Chapter 607: The Breath of Death

Hector spoke: "Andromace, there is always a voice in my heart that commands me to fight on the fiercest fronts. Although I had a premonition that the city of Troy would one day be destroyed, so would my father Priam and his people. ”

Hearing this, Pei Ziyun was a little silent.

"This may have been the will of Apollo. ”

"Even the will of the gods. ”

"Not only was Hector the strongest hero in Troy, but he was also responsible for killing as many Greeks as he could - Hector had to charge into battle until he came to an end because he had killed too many people. ”

"I don't want Hector himself to have this realization. ”

"Yes, Hector is a powerful hero, with the blood of Zeus, Scamander, and even Aphrodite in his veins, and he can judge the ultimate fate of Troy and the fate of his own people through various signs. ”

When the Battle of Troy first broke out, Hector may still be a little unable to see clearly, but after years of war, some of the hidden truths have gradually surfaced, and he knows the nature of this war better.

No matter how the Trojans and the Greeks fought, the final victory was actually arranged by the gods, and neither side had the right to decide who would be the final victor.

And through years of observation, Hector clearly felt that except for a few gods who blessed Troy, most of the gods favored the Greeks.

This time the Greeks can be persecuted so badly, in fact, it is the manipulation of the gods, that is, the gods want the Greeks to fall into a miserable situation, as for the reason, Hector is not clear for the time being, he just smiled slightly bitterly: "Troy is about to be destroyed, which makes me always in sorrow, but what makes me feel even more sad is that it is the pain you will suffer." ”

"If I fail, the Greeks will take you back and make you a slave, spinning and weaving, carrying water for irrigation, and everyone who sees you will say, "Oh, look, this is Hector's wife." ”

"Thinking of this, I'd rather die now. ”

All the Trojans tried to avoid the fact that the Trojans might fail, including King Priam and many elders and princes, and Hector himself tried not to think about defeat when he was outside.

But when he was alone, Hector had to think about the possible defeat of the Trojans in the Battle of Troy, and the thought of the possible misfortune of his wife and children plunged him into misery.

Hector could only do what he could to win the war, even though he knew that the odds were getting slimmer.

Hector smiled bitterly again, and reached out to pick up the child, but the child cried and clung to the maid's breast, frightened by the sight of the fluttering horsehair ornament on his father's brass helmet.

"But it's all Paris' fault, it's he who brought war to Troy. Speaking of which, in the past, Andromache would have been obedient and silent, but today, she turned pale and shouted loudly.

She had a strong sense of foreboding, and she had always believed that the war was Paris's fault, otherwise Troy would not have suffered this terrible war.

It is understandable that Androma carved such an understanding, not only her, as the war became more and more tragic, many people in Troy had this idea, if it were not for Pei Ziyun who was elected by the citizens' assembly to envoy to Greece, the situation would be even more difficult now.

Hector knew more through years of careful observation, but he didn't see it that way, and shook his head slightly: "Dear Andromace, I have also understood over the years that this war is not about Paris, it is God who wants to bring disaster to Troy. ”

"Even if Paris had not brought war to Troy, others would have kindled it equally, dear Andromace, this war cannot be avoided, and it will not be diverted by anyone's will. ”

"And, Andromacke, you have to admit that Paris has contributed no less to this war than I do. ”

"Without Paris's advice and heroic and tenacious fighting, Troy would not have been able to gain the advantage it has in this war. ”

Pei Ziyun, who was hiding in the corner, was silent, and he had relatives, in history, the Trojans did not achieve such an advantage, Hector was right.

"So you don't have to be prejudiced against Paris, if Troy doesn't have me, but as long as he's alive, I'm sure the Greeks won't be able to do anything to you. ”

Hector is still full of confidence in his younger brother, not to mention force, but to strategize, and no one in Troy has it.

Hector looked at his children Astyanax and Andromace, his eyes were full of tenderness, he took off his helmet and put it on the ground, kissed his lovely son, and shook it in his arms.

He looked up to the heavens and prayed to the gods: "Zeus and the gods, let my son be an example to the Trojans, like me!"

"Let him be strong, rule over Troy, so that the people will one day say: He is braver than Hector his father, and let his mother be happy for him!"

As he spoke, the tears could not stop rolling down, and Hector held back the tears, and put the son in his wife's hands, and his wife, Andromace, held the child in her arms, and also burst into tears.

Hector's premonition was stronger, and he even had a premonition that he might not be able to come back if he went out this time, but he was the heir of Troy, the great hero Hector, and he had to go into battle without hesitation.

His pride, his dignity, allowed him to face it all calmly, even if he had a premonition.

