Chapter 122: Forty-Two Pillars of Hercules (3)
In the Pyrenees in northern Iberia, two huge giants have been circling in the mountains for half a month, and they have been pulled out of several mountains in their temper, and finally they have not gone around.
This is a pair of twin brothers, the elder brother is called Otos, and the younger brother is called Ephialtos, although they are the sons of the sea emperor Poseidon, they are also called the Aroadai brothers because their nominal father is Aroos.
Both of them were ten feet tall and powerful, and this time they were invited by the Iberian king Crysa Orr to deal with Hercules. It's just that I walked into the Pyrenees and got lost, and I couldn't turn out.
"Brother, where are we here, how do I feel that we are playing in circles, I'm afraid we can't catch up with the son of Zeus, right?" Ephialtos said depressedly as he looked at the south.
Otos was also at a loss, looked at the south and said, "We're going south, yes, why are we walking and walking and coming back!"
The two walked for a while, and Otos suddenly looked at his younger brother with a lewd smile and said, "Second brother, I heard that you like that girl of Hera?"
"yes, what's wrong?" said Ephialtos in an angry voice.
"What's so good about a woman who has given birth to a baby!" said Otos.
"You know what a fart!" Ephialtos was very angry when he heard this, and he punched him with a bang, but Otos didn't pay attention, and was punched by him and sat on the ground, and the tree was crushed by two.
"Hypnos said that only a married woman is feminine. Who is like you, who wants to rob Artemis, what good is her half-dead appearance? ”
"Your mother, dare to beat the eldest brother, see if I don't teach you a lesson!" Otos got up from the ground and roared and rushed towards the second child, and the two soon fought in the mountains, and many of the surrounding mountains were shaken by this.
Iberian Royal Palace
King Chrysaour walked up and down in one of the courtyards of the palace, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Aroadai brothers.
"Damn, it's about to go, these two brothers are still nowhere to be seen, they are the biggest combat force this time. Krusa cursed in his heart.
"Father, let's go, those two cowards won't come!" said the eldest prince Raul with a look of disdain.
The second prince Carlos also said loudly: "Father, the eldest brother is right, besides, we have so many heroes and heroes, will we not be able to beat the illegitimate ......son of Zeus?"
"Shut up!" Carlos could not finish his words, and was immediately reprimanded by his father Chrysa Orr and his eldest brother Raul.
The third Alonso saw that the second brother was stunned and didn't seem to understand what the problem was, so he quickly brought him to his side, pointed to his father and the four people invited, and whispered: "Second brother, are you crazy, Hercules is the illegitimate son of Zeus, and whose illegitimate son is our father and the few people invited, have you even forgotten your father's taboo?"
Carlos then understood, and hurried over to make amends to the four of them. The four of them sat in their chairs and squinted at the sky, ignoring him.
It turned out that these four people were also the helpers invited by Clysa Or, and they were also the sons of Poseidon, namely Salperdon, Villa, Alfonso and Torres.
They are both powerful and Poseidon illegitimate sons, and of course they don't take Carlos seriously, and if it weren't for the fact that Chrysa Orr said that Hercules killed Poseidon's descendants, and had the instructions of the Queen of Heaven, they would not have been willing to wade into this troubled water.
"Hehe, return the golden sword, I think it's better to call it broken copper and rotten iron!" Salpodon raised his eyebrows, glanced at the father and son of Klysa with disdain, and said loudly and sarcastically.
Carlos was furious, and was about to speak when Clysa raised his hand to stop him. Krusa Ohr stopped, looked at Salpodon, and smiled: "Brother Salperdon, do you have any opinions, you might as well say it directly." ”
"I have a fart opinion!" Salpodon suddenly stood up from his chair, looked at everyone, and sneered: "I don't believe that he Hercules has three heads and six arms, and so many of us are not his opponents, so we have to wait for those two fools to come?"
"Brother, have you heard of Antaeus?" Krusa Orr was not angry, and said with a wry smile: "It is said that Antaeus was easily defeated by him, and we have to guard against it, and one mistake will kill you!"
"In that case, why don't you bring your son Gerion?" said Villa, who was more cautious, puzzled, "Isn't he said to be infinitely powerful, with three heads and six arms?"
"Alas, it's all this time, and I won't hide it from you anymore. ”
Chrysaor's expression was straight, and he said in a low voice: "When Geryon was born, I asked the goddess of fate to pray for my son's fate, and she said that Geryon would be killed by the son of Zeus, and according to the time she said, it happened to be this year. ”
"Wouldn't it be better for you to let him come along?" Villa was even more surprised.
"The point is, the point is that the kid is afraid of water!" "Krusa O'er smiled bitterly, "he has been on that island since he was born, let alone on the boat, he doesn't even dare to go to the beach." ”
"Then why don't you ask the Father?" Salpodon knew that life and death were at stake, and he didn't lose his temper at this time.
