Dawn awakens the sleeping Hot Springs Pass and awakens the warriors who have fallen into a slumber after a long day of fierce fighting. The glorious victory in the afternoon buried tens of thousands of Persian soldiers in the narrow passage in front of the pass. It even included an entire elite cavalry of the Persians.

Leonidas looked in the direction of Athens in the distance. His face was full of pride after the victory, as well as a strong sense of anticipation. Trust in Themistocles and the messengers of the gods led him to abandon his defense behind him completely. Throw all the army into the attack on the frontal enemy.

Today, when the light of the sun god rises from the edge of the Aegean Sea and illuminates the earth again, he will lead his warriors on the offensive and completely destroy the invading Persian enemies in the plains at the foot of Mount Olympus. The moment of glory is coming, and all that remains is the waiting before victory.

On the back of the white elephant running wildly, Zhou Qi bent down and held his shield, constantly blocking arrows from all sides. The body of the big white elephant with rough skin and thick flesh is full of dense arrow shafts, and after being injured, it stimulates its instinctive wildness. Rampage all the way, trampling anyone who dares to stand in front of him into a ball of meatloaf.

What made Artemisia feel angry and helpless was that Zhou Qi on the elephant's back not only used the damn healing technique to replenish the injured elephant's health in a timely manner, but also with the fire shining in his hand from time to time, one after another scorching fire bombs were still dropped from the elephant's back, and the violent explosion made the unstable queue under the impact of the elephant fall into a panic.

As chaos and panic continued to spread, she was getting farther and farther away from Zhou Qi, and the army's position became chaotic.

At this time, the trumpet of the Greeks attacking was heard in the distance! Artemisia's face changed dramatically! If he is allowed to toss, things will only get worse and worse, and no one will be able to lead a disorganized army to withstand the enemy's attack.

As everyone knows, Zhou Qi, who looks very happy on the back of an elephant, also has a hard time. As the mana decreases. He couldn't hold on any longer. He hoped that the white elephant would break out of the Persian camp in one fell swoop. But after being frightened, the big guy under him kept rushing left and right in the crowd. Can't stop at all.

Just as he poured the last bottle of tiny mana potion, perhaps the gods of Olympus really appeared, and the white elephant under him found a sense of direction and rushed headlong in the direction of the confrontation between the two armies.

"I'm rubbing! It's Zhou Qi's kid! Seeing Zhou Qi riding an elephant from a distance and not taking away a single cloud, Fu Yunsheng, who was stunned, couldn't help but burst out of Xia Ruobing's usual mantra.

"Sister Zhou, look! It's really him! Xiao Xiaoxiao's big eyes flashed and his mouth was open, and he pulled Xia Ruobing, who was also surprised by him.

"It's really a father, next time I don't want him to get a dinosaur for my sister and me." Xia Ruobing's face, which had been stiff, was like a sunrise in the clouds, blooming with an intoxicating smile.

As Zhou Qi kept approaching, Xia Ruobing's beautiful brows furrowed, and her gaze fell on Artemisia, who was following closely behind.

"Hmph, chasing so hard, you can really get into trouble!" She muttered something in a low voice, waved the big knife in her hand, and rushed forward.

"Ruobing!" Zhou Qi saw Xia Ruobing wielding a big knife from a distance, wind and rain in all directions! I couldn't help but shout excitedly. At the moment when he rushed out of the Persian army array, he couldn't wait to turn over and jump off the elephant's back, and ran quickly in the direction where Xia Ruobing was.

Artemisia swung his sword and killed a Greek soldier who charged at her. followed Zhou Qi's footsteps and followed. When she saw Xia Ruobing facing Zhou Qi in front of her, her eyes suddenly lit up like never before! Attention was already fully focused on her delicate porcelain doll-like face.

Looking at Xia Ruobing, who was rushing towards him, Zhou Qi greeted him with a smile on his face. The next situation made him Spartan instantly. The expected return of the milk swallow to the forest did not happen. I saw Xia Ruobing holding the big knife with both hands and passing by him, and slashed at Artemisia who was running behind him.

On the stunning face, two pairs of bright eyes ignited sparks in an instant. Nothing to do with Zhou Qi (God knows), the battle unfolded fiercely with Xia Ruobing's slash on the head. The dexterous twin swords and the heavy broadsword collided constantly. Two tall figures are on the battlefield, like two iron butterflies, fluttering.

In the midst of the confrontation, Artemisia swung his twin swords into infinite illusions, taking the lives of a Greek soldier beside him. Similarly, Xia Ruobing's powerful broadsword always slashed the Persian soldiers who stood between her and her opponent.

"I say, the woman is Artemisia? You didn't do anything with her, did you? Fu Yunsheng leaned back against Zhou Qi, who had just pulled out the scimitar from the enemy's chest, and asked with a puzzled face. A series of shots burst into the head of a small enemy.

