Simulating the Universe, Starting with Speedrunning Greece

Chapter 44: Hunting is not simply killing. God never needs such a thing.

Faced with Ye's coercion, Agamemnon's face looked very ugly, and Ye's handsome face was no longer so attractive in his eyes.

Finally, Night took away a large amount of gold and soldiers from Agamemnon.

On the surface, Agamemnon also stated that this was a donation from him as the king to support Ye who had come thousands of miles to support him.

This barely saved Agamemnon's last bit of face.

Agamemnon, who was furious and wanted to kill several times, finally suppressed the impulse because of the goddess behind the night.

In Greece, you need a background to get involved.

Otherwise Agamemnon can make you understand what it means that the dead talk more than the living, but can never speak.

Afterwards, Agamemnon convened a grand banquet. Previously, he had invited Ye alone, but now that the deal was settled, he would take Ye to meet other heroes.

At the banquet, Ye saw many heroes one after another.

The famous ones include Ajax the Elder and Ajax the Younger, Diomedes, Odysseus, and the miserable Spartan king Menelaos.

There are also many heroes who are not very famous, such as Idomeneus, king of Crete, Thoas, king of Tauria, Thessaly, king of Ormenium, and Teucer, the first king of Troy.

There are many such writing heroes, pronounced as king, who are actually just heroes to make up the numbers.

Achilles did not come - it seems that he is still in a state of cold war and autism.

Ye's main focus now is on those powerful heroes, such as Diomedes, with whom he had just had a fierce battle.

As expected of a hero from the Age of Gods, who was able to hurt the gods in the end, his body is very strong.

Diomedes had recovered from such a serious injury before, but now he is able to attend the banquet normally.

However, during the entire banquet, Diomedes didn't talk much to Ye——!

At the banquet, other kings were very curious about Ye. King Thoas of Taulia even ignored Agamemnon's ugly face and showed great enthusiasm for Ye.

Of course, this is not without reason due to their beliefs.

In mythology, this was a ruthless person who believed in the moon god to the point of being obsessed.

He almost sacrificed his two sons to the moon goddess, but was finally saved by Iphigenia.

It is worth mentioning that Iphigenia was the daughter of the Mycenaean Kingdom, who was almost sacrificed to the moon god by her own father Agamemnon.

But unlike Agamemnon who was forced to do so, Thoas was even more of a weirdo who voluntarily sacrificed his two sons.

When he expressed regret for not being able to sacrifice his two precious sons to Lady Artemis.

Ye couldn't help it: "The pure Moon Goddess never needs others to sacrifice living people.

Although Lady Artemis has the side of a hunting goddess, what she loves is definitely not killing, but the free hunting process itself.

Even in the case of Iphigenia, the merciful goddess did not take her life.

Please don't do anything that would embarrass the goddess, Thoas."

Toas was stunned.

No human sacrifice required?

But their tradition is to sacrifice people to the moon god. Even he, as the king, believed it and was so crazy that he almost killed his two sons.

And now I tell her that the goddess doesn’t like it?

He was angry and incredulous, and wanted to refute——

Someone had said something similar before, but he didn't believe it at all and even chopped them all off.

But the one saying this now is the hero Griffith.

The other party's identity as someone riding a divine deer could not be faked. As a follower and messenger of Artemis, there was absolutely no possibility of deceiving him.

So I really did something wrong?

For a moment, Toas's expression became extremely dazed, and he fell into autism. There was no sound anymore. He just hid in a corner and drank alone.

And Ye reluctantly kept this person in mind.

Although this king's character is not very good.

But the belief in the moon god can be utilized.

Even if he doesn't use it and lets their morale be dampened, at least the soldiers he brought from Tauria still have good combat effectiveness on the battlefield.

This also reduced the morale of the Greek coalition forces.

But what Ye could not have expected was that just when he was teaching Toas a lesson, a breeze blew, instantly making Ye feel refreshed, and the blessing of the Moon Goddess in his body became incomparably full.

Just now, night had fallen and the moon had appeared. Ye, who had already begun to recover extremely quickly under the blessing of the Moon Goddess, was healed instantly under the blessing of this sudden abundance of power.

This is obviously the work of Artemis——

Ye:? It seems that the goddess is still paying attention to this place.

Is she satisfied with what I did just now?

At this time Artemis did not show up. It seemed that she had seen the previous negotiations between her and Agamemnon and had reluctantly accepted the offer and calmed down.

This made Ye a little disappointed. He had originally planned to take advantage of his girlfriend Agamemnon and then turn around and complain to Artemis, asking her to severely punish Agamemnon.

Given Zeus's doting on his little daughter, if Artemis wanted to go after Agamemnon, Zeus would probably not only not resist, but would also take the initiative to capture Agamemnon and bully him.

When Artemis has vented her anger, she will continue to help the Greek coalition forces.

This is no problem at all...

After all, whoever the King of Gods wants to win will win in the end.

The king of mankind is nothing more than their plaything. Why should we care about their feelings? !

Have you ever seen gods care about human (humans care about ants) senses?

With just a few words from Achilles' mother, the sea nymph, Zeus could allow Troy to win the first battle and then help Greece defeat Troy.

But the King of Gods didn't care how many Greek soldiers and heroes died.

