It's just a simulated universe...

But it was as if he had truly traveled through time again.

When I came to my senses and looked around at the chaotic scene, with wounded people everywhere, I realized...

And the sky gradually darkened.

Who knows when the Greek army will attack again?

Night: 'We can't just sit here and wait to die any longer...'

God knows if things will continue like this.

When will we be able to meet Achilles?

This war will last a full ten years...

He didn't have time to wait patiently.

We must accelerate the progress of this battle.

At the very least, we must hasten the arrival of the Achilles' heel ending!

However, by simply guarding the city, it would be absolutely impossible to make contact with that great ancient Greek hero.

He must risk joining the war to confront them head-on…

Night's mind began to race with thoughts and ideas.

It seems to be through that already powerful and resilient mental strength,

In addition to his absolutely calm judgment, his memory at night has also been enhanced.

The information I had gathered before my transmigration about the Trojan War in ancient Greek mythology now became incredibly clear in my mind.

He even remembers the timeline very clearly.

For a time, he actually found a clearly recorded instance of a direct confrontation with Achilles.

And this timeframe is still very close.

According to records,

After the Greek heroes first landed on the island and repelled Hector's ambush,

The fighting continued into the second day.

The fighting would temporarily cease, and they would begin collecting the bodies and burying the soldiers.

The Greek army would then tow the ships ashore and set up camp nearby.

The outermost flanks were defended by the more powerful Achilles and the more defensively capable Ajax the Great.

King Agamemnon, as the leader, and Odysseus, the military commander, had their tents in the center, so that they could command the entire army and be protected by it.

Later--

Greece would then send representatives to negotiate.

Naturally, the peace talks did not go smoothly.

It was this very negotiation that led to the enraged Greeks launching a full-scale offensive.

After failing to capture Troy after three consecutive sieges,

They will eventually set their sights on other city-states near and around Troy;

These include the islands of Tenedos, Lesbos, Pedas, and Lyrniseus.

Thebes of Boeotia was also captured.

This city was ruled by Hector's wife, Andromarch's father, 'Aetion'.

The one who led the army to conquer this city was none other than the great hero Achilles.

Within a day of the siege, he killed seven of Hector's wife Andromache's brothers.

He also captured Chryseis and Briseis, the two daughters of Chryseus, the priest of Apollo.

Chryseis was given to Agamemnon, the king of Mycenae.

This is a battle in which Achilles is clearly documented to have participated.

Although the result was defeat...

Even the daughter of a priestess was insulted.

The ending was incredibly dark.

But the main purpose of the night was to make contact with Achilles.

Even a battle—this is something that will inevitably happen once they meet, given his current status.

He encountered Achilles face-to-face, yet did not die—

On the contrary, the chances of surviving are no easier than getting ten gold coins in a gacha game.

That is to say-

The result is not important, the process is...

As long as contact with Achilles can be achieved,

After the battle, whether they survived or perished under that divine spear,

It doesn't matter to me. 'Night' pondered, a cold glint flashing in his calm eyes.

What he needed from the beginning was very clear: to maximize the gains in this war.

Achilles' destiny (hero template)...

Even if he dies afterward, it's just the end of the simulated universe test...

If you're not satisfied, you can always start over later.

There will always be a chance to conquer this universe.

He doesn't have time to waste ten years here fighting the Greek army.

With that time,

Wouldn't it be better to get the template sooner, go to other simulated universes to become stronger?

On this battlefield known as the Trojan War,

Besides the meat grinder named madness and slaughter,

There were simply no other opportunities to be found.

It's definitely not a good place to settle down, train, or learn skills...

Perhaps it can increase some combat experience and temper one's mind.

This is one of the few benefits.

And it was during those nighttime reflections...

Both the Greeks and the Trojans began collecting the corpses from the battlefield.

They had clearly prepared an ambush.

Unexpectedly, the casualties were still so heavy in the end.

When they saw the piles of soldiers' corpses being cremated,

The number of corpses found outside the city, in particular, was several times greater than those that died during the city's defense.

Hector, the leader of Troy's defenses, felt a heavy weight in his heart upon seeing this...

Hector: 'It seems we won't be able to go out and engage in skirmishes for a while.'

Before figuring out a way to defeat Achilles...

In battles outside the city, no one was a match for that guy.

What a terrifying enemy...

The city walls, built by Apollo, the sun god, and Poseidon, the sea god, could barely hold off the Greek coalition.

Hector was heavy-hearted, but remained relatively calm.

The walls of the city of Troy are said to be...

It was built by Apollo, the god of light, and Poseidon, the god of the sea, two of the twelve Olympian gods, using their divine power. This is why Achilles, the son of a demigod, could not possibly destroy it head-on.

What I thought before nightfall was correct.

The city of Troy was indeed protected by the divine power of the gods.

Or, on the surface, this war appears to be merely a war between the Greek coalition and Troy.

In reality, it was still a contest between gods.

The Wall of Troy was indeed very tall and sturdy, giving people a great sense of security.

However, even with the strength of the city walls,

It can defend against the heroes' assault, but for those enemy troops who want to scale the walls, a large number of soldiers are still needed to hold the fort.

To be honest——

Hector did not really want to continue the war.

The enemy was far stronger than they had imagined. Even with the walls created by the gods, they could only protect them, but could not help them eliminate the enemy army after they left the city.

At this point, Hector, though finding the situation troublesome, was still unaware of the gravity of the matter.

They were still relying on the defensive strength of the Trojan walls, waiting for an opportunity for a desperate counterattack.

However, if Ye could hear his thoughts, he would surely tell him how difficult it was for this opportunity to come...

In order to find the weakness of Achilles, the greatest warrior of the Greeks

Hector ultimately lost everything.

It is easy to imagine how difficult it was to seize the opportunity for this desperate counterattack, and how high the cost was; otherwise, the war would not have been dragged on for ten years.

Night knew exactly how formidable these enemies were, even more so than Hector.
