Chapter 610: Achilles
"Interesting. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" looked at the black sailing ship that was rushing towards him, and promised to smile at the corners of his mouth.
It was evident that the black-sailed ship had apparently spotted the figure of the Promise alone, located on the beach closest to the coast. Promise is a warrior who is ready to take on the challenge alone. So he made the promise a goal and rushed over.
Thousands of years ago, war was still in a relatively primitive state.
The heads-up between the warriors of both sides was symbolic in this era. Brave men who are not afraid of death will have the courage to accept the invitation of heads-up. Because if you refuse to go head-to-head for no reason, you will greatly damage your reputation. And fame is even higher than life in this era.
"Who's coming?" Promise to stretch your muscles, adjust your breathing, and get ready for the challenge. Squinting his eyes at the clipper with the black sails, he guessed that it was the strong man on board.
The ring says that this world has great power, and the promise has been deeply felt.
The energy elements in this world are extremely abundant, and even the air contains powerful energy elements. Living in this kind of world with abundant energy elements for a long time, and even the existence of gods, even an ordinary person's physical fitness is much stronger than the elite soldiers in the modern world.
Even if you don't know how to absorb the energy elements between heaven and earth, if you live in this place for a long time, you will be invaded by the energy elements to strengthen your body.
Before he looked at the soldiers on the beach behind him who were ready to resist the invasion, he could feel that his physical strength was even higher than that of the elite soldiers of the modern world. Coupled with the martial arts that have been cultivated all year round, its individual combat ability must be very strong.
In this case, the one who can be named a hero by the ring must be a stronger existence.
"If it's really Troy, then the most powerful hero on the other side of the ring must be the legendary Achilles. Perhaps the boat on the other side that was about to arrive at the beach was Achilles.
Behind him there was the dull sound of horses' hooves hitting the ground, and Promise turned his head to see a large group of heavily armed cavalry whizzing through the dust.
A large number of archers drew their bowstrings as the fastest black galleon roared across the sea and onto the beach. Many archers unleashed their sharp arrows one after another, and a rain of arrows roared into the sky, and then fell on the black galleon.
'Do-do-do~~~' The dense rain of arrows was deeply rooted in the strong ship, and some of the soldiers on the ship were shot by sharp arrows and fell to the ground screaming.
A large number of soldiers in armor jumped off the side of the ship, raised their shields and shouted and rushed to the fortifications on the beach. And the first thing is to stand alone on the beach and face the promises of these soldiers.
The soldiers who jumped off the ship were clearly well-trained and extremely elite. Even in the face of the fierce rain of arrows, there was no fear. Soon, they gathered together and formed a formation, holding their shields high to form a tight defensive formation like tortoiseshells, and rushed over.
"Achilles, son of Peleus!" At the forefront is a sturdy warrior with a perfect body and a handsome face. The warrior dodged the arrows whizzing around him, roared his name and rushed to the promise.
In his opinion, standing alone at the forefront and waiting for him must be the warriors of the Trojans. Although he was puzzled by the promise of being unarmed, he rushed over without the slightest hesitation.
"Sure enough, Achilles. Troy. After hearing the roar of the galloping warrior on the other side, he had already determined that the world he was in and that his main target was Achilles, a demigod hero with divine blood. The most brilliant and powerful warrior in the entire Trojan War.
"Is it an ordinary human world, or a mythical world in which gods participate?" For Achilles, who rushed straight forward, there was no wave on the face of the promise, and there was no emotion in the slightest.
He has already experienced too much fighting and bloodshed. At this moment, even Zeus standing in front of him could not move him in the slightest.
What Promise cares about now is whether this is an ordinary human world or a mythical world of legends. In the ordinary world, they promise to have no dangers or opponents, and even be able to fight against tens of thousands of troops on the sea on their own alone.
But if it is really a mythical world, then there are many more things that need to be considered and done in order to complete the mission.
Having experienced many battlefields and bloody killings, he promised not to fear any opponent, but he was not a reckless man. His primary goal is always to complete the task, and everything else has to wait until the task is completed.
"It's fine." Achilles on the opposite side had already jumped up suddenly, clenching the sword in his hand like a winged giant and pounced on the promise. And the promise is to squint his eyes, and the corners of his mouth are hooked into a smile, "Just let me try your catties!" ”
Turn sideways, move. In an instant, he dodged the sword that stabbed him directly into his throat. Then he clenched his right hand into a fist and slammed it into Achilles' shield.
