Chapter 227: The Tigerts Mountains
Chapter 227 Tegetus Mountains
On the evening of the fifth day after arriving in the Greek Islands, the Persian envoys arrived at the Tigetus Mountains, which are located outside the Spartan city-state, also on the Aegean coast of eastern Greece, but the Tigetus Mountains are far less precipitous than the hot springs, and the road between the mountains is five meters wide at the narrowest point, and the broken corpses can be seen everywhere on the rubble in the mountains, some of them have only been dead for two or three days, and the bodies are basically intact, some have been pecked by vultures, but more are broken bones, The Tegetus Mountains look particularly gloomy and desolate under the illumination of the bloody sun.

It can be seen from the white bones piled up in the mountains that this place must be one of the hunting grounds for the Spartans to hunt and kill Xilonu, and the only way for Sparta to the east to become a Shura killing ground is not a kind of deterrent to the outside world, and what awaits them after entering the Spartan city-state must be far more dangerous than the Hongmen feast, Zhan Lan said through the spiritual link: "Sparta has always been a two-monarchy country, only in times of war the king has incomparable power, and in peacetime the supreme ruler is the Council of Elders, There is an irreconcilable contradiction between theocracy and kingship, and perhaps there is something we can exploit in this. ”
"This should not be possible, although the elders in the movie were bribed by the Persian emissaries to oppose the sending of troops, and the councillor of Theron was very different from Leonidas, but this is a very unreasonable point, in the battle of Thermopylae, not all of the three hundred Spartan warriors died, one wounded due to eye injuries and one soldier who was ordered to leave the report survived, these two soldiers lived in the scorn and spurning of the people all their lives, and even after death they were not eligible to be buried in the cemetery, From this point, we can see how complete the crazy militarization of Sparta is, how could Councilor Theron preach the theory of surrender in such a social group, and those dialogues in the movie are afraid that he will be imprisoned in a dungeon by the angry crowd as soon as he speaks, and tortured to death, not to mention that the plot is now a mythological line, and the council of elders is under the control of a tyrannical god like Ares, how dare they accept bribes from the Persian envoys. ”
Wang Xiaozhi said slowly, this newcomer has already shown a cool head and good ability to analyze and scrutinize at the beginning, and he also has a weak true yuan power, combined with his dress, it is not difficult to find that this young man should be a Taoist priest with little achievements in cultivation in the real world. However, the realm of cultivating immortals and cultivating qi in the real world has declined extremely seriously, far from being able to compare with the time when the dragon veins were not damaged before the Ming and Qing dynasties, let alone the heyday of the Ten Thousand Immortals Dynasty before the War of the Gods. As a small sect that has declined to the point that there are only two masters and apprentices left, the master was unable to make a breakthrough in cultivation not long ago and died of exhaustion, Wang Xiaozhi's own Taoism is naturally not profound, and even the second layer of the sect's magic method [Secret Inheritance Yingri True Gong] has not been refined.
[Secret Legend of Yingri True Gong] is a Taoist quite profound cultivation method, which includes the practice of the inner Dan, the study of the rune, the spirit of refining the Dao, the gang cloth fighting and other Taoist techniques, the legend can even attract the power of the sun after the completion of the day, the decline of the sect has led to a lot of exercises, which also increases the difficulty of cultivation, the original old Tao will also have some summoning the gods and plague ghosts, calling the wind and rain, rejuvenating the clouds and thunder, urging the snow to serve electricity, refining the soul, slaying ghosts and other Taoism, to Wang Xiaozhi's generation will also refine some ghosts, requiem, body protection, house, Avoiding plague and other talismans, the most important means of injuring the enemy is only the most basic thunder spell among the thunder spells, and the reluctant use of palm thunder will even cause damage to the entire arm, which can be regarded as a very interesting newcomer.
"The use of power cannot be so simple to distinguish, even two forces that are also extremely hostile to us and cannot be eased, as long as their contradictions with each other are great enough, they can be fully exploited. Leonidas, the king of Sparta, who represented the royal power, and the Council of Elders, who represented the divine power, both believed in Ares, the god of war, but there was an essential difference between them. As the most powerful warrior in Sparta, Leonidas regarded himself as the embodiment of the will of the god of war on earth, while the elder priests regarded themselves as the servants of the gods, and the conflict between the two parties has been around for a long time. ”
After a pause, Zhan Lan continued, "Although both sides wanted to execute the Persian emissaries, they wanted very different things. Leonidas is a standard iron-blooded tyrant, just like in the movie, he is like directly killing the Persian envoy in front of everyone, he can also be said to be the most courageous among the Spartan kings, and his extremely high prestige in the hearts of the Spartans allows him to usually suppress the resolutions of the Council of Elders, and when he succeeded to the throne, the power of the Council of Elders was suppressed to the lowest point in history, but it is also such a character that he personally led the dead soldiers to garrison the Hot Springs, If Leonidas's prestige could be dealt with in the matter of disposing of the Persian emissaries, then the Council of Elders would never let it go. ”
The madman's hoarse voice revealing a hint of murderous aura sounded in everyone's hearts at this time: "Hmph, what's the use of you thinking so much, the main plot of the myth has been extremely mutated, who knows what kind of changes will happen after arriving at the Spartan palace, as long as Ares speaks, even if they are scheming, it will be in vain." ”
The madman's words are not unreasonable, what is needed for planning and layout is to predict various possibilities, and to analyze and deduce the layout design of various possibilities, what this means is most afraid of is to do accidents or excessive luck components, and the most indispensable thing in this plot is accidents, and any small action of the gods may cause all plans to fail.
And Zhan Lan obviously disagreed with his words: "That's right, this time the plot has fallen into unpredictable mutations, we are playing with the gods of Olympus this time, competing with the god of war Ares, but we don't have enough power to set up a conspiracy to fight against it, the Spartan palace is not a simple boss battle, Leonidas and a large number of Spartan soldiers are still second, and more than a dozen unfathomable elder sacrifices are extremely troublesome, as long as these guys risk their lives to sacrifice, Ares has enough reasons to act, Now we have to protect Kozan from being killed, which means that we have to grasp all the factors that can be used. ”
