I Was a Priest in the City-State Era

Chapter 275 The Goddesses Want to Suppress Roy

Mount Helicon.

Legend has it that there is a holy spring where the goddess bathed.

At this time, Metis, Mnemosyne, and Amphitrite were soaking in the spring with human-sized figures, and each occupied three positions in the holy spring, forming a perfect triangle.

Metis said while holding spring water in his hand and pouring it on himself.

"Sisters! The people who worship us are all the Pilaski people who migrated to Greece 1,500 years ago. At that time, the Pilaski people jointly worshiped the snake goddess named the Ancient Serpent. Now We, the snake goddesses worshiped by the Pilaskis in different areas of Greece, can all be said to be the children or clones of the ancient snake. In other words, we are truly blood-linked sisters. Now I am called Roy——. Is this something you can bear to be humiliated like this by a human being?"

"It's hard to say!"

Mnemosyne said expressionlessly.

"I think I can't bear to have you over my head even more than you being worshiped as the Protector God by Roy and being pulled down from the throne by Roy."

"I feel the same!"

Amphitrite said in agreement.

"Since you know that we are all the clones and children of the ancient snake worshiped by the Pilaski people 1,500 years ago, don't you think that as true sisters, we should always maintain our equal status?"

"You two guys-"

Metis said angrily.

"Don't you realize the seriousness of the problem? Now that Roy dares to bully me, a new god without ancient authority, he will be able to bully you in the future. As the Kingdom of Athens continues to expand, Roy's royal power We are also getting stronger, but our territory and authority have not increased. Do you have to wait until Roy uses his royal power to overwhelm you before you feel a sense of crisis?"

Mnemosyne did not immediately respond to Metis's words, but turned to look at the woods not far away.

"come on!"

"May I?"

Accompanied by the voice of lack of confidence, Hestia walked out of the woods.

Mnemosyne said with a faint smile.

"Even if you lose the patron saint's throne, you are still our sister. And no one can predict the future. Maybe you will rise again after thousands of years, but we who now have the patron saint's throne will decline."

Encouraged by Mnemosyne, Hestia walked into the holy spring and soaked her body in the spring water.

Metis looked at Hestia and said.

"Hestia, since you heard what we said, let's talk about your thoughts! Do you think we should work together to control Roy and let Roy understand that he is a priest who serves the gods first, and then he controls the gods? The King of Royal Power?”

"I think Roy is a very good human being!"

Hestia said firmly.

"He is also willing to lend a helping hand to a declining god like me. If Roy only considers his identity as a priest of Metis, he will definitely not think about helping me regain the Argos region, but To seize the region of Argos and give it to Metis. He will even drive Mnemosyne and Amphitrite from their thrones and make your territory the territory of Metis.”

After hearing Hestia's words, Metis hurriedly explained.

"We are sisters, so I will not ask Roy to dedicate your territory to me."

Amphitrite immediately teased.

"Metis, you smell like lying. If Roy really dedicates our territory to you, you will definitely not refuse."

"If you had the opportunity to increase your territory and authority, wouldn't you be stupid enough to refuse?"

Metis said with a cold face.

"Don't change the subject. What we are discussing now is whether to restrain Roy. If you are not willing to restrain Roy with me, and Roy will do something to hurt you in the future, you will never get my help."

After Metis finished speaking, Mnemosyne and Amphitrite made eye contact.

Although it is in their interests for Roy to pull Metis down from the throne of the Protector God, Roy's desecration of the authority of the gods should indeed be restrained.

If Roy's behavior is not punished, Roy will definitely treat the gods even more unscrupulously.

Then Mnemosyne spoke to Metis.

"Metis, how do you think we should control Roy? If the punishment for Roy is too severe, I'm afraid it will completely tear us apart from Roy."

"How about letting one of Loy's women die as a small warning?"

Amphitrite rolled her eyes and said after hearing Metis' suggestion.

"Is this a small warning? If Roy is an infatuated man, this will cause very serious consequences."

"Why do you think Roy cares about the women around him?"

Metis said confidently.

"I can see that none of the women around Roy have received his true love. To him, those women are just beautiful dolls, and they have huge use value. Even if we kill one of them, it is not worth him to follow. We are completely torn apart.”

"Metis, you are still too young and don't understand humans at all."

Hestia also said to Metis.

"Human beings are very complex, so you can't understand them with rational wisdom. Even if Roy doesn't love the girls around him, it doesn't mean that he doesn't value those girls, nor does it mean that he can tolerate those girls being taken away by gods. Walk life.”

Seeing Metis fall silent, Mnemosyne said.

"Perhaps we can cultivate a human being and make her a tool to check and balance Roy, such as my priestess Harmonia. Although the Thebes region is nominally ruled by Roy, in fact, Roy himself has never really ruled the Thebes region. In the Thebes region, Harmonia is the queen with real authority, and Roy is only the nominal king. As long as Harmonia is willing, she can always let the Thebes region break away from the Kingdom of Athens."

After hearing this, Metis and Amphitrite's eyes lit up immediately.

Metis laughed excitedly.

"Roy has been busy expanding the territory of the Kingdom of Athens, so let alone other regions, even in Athens and the Attica Peninsula, Roy's authority is supported by Procne and Philomela."

Perhaps because he thought of a brilliant idea, Metis immediately stood up and spread his wings, and then his body turned into a golden streamer and flew towards Athens.

After Metis left, Amphitrite also stood up and said.

"After my priest Sisyphus was killed by Roy, Roy has not arranged a new priest for me. It seems that I have to take the initiative to choose a priest for myself."

After saying that, Amphitrite left the holy spring and turned into a blue divine light and flew to the Gulf of Corinth.

The Royal Palace of Athens.

Procne and Philomela sat on the throne together, listening to a soldier reporting the news from Egypt.

Knowing that Roy had conquered two city-states in Egypt and had sent ships to transport the surplus food to Athens, Procne and Philomela hugged each other happily.

"Sister, brother Roy is indeed invincible, and our worries have always been unnecessary."

"Even if it is unnecessary, we must always pray for brother Roy's victory! Maybe the goddess of fate will always favor brother Roy just because she hears our prayers."
