Chapter 529: Crying
Mount Olympus
The gods dwell on a sacred mountain that no mortal can climb, and a colonnade runs through the upper and lower levels, which is made up of stone pillars carved with praises to the gods, and evergreen vines that connect the palaces of the gods.
These palaces were luxurious and comfortable, with different locations on the mountain, and when there was a meeting, the gods would march through the colonnade to the temple of Zeus.
Zeus sat on a throne of gold and ivory and received the gods in the largest hall, and the gods sat around Zeus as if a family were surrounding his father.
The gods were intoxicated by the soft and melodious singing of the Muses, and Hebe, the goddess of youth, poured wine, and when the gods heard Paris's prayer, they all rejoiced, and raised their glasses together, drinking the wine that would make mortals immortal.
Hera tasted the wine in her hand and said to Zeus, "Honey, do you see, Paris's final bow to fate, and your plan is one step closer to success." ”
"What Paris is doing is getting more and more in line with my heart. Zeus smiled and turned his head to Aphrodite and smiled: "Aphrodite, this time your arrow has worked. ”
"Great and resourceful Zeus, this is my duty. Aphrodite said.
Almost all the gods fell into an, and Apollo was silent, flashing a hint of unbearability, and developed some sympathy for Paris.
Artemis saw his brother's expression and explained: "After all, you can't escape what you should come, wait for the final choice of fate." ”
Apollo nodded slightly, and remained silent.
Uninhabited islands
After the sacrifice, Pei Ziyun sighed, the attitude of the gods of Mount Olympus is self-evident, their purpose is only to let themselves go to the gods to arrange the script, and now they see that their mission has been completed for the most part.
"It can be said that when I take Helen to Troy, the coalition arrives and there is a war, my mission will be accomplished. ”
"In the future, the gods will not protect themselves smoothly, everything depends on their own strength and the favor of the gods. ”
"Well, I'll go back to Troy as soon as possible and make all preparations. ”
In the battle of Troy, he must improve his strength in an orderly manner, neither can he be restrained, nor can he be too fast, and he secretly shouted at the moment: "System!"
A small plum blossom appeared quickly, and quickly enlarged, turning into a transparent data frame, with a faint sense of light in front of the eyes.
"Mission: Poor Dagger - Cover yourself up again, your light will also attract the eyes of the gods, meet the challenge of fate, let your performance move the gods (completed)"
Pei Ziyun lightly clicked, and he saw one more fate point.
"Got rid of the consumption, and now I have seven fate points, and the precious fate points can always play a role at a critical time, and, I feel, the plum blossom reminds me that the fate points that are gathered together have a greater effect. ”
Thinking about it, seeing that Helen's expression was unnatural, Pei Ziyun patted the back of her hand and comforted: "My dear, don't worry too much, everything is with me." ”
Helen said in a low tone: "Paris, the result of sacrificing to the gods is not ideal. ”
She is the daughter of a god and a queen, and she also sees this, but fortunately, there are two gods who have taken it, and it is not a grain without harvest.
"Rest assured, it doesn't matter if the gods don't take my sacrifice, and this battle will ultimately be up to us. Pei Ziyun said.
"But the Greek coalition is really strong, and Menelaus's brother, King Agamemnon of Mykenny, is a great hero, are you sure to defeat them?"
"Don't worry, Helen, I will be able to defeat them, you know, I am very strong. ”
Under Pei Ziyun's guidance, Helen gradually let go of her worries and gradually smiled.
Pei Ziyun returned to the team, looked at the beef on the altar, and shouted to the soldiers and slaves around him: "Everyone divide the beef, have a good meal, and after eating, we will go back to Troy." ”
"Yes!"
The soldiers and slaves divided the beef, feasted on it, and when the beef was finished, everyone sorted out their belongings and re-boarded the ship, and with a single order, the whole fleet slowly sailed out of the uninhabited island and headed for Troy.
Pylos
It is an ancient Greek port city, in the southwest of the Peloponnese, on the Ionian Sea, with an island barrier outside, and is a natural harbor.
At this moment, the king of Sparta, Menelaus, was visiting Pylos, and the wise king of Pylos was hosting a banquet for Menelaus, a guest from afar.
The banquet hall was very large, and King Nestor was reclining on a woolen cushioned seat, with beautiful maids pouring wine and feeding beside him, which was very comfortable and comfortable.
The banquet was very lively, Nestor showed the enthusiasm of the host, and the whole banquet was full of delicious food and wine, beautiful dancers performed fiery dances, troubadours sang beautiful poems, and even noble warriors performed sword skills.
