Simulating the Universe, Starting with Speedrunning Greece

Could it be that there were any people of noble status among those prisoners?

At this time a soldier spoke in panic. He seemed to vaguely hear those people shouting that they had found it, Lord Aetion and Priest Chryses were there.

Achilles: ...! Not good!

Could it be that what they attacked before was just an empty shell?

The most noble person in this city had actually been captured a long time ago?

Achilles did not know who Aetion was.

Before coming here, he had not asked who was the ruler of the city.

But the status of the priest behind is not low.

For a moment, Achilles thought of something...

The priest of the chief god Apollo was rescued.

Could it be that this rescue army was instructed and recruited by Apollo?

He gritted his teeth and hesitated for a moment whether to give chase...

"By the way, I seem to hear those soldiers calling the leading hero Hector!!" When a soldier spoke like this.

next moment,

Achilles immediately spoke decisively: "I will go and give chase myself for a while! I will be back soon! You continue to attack the city center!"

Whether the most distinguished person in Thebes was rescued or not,

Achilles decided to do both at once so that he wouldn't miss anything.

His chariot was pulled by a celestial horse that was much stronger than an ordinary carriage.

If the enemy has not gone far, he can catch up quickly if he acts alone.

Hector!!! It's really you!

When I heard that name,

Achilles's warlike will could no longer be suppressed.

Then without hesitation, Achilles boarded the chariot with great haste.

"Lord Achilles!!!" Amid the soldiers' shouts, Achilles walked away, leaving them with only a willful, handsome and cool back view.

"How to do?"

"...We can only obey the orders of Lord Achilles and continue to attack the city center!" The soldiers looked at each other, gritted their teeth and continued to fight.

Even if the coach is gone,

But there are only a few remaining defeated soldiers, and there is no need for Lord Achilles to take action personally, as they can handle it.

As for whether Master Achilles would be injured if he pursued the enemy,

The soldiers had never thought about this.

Master Achilles, who has an invulnerable body, great strength, and a powerful divine weapon,

How could I lose?

Even in the midst of a huge army, that demigod hero can come and go as he pleases!!

Not to mention that it was just a small team of a dozen people who didn't dare to fight.

And on the other side,

In the city of Thebes, on a remote and deserted path.

This was the empty street that was deliberately vacated when they were sweeping the city and gathering the remaining troops before nightfall.

I hope Achilles will follow me.

If everything you just did didn't work.

There will be no time left. Once Hector arrives, the fateful battle between the two men will be completely unavoidable.

Chapter 28 The Pegasus is neighing, Achilles: Are you ready for the price of fooling me?

Thebes, a small city,

However, there are two real strongest heroes of both forces, and one fake hero.

But they never met each other.

But when Achilles rode into the sky on a chariot pulled by fantasy horses.

For a time,

The neighing of Pegasus in the night sky,

Attracted the attention of countless people.

"…It's Achilles!" Hector and his soldiers were rushing towards the center of the city. When he saw the figure on the warhorse, he was shocked and his pupils contracted.

Has the other party discovered them?

however--

The next moment, in Hector's astonished eyes, Achilles didn't even look over here, but rushed in the other direction.

This made Hector feel nervous.

Is the war on the front already over? !

Achilles actually left.

He hastened his march.

And on the other side-

When I heard the neighing of the Pegasus in the sky,

The night with its back to the night sky,

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile that came from the heart.

Calm down again...

Have you taken the bait? Then continue with the original plan!!

I don't know if the enemy is coming for Aetion and Chryses.

Still coming for Hector!

On the way from Troy to Thebes, Ye had spent countless days and nights sparring with Hector, and when he talked about Achilles,

There seemed to be a strong desire to fight burning in Hector's eyes.

That sense of destiny, the mutual respect between heroes,

Ye believed that not only Hector had this feeling, but perhaps the demigod would also feel the same way.

The more I come into contact with this era, the more I come to understand the importance the Greeks placed on honor and heroic pride.

He felt this more and more.

Even the most common soldier, when talking about heroes and honor,

They will inevitably reveal their bellicosity and fanaticism.

What's more, the demigod who is as bright as a meteor and full of vigor and vitality - the great hero Achilles,

A hero among heroes who is better than anyone else, loved and admired by countless people.

Will the desire for honor and battle that one has to endure also be multiplied? !

If you don't desire this.

In order to prevent him from dying young on the battlefield as predicted, his parents dressed him up as a girl and hid him among the maids.

When he was discovered by Odysseus and invited to join the battle on the ship to Troy,

He could have refused on his own will.

It was the restless heart that could not wait to fight on the biggest stage in Greece.

Greece is the most dazzling and fleeting meteor.

Achilles, the hero that makes people sigh!

So, you are here...

As it got closer, I felt a terrifying sense of crisis and oppression approaching from behind.

But Ye didn't dare to look back or stop.

It’s not enough——!

More, run further!! If we fight here,

It is too easy to attract people's attention and also easy to focus on the battlefield on the other side.

The real Hector must not be discovered...

The more critical the situation, the stronger the mental strength and willpower become.

The brain fell into an incomparable calm.

Ye began to adjust his breathing and mobilize all the vitality in his body.

Squeeze, squeeze, and squeeze again...

then,

Whoosh! An arrow suddenly fell from the sky.

That was an arrow shot by Achilles.

It is also a declaration of war!

I see you...! Hector, the warrior holding the golden spear!

Yes, that magic gun, the same weapon that had killed countless of his companions in the Battle of Troy Island.

Same as what you see.

I'm already here, don't even think about running away like this!

Bang~! ! !

Although it was only a declaration of war issued by Achilles,

But it was also a declaration of war between the strongest heroes.

When arrows fell from the sky,

A terrifying gust of wind was stirred up, with a terrifying momentum that seemed to tear the atmosphere apart and blast a hole in the ground.

And that target was right at Ye's vest.

! ! ! ! !

——Can’t avoid it!

In an instant, consciousness told itself,

...Ye clenched the golden spear in his hand, and a hint of decisiveness and ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

With the overloaded heartbeat, he forcibly drained a third of his life force in an instant and channeled it into the original power of the divine spear Hector.

next moment,

The magic gun suddenly burst into a brilliant light.

Boom~! ! ! !

With a beautiful gun flower in his hand, Ye didn't even turn his head, and just relied on his feeling to smash the flying arrow!

"--Well done!" Achilles praised without reservation.

If you can't even do this kind of beautiful counterattack,
