Chapter 5: Arrival in Sparta

After killing the two Persians, Avalon fell to the ground, not because he was too badly injured to continue standing, but it was the first time he had experienced such a high-intensity battle, or rather, it was his first actual battle, and the first time he had cut off the enemy's head.

After killing the last Persian, he felt very tired at once, but this time it was not without gain, he had a deeper understanding of fighting or something, and a warm current appeared from his body and spread to all parts of his body to restore his lost strength.

After lying on the ground for a few minutes, Avalon propped up his body and got up from the ground, looking at Li Xiang and the Greek who were sitting quietly watching him, he was a little overwhelmed, especially Li Xiang's gaze at him was a little strange.

It felt like he was going to beat him up, and this kind of gaze made him wonder, could it be that he was not brave enough just now? Before, Li Xiangba left him two enemies, and he knew that it was for him to experience, as a warrior who dreamed of restoring his father's glory, he naturally would not be afraid of this kind of battle.

However, the strength of those two Persians is not weak, he would have fought for so long without combat experience, and even if it weren't for Li Xiangba, the two Persians would not have been able to beat them if they were injured, and his performance would naturally be very disappointing.

"My lord, I have failed to live up to your expectations."

Avalon picked up the weapons and equipment that fell on the ground and walked in front of Li Xiang with his head down, as if he was a child who had done something wrong, and that kind of aggrieved little look made Li Xiang, who had originally beaten him, suddenly not know what to do.

Gordon on the side was smiling, if he wasn't afraid of being beaten by Li Xiang, he might laugh out loud.

The reason why Li Xiang looked at Avalon with that kind of look was actually very simple, that is, the path they had been taking to Sparta was wrong, and if they hadn't encountered this wave of Persians today, they might have directly collided with Xerxes's forward troops.

Although the ultimate goal seems to be the same, they are all to deal with the Persians, but reaching Sparta is Li Xiang's main task, although I don't know if fighting with the Persians in advance is considered a change of direction to complete the main line, but Li Xiang does not do this kind of gambling thing, gambling dogs have nothing, especially Li Xiang is a person with bad luck.

Li Xiang's first goal is still to complete the main quest arranged by the legion, as for the above fooling around to see if there is a hidden main line or something, forget it, that's the treatment of the protagonist, Li Xiang This kind of person still honestly follows the task steps given by the legion.

"Well, you're doing a good job, but there's still some work to be done."

After watching Avalon for a long time, Li Xiang finally couldn't do it, although Li Xiang would not be soft at all for those who wanted to hurt him, but in the face of Avalon, who sold miserably in front of him and was not his own enemy, Li Xiang had no way to continue to do it.

Hey, it's still too kind, should honest people be deceived? If it weren't for this Kate Gordon, who didn't want to reveal where he came from, he might have missed the main quest.

"Hmm."

There was a little joy in Avalon's voice, although he said that he knew that he was saying this to encourage himself, but he still felt happy to hear the lord praise him.

"Then let's go, but we don't have to follow the previous route, let's change this way."

Li Xiang pointed in a new direction and said to Avalon, this is the completely opposite direction they went before, fortunately they found it early, if they had gone a little more, they might have found that they had gone wrong and would not have a chance to reach Sparta.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Gordon on the side suddenly asked, "Are you going to Sparta?" ”

Li Xiang looked back at this guy knowingly and asked suspiciously, didn't he ask him where to go in the direction of Sparta before? At this time, they still have to ask if they are going to Sparta, this guy is afraid that he is not sick in the brain?

No wonder he used those Persians as guides, it turned out that he had a bad brain.

"Yes, my lord and I intend to go to Sparta to unite the warriors of the place against those hateful Persians." Avalon said as he suddenly thought about something, bowed his head and pondered for a moment, then continued: "But you've taken refuge in those damned Persians, you don't want to capture us for a reward, do you?" ”

Avalon said and raised the weapon in his hand, as if he would do it immediately if Gordon's answer was incorrect, while Li Xiang on the side put his hand on the hilt of the knife, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Ahem, taking those Persians is the order of our king, but I still want to resist those Persians, I have only just heard about Sparta, if we can, we can go to Sparta together to resist those hateful Persians."

Gordon didn't care much about Avalon's question in front of him, what he cared about was Li Xiang behind Avalon, that guy didn't look at the smile on his face, but his arm was on top of his knife, if something happened, he would definitely be attacked by a powerful knife technique, he didn't doubt this at all.

And as for what was caught in exchange for a reward or something, it's even more nonsense, first of all, the Persians don't know if the two of them are good or not, although Li Xiang's strength is indeed very strong, but the Persians don't know, and at this time they haven't done anything to harm the Persians, he didn't have any rewards for catching people in the past, and the main reason is that he can't beat it.

"Are you telling the truth?"

