I understand. Prometheus."
Hephaestus nodded.
Prometheus' reminder is timely.
Otherwise, if he keeps using the power of thunder like this, Zeus will notice something is wrong sooner or later!
After using it once or twice, it can still be covered up with Thor's Hammer, which is not a flaw.
…
Mount Olympus, Palace of Divine Fire
Here in the middle of the night, it is still as bright as day.
In the depths of this palace, the eternal divine fire is burning blazingly.
"As long as the fire is stolen, the plan will be more than half successful."
In the shadows behind the great colonnades of the shrine.
Prometheus didn't know when to appear, he was quite nervous, looking around vigilantly.
After negotiating with Hephaestus, he immediately rushed back to Mount Olympus to steal the fire.
The sooner this happens the better.
The faster it is, the less suspicious Zeus will be.
The guards guarding the shrine outside did not find Prometheus.
Like a ghost, he quietly sneaked into the temple.
Passing through two empty halls, he came to the deepest part.
There is a round altar in the center here, one person high, carved with patterns on the outside, and the whole is the same color as bronze.
At the very top is concave, where the divine fire burns blazingly.
This kind of divine fire does not need divine support and will never go out.
In the era when most human beings are still in the period of drinking blood, the significance of fire is self-evident.
Prometheus breathed a sigh of relief, his expression calmed down, he walked up to the divine fire, took out the Holy Grail from his robe, and received the divine fire.
The process was smooth.
The Holy Grail of Prometheus is lit.
Now, he just needs to take the fire away from Mount Olympus, and everything will be safe.
"Do you know what you're doing?"
at this time.
A cold voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Prometheus shook his big hand involuntarily, he turned his head slightly, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a young goddess in golden armor.
The goddess is majestic, her appearance is bright and refined, and her eyes are piercing with burning eyes.
"Athena..."
Prometheus called out.
Holding the Holy Grail that was ignited with divine fire, he slowly turned around to face the goddess.
"Do you know the consequences of, what you doing?"
Athena repeated, eyes piercing.
"Human beings are my children. Athena, you also gave them wisdom, you should know their situation."
Prometheus sighed.
He wanted to persuade Athena.
"You can propose to the king of gods. It is up to the king of gods to decide whether to bestow human fire. Instead of coming here in the middle of the night like a despicable theft!"
Athena replied coldly.
"I foresaw the future, and Zeus would not agree. Otherwise, why would I come to steal the fire?"
Prometheus took two steps forward, and his divine power was running secretly: "Athena, we can completely pretend that we haven't seen each other tonight."
"Return the magic fire immediately, Prometheus, I can pretend I didn't see anything!"
Athena raised her voice suddenly, and drew out her great sword, pointing directly at Prometheus.
Seeing this, Prometheus showed a helpless smile: "Okay! Don't be impulsive, Athena, I can return the magic fire, and you put away the sword first, okay?"
heard the words.
Athena's eyes flickered, and she lowered her great sword.
The moment she relaxed her guard.
The figure of Prometheus flashed and disappeared in place.
Athena's face turned cold, and she immediately rushed out with her sword raised.
When she came outside, several guards of the Guardian Palace had already fallen to the ground, life and death are uncertain.
"Prometheus! You're an idiot!"
Athena clenched her fists tightly, her silver teeth creaked, and an angry look appeared on her bright face.
At this point, she could actually catch up.
But Athena recalled what Prometheus said just now, and she hesitated again.
She also understands that fire can make human life better.
The creation of human beings also has her share of credit. So Athena also has deep feelings for human beings.
This was the source of her hesitation.
It is also the reason why Prometheus escaped from Mount Olympus smoothly.
"You shouldn't be doing this! You can't bear the anger of God King Zeus, Prometheus!"
Athena's mind was a little confused, but she didn't catch up in the end, and stuck her big sword on the ground bitterly.
"Athena! What's going on here?"
Rumble!
In the distant sky, eight celestial horses fanned their wings, pulled the chariot and galloped through the air!
There is a golden flame burning on it!
It is the fire of the sun that shines on the sky and the earth!
And in the center of the flame, stands a majestic and handsome male god, wearing a crown woven with branches on his head. His elegant appearance is peerless. It is Apollo, the god of light, one of the most handsome male gods on Mount Olympus. .
He was standing on the carriage at the moment, asking Athena condescendingly.
Just after he noticed the fluctuation of divine power, Apollo rushed over immediately.
As soon as they arrived here, they found the guards guarding the shrine fell to the ground, and Athena stood at the door with an angry face.
"..."
Athena was silent for a while, but said again: "Prometheus stole the fire and fled to the world."
Apollo's face was startled, and he shouted: "You really mean what you said?are you sure it was Prometheus?"
Athena put away her weapon, nodded and said, "It's him."
"Hurry up and report to the God King! I'll chase him! Where did he escape!"
Apollo exclaimed solemnly.
There is no delay in this matter.
Athena was expressionless, and pointed in a direction: "There."
Apollo hurriedly drove the sun chariot to chase after him.
After the chariot of the sun disappeared into the sky, Athena turned and left.
