Chapter 578: The Great Army Gathers

Skulos Island Harbor

Today, the port is busier, with fifty more warships, and servants carrying supplies to and from the warships, Achilles has already put on a battle robe, and even wears armor, with slender eyebrows, black pupils, and lips showing a light pale color, which looks noble.

At the moment, he looks very handsome, but he is no longer a girl, but a brave warrior.

In the distance, a car slowly drove by, and when it reached the port, it slowly stopped, and a real maiden stepped down from it, and Odysseus looked and saw that it was one of the princesses.

"It's Idamia, the daughter of King Lycomedes. Calcas, the prophet, took one look at it and spoke.

Idamia was crying and walking towards where Achilles was standing, and when she came to Achilles, she hugged Achilles tightly, and cried even louder.

Not long ago, Deidamia discovered the secret that Achilles was a boy, and the two fell in love.

At this moment, she hugged Achilles: "My dear, I finally know your identity, and now you are leaving, Troy is so far away, when will you come back?"

"My dear Deidamia, I am also saddened to part with you, but my fate obliges me to go to Troy with the two envoys. ”

"But don't worry, I'll be back soon. Achilles said.

"Honey, do you know? I already have your baby in my belly, and he wants you to come back soon. Deidamia whispered.

"Really?" Achilles asked in surprise, seeing that Idamia nodded, Achilles was so excited that he hugged Deidamia tightly in his arms.

He really didn't expect that Deidamia would bring this good news, and in the face of Deidamia, who was already pregnant, he felt that he should help the Greeks defeat Troy as soon as possible, so as to rush back to Skuros Island as soon as possible.

"Dear Deidamia, I promise you that I will be back soon, and I hope to see our child born. ”

"Go, I'll wait for your triumphant return. Deidamia wiped tears from her face and smiled.

Achilles kissed her on the forehead and turned to get on the ship.

"I already have a child in my womb. In the distance, the soothsayer Karcas's eyes flashed, and he suddenly said, "This is the will of the gods." ”

Odysseus nodded, agreeing with the statement, but said nothing.

"Set sail. The flag-bearer waved the flag to set sail, and a series of orders to set sail were given, and the sails of the warship were all opened, and they slowly sailed out of the island of Skulos and headed for Troy.

Mount Olympus

The gods took in the situation of Skulos Island from the clouds and watched the fleet set off, and everyone knew that the battle of Troy was about to usher in a turning point.

"Achilles departed. ”

Watching the ships depart and sail out of the harbor, Hera was not here at this time, and asked Hermes, "Is there a problem with the children of Deidamia?" ”

Hera was very concerned about the fetus in Deidamia's womb, and she did not want to cut off an Achilles and find someone who was similar or even more powerful than him.

"Don't worry, there is no problem, I have checked it for myself, everything is normal with her child, and the bloodline has been sharply reduced, only the bloodline equivalent to the third generation of divine descendants. ”

Hermeston paused, and then said, "I've asked the goddess of fate about this matter, and she didn't find anything unusual. ”

Since the example of Hercules in the past, everyone does not want to have overly powerful heroes among human heroes, and people with strong divine bloodlines are undoubtedly a potential threat, because only they can become people that even the gods find troublesome.

Hera nodded, satisfied with Hermes's answer, everything was actually arranged by Zeus, and she was just carrying out Zeus's will.

There was a prophecy that Thetis would give birth to children far superior to her father's, which alarmed Zeus, who immediately stopped his pursuit of her and married her to Peleus, king of the Milmidons.

Peleus is just the grandson of Zeus, and he belongs to the third generation of gods, but the child Achilles born to him and Thetis is about to catch up with Hercules (the son of Zeus), which is a typical atavistic phenomenon, quite a second generation.

This had to remind Zeus of the prophecy, and, as observable, the child's divine blood was still growing, so it had to be cut off.

However, Idamia's children did not inherit this trait, so they did not have to be cut off.

In fact, it is impossible to inherit, if this kind of generation wins, let alone fate, even the world can't bear it.

"Continue to observe and keep an eye on it, wait for the child to be born, under the examination. Hera commanded.

"I'll observe. Hermes agreed.

"Also, you see, Troy is getting stronger, which is not in the interests of Greece and must be cleaned up by Achilles. Hera said again.

"I see. Hermes said, looking at the portβ€”the port of Troy.

