"Is it related to Medusa?"
It was something about the size of a fist that looked like a round medal, and it looked like it was made of polished obsidian.
A somewhat childish and clumsy human face is carved on its surface, and there are dozens of snakes around the face, just like the hair that makes up the human face.
Of course, this image reminded him of the petrified snake girl in mythology - Medusa.
So, through this you can summon Medusa?
It may also be used to summon another existence, that is Zeus's son - Perseus.
He is the hero who killed Medusa..
Chapter 399 The relationship between Medusa and Athena
In Greek Mythology, in the widely circulated folk myth, Medusa is a monster.
She is a symbol of evil, a snake demon.
Legend has it that anyone who sees it with her eyes will be turned to stone.
Correction, it should be said that as long as you look into Medusa's eyes, you will be turned to stone.
In the mythical story, the chaos of Medusa was finally defeated by a hero.
This hero is the son of Zeus - Pa-Xius.
Of course, Perseus's crusade did not go smoothly at first. In the end, with the assistance of Goddess Athena, Medusa was killed.
However, there are several versions in the mythology related to Medusa.
Medusa was actually not the ferocious snake girl siren at the beginning, but a beautiful woman whose appearance was not inferior to that of Goddess Athena, and she was also heard to be a believer of Athena.
However, this believer had a subtle relationship with Poseidon, and Poseidon did not deal with Athena. He heard that Divine Temple in Athena had a relationship, and deliberately disgusted Athena.
Such an action angered Athena, who cursed Medusa and turned Medusa into a monster snake girl.
Of course, on the surface it seems that Athena was punished for the betrayal of his followers, but in fact it is said that Athena deliberately allowed or calculated that Medusa and Poseidon would get involved, thus having an excuse to deal with Medusa.
The reason for such a calculation is very simple, that is, Goddess Athena is jealous, jealous that Medusa has a beauty that is no less than hers.
So, why did Medusa's hair also look like a snake?
That's because it was said that Medusa's hair is better than Goddess Athena's, so it turned into an ugly snake.
So back to the question, is Medusa's true identity the snake girl?
According to mythology, snakes have been closely related to Earth Mother Goddess since ancient times.
There is a saying that the snake is the incarnation of Earth Mother Goddess.
Of course, this statement is actually a statement that downgrades the identity of Earth Mother Goddess.
In addition, there is another situation, that is, the goddess of this myth will be woven into an evil existence in another myth, and evil existences often have some terrifying incarnations, and snakes are one of them.
Therefore, the Medusa here should also be a goddess in this world and in ancient existence. What is its prototype?
Bai Yue cannot figure it out with his current knowledge of mythology.
However, we can speculate from the characters related to Medusa.
First, trace it from the family relationship of Medusa.
Medusa's father is Phorcys, and his identity in Ancient Greek Mythology is Primordial Sea God.
His mother is Ceto, who is also a Poseidon. Her image is said to be half snake and half fish, so could Medusa be this Poseidon?
Both mother and daughter? Such a strange relationship?
Yes, but these are two different versions of a mother-daughter relationship combined.
How to say it?
Let's just talk about the god currently related to Medusa—Athena.
In the more ancient Greek era, its native God of Wisdom was not Athena, but Metis.
In addition, Metis in this myth has nothing to do with Zeus. This is Matriarchal Pantheon based on Metis.
Subsequently, with the migration and integration of ethnic groups, the myths weaved also changed.
The ancient myth was swallowed up by the newly woven myth. God of Wisdom in the new Greek Mythology became Athena, and Metis became the mother of Athena.
Therefore, there is a saying that Athena is the prototype of God of Wisdom, which is taken from Metis. The ancient mythical story of the prototype Metis is woven into Athena, so the past myths related to Metis disappear.
This is actually a change brought about by the transformation of human matriarchal society towards Patriarchal Society.
So, does Medusa and her mother Ceto, who gave birth to her, have such a similar relationship?
But Bai Yue simply cannot find two versions of the myth involving Medusa that are similar to the relationship between Athena and Metis.
The information that can be found is that Medusa is an evil snake girl in mythology.
Of course, Medusa may have another identity in the knowledge stored in the brain of witch in this world.
After all, in this world, some secret myths will not spread to society, only witch people know about them.
Moreover, it is passed down almost as if it were passed down orally, making it even more difficult for others to know the truth.
As for why we don't want to spread some prototypes related to gods, this is the limitation of humble and weak humans on the power of gods.
Once it spreads widely, it will make this god even more powerful.
And through such division, hiding part of it is equivalent to dividing the original power, splitting it into two and three gods, and its power is also divided, instead of hitting one person.
So, does Erica know?
She knew it, so she was telling him about the true identity of Medusa.
However, if you want to explain it completely through pure dictation, it will take several days to finish.
So, why not go through [Professor]?
With this ability, wouldn't Bai Yue be able to understand it immediately?
