Koronai Kingdom·Mountain Forest
It is normal for the forest to have luxuriant plants and rampant wild animals and be deserted all year round.
At this time, a phantom slowly descended and landed on a large branch. Looking carefully, the phantom was wearing a black robe and a veil on her face. She was a mysterious lady who had interacted with Pei Ziyun several times.
At this time, there was a rhinoceros under the big tree, but this rhino was different from ordinary rhinos. It was twice the size of ordinary rhinoceros, and its skin was thick and hard. The most important thing was that it was a rhinoceros that everyone heard about. The monster, whose sight and breath can kill people, lives on a perennial diet of poisonous shrubs.
The mysterious lady stared at it for a long time and murmured to herself: "It's not satisfactory, but in order to avoid being discovered by the vigilant gods, I chose you."
The more powerful the monsters are, the more they are registered with the gods. The strongest among them are the monsters with Titan bloodline-especially the Titan series.
It can be said that in the Greek world, although monsters such as lizards, bullheads, centaurs, hellhounds, griffins, and banshees have their own terrifying qualities, only giants are the real threat, because they are actually degenerated Titans.
The gods of Olympus are actually descendants of Titans.
If Prince Paris or any hero kills those monsters and makes a sacrifice, the gods will accept it gladly and grant grace.
But if the Cyclops is killed, not only will the gods not accept the sacrifice in good faith, they will immediately add the hero to the death list.
Because he could kill giants, he had already crossed the critical point between gods and humans.
After the mysterious lady finished speaking, she took out a drop of blood, swirled it in the air, and pointed at the monster rhinoceros. The spinning drop of blood shot towards the monster rhinoceros and sank into its body.
This drop of blood seemed to have great magic power. It was absorbed into the body of the monster rhinoceros. The rhino's body swelled and its eyes instantly turned blood red.
It let out a huge roar that shook the forest. All the surrounding beasts were trembling in fear and fled in all directions, as if they were extremely afraid of this monster rhinoceros.
The mysterious lady nodded, looking very satisfied, and waved her hand: "Go, go and wreak havoc on the Kingdom of Coronai with the Greeks, kill herders and farmers at will, destroy farmland, and then be killed by the heroic Prince Paris. , become part of the new destiny.”
The monster rhinoceros seemed to understand her words and ran towards the outside of the forest.
The phantom stood on a tall tree and disappeared until the rhinoceros disappeared into the distant forest.
Coronai Kingdom·Port
A Greek fleet was approaching from the sea. A hero looked at the coast and said: "Are there?"
"Yes, venerable Polyphas, we have arrived at the Kingdom of Coronai." A centurion looked at it and said.
"Prepare to land, then occupy the city of Murtola, turn the prince into a slave, turn the queen into our female slave, plunder the gold in the city, and kill the people inside at will."
Hearing this, all the soldiers shouted and cheered.
This fleet was led by the bravest Aetolian Periphas. Since Philoctetes shot Cynos, Agamemnon sent this fleet to the Kingdom of Corona, waiting for an opportunity. Take revenge and plunder food and gold for supplies.
The fleet slowly docked at the port, and groups of Greek soldiers walked down from it. The number was not too large, but they were all elite soldiers of the Greeks.
Chariots were also transported from the ship, pulled by war horses.
The Greeks were not prepared to set up camp. In their view, Cynos was dead, the prince with Poseidon blood was still young, and the Kingdom of Coronai was just a weak lamb. It would be easy to conquer it.
Everyone only brought one day's rations, and all the supplies were left on the ship. This shows how much the Greeks led by Polyphas despised the Kingdom of Coronai.
The teams lined up neatly on the beach, led by the centurion, and headed towards the city of Murtola.
They followed the chariot, and the one at the front was Polyphas. He rode on the chariot and observed what was going on in front of him from time to time.
The city of Mettola has received news of the Greek landing. At this moment, the alarm bells in the city were ringing, and the warriors stood up and closed the city gates urgently.
Groups of Koronai warriors climbed up the city wall with weapons, and the archers stood ready.
"But we lack heroes!"
Queen Coronai and her young prince were praying in the Temple of Poseidon. She knelt down in front of the statue of Poseidon and said: "Great Poseidon, my husband's father, please have mercy." We are mother and son, I just received the bad news that my husband was killed in battle, and then I received the news that monsters attacked the village, and then the Greeks attacked again."
"My husband Cynos took away half of the soldiers in the kingdom. Although the walls of Mettora can still be maintained, how can we resist the Greek attack without heroes?"
The role of heroes in this era cannot be made up by soldiers. During the last battle of Troy, Hercules only brought six ships. According to the maximum capacity at that time, each ship had 120 soldiers, which was only 700 people. , but with the famous Greek heroes Peleus, Telamon and Oleus, Troy can be conquered in one fell swoop.
Therefore, the city of Mettora, which lacked heroes, was in chaos. When the ordinary people heard that the powerful Greeks were attacking, they all expressed panic and anxiety. It seemed that the end was coming. However, because the city was small, it was quickly destroyed by Cologne. Nye's soldiers suppressed it.
"What can I do to resist the invasion of the Greeks?" cried the queen.