"What did you do with her" Zhou Qi's face was full of depression. Looking at the figures of the two women from a distance, the faster they fight, the faster they fight. In the battle just now, Artemisia didn't seem to use all his strength. And at this moment, Xia Ruobing's skills are beyond her cognition.

"Ground Split!" The big knife in Xia Ruobing's hand lit up with white light, setting off a large wave of qi and covering Artemisia's whole body. And Artemisia also lit up with black light with his twin swords and activated his skills. The two short swords intertwined into a black web of light. Fiercely greeted him.

There was a loud "boom", like Mars hitting the earth, and the shock wave formed after the collision of the two skills instantly cleared a large open space. The soldiers on both sides began to intentionally or unintentionally avoid the range of the two women's fighting. Around them, a rare vacuum was formed on the battlefield of fierce confrontation.

Prior to this, Zhou Qi had used insight on Artemisia while she was chasing after her, and saw nothing except a string of question marks. In the collision just now, as I guessed, several Persian generals and generals who had come into contact with each other had their own unique skills.

At this time, the battle line began to move forward as the Persians continued to shrink. From afar, Zhou Qi had already seen Xerxes's demon-like tall figure.

At this time, Xerxes was on the verge of going berserk, and he learned the news of the defeat of his huge fleet from the herald who had just been smashed in two by him with an axe!

The Greeks launched a surprise attack at night, and the rest of the army, along with the ships on the Aegean Sea, were all buried in the Aegean Sea last night, except for the landing troops!

The current situation of the war is becoming more and more unfavorable to itself, and the return route at sea has been cut off. Just one night! His rhetoric before setting off seems to have turned into a joke.

"Nope! No one can defeat the only true God in this world, no one can defeat the great Xerxes! He roared in his heart, these damn false gods sent messengers! As soon as he lifted the reins of his mount, the nightmarish black horse neighed and rushed forward, targeting Zhou Qi in his sight!

With his arrival, the Persian army, which was already on the verge of rout, let out a burst of cheers. Morale was instantly boosted. At this time, Xerxes, who was sitting on his horse and rushed to the front, happened to see that Artemisia was slashed by Xia Ruobing with a fierce knife when he was dodging the sneak attack from other contractors.

"Artemisia!" Xerxes roared, his eyes with a poet's temperament were filled with angry flames at this moment, and he raised the double-bladed golden giant axe high with one hand, like lifting a high mountain, and slashed at Xia Ruobing's head.

"Xerxes!" Zhou Qi was taken aback, and hurriedly used the Blessing of the Dead on Xia Ruobing, using half of his own health to add a shield to her that absorbed 300 points of damage.

Xia Ruobing, who had no time to dodge, supported the back of the knife with his hand and struggled to move up. In the loud sound of metal collision, the whole person flew out of the air like a floating leaf.

Xerxes' axe shocked all the contractors. Xia Ruobing's force, everyone knows something more or less. Especially Fu Yunsheng and Zhou Qi, it is even more clear that this girl has the strength to shake the difficult contractor. It's hard to imagine that Xerxes could be so powerful!

"Humph! I wanted you to represent the gods, witness the destruction of Athens, and let you witness your companions die one by one in front of you, as punishment for the crimes you committed for daring to deceive the great Xerxes. My momentary kindness has brought such consequences that you will soon be judged by me! Xerxes leaned over and took the injured Artemisia into the saddle, hugged him in his arms, glared at Zhou Qi with angry eyes, and said to him in a calm tone.

Zhou Qi released the reply to Xia Ruobing in his arms to treat her injuries. That astonishing axe, after the shield absorbed most of the attacks, still caused her a lot of damage. While silently staring at Xerxes. It's just a little bit close, and the task can be done.

Opportunities sometimes come and go in such a flicker. He finally led out Artemisia, but at the moment when he was about to succeed, he fell short. Now it seems that if you want to kill her, you must kill Xerxes along with you!

On the corpse-strewn battlefield, the victorious Greeks did not give the cheers they deserved. They silently gathered the bones of the robe. Replenish the deadly sword of the Persians who have not yet died.

In this battle, the Greeks annihilated most of the Persian invaders, only Xerxes had no intention of fighting after Artemisia was wounded, and led the remaining elite to retreat to the direction of Thermopylae Pass under the cover of sacrificing a part of the army. In the case of the sea route, he was able to reach northern Greece and return to Asia Minor from Macedonia to the Strait of Hellesbang by opening the passage of the hot springs from behind.

With Xerxes gone, the dark clouds over the Aegean Sea gradually dissipated. Rays of sunlight shone through the gaps in the clouds, on the calm sea, on the countless wrecks of ships and the corpses that drifted with the waves.

At this point, there are 18 hours left until the end of the mission.
