming stronger and stronger.
"You..." Anytus' tone was full of surprise.
At this moment, he hurriedly shook his head, trying to drive the terrible thoughts out of his mind.
"When this young man mentioned the Olympian gods, the "we" should refer to all of us, not..."
He was imagining and comforting himself here, and the poets Miletus and Lycan, even Socrates and some civilians who were listening to him were all stunned at this moment.
At first they didn't understand what Anytus was saying. But after thinking about it carefully, they were shocked and realized the problem with the grammar of the young man in front of them.
"You..." Socrates' face was full of surprise.
The next second, he shook his head, feeling that his idea was a little ridiculous.
The gods of Olympus?
How can it be……
Even the inner god that he recognized and believed in, he did not think that the other party really existed, but rather believed that it was some kind of revelation or intuition.
So at this moment, he also found it funny that this thought popped up in his mind.
Not only him, but Plato and others present also thought of this, and then felt ridiculous for their own thoughts.
How could the boy in front of me be an Olympian...
Just as they were thinking this.
They suddenly saw that the young man smiled at them, and a change occurred in his body immediately.
At the same time, they only felt countless hallucinations appearing before their eyes.
It was as if I saw the sky full of ice and snow, the solar eclipse, and the process of reincarnation at the same time...
They seemed to see the rules, and also seemed to see a part of the indescribable world.
The dazzling sunlight appeared, like the first ray of dawn breaking through the darkness.
The boy's blue and white clothes quickly faded away and turned into a Greek-style golden coat.
Strands of runes and divine characters are all over this divine robe, which is extremely gorgeous.
In the sunshine, the boy's appearance and temperament began to undergo a metaphysical transformation.
Although the sunlight was so bright that they could not see the boy's true appearance, the little bit of his features that was revealed in the haze was enough to make them lose their minds and become obsessed.
I was fascinated by the boy's metaphysical appearance that transcended the mortal world, and I was also fascinated by the knowledge that kept pouring into my mind when I looked at this boy.
Scholars such as Socrates and Plato were immediately stunned, their eyes filled with obsession.
However, when the young man in front of them floated up, they quickly came to their senses when they saw this bizarre existence suspended in the air with the sun's rays all over its body.
At this moment, their faces were dull.
On the stage.
"You...you are a god?!" official Anytus stammered.
His mind went blank.
Just a moment ago, he was still comforting himself, thinking that his previous thoughts were ridiculous. However, the fact is, he guessed right?!
Socrates, Plato and others not far away, as well as thousands of civilians, could not believe what they saw.
next second.
"Oh, gods!"
Cries of fear rang out one after another.
When they realized who this person was, they trembled all over.
Some fell back and sat down on the ground, while others fell to the ground face down.
However, without exception, everyone lowered their heads in a hurry, not daring to look up or look at it.
They knew that looking directly at God was a very dangerous thing.
Apart from that, at this moment, apart from the shock in their hearts that the gods had actually descended, the rest was regret and fear.
"God, please forgive us for not recognizing you!"
A strong middle-aged man hurriedly explained and fell to his knees in fear.
His action was like a falling domino, instantly causing a chain reaction, and one person after another fell to their knees on the ground.
Soon, everyone fell to the ground and begged for mercy.
This includes Socrates and others.
Generally speaking, the Athenians would not kneel down. Even when they were worshiping gods or praying, they would stand or raise their hands.
Kneeling is a Persian autocratic ritual, a gesture of slaves towards their monarchs, so it is very taboo in Athens.
However, at this moment, their bodies trembled, and everyone, including Socrates, knelt on the ground without hesitation.
Ask for forgiveness for the disrespectful behavior I had committed before by not recognizing the gods.
At the same time, both Socrates and officials such as Anytus could not help but let their imagination run wild.
"Who is this god in front of me?"
"He..."
Soon, they guessed who the god before them was from the images of gods described in epics such as the Theogony.
Could it be...
At this moment, their bodies trembled and their hearts were shocked.
At the same time, just as they were guessing.
……
Temple of Ionos in the center of Athens.
Looking at the statue of Lord Ilonus made of ivory and gold in the temple, the chief priest Anos sighed secretly.
Although he was the chief priest of the Temple of Ilonas in Athens, he also cultivated some mysterious powers.
However, whether it was sacrifice, prayer or hymn, he could not establish contact with the main god Ilonus or the gods.
Therefore, he always had doubts about the existence of Lord Ilonus and all the gods.
He is closest to God, yet he is the least believer in God.
The high priest Anos often felt ashamed of his thoughts, but he couldn't help thinking about them, wondering whether the main gods such as Ilonus existed.
Just when he wanted to serve the statue of Lord Ilonus as he did in the past, bathing, dressing and offering flowers to the statue.
Suddenly, the statue of Lord Ilonus made of ivory and gold released a rich sunlight in his shocked eyes, and the statue seemed to have a touch of divinity that made it impossible to look directly at it.
This is? !
"what happened?!"
