Chapter 624 Dawn
Mount Olympus
The night covers the earth, and the gods on the Holy Mountain of Olympus are still having a feast in the central palace. The gods sit around Zeus, and there is a thick red blood mist in the center. At this moment, the red mist is thicker than some time ago, which means that a large number of people have died in this war.
While the food and wine on the table were consumed by the gods, new food, wine and fresh fruits were constantly transported to the hall through the bronze tripod with a golden wheel made by Hephaestus.
The gods were still talking about the battle situation in Troy. During this period, the battle situation in Troy can be said to be surging. Various key figures appeared and died again. Hector just died some time ago, and now the gods were talking about which key figure will go to the field of Hades in the next step.
The Battle of Troy is about to end, and the gods cannot let it make any unpredictable mistakes.
Zeus actually saw everything, including Paris's preparations, but only a hundred people were careless. Some time ago, the oracle made him feel uncontrollable for the first time.
This feeling is very bad, which makes him much more severe this time than last time. He tries not to let any uncontrollable factors appear.
Zeus glanced at the gods present and said, "Some of your gods here care about the Greeks and some care about the Trojans, which are actually futile. There are countless war horses and soldiers on both sides who will die on the battlefield."
"You are worried about the safety of some people, but don't fantasize about pleading with me for their lives, because fate is as merciless as you."
When the gods heard Zeus's words, they felt a terrified, especially the mortals in this war who were very close to several gods, and they were even more worried.
"The last time the Rainbow Crown incident has not been clarified. This time it was an oracle released again. You should know how harsh fate is to treat me."
"Since fate has treated me so ruthlessly and harshly, it will treat you like this, and you must be clear in your heart."
After Zeus finished speaking, he glanced at the gods around him again, and saw that everyone was silent, so he continued to speak.
"Since Mennon has arrived in Troy, let him extinguish the afterglow of Achilles' fate and end this war as soon as possible."
This war has been fighting for more than six years, and both Gods and people are a little tired. After Achilles's last afterglow of fate is extinguished, kill him and the war can be over.
But after hearing Zeus's words, the face of the goddess Eos was not very good-looking.
Zeus didn't care about the thoughts of the god below. He turned his head and said to Apollo who was silent on the side, "Apollo, are you ready?"
The last time he left Apollo alone was to let Apollo understand his determination to kill Achilles.
Apollo, who was drinking and drinking, heard Zeus's question and knew it was about Achilles and replied: "Be ready. Once the afterglow of his fate is extinguished, I will kill him with Paris's hand."
Hearing Apollo's words, Zeus said, "Achilles is very powerful among mortals. Can you kill him with Paris's hands? If not, then take action yourself."
"Paris himself has an excellent arrow skill. As long as I give him strength, he can kill Achilles." Apollo said.
Zeus nodded, showing his approval of Apollo's words, believing that Achilles has no afterglow of fate, it is not difficult to kill him.
"Everyone, this war has been fought for too long and too many people have died. I know that many of the children of God have died in this war, including my sons, all of them have died."
"But it's all worth it. After this war, we will have a long-term peace."
"Come, let's cheer for the peace that is coming."
After saying that, he picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all, and the gods also drank the wine in the glass one after another.
With Zeus' warning first, the atmosphere of the whole banquet was very dull. The gods were thinking about their own thoughts, drinking wine, eating delicious food, and rarely talking to each other.
After a while, the banquet was over. None of the gods dared to go against Zeus' will and left the banquet hall silently.
Hera heard everything Zeus said and knew what he thought, so she called out to the athena who was about to leave, saying, "You ask Hercules to prepare his divine bow and give Greece a hero, and he will shoot an arrow at Paris at a critical moment according to his fate."
"Without Apollo's hand, it will not affect Achilles?" Athena asked.
"Then it's after Paris killed Achilles, he shot this arrow at him. This is the arrangement of fate and must be shot. I believe that a god will follow his fate."
Athena nodded, agreeing.
Now the Battle of Troy is about to end, and once Achilles dies, Paris has no value for existence. It is natural to kill him, and there is no God who will protect him again.
When Paris gave the golden apple to the god of love Aphrodite, a thorn was planted in the hearts of Hera and Athena. Although they used various means to effectively weaken their resentment, at the critical moment, Hera still did not intend to let Paris go.
