Simulating the Universe, Starting with Speedrunning Greece

Hector, who had just decided not to care about the surrounding city-states and gave up other cities, looked a little unnatural.

If it were a normal time, in a different place, hearing this kind of praise,

He will certainly accept it with a smile.

but now--

The conversation changed again, and Ye's tone suddenly rose, and he said loudly: "But when -

The fearless warrior of Troy,

Will you also be afraid of the sharpness of the enemy's spears?

Today Troy gave up trying to rescue other cities.

tomorrow--

When Troy was in trouble, no allied country would be willing to support or help Troy.

Or--

Lord Hector, you really have the heart to see so many ordinary people being ravaged by the barbaric Greeks.

Even your wife's family will not be spared.

They might even arrest the priests and priestesses who offer sacrifices to the sun god Apollo.

Give them, and the most beautiful daughters in the city, to Agamemnon, the leader of Troy's enemies?"

When I heard this,

Hector's face finally turned completely ugly.

Not only because I heard Ye mention his wife's relatives again,

There is also the line about how all the priestesses of the god Apollo were captured and offered to Agamemnon.

Thebes was a city dedicated to the sun god Apollo.

The name of the main god Apollo is a taboo that is rarely mentioned in Troy. (The reason is not mentioned for now)

But if the enemy did conquer Thebes,

Given the barbaric style of the Greeks, they would certainly not miss out on looting.

Indulge in sensual things...

Not to mention sending the priestess who served God to their own king,

Even having a party in a newly conquered city was very Greek.

No one would be surprised.

Chapter 11 I can sleep under a pile of earth so that I won’t have to hear your wailing!

So here comes the question——!

When it comes to wine and sex, the Greeks are impulsive and do things without thinking!

Even if you know that doing some things will offend the gods or even bring down their wrath.

But the lawless Greek hero still dared to do it.

In this heroic age where basically everyone is a demigod (the brain is in the lower body, people do things without thinking, and don't know how to weigh the pros and cons)——

Ye: Bah, it’s an era where basically all the bloodlines of kings of various countries can be traced back to a certain Alexandre Dumas God King Zeus.

Either it's Zeus, or it's related to another Alexandre Dumas, Poseidon.

These two brothers are the main ones.

The remaining Greek male gods are supplemented by a few goddesses.

Many gods and humans have united and given birth to offspring.

That’s why——

Many of the Greek heroes actually had bloodlines and backgrounds.

Here, the dividing line between gods and humans in mythology is more confusing and unclear than in myths of other regions.

Heroes are fearless.

An arrogant person who doesn't even take the gods seriously.

Therefore, many people offended the gods and were cursed and punished.

In short - a bunch of young people!

Back to the topic——

If the Greeks take the city,

He gave Apollo's witch to Agamemnon...

At that time, Troy, which had a cold relationship with the sun god Apollo,

By then, not only Greece, the culprit,

Troy, which failed to protect the city and caused the witch to be defiled, would inevitably be angered by the sun god again.

Seize the opportunity to beat the downed dog.

Speaking of which,

We have to mention the awkward relationship between Troy and the gods.

At the beginning, Troy was supported by the great god Zeus.

The ancestors of the Trojans were descendants of the great god Zeus.

Even the founding of Troy was inspired by God. It can be said that it was a city-state truly protected and guarded by Zeus.

Later, during the city construction process,

Even the beautiful goddess Athena, under the assignment of Zeus, came down to earth to guide and protect these mortals and became the patron saint of Troy.

Because of his rebellion against Zeus,

Apollo and Poseidon were driven out of heaven.

Zeus deliberately exiled him here and reached an agreement with the King of Troy at that time.

He built the mighty Trojan Wall for the Trojans for a pittance of low pay.

But when the city wall was completed,

However, the King of Troy changed his mind and did not give the proper reward. Instead, he drove Apollo and others out.

This also completely offended these two gods...

They swore that when they returned to heaven in the future, they would one day avenge today's humiliation.

Now Apollo and Poseidon have returned to the throne of the twelve gods.

Without the threat,

The Trojans lived in constant fear of revenge from these two gods.

Although until now the punishment and disaster from the gods have not yet come.

Many Trojans firmly believed that the great god Zeus would always stand behind them and protect them.

Apollo and Poseidon didn't dare to do anything!!

But the revenge of Apollo and Poseidon has not yet arrived.

The Trojans, who had gradually let down their guard, thought that the two had forgotten the old incident.

Or give up hatred.

but--

The Greek gods are famously petty.

The Trojans didn't know.

Because what they did before was really too much,

As human beings…

Disrespecting and even humiliating the gods,

These actions not only offended Apollo and Poseidon,

This also made Zeus, who had a strong desire for control, feel dissatisfied and disgusted.

For humans who are too arrogant,

Zeus didn't like...

Even behind this Trojan War,

If I remember correctly,

Rumor has it that this God King is in charge.

The Queen of Gods Hera and the goddess of wisdom Athena, who once protected the city, also got involved.

He sided with Greece and wanted to destroy the dishonest Troy.

On the surface——

Troy has many gods protecting it.

Zeus, the king of gods, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty.

But in fact, the camp of gods behind Troy does not stand up to scrutiny at all.

Even the golden apple event dedicated to the most beautiful goddess,

This was the source of the fuse that triggered the Trojan War (disaster).

It is possible that this was a sign from Zeus.

If Big Brother himself asks you to die, can you still live?

Although the gods had no excuse to destroy Troy directly,

But it secretly contributed to the formation of this huge battle.

It can be said that the whole of Greece wanted Troy to be defeated and destroyed.

The water is too deep here.

So this is why Ye felt that it was unrealistic to lead Troy to a comeback.

It's just a pity that they are used as tools.

Helen, who was miserably inspired by the gods and thought she was in love with Paris, came to Troy.

certainly--

Hector didn't know so much at this time.

All he was thinking about now was how not to offend Apollo, the sun god.

At least we can’t let the gods suffer…

Then Troy would really become a hell on earth.

This war, started and caused by his brother,

As a brother——

Hector volunteered to take on the responsibility.

Not to mention--

Hector was one of the few Greek heroes who paid great attention to personal feelings.
