Aeaea Island·Natural Harbor
Pei Ziyun enjoyed a sumptuous banquet in Circe's palace and bid farewell to Circe.
"Dear Madam, thank you for your warm hospitality. I still need to get food and water from you. By the way, I will send you the gold and bronze on the ship."
When Circe heard about gold and bronze, her eyes lit up and she said with a smile: "Your request is very simple. I will arrange for my maids to take my pets to deliver these things to you now."
"Oh, beautiful lady, you are so generous. I will definitely get rid of the sea monster as soon as possible." After saying that, Pei Ziyun turned around and followed the maid out.
"They are all beautiful girls, but they feel more fragile." There were four maids in total. They all looked like beautiful and elegant fairies. They opened the door and called out. Wild wolves and lions ran out of the palace courtyard. The wild wolves Baring its pointed teeth, the lion shook its shaggy mane.
The two soldiers were so scared that they were about to run away, but Pei Ziyun remained unmoved. On the one hand, he knew that these beasts were transformed by humans, and on the other hand, he was not afraid at all.
"It's nothing more than wild wolves and lions. If they really attack, just kill them."
After a moment's hesitation, the beasts were already surrounding him. The strange thing is that the beasts are very gentle, so the fairy directs them to carry heavy loads of food and drinking water on their backs, and the drinking water is all in jars.
They stand in a row, waiting for their master to give orders.
Pei Ziyun looked at the beasts in front of him and was helpless about their plight.
"Go!" The fairy gave the order to go, and the lions and wolves lined up in a long queue, dragging food and drinking water, and headed up the beach.
After a while, Pei Ziyun led them to the beach where the ship docked. He ordered people to carry the food and drinking water onto the ship, move the gold and bronze down, and put them on the backs of the beasts for them to carry again. go back.
In this way, Pei Ziyun completed his first transaction with Circe, and the process went smoothly.
"Gold and bronze don't mean much to me." In fact, Pei Ziyun may not be much richer than the king and prince, but the king and prince saved a lot for their future life, but Pei Ziyun had no such idea. He used gold and bronze generously. It is a very pleasing thing to man (God).
Circe obviously did the same, and even sent someone to send some ship repair tools.
Soon after, the soldiers who cut down the trees also came back. When they knew that the prince and the fairy who lived on the island had reached an agreement, they couldn't help but cheer.
They used food and the donated tools to process the trees into various parts for the ship, and then repaired the ship.
The entire ship repair work took about a week. Although it took a long time, it fully ensured the safety of the ship at sea.
The repair of the ship was completed and it was already evening. Pei Ziyun took advantage of the high tide at night to sail the repaired ship to the sea.
After driving around the island, they found a natural sheltered bay, a cliff leeward from the wind. Pei Ziyun ordered the ship to move in.
Pei Ziyun spent the night peacefully on the cliff. In the early morning of the next day, the ship set sail, preparing to go to sea to find sea monsters.
"Prince Paris, we found traces of the sea monster." It seemed that the sea monster was wandering near the island of Aeaea, and soon a sailor hurried over to report the situation ahead.
Pei Ziyun looked around and saw a plesiosaur water monster with a horn on its forehead on the sea in the distance, wreaking havoc on the shore.
The sea monster has a huge body, more than 20 meters long and ten meters high. Its blood-red eyes seem to have magical powers and are breathtaking.
The appearance of the sea monster was really a coincidence. Just when Pei Ziyun was looking for it, it came to his door.
Pei Ziyun looked at the sea monster carefully and saw that it was similar to the one described by Circe. He knew that this was the sea monster that Circe said had attacked many ships.
At this time, he saw the sea monster heading to the shore, and a flash of surprise flashed in his heart. He didn't know what was attracting it on the shore.
Without thinking much, Pei Ziyun immediately ordered the sailors to turn the ship around and head towards the sea monster. He wanted to kill the sea monster, complete Circe's mission as soon as possible, and return to Troy as soon as possible.
I don’t want to be like Odysseus and wander the sea for ten years.
Pei Ziyun's ship quickly approached the sea monster and successfully intercepted it before it came ashore. The sea monster was fierce and looked at a ship heading towards it, so it changed direction and rammed towards the ship.
Pei Ziyun's eyes turned cold and he saw that there were scales on the back of the sea monster, but there seemed to be no scales on the sides. He took aim with his spear and threw it out fiercely. The spear hit the side of the sea monster.
"Pfft." The defense on the back of the sea monster was not strong. Most of the bronze spear was submerged, and blood instantly flowed out from the wound caused by the spear.
"Ouch."
The plesiosaur water monster took the pain and let out a thunderous roar. It accelerated and crashed into Pei Ziyun's ship with a more ferocious attitude.
"Avoid." The ship turned sharply and narrowly avoided the sea monster's impact, but Pei Ziyun knew that he had hit it with his spear this time, and it would be difficult to avoid the next sea monster impact.