After listening to Gordon's explanation, Avalon fell into doubt, he looked at Gordon who was smiling and expressing kindness, and Li Xiang, who was calm and silent beside him, and finally chose to believe this Greek, after all, he didn't help those Persians in the previous battles, maybe he was really a good person. "Okay, let's go together, but I don't seem to know the way anymore, so I might have to lead the way."

Avalon was embarrassed to say that he didn't know the road, and after Li Xiang pointed out that direction, he felt that maybe he was taking the wrong road, so that he could explain why the lord just now had a look in his eyes that wanted to beat him.

"This ......" Gordon looked at Li Xiang, who was standing on the side and had his hand on the hilt of the knife, if he wanted to go with them, it was not Avalon in front of him who needed to get permission, but Li Xiang beside him, you must know that he must have aroused their minds with those Persians before.

"Okay, let's go."

After glancing at Gordon, Li Xiang turned around and walked in the direction that Gordon pointed out before, it is useless to mind this kind of, and Li Xiang did not feel the killing intent on himself from Gordon's body, which means that he has a high probability that he does not want to hurt himself, as long as this is correct, there is no problem.

As for whether it will be something to hide the killing intent or something, the probability is very small, the people on the Greek side rarely know that kind of conspiracy, such as Sparta or something, it is a group of Hanhan, and few are that kind of intelligence, but their combat effectiveness doesn't seem to need much strategy or anything.

And under the influence of the entire Greek environment, even if there is a person who plays tactics and has a heart, it is difficult to reach the level of hiding his killing intent, mainly because the clothes moth does not need it, if he is a contractor, Li Xiang may wonder if he is hiding his killing intent, but in the face of a plot character, he does not need it for the time being.

After walking for a while, Li Xiang found that the aura on Avalon's body had changed, as if it had become a little stronger, if Li Xiang hadn't been very close, he might not have felt this kind of strengthening.

Li Xiang is naturally interested in this believer, and the fastest way to know his information is naturally to probe closer, and keenly perceive that this skill can obtain a lot of information for Li Xiang in many cases.

[Consumes 10% mana to detect friendly unit followers Avalon, and the strength of both sides is determined]

...............

.....................

.......................

The overall change is not very big, the attribute is a little more powerful, but don't underestimate this, this is just that he increased after a not very fierce battle, the Spartans have been fighting all their lives, although this thing may have increased a lot when the attribute was low at the beginning, but the number accumulated over a long period of time is also a lot.

The most important thing is that his skills have also improved, it can be said that at this time, Avalon has the ability to face the previous Persian soldiers alone, and if Avalon and a Persian soldier go head-to-head, there may still be a great possibility of Avalon's victory, and even Avalon can use his talent characteristics to successfully kill Persian soldiers.

After checking Avalon's information, Li Xiang increased his emphasis on the completion of the task by a gradient, and it would be very good to get such a team member.

The road after that is very boring, their rush is not like the above or in the TV series while talking and fighting while talking and talking about love, and by the way, they also drove the road, Li Xiang They don't talk much when they are moving forward, because talking in the case of running with all their strength also consumes physical strength, with Li Xiang's habits, how can he do such a cost-effective thing.

If there were only Li Xiang and Avalon, it might be over this time, but this time it was not just the two of them, but also Gordon, the second goods, his speed completely exceeded Li Xiang's, and when Avalon's speed was not enough, they naturally couldn't use their full strength to hurry, and Avalon's speed was used as a benchmark to reduce accordingly.

Li Xiang's words can naturally speak in this case, and it is not very affected, but the long-term habit makes him not have this boring habit, but Gordon is different, according to Avalon's speed, he is completely about to control himself to complete all kinds of difficult movements, and when he is in a hurry, he also walks to Avalon's side from time to time to tell him some interesting things.

To put it simply, it is a bunch of bad things he experienced when he was young, in Li Xiang's opinion, his experiences are nothing, after all, Li Xiang has experienced a lot of mission worlds, and those experiences are not comparable to Gordon, but Li Xiang doesn't care that Avalon cares, he is the first time to go far away, he has never heard of these things, and his father will only tell him the glory of the Spartan warrior.

At first, Gordon planned to come over to disturb Li Xiang, but after seeing Li Xiang's hand and preparing to press on the handle of the knife, Gordon decisively gave up the idea.

Li Xiang's handle is a bargain in the legion, and the only function is to temporarily place the Tang knife, and every time the knife is drawn too strongly, it may be damaged, and there are still a lot of this thing in Li Xiang's badge.

In fact, it is faster to take out the weapon from the badge, but if these people see it and take something from the badge, it will be regarded as leaking the secrets of the legion, although it is only to deduct the money, the poor Li Xiang also said that he can't bear such a big blow, so he would rather buy a cheaper cheap scabbard to wear the knife on his body than to be caught and deduct the money.

