Simulating the Universe, Starting with Speedrunning Greece

Page 152

Now Athena saw great musical talent, courage and certain strength in Ye. Even a picky god like Apollo could not take his eyes off his handsome appearance. It can be said that apart from his knowledge and experience, his strength, although not bad, was not good enough compared with the gods.

If Ye was a single man with good character, Athena might have been attracted to him by now.

However, her curiosity about Ye was still gradually increasing. At first, she wanted to vent her anger for Diomedes and punish him, but as she observed unconsciously, the idea faded away and she was almost forgetting it.

Diomedes, who didn't even know that he had been forgotten by his own god, would cry so hard in the toilet if he knew the truth.

Soon, the butterfly effect caused by Ye's defeat of Diomedes began to ferment.

It was noon when the Trojan army suddenly launched a sneak attack on the Greek camp. The reason was that Apollo was in a good mood after listening to the song in the morning, so he ran to secretly convey the oracle to Hector, telling him that Diomedes, the top combat force in the coalition, was seriously injured and could basically not exert any combat effectiveness.

Apollo, who didn't know which side he would stand on until the later stage, seemed to stand on the side of Troy in advance this time because of his sister and Ye.

then--

Changed——!

The original historical turn suddenly began to change beyond recognition.

Chapter 51: The old idiot is bullying, the old idiot is cheating, it’s time to interrupt the spell!

When the Trojan army swept in, they launched a general attack on the Greek coalition forces.

By the time the Greek side reacted, the two sides had been fighting for a day before they retreated and fell into a new confrontation.

Because Diomedes, the top fighter, was missing from the battlefield, the Greek army, which was already overwhelmed by the loss of Achilles and had to face the Amazon queen, was immediately hit hard.

Many kings were injured in this war, and Toas, who had been chatting with Ye before, was seriously injured and almost saw the Moon Goddess in his dreams.

The victim, King Menelaos of Sparta, was nearly shot dead by an arrow from the enemy hero's sharpshooter, Pandaros.

If Athena had not secretly protected Menelaos' body, allowing the arrow to penetrate his skin without hurting his bones, this victim would have died in this war early.

At the critical moment, Ajax the Great took the initiative to block Hector and bought some time for Greece.

The famous scene where the divine spear Hector used all his strength but still failed to penetrate the shield of Ajax was also reproduced on the battlefield.

When the war was over, the Trojans were finally driven back.

Agamemnon immediately convened a battle meeting and all the heroes were required to be present, including Odysseus and Ye who came to the tent as logistics personnel.

Ye, who had just entered the tent, saw Agamemnon, who was furious...

He angrily denounced the Trojans' meanness and shamelessness, as well as the incompetence of many heroes present.

"Gathering all the heroes of Greece, not a single one of them could rival Hector.

You are simply bringing shame to your heroic name... good-for-nothings, a bunch of good-for-nothings!" Agamemnon scolded coldly, and at the same time suddenly threw a wine glass to the ground, and immediately the red wine spilled all over the carpet like blood.

This dirty appearance made the heroes below look very ugly.

Many heroes, led by Odysseus, did not say anything, but they were also angry at this time.

Agamemnon, you are awesome, why don't you go and fight Hector in a one-on-one duel? Won't you be unable to beat that man anyway?

The wise Nestor then calmly spoke up and advised, “Agamemnon… now is not the time to lose your temper.

If you can get Achilles back, Hector won't be a problem."

As soon as the old man opened his mouth, Agamemnon, who was furious, suddenly fell silent. He was silent for a while, then sat back on the throne with a grim face.

Humph! !! !!

Agamemnon snorted coldly and said nothing.

Get Achilles back?!

Doesn't that mean that he, the king of kings, must bow down to it?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

A mere prince of a small country wants to snatch a woman from me.

The arrogant and conceited King of Mycenae would never allow himself to bow to his rival.

Agamemnon also noticed that many heroes had eager expressions on their faces, as if they were all expecting the return of the invincible Achilles.

But the more this happened, the more Agamemnon hated Achilles.

Achilles, as a subject, disobeyed him as a king. But these subjects did not think about how to make Achilles admit his mistake, but wanted him, the king, to bow his head and ask for mercy?

At this time, Ajax the Great could not help but plead for mercy for his cousin Achilles.

Afterwards, some heroes who got along well with Achilles came to plead for him, hoping that Agamemnon would invite him back.

By the end, almost all the heroes spoke up for Achilles.

Even those who were not familiar with Achilles had seen how powerful he was on the battlefield, and they also believed that his fighting power would be indispensable in subsequent battles.

…Only Ye stood there doing nothing.

As a newcomer, he was like a transparent person. Even if he said nothing, no one would pay attention to him. At the same time, as a newcomer, he should not be familiar with the Greek "heroes" on the surface.

Naturally, I won't speak rashly.

Ye also used this opportunity to observe the relationships between each hero.

However, the only old man who had not appeared at the banquet to welcome Ye, Nestor, suddenly spoke up, his words directed at Ye: "Sir Griffith, do you have any opinions?

Now that everyone wants Achilles to return, you are the only one who hasn't spoken.

I guess there is a better way to solve the current problem in your mind.”

Nestor's words immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked towards Ye.

As for the ability of this new hero, although I heard that he defeated Diomedes, it seems that he was not feeling well at that time, and he did not see the detailed battle process. Many heroes did not comment on his combat power, but they also wanted to know what he thought?

