But a line of black smoke fell with a red light, and all the soldiers stood blankly, as if they had fallen asleep standing up, their chests rising and falling slightly, and the entire fleet was silent.
Hercules took a look, found the main ship, dropped the windbag in the corner, and shrouded it with black mist. After finishing all this, he looked around again, and the figure of Hercules who was finished slowly faded away. , disappeared into this port.
It was only Hercules who left, and a little moonlight seemed to condense on the deck as a phantom. This was the mysterious lady. She looked at the place where Hercules placed the wind bag and the direction in which the mouth of the wind bag was pointed. Sighed.
"The fate is really wonderful. Where does it blow to? I originally wanted to adjust the direction of the wind bag, but I didn't expect that the position where Heracles placed it was exactly opposite. I didn't need to adjust it."
"It blew far away. It seems that the gods still have some good intentions." If it is too close, it will not be able to expel Paris. If Paris rushes back quickly, there may be impatient gods who will directly blow it. Get rid of this trouble.
The mysterious lady understood this and murmured to herself. After speaking, her figure gradually disappeared.
The next moment, as if the door was opened, the neighing of cattle and sheep, the footsteps of patrolling soldiers, and the snoring of slaves deep in the cabin all immediately returned to their original state. The night at the port was deep and quiet, with only the sounds of the tide and sea breeze coming from time to time. .
early morning
Pei Ziyun got up early.
She drank too much last night. The queen wanted to arrange a rest in the palace, but she insisted on coming back, so she sent a car to take her back to the ship to rest.
Pei Ziyun moved around on the port and breathed in the fresh air of the early morning port. He felt particularly comfortable. He pulled a soldier over and said, "Go to Metola City and tell the queen that we are leaving."
"Yes, Prince Paris." The soldiers hurried over, but Pei Ziyun turned around and ordered everyone to pack up and prepare to set sail.
After a while, the queen and prince led a group of people to the port. She looked at Pei Ziyun and said, "Prince Paris, why don't you stay in the Kingdom of Coronai for a while?"
Pei Ziyun shook his head and smiled: "Honorable Queen, other city-states want me to rush to rescue them, otherwise they will be attacked by the Greeks just like yesterday."
Although it is said that if you want to incriminate someone, there is no reason to say anything, but there is still a big difference between having excuses and not.
Among other things, Pei Ziyun showed respect to all the gods wherever he went, even the hostile gods, and buried his enemies according to etiquette.
Does this have any effect? In fact, it has a great effect. Except for Hera, no god would definitely put Paris to death.
"Of course, my strength has become stronger, and I have reached the line where I am bound to be harvested. I will definitely die. No amount of good intentions can save myself."
"But this will ensure that I can still survive until I reach the critical point."
"Of course I can't have any trouble with the queen of Coronai. Otherwise, some god can just use this as a reason to kill me."
Naturally, the Queen didn't know what Prince Paris was thinking, but she saw that he was determined to leave, and her attempt to stay was just polite, so she added: "Prince Paris, I have brought you a gift, please accept it."
After saying that, several servants holding precious gifts came out of the team.
Pei Ziyun took a closer look and found that these gifts included ivory, gold, spices, and some precious specialties. He did not refuse and said, "Queen, thank you very much for your gift."
"Prince Paris, your kindness to our Kingdom of Coronai is so great. These gifts from me are nothing at all."
The young prince asked: "Prince Paris, will you come back to see us?"
Pei Ziyun smiled softly and said, "I will come back to see you when the war is over."
After saying that, Pei Ziyun waved goodbye to the queen and prince and returned to the battleship. Every time he saw the young prince, he would think of Cynos and the man's bravery on the battlefield. Unfortunately, he could not resist fate. cruel.
"Set sail." Pei Ziyun gave the order, and the fleet slowly left the port and set off into the distance.
The queen watched Pei Ziyun's fleet leave, her expression gradually became cold, and she ordered: "Capture all the Greek prisoners in the dungeon, send them to the Temple of Poseidon, and sacrifice them to the great Poseidon."
A part of the team rushed to the dungeon, tied up the Greek prisoners, and sent them to the temple of Poseidon. When they arrived at the temple, the Greek prisoners instantly understood their fate and screamed and roared.
"Why, Prince Paris promised us that he would not kill us as long as we surrender, why would he go back on his word?"
The Greek prisoners questioned, but no one answered their questions. Their hands and feet were bound and they were sent to the altar of the Temple of Poseidon.
"That is Prince Paris who promised you, but everyone in our Kingdom of Coronai did not agree." A centurion sneered and waved his hand: "Kill him quickly."
After a while, the altar of the Temple of Poseidon was stained red with the blood of the captives.
"You will be punished."
"The Greeks will never let you go."
"God will never forgive you."
Facing death, these prisoners uttered their final curses, but none of these could change their fate. The butcher knife of death had fallen and the sound stopped abruptly.
