Chapter 493 The First Act of the Legend of the King of Athens

Roy wants to become a well-known hero in the Athens Empire, and let three-year-old children know Roy's heroic deeds. Even if he writes a book "Legend of the King of Athens" and distributes it to more than 900 million Athenians for free, he will not be able to satisfy Roy in a short time. Yi's request.

Because almost all of the more than 900 million people in the Athenian Empire were illiterate.

The easiest and fastest way for Roy to deify himself is to perform opera.

late may.

a sunny day.

Twenty thousand residents of the city of Athens were summoned to the Royal Opera House of Athens to watch the first act of "Legend of the King of Athens".

Roy, as the protagonist of "Legend of the King of Athens", also brought Procne, Philomela, and Nefertiti to the best position in the auditorium.

After [-] spectators filled the auditorium, in the ocean setting arranged by the crew, a black-haired boy wearing a mask came slowly from the east of the ocean, talking while walking.

"In the far east, there is a rich mainland of China, where there are also groups of people who worship the gods. In the south of the mainland of China, there is a country that worships the sun god. That is my hometown. I am the royal family of the kingdom of the sun and inherit the sun. A man of God's blood. Because of the war between the mighty Xia Kingdom and the mighty Shang Kingdom, I was persecuted by the Shang King as a distant relative of King Jie of Xia, and had to leave my hometown and come to the distant world of the Aegean Sea."

After listening to the black-haired boy's self-introduction, Nefertiti asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, why does the King of Athens who plays you wear a mask?"

"Not only the king of Athens, but everyone in the play must wear a mask."

Roy explained with a smile.

"This is done to prevent some people with insufficient intelligence from worshiping opera actors as idols."

"Is the self-introduction of the King of Athens true? Your Majesty is a royal family from the far east, a noble god who inherits the blood of the Sun God?"

"It may not have been true before, but in future history and mythology, I am a noble god-man who inherits the blood of the sun god. So in the future, I will inherit the power of the great ancestor and become the only sun god in the Athens Empire."

At this moment, as the curtain switched, the King of Athens landed in the port of Piraeus and met Pandion, the leader of the Athenian tribe.

Pandion, who was impressed by the temperament and talent of the King of Athens, immediately brought the King of Athens back to the Athenian tribe.

After Pandion's family members appeared on the stage, the masked [Procne] and [Philomela] fell in love with King Roy of Athens at first sight, and the sisters whispered [loudly] about their love for the King of Athens.

Seeing this scene, Philomela, who was the person involved, couldn't help asking Roy.

"Brother Luoy, did my sister and I fall in love with you at first sight when we first saw you?"

"Didn't you and Procne fall in love with me at first sight?"

Roy showed a playful smile and said to Procne.

"Procne, you didn't fall in love with me at first sight?"

Procne gave Roy a white look, then smiled.

"Brother Roy is right. When I first saw you, I fell in love with you deeply."

Hearing Procne's answer, Roy laughed and said.

"Phiromela, the facts are not important. Because in future history and mythology, it will be recorded that Procne and Philomela fell in love with their future husband the first time they saw King Roy of Athens."

Philomela frowned and said.

"Although, as Brother Roy's wife, I don't mind being thought of as falling in love with Roy at first sight, but it doesn't feel good to deceive others like this!"

At this time the curtain changed, and the King of Athens proposed to Pandion that the Athenian tribe should enshrine the goddess Metis as a patron saint.

Seeing this scene, Roy reminded Procne.

"My dear sister, it's your turn to play now."

The goddess Metis was the first goddess enshrined in the Athenian Empire.

Ordinary people playing the role of the goddess Metis are undoubtedly committing a major crime of blasphemy against the goddess.

Therefore, only the priestesses serving the goddess Metis or the royal family of Athens can play the role of the goddess Metis.

Procne is both the royal family of Athens and the priestess of the goddess Metis, so she is the right candidate to play the goddess Metis.

On the coast of Athens created by the curtain, the King of Athens and Pandion prayed for the goddess Metis to come.

Under the wide-eyed eyes of [-] spectators, Procne, wearing golden strappy sandals and holding a golden spear, stepped onto the stage on the seawater curtain.

Seeing that the King of Athens and Pandion worshiped Procne as the goddess of Metis, Nefertiti said in surprise.

"Your Majesty, the goddess Metis played by Sister Procne is not wearing a mask. Will she be regarded as the goddess Metis?"

"Procne is worshiped as the incarnation of the goddess Metis, and there is nothing wrong with that."

Roy said with a smile.

"As the first queen of the Emperor of Athens, Procne will definitely be deified as a goddess in the future. She is regarded as the incarnation of the goddess Metis, and the only negative effect is that she will become a subordinate god of the goddess Metis. "

Immediately after the plot of the first act of the Legend of the King of Athens ended, the audience burst into thunderous applause.

At this moment, Roy jumped onto the stage and hugged Procne, the goddess of Metis in the eyes of the audience, with both hands.

Seeing this scene, the audience instinctively reacted that Roy was blaspheming the goddess.

Then he realized that Procne was only playing the goddess Metis.

"Men of Athens, I am your Emperor Loi."

Roy hugged Procne, the goddess of Metis in the eyes of the audience, and said loudly with a smile.

"I want to tell you that I don't like war."

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Hearing Roy's words, the audience couldn't help laughing.

Because as long as you know Roy's deeds, you know that Roy is either launching a war or on his way to the battlefield.

Lowe itself is synonymous with war.

Roy, who is synonymous with war, actually said that he doesn't like war, which is really a big joke.

Seeing that the audience was all amused by his joke, Roy continued.

"Although I don't like war, I never run away from war. Because I want to protect my wife, and protect each of you Athenians, you must defeat the enemy on the battlefield. Men of Athens! If you are like me, you have to go to the battlefield to protect Family members and compatriots, if you want to protect the Athenian Empire, then actively sign up to join the Royal Navy and Army of the Athenian Empire. The Athenian Empire will give you all the treatment of citizens and families, and the Athenian royal family will provide you with rewards and pensions to ensure that your sacrifices will not be Defilement. If you are disabled on the battlefield, the Athenian royal family will also arrange for you to become security guards to maintain law and order in your hometown."

This is not just a recruitment advertisement for Lowe, but it is also rooting an idea for the Athenians.

All the remuneration and treatment of the Athenian soldiers were provided by the Athenian royal family.

In other words, the Athenian soldiers were all private soldiers of the Athenian royal family.

Since the Royal Army of Athens and the Royal Navy of Athens are both private armies of the Athenian royal family, they will certainly not be deceived by others to rebel.

The emperor himself advertised, and the Athenians in the audience spoke.

"Your Majesty, I will sign up to join the army tomorrow."

"I want my eldest son to sign up."

"I'll sign up when my wife gives birth to my child."
