Later, the old priest Chryseth wanted to pay a large ransom to redeem his daughter, but Agamemnon refused.

Chryseth prayed to the gods,

Upon learning of this, Apollo, the god of light, unleashed a plague upon humankind, inflicting divine punishment upon the Greek coalition.

Agamemnon was then forced to return Chryseth's daughter.

However, his youngest daughter soon caught Agamemnon's eye, but that's another story.

For Aetion and Chryseth at this moment—

The problem at hand is their biggest crisis.

outside world--

Achilles did not take action himself.

He was already somewhat tired of this unequal and tedious war.

The rest can be left to the soldiers under my command.

but--

The demigod was still somewhat bothered by the burst of light he had just witnessed.

Why did Apollo perform miracles...?

But nothing happened?

If that chief god was truly angry because the city he was protecting was destroyed, then...

They can't just come out, turn on a light, and run away, can they?

Just as Achilles casually took out an apple he had previously picked up from an empty market stall in Thebes and took a bite...

When the apple juice bursts in your mouth,

at the same time--

It's like throwing a pebble into a calm lake.

A new turning point suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

"Enemy forces!!! It's enemy forces!!"

"Enemy reinforcements have arrived, Lord Achilles!"

"They're attacking from behind!" A panicked cry came from the soldiers at the rear.

Achilles shuddered...

When I heard that sound, my first thought was, 'Impossible!!!'

How could there possibly be reinforcements?!

Where did the reinforcements come from?

Troy and the surrounding small cities were struggling to survive and had no troops to spare.

"How many enemies are there?!" Achilles asked solemnly, turning around immediately.

"One...one, no...it should be more than a dozen people."

Led by a warrior wielding a golden spear, they charged forward with unstoppable force.

"We've lost so many brothers! We can't hold them off at all!" the soldier said nervously.

Achilles: ...! !

A dozen or so men charged his army.

Still can't stop it at all?!

Hero—! Achilles immediately realized,

This is the arrival of the Trojan heroes.

Only heroes far beyond ordinary people can accomplish such an absurd miracle.

Suddenly, Achilles was like a lion awakened.

He suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a sharp, excited gaze.

"After being here for so long, have we finally found something interesting?"

However, the hero wielding the golden spear...

Who is this?

Subconsciously, a figure flashed through Achilles' mind.

He was also the only warrior he had ever longed to fight when he saw him on the battlefield during the previous battles with the Trojans.

A man like him, possessing the strongest spear, the strongest shield, and an invincible body on the battlefield.

They look so alike...

anyway,

He must defeat this person.

Only in this way can we prove who is the strongest hero in Greece.

"Hector...!!" Achilles murmured the name of his nemesis.

If that person is you, that would be wonderful; if not... then I hope it is!

Use your head,

Show the world a shot as swift as a meteor!

Achilles then immediately headed in the direction the soldiers had indicated.

But when he arrived at the battlefield, he did not see the hero wielding the golden spear.

They didn't even see a trace of the so-called enemy.

Achilles: "Where are the enemy soldiers?!"

"Lord Achilles...those people seem to have only come to rescue some people, and they are not interested in fighting."

They took a group of prisoners and then left.

Achilles: "...!"

Could there be someone of high status among those prisoners?

At that moment, a soldier spoke up in a panic. He seemed to vaguely hear those people shouting that they had found him, that Lord Etion and Priest Chryseus were both there.

Achilles: ...! Oh no!

Could it be that they attacked an empty shell before?

The most noble person in this city has already been captured?

Achilles did not know who Aetion was.

He hadn't inquired about who the city's governing body was before he arrived.

But the priest behind him is of a very high status.

For a moment, Achilles thought of something...

The priests of Apollo, the chief god, were rescued.

Could this rescue force have been summoned or directed by Apollo?

He gritted his teeth slightly, hesitating for a moment whether to pursue...

“By the way, I think I heard those soldiers calling the hero who was leading the group Hector!” one soldier said.

next moment,

Achilles immediately and decisively declared, "I'll personally go after them for a while! I'll be back soon! You all continue the attack on the city center!"

Regardless of whether the most prominent person in Thebes was rescued,

Achilles decided to take a two-pronged approach to avoid missing anything.

His chariot was pulled by heavenly horses, far surpassing that of ordinary carriages.

If the enemy hasn't gone far, he can catch up quickly by acting alone.

Hector!!! It really is you!

When I heard that name

Achilles' warlike will could no longer be contained.

Without further hesitation, Achilles swiftly boarded the chariot.

"Lord Achilles!!!" Amid the soldiers' shouts, Achilles left them with only a dashing and carefree silhouette before turning and walking away.

"How to do?"

"...We have no choice but to obey Lord Achilles' orders and continue the attack on the city center!" The soldiers looked at each other for a moment, then gritted their teeth and continued fighting.

Even if the head coach is gone,

But the remaining remnants of the army are not so badly defeated that Lord Achilles need to intervene personally; they can handle them on their own.

As for whether Lord Achilles will be injured while pursuing the enemy...

This was something the soldiers had never even considered.

Lord Achilles, possessing an invulnerable body, immense strength, and a powerful set of divinely crafted armor,

How could we possibly lose?

Even amidst a vast army, that demigod hero could move freely!

Not to mention a small team of a dozen or so people who didn't dare to linger in battle.

And on the other side,

In Thebes, on a secluded, deserted path.

This was discovered during the nighttime cleanup of the city and the gathering of remaining troops; it was an empty street deliberately cleared out by someone.
