Hector's attack on the Greek camp began and he has been fighting until now. It has been a very long time, and he was fighting with powerful heroes such as Ajax and Patroclus. He was really exhausted at this time.
Hector also knew that the Greeks were as strong as the clouds. If they continued to fight, Ajax and Diomedes were strong enemies, and he might not be able to hold on. A truce at this time would also be a kind of threat to him. Very good idea.
But Hector was a little hesitant.
"Brother, don't worry, there will be no problem with my rear." Pei Ziyun continued: "If I really encounter a strong enemy, I will retreat immediately."
Pei Ziyun was holding the spear, exuding confidence, and his confident look also infected Hector. Paris has always performed well and can make people have confidence in him.
Hector nodded. Patroclus had been killed by him. No one on the battlefield could threaten his younger brother Paris for the time being. He could relax and go back to the city of Troy to rest.
He stepped forward and put the body of Patroclus on the ground on the chariot. He also wanted to lend Achilles to Patroclus's divine horses, but they were all immortal and divine and could speak. The horse, seeing Patroclus dead, began to weep, and great tears fell from its eyes.
Zeus was very sympathetic when he saw this scene: "Poor horses, why do we give you, the immortal and divine, to the mortal Peleus? Is it to let you endure the same sorrow as the unfortunate humans?" There is perhaps no creature in the world who is more distressed than man. As for Hector, he will never tame you or drive you before his chariots, and I will never allow that.”
So Zeus gave the horses courage and strength, and the two horses immediately shook off the dust from their manes and galloped away, dragging the chariot.
Hector still wanted to chase after him, but Pei Ziyun stopped him and said, "Brother, these divine horses cannot be captured by mortals. Don't chase after them. Ajax and Diomedes are waiting for you there."
"You have won the victory now and should have a good rest." Hector was still a little hesitant after hearing this, but Apollo made him agree, jumped into the chariot, and headed towards the city of Troy.
Before leaving, Hector turned to Pei Ziyun and told him, "Paris, be careful."
Pei Ziyun nodded, smiled at Hector, and watched Hector go away. =
As soon as Hector left, King Menelaus of Sparta rushed over not far away, very fast, and before he got close, he threw his spear at Pei Ziyun.
"Dang." Although Pei Ziyun has been looking at Hector, Menelaus wanted to sneak attack, but it was impossible, so he just raised his shield to block it.
The tip of the spear hit Pei Ziyun's raised shield, making a crashing sound, and the entire tip of the spear became slightly bent due to the strong force.
Menelaus's strength was ultimately limited and he could not pierce the shield. The spear fell to the ground after hitting the shield, and did not achieve any merit.
Pei Ziyun was not ready to kill any more heroes. He was a bit conspicuous, so he picked up a stone on the ground, aimed at Menelaus in the distance and threw it.
"Whoosh." The stone hit the opponent like a meteor. Menelaus was caught off guard and fell directly to the ground.
If Pei Ziyun adds a spear at this time, Menelaus will not be spared, and the grudge between Pei Ziyun and Menelaus will be settled.
Pei Ziyun did not take the opportunity to step forward, but just said: "King of Sparta, we have a deep hatred, but let's stop fighting now. Too many heroes and citizens have died. The two sides should have a truce time so that we can Gathering the bodies, giving burial to the dead, and offering sacrifices to the gods.”
Pei Ziyun's words were reasonable and reasonable. Even the gods of Mount Olympus couldn't help but nodded after seeing it, thinking that Paris's approach was correct.
Pei Ziyun paused and said to Menelaus who fell to the ground: "As for our grudges, we will settle them next time."
Menelaus looked at the corpses on the ground and got up. He was not grateful for Pei Ziyun's forgiveness. He immediately wanted to call more Greeks to see if the Greek heroes could hear the shouts and gather around him. Kill Paris.
It was only the dignity of the king, especially the fact that many Greek heroes were injured, that made him swallow the words back: "I agree, a temporary truce."
"truce."
"truce."
The voices of the king and prince soon spread throughout the battlefield. Both of them held important positions in their own camps. The fierce battle lasted almost a whole day. Both sides were exhausted. After hearing these words, they responded one after another.
The warring parties stopped and retreated slowly. All the Greeks and Trojans stopped, and the battlefield calmed down.
Following the orders of Pei Ziyun and Menelaus, everyone checked each other's corpses on the battlefield and moved their own corpses back one by one.
Everyone was silent during this process, and they didn't say anything when they encountered enemies. Many people watched their former companions turn into cold corpses. They didn't feel much during the battle. At this time, they stopped fighting and fell into In deep sadness.