"Mother, why are you doing this?" The young prince asked, apparently not understanding that his mother wanted to kill them.
"We killed them not only because of our hatred against the Greeks, but also because we did not have the strength to guard these captives," the queen said.
"The Greek fleet may come again at any time. Once the fleet comes, these seemingly docile Greek prisoners will immediately riot and respond. This will be a disaster for our Kingdom of Coronai, so we have to kill them."
The young prince nodded in understanding, and the queen ordered: "Send the Greek ships to a secret outlet and keep them well. If there is an emergency, we will go to sea to escape."
The elders of the Kingdom of Koronai nodded in agreement. This is the mature and prudent approach. The city-state of Koronai was established only a short time ago - King Cynos was the son of the sea god Poseidon and a fairy, so it means that he is the founder of the first generation.
The entire city-state, which actually only had a thousand citizens, was unable to guard so many Greek captives.
And without Cyconos, the prince is still young and is in danger of overturning at any time. The queen's decision may not be an option for her.
On the ship in the distance, Pei Ziyun stood on the deck, seeming to realize something. He smiled slightly, looked at the port, and then looked into the distance.
Seabirds are flying freely in the sky, making bursts of bird calls from time to time.
The blue sky overlaps with the blue water on the distant horizon, which seems to be the end of the sky.
The wind and waves on the sea were very small, and it was difficult to see huge waves rolling up. The small waves gently slapped the bottom of the ship, making a "swishing" sound.
Pei Ziyun felt that he had gained a lot from this trip to the Kingdom of Korona.
Not only did he save his ally, the Kingdom of Koronai, and fulfill his promise to protect Cynos' son and wife, but he also killed the powerful hero Perifas and the rhinoceros monster.
The power of these two alone should be enough for him to level up, not to mention the undigested power of the heroes he killed before.
For Paris, he has changed too much.
According to the script, Paris was originally going to take Helen to find an island away from Troy, but now he went back directly, which promoted the war a few years earlier, which directly caused Achilles to be unable to participate in the war. Secondly, historically, it could have been peaceful. Philoctetes returned home and was shot dead by himself.
And because of him, Palamedes ended his life early, and killed many soldiers and heroes on the battlefield. These were all changes.
Now it has also changed the fate of the Kingdom of Koronai.
Whether it is a blessing or a curse, we can only wait and see, everything that needs to be done has been done.
Pei Ziyun's reverie did not delay the busy work on the ship. At this moment, the sailors were correcting the sails and taking advantage of the sea breeze, they headed towards Troy as quickly as possible.
At this moment, the black fog dissipated, and a sailor suddenly saw a bag appearing in the corner of the deck.
This bag is made of fine cloth. The mouth of the bag is tied with a string and has patterns around it. It is shaped like a prince's wallet.
The sailor looked around and realized that no one was paying attention, so he secretly picked up the "purse". He was overjoyed and felt that he was lucky this time. The contents of this kind of prince's "purse" would definitely not be too big. Young Master, when no one was paying attention, the sailor pulled the string on the "purse", and the opening of the "purse" opened.
"boom."
A gust of wind instantly blew out of the wind bag, and the unlucky sailor was immediately blown off the deck by the gust of wind and flew into the sky, screaming.
"What's going on?" Pei Ziyun woke up from deep thought and was almost blown out. He grabbed the mast with one hand and shouted loudly.
But no one could respond to the order. The strong wind continued to be released from the wind bag, and a giant tornado appeared in the sky, and it was getting bigger and bigger.
The tornado connected to the sky above and to the sea below. The entire ship was wrapped in the tornado, spinning rapidly and making a rumbling sound. The slightest amount of strong wind blew off some masts on the ship.
But the tornado didn't seem to have accumulated enough energy. It kept spinning in place and didn't move even half a minute.
A huge amount of seawater was swept into the air by the tornado, forming a water curtain. The ship Pei Ziyun was on could not resist such a strong suction, and was swept into the air, spinning rapidly with the tornado.
Many sailors on the deck of the ship had already been thrown into the sea when the tornado formed. At this time, they were rolled into the air, and the entire ship made a rattling sound as it was torn apart by huge energy.
Some of the sailors in the cabin were thrown out, screaming and rolled into the sky, into the sea, and some were thrown out directly.
Pei Ziyun clung to the largest mast on the ship and gritted his teeth to persist, but the tornado covered the sky and the sun, and the clouds in the sky were distributed in a funnel shape.
At this time, the tornado that had been lingering in place seemed to have accumulated enough energy and was slowly moving rapidly into the distance.
Pei Ziyun, who clung to the mast and persisted without saying a word, desperately tied himself to the mast with a rope. After tying him up, a wooden barrel flew up and hit him hard on the head.
Before "Boom" fainted, Pei Ziyun had only one thought in his mind: I was plotted by the gods.
