Chapter 42 The King of Troy invites you to a party

The owl held a thin silk thread in its mouth and flapped its wings vigorously before flying away.

At this time, Xue Lufen didn't know that he had been targeted by a main god, but it didn't matter even if he knew.

His only enemy was originally Zeus, and perhaps there were a few Olympian gods who could become his companions in killing Zeus.

But, it's too slow!

The arrogance of the gods is engraved in their bones. He is not willing to increase the favorability of a few of the gods bit by bit. They will be tolerant of mortal heroes, but will always be high and mighty. It is estimated that it will take several years or even decades to increase the favorability of a god to the point that he is willing to help him win over Zeus.

And he might even be forced to sell hooks, after all, this is open ancient Greece, where almost everyone (god) is bisexual.

Although the Great Sage is much stronger than the old undead in terms of knowledge and ability, the Great Sage's biggest problem is that he cannot directly provide Xue Fa Lun with powerful combat power.

Xue Falun can only rely on the knowledge and intelligence provided by the great sage.

In comparison, the old undead is like a thug who can provide him with a safety net, while the great sage is more like a logistical assistant who is in charge of the overall situation.

So, without a trump card, he could only move cautiously. He didn't want to be beaten to his knees by a Greek god and dragged back to the temple...

While Xue Falun was thinking along the way, Hector had already brought him to the palace.

The palace was extremely lively at this moment, with wine and delicious food everywhere. Hector had dozens of brothers and sisters, some of whom became famous in later generations. Of course, in this era, they did not have their own stories and achievements, so they were not even considered heroes.

Because it was a family gathering, the princesses of Troy also came to the banquet.

The king on the throne gestured to Hector, but Hector shook his head. He felt that all temptations and suspicions were insults to the selfless hero.

When the king saw Hector's attitude, he instantly became enthusiastic. He had great faith in his eldest son. He believed that this was the greatest treasure Troy had obtained, and he would even become the most powerful hero in all of Greece.

As for the hero recognized by his eldest son, he immediately asked his daughters to bring wine and delicious food to serve the so-called "loving hero."

This kind of thing would be outrageous in the history of other countries, but it is very common in Greece.

Yes, although it seems explosive from a modern perspective, it makes sense in ancient Greece where the small head controls the big head.

So at this time, Xue Falun also noticed that something was wrong.

The King of Troy invited you to an eagle party, and among them were even the sisters Chryseis and Briseis, who were later said to be as beautiful as Helen?

yes or no?
Xue Fa Lun immediately nodded no and retreated behind Hector.

He didn't want to end up with a head full of green hats. This is ancient Greece, and those who understand will understand...

Besides, his purpose of coming here was indeed for a Trojan princess, but not for the eagle.

Seeing Xue Lufen taking half a step back, the princesses who were originally excited suddenly felt dimmed, because this was a sign that the hero rejected them.

However, Xue Lufen did not pay attention to these princesses who seemed to be about to cry. He looked at the girl who did not come towards him before, but was silently shrinking in the corner.

She was also a princess of Troy, but unlike her sisters, she lived in the tragedy of suspicion all her life.

In Greek mythology, Cassandra, the Trojan princess known as the "Witch of Prophecy," was another witch as famous as "Medea, the Witch of Betrayal." Cursed by a divine serpent, she possessed the ability to foresee fate and the future, but the price was that no Greek would ever trust her.

Therefore, in the original history, even though she saw the future of the Trojan War, no one believed anything she said. Instead, they thought she was a jinx and imprisoned her.

Even her brothers and sisters, and even her parents, no one believed her. They all thought she was a vicious woman who was full of lies. This was the price of gaining the ability to predict the future.

But at this moment, Xue Lufen left behind those gorgeous princesses and walked over to the unassuming witch. He softly asked the 13-year-old girl, "Did you see my ending?"

Cassandra, who was like Cinderella at the banquet, raised her head and looked at the "loving hero" in front of her with her originally lovely face.

"You...will you believe me?" She said this almost excitedly. After all, since she was a child, she has been accustomed to the fact that no one would believe what she said.

Compared with the other princesses with curvy figures, she was as thin as a farmer's child, with a skinny body. Even her biological parents hated her because she was "full of lies".

But at this moment, she felt for the first time the joy of being believed in her heart. Cassandra was ready to use her prophecy. She would not let this hero down and would definitely give the most perfect prophecy.

"My dear hero, my daughter is really unruly and a liar. The ones who are really suitable for you are Chryseis and Briseis, who are as beautiful as elves in both face and heart." The king began to feel that things were a little beyond his expectations.

Although he did have the idea of ​​using his daughters as commodities to win over heroes, this "lying" daughter was definitely not one of them.

"Shh!" Xue Falu signaled the king to be quiet.

The king could only turn his head to look at Hector, and a group of princes also turned their heads to look at their eldest brother.

Seeing that Hector didn't say anything, the atmosphere became extremely weird, and everyone looked at Xue Lufen who was squatting in front of the little girl.

Xue Falun ignored those malicious or dissatisfied glances and said to Cassandra, "I will believe it. So, did you see it?"

"I... can definitely see it." Cassandra launched her prophecy to Xue Falun, but the next moment, she was completely stunned.

She stood there like a statue, tears welling up in her eyes under the gaze of countless people. She seemed to be trying hard to cover her mouth, but she couldn't control the tears that dripped down her cheeks like surging waves and onto the ground.

"We succeeded, didn't we?" Xue Lufeng said with a smile as gentle as the breeze. "In that future..."

But in Cassandra's eyes, why could this hero still laugh? Why, even though he knew he would face such a future, he could still laugh...

She covered her mouth, she couldn't say anything, because as soon as she said it, the gods would know, and everything the hero in front of them had done would be in vain. This was something she absolutely, absolutely could not forgive!
She covered her mouth tightly, tears welling up in her eyes, and just nodded slightly.

……

[So that's how it is. Is this how her prophetic ability is realized?] The Great Sage sent a message through the panel.

[Possessing the ability to observe "history," yet not being trusted by anyone or even God, is this how the power of this world works?]

[Son, I have completed the analysis here.]

【I will try to add a prediction module for you.】
