Mount Ida, Asia Minor
The sky gradually darkened. Darkness engulfed the land and the mountains. There were dense forests and clear springs, as well as delicious wild grapes.
It was a shallow stream. The water was very shallow, only reaching one's knees. This was a good place for cows and sheep to drink water. But now, a pale-skinned youth was lying in the river. Not even half of his body could be covered. He had already drowned.
The youth looked very young and handsome. He had black hair and black eyes. Looking closely, there were calluses on his fingers and scars on the inside of his arms. This was the price he had to pay for using a bow and arrow.
A plum blossom quickly appeared and quickly enlarged. It became a transparent information interface with a faint sense of light.
"Occupy Paris's body in one minute. Countdown begins."
The translucent figure standing at the side did not dare to delay. He reached out to touch the corpse.
"Boom!"
There was a loud noise. Everything in Mount Ida disappeared. What appeared next was an ocean. The surface was gloomy and frightening. The waves were turbulent and the sky was dark. The wind was blowing away the dark clouds. From time to time, lightning flashed across the night sky, illuminating the turbulent sea.
With the help of the lightning, one could see a ship on the surface of the sea. Upon closer inspection, it was more like a floating fortress than a ship. This fortress looked like a small palace. This small palace was actually only a few feet wide. There were a few bare stone pillars floating on the surface of the sea. A translucent figure stood on the steps and looked down.
"This is Paris's spiritual world?"
"Is it that powerful?"
"No, no, Paris is the descendant of Zeus and the Ocean Goddess. This is his inherited divinity!"
"However, this is already the sixth generation. Even with the blood of the River God in between, how can it still be so powerful?"
"Zeus and the Ocean Goddess Pleiades, Iacion, Dardanos, Eriktonius, Telos, Eros, Laomedon, Priam, Hector, Paris." The translucent figure was Pei Zi Yun. He muttered, "Could it be that Paris was a key figure in the Battle of Troy? That's why he's special?"
Just as he was thinking about this, a bolt of lightning fell. Pei Zi Yun saw a ship smashed into pieces on the sea. The man's expression was one of despair and the arm that was reaching towards the sky. Everything was then swallowed up by darkness.
"Is this the intimidation carried by the Goddess of Ocean?" Pei Zi Yun laughed involuntarily. Seeing that his threat had no effect, he heard a loud boom as a bolt of lightning shot through the clouds.
As he stared at the dark clouds, Pei Zi Yun closed his eyes. In the next moment, a bolt of lightning struck down. The entire ocean seemed to have been split apart by the blinding light of the lightning as it landed heavily on the small palace hall.
Boom! One of the pillars exploded, but at the same time, insignificant tiny lightning bolts slowly spun in the air.
"Come, Paris's power and destiny." The palace continued sailing. Although the ocean looked vast and boundless, Pei Zi Yun knew that there was a limit to it. In fact, it was extremely limited.
The dark clouds seemed to be infuriated, and the sound of thunder resounded through the entire night sky and ocean. A bolt of lightning struck with an aura that could destroy heaven and earth.
Boom! The lightning struck the small hall. The power of the lightning could not be avoided, at least not now. Another piece of stone fell into the water.
The small hall shook violently, but quickly calmed down. Pei Zi Yun looked at the sky coldly as the lightning continued to strike down on it. Rocks continued to fall, but it seemed like it could do nothing to the small hall.
After a while, the lightning slowly weakened. Pei Zi Yun shouted, "Come, Paris, fight me. You can't beat me with just your instincts."
As soon as he finished speaking, the dark clouds started to gather. In the next moment, the dark clouds started to collapse, and a young man appeared. He raised his bow with both hands and shot an arrow at Pei Zi Yun.
Pei Zi Yun raised his shield, and the arrow hit the shield, causing sparks to fly. He then retreated slowly towards the stairs, as if he wanted to use the stone pillars to defend himself.
The young man continued to shoot arrows as he followed Pei Zi Yun deeper into the palace.
"We're here!" Pei Zi Yun's figure flashed as he stepped into the palace hall. The young man instinctively rushed in, but felt that something was wrong and wanted to retreat.
"Too late." Pei Zi Yun did not know when a long halberd had appeared in his hands. He raised it up high and swung it down. A crescent moon appeared at the tip of the halberd, carrying with it the power of wind and thunder.
"Cut of Wind and Thunder!"
As the halberd slashed down, the young man instinctively raised his bow in front of his chest and tried to dodge. However, all of this was futile against Pei Zi Yun's martial arts.
"Pu!" A line of blood appeared on the young man's chest, and a faint sound of wind and thunder could be heard. The young man then broke into two pieces, and spat out a thick mist of blood.
"Ah ah —" Half of the young man's body did not immediately disappear, as if there was a light in it, "Wind and Thunder, are you a descendant of Zeus?"
Pei Zi Yun did not speak, as the young man's entire body crumbled into countless pieces.