However - even if Artemis did not come down to take action.

After Ye left, Agamemnon still got furious and even took his anger out on the beauties around him.

That night, the screams of women continued to be heard in Agamemnon's tent, but no one dared to stand up and stop him.

It can be seen that Agamemnon was unable to lose his temper at the previous banquet, but he was actually very unhappy about Ye extorting money from him.

After all, the money to compensate Ye was almost all paid out of Agamemnon's own pocket, so it would be a miracle if he could laugh about it.

then--

At a unique banquet, except for Agamemnon from the Ninja Turtles and King Tauria who was said to be autistic and in self-doubt, the other heroes all had a good sense of the night.

That is, neither enthusiasm nor disgust, just a dull state.

Oh, and exclude a certain Odysseus who was envious of his status as a lunar goddess.

However, it left a very deep impression on many heroes.

When Agamemnon said--since Ye is a reinforcement, what position should he be assigned to?

Many heroes originally frowned, not wanting another person to come and compete with them for military merit.

Especially those heroes who are in good positions now and are very satisfied with the status quo, they do not want Ye's appearance to disrupt their originally stable interest distribution relationship.

However, what people didn't expect was that Ye didn't fight for those important positions that could allow him to go to the front line and gain military merit. This move not only surprised the heroes who put aside their hostility, but even stunned Agamemnon.

You don't even want rights?

Chapter 45: The Old Man with the Opposite Purpose to Night, the King of Pylos

It was normal that Agamemnon did not attach importance to the night.

After all, all other heroes brought their families and a large number of soldiers with them, or their entire family, brothers, or fathers and sons, all went into battle together.

For example, Achilles and Ajax the Great are cousins ​​in the coalition, and Ajax the Great and Teucer are brothers.

But who could have thought that Ye would suddenly become a follower of the Moon God, and even be able to ride the sacred deer that only Artemis could ride. This shows how much the Moon God values ​​him.

Agamemnon had lost so many soldiers and wealth to Night, so naturally he wanted to throw Night to the front line and defeat her.

It is more painful to see your enemy getting rich than to see yourself losing money.

He couldn't stand this kind of blatant paddling behavior——

However, Agamemnon wanted to use his status as the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces to pressure Yevhen to fight on the front line, preferably to die in the front. This way he would not offend the moon goddess, and could even let the furious moon goddess join the Greek side to punish Troy, which would be too wonderful.

Agamemnon, who was not completely blinded by desire and still retained some heroic wisdom, was quickly silenced by Ye's words.

“I’m just a musician, I don’t have any fighting power.

I can use music to soothe the soldiers' pain and inspire the courage in their hearts, and that is why I am here.

Although I don't have as much power as the heroes, I can still help Greece in my own way."

Ye told everyone not to despise their own weakness.

Many heroes even said they dared not—!

Many heroes were happy with Ye's choice, although what made them feel shameless was Ye's ability to tell lies with open eyes.

You call the fighting power that almost killed Diomedes weak?

Are you a musician?

But soon, Ye suddenly took out the harp and showed off at the banquet.

The group of heroes immediately clapped their hands in admiration and all knelt down——!

This level of music really is what a musician is all about.

The heroes expressed their friendliness and support for Ye Bu's behavior of fighting for power.

That's right - sending a musician to war is no less than murder.

As heroes, they would never do such evil things.

And great King of Mycenae -! As the leader of all their heroes, you cannot force the apostle of the moon god, a noble bard, to go to the battlefield.

Under pressure from many sides, Agamemnon had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​giving Ye Qiang a position. He temporarily assigned him a logistics job and allowed him to move freely.

Agamemnon secretly hated this.

He was once the king of kings. No one could resist his decree, no matter whether you were as powerful as Athens or Sparta, no matter if you were a country with the demigod hero Achilles, or as wise as Odysseus, everyone had to obey his orders and go to war with him.

But the successive defeats on the Trojan battlefield, coupled with the heroes' own calculations and the incident in which Achilles almost killed himself, greatly reduced Agamemnon's prestige in the eyes of heroes and kings.

In the past, he was the one who had the final say. But now, not only can he not play with women, but he is also blocked from holding a position.

What a hateful thing this is!

Well - that's what happened at the party.

However, it is worth mentioning that besides Achilles, there was another person who did not attend the banquet.

In other words - the other party does not welcome the arrival of night.

After leaving that night, an old man suddenly came to Agamemnon's tent without even notifying anyone, and no one blocked the old man's way.

When he entered the house, he saw broken plates, meat and wine scattered all over the floor, and a bloody woman with her lower body naked. He looked up and saw the old man and begged, "Please save me... Nestor... Sir."

The old man called Nestor frowned and ignored the woman, as if the tragic scene before him was just like the weeds that could be seen everywhere and was not worth mentioning.

He looked at Agamemnon, who was now tired, naked and covered in blood, and was lying on the throne playing with his sword.

Nestor: "Agamemnon - you can't go on like this.

Listen to me and make peace with Achilles.

As long as we have Achilles, our army can turn the disadvantage around at any time...The Amazon queen invited by the Trojans is nothing compared to this true demigod.

For a woman, you have come to this point. "

Nestor - King of Pylos.

This is an experienced and highly respected hero.