Hector stroked his wife's cheeks and choked: "My poor wife, don't be sad, no one dares to kill me against the will of God, but likewise no one can escape his fate!"

This is very straightforward, if God does not let him die, there is no way to kill himself, and the god wants to die by himself, even if he does not go to the battlefield, he cannot escape his fate.

With that, Hector put his helmet back on and turned away from his wife, Andromace, and his son, Astianax.

Andromache hugged his son, tears of sorrow, watching Hector's figure fade out of sight, and only murmured: "Hector, how sad I am, God, don't let an unfortunate fate befall you." ”

When Hector turned to leave, his pace was steady, and he did not panic in the face of the impending war and possible fate.

When Hector turned the corner, he saw Pei Ziyun standing there, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Suddenly, the two brothers fell silent for a while.

At this time, the sun gradually came out, but it was covered with a layer of clouds, and a miserable white sun passed through the clouds, adding a little uneasiness and desolation to the sky.

Pei Ziyun saw Hector in the palace three days ago, and knew that the fate of Hector's death had come, although earlier than in history, but this war also broke out in advance and reached a climax.

Pei Ziyun was silent and did not continue, and suddenly said: "Brother, although Andromache has an opinion about me, no matter what, I will definitely protect her and your child." ”

That's all Pei Ziyun can do for Hector, he didn't become a god, and he can't change Hector's fate.

Now, the final fate was coming, and he believed that Hector also had a hunch.

Hector listened and replied gently: "Good brother, Paris, I am very comforted to hear your words, you are a brave man, but we will talk about this later!"

"Now, let's fight together. ”

As soon as the voice fell, the system shook, and a plum appeared in front of him, which quickly enlarged and turned into a transparent data frame with a faint sense of light.

"Mission: Protect Andromacke and Astyanax (unfinished)"

"If that is the case, the mission doesn't even have an option to save Hector. ”

"Why did Hector die?" Pei Ziyun looked at Hector, who was wearing Achilles' divine armor and showing dazzling brilliance, and suddenly understood.

"The Battle of Troy, to kill Achilles, is also to cut down the heroes, but Greece must win the final victory. ”

"So, the Greeks can die heroes, but they can't collapse. ”

"Hector, who wears the armor of Achilles, already has the possibility of destroying the Greeks, so the gods who stand on this side of Greece will unanimously destroy Hector. ”

"Therefore, if you don't wear divine armor, you can live, and if you wear it, you must die. ”

"Even I was buried in the danger of deathβ€”I put on the armor that Ares had given to my daughter. ”

"When you wear it, it's the same as the Grim Reaper's attention, but I'm ranked behind Hector. ”

"Princess Hippolyta's kindness is my amulet, and I didn't check it for a while, but it was equivalent to taking over her fate. ”

"Sure enough, one wrong step, one wrong step, I don't know how to die. ”

Once Pei Ziyun woke up, he exhaled deeply, and immediately felt the breath of death, he believed that Hector also had a premonition, and couldn't help but admire Hector for still maintaining a gentle attitude, sure enough, Haojie, every world has it, he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "You're right, let's fight side by side now." ”

But Pei Ziyun has been in battle for a long time, and once he wakes up, insidious and cunning arise spontaneously (Note 1), and asks: "System, can I spend fate points to add auspicious signs to Achilles?"

When he said this, he implied a cold chilling sneer, and he listened to the system shake, and a stream of information was transmitted.

"Okay? That's fine. ”

"No, no, I don't need five Destiny points, I only need to spend 1 Destiny point. ”

"Because the gods are already very wary of Achilles, it doesn't need to be big, just a little bit, and it is enough for the gods to make up their minds. ”

"And before killing Achilles, in order to prevent Achilles from breaking through his fate, I will not die. ”

Achilles has a big problem, once he breaks through fate, or Zeus kills him, he may really become a god, and even bring further problems.

"It's not my style to just survive. ”

"That being the case, then I am forcing the gods to make a multiple-choice question in order to get what I want before resigning myself to fate and killing Achilles. ”

Pei Ziyun thought about it, and the system suddenly vibrated again, and a plum appeared in front of him quickly, quickly enlarged, and turned into a transparent data frame with a faint sense of light.

"Mission: Your power has put you in control of your destiny, and with a little auspicious sign, the gods have to temporarily stand by your side and protect your safety"

At this time, the two brothers turned to the street.

Chariots were waiting, all battle-hardened warriors, and when they saw the two of them, they all shouted: "Prince Hector." ”

"Prince Paris. ”

At first it was the warriors, then the people also called.

Today, the two have become the backbone, Pei Ziyun couldn't help but smile, asked Hector to go first, and then jumped up himself, waved to the people, and then ordered: "Open the city gate and go to war!"