Anyway, this ghost thing is not very expensive, Li Xiang has also paid attention to which sheaths are suitable for him in the legion, but it seems that he rarely finds this type of thing, maybe he can trade with those guys in the bar in exchange for his own suit, but Li Xiang does not have a suitable item in his hand that can be traded with them, Li Xiang is ready for the end of this world, if there is still a surplus, it will be very early Black Star to see if he can find a suitable scabbard, after all, it is not a way to always be like this.

And it is said that the scabbard produced by the legion has some special effects, although Li Xiang has never seen it, but he is still looking forward to these special effects.

Lee wanted to find that Gordon was just a talker, and he had been following Avalon along the way to tell his story and some new events, and Avalon, who had not experienced anything, was naturally very interested in this kind of thing, although this might consume his physical strength, but he still listened to it with relish, especially when he was resting, he would also express his opinion.

And through these conversations between Gordon and Avalon, Li Xiang also learned about Gordon almost something, and also knew why Gordon would act with those Persians before.

Gordon's family background is very good, he comes from a warrior family and has a different love for this land, in order to protect this land, he desperately improves his combat effectiveness, and he has also established a lot of credit in many battles.

Unlike free Sparta, he listened to his father, who was a loyal warrior to the king, who inherited his love for the land but not that loyalty.

And it was precisely because the king wanted to surrender to Persia, and he was going to send an envoy to offer earth and water, his father, as a supporter of the king, naturally supported this move, but he was not suitable to be an envoy, he was already very old.

And it was naturally impossible not to go to the Persians to show goodwill, so in the end this responsibility was handed over to Gordon, at first Gordon was unwilling, but after his father forced him to die, he compromised, this is not the first time he has compromised, his father has used this method many times before to make him fight for the king, although he is unwilling, but he still does it.

But this time he did not fully obey his father's orders, he threw the earth and water to be sacrificed on the way, even when he was in the Persian army, he only said that he could talk, he still did not directly tear his face with the Persians in the end, he may not be afraid of the Persians, but his country could not resist the Persians, and his father could not resist it.

That's why he came back with those Persians, and on the way he thought of several ways but none of them worked, until he met Li Xiang, who killed two Persians and the civil official, who went to their country to read the order of Xerxes the Great.

At this time, these people were naturally happy to be killed, and after knowing that Li Xiang and they were also going to Sparta, he was moved, he had heard about the bravery of the Spartans, and the fact that they were openly opposed to the Persians was widely circulated among the surrounding city-states, and he also wanted to know if the Spartans really wanted to go to war with the Persians, and if so, he would go to war.

But he went to war in his own name, not in the name of his country, he couldn't represent his country, but he could represent himself, he wasn't going to follow his father's arrangement this time, he was going to fight in his own way, he loved the land in his own way, he wouldn't allow those guys to run rampant on their land, unless.... Step over his corpse.

After listening to Gordon's story, Li Xiang probably understood why he was with those Persians, a bloody story, but this was really helpless, and Li Xiang unlocked the last mental shackles for him, maybe it was still difficult for him to disobey his father's orders, but at this time he was going to Sparta to fight those Persians.

Until the evening, Li Xiang was still on the way, they didn't rest, with his physical fitness at this time, not sleeping all night is not a big deal, these things can go far if they are used to hurry, the battle at this time has reached the point of saber rattling, they can't delay.

But in this way, Avalon is tired, his attributes are the lowest, and he doesn't have the passive skills to restore his physical strength like Li Xiang, this kind of high-intensity rush is still a great drain on him, but Avalon has always gritted his teeth and insisted, plus Sparta's talent is strong, and he finally persevered.

They didn't encounter the Persian army along the way, and they should have been very lucky when they met Gordon before, if they hadn't met them, maybe Li Xiang and the two of them would have gone astray now, and they might have gone to Sparta.

In the middle of a vast plain, a majestic city stands here, and that fierce style shows that they are not to be trifled with, and this is Sparta, the home of some of the bravest Spartan warriors killed in battle in Greece.

When the first rays of the morning sun shone on the earth, there were three people running wildly on the plain, these people were Li Xiang and a few of them, after more than a day of advancement, Li Xiang and they finally arrived in Sparta, in fact, if it weren't for Avalon, they might have arrived a long time ago.

It took him hours to correct the route because he had to re-correct the route because Avalon had taken the wrong way before, and on the way they had to take a break from time to time to wait for Avalon to regain his strength, so it took so much time to get here, but fortunately they still got here in the end.

To Li Xiang's surprise, Avalon's agility actually increased a little, reaching 27 points, which is also an unexpected gain, maybe this improvement is nothing for Li Xiang, but it is already a big improvement for Avalon, and his combat power has increased a little again.

Looking at the majestic Spartan City, Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, he finally arrived here in time, and the first stage of the main quest was completed.
