"Hercules said that if you can really change anything in this established destiny, he is willing to make you a friend. The one in the middle is the golden apple you gave me in the first place." Oenone said, "You want to

Remember, if it is disrupted, not even Vulcan can tell the difference."

"This is the effect we want." Xia Lian said.

After a pause, Xia Lian looked at Onone.

"I need you to do one more thing for me now."

Onone looked at Xia Lian with worried eyes, "Paris, no matter what you want to do, I will support you, but I want to ask you not to forget me and our children."

"Don't worry." Xia Lian stroked her hair and comforted her, "Everything will be over."

Onone nodded and whispered softly, "If you really go to hell, I will accompany you."

Xia Lian lowered his head and looked at Oenone who was telling all this sincerely.

In fact, at the end of the legend about Paris.

Even though she was abandoned, Oenone chose to be cremated with Paris' body.

The power of the God of Love is quite terrifying. According to legend, even Apollo cannot escape this power, so Xialian cannot evaluate Paris.

But it is undeniable that she is indeed a good woman.

"You go home first, take the child to find your father, and wait for me to come back to find you." Xia Lianda said.

Oenone did not doubt that he was there, but silently left his arms.

Xia Lian silently watched Oenone's leaving figure.

The poor woman was destined to lose her husband.

He is not Paris, and this woman is not his wife. Even if he chooses Athena and does not abandon her, she will eventually see through the truth in his future life.

And if he does not replace Paris, then this woman will embark on the legendary fate of having her husband fall in love with her and abandon her cruelly.

In this way, it may be the best ending for her to say goodbye to her husband while retaining the best memory of her husband...

He had no words, just took a deep breath. The next step...is the most important step. The success of this plan depends on this.

"Lord Athena, I have made a choice..." Xia Liandao.

As his words fell, a beautiful goddess slowly appeared in front of him, with a pair of bright and huge gray eyes, a typical Greek nose, and tight lips.

She no longer wore the golden armor, but instead wore a beautifully embroidered skirt, which she had knitted herself.

Her long hair was casually spread around her head, less wild and more dignified and elegant. Even Xia Lian, who had seen the Goddess of Beauty, his eyes lit up when he saw Athena at this moment.

Athena looked around, "Hera and Aphrodite are not here. It seems that you chose me?"

He called out Athena's name. If the other two gods knew it, they would appear according to common sense. They were not guys willing to accept defeat, so they just watched Xia Lian give the result.

Therefore, there is a high possibility that they are not aware of what is happening at this moment.

The most important part of this plan is to create an information gap. This information is crucial to Xia Lian.

"The answer is obvious, isn't it?" Xia Lian replied.

"I thought you would choose Aphrodite. Even the gods cannot resist the beauty's charm." Athena said.

"Since you know this, why do you still join Hera to compete with the beautiful gods?" Allen asked.

Athena was silent and just stared at Xia Lian.

"You don't need to tell me, I know it." Xia Lian said, "It's because of "fate", right?"

"Knowing too much is not a good thing."

Xia Lian smiled, lifted up his clothes and took out a golden apple.

"Everyone has a different definition of beauty. Appreciating beauty is like appreciating flowers. Some people like peonies, which are graceful, luxurious and stunningly beautiful. Some people like lilies, which are dignified and elegant, pure and clean. Some people like lotus flowers, which are pure and beautiful.

Not demonic, coming out of the mud but not stained.

For me, there is an upper limit to external beauty, but there is no end to inner beauty."

Xialian handed the golden apple to Athena.

"Your wisdom is far better than any other god. To me, you are the most beautiful goddess."

Athena stared at the golden apple. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, her eyebrows relaxed, and she looked very happy.

"You are very eloquent and unique. In this world, most people usually only appreciate beauty on the surface. There are not many people who can truly realize the inner beauty."

But then, Athena did not leave immediately, but looked at Xia Lian for a moment.

"You should have something else to say to me, right?"

"Nothing can escape your wisdom." Xia Lian smiled calmly without any surprise.

Then he took out from behind the tree the two golden apples that Heracles had brought him.

The description of gods in Greek mythology is actually filled with many contradictions. In terms of setting, Greek gods are actually closer to the personification of concepts.

But their characters are more like people with divine powers, and they can also be deceived by humans.

But Xia Lian didn't think he could deceive Athena, who was famous for her wisdom, so from beginning to end, he never meant to deceive her.

It is not impossible to win if you have a bright card.

"I asked my wife Oenone to find Hercules, and asked him to go to the golden apple orchard and steal two golden apples.

And they are engraved with the words "Dedicated to the most beautiful goddess". I plan to give these two apples to Hera and Aphrodite respectively."

Athena's eyes narrowed slightly and she stared at the two golden apples, "If you can let someone like Hercules steal the golden apples for you, in a sense, you are indeed very smart.

But have you thought clearly about the price of deceiving the gods?"

Xia Lian knelt at Athena's feet, lowered his head, and spoke sincerely.

"I had a long dream. I dreamed that the palace of Troy was burned by fire. I dreamed of burning war, death and killing.

I know that no matter which one I choose among the three goddesses, I will eventually anger the other two goddesses, which will lead to the destruction of Troy!"

Athena was silent for a moment, watching Xia Lian quietly.

"Your wife has the power of prophecy, and it seems that she told you something through some means.

But...if you deceive those two goddesses in this way, won't you offend them?"

"I have my own way." Xia Lian raised his head and stared at Athena, "And are you willing to take a look at the wisdom of mankind."

Just as Ares, who represents war, likes war, Athena, who represents wisdom, also likes wisdom. The reason why she chose to protect Odysseus is because she appreciates his intelligence.

Xialian knew that he could not deceive Athena, but he knew what could attract Athena's attention and cooperate with his plan.

"Oh?" Athena's face showed a little interest, "You know, while I am the God of Wisdom, I am also the God of War.

Are you so confident that your wisdom will make me give up the war and stand on your side?"
