Chapter 318: The Death of Patroclus

The earth-shattering shouts of killing came from far and near, reaching the camp tent, and Gu Yue raised his eyes to see that the Greek coalition army was retreating under the attack of the Trojans, retreating behind the trenches and walls near the warships.

The Greeks threw spears and arrows in an attempt to stop the Trojans from advancing and threaten their own ships, but to no avail.

The Trojans, under the leadership of coach Hector, are still forging ahead.

Dressed in armor, armed with shields and spears, Hector was imbued with a divine power that no mortal could possibly possessβ€”a power that Zeus himself had given to him when he did not want to see Troy fall.

With the blessing of divine power, Hector was invincible all the way, and the spears thrown by the Greeks could not pierce his shield and armor at all, but several Greek heroes died under his spears.

However, what made Gu Yue pay more attention was that in front of Hector, where mortals could not see with the naked eye, there was a god standing in front of the trench, and with a fierce step full of divine power, a great earthquake suddenly trembled, and the ditch was loosened, filling the trench.

Then the god stepped over the ditch, raised his golden shield and smashed it with such force that the walls that the Greeks had worked so hard to build collapsed. The Trojans, led by Hector, shouted and rushed into the wall, engaging the Greeks who had fled to the ships.

Gu Yue didn't pay attention to the bloody melee that followed, he was surrounded by a layer of time power, staring closely at the god hidden among the Trojans in the distance.

I saw that this god was tall and handsome, wearing a purple-gold robe, wearing a golden crown, and a thousand rays of brilliance around him, like a small sun descending on the earth.

This deity is none other than Apollo, the sun god Apollo, one of the twelve main gods of Mount Olympus.

The sun god was a god who supported the Trojan side, and the humiliation of the priests of the temple by Agamemnon, the commander of the Greek coalition, made the god more and more determined to take his position, and even went to the end of the battle himself, regardless of his identity, and directly attacked mortals.

At the same time, in the fate of the goddess of fate, the sun god Apollo is the very being who will kill Achilles.

For such a threat, Gu Yue must be doubly careful and vigilant.

Gu Yue looked at Apollo from afar, and felt a great power far beyond the imagination of mortals from him.

In the face of such divine might, the demigod strength that Achilles is proud of is completely a drop in the ocean, which can be wiped out.

"The strength of the twelve main gods is indeed extraordinary, if I don't reach the god level, even if I have time to be a godhead, it is only a little more likely to save my life. Moreover, although Apollo's power is strong, it is completely different from the aura of the four ancient ancestors, and he does not know what the identity of the four ancient ancestors is in this world. ”

Gu Yue thought secretly in his heart.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, and a man came from a distance, his face full of anxiety, but it was Achilles' best friend, Patroclus.

"Patroclus, my friend, what happened, and why are you so anxious?"

Gu Yue asked knowingly.

Patroclus sighed: "Achilles, the enemy has attacked the warship, and our bravest warriors, Diomedes, Odysseus, Agamemnon, and Ajax, have all been wounded and cannot continue to fight, and the situation has reached the most critical moment. I implore you to return to the battlefield and help us retake our ships, and not let the enemy cut us off from returning. ”

Gu Yue glanced at the battle on the distant warship, and said in the tone of Achilles: "Patroclus, you know, I don't want to see the Greeks defeated, but Agamemnon dares to despise me and take away my spoils, which I absolutely cannot tolerate. Just think about the fact that I fought the battlefield and the man who humiliated me was sitting back and enjoying the glory of victory, and my heart would be filled with pain and suffering. So, please forgive me for not being able to grant your request. ”

"My friend, your heart is cold. Patroclus said angrily, "Well, since you refuse to go into battle, allow me and your warriors to go to the aid of the Greeks." Lend me your armor to put on, and if the Trojans take me for you, maybe they'll be startled. I hope to give the Greeks time to regroup. ”

Gu Yue nodded and said, "If you want to fight, then I will fulfill your wish and take my armor." I personally went to gather my soldiers. ”

When Patroclus heard this, he immediately turned his anger into joy, and hurriedly removed Achilles' armor from the walls of the tent and put it on his body.

This armor was carefully prepared by the goddess of the sea for her son, and it is a well-deserved divine armor, of extraordinary quality, extremely strong, and the spears and shields that accompany it are also made by the gods, and the power is extraordinary.

Patroclus put on his armor and held a shield and spear, and suddenly felt a powerful force fill his body, and a strong confidence welled up in his heart.

Soon, Gu Yue gathered Achilles' men together, and a total of 2,500 battle-hardened elite warriors were handed over to Patroclus to lead.

Patroclus was overjoyed, immediately said goodbye to Gu Yue, and went straight to the battlefield with many soldiers.

Gu Yue looked at Patroclus's back and shook his head slightly.

He knew very well in his heart that if Patroclus went, he would die at the hands of the Trojans, as the goddess of fate had destined to be.

In the fate woven by the goddess of fate, it was precisely because of Patroclus's death that Achilles went crazy, and on the premise of knowing his fate, he still returned to the battlefield to avenge his friend, killed Hector, and finally died.

Of course, Gu Yue is not Achilles, so naturally he will not take Patroclus's life and death to heart.

......

Patroclus led his men to the battlefield and immediately joined the battle.

At this time, Hector's divine power had been consumed, and he was gradually tired, and the Trojans' offensive also slowed down.

On the other hand, the Greeks, under the great threat of being cut off from their way home, also burst into an incomparably amazing potential, putting great pressure on the Trojans, and the damage became more and more serious, and they had to start retreating.

At this time, Patroclus led a group of battle-hardened warriors into the battlefield and immediately dealt a heavy blow to the Trojans.

Patroclus was extremely powerful, and after wearing the armor of Achilles, he was even more unstoppable, killing several heroes of the Trojan side as soon as he entered the battlefield.

It was so powerful that it frightened the Trojans. They all thought that Achilles was coming, and they were so frightened that they scattered and fled regardless of the formation.

The evacuation, which was supposed to be a battle and retreat, suddenly turned into a rout, and even Hector could not turn the tide, so he could only try his best to cover the retreat.

Patroclus led the crowd in pursuit of the victory, all the way to the city of Troy, inflicting heavy casualties on the Trojans. He even once slaughtered the towers of the city of Troy, and broke through the blockade of the Trojans, and almost broke the city of Troy by himself.

But at the critical moment, Apollo, the sun god who favored the Trojans, personally intervened, blocking Patroclus' attack and knocking him back.

Later, the god used his divine power to restore the strength and morale of the Trojans, and went out of the city to meet the Greeks, and the two sides fought fiercely until late, and Hector, at the behest of Apollo, fought Patroclus, but could not be defeated.

Annoyed by Patroclus's bravery, the sun god hid his form, came up behind Patroclus, slapped him in the daze, broke his spear, and untied his armor.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hector pierced Patroclus' body with a single shot, taking his life.

In the distance, Gu Yue saw this scene in his eyes, and he didn't realize that the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, revealing a trace of ridicule.