In fact, one disadvantage of using [teaching] is that the knowledge gained in this way can only last for a period of time before disappearing.
This so-called transfer is not actually transferred through memory, allowing him to read the memory knowledge of Erica.
This kind of [teaching], to describe it more appropriately, should describe a BUFF effect, rather than knowledge entering his brain, so the BUFF effect fails and he does not remember the relevant content.
Therefore, if you want to know, you can only truly record all the deeds of this god through your ears and eyes—through vision and hearing, and record them in your brain and memory.
However, we just talked about the beginning, saying that the other party is the trinity Holy Mother of Darkness, and we will stop talking here. Lucrezia asked Erica to help.
A monster suspected to have broken into this world from another world was found over there. Lucrezia also wanted to try to understand the situation. Erica needed to come over to attract attention and let her peek secretly.
Therefore, Bai Yue, who also heard such information, was also very surprised.
Isn't this world also being targeted by some other world? Want to be invaded?.
Chapter 400 Attracting Young Athena
A petite figure suddenly appeared on the night street.
Normally, there will be fewer pedestrians on the streets at night.
However, there are more pedestrians on this street than during the day - except during rush hours.
The reason for this is that it was a day's work, and the night that had just fallen was the time that countless office workers were prepared to use to enjoy themselves and reward themselves.
And on this street, no one paid attention to this petite figure.
This seemed a bit strange, because this petite figure, although young, seemed to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, but she was an incredibly delicate girl.
That's beyond human cuteness.
However, everyone could not see the same thing about her.
The weird thing is that when someone walked towards her, she thought she would bump into her, but ended up passing through?
The mistake was not that it was like walking through a ghost, but that this person somehow turned a corner and gave way.
People in the young girl's path will take the initiative to get out of the way.
"Well, snakes are still in this city."
The girl said to herself.
She sensed her snake, and the first reaction was outside the suburbs of the city named Milan, and then she couldn't sense it anymore.
Then, less than an hour later, I felt it again, in another city, also in the suburbs.
Half an hour later, I sensed it again. It was another city, still at the airport.
Finally, the new feeling is in this city.
Therefore, the girl can be sure that this is a provocation from the other party.
Every time the other party let her sense it, he would immediately block it and lure her to follow it.
So, this is a trap. Is there any God-killer among humans who wants to attack her?
Yes, the girl is Disobedient God.
Of course, it may not be that someone wants to attack her, or it may just be to use her to achieve some purpose.
For example, deliberately irritating her so that she vents her anger on the city.
Therefore, the holder may be some extreme terrorist of mankind.
However, this is just one of the lower possibilities that the girl thinks, but in short, it is just to attract her deliberately to achieve a certain purpose.
Although the [Snake] cannot be sensed now, it is certain that it is in this city, but the specific location cannot be known.
"Eh? Lord Bai Yue, you said that Athena is jealous of Medusa's beauty? So the design turned Medusa into a snake demon? Is this goddess so despicable?"
Such a voice made the silver-haired young girl pause for a moment and look directly at the two people walking in front of her, a young man and a maid.
The owner of the voice was the maid.
"This is one of the versions of the story that I have learned about. There is also another version. It is also the story of Athena being jealous of Medusa. Athena deliberately turned into the appearance of Medusa, and then performed various lewd behaviors to slander Medusa as——"
"Nonsense!!!"
A cold voice escaped from the silver-haired girl's lips, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet instantly.
That's really not a description. The air around him has really cooled down.
Moreover, something strange happened. The surrounding light became very dark, as if it was about to be swallowed up by darkness, but the surrounding lighting was still so bright.
"Oh? Am I talking nonsense? Then little sister, what kind of story does Athena know?"
Bai Yue curiously asked the cute figure in front of him.
She was wearing a thin sweater and short skirt, and her slender legs were wrapped in black knee-high socks.
The silver hair, which was not completely hidden under the blue woven hat, swayed with the slightly flowing air around it, and also reflected the surrounding light and shone brightly.
No, it's not refraction, it's like it's glowing.
The reason why he just deliberately made up a random version was purely to attract the attention of the girl in front of him.
From afar, he noticed something strange about her.
After getting closer, after Athena and Medusa were mentioned to him, his reaction seemed to be more concerned than ordinary people, as if he heard someone mentioning himself.
Therefore, the randomly made up version caused the other party to have an extreme reaction, making Bai Yue suspect that the girl in front of him was Disobedient God who was attracted by Gorgon.
After all, when Erica brought this stone over, he unlocked the magic shield several times and easily attracted the relevant Disobedient God to come over.
So, is this loli Medusa?
If this is the case, there is something strange here. If it is Medusa, he should not be a little overreacting and a little angry.
The other party is angry because he slandered Athena...0
"Oh? Did you say that on purpose to attract my attention?"
The silver-haired girl also realized this and narrowed her eyes slightly to look at the other party.
The pupils of his eyes suddenly changed, just like the sharp eyes of an owl.
"Woo~"
