Simulating the Universe, Starting with Speedrunning Greece

The heroes began to speak on Patroclus' behalf, asking Agamemnon to quickly complete the deal so that Patroclus and Achilles would willingly give up their equipment.

This is something that Achilles himself agreed to!!

That way they could fight for the armor with peace of mind without having to worry about being retaliated by the demigod afterwards.

And at this time——

Agamemnon, who was in the lead, had a face as red as liver, and it became even stinkier, so stinky that it was beyond words.

The hero Griffith had just ripped off a lot of wealth and soldiers from him a few days ago, and now a small figure like Patroclus can also come to extort money from him? !

He roared angrily: "You beastly bastard.

Who gave you the courage to bargain with your monarch?

Today I will tell you who is the king here——!! "

As he said this, he ordered his herald to take the soldiers to capture Patroclus.

If it was Achilles in person, he might still be afraid.

Just relying on Patroclus? Isn't this just a thoughtful act of sending equipment to me?

He was not sure he could snatch the armor from Achilles, but he was sure he could snatch it from Patroclus.

Nestor had just found him and said that he had a plan. Through Patroclus, he could make Achilles agree to have his armor connected externally - but he only wanted Patroclus to inherit the identity of 'Achilles' and lead the army alone.

Then Patroclus came directly to his door and forced him like this?

Not to mention you, Patroclus, even Achilles wouldn't dare to act so presumptuously here.

This is too much!

When Agamemnon's herald Tartibius led his soldiers to surround Patroclus.

Ajax the Great subconsciously raised his shield to protect him.

It is worth mentioning that when the hero Palamedes was framed, Ajax the Great was the only man who did not stand by him, but after his death, he was willing to collect his body despite the obstruction of others.

In his heart, he still didn't want to believe that his fellow hero could be a traitor.

Ajax the Great had a strong sense of justice and kindness.

He was willing to protect even a villain like Patroclus.

The situation was about to become heated and a fight was about to break out.

The heroes watching had different expressions on their faces, but none of them took any action. They just watched as a bystander, seemingly with their own thoughts in mind.

At this time, Ye, who had hoped that the Greek side would be as chaotic as possible, did not take the opportunity to stir up trouble, but took the initiative to stand up and stand between the two sides.

He wanted chaos in the Greek camp, but he didn't want it to be in this way.

And given his current position, it is impossible for him to stay out of it completely.

Night will let the plan go on its original track.

He shouted at both sides to put down their weapons, and in the middle he plucked the strings of the guitar, which suddenly sent out a terrifying shock wave.

The shockwaves of the attack hit the soldiers like a gentle breeze, and they were unharmed, but their weapons were knocked down one after another.

This scene made many heroes open their eyes wide in surprise and were quite shocked.

If it was on the battlefield—

Just now, the fate of the enemy who lost his weapon can be imagined.

This is a powerful weapon.

"You...! Hero Griffith, are you going to disobey the order of my king?" The herald, whose weapon had also been shot down, spoke angrily.

The herald said as he tried to pick up his weapon and continue.

Agamemnon, in contrast to his previous anger, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and shouted: "--Tartibius, stop it!"

Chapter 65: The heroes were confused. Why wasn’t it me who came up with the idea (and paid the most money)?

—Tartibius?

This name left an impression on me.

In mythology, as one of the two heralds beside Agamemnon, he can be said to be his left and right hand.

He was accompanied by another herald named Eurybates.

Under Agamemnon's orders, he cut off Achilles's resources and directly robbed Achilles' home. When Achilles and Agamemnon were arguing in front of the palace, he looted Achilles' camp.

Not only did he take away the beautiful Briseis, but he also stole a large amount of treasure, which should have belonged to Achilles.

This is... Tartibioth?

Ye recalled the last banquet. The herald standing next to Agamemnon was clearly not this face.

So the one last time should have been Eurybates.

As Agamemnon's right-hand men, the two heralds who guarded him almost all the time were his favorites, like his father Zhang Rang and his mother Zhao Zhong. But now they can only appear in turns.

Of course—Agamemnon was not in the habit of being a filial son, but he was very fond of the two great heralds and always kept them by his side.

Now it has become a permanent residence for one person.

This immediately made Ye think about something.

In the myth, it was these two people who captured Briseis.

This situation couldn't be related to Brieses.

Since Agamemnon had taken Briseis away, he naturally had to send his confidants to guard her to prevent Achilles from taking her back.

Ye had reason to suspect that another herald, Eurybates, might be guarding Briseis at this time.

These thoughts flashed through my mind in just a moment.

outside world--

When Agamemnon stopped his herald.

