Chapter 409: The Battle of Troy (31) The Two Heroes
The strongest heroes of both factions, under the watchful eye of the Hellenic coalition and the Trojan alliance, step into the gladiatorial arena specially prepared for them. The blood-soaked soil www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion emerges a strange rose red, and the once verdant grassland has now become a loose and dry yellow sand.
Hector, who drove out of the royal city of Troy, wore a helmet stained with enemy blood and turned dark and pale with a god-given shield on his broad back, on which was the eye-like emblem of Apollo the long-range shooter, capable of resisting long-range attacks, and even deflecting arrows and throwing spears.
Achilles ...... Achilles ...... Achilles"
Hector stretched his hands as far as he could to steer the chariot, and after rushing out of the royal city, he did not stop, and rushed directly towards the first hero of Greece, not looking like he was going to die at all, but to a grand dinner.
Achilles, who was also a clever man, immediately understood his opponent's strategy, he stretched out his left hand and grabbed the reins of the divine horse Pedasos, shook it slightly, and the reins that swung up and down hit the back of the mount lightly and heavily, giving the command to charge.
In his right hand, he pulled out a two-bladed javelin from the pouch on the outside of the body, weighed the center of gravity of the gun, and then with the help of the speeding chariot, he threw a tentative shot at Hector, who was rushing straight at him.
With a whoosh, the javelin thrown by Achilles, in the morning light, was accompanied by the cold shadow of the gun, and roared towards the target.
Hector saw the enemy attack first, and as soon as he shot his spear, he caught a miserable white light that pierced his chest, and without hesitation, he turned around and resisted the blow with the sun shield on his back.
"Click", the ordinary texture of the javelin, could not shake the shield containing divine power, the body of the gun broke into several pieces in response, and the tip of the gun was even more shattered into a small ball of wood slag.
The two two-wheeled chariots had no intention of stopping, and rushed straight towards their opponents, and as the distance between the two became closer and closer, the warriors on both sides couldn't help but feel nervous, and their faces were more serious than ever.
Everyone knows that chariots that collide with each other at high speed will not only kill the horse on the spot, but the superimposed impulse can severely damage or even kill the people on the vehicle.
Whoever can't resist flinching first will fall into the downwind position, and be specially installed on both sides of the opponent's wheels, breaking the horse's hooves and feet, and severely damaging one side of the wheel, causing the chariot to lose its balance and the hero on the chariot to be in danger.
Unfortunately, both sides were cold-hearted and hard-hearted fanatics, especially Hector, who knew that he was determined to die, and would never pull his horse to slow down or change the direction of the chariot.
As for the god-like Achilles, he will also not admit his lack of courage and strength in front of Hector, who is inferior to him. So, to everyone's surprise, the two sides drove the chariots and crashed into each other.
First, the horse in front of him collided head-on, and at a high speed of 180 kilometers per hour, even Pedasos, a divine horse driven by Achilles, could not bear it, and his neck twisted and broke and died on the spot.
However, Pedassos's larger body than ordinary war horses still had a slight advantage, suppressing Hector's horses of sea blood, and pounced most of the exploding flesh towards the Trojan general.
The collision was followed by the two-wheeled chariot, and although the front baffle was cast in bronze, under such a violent impact, it was still twisted and deformed on the spot, making a soft sound of gold and iron, like a signal to retreat after the end of the battle.
Unfortunately, the battle between Hector and Achilles had just begun, and due to the strong inertia, when the carriages collided with each other and had to stop, the two flew up in unison.
At such a close distance, there was no room for ordinary people to react after thinking about countermeasures, and Hector and Achilles attacked almost at the same time, and the fighting instinct of their bodies exceeded their consciousness before they attacked.
Achilles grabbed the black iron spear made by the meteorite fragments, and took advantage of the slightly longer weapon to stab the opponent's shoulder first, but unfortunately the shoulder armor was so thick that it couldn't be pierced, just passed by.
Immediately after, Hector's sword inspired a dazzling sunlight, and even Achilles' eyes, which were inevitably affected, instinctively prepared to close, and the tip of the sword instantly pierced through the shiny breastplate.
If it weren't for the fact that Achilles had an invulnerable god body and could not even be harmed by the weapon blessed by the sun god Apollo, Hector's attack would have disemboweled.
It is a pity that under the edge of the sword, only a finger thick breastplate was cut in two, easily cut like butter by a hot knife.
The heavily armed Hector was even heavier, so he was under Achilles, and if it weren't for the Aegis on his back, he wouldn't have been able to stop the attacks of the first Greek hero.
Eventually, the two staggered up and down, and Hector's left shoulder armor was plowed into a deep dent, but Achilles' breastplate was split in two. In the eyes of the spectators on both sides, it seems that the Greek heroes are slightly inferior, but this is not the case.
Achilles regained his breath very quickly, and as soon as he landed on the ground, he raised his shield in his left hand, and rushed towards Hector with a gun in his right hand, and on the way around the carriage, he removed his breastplate of his own way - with Achilles' invulnerable god, he did not need any protection at all, but in order to respect tradition, in order to respect his opponent, he still appeared fully armed.
