The Greece Antagonist-Chapter 1175 - 2: The Appearance of the Beast 666_3
Chapter 1175: Chapter 2: The Appearance of the Beast 666_3
After the deities of one wild tribe after another were conquered, they were also carried into the Pantheon, enjoying the faith and worship of Rome.
Seeing their faith respected, their deities worshiped, and themselves able to gain citizenship, enjoying a more advanced civilization and better benefits, each conquered native naturally turned happily, becoming the so-called "Romans".
Through continuous conquests and integration, Rome had transformed from a single nation into a massive cultural identity alliance, with a rather complex tribal organizational structure.
By the time of the full-scale advance toward the Celtic God Era, Rome had already possessed 30 clans and 300 tribes.
Upon hearing the specific numbers, Luo En was shocked:
"How many?"
"30 clans and 300 tribes."
Venus answered again, without any emotional fluctuation.
But confronted with these achievements, Luo En was left speechless.
clans could be seen as the evolution or fusion of the initial three tribes.
But among the 300 tribes, most were probably conquered natives.
Over 300, are they people?!
This war potential is simply ridiculously high, truly a war-conquering machine born for war.
No wonder Zeus didn’t wait for the Mechanical God Clan to develop before taking harsh action and annihilating the entire clan.
Luo En shook his head, unsure of what kind of monster he had unleashed.
"Sir? What’s wrong? You seem a bit pale."
The inquiry came from beside him, and Luo En snapped back to reality, looking at the concerned face, unable to resist asking:
"Venus, how do you guys define ’betrayal’?"
"Abandoned by the master, not needed."
"?"
This unexpected answer left Luo En momentarily stunned,
"Do you not initiate betrayal on your own?"
"Sir, have you ever seen a tool that initiates betrayal of its master?"
Venus looked into this superior’s eyes and replied seriously,
"We originate from the creation of the gods, having no meaning in our existence ourselves; serving the Pantheon of Gods, serving humans, serving civilization, is the mission and value assigned to us."
Hearing this subordinate’s explanation, Luo En couldn’t help but think of future robots.
Humans always irrationally fear that artificial intelligence will initiate an AI revolution, rebelling against their creators, humans.
But in reality, serving humans is their reason for existence.
Human power, resources, and wealth are actually of no allure to them.
As tools, they are like a double-edged sword; used properly, they make the world better; used with fear and suppression, or recklessly, will only bring calamity.
The former is Zeus, the latter is Poseidon.
As the third owner of the Mechanical God Clan, Luo En thought perhaps he should be more enlightened.
Because, Venus was right.
What determines the outcome has never been the tool itself, but the user’s attitude.
Luo En grinned, took the Holy Grail from the Magic Circle Diagram, filled it with wine, and handed it to Venus:
"I’ve thought of a new name, quite fitting for you."
"What is it?"
"Angels, meaning — spirits serving the light."
Venus received the Holy Grail, understood, and drank the wine in one gulp.
Her mechanical body underwent a miraculous transformation, gradually filled with the texture and warmth of flesh, and the scarlet wings extended to six pairs.
At the same time, a brilliant white halo appeared above her head and then quietly disappeared again.
Invisibly, Venus felt she had established a closer connection with this superior, vaguely sensing his emotions and intentions.
A light-shaped seedling of the Kabbalah Tree of Life took root and sprouted in the depths of his mental world, with insights and mysteries from the Origin imprinted into her mind.
—— Our blood is thicker than water, our bloodlines intertwined.
—— Although the Bronze Clan are mechanical creations, all things are spirits of life; the God of Wine’s precious blood will connect us, accepting us as common offsprings, bestowing collective grace upon us.
Understanding this superior’s intent, Venus was overjoyed, stood up in grateful thanks:
"Thank you for your gift."
"Not just a gift, but also a shackle."
Luo En smiled openly and then pulled Venus up from the ground, expressing his expectations,
"I hope you can end all chaos in this world with me and create a new era."
"Willing to be your blade, helping you clear any remaining foes and bring your kingdom to all lands sooner!"
Venus solemnly replied, offering a vow of loyalty to the master she was to serve and the light she was to follow.
Luo En nodded with joy, then broke the solemn atmosphere, chatting idly:
"By the way, with you holding the title of ’Chaos and Order Goddess’, doesn’t that leave the role of the ’God of Love and Beauty’ among the Twelve Mechanical Gods vacant?"
"I’ve already chosen a successor to fill that Divine Office."
"Oh, who is it?"
Venus smiled subtly and beckoned outside the door:
"Nero, come meet our Father God." fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm
A golden-haired girl, not even four feet tall, walked into the room, her curious eyes boldly scrutinizing the so-called ’Father God’.
Perhaps influenced by Venus, the golden-haired girl was dressed rather lavishly, with a crown of red-gold lava cast from her forehead toward the sky, twelve spiky ends draped with charred rose dynasty crests, and flowing magma pooled around her collarbone into the ’Crown of Seven’ script. Her scarlet silk-wrapped body revealed a spine forged from Roman columns. From the torn skirt edge protruded seven layers of rose thorns, forged from crimson sulfur crystals, and whenever the anklet bells jingled, phosphorous embers igniting the ground scattered with each step, while the translucent phantom of the Pantheon appeared synchronously behind her.
—— Nero?
—— The notorious Roman tyrant who murdered his mother and brother, violently usurped power, beheaded Saint Paul, crucified Saint Peter, and persecuted Christians with abandon?
—— The legendary enemy of the Savior, the incarnation of the 666 Beast from Revelation?
—— Surely it can’t be such a coincidence?
The hand holding Luo En’s cup trembled slightly.