One by one, the corpses were carried onto the chariot, and the pieces of armor and weapons were also collected by the soldiers.
Some of these weapons and armors are intact and can continue to be used, while some are damaged and must be recast to reflect their value.
Cleaning the battlefield was boring, and Pei Ziyun felt the eyes of the gods gradually withdrawing. After all, there was nothing interesting about cleaning up the battlefield.
All the gods like to pay attention to some important things or scenes of fighting and killing. All the gods have lost their patience and no longer pay attention to cleaning up the battlefield.
The distance of the gods' gazes undoubtedly gave Pei Ziyun a chance.
The priest had long felt the tears of Zeus, but the gods had been staring at the battlefield and were not very good at taking action - if the gods knew about it, he would be in huge trouble, so he suppressed his mood.
At this time, while cleaning the battlefield, they passed a place, which was the place where Sarpedon died. A drop of Zeus' tears was slowly dissipating.
If nothing else, if no one collects it, this tear will soon disappear into heaven and earth.
"System, collect."
Just shouting, the tears disappeared out of thin air, and then there was a slight shock in the system. Pei Ziyun did not stop at any time, but continued to patrol. During this period, he did not attract anyone's attention, but there was a prompt from the system.
A plum appeared quickly in front of me, and it quickly enlarged into a transparent information box with a faint light, with text displayed on it.
"Mission: Respond to the call of the phantom lady, obtain three drops of divine blood, and embark on the next journey of destiny (1/3)"
"So tears can be considered the blood of gods." Pei Ziyun thought to himself.
He had always thought that the gods had to be injured on the battlefield in order to collect the blood of gods, but only then did he realize that this was misleading.
This drop of tear also has the effect of God's blood. One drop was collected, two drops short of collecting three drops.
After he collected these tears, he did not stay too long on the battlefield, so as not to arouse unnecessary suspicion among the gods.
After carefully observing the battlefield and seeing everyone carrying corpses, weapons, and armor in an orderly manner, Pei Ziyun felt relieved and quickly got on the chariot, which headed towards the city.
The chariot drove the chariot all the way, leaving the battlefield, and quickly arrived at the city gate. At this time, the city gate was wide open, and many soldiers were strictly guarding it, carefully checking people who wanted to enter the city.
Pei Ziyun's chariot rushed through the city gate and arrived inside the city without stopping at all.
There was another scene in the city. Some people were happy because their family members had made military exploits and the Greeks were about to lose. Everyone saw the hope of victory.
Some people were sad and sad. Although they wanted to defeat the Greeks, many people also died, including heroes and princes, and many ordinary soldiers. These people were the families of the fallen.
Of course, the Greeks lost more heroes and princes, and the people lined the streets to welcome these returning heroes and soldiers.
The people shouted, cheered, and jumped for joy.
The Greeks had besieged the city for so long, and the common people were very frightened. Now that the Greeks were finally defeated, everyone had reason to cheer and celebrate the victory of the Trojans.
Pei Ziyun's chariot slowly headed towards the palace, and people on the road called out names.
"Prince Paris."
"Prince Paris."
Huge cheers came from the crowd, and they called Prince Paris's name. Paris's bravery was not only spread among heroes and princes, but even ordinary people knew about his deeds.
"Poor Trojans, we have just reached the peak of the battle and are far away from victory." Pei Ziyun waved his hand to the people. The chariot quickly arrived at the entrance of the palace. Pei Ziyun got out of the car and headed towards the palace.
In the palace, Hector, who returned in triumph, brought back the body of Patroclus. At this time, he had stripped off Patroclus' armor that originally belonged to Achilles.
This armor was originally a wedding gift from the gods to Peleus and the sea goddess Thetis when they got married. Later, Peleus passed this armor to his son Achilles.
Hector was so proud that he couldn't wait to put the stripped armor on himself.
Zeus saw Hector wearing Achilles' armor, his face darkened, he shook his head seriously, and said in his heart: "Hector, you don't know yet, the god of death is already standing beside you. Next. You killed Achilles’ close comrade, stripped off his armor, and now you are wearing the divine armor of the Son of the Goddess. You will never be able to return to the city again."
Zeus directly sentenced Hector to death, which shocked Pei Ziyun, who had just entered.
For a moment, the priest's feeling made him see a scene - the sun in the sky extinguished its light, causing the surroundings to fall into darkness. Hector's eyes were filled with tears, his body was covered with blood, and all around him, there were ghosts from the underworld. Floating.
Pei Ziyun's hair stood on end. He looked again and saw that everything was back to normal. The setting sun was shining on the cheerful Hector, but he knew that this was not an illusion.
"Hector is dead this time. Zeus is so ruthless. This is how he avenged his murder."