"Boom!" A dull sound spread across the beach, and everyone on the beach was attracted by the sound.
Achilles' shield was directly smashed, and Achilles himself was smashed out of the air under this huge force, and fell heavily on the sand.
"Sure enough, this is the world of mythology." Although he had already made up his mind for a long time, when he saw Achilles get up from the beach again as if nothing happened, he patted the sand on his body and looked at him. In the end, it can only be confirmed that this is indeed a mythical world.
The promised punch was more than just smashing a shield. His fists contained extremely powerful power, even transmitting power into Achilles' body while smashing the shield.
In terms of the violent power of the promise, if ordinary people suffer like this. Not to mention standing up like nothing, it is inevitable that the bones and tendons of the whole body will be broken, and the internal organs will be broken and die. But Achilles did not react.
In Greek mythology, Achilles was the son of Thetis, the goddess of the sea. After the birth of his son, Thetis foresaw that he would die in battle under the city of Troy. Therefore, the goddess of the sea, in order to avoid the death of her son, took Achilles to the underworld.
There is a river Styx in the underworld, and the water is turbulent and turbulent. But the water of this river can make mortal bodies invulnerable.
Thetis grabbed Achilles' right ankle and drenched his entire body in the waters of the River Styx, making him strong and invulnerable. However, Thetis' grip on Achilles' right ankle became his only weakness.
For this mythical story, I don't know if it's true or not. But what he knew now was that the hero in front of him was indeed very strong, with a beautiful and strong body and explosive power in his muscles.
"I am Achilles, the son of Peleus!" Achilles, who stood up again, did not immediately re-attack, but stood not far in front of Xu Promise, staring at the unfamiliar face of Xu Promise with blazing eyes: "Who are you?" ”
At this time, only Achilles' ship was still on the beach. In the distance, a large number of Greek ships were still speeding desperately on the sea. Achilles' army had quickly come behind him and formed a shield formation. And behind Promise, a large number of Trojan defenders have gathered.
The archers had stopped shooting. You can't be disturbed when two heroes are facing off. This is a rule set by the gods. In this mythical world, humans who revere the gods will not disobey the orders of the gods.
A large group of horsemen riding horses without stirrups stopped behind the archers. At the head of the group is a strong leader wearing ornate armor, with a pair of sharp eyes, a resolute face, and a strong body. The intensity of its body can even silence the irascible warhorses in the vicinity.
The beach, which had been a place of intense fighting, soon fell silent. Even the Greek soldiers who had been wounded by sharp arrows groaned in pain. The groans seemed to be inaudible. All eyes were on the promise, waiting for the promise's response.
Neither the Greeks nor the Trojans had ever seen such a yellow race. Whether it is skin color or face shape, it is an existence that they have never seen. Both sides are now very interested in who is the promise? Which side are you on?
"Huh~~~" Xu Xu slowly exhaled turbidity, and a fierce color flashed in his eyes, "I am a warrior from the far east, and my name is Xu Xu." I came here from the far east for the sake of spiritual practice. Seeing that you are invading the city, you are on the side of justice. ”
"Roar!! As soon as the words of the promise fell, many Trojans behind him roared in unison. Because they know that this mighty hero is on their side!
"The instigators of this war are the Trojans!" Achilles, with a handsome face, raised his sword and pointed at the Trojans behind him, "They robbed the queen of the king of Sparta!" ”
"I don't know what the real reason is." Xu Promise shook his head slightly, and a smile appeared in his eyes, "But this is the land of Troy, and you are invading here. For me, the invaders are unjust. And I'm going to be on the side of justice. ”
In fact, the promise will not care what invasion is not invaded, justice is not just.
If the task given by the ring is to destroy Troy, then he will not hesitate to attack Troy on the side of Achilles. The reason why he chose to side with the Trojans was simply because of the task given by the ring.
Since the ring says that there are many powerful gods in this world, and it is possible for these gods to join forces. In this case, it is obvious that the promise cannot sweep the whole world, so he will have to take advantage of it. Depending on the mission, standing with Troy is the best excuse.
"Hey~~~" After listening to the promise, Achilles laughed indifferently, "Actually, I don't care what the reason for the war is, and I don't care about that stupid king." What I care about is that this is a war that will forever go down in history! Now, I, Achilles, the son of Peleus, officially challenge you! ”
