"Cough cough cough" Pei Ziyun woke up leisurely, opened his eyes, and found that he was still on the deck of the ship, but there was some pain all over his body.

He endured the pain and climbed up on the deck. He looked around carefully and found that his warship was stranded on a white beach. It looked like it was an island.

Pei Ziyun looked at his warship again and found that the damage was somewhat serious, but it could still be repaired. He took another look and saw the sailors, and couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Get up, get up quickly." We found a dozen sailors in the cabin and woke them up.

"Prince Paris." The sailor called Pei Ziyun. At this moment, they had a pair of blank eyes open, not knowing what happened.

They only knew that the warship they were in was hit by a tornado without any warning, and the warship was swept into the air. They did not remember what happened next.

"What happened just now?" Pei Ziyun thought about it. Not long after setting off, a sudden wind appeared on the ship. This strong wind formed a tornado and blew him to this island

"I was blown away by a tornado because I changed the plot too much and was expelled from the Trojan War?"

"Damn it." Pei Ziyun's face was a little livid. The gods of Olympus directly intervened and expelled him to this deserted island.

There is nothing we can do now, we can only take one step at a time and survive on this deserted island for the time being. Fortunately, there is still a warship, which should be repaired first.

Pei Ziyun looked at the uneasy sailors in front of him and knew that they were afraid of the unknown. Not to mention them, even he was a little confused.

But he couldn't show his cowardice and ordered: "You guys will work in pairs and go hunting on the island with weapons and look for fresh water."

Then he pointed at a few sailors and said: "You guys take your tools and go to the island to cut down trees and repair warships, but you must remember to bring weapons."

Pei Ziyun pointed at the last two sailors: "You two put on your weapons and follow me to the island to see if there is any danger."

Pei Ziyun knew that in the world of Greek mythology, islands were home to many monsters. He had to patrol the islands and try his best to detect dangers so that they could be avoided in advance.

Pei Ziyun hung the bronze sword on his waist, took a spear in his hand, and got off the warship with two fully armed soldiers. As soon as he got off the warship and stepped on the soft beach, he felt something different, too It is quite now.

"Is there really a powerful monster?" Pei Ziyun thought to himself, and after walking for a while, his eyes suddenly opened up, and he saw a lush forest.

Not sensing any danger, Pei Ziyun led two soldiers and walked slowly through the forest.

Suddenly, there was a plume of green smoke floating in front.

"Is there anyone there?" Pei Ziyun felt strange. He followed the green smoke and walked for a distance before faintly seeing a building in front of him.

"Don't get close, take a look first." Pei Ziyun quickly hid with the two soldiers. After waiting for a while, he quietly pushed aside the branches, and a palace appeared in front of him.

The palace is square and square, supported by marble columns. There are huge cornices floating out from the four corners of the palace dome, which looks a bit weird. It is surrounded by a white wall, which surrounds the entire palace inside and isolates it from the outside.

Pei Ziyun looked at the surrounding walls and gorgeous palaces, his face changed slightly, he thought: "Is it the palace of a nymph or a goddess?"

It was easy to judge, generally to maintain a palace, if it were a mortal, it would definitely require many farmers and servants, but he saw no fields or farmhouses around him.

"That's why I think this palace is a palace of nymphs or goddesses, because only gods can keep the palace running without farmers and servants."

Believing in his heart that the palace was the palace of gods, Pei Ziyun hesitated for a moment and then took a closer look.

After taking a few steps closer, I saw the inside through the gap in the wall. I couldn't help but be shocked. The soldier shouted in a low voice: "There are animals inside, including wild boars."

"And wolves and lions."

"Who would keep these in a palace?"

Pei Ziyun didn't speak, which made him immediately understand where this place was: "Is it the island of Aeaea, Circe?"

circular Using drugs to turn enemies or those who oppose her into monsters.

"Retreat, let's retreat quickly." Pei Ziyun loudly ordered the soldiers, and at the same time he ran towards the woods.

I thought this island was an uninhabited island, but I didn't expect it to be an island in Aeaea. The most important thing is that the terrible witch Circe lives there. The wild wolves and lions I saw just now are clearly witches who turned humans into that.

Pei Ziyun retreated to the forest, gradually calmed down, and found that he was also frightened by the evil reputation of the witch. In fact, she may not be as scary as the legend said.

"Odysseus will wind up here many years later, after this plot."

"At that time, Circe turned the sailors into wild beasts, and Hermes pointed to Odysseus, pulled up a black root with white flowers on the ground, and told Odysseus that this grass was a demon. Grass."

"As long as you bring this kind of grass, her witchcraft and potions will not turn people into animals. And it was recorded at that time that when Odysseus ran away with his sword, she would beg for mercy."

