Chapter 689: Tianzhu's Replacement

How high the sky is, how thick the earth is.

This may be a constant for Ryan. Before crossing, Ryan only needed to use Hundred Poisons to immediately know the height of the atmosphere and the average thickness of the ground from the core of the earth.

For the existence of the Olympus world, this has never been a constant.

Because the Olympus plane was not originally so large.

In the original period, Olympus was probably less than a quarter of its current size, and its length, width, and height were not what we see now.

It was the sky built by the god king Uranus, and the earth was thickened by the mother goddess Gaia. But what really made the sky higher was the Titan gods known as the [Pillars of Heaven]. It was their power that forced the sky to rise.

However, during the Titan War, the original Titan pillars of heaven were imprisoned in Tartarus Hell. Zeus was unhappy with the sky that was pressing down, so he chose Atlas.

Atlas is the son of the Titan god Iapetus and the sea goddess Clymene. He has the tallest stature among the Titans, more than a thousand meters tall, and he has infinite strength. However, he also participated in the Titans' war against the Olympian gods headed by Zeus. Because of the defeat, Zeus simply punished him to carry the entire sky on his shoulders forever.

This is how Olympus looks today.

Earthlings find it incredible, but it is quite normal for this world where gods appear.

Why does the sky seem to collapse again now?

Artemis immediately looked at the highest peak in the world - there is Mount Astra.

Maybe God took pity on Atlas's experience and let him meet Perseus, another son of Zeus, and finally completely got rid of the pain of the sky's oppression.

Perseus is the son of Zeus and a famous hero. He was ordered to cut off the head of the Gorgon Medusa, and on the way back he met Atlas carrying the sky on his shoulders.

Atlas knew that everyone who saw Medusa's eyes would turn into stone. So he said to Perseus: "I am too tired, please turn Medusa's eyes to me and let me turn into stone." Perseus agreed to his request, took out Medusa's head and turned it to him, and then Atlas turned into a mountain.

Zeus never cared whether it was the pillar of heaven or any Titan god that supported the sky.

What he wanted was that his enemies would remember his terror and any existence that could prevent the sky from falling.

Zeus acquiesced to this move.

At this time, Artemis was horrified to find that Mount Astra... collapsed.

For thousands of years, all beings in the Olympus world were accustomed to seeing the petrified Astra on the top of the highest peak of the plane with his hands and the first cervical vertebra [atlas] carrying the sky.

But now, one of Astra's left arms disappeared.

In the vision of the goddess of hunting, his left forearm continued to turn into powder and dissipated in the wind, and his right arm was not much better, with the whole arm showing chaotic spots similar to corpse spots.

Without even a second of hesitation, Artemis said hello to Ares and immediately rushed back to the top of Mount Olympus to inform Hera, the Queen of Heaven.

"I know." Hera answered in a calm tone.

What else could she do?

She was also desperate!

Although Zeus shared the godhood of the sky with her, after all, she did not take the sky back by herself.

Regarding the control skills of the sky, Hera could not compare with Zeus, the talented bastard.

All her divine power and authority, to put it bluntly, came from her careless husband Zeus.

Faced with Zeus's behavior of picking up girls and cheating all over the world, Hera could punish him and even bear the notoriety of jealousy for it, but when it comes to fighting against foreign enemies or Zeus's pitiful and hateful old father or grandfather, Hera really has little way.

At the moment when the other main gods of Olympus must guard the holy mountain and not leave, she had no choice but to issue various tasks and encourage heroes from all over Greece to come to help.

Most Greek heroes are demigods. Zeus is a third-generation god, and they are fourth- and fifth-generation gods. They are on the same boat with the entire Olympian pantheon.

They responded one after another under the sacred sense of mission and the desire for glory.

For a time, heroes gathered and swords and spears were everywhere.

If they succeeded, they would definitely leave an important story in Greek mythology.

Sadly, their god king Zeus did not fail as expected.

Three days later, the petrified Astra broke off another arm.

For a time, the entire sky was shaky and it felt like the sky was overturning.

All Olympians, whether mortals or true gods, felt that a disaster was coming.

"The sky is falling!"

"What should we do?"

"We must find a new Titan to take over."

"No, maybe it doesn't have to be a Titan."

People and gods were discussing, and then Hercules felt that something was wrong. As the greatest hero in Greek mythology, he was the illegitimate son of Zeus after he had an affair with someone else's wife.

He was also extremely strong, and once briefly took over the sky from Atlas during the trial of taking the Golden Apple. Atlas once blamed Hercules, but later Hercules found an excuse to blame him.

But this time, the two Titans who fell into chaos were exiled by Zeus, and Atlas looked like he was about to die again.

When Hercules thought of the endless pressure of the sky, he felt unwell.

Sure enough, he soon saw Hermes, who was responsible for running errands among the twelve main gods.

"I have received the will of the Queen Hera - please follow me immediately to the Holy Mountain of Olympus to meet the Queen."

Hercules' face was pale, and his mouth was twitching for a long time: Can I not go?

But in the end, he still went.

In less than half an hour, he came out of the gate of the Holy Mountain Temple in a daze.

Hera's strict order still echoed in his ears: "If Mount Atlas collapses, I need you to support the sky for the Olympus world for a while. Don't worry, if we find a replacement, we will take over as soon as possible."

What Hera didn't say was: What if there is no replacement?

The gods of Olympus didn't know.

At the same time, after hiding for so long, Ryan finally held back his divine power to a powerful divine power.

In other times, Ryan would have held a grand ceremony for his promotion, letting the whole world know about it. This was both a celebration and a demonstration of the dominance of the physics school.

The tragedy was that everyone assumed he was the God King. Then, as a God King, wouldn't it be natural for him to "recover" his powerful divine power after being a dragon crossing the river? If he couldn't even do this, then you, Ryan, the God King, were "in name only".

So Ryan's promotion was like doing something shameful, and there was no publicity at all.
