The suppression of the Athena faction by Zeus and other Olympian gods is not limited to Rome.

In Greece, if the period of the rule of Athens represented the peak of Athena's influence on mortals, then the existence of Macedonia represented that Zeus's inherent power in Greece had not been completely eliminated.

On the one hand, the Olympian gods continued to help Rome in the Apennine Peninsula continue to grow. On the other hand, they helped Macedonia in Greece continue to rise and become a city-state second only to Athens.

Their ultimate goal was to use the power of Macedonia and Rome to attack from both sides, defeat the Greek city-states in one fell swoop, and use this method to re-establish the rule of the Olympus gods, thereby making Athena's efforts in vain.

Unfortunately, their fundamental judgment about their opponents was wrong.

As a god who prefers humans, Athena holds the view that the gods should not have always ruled humans. Humans have long been able to survive independently on the earth. The mission of the gods has long been completed. It is time to let go. On the earth, using human faith to maintain its own existence is not what a qualified god should do.

In her view, facing the coming end of the Age of Gods, the gods should give up their status and go to the outside of the world, or somewhere else, instead of continuing to dominate the earth in vain.

The structures of the two sides are fundamentally different, and the natural strategic directions are completely different.

Compared with Zeus's continuous strengthening of human faith, after Athena became the mainstream faith in Greece, she did not blindly expand her followers. Instead, she consciously reduced the spread of faith, hoping to allow mankind to embark on an independent path.

Even after the rise of Rome and Macedonia, she pushed for magicians to join those nations.

On the surface, this seems to be an act of siding with the enemy. In fact, in Athena's eyes, she can do anything as long as it can increase the power of"human beings", and even the Romans and Macedonians are the humans she loves.

Comparing the two, the patterns are completely different.

Athena, who is obviously willing to let go of her stature, understands humans better than Zeus. She deeply understands that humans are to the gods just like children to their parents. Although when they are young, children need the care of their parents, but as the children grow older, As they grow older and become more capable, children will always become independent and impatient with their parents' instructions - especially after the children have the ability to live independently.

Therefore, for her, whether it is the growth of Rome or the rise of Macedonia, it is the process of children becoming strong and independent, both of which represent that humans are one step closer to saying goodbye to the gods.

Even if Rome or Macedonia defeated Greece, unified the city-states, and established a great empire that believed in the Olympian gods like Egypt did, what would it mean?

Although Athena did not know about the divine right of kings that existed in human history, or the conflicts and conflicts between divine power and royal power, she was as wise as she was and had already seen the final outcome of Zeus's plan.

……

Time continues to flow, and Ye Ting has stopped jumping through time for the several times.

Not to mention how Philip II of Macedon led Macedonia to defeat the allied forces of Athens and became the overlord of Greece, and how Zeus gave birth to the legendary king through the womb of his wife Olympias. In Mystra Academy, After more than a hundred years of hard work, Hecate, the goddess of the magic network, finally implemented the magic network of the entire world. Now she can truly be called the goddess of the magic network.

And Ye Ting's plan is almost entering its final stage.

So, he set his sights on the east.

His goal is to end the Age of Gods, free humans from the control of the gods, and promote the birth of Alaya.

Although with the help of Jehovah's hand, Ye Ting has successfully conquered all the second- and third-rate gods in the world, there is only so much that Jehovah can do.

If you want to defeat those truly powerful divine systems, you still need to rely on Ye Ting to take action himself.

Of course, he would not just stupidly attack the great gods one by one and start a fight. That is the stupidest way and the easiest way to alert the gods and cause accidents.

For the final stage of his plan to unfold, he needed an entry point.

And this entry point is in that eastern country.

The Eastern countries of this era have long been freed from the chaos caused by the old rulers.

However, it was precisely because of the fight against the old rulers that the Eastern gods gave mankind so much help. After the end of the Xia Dynasty, they entered the Shang Dynasty where immortals and gods jointly ruled the world.

In the Shang Dynasty, with the departure of the common enemy of humans and gods, the conflicts between humans and gods became more and more prominent, and the gods and immortals also fought with each other due to factional issues. The Shang Dynasty was the main source of the power of immortals and gods in this country The peak period was also the peak period of this kind of struggle. Due to certain powers and technologies left by the old rulers, the people of the Shang Dynasty developed unique immortal technology, including human body refining technology, etc. In short, Breathtaking technology, this technology allows those gods and immortals who are on the side of"humans" to finally have similar power to the gods and immortals who represent"gods".

Thus, the war between the two sides began.

It was a tragic war known as the"War of the Gods". The war brought the prosperous Shang Dynasty to a complete decline, and both sides of the war suffered heavy losses. No one was considered a winner, but almost destroyed the entire country.

In fact, both sides of the war have no ill intentions - the side representing"humanity" is fighting for human free will, while the side representing God believes that only the guidance of gods can prevent human beings from destroying humanity.

However, the result of the war was really cruel. Even if the immortals and gods who could even destroy the world suppressed their methods, they still caused terrible consequences.

Out of shame and dismay, the gods completely gave up their rule over humans and left willingly. Those immortals who remained there also hid themselves in the mountains and forests, and their figures were rarely seen among mortals.

As for the immortal civilization and technology, because of its terrible destructive power, the immortals sealed it and did not allow it to spread in the mortal world.

In general, the Zhou Dynasty after the Shang Dynasty meant that the era of mortals had arrived.

However, compared to Xia and Shang, the Zhou Dynasty did not have such powerful extraordinary power to support it, so its rule soon became unworthy of its name. In contrast, some of the various vassal states received the relics left by the Shang Dynasty, and some received The inheritance of certain immortals emerged one after another, so after the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Zhou Dynasty entered the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, first the Spring and Autumn Period, and then the Warring States Period.

It was during this era that Ye Ting, the biggest mastermind in the age of gods, extended his tentacles into the East. _Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
