Chapter 546: God's Intervention
The duel between Pei Ziyun and Menelaus is underway.
Pei Ziyun used his flexible body and Ares's swordsmanship to fight with Menelaus all the time, but he did not attack head-on, and Menelaus killed several times, but he couldn't force Pei Ziyun to confront him head-on, and as time went on, in the duel arena, Menelaus's strength gradually weakened.
"I see that King Menelaus and Prince Paris are on par. One said.
"You know what, now that Menelaus is clearly in the ascendancy, don't you see Prince Paris on the defensive?" one responded.
"The defense must be at a disadvantage? Maybe Prince Paris is waiting for an opportunity to fight back. β
"You don't have to argue, I think King Menelaus is a little powerless, if you don't believe me, we'll see. One of the heroes said.
Athena, like the Phantom, walked through the array, she was also the god of war, listening to Hera tell the Nether to correct possible deviations, and now there were deviations.
At this time, she watched the duel between Paris and Menelaus, and heard Menelaus's breath disordered gasping, and her expression gradually became solemn.
"Paris's tactics are very ingenious, and they have been consuming Menelaus' strength, and the difference between the two sides' forces is not big at the beginning, so if it continues to be consumed, Menelaus will lose. β
"It doesn't matter if Menelaus loses, with Hermes to take care of him, he can't die, and vice versa, I saw that Aphrodite also fell, and if Paris fails, she will snatch him out too!"
Historically, Paris was snatched out by Aphrodite, so Aphrodite felt that she had made up for Paris once.
Paris did not receive any more help from her when he died.
"But Menelaus loses, and according to the agreement, Helen must be ceded, and there is no reason for war, which is not good. β
Athena was supporting the Greek gods, but more importantly, let the war continue, with this judgment, Athena quickly observed the crowd and had a countermeasure in mind.
Athena, who had become the son of Antenor, Laudukos, mingled with the Trojans, and she found Prince Deiphobos and said, "Listen, Prince Deiphobes, now is the time for you to make a meritorious deed, and for the Trojans to thank you forever, especially more than Paris." β
"You see, he can't take Menelaus for a while, and you can easily outsmart the enemy, which proves that you have surpassed Paris. β
"Moreover, Menelaus looks arrogant and rude, how infuriating, why don't you shoot a cold arrow at him?"
This is a nonsense remark, and in normal times, or if another person says this to Ifubos, it will not make Ifubos moved.
But the goddess said this, and Prince Deifubos was suddenly moved, and his hand slowly touched the bow, and Athena saw the movement, and knew that it was done, and slowly retreated.
In the dueling arena, Pei Ziyun and Menelaus fought back and forth, and the people watching around could clearly feel that Menelaus's strength was obviously much weaker than at the beginning.
On the other hand, Prince Paris's aura is still smooth and smooth, that is, his strength has barely decayed.
"The time has come!"
Pei Ziyun fought, listening to Menelaus's heavy gasps, knowing that his strength had decayed to the point that he could not even do the most basic stability.
Suddenly, Pei Ziyun's sword changed, and he no longer fought before, but launched a fierce attack on Menelaus head-on.
"When" Pei Ziyun shook the long sword in Menelaus's hand with a sword, a cold light flashed, and the long sword stabbed Menelaus in the chest.
But the sharp blade of the long sword also cut through the armor, bringing out a piece of red blood, and then Pei Ziyun showed no mercy, and stabbed Menelaus in the heart with another sword.
"Die!!"
This time, Menelaus, whose strength and physical strength had weakened a lot, could no longer avoid it, and could only watch as the long sword stabbed into the heart.
In an instant, Pei Ziyun felt that the long sword in his hand was deflected, and with a "poof", he only cut the armor, and the damage caused to the enemy was not as serious as the one just now, but it only left a blood mark on Menelaus.
"It's Hermes!" Pei Ziyun immediately felt that this force deflected his sword, but he didn't want to give up easily, and wanted to continue to assassinate Menelaus.
With a "poof", an arrow shot over, as if it was shooting himself, Pei Ziyun flashed, avoiding the attack of the bow and arrow.
I saw that the feathered arrow flew in the air and deflected again, shooting at the belt of Menelaus before it had time to react, and the arrow pierced through the leather and through the armor, only cutting through the epidermis, but blood gushed out of the wound.
"It's Athena's power. Pei Ziyun felt the source of the power of the deflected arrow again.
"It's just ......" Pei Ziyun looked in the direction of the bow and arrow, and found that Deifubos was packing up the bow, although he knew that Deifubos was interfered with by Athena to make such a stupid move, Pei Ziyun was still annoyed, and secretly thought: "Deifubos, look at the good things you have done, you not only want to sneak attack me, but also shoot and injure King Menelaus, destroying the fairness and justice of the duel, once a war breaks out between Greece and Troy, causing bloodshed, you are the culprit who provoked the war." β
Among the Greeks, Agamemnon saw Menelaus being fought by Pei Ziyun, consuming his strength, and gradually becoming powerless, and his heart was anxious.
