Chapter 220 Prometheus's Real Name
Luo Yin had no burden in his heart about destroying the Lapiths with war.
If the Greeks were robbers, then the Lapiths were simply the robbers among robbers.
The Greeks launched a plundering war as robbers, and it can also be said that it was because their land was barren and the food produced could not feed the continuously increasing population.
The Lapiths became robbers because they occupied the most fertile land, but were unwilling to change the backward lifestyle of nomadic peoples, and used the most fertile land as grassland for horses and sheep, and then plundered others on the grounds of insufficient food.
"Prometheus! As the ancestor god of the Lapiths, if you want your descendants to avoid sacrifice, let them make the right choice, or take them to migrate to other places."
Hearing Luo Yin's request, Prometheus's face turned ugly.
In the original destiny, there were many accidents for the Dorians to dominate the Peloponnese.
Not only were they lucky enough to learn how to use iron tools, but they also caught up with the opportunity when the Peloponnese was weakened due to the war between city-states.
So when the Dorians migrated to the south, they neither conquered Thebes, Athens, Corinth, or Mycenae, but finally conquered Sparta in the southern part of the Peloponnese.
The Dorians now have neither learned how to use iron tools nor encountered the good opportunity when the Peloponnese was weakened.
If the Dorians migrated at this time, the result of migrating to the north would definitely be conquered by the stronger and more barbaric Thracian knights, and migrating to the south would inevitably lead to destruction.
After hesitating for a while, Prometheus summoned a scimitar and said to Luo Yin.
"I am worshipped as the ancestor god of nomadic peoples. If you want my descendants to become agricultural peoples, then you must defeat me first."
After that, Prometheus' body glowed with divine light, allowing ordinary humans to see his figure.
"Helen [Chiron]——"
Seeing Prometheus' figure, Chiron called out his real name, and then knelt on the ground and worshiped devoutly.
The Lapiths around them knelt on the ground when they learned that this was their ancestor.
"Helen [Heron]!"
Hearing Prometheus's real name, Luo Yin suddenly said.
"So that's it! The name Prometheus [Foresight] is obviously a name created later, and the ancestor of the Lapiths, Helen [Heron], is your real name."
"My children!"
Prometheus said with his back to Chiron and others.
"Now our clan is facing the choice of survival and destruction. I will use my life to pave the way for your future."
While speaking, Prometheus turned into a huge figure of ten meters in height, and then swung a sharp scimitar to slash at Luo Yin on the ground.
Facing Prometheus's attack, Luo Yin stretched out his wings behind him and flew into the air at a great speed to avoid Prometheus's attack.
When Prometheus looked up at the sky, Luo Yin turned into a god figure of a hundred meters high, waving a divine spear burning with flames and descended from the sky.
The next moment!
Luo Yin's body fell to the ground like a falling meteor, and Luo Yin's divine spear also pierced Prometheus' body from top to bottom.
After the sun fire on the divine spear burned Prometheus' body to ashes, Luo Yin couldn't help but murmured.
"Is this your real purpose? Let the Lapiths see with their own eyes that I am a god, and then give up the idea of fighting against me. You are indeed a wise man worthy of the name Prometheus."
After Prometheus' body completely disappeared, Luo Yin pulled out the divine spear from the ground, and then looked down at Chiron and others expressionlessly and said.
"Lapiths! The ancestral god Helen who guarded you has been destroyed by me. Now I give you two choices. The first choice is to surrender to me and transform into an agricultural nation according to my requirements. The second choice is that I will use all means, including war, to drive you out of the Thessaly region."
If Luo Yin's identity was a human king, even if Luo Yin was the king of Athens or Mycenae, the Lapiths would not take Luo Yin's threat to heart.
Because although the Lapiths were few in number, their cavalry could fight ten enemies at once on the Thessaly Plain.
But Luo Yin was a god, which made the Lapiths lose the courage to fight against Luo Yin.
After all, the Lapiths were not fools, and they knew that even if tens of thousands of Lapiths were added together, they could not defeat Luo Yin.
What's more, most of the tens of thousands of Lapiths were old, weak, women and children, and there were only more than 3,000 real Lapith cavalry.
When Chiron was discussing with a group of elders with a serious face, Luo Yin turned back into a human form and quietly waited for the result of their discussion.
After a while.
Chiron came to Luo Yin and said.
"Great Haemon! After we Lapiths migrated to Thessaly, some of us were influenced by the Greeks and became agricultural people, so there were city-states such as Iolcas, Phrygia, and Phthia in Thessaly. You want us to become agricultural people, and we are not difficult to accept your request, but we are worried that our interests cannot be guaranteed."
"How do you want me to guarantee your interests?"
"I want to give you my granddaughter Hippodamia! Of course, I will not expect Hippodamia to become your wife or concubine, but I hope you will leave the ruling of Thessaly to the child born by Hippodamia."
Looking at Chiron's pleading expression and Hippodamia's wide-eyed look of confusion, Luo Yin nodded and said.
"I can't think of a reason to refuse, so I agree to your request."
After hearing Luo Yin's answer, Chiron breathed a sigh of relief and said.
"Thank you for your kindness. I will definitely use the shortest possible time to persuade all the people to give up their nomadic life and transform into a farming people according to your requirements."
"Chiron! Maybe you will complain about me now, but when your granaries are filled with the abundant grain from the Thessaly Plain, you will understand how stupid your current lifestyle is."
After saying that, Luo Yin mounted his horse and led his soldiers to leave the Lapitai village.
Not long after Luo Yin and others left, Hippodamia rode a white horse to catch up with Luo Yin.
Looking at the girl who was following him without saying a word, Luo Yin took the initiative to speak.
"Hippodamia! I killed your fiancé Pirithous and forced your people to change their lifestyle. There is no need for you to force yourself to stay with me."
Hippodamia immediately shook his head and said.
"I must give birth to your child for the sake of my people, so that a child with Lapithian blood will become the future ruler of Thessaly."
Looking at Hippodamia with a determined expression, Luo Yin couldn't help but think of Hippodamia's image in mythology.
Although she was born among the barbaric Lapithians, she has a graceful figure, a delicate face, and a kind nature.
Pirithous married her not only to become the king of all Lapithians, but also for her beauty and figure.