He looked around, picked up the bronze anchor on the ship, tested the weight, and nodded with satisfaction.
I still remember that he also used a bronze anchor when he killed the sea monster for the first time. It can be seen that this kind of bronze anchor is still very powerful if used properly.
"Go, my anchor!" When the sea monster attacked again, Pei Ziyun aimed at its bleeding wound and threw it hard.
"Phew." The bronze anchor hit the sea monster's wound very quickly, penetrating deeply into the body of the plesiosaur water monster, and even squeezed out the bronze spear inserted inside. It looked up to the sky and let out a huge roar, showing that The pain suffered this time was far greater than the spear being driven in just now.
The plesiosaur water monster struggled hard, but it couldn't get rid of the bronze anchor nailed into its body. The bronze anchor was nailed into the sea monster's body as firmly as nails.
It also seemed to know that struggling on the spot was useless, so it changed its strategy and ran away towards the distant sea. The ship, pulled by the sea monster, also followed quickly.
"Prince, it is dragging us away, cut the rope quickly." The sailor wailed in horror, but Pei Ziyun took one look and refused; "No, I must kill it, otherwise how can we go back?"
"Do you know this sea route and can you return to Troy?"
"No, we must kill this sea monster and exchange the sea map with Circe." As he said this, Pei Ziyun watched the sea monster dragging the ship away, and he actually thought of the story of the old man and the sea. Maybe the old man had Did he encounter a similar situation
Should he return empty-handed, or should he risk his life and fight the sea monster to see who gives up in the end
Moreover, Pei Ziyun also wants to kill the sea monster to upgrade, so he must kill the monster. This monster is huge and it will definitely increase his power.
The plesiosaur water monster dived into the sea for a while, and then surfaced again, but its speed continued unabated.
The ship was rapidly breaking through the wind and waves, moving forward at high speed, with the sea monster pulling it in front. This scene looked a bit strange, as if the sea monster was a free coolie.
The sailors can only resign themselves to their fate at this time, because the sea monster is dragging their ship towards the deep sea, and they don't know where it will drag them.
At this time, the sea was vast and there was no land around. The color of the water was getting darker and darker, and some large sea fish appeared from time to time.
After a while, the speed of the ship gradually slowed down. Pei Ziyun thought that the sea monster was getting tired. After a while, the ship stopped and only moved with the waves.
"Prince, the sea monster seems to be dead." A sailor reported. Pei Ziyun looked up and saw the sea monster floating motionless on the sea.
"It's dead." No other evidence was needed. Just because there was another plesiosaur statue in the space, Pei Ziyun knew that the sea monster was completely dead.
But at this time, the ship was in the depths of the vast sea. I didn’t know where it was. There was sea everywhere and no islands could be seen.
An experienced sailor made the ship move along the ocean current. After a long time, a man suddenly said with surprise: "Prince, look, it's land."
Pei Ziyun, who was closing his eyes to rest, stood up and looked into the distance. Land appeared in the distance, and he immediately ordered: "Open the sails and move forward at full speed."
The sails of the ship were spread out, and the ship caught the sea breeze and soon approached the land. From a distance, it seemed that this was an island with lush vegetation and only a mist surrounding it.
"Pick up weapons and be on guard." Pei Ziyun ordered. The sailor picked up his spear and cautiously docked the ship on a beach.
The beach is shrouded in gray fog, making it difficult for sunlight to penetrate.
Pei Ziyun took a few sailors off the ship and stepped on the white beach. He felt a little uneasy because the surroundings were so quiet.
In addition, there is little sunshine near the beach and the view is not good.
Two groups of sailors went ashore to investigate. Gradually, a few of them walked further away. Just when Pei Ziyun wanted to warn them, suddenly, a tragic sound came: "Ah, there is a monster."
Then there were screams again and again. Pei Ziyun looked around at the sound and saw several monsters faintly appearing at the edge of the beach.
The monster disappeared and appeared, unable to be seen clearly, and the sailor's screams could be heard.
Pei Ziyun could not allow the monster to act arrogantly. He ordered the sailors left on board the ship: "You anchor on the rocks and don't come down. I'll go over and take a look."
The sailors on the ship nodded. They had full trust in Prince Paris, who had killed many monsters.
Pei Ziyun held a spear and rushed towards the direction of the sound.
As soon as they emerged from the thick fog, they saw a monster biting the sailor in the distance, dripping with blood and dragging it inside, about to go deep into the jungle.
"Go to hell!" Pei Ziyun roared angrily and threw the spear in his hand at the monster.
"Whoops." The spear pierced the sky, and with a "pop" sound, the monster was pinned to the ground. Blood spattered, and the monster immediately screamed and threw away the sailor in its mouth.
But although the sailor was thrown away, he remained motionless, apparently dead.
"Damn it!" There were already few sailors, and two more sailors were lost. This really made matters worse. Pei Ziyun was furious, threw himself in front of the monster, held up the spear, and stabbed it downwards.
