Vol 2 Chapter 323: Prometheus

The gods were stunned by this scene. They stood there staring at Medanzo in the sky. Although they did not fully understand the meaning of "question of fate, judgment of the last days", they also knew that this was mortal transcendence. The ultimate test of eternal life, to which these angels are longing and fearful.
Fortunate to be guided by gods, who doesn't yearn to become gods? But on the other hand, they have achieved the Ninth Level Achievement of the Source Forces, and they seem to have an endless life in the world. Once this final test comes, it is likely to fall. Therefore, the gods saw this scene with their own eyes. The shock of Linghun was beyond description, and he almost forgot where he was.
The horror breath permeated by the ash vortex, even the gods could not be approached, they found that the gods on the top of the mountain were trembling, and hurried to drink in the spirit hun: "Don't bother Mei Danzuo, chase A méng!"
Taking this opportunity, Améng was already down the mountain, and he was very clear about Medanzo's situation. Whether he was ridiculed or entered the kingdom of heaven, the disciple had escaped from the fighting at the moment and no one else could help. It didn't make sense for him to watch here either, then he turned into a faint golden light walking through the dense forest and went straight to the foot of the mountain.
The gods made this happen, and continued to chase along the ridge array, and no one dared to stay away from each other. After such a delay, Améng had already gone down the mountain and out of the dense forest. A farmstead appeared along the gentle at the foot of the mountain. There were large and small houses and terraces scattered around the mountain forest, and there was a lot of traffic. Sometimes there were low barks of dogs, and a quiet rural scene under the night.
Although the manor has no walls, the sense of Améng seems to pass through the invisible boundary like the water surface. There is a large array of space magic here, but it does not include the meaning of attack and barrier, it is just a delimitation. Strangely enough, once he entered here, his state locked by the detection of inexplicable magic disappeared inexplicably, which meant that Améng was out of combat and could step into the void at any time.
That's it! This should be the Pythagoras manor, and Améng finally fully understood why Schrödinger reminded him of such a place, suggesting that he left Delphi in this direction.
The chasing gods stopped outside the invisible dividing line and watched Ameng walk towards the farm, all of a sudden the expression of relief. This seems to be the land they can't enter. Not only can't people enter, but even detective magic can't spy.
The gods were relieved, as if expecting the killing to escape into the Pythagoras manor, they would not have to bite the bullet and chase it. Twenty-four gods in Shiv had only eleven after chasing here, and Mei Danzuo ushered in the final test. All these gods were frightened and at the same time they felt faint.
At high altitude, Yalena frowned deeply, and said with some anger, "Améng entered Pythagoras! The Artemis traitor reminded him!"
Hermes Yin said with a calm face: "Zeus and Pythagoras have an agreement that the gods and gods are not allowed to enter the Pythagoras manor, and Améng is a god, but can leave the world from there at any time, we should How to do?"
Yalena groaned: "Looking at Méng doesn't look like he's going to leave. Did he go to Pythagoras? Even Pythagoras can't protect the enemies of the Olympus! Améng Having violated the cooperation agreement with Zeus, and refused to negotiate a new agreement, killing thirteen demigods in a row, what should the fathers of the gods do on their own? "
...
On the distant hilltop, a gray vortex accompanied the lightning of black sè. Although there was no sound, a horror of shivering spirit shook inexplicably between heaven and earth. Many people in the farm were awakened from their sleep, Get up and go out to look over the mountain top in the distance.
Améng was also courageous, he did not take this opportunity to step into the void one step, but turned his back and looked at Medanzo in the distance. When the starry sky finally flickered on the sky again, the whirlpool of grey ash slowly receded, wrapped in the body of Medanzo into an immortal eternity. Mei Danzuo was not badly injured, but he finally passed the test. Améng also breathed a sigh of relief and turned to continue walking towards the farm.
At this time, it was obvious that the manor was unusual. The inhabitants of the manor were all dressed as ordinary peasants. Although their expressions were shocked, the reaction was not panic, nor did they run around, but stood at the door. Looked forward, occasionally whispering si. When the whirlpool ash disappeared in the sky, these people closed the door and went back to sleep. They ignored the Améng who was entering here and stood on the road.
Améng knew that the gods in the sky had not yet left, but he did not know why the gods of Olympus and the gods could not enter here? He was even more curious about Pythagoras. Since Schrödinger directed him here, of course he wanted to meet this person, and was looking for someone to ask, but he saw that the farmers were shutting home and going to bed. Yes The stranger who "breaks in" late at night seems to have turned a blind eye.
In the middle of the night, for the first time when I came to this mysterious Pythagoras manor, it was not good to knock door to door and disturb the good dreams of others. Améng continued to go deep into the manor. This place is not the same as an ordinary village. Usually the village houses are basically gathered together. The residents are rich and poor, and the courtyards are of different quality. However, the houses here are scattered and there is no obvious good. Bad.
A méng looked around, but he didn't find the mansion's mansion, but he saw a person in front of him who hadn't entered the house yet, still looking at him outside the door. Finally, someone could ask, and he hurried forward.
The light was dim, but Améng's eyesight still saw the description of the man, and he could not help but hesitated. He was going to ask, "Is this the Pythagoras manor? How can I see the owner here?" "But when he came to speak, he became:" Mr. Pythagoras, why are you standing here? "
Standing in front of him was a middle-aged man, of medium build, wearing a robe barefoot, with hair and hair, and a thick beard hanging down to the front of Xiong. His long hair was rolled up like a headscarf, and the nose and eyebrows were high and deep The eyes are like the starlight in the night. Améng has never seen Pythagoras, why did he recognize him at a glance? Because Aesop has seen it before.
