Chapter 406: The Battle of Troy (18)
"Just a person? I kind of admire you, god-like Achilles. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Orpheus saw the son of Thetis driving alone, even until the Greek warrior behind him followed, nodded his head in his heart, and leaped forward, the wings of the bird of paradise behind the garment suddenly spread, and his body fell slowly as light as a feather.
The twenty-pace-wide moat was cleaned up by Aeneas and restored to its original appearance. Orpheus stepped on it as if he were walking on land.
The sharp-eyed Achilles saw that Orpheus, a member of the Argonauts of the previous generation and a member of the Argonauts, had the ability to walk on water, and his dark pupils suddenly widened, and then he came back to his senses and remembered the origin of this genius violinist.
Pedasus, a two-bladed steed with a high shoulder, had long been tamed by the sons of Thetis, dragging a two-wheeled chariot across the plains of Skanmantel, and the hooves of horses as large as millstones kept beating the ground like a dozen drums sounding the horns of battle.
Orpheus reached out and brushed the strings, and the invisible sound crossed the distance in an instant, condensing into a sharp axe blade that sliced the frame with a bang.
If Achilles hadn't grabbed the reins in time and the chariot and horse had separated, Pedasus would have continued to gallop forward, and the two-wheeled chariot would have fallen to the ground, and he would have lost his footing, lost his balance and fell.
The two opposing camps of the Battle of Troy, any hero who became famous, will avoid damage to his reputation, and if he is humiliated in front of others, it is a great feud regardless of life and death.
The god-like Achilles reacted in time, and when he was dragged out of the car by the divine horse Pedasos, he grabbed a wooden javelin and launched a deadly attack on the muse son who had not yet officially taken his face.
Orpheus saw the javelin cut through the light mist of the morning light, noticed a faint heat in his chest, and immediately understood that his body was being targeted by the other party, and felt the trajectory of the deadly attack.
With a "poof", his index finger brushed over the black strings, and the deadly notes formed a shield full of sharp barbs out of thin air, and the javelin thrown by Achilles hit it, and in the blink of an eye, the volley exploded into slag.
Undiminished in power, it continued like an arrow from a string, turning into a sharp blade like an axe, and slashing down at the son of Thetis.
The god-like Achilles immediately sensed the danger coming, and in order to protect the divine horse that he had managed to find to match his identity, he could only let go and let Pedasos leave, and his body slid forward due to inertia, so as to slow down the speed.
With a "bang", the notes of the black strings of the lyre resonated, and the invisible blade of evolution quietly fell, if it weren't for Achilles' quick decision, even men and horses would have been shrouded in the range of attack.
He has an invulnerable divine body, and he will definitely not be injured, but the divine horse Pedasos only has the physical strength and endurance comparable to that of a monster, but he does not have the special physique that matches the divine beast, and he will definitely be severely injured and killed under this blow.
When Achilles stopped, he saw a cubit-deep, twenty-pace-long trench appear out of thin air, like a bronze ox grazed by a giant, dragging an iron plough over a field of loose soil.
"Terrible man! This is the best of the heroes of the previous generation, with fangs that tear the earth apart with just one finger plucking the strings. ”
Achilles's mood was not only not timid and fearful of war due to the imminent danger, but further boiled and soared, after all, within the coalition army, even if he studied martial arts in private, because the heroes around him were relatives and friends, he really couldn't let go.
If it is a hostile camp, the hero of the Trojans, Achilles is very happy to unleash his full potential, and vent all the pressure and excess negative emotions accumulated in the recent period.
Moreover, being able to compete with the heroes of the previous generation, and even gambling on the cost of his life to start a bloody battle, is also something he is keen to yearn for.
Despite the loss of his divine horse Pedassos, the god-like Achilles did not hesitate to waste his physical strength, and took the step of chasing the meteor and rushed towards the son of the muse, who stood alone in front of the walls of Troy.
Orpheus saw a gray shadow speeding across the verdant meadows, and immediately understood the god-like Achilles' eagerness for war, but he did not take it seriously.
Four fingers brushed over the black strings in turn, and the deadly notes transformed into invisible swords and axes, faster than the sons of Thetis, and slammed into him.
"Wow...... Woo"
In other words, the attack that ordinary people had already been killed by the corpse fell on the god-like Achilles, leaving only a few faint white marks, and even the god-given armor on his body was not damaged in the slightest.
Orpheus frowned slightly: "The legend is true! Thetis, the goddess of the sea, used the water of the River Styx and the Heavenly Fire of the Holy Mountain to refine the body of her only son, so that he had an invulnerable god-like physique, that is, the level of the giant lion of Nemia and the sea giant Antai. Interesting!"
Achilles saw the white marks on his hands and legs, and although he was not hurt, he was wary of the sound of the muse's piano: "It can leave traces on my invulnerable god's body, and this hero of the previous generation has sent an attack comparable to a divine weapon." Except that I can ignore and change to other Greek heroes fighting, and a few of them will end up dying. No wonder the Great Ajax will fall into the hands of the other party, how can he be undefeated when he encounters the god-like Orpheus. ”
In order to prevent his allies from dying at the hands of the Muses, Achilles took his responsibility very consciously - to eliminate the enemies who threatened the upper echelons of the coalition forces, even against the Greek heroes of the previous generation.