At this moment, the King of Kings no longer had the rage on his face, but instead looked relieved.

Just now when the herald was about to attack Ye.

A terrifying intuition struck Agamemnon's heart, and it felt as if he was locked down from the sky.

If something happened at night, the next moment something might come through space and hit him directly on the top of his head.

That is the hostility from the moon.

Agamemnon shuddered and came to his senses completely.

Who could it be?! After thinking about Ye's identity, the King of Kings immediately thought of the goddess Artemis who made him so uncomfortable.

grass--!

He wanted to curse in his heart.

Is this petty-minded goddess determined to make things difficult for me?

Agamemnon didn't dare to gamble - if he was in danger, would the goddess Athena come out to protect him?

At this moment, he finally realized the frustration that Achilles felt when his attack was blocked in the past.

I don't know what Agamemnon is up to, but Night finds an opportunity to start telling Achilles' demands.

Patroclus' request was also the request of the hero Achilles. If his conditions were not met, as the original owner of the armor, Achilles had the right to take back his property and not lend it out.

Now it was the turn of the heroes who were just watching the show to get anxious.

They all urged Agamemnon to stop.

And condemned his immoral behavior.

Among them, Odysseus and Diomedes are the most outstanding.

They were the ones who were most eager and believed they had the greatest chance of getting the armor, and now they didn't even care about offending Agamemnon, and the two of them led many heroes to attack.

Agamemnon suppressed his anger and finally after a long stalemate.

Agamemnon finally compromised -

He said that he could agree to let you choose your own people, but he would definitely not give you any compensation.

Even if Achilles wanted to take back his armor,

He would rather kill Patroclus, take off his blood-stained armor and give it to Achilles.

Good job——!

For a moment, Ye was moved by Agamemnon's violent temper and really wanted to watch him kill Patroclus...

If Agamemnon really did this and sent the bloody armor back like a murderer, Achilles would definitely be pushed to the opposite side.

But it was obvious that this was just Agamemnon's stubbornness. He didn't have the courage to fight the demigod to a real fight. If he wanted to fight, he would have done it last time.

In other words, after becoming the king of kings and enjoying supreme power, the hero Agamemnon was no longer as courageous as he was when he was young and adventurous in the wild and fled.

Agamemnon thought it was not worth it to risk everything he had in exchange for Achilles for a momentary dispute.

But Patroclus also refused to do so.

In the end, it was Odysseus who came up with a solution. He stepped forward and asked all the heroes to raise money together to pay Patroclus.

Just think of it as a ticket for the chance to snatch the armor.

Odysseus comforted himself in this way.

However, little did he know that his cleverness at that moment was digging a huge hole for his future self.

When Night turned his butcher knife against Odysseus—

All the heroes think back to today's scene and feel that they have been fooled and played by Odysseus completely. They spent money to help Odysseus complete his "revenge plan"!

Let’s not talk about that later—

And when Patroclus finally got what he wanted.

When the heroes looked over one by one, they expected that the person Patroclus would nominate would be themselves.

Especially those who paid the most, just like gamblers, they thought they paid the most, and if Patroclus remembered his kindness, he should choose them.

however--

When Patroclus pronounced the name 'Palamedes'.

The heroes were stunned.

Even though he was the civilian hero who contributed the most money, and basically spent all his family savings just to buy himself a set of true god-like equipment - Diomedes' expression froze.

Even though Odysseus thought he had come up with this plan that perfectly solved the problems of both sides and should be thanked by Patroclus and become the heir, he was still dumbfounded.

As for the other heroes, they all opened their eyes wide with expressions of disbelief.

Even if they are not the chosen ones, they can accept it.

But that person should not have been like a transparent person in the fundraising just now, not even as enthusiastic as other heroes to donate money while communicating and building relationships with Patroclus, hoping to increase his chances of getting the armor.

——Paramedes!

During the whole process, the handsome young man Palamedes had been sticking to his identity as a musician, rather than a prince or a hero. He was not at all concerned about obtaining Achilles' armor and making meritorious contributions on the battlefield.

And he is very self-aware that he is not cut out for it.

He is good at persuading people to join the gang (hardcore people who offend others to join the gang), but his fighting ability is just average. He is not suitable for that overly awesome armor.

At this time, Palamedes, who was chosen, was stunned.

Palamedes didn't react at first, until he noticed that all the heroes were suddenly looking at him with fierce eyes.

Only then did I realize that the name I just read out looked so familiar.

"I?!"

Looking at Palamedes' confused and shocked expression, he seemed to be overwhelmed by the unexpected surprise.