Ye glanced at Nestor, who had no expression on his face, but Ye's powerful perception still allowed him to sense a deep-seated malice.

He frowned slightly -

When did I ever offend this old man?

Nestor's words made Ye, who was originally an invisible man, instantly exposed to everyone's eyes. If he couldn't explain the reason, he would definitely be disliked by the pro-Achilles faction.

Is it because I didn't speak up for Achilles?

No, it shouldn't be that simple, there should be something deeper.

Thinking of Nestor's identity and past experiences, Ye seemed to understand something in his heart.

This wise man, who had been committed to getting Achilles to return to the Greek army, was dissatisfied when he saw that he was the only one who did not speak for Achilles. Perhaps it was not only because he felt disgusted with Achilles himself, but also because of his dislike for him.

Because he was introduced by Telephus, the descendant of Hercules, and Hercules killed his entire family when he was young, so was he implicated by Telephus?

Ye even suspected that when the Greek coalition attacked Telephus' country, even if this old man did not instigate it, he must have been happy to see it happen.

As the enemy of Hercules, how could Nestor not know where his enemy's country was even if other people didn't know?

But he said nothing until Telephus was beaten to the capital and almost killed. If Achilles and Telephus had not sympathized with each other and revealed their identities to each other, it would have been a misunderstanding.

Then Telephus might really have been destroyed.

How could this old man not recognize whose son Telephus was? I'm afraid he didn't have the idea of taking advantage of the situation and killing the descendant of Hercules.

Another sinister old bitch.

Troy is now launching a massive offensive, and its top heroes are far more powerful than Greece's. Apart from recalling Achilles, there is basically no other solution, and he can't come up with a solution.

Not only can he embarrass himself, but he can also put pressure on Agamemnon, tell him the necessity of Achilles, and force Agamemnon to invite Achilles back in advance.

Kill two birds with one stone! Awesome.

But Ye certainly couldn't let the old guy's plan succeed.

Achilles was his intended new Trojan ally, so how could he possibly watch you invite him back?

Previously, because of the issue of Briseis, the separatist war that had lasted for ten years directly jumped to the stage where Achilles and Agamemnon turned against each other. Greece, which had lost Achilles, could no longer fight a tug-of-war, and as the besieging party, it was even beaten back at its doorstep.

And now, because of Diomedes' serious injury, Troy seized the opportunity to beat the downed dog and forced Greece into a desperate situation ahead of time.

If Ye remembered correctly, it was after Greece was pushed too hard by Troy that Athena stepped down and gave Diomedes her protection.

Diomedes' ruthless life began! If Achilles also returned early at this time...

Chapter 52: Fiery heroes, a bloody storm caused by armor is about to come? !

During the time when Ye was lost in thought, the outside world was actually just a brief moment.

Everyone was waiting for Ye's reply.

Agamemnon also looked towards Ye at this time. If he had said that because of the previous betrayal by the other party, coupled with the fact that the other party came riding on a sacred deer, Agamemnon's face looked as uncomfortable as if he had eaten shit.

So now he has such a good impression of Ye that he expects the other party to say something different.

As long as Ye didn't support him to apologize to Achilles, Agamemnon was ready to support him no matter what Ye said.

then--

Under the gaze of countless heroes.

As the biggest traitor in Greece, Ye didn't want to be so ostentatious after the previous intrusion.

But when it came time to perform, he was not at all weak.

He first said calmly: “I have no problem with Achilles.

Even my own talents and abilities are somewhat similar to his. I have long been fascinated by that hero.

But I have never met Lord Achilles, so I cannot make any comments.

You decide..."

Night first removed himself from the hostile impression of Achilles and from the eyes of many heroes.

He said all this, and the other heroes nodded in understanding.

Speaking of Ye, he has talents similar to Achilles.

Odysseus and the others immediately thought of the immortal body of steel and the skill of the meteor spear displayed day and night.

Because they were too busy before, they never had the chance to ask each other what was going on.

In short, the night itself is very mysterious in their eyes.

They had already suspected whether he had any connection with Achilles, but the other party had just denied it. This suddenly became another mystery in the minds of Odysseus and others.

Now was not the time to think about that kind of thing. They looked at Ye, but unexpectedly Ye changed the subject and continued speaking -

"But I do have some shallow thoughts about the predicament our army is facing now."

Is there really a way? Everyone was stunned.

Anyway, they couldn't figure out how to deal with the current predicament.

Seeing that the heroes were all perking up and listening attentively, Ye said: “Since everyone is so afraid of Hector’s power, then we should reduce the chances of confronting him head-on.

Everything started because of the King of Sparta and the Prince of Troy.

Naturally, it should end with them.

On the front battlefield, we lack top-notch combat leadership and it is difficult to protect our soldiers from casualties under the enemy's spears.

Then let’s duel!”

"...Duel?!"

Many heroes spoke up at the same time, all with surprised looks on their faces.

Then the heroes began to whisper.

Nestor frowned and suddenly cursed: "Asshole! Do you want everyone to die? Griffith!

No one except Achilles could defeat that man in a head-on duel.

The man is good at single combat!"

The other heroes also agreed with this and were even a little afraid to duel with Hector.

After all, a duel is not just about deciding the winner, people may still die.
