As the first trouble he faced when he ascended to the throne of God King, William didn't pay much attention to it, but Arthenis and Athena were always paying attention to the Cretan barbarian army as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
However, William also understood his two newlywed wives.
If many city-states in Greece were captured by barbarians, it would mean that the power of faith has greatly increased in the past few months, and the two goddesses who have become stronger will not only face the dilemma of declining in divine power, but may even be counterattacked by the curse of their believers.
.
What's more, during the march, the Cretan barbarians killed everyone who resisted, demoted anyone they caught as slaves, and destroyed any temples.
It makes people feel that they are not just conquering land, but more like they are here to destroy the foundation of faith.
In particular, after thousands of border garrison troops fought with the barbarians, more than 140 Greek warriors were captured. The king of the barbarians actually ordered them to beat their little brothers with wooden hammers, artificially destroying these people's ability to continue their family lineage.
Athena suddenly looked angrily at William, who was holding a wine glass and standing on the viewing platform in heaven specially used to observe the human world, watching this scene.
"This is no longer a simple war, but is destroying the foundation of the rule of Olympus. Please allow me to send down an oracle and let the entire Greek city-state mobilize to destroy this group of barbarians."
William shook his head. It was good that he didn't need faith. He didn't care at all about the war in the lower world and how many people would die.
However, the Cretan barbarians wanted to destroy all the city-states in Greece with an army of 50,000, which was a bit wishful thinking.
Instead, he was concerned that since the barbarians could form an army of 50,000, that meant that the total number of their tribe was at least 200,000, and this was the result of the plague that had hit the entire tribe.
With such a large population base, why did Zeus let it go?
Hearing William's question, Athena and Arthenis hesitated for a few times before explaining, "The barbarian tribes around the Greek city-states are all tribes that were defeated and took refuge in history.
Without enough profits, Zeus and we, even the gods, cannot control it. The Greeks, who occupy the richest land, use their whole country to occupy the barbaric land."
hey-hey.
After saying this, William still doesn't understand that the Greeks have the same idea as the ancient Chinese dynasty, thinking that their own country is the center of the world, and there is no need to pay attention to other places.
In addition, Greek city-states often attacked each other, slavery was prevalent, and it was difficult for the population to reach saturation.
Not to mention, no king of a city-state would risk breaking his muscles or even being destroyed if he loses, to attack a barbaric land where the barbarians live.
The last and most difficult thing to deal with is the slave society, with extremely low productivity and poor transportation capabilities. To transport a ton of grain to the front line, you have to face the dilemma of having half of the grain consumed by the transportation team and livestock along the way.
When the barbarians invaded the Greek city-states and there was not enough food, they killed and looted along the way.
"Do you know where the Bow of Epirus is?"
"this,,".
When Athena hesitated, Artenis winked at her quickly, and Athena secretly cursed herself. It had been several months, but she still hadn't really entered the role of a wife and said,
"In a Saberine temple in Corboth Bay".
"Cyberline?" William asked unexpectedly, "Who is Cybring, and since the Bow of Epirus is an artifact, why doesn't Zeus take it back?"
Arthenis walked up to William, held his arms with both hands and explained, "Sybelin is the residence of the Titan gods of the previous generation. In order not to irritate the Titan gods who are close to us, Father God gave the borders and many wastelands to
They manage it”.
William understood as soon as he heard it. Zeus himself was actually a Titan, and even his seven wives were also Titans. The title of gods was given to him by Zeus after he overthrew his father.
Moreover, in the Battle of Titans, that is, the Battle of the Titans, Zeus won the battle by winning over most of the Titan gods among the twelve main gods of the previous generation, that is, Zeus's uncles, aunts, and his own cousins.
war with his father Cronus.
Therefore, after the war, when the fruits were divided, there were too many new gods that needed to be entrusted. Those who were close to each other by blood would either become Zeus's wife or be assigned important priesthoods.
As for those gods who are more distant in blood and less important, they can only go to the wilderness, borders and other places to make a living.
However, this also made William suspect that the Bow of Epirus, which was lost to the world during the Titan War, was not of high importance. Otherwise, Zeus would have snatched it back early based on his character.
In this case, let the Cretan barbarians find the divine bow and release the Titans who were imprisoned for opposing Zeus. William just happened to kill them all in one fell swoop.
After thinking about it for a few seconds, he turned to Athena and asked, "What is the strength of the imprisoned Titan?"
Athena was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "I should be able to easily kill the four Titans besieging me. If the number reaches ten, it will be very troublesome."
Just troublesome?
Then he thought that the warriors of the Olympus God Realm should be about the same strength as the Asgard warriors.
By comparing the strength of Asgard, we can get the general situation of Olympus.
He estimated Athena's strength in his mind, and compared it with his understanding of Ares, the God of War, and quickly concluded that if the number of Titans reached a hundred,
If Zeus and the other eleven gods wanted to kill them, several gods would definitely be sacrificed.
Fortunately, war is not just a competition between generals. The comparison between subordinates often accounts for more than 70% of the strength, and William is the kind of boss who is not afraid of exhaustion at all.
After thinking for a while, he waved his hand and released ten combat robots, then threw out a nano-vibranium storage box. With a thought, he turned into a Mark 50 armor.
He smiled and said to the astonished Athena, "Try to see if you can penetrate this armor with your spear."
Seeing the gleaming golden armor that was fully enclosed and capable of walking on its own, Athena and Arthenis suddenly felt overjoyed.
Judging from the appearance, although it is not the thunder and holy light armor that William himself uses, it also means that William cares about the two sisters.
This made the two sisters, who had always thought that marriage was just a deal, look at William with much gentler eyes.
He took out his spear and struck it on the ground, and the side of Athena, who was wearing a robe, instantly transformed into a Roman-style body armor with exposed arms and thighs. William shook his head when he saw it.
I don’t know if it’s a design concept issue or an Olympus aesthetic issue. Anyway, this kind of armor cannot protect the whole body. Even if William is confident that his body has higher defense than ordinary divine armor, he will never wear it.
Then he watched Athena stab the vibranium armor with a spear. There was a "ding" sound, and she saw that although the golden spear penetrated into the armor, it did not penetrate. Only the tip of the spear penetrated about three centimeters.
While Athena and Arthenis were pleasantly surprised, William shook his head, silently thinking about whether to give his two newlyweds the Blank Sentinel Armor.
