Chapter 421: The Battle of Troy (XXXIII) Divine Blood
The hero, whom the Greeks were desperately calling, was now in his camp, taking care of his close friend Patroclus, who had improved his health slightly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoNot long ago, he heard the sound of war and didn't pay attention to it, Achilles knew very well that a one-on-one heroic gladiatorial fight, and the frontal killing of Hector was definitely a blow to the morale of the Trojans.
However, the sound of the rolling wheels of the enemy bursting into the camp continued without stopping, and the shouts from all directions were filled with the anxiety of burning eyebrows.
Achilles realized that the battle might not be as smooth as he expected, and the Trojans, who had suddenly attacked, were ravaging the coalition camp full of holes, and he immediately got up and grabbed his spear and shield, and rushed out in a hurry before he had time to say goodbye to his close friends.
The deterioration of the war was beyond Achilles' imagination, and in his prediction, the Trojan chariot torrent was indeed powerful, but it could be cracked in a targeted manner, especially since there were many areas with complex terrain inside the camp, and it was very easy to make traps on the spot.
However, the thirteen knights in front of the rolling traffic, as if instructed by the gods themselves high above the clouds, each time found a safe passage for the Trojan chariots to rush through, like a sharp knife stabbing the Greeks into the vital point of the flotilla on the shore.
Achilles faintly smelled the dangerous smell of grease and flames, and he didn't even care about the chariot led by his entourage, and directly took a big stride to chase the meteor, and rushed straight towards this strange team of knights.
Along the way, no matter the ordinary soldiers in the direction of the advance, or the tents that turned into obstacles, they were directly knocked open by the inexplicable Achilles, and no one could stop his heart to protect the retreat of the Greeks.
Unfortunately, the Trojans also noticed the figure of the first Greek hero, wrapped the strip of cloth soaked in grease around the front of the arrow, approached the torch and lit it, and shot at the Greek warships lined up not far away.
The bottom of the paddle boat, which had been exposed to the sun and maintained in the sea, was dry and white, and in the blink of an eye, it was ignited by a rocket, and a salty sea breeze blew, and the fire spread rapidly and burst into flames.
"No!" Achilles saw the warship that stretched for nearly a thousand paces sinking into the sea of fire, his face turned red with anger, and his body suddenly swelled in a circle, and his speed was a little faster. As he passed a weapon rack, he snatched a javelin, aimed it at the knight's leader, and threw it with fifty percent of his strength.
The shadow of Senlen's spear slid quickly across the ground, and just as it was about to hit the target, the Amazon queen Penthesilea, raised her arm shield in her left hand and easily blocked Achilles' throwing spear away.
"Go ahead, this despicable and shameless man, leave it to me. ”
The Amazonian warriors were convinced of their queen, and despite losing the guidance of the god of war, they led the Trojan chariot behind them to a safer direction with their sense of danger that they had honed their instincts.
Bring vengeful warriors into battle, and bring them back safely. This is the creed of the Amazons, except for the queen who can be willful for her own selfishness, and the other Amazonian warriors take the initiative to take their own responsibilities.
Penthesirea galloped towards the Greek hero who attacked him, and with the help of his steed, he threw a javelin containing lightning with all his strength.
Achilles knew a little about the fighting skills of the Amazon, but he couldn't understand the strength of the Queen of the Amazon, so he only put his shield in front of Penthesilea's spear.
Unexpectedly, the ordinary texture of the javelin easily penetrated the bronze shield, and instantly bloomed a spider web-like lightning beam, if it weren't for the nine-layer cowhide wrapped behind the shield, Achilles had an invulnerable god body, maybe his left hand would have turned into charcoal.
However, Achilles himself is fine, it does not mean that others can survive safely, the Queen of Amazon's storm javelin, even if the lightning beam is splashed out in all directions, the aftermath is within the range, whether it is an ordinary warrior or a hero who has been famous for a long time, they are all burned into charcoal in an instant.
Lu Bin was pleased to find that the female demigod Penthesilea, who had killed seven Greek princes, three powerful generals, and twelve elite warriors with just one blow, and the results of the battle could be said to be unprecedented.
In the blink of an eye, Achilles saw his familiar companions and comrades, gray and smoky, turning into crunchy charcoal, and falling forever on this strange land, and he hated the leader of the enemy who led the Trojan chariot to wreak havoc on the fleet, and no longer cared about taboos, and threw a deadly shot at the Queen of Amazon.
As soon as the black spear made of the meteorite fragment was shot, Penthesilea sensed that the Grim Reaper's scythe was resting on her neck, and no matter what she did, she would inevitably die.
"No ......!"
The shadow of the spear that meandered and swam, it seemed to be very slow, but in fact it was unimaginably fast, and the queen of the Amazon did not react at all, and the black spear was like a poisonous snake that hunted its prey, and it slammed into Penthesilea's chest and ran through the heart.