When spirit came to heaven, it was not a living being, but an imprint of knowledge in this life. The so-called heaven is the haunted palace created by Améng, which attracted the spirit of Aesop, and naturally understood everything Aisop knew. Compared to mortals, gods like Améng are almost omniscient.
Aesop had seen Pythagoras when he was a teenager. There were scenes in his spiritual print, and Améng would recognize it when he saw this person again. What surprised Améng a little was that Pythagoras had almost changed his face after many years. What Aesop looked like when he saw him was still what he was today, but with his hair and beard.
And Pythagoras replied: "I'm waiting for you to ask for directions, Améng, since you have already got rid of the chase, why didn't you go?"
Améng: "Since I came here, of course I want to visit you. I was going to ask someone to find out where you live. After dawn, I went to the door to see you. I didn't expect to meet you directly .... I just feel strange, Olympus. Why can't God enter this manor? "
Pythagoras smiled: "I have an agreement with Zeus that the gods of Olympus and the gods they guide can't enter this manor .... But I can't protect the enemies of the gods here, you just now I know what you've done. If you stay here, Zeus will find him sooner or later. You come to me, and I want to see you. Come and talk while Zeus isn't here. "
Pythagoras pushed open the door and asked Améng to enter the room, and said, "I have no rest today, I am here waiting for you, and you are here."
This room is ordinary, but after entering the door, I found it very mysterious. The space looks much larger than the outside. It is a hall that can hold dozens of people. However, there is no furnishing in the empty dàngdàng. Looks very clean. There was a curtain on the other side of the hall. Two people stood beside the curtain. Pythagoras led Améng and walked straight through the hall, and they lifted the curtain.
Behind the curtain was an ordinary wooden table with a stool by the side, and there was only an unlit oil lamp on the table. Pythagoras walked through the curtain to the table and said, "Maggies, Enks, please stay outside the door, and an angry person will come to visit later. Please inform me first, don't Let him break in by himself to disturb me and the guests. "
Although there was no introduction, when Améng walked through the hall, he felt the breath left by many people here. He virtually traced back to the gods and understood the situation here.
The Pythagoras Manor is a different world from the outside, where the residents are members of a group. To join this group, you need to swear to observe the group's discipline and keep the group secret. This mortal oath is not the same as the oath of a or a spirit joining a deity, but a self-discipline of members. And this group also has various disciplinary regulations, some of which have far-reaching meanings and some seemingly mysterious.
The members here are equal regardless of the status of men and women, and there is no difference between nobles, civilians, and slaves. The means of production of the manor are publicly owned and everyone needs to participate in labor. They are a group with common philosophical beliefs and research ideals, and they have high requirements on members, and they can't join if they want to join.
If you want to become a member of this group, you must pass inspection and test, first of all, to see if your faith is firm, whether you have a certain level of theory, and finally to pass a "purification of the soul" ceremony before you can become a formal member.
This "purification of the soul" ritual is very similar to the power of awakening the origin to Améng, but it has unique requirements for members' philosophical beliefs and the way of looking at the world. Some people awakened the power of the source during the ritual, while others passed through the ritual without awakening the power of the source.
How to say, for example, Aesop did not awaken the power of the origin in his life. He does not have magical powers or physical skills. He does not have magical mana. This "purification of the mind" ritual is not difficult. The members of this group are nominally disciples of Pythagoras, but it is not easy to see Pythagoras directly like Améng.
Becoming a full member of the group, you can listen to Pythagoras's lectures through the curtain, the place is in this hall; after several years of hard work, they will see Bi when the literacy reaches a certain level. Dagolas himself. And such a person, according to Améng's understanding, is at least a great achiever of spiritual inspiration.
Interestingly, Pythagoras also worked with other people in the mansion on weekdays, but those who could not see him could not see him.
But the two people who just picked the curtain in the house should belong to the disciples who are highly accomplished. They have learned and passed on the knowledge and concepts of Pythagoras, and have their own understanding and interpretation. They can communicate with Pythagoras on weekdays. Direct exchanges, discussions and questions. The Copernicus that Aesop had seen, because his fingers were touched many times, his fingers have been counted as negative. He is a slave outside, but his achievements in the manor are also quite high, otherwise it is impossible to complete Dagolas accompanied him when he was out.
Walking through the hall, Améng learned so much through breath induction, and couldn't help wondering about Pythagoras's identity and origin. And Pythagoras greeted, "Améng, please sit down! It was a long time ago when a guest sat here last time."
A méng sat down and said, "Who was the guest who sat here last time?"
Pythagoras replied: "His name is Plato. You should have heard of it and also knew his student Aristotle. After his teacher Socrates died, Plato visited me and discussed with me. "Yu Guo" written by him. Although he is not a member here, he is still my student. "
The wise man reached out and lit the oil lamp on the table, and inadvertently pulled out the arm in his sleeve. Améng suddenly changed, and couldn't help but stand up and said, "You, you, is that the creator in Heaton's legend ... Prometheus!"
I saw Pythagoras wearing an iron ring on his left arm with a broken thin chain and a stone locked at the end. It looks like a decorative bracelet, but the stone is only the size of a fingernail, just a very ordinary gray stone. This sage doesn't have a superfluous decoration all over his body. Why is he wearing such a strange bracelet? Améng couldn't help thinking of the drama "Prometheus" he had seen in Aaron.
In that human drama, Prometheus is an ancient deity of the Olympus deity, and human legends even hint that he is a creation god. This conflicted with Zeus, bringing the tinder to human beings. In Améng's view, the tinder in the drama is actually a metaphor, which implies a way of transcending eternal life. ro! .
