Chapter 149 There are many tribulations, and the pride is gradually lost
Although the Greek coalition knew that they would win, they did not know the difficulty of this battle, so they encountered many difficulties on the way to Troy in the fleet, many heroic beasts in the sea and even a demigod sea beast in the shape of an octopus attacked such a huge fleet as them, if it were not for the fact that there were many heroes in their fleet, they could barely behead the demigod sea beast covered with slime and tens of millions of tentacles under the joint force of losing one-fifth of the soldiers.

In addition, there were many peace-loving gods who used all kinds of strange means to stop the advance of the coalition army, for example, at the beginning and the most difficult, because Agamemnon's boasting made the goddess of the hunt Artemis very angry, she let her best friend who held the authority of the wind make the harbor calm, and the ships could not sail out of the Gulf of Orris at all, and finally Agamemnon sacrificed his daughter Iphigenia born to Clytemnestra to Artemis for the sake of the coalition army. After that, the storms and even the tsunami whirlpools of various sea gods made the coalition forces suffer greatly, and some soldiers even began to doubt the possibility of winning or losing this war.
Fortunately, the Greek coalition found land after a tsunami storm and reached the coast of Mysia, which was ruled by Therephos, the son of Hercules. The fleet docked at the side of his domain, but the Greeks, who had finally seen land, were excited to think that they had reached the shores of Troy and were wreaking havoc on the territory of Telephos.
And Telephos, who was in danger of his territory, immediately gathered his team to lead the army to fight and defend his territory. A bloody battle ensued between the coalition forces and their friends. Even the gods of the Olympian Realm had turned their attention to it, some hoping to persuade the Greek coalition to return, while others were eager to wipe out the Greek coalition to prevent it from endangering their religious dominions.
In order to be in this battle, Telephos really fought hard and used the secret method of burning life and even essence blood taught by Oedipus, who is the god of life, to completely raise his seismic authority to the level of gods, and the powerful leyline fluctuations not only sank the entire coast of Mysia by several meters, but also dozens of heroes in Greece were injured, and even Achilles, who was not inferior to the gods in combat power on land, was also shocked out of internal injuries, or after a night of hard work, Telephos was forced into the city and held behind closed doors.
It was not until the next morning that the crowd realized that this was a misunderstanding, and that they were not fighting the enemy, but with their allies. I can't help but feel deeply sad. But there was no way to do it, even if they felt the influence of some unknown gods on them, they could not lift it. But even so, the Greek coalition did not abandon its goal because of the gods' discouragement.
Later, the unrelenting Greeks made a pact with Telephos, who promised to help the Greeks. However, he was reluctant to go to Troy with the Greek army, because his wife was the daughter of the Trojan king Priam, and he could not fight his father-in-law. This is not a big deal for the Greek coalition, they have the confidence of the world's most powerful country, and the confrontation with Thelephos in this land war gives them the confidence to fight the world alone.
The Greek coalition continued to set out on Troy with the resources obtained from Telephos, and this time the Greek expedition to Troy was very smooth, and the tailwind on the sea pushed the fleet to chop the waves at a rapid pace. The coast of Remnos on the Trojan border is already looming, and not far from Remnos lies a small island called Kreise. The altar of the goddess Chrysey, the island's patron, was built on this desolate island.
The Greeks had heard the prophecy that they would only succeed in capturing the city of Troy if they stopped at the island of Chrysey on the way to offer sacrifices. Therefore they had to find the altar and make sacrifices to the goddess on the altar, the altar of this small island that had been built by the great hero Iason, who led the heroes of the Argot ship to the capture of the Golden Fleece by Colcastas. It was also on this altar that Hercules, the great son of Zeus, was about to take revenge on Raomedon because of his humiliation and was preparing for an expedition to Troy.
Hercules' friend Philoctetes, who knew the location of the altar well, volunteered to bring the heroes to the altar. So the leaders of the heroes followed Philoctetes with them. The island is deserted, with low bushes spreading everywhere. In a few moments, they saw the half-collapsed altar.
But just as the heroes were walking towards the altar, a thick, long viper suddenly crawled out of the bushes, and it was the guard of the altar, and it bit Philoctetes' foot fiercely. Philoctetes screamed and fell to the ground.
The other heroes also reacted and hurriedly began to fight against the vicious altar guard, but the altar guard did not know what kind of authority he held, and he could see through all the heroes' moves, not only was he not cut by the heroes, but also sprayed a lot of venom to corrode the heroes' weapons. In the end, the heroes had to recruit Kael'thas, who had been stationed in the fleet.
Kael'thas is known as the Sunstrider, not only because of the power of fire, but also because he has an extremely powerful magic, no longer chanting and gesturing like the old mages, but only a thought. At this time, in order to strengthen his position in the coalition forces, Kael'thas came up with his own tricks.
Flames rose from his golden pupils, and countless flames ignited out of thin air, encircling the entire altar and the altar guards into a huge cage, and then several tigers with blue and purple flame bodies jumped out of thin air, and the tigers displayed more exquisite fighting skills than the heroes, and gradually dissipated the altar guards into wisps of black smoke.
All the heroes put themselves in their shoes and felt that this kind of magic was enough to deal with them from the perspective of trapping people or killing people, and the horror and admiration in their hearts reached their peak, and then saw Kael'thas 's indifferent and senseless expression, but directly began to praise Kael'thas for his powerful combat power, and even the injured Philoctetes didn't care, and the scene was not heroic, only a very despised evil atmosphere.
In the end, it took Philoctetes' incessant shouting to bring the heroes back from Kael'thas prowess. By the time the heroes ran to him, the venom of the snake had already invaded his body, and Philoctetes could not bear the severe pain, and moaned day and night. Pus and blood poured out of the wound, and the stench emanated from the wound, and the air around it was so polluted that it stinked.
The strong stench disturbed the Greek officers and men of the entire fleet, and everyone complained. In the end, the leaders of the Greek army decided to take Odysseus' advice and throw Hercules, the unfortunate friend, to some of the shores. So as the fleet passed through the island of Remnos, the leaders of the Greek army ordered that the sleeping Philoctetes be carried to the desolate shores of the island of Remnos. They placed Philoctetes among the rocks, and placed his bow and arrows, as well as his clothing and food, beside him.
The Greek coalition abandoned the hero in order to advance on Troy, and in the end, because of the lack of the hero's bow and arrows, they could not break through the city of Troy for nine years, and had to do many sins while maintaining food and grass. Despite the tenacity of the Greek coalition, their lack of compassion and morality eventually made their originally just war brutal and evil, and the evil created in it directly brought back the original evil god Tartarus, who had been expelled from the world of Olympus.