Troy Secret Harbor

The Amazonian queen Penthesilia landed with the fleet, and led the powerful warriors of the Amazon slowly down from the warship.

On the harbor, despite the war, the Trojan guards were lined up in two rows, with a thick blanket in the middle, to show respect for the guests who had come from afar.

"This is a little too grandiose, isn't it? Why is there a magnificent carpet under my feet? This is the etiquette of welcoming the gods, and it is too much to welcome a mortal, please remove these respectful etiquettes, or the gods will be jealous of me!" Penthesilea was very moved, and said this, but still through the carpet, a golden chariot drawn by four horses was quietly parked there, and the servant had bowed down and lifted the curtain for Queen Penthesilea.

Penthesilea got into his chariot, and as soon as he was seated, the coachman started it.

"Smack. With a crisp whip explode, four horses galloped away in the direction of Troy with their golden carriages.

An Amazonian warrior trails on an Amazonian horse.

The chariot drove to the gates of Troy and slowed down slowly, and even the allies who had come to help Troy were checked before being allowed in.

Because the Greeks were stationed in the port of Troy, which was not far away, and in order to prevent accidents, the gates of Troy City were always strictly checked.

The chariot entered the city of Troy and, again driven by the coachman, sped towards the palace.

After a while, Penthesilea noticed that the chariot was slowing down.

When she looked, she saw that the chariot was parked in front of a royal palace, and the size of the palace was far greater than that of them.

However, Penthesirea would not have known that their Amazonian palace was really miserable, and it was considered the bottom of the kingdom and city-state of Asia Minor.

The Trojan king Priam was already waiting at the gate of the palace with a group of people, and he watched as the chariot stopped at the gate of the palace and greeted him.

When Priam saw the woman disembarking from the chariot, he immediately knew that it was the famous Amazon queen Penthesilea.

He said, "Dear Queen Penthesilea, welcome you from afar, Troy is sparkling with your presence, and we have prepared a great banquet for you in the royal palace, please come with me." ”

With that, Priam personally led the way to the Amazonian queen Penthesilea, and led her all the way to the banquet restaurant.

Originally, Penthesilea thought that she would arrive in Troy alone, but when she entered the banquet hall with Priam, she found that the hall was filled with kings and heroes of kingdoms and city-states.

Everyone saw the Queen of the Amazons come in, and there was a king who knew her well, and they were still greeting.

"Missiers, Lyrnathos, Thebes, and now the Amazons, our Trojan ranks are getting stronger and stronger. ”

King Priam looked at the Trojan allies in the hall with a red face, a force that was unimaginable before.

"Now that more and more city-states and kingdoms are gathered against the tyranny of the Greeks, and our strength is growing, I seem to see the dawn of victory. ”

Priam thought of this and sighed, this is a matter of course.

The Greeks went on expeditions, and naturally had to attack nearby city-states for logistical supplies, plundering wealth and food to replenish themselves.

If Troy does not go to war and does not help these city-states attacked by the Greeks, then these city-states will not be able to withstand the attacks of the Greeks, and it will be a matter of time before they are defeated one by one.

And the dead do not have the whole revenge, so naturally there is no backlash, and there is no retribution for anesthetizing people here.

But now with the support of Troy, although some city-states were breached, their families were destroyed, and they became a source of strength for the Greeks, most of the city-states still survived, and these city-states experienced wars, many people died, and the surviving city-states swore to fight the Greeks to the end.

This is undoubtedly quite good news for Troy, who will become Troy's most solid allies.

"All this is Paris's merit, but where is this son now?"

King Priam sighed secretly, and he looked at Onone and Helen sitting in the corner, and saw that they were both sitting dullly beside them, and his heart was sad.

A sense of pride that had just risen was the thought of Paris's disappearance, which was gone.

Priam knew that if it weren't for Paris's advice, Troy would not have been in such a situation, and in the face of the strong Greeks, he might have been passive, and he would not be able to fight back against the Greeks from time to time, as he is now.

The atmosphere of the banquet was very good, and everyone talked merrily about what to do with the Greeks.

"Ladies and gentlemen, how honored I am to have traveled all the way to help Troy fight against the arrogant Greeks, let us raise our glasses and toast to tomorrow's victory. Priam said loudly.

"Cheers. "All princes and heroes raise a glass together.