Orpheus sensed the thoughts of the son of Thetis, and the killing intent as thick as substance rushed towards him, almost suffocating, and couldn't help but nod slightly.
"Provoked by my provocation to take the initiative, you will understand my strength in two rounds, and you are ready to kill me with all your might? ”
Orpheus renounced all scruples and no longer played a single note conservatively, but the entire piece. The prologue is his first time on the Argonauts, where he feels the power of nature on the stormy sea, and composes an ode to Poseidon, the earth-shaker.
The music composed of a series of notes awakens the earth that has existed since ancient times, like the undulating sea, setting off waves without rhythm to speak.
The verdant turf rose high like a blow, and kept rolling in a certain direction, and the gentle earth shook and shook out of thin air, and the ripples like folds were so dense that even Pedasos, who ignored the terrain, was thrown to the ground, and was sent back to its original place by the "angry waves of the earth" set off by Orpheus, lying near the folded two-wheeled chariot.
As for the god-like Achilles, he was also uncomfortable, although his feet were far stronger than ordinary people, but there was no place where he could exert his strength, and he could only run in vain, lest he be sent away by the music of Orpheus.
Lu Bin, who always pays attention to this battle, saw this scene, and couldn't help but think a little higher about the muse whose strength was second only to him, after all, he could suppress the god-like Achilles head-on, and he "couldn't move", so he could only jump on the spot, looking a little embarrassed.
"The scope of influence of Orpheus's music, which is initially estimated to be 100,000 square meters, that is, 10 hectares, can affect the natural world so deeply that even the most stable nature of the earth can change the terrain at will, and it must have condensed its own territory. It's just that I can't figure out whether it's the music field or the earth field. The former is a further extension of inheriting the blood of the muse and having a genius piano skill, while the latter is an extension of the duties of the gods of the mountains, forests and rivers when he enters Mount Helikon. ”
The music dedicated to Poseidon, the earthshaker, has an end even if the score is long, and when the lingering notes of the last tune quietly dissipate through the strings, the ups and downs of the earth subside.
"Opportunity!" The god-like Achilles keenly caught the fighter, and as soon as his sinking body stood firm, his legs immediately rushed forward.
In just three breaths, he stepped a distance of nearly one hundred and fifty steps (equivalent to 100 meters), as if he had teleported, and appeared in front of Orpheus, the meteorite spear raised high, the pitch-black tip of the spear shining with a cold edge.
Unexpectedly, Orpheus responded faster than Achilles, and the prologue of the majestic music had just ended, and the strings played a pleasant tune again, different from the previous magnificence, but the pleasant and charming flowing water, which was very much embedded in the moat that protected Troy behind him.
With a "boom", the slowly flowing river suddenly erupted into a column of water with the thickness of the three of them, hitting the god-like Achilles head-on, faster than his coming, and violently shaking the son of Thetis back.
More and more people watched the battle on the city walls, and when they saw this scene, they couldn't help but exclaim, and then they saw that the column of water that had repelled Achilles was only a part of some behemoth, or even just its arm.
As the surface of the moat rapidly lowered as far as the eye could see, a giant made entirely of river water struggled to its feet, its hands reaching up to the battlements of the Trojan royal city.
Lu Bin smiled in surprise: "Built by Sea King Poseidon, a twenty-bladed male city! The freshwater giant evoked by Orpheus is at least fifteen meters tall, and it has surpassed my quarry colossus and war treeman. If it weren't for the texture that made up the body was ordinary river water, its challenge would definitely be legendary. ”
"My River Valley Beast Wave Enchantment can become more perfect. I've had the heart to upgrade this enchantment card for a long time, but unfortunately I haven't been able to find a freshwater giant that meets the requirements, so I have no choice but to replace it with water elementals. I didn't expect to see the hope of perfection in Orpheus, which was incredible. ”
The god-like Achilles was pushed back by the high-speed water flow like a fountain at a distance of thirty meters, that is, twice the height of the freshwater giant, and the front end of the iron pillar suddenly collapsed, and in desperation, he could only throw down the son of Thetis, and the spiritual water retracted back to the body.
Lu Bin nodded lightly when he saw this scene: "The effective attack distance of the freshwater giant is thirty meters, which is quite an outstanding performance, and it can be regarded as a relatively eye-catching embellishment in today's battle." ”
Achilles' invulnerable body, even the divine soldiers can only leave white marks, and they are not afraid of the water flow of ordinary texture at all, but the power given by it far exceeds the upper limit of what he can bear, so he is easily repulsed.
Now, the son of Thetis had regained his strength, learned from his defeat, and once again rushed forward, convinced that by closing the distance, he would be able to unleash a stormy attack that would make the god-like Orpheus so hurried that he could no longer play a passive defensive tune.
It's a pity that the son of the muse, who has extraordinary ability to control the field, is determined to distance himself and torture Achilles to death, not wanting to give him a stage to show his full strength.
The first round is over, the second round begins!