The last time Cuknos was hit by Hercules' poisonous arrow, he would have lost his life. If he still used the poisonous arrow to deal with Paris this time, Paris would be dead for a lifetime.
However, his wife Onogne will save him. This is the arrangement of fate. However, whether it can be achieved depends on whether the gods are willing to let him go.
The next morning, Eos, the goddess of dawn, was reluctant to ascend into the sky, because she also heard Zeus's words and knew what fate her beloved son Mennon would suffer.
To extinguish the afterglow of Achilles' fate, I can only fill in Mennon's life, which Goddess of Dawn is extremely reluctant to see.
But after the Trojan War so long, many of the children of the gods died, and even Zeus's son died. There was no reason why her son could not die, and she had no choice but to accept the arrangement.
No matter how reluctant you are, dawn will still rise slowly.
Mennon woke up in the guest room of the Troy Palace, and traveled a long journey. Finally, he slept peacefully today, which satisfied him.
But there was a big battle today, and Mennon still reluctantly got up, put on his armor, tightened the straps on the armor, inserted his sword around his waist, and walked out.
As soon as he went out, he saw Pei Ziyun walking from a distance. Mennon smiled and said, "Dear Prince Paris, it's very honorable that you can come to see me so early."
"King Mennon, I have something important to discuss with you this time, so I come here early and have to go to the battlefield later, I'm afraid there will be no time." Pei Ziyun said with a wry smile.
"Oh? I don't know what's going on." Mennong said with a raised eyebrows.
"That's right, you know Achilles is very powerful. Although many people are not his opponents, we will fight him to the death."
"That's right." Mennon nodded and said.
"But I don't think we should fight him from the beginning, but try to kill other heroes and finally fight him to the final battle. What do you think?" Pei Ziyun said.
He knew that before Achilles died, he could obtain special protection.
When he encounters danger, Apollo will help him, and the gods will not allow him to die.
Once Achilles dies, he will lose all his value. Why not take this opportunity to kill him?
First cut off the Greek hero, which can increase your strength, and try to delay the death of Achilles and make yourself more prepared.
As for the feelings of the gods, I have to see them anyway, so I don’t care about killing more.
In the past, I was reluctant to kill people, but now I don’t have to worry about this anymore. Just let go of my hands and feet and fight as long as Achilles is still alive.
"Paris, I'll adopt the suggestion you said." Mennon was a steady king. He immediately agreed to Pei Ziyun's suggestion. This is how the art of war was.
First remove the weak, and finally concentrate your efforts against the powerful.
And the biggest advantage of doing it according to Pei Ziyun is to reduce the risk. After all, it is well known that Achilles is very powerful, and fighting with him is naturally very risky.
Although Achilles was powerful, Mennon thought he was not weak either, but he first cut off some Greek heroes and everyone gathered together to deal with Achilles. Achilles was not an opponent.
The strong will slash at the weaker ones when they swing their swords, and the weak will challenge the stronger ones. Even if they have to fight against the strong ones strategically, they must create local advantages in tactics.
"Then we will go to the battlefield together today and fight side by side?" Mennon asked. The prince in front of him had a good plan and didn't know how brave he was.
"I'm here today. In addition to giving you this advice, I want to fight side by side with you." Pei Ziyun said immediately.
"Haha, okay, today we will kill the enemy side by side. Let's go outside the palace to gather the team." Mennon said happily.
The main reason why Pei Ziyun came to Mennong to fight side by side was that there was a powerful hero for his cover. He could shoot these heroes with his bow and arrow to the fullest, and the harvest was undoubtedly the fastest.
Soon, Mennon gathered the team he brought, and Troy's soldiers and heroes also gathered in the military camp.
Tanks were driving in front, and rows of soldiers followed the tanks all the way to the outside of the city.
At this time, the city gate opened, and the chariots and soldiers left the city gate. The chariots were lined up in rows, and the soldiers held spears and walked towards the Greek camp with firm steps.
On the other hand, the Greeks also knew that today's war was of different significance, and that the two sides would decide the outcome.
The warriors, led by Achilles and numerous other Greek heroes, also rushed towards the direction of Troy with firm steps.