Next, Menelaus was even more dangerous under Paris's offensive, with multiple scratches on his body and almost stabbed to death several times.
Due to the rules of the duel, he did not intervene to stop the duel.
But the odious Trojans, not satisfied with such a great advantage, shot arrows and attacked their dear brother Menelaus.
If it weren't for the blessing of the goddess, his younger brother Menelaus would have died by the Trojans.
Faced with the vile sneak attack of the Trojans, Agamemnon immediately cried out, saying: "Ah, it was the arrows shot by the Trojans, who broke their oath and broke the sacred duel, and stabbed you, my dear brother Menelaus. β
"They want to kill you, and how sad it will be for me if I lose you. Agamemnon said this, but he thought to himself, "Who is it, which god, that caused that foolish man to shoot this arrow?"
"If the duel is lost, the Greeks have no reason to attack Troy, and now that this arrow is fired, it is the Trojans who have destroyed the sanctity of the duel. β
"It seems that the gods also supported the Greeks and wanted to teach the Trojans a hard lesson. β
Ignoring Agamemnon's thoughts, Menelaus was very moved when he saw his brother caring so much, and comforted Agamemnon, saying, "Brother, please rest assured, the bow and arrow did not cause me fatal injury, and my belt has preserved me, thank you to the goddess of fate for her favor." β
After saying that, Menelaus did not forget to pray to the three goddesses of fate, thanking them for allowing him to have such good luck.
"Go and ask the miracle healer, Mahahum, to heal my brother Menelaus's injuries. Agamemnon immediately instructed his servants to ask the military physician Mahahum, who would treat his brother's injuries and that Agamemnon would be able to completely put his mind at ease.
Then, Agamemnon drew his sword, pointed diagonally into the air, and shouted loudly: "Heroes and princes of great Greece, let us take revenge on the despicable Trojans for their attack on Menelaus, King of Sparta, in a holy duel!"
As he spoke, he personally led his army to pounce on Troy's ranks.
The princes and heroes in the back looked at each other, in fact, everyone could see that Paris won the duel, but the goddess of fate did not seem to favor Prince Paris, and when he was about to win, a cold arrow was shot at Menelaus, breaking the duel.
This arrow came strangely, just at the moment when the winner was about to be decided.
Before they could think about it, a prince responded to Agamemnon's slogan and rushed with his army to the Trojan ranks.
Pei Ziyun had slowly retreated when the Greeks made a move, and although it was a duel, the Trojan army was also in full array, and the Greek army attacked, and the two sides collided together in an instant.
"Kill!" Prince Paris was the target of the Greeks' attack, and when he heard a shout, the three Greek heroes stared at Pei Ziyun and pounced.
"Who are you?" Pei Ziyun looked at the three Greek heroes who rushed over, and shouted loudly, he must first find out the identities of these heroes before he can decide on a strategy to deal with them, otherwise, it is easy to fall into passivity.
Because he knew that the gods had been watching the battlefield situation at this moment, and it was easy for them to interfere with it, just like he had just dealt with Menelaus.
"I am Palotssilaeus, the son of Iphiclus. A hero with a spear and shield said.
He had just gotten engaged to go on an expedition to Troy, and at the time of the landing he was the first Greek to jump ashore, and his fiancΓ©e was Laodamia, the daughter of the Argonaut hero Acastus.
"It's a short-lived ghost, and it can be killed instantly. Pei Ziyun thought to himself.
"I am Elphnoa, king of Eubea. The second hero in red armor said.
"This one won't live long. β
"I am Ajax the Great, the son of Telamon. Said the burly hero.
"This is amazing!"
Ajax the Great was the son of Telamon and Erisper, and a cousin of Achilles. In the Trojan War, one of the commanders of the Greek Combined Expeditionary Force, he fought bravely.
Pei Ziyun listened to them introduce themselves, and he already had a countermeasure in his heart.
At this time, Da Ajax shouted, and threw a spear with force, the spear was very fast, Pei Ziyun was startled, leaned over slightly, and dodged Da Ajax's spear.
But one of the hapless Trojan soldiers in the back was pierced through the chest with a speeding spear, fell out, and crashed into one of them, both of whom were unable to see it alive.
Hector saw that Paris had dodged the spear of Ajax the Great, and that the hero was very strong from the distance of the slain soldiers, and that Paris was one against three, and fearing that he would not be able to deal with it, cried out, "Despicable Greek." β
The men had rushed towards Ajax the Great.