"It shows that her power is not strong." Pei Ziyun thought of this, stepped back a certain distance, and looked around carefully. He pulled up a black root grass with hundreds of flowers on the ground.

Pei Ziyun looked at the grass, raised his lips, and smiled.

I came to this island by accident. It can be said that the gods sent me to the island. Since it was arranged in this way, how could I not meet the legendary witch Circe

Just now, I was afraid of falling into Circe's trap, so I quickly retreated. Otherwise, if she accidentally turned into a monster, I might not be able to leave the island for the rest of my life.

"No, it won't last a lifetime. The gods will release themselves when the time is right and then harvest their own lives."

Although I have Plum Blossom's help, I don't want to get into trouble. Now that I'm on guard, I can calmly go see Circe.

Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun stood up and wanted to go in. Then he thought about it and felt that no gods were watching at this time. Pei Ziyun thought: "I have to be more careful. I have enough savings. In the past, gods often paid attention to me." , so there is no upgrade, now, the system is upgraded!”

"boom!"

A plum blossom quickly appeared in front of his eyes, and quickly enlarged, turning into a data frame with a faint sense of light. Then there was a roar, and Pei Ziyun was shocked, his heart beat fiercely, and with a breath, a hint of golden light was faintly added to the blood, showing that The bloodline has undergone a purification and evolution.

I took a look at the system and noticed a change.

"Heroic Bloodline: Level 5 (15.8%)"

"Special Skill: Wind Lightness (80.1%)"

"Special skill: Iron cast copper pot (55.7%)"

"Special Skill: Water Affinity (13.6%)"

"My power has increased again. The lightness of the wind is almost full. I feel like the wind."

"Half of the iron-cast copper pot has been restored, and there is also an extra water affinity. Is this due to my bloodline, coming from Zeus and the River God?"

After upgrading, Pei Ziyun told the two soldiers: "Let's go and meet the owner of this place."

Pei Ziyun led two soldiers and walked towards the main entrance of the palace. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the palace, a girl came out with a group of beautiful fairies.

Pei Ziyun knew that the girl coming out in front of him must be the legendary Circe.

"Ah, distinguished guest, I am very happy that you can come to the island of Aeaea and visit my palace." Circe said enthusiastically.

"Dear Madam, thank you very much for your grand welcome. I came here for the first time and was attracted by this beautiful palace. I hope I won't disturb you."

"How could it happen? Distinguished guest, I have prepared a banquet in the palace. Please come with me."

Pei Ziyun did not expect that Circe would not even ask her name or where she came from, but would invite her to a banquet in her palace as soon as they met.

"That's right, she has a magic potion. As long as I drink a sip of wine or eat a sip of food, I will turn into an animal." Pei Ziyun secretly smiled: "It's just that she is too anxious. Such abnormal courtesy can easily arouse alarm."

As the saying goes, there is no such thing as a good banquet. Fortunately, he was prepared and was not afraid of her. Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun followed Circe into the palace.

Entering the palace, unlike other places where people who transformed from Circe into monsters are raised, there are many flowers planted here, which makes people feel as if they are in a sea of flowers when they first enter. Coupled with the scenery here, it is easy to Let down your guard.

"Brilliant." Pei Ziyun praised secretly.

The reliefs and murals in the palace are full of beautiful scenery and fairies, which make people fall in love with them at first sight.

The banquet seats were covered with gorgeous woolen rugs, and the wine table was filled with delicacies, exquisite wine, and all kinds of fruits.

"Come, distinguished guest, you are welcome to come from afar. Let's drink this cup." After Circe finished speaking, he drank it all in one gulp.

Pei Ziyun smiled, drank the wine in the glass, and said, "Dear Madam, thank you for your warm hospitality."

After saying that, he picked up the barbecue on the table and started eating.

When Circe saw Pei Ziyun, she also drank and ate the meat. She laughed even more happily. She pointed at Pei Ziyun without concealment and said: "Change, change, change!"

But something happened that disappointed her. Pei Ziyun sat there quietly without any reaction.

"What's going on? Who are you? Why did my magic potion fail to work on you?" Only then did she seem to remember asking about Pei Ziyun's identity. She was extremely confident in the potion. She suffered a setback in her life and continued: "No one has ever been able to resist my magic. Are you Odysseus?"

"Many years ago, Hermes came to me and prophesied to me, saying that you would have to pass through this place when returning from Troy. Is the Battle of Troy over now?"

Circe seemed to be so convinced of Hermes' prophecy that even before Pei Ziyun opened his mouth to reveal his identity, she was certain that Pei Ziyun was Odysseus.