Hector immediately removed the shield from his back, and when he saw Achilles approaching, the god-blessed sword once again bloomed with a bright light that took away the sight of his opponent.
However, the first hero of the Greeks had learned his lesson, and he closed his eyes and leaped forward, shrunk behind his shield, retracted the spear in his right hand at his waist, and stabbed at Hector.
Previously, the Lord of Troy would use his shield to resist the heavy blows of his opponents, but during these years, he was instructed by a god in the underworld to learn and master the art of unloading.
At the moment when Achilles' bayonet hit the shield, Hector suddenly became angry, took a step back, and swung his shield to block the bayonet diagonally back, skillfully defusing the opponent's heavy blow.
When the god-like Achilles' attack missed, and a look of surprise appeared on his face, Hector swipped his sword and swiped him on his head, and the helmet inlaid with wolf mane was knocked off on the spot, revealing his long black hair.
Hector saw the anger on his opponent's face, and his mood relaxed, and the expression on his face remained unchanged, but the pleasure in his eyes was unreservedly displayed in Achilles' vision.
The first hero of Greece was only amused by the strange martial arts that the Trojan commander showed for the first time, he knelt on one knee and turned on the spot, the pitch-black bayonet spear was rounded against his neck, as if it was extremely fast, and the sharp tip of the spear set off a terrible wind hiss on the spot.
Hector didn't think about it, he took half a step forward, squatted down slightly, withdrew his shield to minimize the striking surface, and then felt the impact of the galloping war horse, and the whole person was shocked back and moved sideways on the spot like thunder, at least three steps away.
"If you are beaten passively, you will only be defeated and killed, and only by taking the initiative to attack can you find out the flaws of the son of Thetis! The god who instructed me in the dark said that the god-like Achilles was invulnerable all over his body, and there was only one place where he was still a mortal physique. If he didn't even have the last flaw, Achilles would not be a mortal, but a true god. ”
Hector remembered every word Lu Bin had said, and remembered the process of uniting Kuknos and Aeneas to suppress Achilles, ignoring the fact that his left hand holding the shield fell into a state of soreness and weakness, and his squatting body kicked the ground violently, picked up his sword to stimulate the light of the sun, and then frantically slashed without any moves to speak of, like a storm, sprinkled on the god-like Achilles.
Before the son of Thetis could react, the invulnerable god body was slashed seventeen times by his opponent, and twenty-three times, not sparing his forehead, shoulders, neck, waist, thighs, knees, calves, and ankles.
Achilles immediately understood Hector's intentions, and his secret was known only to himself and his mother, but it was not a good thing in the eyes of those who had a heart.
The son of Thetis immediately fought back, holding a shield forged by Hephaestus, the god of fire and craftsmen, in his left hand, and erupted in a scorching wave of heat that nearly suffocated Hector.
Immediately afterwards, Achilles stood sideways, and the bayonet in his right hand went around the back of the neck, pressed against the notch at the upper end of the shield, and stabbed Hector like a torrential stab, and because of the speed, the tip even accumulated into a ball of spear with the size of a bowl.
Attacking against attack, cracking the opponent's madness on the spot, forcing Hector to switch to a one-handed shield defense.
With a thud, Achilles' spear repeatedly struck a certain point in the opponent's shield, and the three-finger-thick bronze shield shattered due to metal fatigue, and even Hector's arm would have penetrated if it had not been for the nine layers of cowhide wrapped in the back.
Moreover, the Trojan lord was already unbearable after hundreds of Achilles' jabbot attacks, and when he noticed that the shield was shattered, he immediately discarded the extra fragments, cut into the blind spot of Achilles' vision without retreating, and his sword-wielding right hand once again tested the definite weakness on his back.
The back of the neck, shoulder blades, spine, tail vertebrae, elbows, buttocks, thighs, calves, there is not even the slightest find, and all that the sharp sword can leave is a shallow white mark.
Achilles knew very well in his heart that not only the tens of thousands of people present were watching this battle, but even the gods were also watching, not wanting his biggest secret to be exposed, he immediately turned around on the spot, opened his mouth and took a deep breath.
Hector felt the aura around him change violently, like a gust of wind in place, almost suffocating himself. Immediately afterward, he saw Achilles' chest rise high, and Hector's extraordinary insight made Hector understand that the first hero of Greece was ready to perform a war cry that would awe-inspiring the enemy.
Not wanting to be the target of the god-like Achilles, he grabbed the hilt of his sword with his left hand, grabbed the sword and stabbed it into the mouth of the son of Thetis.
Although Achilles possessed an invulnerable divine body, his soft tongue and throat may not be able to resist the divine blessings. As a last resort, the son of Thetis could only stop the roar of thunder, his open mouth slamming shut, and two rows of dense teeth gripped Hector's sword.
No matter how much his opponent continued to push forward or tried to pull back, the god-like Achilles did not let Hector succeed.
The sharp-eyed Greek No. 1 hero, looking at the gap between his opponent's helmet and breastplate, held the spear in his right hand, and stabbed Hector's throat violently.
