I was a priest in the city-state era

Chapter 220 Spartan King Perieres

Sea of ​​Thira.

The strait between the Peloponnese and Crete has long been a busy and dangerous sea passage.

Because ships in this era usually sailed along the coast to ensure that the ship would not get lost on the endless sea where it was difficult to distinguish east, west, north, south.

When the ship passed the Cape Maria at the southeastern tip of the Peloponnese Peninsula, many ships encountered the wind and rammed into Cape Maria.

At this time, a fast ship was sailing on the sea like an arrow from the string. Roy stood at the bow and looked ahead, but he was thinking about mass-manufacturing compasses and nautical charts.

Ships of this era sailed along the coast, not only increasing the risk of life from pirate attacks, but also increasing the time of the voyage.

Lowy promoted compasses and nautical charts on a large scale, and ships no longer sailed along the coast, which not only shortened the sailing time, but also reduced the risk of ships being attacked by pirates.

"Compasses and nautical charts can not only bring huge benefits to ships, but also ensure the safety of navigation. Even if I offer [-] catties of grain in exchange for compass and nautical charts, those merchants at sea will snap their heads. But I I want to give free compass and nautical charts to those ship owners who come to the city of Athens for trade, because the nautical charts I want to provide to them are only the routes in the Aegean Sea region.”

As soon as Roy made a decision, a fleet lined up like a long snake appeared on the sea ahead.

From south to north, this naval fleet has a total of fifty warships lying across the sea. It is obviously the coalition fleet of Sparta and Tenaron.

At the same time that Roy discovered the coalition fleet, the coalition fleet also discovered Roy's fast ship and the twenty Donian warships behind it.

So the coalition fleet immediately adjusted its formation, preparing to fight the Donian navy brought by Roy.

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the enemy, the captain of the Clippers asked Lowy.

"Your Majesty, should we stop and wait and approach the enemy fleet with the Donian navy?"

"Keep sailing at full speed!"

Roy said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I will not let you fight the enemy. When our ship is 300 meters away from the enemy's ship, I will fight the enemy alone. You stop to prevent the Donians from hindering my war alone. "

Hearing that Roy said that he would fight the enemy alone, the captain and sailors stared at Roy in disbelief.

Although these Athenians knew that Roy was a powerful hero [Enemy of a Thousand], Roy's idea of ​​challenging 500 people alone was a bit too crazy.

Seeing the reactions of the captain and sailors, Roy said with a serious expression.

"I'm not joking. This war is my own. Just now I was ordering you to prevent the Donians from hindering my own war."

After saying the following words to the captain, seeing that there was a distance of about 300 meters between his fast ship and the enemy's warship, Roy muttered in his heart and summoned his black wings.

Sky Wings--

Following Roy's call, the divine power in Roy's body surged to his back, revealing a pair of black wings.

Seeing that a pair of wings grew out of Roy's back, the captain and sailors were once again shocked by Roy.

Under the incredible eyes of the captain and sailors, Roy vibrated his black wings, and his body instantly flew over a distance of 300 meters, landing on the flagship of the coalition fleet.

"who are you?"

As soon as Roy's feet landed on the flagship deck of the coalition fleet, a young man wearing a crown and bronze armor questioned Roy.

"Are you a god, or a human like us?"

"Do I look like a god?"

While retracting the Sky Wing, Roy said to the young man who questioned him.

"You have never seen a human being with wings before. Today you have. I am human like you. My name is Loi. I am the king of Donia and the king of Athens. Attica Peninsula, Thebes The region of Sri Lanka, the island of Eubia, the region of Corinth, and the island of Western Crete are all territories under my rule."

"The king of Donia is obviously Radamandes."

As if feeling cheated by Roy, the young man said with a displeased frown.

"Although you are a liar, let me introduce my identity. I am Perieres, the king of Sparta, and the commander of this coalition fleet. If you are the favorite of Radamandis Minister, you can tell Radamandis for me that I have no idea of ​​monopolizing the control of the Strait of Thira. As long as Radamandis is willing to share the control of the Strait of Thira equally with me, the war between us can be avoided. "

"The favorite of Radamandis—"

Hearing Perieris' guess about his identity, Roy raised his bronze spear with his right hand, and then suddenly attacked Perieris.

Clang!
In the nick of time, Perieures blocked Roy's attack with his spear.

Roy erupted with his own strength far superior to that of ordinary heroes, and joked while pushing Perieris back from his feet.

"Spartan King Perieres, I don't just have a pair of wings. Do you think I have this kind of power, would I be a subject of Radamandes?"

In this age, only the strongest can be the rulers, there is no doubt about it.

Seeing that he couldn't match Roy's strength, Perieris widened his eyes in disbelief, and said with Roy's eyes.

"You are really Roy, king of Athens—and you replaced Radamandes as king of Donia?"

"Do I need to deceive you? Just now you asked me for peace between the two sides, and now I also ask you for peace between the two sides. In the future, the navy of Donia City will no longer charge tolls for merchant ships, and will also fight against pirates." , to protect the safety of the surrounding waters. As long as you assure me that your Spartan navy will not charge tolls to merchant ships, and you are willing to fight pirates and protect the safety of the surrounding seas, the war between us can be avoided."

Hearing Roy's request, Perieris said angrily.

"You want us to fight pirates and protect the surrounding waters, but you don't allow us to collect tolls. For making such excessive demands on us, do you regard our city of Sparta as a vassal of the Kingdom of Athens?"

"If you don't want to accept my demands, then let's settle our differences with war."

"Loy, King of Athens, don't think that we will definitely lose to you."

As soon as Perieris finished speaking, he was pushed to the edge of the deck by Roy.

Just when Roy was about to threaten Perieris and push him into the sea if he didn't give in to himself, Perieris took the initiative to retreat and fell into the sea.

Seeing this scene, Roy froze for a moment.

Then he realized that Perrieres obviously didn't want to commit suicide, but that he was different from Roy, who couldn't swim—Perieris was a swimmer.

As soon as Roy regained his senses, a group of Spartan soldiers brandished bronze spears and rushed to attack Roy.

These ignorant soldiers must have mistakenly believed that Roy pushed their king into the sea and wanted to avenge Perieres.