Menelaus gulped down the wine in his glass and felt refreshed as he visited Pylos and reached a preliminary agreement with King Nestor.
"Dear Nestor, for the sake of the friendship between our two countries, we toast this toast. Menelaus said loudly.
"Come on,. King Nestor of Pyros raised his glass, stood up, and shook it at Menelaus.
Menelaus was so pleased with every arrangement of Nestor that as the feast reached its climax, a Spartan messenger rushed in, but was stopped by the guards in his eagerness.
"What for?" the on-site guard stopped the messenger, but there were two kings on the scene, and they couldn't let people in and out casually.
"I am the messenger of Sparta, King Menelaus knows me, and I have important things to report to the king. The messenger said.
After careful examination, and confirmation of identity, the messenger stumbled to Menelaus and told him the unfortunate news.
Menelaus's face changed dramatically, and the messenger's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, and he stood in shock, thinking that he was hallucinating.
"Message... Reliable?" Menelaus popped out from between his teeth, his face so gloomy that he could drip water.
"King, it's true. Again, the messenger stressed the authenticity.
Menelaus, the king of Sparta, who confirmed the news, was furious, and immediately kicked the banquet table over, spilled wine and food on the ground, and left the banquet hall without saying a word with a gloomy face.
King Nestor of Pylos was surprised by Menelaus's gaffe, and at the same time angry, saying, "Menelaus is so rude. ”
"I invited him to a banquet, and he rudely kicked the table, so where did he put his face?" thought King Nestor.
But then someone reported to him what was happening in Sparta in the distance.
"Dear Nestor, I have just received news that Helen, the wife of Menelaus, has been robbed by Paris the prince of Troy, and that the royal palace of Sparta has been baptized in blood. ”
"What?" Nestor sat down in his seat, apparently shocked by the news, how could Troy dare to offend Sparta like this, although it was a great power?
"No wonder Menelaus is so angry, anyone who encounters such a thing will be furious, I forgive him for his rudeness. Nestor thought and continued to ask, "Where has he gone now?" ”
"I've gone straight to the docks, and I'm setting sail for the fleet, and I'm heading for McKenny. ”
"No wonder, Menelaus must have moved the rescuers. Nestor muttered, swept across the awkward banquet hall, and waved his hand: "Go and clean up—war is coming." ”
McKenny
By this time, McKenny had replaced Crete as the most powerful kingdom in Greece, and had the posture of a Greek ally.
King Agamemnon and Queen Clyténes were proudly patrolling their territory, and Agamemnon saw the blue sea, the shallow sea shining through the sun, and corals and fish could be seen, and on it, hundreds of ships came in and out, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.
"Behold, dear Clyténes, this is the kingdom that the great Zeus has given us. Agamemnon said, pointing to the thriving harbor.
Queen Clyténes was the daughter of Queen Leda of Sparta, and Leda was the woman who gave birth to Helen with Zeus.
Now, as McKenny grew stronger, King Agamemnon had the ambition to unify all of Greece.
At this moment, a fleet appeared on the sea in the distance, and the port bell rang instantly, and the soldiers were on guard with spears.
"Oh, who has the audacity to attack the great McKenny?" said King Agamemnon sarcastically, and merchant ships were just that, they could enter and leave without prior notice, and the warships were to be notified in advance, and it was clear that this fleet had not advanced its compatriots—so it was on guard.
Just looking at the size of the fleet in the distance, Agamemnon was not worried about the enemy at all, he believed that if the other party was really an enemy, attacking McKenny could only come and go.
The hurried bell rang for a while, but it stopped ringing, apparently someone had reported the information.
After a short while, the guards of the harbor soldiers were lifted, and the distant fleet was allowed to approach the harbor slowly.
After a little more waiting, a figure pounced on him, hugged Agamemnon, and wept bitterly like a child, crying sadly and sadly.
"Oh, Menelaus, what's wrong with you?" asked Agamemnon, confused.
Menelaus is also the king of Sparta, so he will not cry like this for a trivial matter, this is because he has encountered big trouble, and it is possible to lose his temper like this.
King Menelaus of Sparta, along with his elder brother King Agamemnon of McKenny, were the most powerful royal family of Greek heroes.
Both are descendants of Tantalus, the son of Zeus, who was the grandson of Pelops and the son of Atreus. This is a noble family.
In addition to ruling Argos and Sparta, many of the kings of Greece were allies.
Then he heard Menelaus say, "Brother, help me, my wife Helen, who has been robbed by Paris the prince of Troy, and my palace has been washed in his blood, I will take my wife back at once, and I will take revenge on him, and let them pay the debt with blood!"
