Chapter 396 The Roman Gods Make Their Choice
Roy maliciously raised the price and said the figure of 100,000 square kilometers, which immediately made Jupiter speechless.
After all, the entire Apennine Peninsula only covers an area of 250,000 square kilometers. It is impossible for Jupiter to give 300,000 square kilometers of territory to the goddesses Vesta, Diana and Venus.
Poseidon Neptune and Door God Janus, who were rejected by Roy, immediately asked angrily.
"Human, why do you refuse to accept us?"
"You have to come up with a reasonable explanation."
Roy said very calmly.
"The reason why I reject you is obvious, because you are male gods. If Mars, the god of agriculture, and Quirinus, the god of war, were not male gods, perhaps I would not knock down their statues and drive them away from the Latin patron saints. and the seat of the patron saint of the Sabines.
"Damn human being, you refuse to accept Janus and I because we are male gods——"
Neptune glared at Roy angrily, and then said to Janus.
"Janus, it seems we have no choice but to stand with His Majesty Jupiter."
Janus nodded, and then said to Vesta, Diana, and Venus.
"Goddesses! This human man rejects us male gods. He must have the idea of blaspheming you goddesses. Do you still want to join this human empire of Athens?"
Venus said with a sweet smile.
"Janus, you said that this human being has the idea of blaspheming the goddess. Don't you male gods have the idea of blaspheming the goddess? Gods and humans are beings in different dimensions after all. Even if humans have the idea of blaspheming the goddess, it is impossible to realize it. You male gods can force the goddess to marry you and have children, so for us goddesses, you male gods are obviously more dangerous than human men."
After Venus finished speaking, she walked with Vesta and Diana to Persephone, Hera and Luna.
The three goddesses made their choices, and Neptune and Janus also walked to Jupiter, Minerva, Mars, and Quirinus.
Seeing that Minerva was the only goddess in Jupiter's camp, Persephone said to Minerva.
"Dear sister, don't you want to stand with us goddesses?"
Minerva smiled and shook her head.
"Although I am not regarded as an independent patron saint by the Etruscans, as the sister of the sun god Jupiter, I have authority second only to the sun god Jupiter. If the Athenians can defeat the Etruscans Yaren, I will consider standing with you when the time comes.”
After Minerva finished speaking, Jupiter said coldly with an unhappy expression.
"You dare to seduce my sister to betray me. Now I will use the flames of the sun to burn you to ashes."
After speaking, Jupiter stretched out his hands and released two balls of sun fire to attack Persephone.
"it's useless!"
Persephone stretched out her left hand and created a shield-like barrier of divine power to block Jupiter's solar fire.
"I am the goddess of the earth! Even if your flame is the fire of the sun, it is impossible for the earth to burn."
Seeing the confrontation between Persephone and Jupiter, Hera summoned two black divine spears and pounced on Minerva and Quirinus like ferocious lionesses.
"I will be your opponent!"
Minerva took the initiative to stand in front of Hera and summoned a stone spear to resist Hera's attack.
A loud bang!
Hera's black magic spear collided with Minerva's stone spear, and Minerva immediately took a few steps back involuntarily.
Seeing the look of disbelief on Minerva's face, Hera sneered.
"You stupid guy! No matter how much authority you have as Jupiter's sister, it is not your authority. In essence, you are Jupiter's subordinate god. As a subordinate god, you are different from those who own the territory. There is an essential difference between the patron saints.”
The authority that Minerva possesses as the sister of Jupiter is essentially the authority of Jupiter.
Therefore, in the history of another world, Mars, the patron saint of the Latins, and Quirinus, the patron saint of the Sabines, can become the three main gods alongside Jupiter, and Minerva is the sister of Jupiter. and subordinate gods, but cannot become the fourth main god alongside them.
Jupiter is the patron saint of the Etruscans. In the old era of the three major gods, Jupiter was the head of the three major gods alongside Mars and Quirinus. In the new era of the three major gods, Jupiter is the head of the three major gods alongside Juno and Minerva. In the era of the twelve major gods, Jupiter was still the king of the Roman gods.
Minerva is the sister of the sun god Jupiter. In the old era of the three main gods, Minerva could not become the fourth main god.
In the new era of the three major gods, even Jupiter's doppelgänger and wife Juno can become one of the three major gods. It proves that as the Etruscans dominated the Apennines, even Jupiter's subordinate gods could be listed among the three main gods. The essence of Juno and Minerva was still the subordinate gods of Jupiter.
In the era of the Twelve Gods, even if Roman mythology was influenced by Greek mythology, Jupiter was still the unshakable king of the gods, but Minerva was reduced to alongside the orchard goddess Venus and the oak goddess Diana——
This is the essential difference between independent patron gods and subordinate gods.
Seeing that Minerva was no match for Hera, Quirinus immediately stood in front of Hera and said.
"I will be your opponent, and I will definitely defeat you this time."
"Is your brain broken?"
Hera sneered and teased while wielding the black magic spear to attack Quirinus.
"Now you are no longer the patron saint of the Sabines. You have become a wandering god. How can you have the confidence to fight me?"
With a click!
Hera's black divine spear collided with Quirinus's wooden stick, and Quirinus's wooden stick was immediately split in half by the blade of the black divine spear.
Just when Hera wanted to attack Quirinus' body, Minerva's stone spear stabbed from the side, and Hera could only retreat to avoid the attack.
After helping Quirinus resolve the crisis, Minerva said to Quirinus.
"God of War Quirinus, we must join forces to fight her."
Quirinus said, putting aside his arrogance.
"Goddess Minerva, you are right. I am willing to cooperate with you to defeat this hateful foreign god."
Persephone confronted Jupiter, Minerva and Quirinus joined forces to attack Hera, and the three male gods Mars, Janus, and Neptune also fought a battle of gods with the four goddesses Luna, Vesta, Venus, and Diana.
Seeing that the goddesses of the Athenian Empire had the upper hand, Roy gave up the idea of summoning more goddesses and began to concentrate on fighting Amulius.
It has to be admitted that Amulius is also a powerful demigod hero.
It's a pity that Roy's strength has been raised to the limit of a demigod hero.
If Roy is willing to bear the cost of injury, Amulius will be defeated by Roy at the beginning of the battle.
Because Roy wants to defeat Amulius without injury, this battle will continue until now.
As time passed, Amulius had more and more flaws. Roy finally seized the opportunity to pierce Amulius' heart with his gun blade and avoid Amulius' final blow.