The Greeks, who had been killed by the Amazonian warriors, immediately ran over to rip off the queen's armor, but Achilles moved faster. However, when he took off Penthesile's golden helmet and revealed the face of Melaua Phrodite, even after his death, he did not lose his charming and moving beauty, and the heroism in his eyes could not be broken.
The Greeks who rushed over to "take revenge", when they saw the face of the Amazon queen, they couldn't help but stop and dare not blaspheme. Achilles' heart was filled with remorse: "Such a stunning heroine, I should defeat her with my own hands, bind her hands, become my captive, and bring her back to her hometown the next day, and officially marry her wife, so that I can give birth to better children." ”
After the Greeks were shocked, they did not dare to show blasphemy to the Queen of Amazon, and the increasingly dangerous battlefield, the warships lit everywhere, needed more manpower to rescue, so they immediately left, leaving Achilles alone, in a daze near Penthesile's body.
Lu Bin squinted his eyes and looked up at the sky where the dark clouds suddenly converged, and the roar of thunder explosions was obviously not a normal natural phenomenon, but the anger of a certain god.
"Here he is! His favorite daughter was killed by Achilles, how could Ares, who roared on the battlefield......, not be angry? Even Zeus, the father of the gods, did not stop him, and it seems that the head of the army really wanted to kill Achilles. ”
The majestic figure of the mountain, from the holy mountain above the clouds, descended with rolling thunder, and the speed of Ares was as fast as lightning, and it fell on the camp of the Greeks, shattering twelve tents on the spot, and the ground sank down to the top of the pit, and the ground shook like waves, causing ripples around it.
Before the dust and smoke of the hustle and bustle had settled, Ares launched an attack with a sharpshooter, and the lightning-like zigzag blade fell on Achilles's body like a shower.
Unfortunately, the Son of Thetis possessed an invulnerable god, and even the weapons of the god of war could not be harmed, at most leaving only a shallow white mark, not even the slightest wound.
"Uh......" The god of war, who was carried away by the pain of losing his daughter, found that Achilles was uninjured and had somewhat regained some consciousness, and he wanted to say something about the scene.
Unexpectedly, Lu Bin, who had become a phantom, watched the battle for a long time, just waiting for the fleeting opportunity at the moment. As the "father" of the child of destiny, he spent a little source to influence Achilles to pick up the meteor spear and stab the head of the army that was about to leave the earth and return to the holy mountain of Olympus.
With a "hiss", the extremely sharp tip of the spear penetrated through the armor made of Kobelco and stabbed the arm of the god of war, Ares, and the god's blood erupted violently like flowing gold, splashing on Achilles's body, dotted like a corner of the starry sky.
The leader of the army was shocked and angry by the arrogant actions of the mortal in front of him, but the dark clouds gathered in the sky and let out a constant thunderous roar, which was obviously the order of the father of the gods.
Ares, the god of war, did not dare to disobey the will of Zeus, and roared like the shouts of thousands of people, shaking the ears of ordinary people and losing their hearing. He stretched out his hand to cover the bleeding wound, and his majestic body turned into lightning, and in an instant he leaped into the depths of the sky, returning to the sacred mountain of Olympus.
Even if Achilles is killed, he will be reborn in the dark and lightless underworld, get the name of the god I bestowed, and become the god of war of the fourth generation of the divine court in the future. ”
Lu Bin couldn't help but laugh and left, leaving Achilles in a daze. It didn't take long for him to break free from the effects of the warcry of Ares, the leader of the army, and continue his pursuit of the Trojan chariot.
However, it was really a little late for him to start his action now, and the Amazon warriors had already led the Trojans out of pursuit and disengaged from the Greeks. Before leaving, they set fire to a coastline that stretched for nearly five miles, and burned more than 600 rowboats, which were damaged by the rapid spread of the fire.
In this way, not to mention going to sea to plunder daily supplies such as grain and livestock, even the Greeks wanted to retreat and leave, which became a luxury.
The bewildered people, sitting or standing, stared blankly at the charred wreckage, they had no way to retreat, except to storm the city of Troy, which would run out of supplies in a few days, and starve to death here.
The military priest Karcas received a prophecy from the gods of the sacred mountain: "With the consuming plague and the flames that burn everything, the great hero sacrifices the altar to break through the city." ”
The first is the misfortune of Apollo the long-range shooter in order to punish Agamemnon for harshly blaming the priests of the sun, the second is the disaster that happened to the Greeks not long ago, and the last two are supposed to be what will happen in the future.
The respected prophet immediately told the commander of the coalition that Agamemnon was well versed in the power of kings, and after a moment of thought, he understood that the son of Thetis, who was a thorn in his side, was about to enter the dark and lightless underworld.
On the surface, Agamemnon was indifferent to this, but the clenched fists and the whitish strength of the bones silently revealed the mood of the allied commander at this time.
"The oracle can't be wrong, Achilles, you're going to die!"
