Patroclus is dead.

His body was desperately snatched back by the Greeks, but the borrowed armor was stripped off by Hector and worn on himself as a trophy.

Soon, the Greeks informed Gu Yue of Patroclus' death.

In this regard, Gu Yue's heart did not fluctuate, but in order not to be suspected, he still had to play his current role.

Gu Yue hid his sense of self and allowed Achilles' memory instinct to take over, and said to the goddess of the sea who came to visit him: "My close comrade-in-arms Hector was killed by the enemy, and Hector also stripped him of his armor. That is my armor, a gift from the gods to Paleus when you get married. I must take revenge on Patroclus and kill Hector!"

The goddess of the sea said with tears in her eyes: "My child, please quickly abandon this idea, because the goddess of fate has long been predestined, and your end will come after Hector's death." ”

Gu Yue looked angry and shouted: "Even the god of fate can't let me retreat, only by killing Hector with a spear will my conscience be at peace." Otherwise, what face do I have to live in the world? Dear Mother, please don't stop me from going out to fight. ”

The goddess of the sea sighed, "You have a point, my child. Tomorrow morning, I will bring you new armor and weapons. You have to remember that you must not go out to fight until I come back. ”

After saying this, the goddess of the sea left the seashore and flew to Mount Olympus, where she found Hephaestus, the blacksmith of the gods, and asked him to help her child make a suit of armor and weapons.

Hephaestus was the son of Zeus and Hera, who was abandoned by Hera after birth because of his ugly appearance and lameness, and the goddess of the sea picked him up, placed him in a stone cave by the sea, and raised him, and was his savior.

"Noble Goddess, my benefactor, do not worry, I will make armor for your son, and I will be especially glad if the armor I have made will save him from death. ”

As he spoke, Hephaestus went to the stove and began to build his armor with his heart.

......

During this time, fierce battles continued outside the city of Troy.

With the help of Apollo's divine power, the Trojans were all wounded and fatigued, and their confidence was greatly boosted, and they took advantage of Patroclus's death to attack fiercely, and gradually forced themselves to the vicinity of the warship.

The Greeks were in a desperate situation, so they had to ask Gu Yue for help again: "Dear Achilles, we know that the enemy has robbed you of your armor and weapons. But even if you can't go to war, just show up in front of the Trojans, maybe they'll stop moving forward, and we can get some breaks. ”

At the same time.

The goddess Athena also quietly descended.

Because Paris gave the golden apple to Aphrodite, the goddess and the queen of heaven, both the goddess and Hera began to dislike Troy, and after the outbreak of the Trojan War, they sided with the Greeks and helped them destroy Troy.

The goddess came to Gu Yue and hung her shield on his shoulder, causing him to radiate the radiance of divinity.

In doing these things, Athena hid her form so that mortals could not perceive her presence.

But Gu Yue is an exception.

With the help of the power of time, he sensed Athena's arrival and approach very clearly.

Athena is the goddess of war and wisdom, one of the twelve main gods of Mount Olympus, and the divine power faintly revealed from her is vast, like an abyss, like a prison, compared to the sun god Apollo, how much stronger?

However, Gu Yue was not half happy in his heart, but was shocked and nervous.

The reason is very simple, in Gu Yue's perception, the soul breath of the goddess in front of him is almost exactly the same as the soul breath of Hongchen Ancient Ancestor, one of the four ancient ancestors that Fu Xi had simulated before.

This discovery shocked Gu Yue's heart, and the alarm in the depths of his soul was great, and his self-consciousness dived deep into the memory of Achilles himself, so as not to reveal the slightest flaw in himself.

Perhaps it was the disguise of the godhead of time that played a role, and Athena did not notice anything unusual.

Gu Yue got up and walked out of the tent, and drove his chariot to the front of the trench, but he did not make a move, but only roared at the Trojans from a distance.

Athena quietly followed behind him, exerting her divine power to amplify his voice countless times, spreading throughout the battlefield like a trumpet of a charge.

Such a change made the Trojans feel panicked, especially when they saw the ancient Yue Hou who was shining with divine brilliance, they were even more confused, their hearts trembled, and they hurriedly turned their chariots and horses and retreated.

This was a great opportunity for the Greeks to take advantage of the victory, but after a hard battle, most of the Greeks were wounded and exhausted, unable to catch up.

At this time, night gradually fell, so the two sides temporarily stopped fighting and returned to the camp to rest.

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning, the goddess of the sea returned from Mount Olympus with her, bringing back the armor and weapons that Hephaestus had crafted.

Gu Yue wore the armor on his body, holding a spear and a shield, majestic, as if the god of war was in the world, and the Greeks saw it from afar, and they were amazed.

Not long after, many Greek heroes also rushed to hear the news. Among them was Achilles' refusal to go to war, Agamemnon.

According to the normal script, Achilles should be bent on avenging his friend, so he chose to put aside his feud with Agamemnon.

However, Gu Yue didn't have a good impression of this person, so he didn't plan to give him this face.

"My resentment against you, son of Ajotes, has not gone away because of your rudeness to me, but the death of Patroclus has made me decide to put it aside for the time being. Now, let's go to the battlefield and fight the enemy in a decisive battle. Hector killed my friend and took away my armor, and such hatred can only be repaid with his blood. ”

Agamemnon had already decided to apologize for the previous faux pas and make amends, but he did not expect that the other party would still refuse to reconcile with him, which made his heart very angry.

However, the successive fiascos had worn away the arrogance and conceit in his heart, so in the face of Gu Yue's unceremonious words, although he was very angry, he did not attack.

In this way, the Greek heroes soon agreed and gathered their men to fight a decisive battle against the Trojans.

Meanwhile.

On Mount Olympus, Zeus convened a council of the gods and made a decision to allow the gods to decide freely to help the Greeks or the Trojans.

Because if he didn't, Achilles would have defied his fate and occupied the city of Troy.

So the gods chose their own side.

Hera, the queen of heaven, Poseidon, the god of the sea, Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom, and Hephaestus, the god of fire, brought Hermes to the ships of the Greeks.

Apollo, the god of the sun, Ares, the goddess of war, Artemis, the goddess of the moon, Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and Carmandelos, the god of the river, came to the walls of Troy.

Immediately, a fierce and brutal war inevitably broke out.