Mount Olympus, Poseidon looked on sympathetically, responding to all this with a slight vibration in the temple.
The queen felt the vibrations in the temple and was pleasantly surprised, knowing that the great Poseidon had not abandoned her. In this case, the Kingdom of Coronai still had a chance to face the powerful Greeks.
At this time, the temple priest walked in and said: "Queen, I feel that someone who saves the city is approaching quickly."
The queen knew that the priest was conveying Poseidon's will, and her face showed surprise.
She took the young prince and quickly left the temple of Poseidon and hurried to the city gate. She wanted to tell the soldiers guarding the city this great good news.
Outside the city of Mettora, Greek soldiers led by Polyphas had arrived at the city.
Rows of Greek soldiers lined up neatly, and chariots lined up. Polyphas looked at the walls of the city of Mettora, with firm confidence in his heart, and said: "Greek warriors, what Cycnos has done to us Greeks is If you commit a crime, you will demand it from his kingdom today, so that everyone can see the consequences of violating us."
"Kill." Polyphas pointed his sword forward, and the Greek soldiers slowly approached the city of Mettora with siege equipment.
Facing the mighty Greek soldiers, the hands of the soldiers of the Kingdom of Koronai trembled slightly.
In this era, everyone has heard too much about the power of the Greeks, and it has even reached their hearts. Moreover, the elite soldiers have been taken to Troy by Kynos, and the remaining soldiers are relatively weak.
"Shoot!" The archers on the city of Metola watched nervously as the Greeks approached. A centurion ordered and immediately fired a wave of shots.
"Dang, Dang, Dang." There was a series of collisions of gold and iron, and the arrows were basically blocked by the Greek shields. Occasionally, a few arrows missed, causing casualties.
The siege ladder was quickly brought over. This was not a cloud ladder, but a primitive ladder, but it was completely enough to deal with the walls of the city of Mettola, and the Greeks continued to surge up.
"Hold on, hold on." The centurion shouted, and the collision caused a wave of blood, which was the sparks from the swords and guns of the soldiers from both sides.
Blood splattered, figures kept falling and hitting each other, and the situation was tragic.
"Use a spear!" Although there is a big difference between heroes and ordinary people, the soldiers still fought to the death. The spears were two feet long and they stabbed down hard, stabbing the Greeks into skewers.
Within a moment, the walls of the city were piled with corpses of soldiers from both the enemy and ourselves. At this moment, Periface personally jumped on them and climbed up.
"Die all of them!" Polyface's eyes were red. He first used his shield to resist the cold arrows, and then threw his spear upwards heavily.
"Ah!" The spear penetrated one person's chest, and it still had enough power to penetrate the two people behind him.
Immediately, Greek soldiers presented new spears.
Every time the spear was thrown, a large amount of blood flew out. For just a moment, there was an open space above, and Periface quickly climbed up.
The Greeks were also infected by the heroic spirit of war. Everyone was excited and fought on the front line, unstoppable.
In just a moment, Polyphas climbed onto the wall, shouted loudly, and swept across with his spear. Several of Coronai's soldiers spurted blood and fell down the city.
"Open the city gate." Polyface threw himself at the city gate, his screams echoing loudly.
"Boom." With a loud noise, the gate of Metola City opened. At this time, the fate of the Kingdom of Koronai seemed to be doomed. The queen who was watching the battle turned pale and hugged her young son tightly, while around her, Koronai Kingdom The number of Ronai soldiers has been reduced to less than a hundred, and everyone is scarred.
"Kill them all and seize the queen as a slave girl." Periface shouted.
"Despicable Greek, you are delusional." Suddenly, there was a commotion from behind, and a deep and angry voice sounded from behind. The coldness made the hair on Polyface's hair stand on end. Before he could turn around, he speared backwards. My heart flies straight away.
As soon as Polyphas dodged, the spear fell heavily and was nailed half a foot into the stone. When he turned around, he saw the Trojan soldiers coming. One of them was a young man. When he saw this young man, his face was filled with emotion. A muscle twitched: "Paris!"
Just listen to Prince Paris shouting loudly: "Greeks, tell me your name. As long as I am here, I cannot allow you to sack the city of Mettora and harm the wife and son of my friend Cynos."
Pei Ziyun said this, secretly glad that he came at the right time.
In this era, especially in the Greek world, every city-state was small, and the Kingdom of Corona was the same.
Pei Ziyun arrived at the port after a long journey, and saw thick smoke billowing from the city of Mettola in the distance. Knowing that there could be no delay, he gave up carrying his chariots and baggage, and immediately led his soldiers to the city of Mettola quickly.
The distance from the port to the city of Mettola was not too far. Pei Ziyun led the army to arrive outside the city of Mettola in less than a while. As soon as he arrived, he saw that the Greeks were barely able to break through the city gate.
Pei Ziyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If it had been ten minutes later, it would have been difficult for him to fulfill his promise to protect Kuknos' wife and son.
Periface gritted his teeth. This was Prince Paris who was filled with hatred. He pulled out his spear and said loudly: "I am Periface, the bravest Aetolian. Paris, you are The culprit of the war, I will definitely kill you today to avenge all the Greeks who shed blood."