"Well, I begged, but God said that it was inconvenient for him to come forward, and that Brother Aroadai was the one he asked me to invite. ”
As she spoke, Chrysa Oel beckoned to everyone, and several people were curious and immediately gathered around. I only heard him whisper: "Father also said that he and that boy named Excellence killed the sea monster Leviathan, you should know the horror of Leviathan, right?"
Several people gasped, obediently, that monster island is as big as the water, how did they get their hands?
After being silent for a while, the eldest prince Raul said: "Father, it's too late to set off, you won't really let those Berbers go, right?"
"Let's go, how do we let go? That is, we are willing to let go of our slaves, are the generals down there, are the slave owners willing?" Carlos sneered.
Seeing that everyone began to be silent again, the third prince Alonon said: "Otherwise, let's set off for Atlas Mountain, and send some people to the north to look for them, so that they can see the two brothers and immediately take them to the front line." ”
Krysa Ohr nodded: "There is only this way, you can arrange the search for people, and we will immediately order troops and set off." ”
The southern foothills of the Atlas Mountains
Because Hercules did not want to go to the Berber city, and insisted on staying here and waiting, Puglia had no choice but to leave some supplies and go back to the king, who was also his father, Pukki.
Puglia came early the next morning, but these troops looked like they were from a wild road in terms of personnel and equipment, and some of them were simply sharpened with a wooden stick.
Zhuo Zhuo sneered, and whispered: "Big brother, it seems that this Pu Ji has no confidence in us! You see that these people, standing or not standing, sitting or not, must be some hooligans recruited overnight. ”
"It's normal, I'm scared of being beaten by the golden sword!"
Hercules looked at him coldly, but there was no change in emotion. According to his intentions, the two of them went directly to Iberia to kill the golden sword, and let go of those Berber slaves and ended up, but they thought about being a general and leading the army to fight, so the two waited at the southern foot of the Atlas Mountain.
Puglia settled the men and immediately took them out again, and Excellence, who had thought he had little confidence in himself and fled, began to gather in the afternoon towards the Atlas Mountains.
Some of these people rode horses, some rode bulls, and some rode camels, and of course, more often walked with a pair of big steps, and they were dressed in a variety of ways. If the gang brought in before were newly recruited city people, then these were the most standard farmers.
Many people came to Hercules and immediately fell on their knees, shouting for their kindness.
Only then did Excellence understand that Puglia had gone to agitate the villagers. In my heart, I admired and disgusted them, these people had no combat experience, and once they encountered the regular Iberian troops, they would definitely be beaten to the ground, and they would simply be sent to death.
When it was almost dark, Puglia finally returned, bringing back 2,000 elite soldiers.
When Zhuo Zhuo saw him come in, he lifted him up, came to a distance, threw him to the ground with a snap, and sneered: "What do you mean by letting those peasants who have no combat experience come, do you let them fight, or let them die?"
Puglia's expression did not change, she slowly stood up from the ground, patted the dust on her body, and said unhurriedly: "They really don't have much combat experience, but they dare to fight hard, as long as they are not afraid of death, they will soon become a powerful force." ”
"You're a fucking madman, how many of them will survive a fight?"
"Hehe, those Iberians can run ten times a year, can they dodge once or twice, but can they dodge again and again?"
Pulia's eyes were extremely calm, and she looked at Zhuo Zhuo and said, "My lord, I guess you still think that I went to instigate it." In fact, why bother so much, find a few people who have been rescued by you, and go to a random village to talk about it, and immediately a large number of people are willing to come. And the people out there are still the result of my picking. ”
Excellence knows that what he said is the truth, when the day is precarious and life is threatened at any time, human beings are the most prone to eruption, but can these people do it?
"My lord, do you doubt their combat effectiveness?" Seeing that Excellence had a cold face and did not speak, Puglia said softly: "My lord has also seen the army I brought, and that is the army that really rushed to the front. Although my father did not dare to help you openly, he secretly brought in this army. ”
"Damn, your dad is such an old fox!" said Excellence hatefully.
Puglia sighed and said helplessly: "No way, since Chrysa Orr became king, we have never won against the Iberians, and if we do this, if we are not in a good situation, they also have an excuse not to be retaliated by the Iberians." ”
"Then you'd be wrong. Excellence looked at him and sneered, "The Iberians know all about this, and if we lose, they will definitely wash you Berbers in blood." So you either don't fight at all, or you mobilize all your forces, and this kind of little calculation is exactly what they like the most. ”
"I know, but I can't convince my father, let alone the noble ministers. Puglia slammed her fist into the nearby tree, hating the ground.
Excellence thought for a moment, looked at Puglia and said, "Those who came really have the determination to die?"
"I can guarantee with my life. Puglia said loudly.
"Well, you tell them tomorrow, and we'll cross the Atlas Mountain, and fight them there, and then we'll see how many people are left, and bring them all to the north. ”
