In the rugged mountain forest, filled with light mist, a figure quickly shuttled in front, wearing a hood, eyes locked on the terrain.
"Prince Paris, we didn't go the wrong way." After looking carefully, the man came back and said.
Pei Ziyun followed with a slave. This guide was arranged by King Menastheus. It is said that he was a hunter in the past and was very familiar with the mountains and forests.
It was this old hunter who saw the monster for the first time while hunting in the mountains. He reported the news to the kingdom. Later, more and more people saw the monster.
Under pressure, King Menastheus also sent people to kill the monsters, but the effect was not very good, and everyone who went there died.
However, it cannot be said that King Menastheus has no one to use. It can only be said that he has not been serious about it. This time Paris came to Greece, he had no intention of asking Paris for help, but Paris received the oracle from the gods. , so he changed his mind and planned to ask Paris for help regarding the monster.
Moreover, the king also heard about Paris killing the sea monster and the two-headed lizard, and knew that Paris was good at it.
After walking for ten miles, dense woods gradually appeared in front of us, and the road gradually became narrower. After continuing for two miles, the guide pointed to the mountains and forests: "Prince Paris, the road ahead is inconvenient. To cross this mountain again, you may have to use human power." You have to cut it down to get in.”
"It doesn't matter." Pei Ziyun said lightly, abandoned the horse, and left two slaves to look after it.
"How far will it take us to reach the monster's lair after we climb over this mountain?" Pei Ziyun asked.
"Prince Paris, the monster does not have a fixed nest. It usually has a range of activities. We only need to search in these places."
"The last time I met this monster, it was in a dense forest not far away. Later, when others saw it, it was also in the same location." The guide answered.
After climbing over the mountain, I looked up and saw a green, verdant mountain forest with layers of leaves. Blown by the mountain wind, it looked like turbulent waves. If there weren't monsters here, it would be a beautiful place. .
The slaves advanced silently under the guidance of the guide. The sound of cutting bushes could be heard in front of them. From time to time, slaves came back to report what was going on ahead.
Pei Ziyun was in the middle section, watching the forest getting denser and denser. It was almost entirely possible to cut through it by manpower. He knew that he was not far from the place where the monsters appeared.
At this moment, a man came to report: "Prince Paris, a bear was found one mile ahead. The bear was four meters tall, with hair all over his body, and his face was like a normal person. When I came back, the bear was still hunting wild beasts. "
"A giant bear?" Pei Ziyun muttered.
"Take me over and have a look." Pei Ziyun said.
"Okay, Prince Paris, please come with me." After saying that, the slave led Pei Ziyun to approach the bear man cautiously.
Through the lush branches and leaves, Pei Ziyun saw a giant bear-man devouring the remains of a beast. He felt it carefully, shook his head, and thought to himself: "It's still strong, but not direct."
The Bearman didn't know whose family he was descended from. It seemed pretty good, but in fact it wasn't a direct bloodline. It was probably a bloodline that had been separated for many generations.
While he was thinking about the method, Pei Ziyun suddenly felt his scalp numb. This was a gaze. He knew that it was the gaze of a god, and that a god was watching him.
"Which god could it be?" Pei Ziyun thought to himself.
Put the prying eyes aside for the time being and concentrate on observing the bear-man.
I saw that the bear man had a layer of hard armor-like fur covering his entire body, with thick limbs, sharp teeth, and red eyes.
Seeing that the remains of the beast were half eaten by it, I knew I couldn't wait any longer. I looked around carefully and saw a narrow gorge not far away, which was just right to lure the bear man in and set up an ambush.
So he made a gesture and slowly backed away with the slave just now to avoid disturbing the bear man.
"You ambush in the mountain gorge, hold your archers high up, and shoot arrows later to attract it." Pei Ziyun glanced at it and immediately issued the order.
The slave obeyed, and Pei Ziyun hid on a huge rock in the gorge, ready to kill the bear man at any time.
The surroundings were quiet, the sounds of birds and animals could no longer be heard, the wind seemed to have stopped, everything was still, and the war was about to begin.
The bear-man who was engrossed in eating the carcass of the beast seemed to be alert. It raised its head and looked around, hesitated for a moment, and was about to leave.
At this moment, how could Pei Ziyun make it leave? He gave the order: "Shoot."
The archer's bow string was loose, and several arrows shot towards the bear man with a "whoosh" sound.
"Puff, puff, puff" The arrows hit the bear man, and most of them bounced away. One shot went in, but because of its hard outer layer of fur, it did not penetrate deep into the flesh.
"Ouch." An angry roar came, and the bear man was angered by the bow and arrow.
"Shoot again." Pei Ziyun gave the order.
Several more arrows were fired at the bear man. This time it was prepared, and several arrows aimed at the front door were directly swatted away by it with its giant palm.
The bear man discovered the archer hiding in the gorge area, roared angrily, and ran towards the gorge.
It was on all fours, moving very fast, like a running giant bear, but Pei Ziyun knew that this bear-man was much more powerful than the giant bear.
A few more rounds of arrows were fired, but the bear man ignored them. Ordinary bows and arrows did not pose much of a threat to it, which was not what Pei Ziyun expected.