Countless pieces of the broken pieces were about to swim out of the palace hall when a bright light appeared, trapping all the broken pieces within a circle of light.
Pei Zi Yun slowly extended his hand into the circle of light. As soon as he touched a corner of the broken piece, countless pieces of broken pieces flowed into his arm, and memories flooded in.
Pei Zi Yun's complicated and complicated memories rushed into his mind, causing him to accept the ten years of life that the young man had experienced.
In the next moment, the young man in the stream awoke and stood up.
"Luckily, Paris's memories are still very simple. It's only about herding sheep." Pei Zi Yun moved his joints and found that there was nothing wrong with them. He relaxed and shouted, "System!"
A small Plum Blossom quickly appeared and enlarged, turning into a transparent information interface. It gave off a faint sense of light.
"Mission: Occupy Paris's body for 0.03 seconds."
"Only three seconds left." Pei Zi Yun quickly clicked on the mission.
"Mission complete. You have obtained the Priestess's senses." Following this, the plum blossom quickly disappeared.
At that moment, three gazes swept past him, looking around suspiciously, especially at the young man's body before slowly disappearing.
Pei Zi Yun's body stiffened. Just being looked at by these gazes, he immediately understood.
"These are the gazes of the three Goddesses of Fate. The three Goddesses of Fate are the daughters of Zeus and Goddess of Law Themis- Cross, Lachesis, and Atropos."
"This is the feeling of a Priestess?"
Pei Zi Yun could not help but sweat. It was said that Cross spun a mortal's thread of life, while Lachesis was responsible for determining the length of the thread of life. The oldest Atropos was responsible for cutting off the thread of life, and the length of the thread represented a person's lifespan.
"No matter what, I've survived the first tribulation." Pei Zi Yun deeply breathed in. In front of him was a forest, and a crescent moon hung in the sky. The cold moonlight shone down, and in the distance was the city of Troy.
Pei Zi Yun looked down at his body, and a strange energy flowed through him. His body was filled with power, and he could not help but smile in satisfaction.
The joy of being reborn filled his heart, and Pei Zi Yun muttered, "Looks like this is the mythological version of the Battle of Troy. This is a bit troublesome, but it's not that strange. In order to replenish the plum blossom, I must find something more valuable."
Pei Zi Yun smiled, not feeling too disappointed. He continued to search through Paris's memories, and he found that there were not many useful memories. He only knew that this body had been raised by a female bear, and a Shepherd had found him and brought him back to be raised.
According to the preliminary information he had, this Battle of Troy was the Greek mythological version of the Battle of Troy. It was more complicated and detailed than the real Battle of Troy in history.
On the surface, the Battle of Troy was a result of Poseidon and Apollo swearing to destroy Troy because the king owed them a debt. Zeus's wife Hera and Athena had the urge to destroy Troy because of the decision of the Shepherd, who was the owner of this body.
Paris eloping with Helen was the prelude to the Battle of Troy.
Actually, the real reason was that the gods were trying to expand their influence in human society, but they were also worried about the hidden dangers of having an endless number of heroes. In addition, the population of Troy was too large, and the burden was too heavy. They needed to clear a batch of them periodically. All these reasons caused the Battle of Troy to break out.
How was he going to survive and obtain the Golden Apple during the Battle of Troy? This was something he had to plan carefully.
"The Golden Apple should not exist in the real Troy. I should have thought of it long ago."
If the Battle of Troy was only in history, and there was no divine intervention, Pei Zi Yun would not be afraid at all. However, in the mythological version, it would not be so easy.
"However, at least I managed to sneak in."
Before he left, Pei Zi Yun was already very close to becoming a Daolord, and had a deeper understanding of the world. Any person or thing from the outside world who barged into the new world would be rejected by the new world.
The system had taken over the body of a native and had a legal identity in this world, which was very wise.
This was why Paris had drowned in a shallow stream. This was actually very ridiculous, not to mention the fact that the stream was not even up to his knees, and that Paris was the descendant of Zeus and the Ocean Goddess.
Furthermore, the Battle of Troy was coming soon. Paris was the trigger, and his identity was very sensitive. However, with the help of the system, it was still achieved.
"Of course, with the great power of the System, it only gave me one minute. But in the end, it's done." While he was deep in thought, the moonlight gradually disappeared from the Western Mountains, and the sky began to brighten.
A thin mist filled the air, and the crisp sounds of birds chirping could be heard. The morning dew soaked his hair, and a refreshing feeling that he had not felt for a long time seeped into his heart.
He moved closer to the stream and took a look. His black hair and black eyes were very much in line with his requirements. However, his facial features were deeper, and he was more handsome than before.
"This Paris looks a little different from before."
His appearance was still the same, but the fear that he had because of his identity as a Shepherd had disappeared. What replaced it was a sense of calmness.
There was one more important thing that needed to be confirmed, and that was the power level of this world. If his power was compared to the power of the gods, the difference in power would directly depend on the method he used to obtain the Golden Apple in this world.
