Nova Roma-Chapter 347 - Story on the bridge
The three gods crossed the bridge while admiring the works of art that were on it.
"In the future, this bridge will be a fantastic tourist attraction, perhaps at the same level as the quartz palace."
Quetzalcoatl looked at Flavio oddly "The Intereosanic canal is also beautiful and is even more functional than the Quartz palace and the Pontem Forum bridge."
Zeus looked up at the sky as he ran. "I think he was not referring to functionality but to what he is going to represent as a symbol.
For example, for the Trojans, the wall represented its most significant symbol because it was a sign of their safety and a important part of their lives.
Not to mention that after losing a bet with King Trojan, I had to send Poseidon and Apollo to build that wall. "
Flavio began to laugh, "Go for a moment I thought you had a princess pregnant, and that's why you offered help to King Trojan."
Zeus let out a laugh, "That happened in another Greek city, it is a pity that you are not as liberal as your grandfather, but I like the way you think.
The family needed a change, and you will be in charge of making that change; in the meantime, after helping with this, I will take a vacation until it is necessary to return to start the campaign against the damn jungle.
But now that I think about where Apollo will be, it is rare that he is not presuming that he created an excellent construction.
I should have seen it when he designed the ancient structure of Olympus; I keep repeating it for a few years. "
Flavio was surprised by Zeus's comment, "You should tell me more anecdotes about my father's youth.
But when I wanted to ask, he prefers to ignore the question and better talk about other things. "
Zeus sighed, "I can't tell you much about his life since he must do it, but I can tell you the story that made him change.
Many years before Constantine came to power and we will end up succumbing to the older man with the cross.
Apollo fell in love with a beautiful woman priestess who inhabited the island of Crete, the woman was very kind, but one day Christians came to the island.
At first, they respected religion, but one day, one of the priests died and brought a priest who came from the province of Idaea.
In the Jerusalem area, the priest was an inveterate fanatic, so anything that was not Christian was a bad thing.
Apollo did not care about this and continued with that romance that priestess; the two spent hours together during the day, and at night, he returned to Olympus.
This lasted for a few months until the priestess got pregnant, this would have been great news, but the priest found out somehow.
We never knew who was the mortal or the creation of the older man who broke the news, but that same night, a group of Christians entered the temple while burning it.
They took the poor priestess from her hair to place her in front of the priest, who looked at her as if she were shit.
He questions her for allowing a pagan God to touch her body and make her pregnant.
Under his command, the woman was tied in a wooden stick to start preparing the area to burn it.
With a smile, the priest burned the priestess, Apollo, who was weak due to lack of faith, heard her screams, and went inside to save her.
But it was useless since she died before he could cure her, with hatred and violating the rules he murdered the mortals who had killed his beloved.
The priest skinned him alive and left him tied in a pillar of the temple to be devoured by vermin while to which the followers tore them all over the place.
This action was the trigger for the war against Christianity, the rest is history Constantine triumph, and we lost.
So we decided to hide to avoid being killed by the older man and his son, the rest is history.
Now things are different, and I can tell you that Apollo changed his personality, because otherwise, he might never have helped you.
Of course, during the war, some other things also influenced, but he will have to tell that story.
But maybe you could ask him since I can see the city of Magna Caribe. "
Flavio smiled when he saw at the end of the bridge, his wife, who was accompanied by Artemis.
Quetzalcoatl frowned. "I can see Hellena and Artemis, but where the other three will be.
Do you think they are already working on the bridge to the homeland peninsula? "
Flavio smiled, "We will have to ask if we want to know the answer."
When the gods approached the goddesses, Hellena threw herself into Flavio's arms while Zeus addressed his daughter.
"My beautiful Artemis, you know where Apollo is. I want to congratulate him for the great work he did on this bridge."
Artemis held his nose and sighed. "The very idiot along Susanoo overstated his divine energy and eventually passed out.
They are currently resting in the summer palace of Flavio.
I don't think they can keep helping since they will be asleep for a few days.
Hercules for his part is working with Tláloc to build a road to the city of Aecor Civitatem (Havana)
While Poseidon and Anuket are working to create the islands that will lead to the Homeland Peninsula.
By their faces, I can only anticipate that perhaps the family will increase in the future, which is good news since, in the future, there will be thousands of cities, and we will need gods for their protection. "
Zeus began to laugh happily. "Let's leave them alone, so that love works with them.
The best we can do is help Hercules and Tlaloc finish the road before heading to work with the bridge.
Artemis, if you see Hermes ask him to start bringing materials, we have to create a path worthy of the bridge made by Apollo.
I will show that I am Apollo's father for a reason. "
After this, Zeus advanced while the sky was filled with clouds, which began to create some flashes of them began to come out some thunder.
The thunder began to fall from the sky, and when they touched the ground, they became stone, creating some beautiful figures on the sides of the pavement.
Quetzalcoatl sighed and decided to move forward to prevent any person from being injured or killed as Zeus seemed to be focused only on continuing Apollo's work.