"Everyone, please take cover." Pei Ziyun reminded as he watched the bear man getting closer and closer to the gorge area.
The bearman quickly rushed into the narrow gorge area, but the archer stood high up. It could do nothing for a while and could only roar angrily at the archer high up.
Pei Ziyun, who was hiding on the boulder, saw that the archer had attracted the attention of the bear man. Knowing that the opportunity was rare, he jumped down from the boulder with a long sword in his hand. With the power of falling from a high place, he stabbed the bear man in the back with his sword.
"Poof!" Blood splattered, and Pei Ziyun's sword penetrated the bear man's back into a deep wound. It became ferocious, turned around and rushed towards Pei Ziyun, sweeping away with one palm.
Pei Ziyun stepped aside and avoided the bear man's attack. He stabbed in with another sword. The tip of the sword emitted a faint light, and there was a "pop" and blood splattered again.
In the narrow gorge, the huge size of the bear-man was inconvenient, but Pei Ziyun's body moved around in the gorge without any problem. After a while, the bear-man had several deep wounds on his body.
The bear man was not an idiot. After a few times, he realized that the terrain was not conducive to him. He roared and was about to rush out. At this moment, at the mouth of the mountain gorge, slaves stabbed up with more than a dozen spears.
The entrance was very small. Although the bear man's fur was thick, he couldn't withstand such a stabbing. "Ouch, ouch," it picked up a huge boulder on the ground and threw it towards Pei Ziyun.
Pei Ziyun watched the boulder coming and screamed secretly. He quickly dodged to avoid the boulder attack, but several screams came from the gorge.
Looking over, it turned out that the unlucky guide and two slaves had been hit by a boulder and seemed to have died on the spot.
"Bang." Another boulder was thrown, but Pei Ziyun dodged. The boulder hit the rock wall of the gorge, making a huge impact sound.
"These bears have brains." Seeing the slave array at the mouth of the mountain gorge beginning to become chaotic, Pei Ziyun's eyes flashed with a sharp look, knowing that he could not let the bears continue throwing boulders, otherwise the blockade would be broken.
Throwing down the somewhat damaged long sword, he took a bronze spear from the slave's hand and threw it at the bear man's bleeding wound.
The giant bear seemed to know the power of the spear. Its two giant palms desperately protected the bleeding wound. Once the spear came close, it would slap it away.
But Pei Ziyun's martial arts skills were so high that even if the bear man was well protected, he still found an opening. The bronze spear flashed, and there was only a "pop" sound. The bear man had a wound, and the spear penetrated it and penetrated it to the depth of a foot. .
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" The bear man was hit hard, his body trembled, but he still refused to fall. Pei Ziyun did not step forward and shouted: "Come again."
Several spears were handed over to him, and Pei Ziyun threw them again and again. The more injured the bear man was, the harder it became to avoid it. Suddenly, two or three spears pierced his body. He couldn't stand and fell down with a "bang".
A group of slaves cheered around, and everyone cheered happily for Prince Paris to kill the monster again.
At this time, Pei Ziyun still felt that the gods were watching him: "Damn it, if I kill the bear man and absorb the soul, will I be discovered?"
"If it is an ordinary god, it may not be possible to detect it. If it is an important god, it may not be able to hide it."
"Although I believe in the power of the system, even if the system cannot be detected directly, the sudden disappearance of the soul may attract attention."
"As for falling to the underworld, don't worry too much. That is the domain of Hades, and it is not of the same mind as Zeus."
"In Greek mythology, it is said that priests can feel the oracles and see the gods descending. A powerful person can even eavesdrop on the conversations of the gods in the Olympic Mountains. I am still relatively weak now. I can only feel that gods are spying on me, but Don’t know the reason.”
Pei Ziyun hesitated for a moment, but decided to spend his destiny points.
Following the call, a plum appeared in front of me, and it quickly enlarged into a translucent data frame, floating in the field of vision with a faint sense of light, and the data appeared in front of my eyes.
With a click, a display reads: "Priest's Feeling: 2/3"
"Is there only three layers?" As the priest's senses escalated, it immediately fed back the information: "It's Zeus who is watching."
"Damn it, I dare not absorb the soul of such a great god in its eyes." Pei Ziyun looked at the dying bear-man lying on the ground, and instead of killing it, he shouted: "Drag it back."
For the sake of safety, the slaves broke the limbs of the bear man and dragged him out. The bear man was motionless and seemed to be dying. They moved out of the mouth of the mountain gorge. When they reached the dense forest, the bear man raised his head and suddenly sprayed Pei Ziyun not far away.
A gray light erupted from his mouth. No one expected this sudden change. Pei Ziyun flashed and threw the spear in his hand fiercely. The spear cut through the air and penetrated deeply into the bear man's heart. A stream of blood flowed out. shoot.
At this moment, gray light hit him. Although Pei Ziyun tried his best to avoid it, it still touched his body a little. He immediately stiffened and seemed to be paralyzed.
"Master." The slave was frightened and stabbed the bear man with a spear. At this moment, several people jumped out from the bushes, holding spears and stabbed the paralyzed Pei Ziyun.
