The flames in the valley gradually died down. Pei Zi Yun, who had just killed three heroes, sheathed his sword and picked up his spear. He then walked towards the valley.
The scene in the valley was tragic.
There were two to three hundred corpses of ordinary soldiers and decurions that had been burnt by the flames. They were still steaming, and the air was filled with an unpleasant smell.
Most of the soldiers and decurions had been choked to death by the thick black smoke. Their expressions were horrifying, and it was obvious that they had been tortured before they died.
There were also many decurions that had been killed by arrows. Even if they didn't die on the spot, they would fall to the ground and die under the corrosive effects of the thick black smoke.
There were also a few decurions that couldn't bear the pain of suffocating in the black smoke. They used their short swords to slit their throats and ended their lives.
The remaining four heroes were lying in the valley, barely breathing. They were slightly weaker than the three heroes that had rushed out. If they hadn't been in front of Pei Zi Yun, they would have had a chance to escape when the fire first started.
At this point, they were either choking on the smoke or being burned by the fire. Not a single one of them was left unscathed. When they saw Pei Zi Yun approaching, they slowly opened their eyes. Their eyes were filled with hatred. It was this Prince Paris who had caused them to suffer such a crushing defeat.
Two of the heroes who had suffered less severe injuries roared out in anger and charged towards Pei Zi Yun with their weapons.
"You think you can fight me with this kind of strength? Now, follow me to the domain of Hades! " Pei Zi Yun looked at his trembling figure and knew that he had no more fighting strength left. He was roaring and charging towards him because he had fallen into a trap.
He shook his head and stabbed the spear in his hand twice, killing the two heroes that had charged towards him. He then looked at the remaining two heroes and saw that they were both barely breathing.
One of them was the son of Diorcles, Creed. He said in a weak voice, "Paris, I beg you to let me go. I will give you a ransom. As long as you let me go, I will withdraw from this battle and not be your enemy."
Another hero opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but his injuries were too severe. In the end, he didn't say anything.
At this moment, Pei Zi Yun suddenly felt a chill. His full Priestess senses allowed him to feel the approach of God.
"It's Hermes. He's here, but he's hidden. What does he think?" As Pei Zi Yun thought about this, he walked up to the two heroes and said, "If this was in the past, I would choose to ask for a ransom and forgive you. But I have already sworn to Ares that I will avenge Queen Penthesilea. If you want to blame someone, blame Achilles for killing Penthesilea."
"However, don't worry. Even if we are enemies, I will give you an understanding funeral."
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Zi Yun raised his long spear and stabbed it twice, ending the lives of these two heroes.
Hermes had wanted to stop Pei Zi Yun, but after hearing his words, he hesitated and sighed. He did not stop Pei Zi Yun, and could only shake his head helplessly. With a flap of his wings, he disappeared into the horizon.
"As expected, using the excuse of avenging the humiliation of the God of War and avenging the Queen, things went much smoother." After killing seven heroes and sensing that Hermes was far away, Pei Zi Yun picked up his weapon and exited the valley once again. He followed the trail of Austin's escape.
Not long after, he saw Austin and Aeneas fighting fiercely in the distance.
Austin and Aeneas seemed to be about the same level of strength. At this moment, it was hard to tell who had the upper hand, and Aeneas was unable to take him down.
However, Aeneas did not need to capture Austin. He only needed to delay him until Pei Zi Yun arrived. That would be the moment when Austin would be captured.
Pei Zi Yun was about to rush over to help Aeneas take down Austin, but at this moment, he felt the power of Athena.
"Looks like I won't be able to kill Austin this time!" Pei Zi Yun thought to himself.
Athena had provided Austin with a lot of protection. Every time Austin was in danger, she would appear in time to help him get through it. This time was no exception.
Although Athena was here, Pei Zi Yun was not someone who would give up easily. He still wanted to try and take down Austin. He immediately shouted, "Aeneas, hold Austin back. I will come over immediately to help."
When Austin heard Pei Zi Yun's words, he was scared out of his wits and began to panic.
Aeneas was overjoyed. He knew that it was only a matter of time before he took down Austin. He immediately used all his strength to hold Austin back, not giving him a chance to escape.
Pei Zi Yun raised his spear and charged towards Austin. However, as he was running, he tripped over something and fell heavily onto the ground.
Athena, who was far away, nodded her head. She knew that she had temporarily stopped Paris from chasing Austin. She looked over and saw that Austin was panicking because of Pei Zi Yun's arrival. Under Aeneas's full force attack, he was already in a difficult situation.
Looking at the situation, Austin would lose to Aeneas even without Pei Zi Yun's help.
At that moment, the strap on Aeneas's armor suddenly snapped. This caught Aeneas off guard, and Odysseus took the opportunity to launch a few counterattacks.
With the belt broken, Aeneas's attacks were hampered. He found an opening to take off his armor, but Austin quickly jumped out of the battle and ran far away.
Not long after, he jumped onto a boat and escaped from Tenedos Island.
Aeneas stomped his foot in frustration, blaming himself for letting Odysseus escape.
At this time, Pei Zi Yun, who had fallen, walked over and comforted him, "Aeneas, don't blame yourself. This is fate, allowing Austin to escape."
Pei Zi Yun was actually more tactful with his words. He couldn't say that it was the gods' arrangement to allow Austin to escape. If he did, Athena would definitely hold a grudge against him.
"This was such a good opportunity, but Austin escaped. I don't know when I'll get another chance." Aeneas said dejectedly.
Pei Zi Yun smiled and said, "Don't worry. As long as Austin is still participating in this battle, we will definitely have a chance to kill him."
Aeneas nodded and didn't say anything more. However, the frustration on his face couldn't be dispelled no matter what.
As he watched the ship leave, Pei Zi Yun could feel the gazes of the gods turning away. Athena had also left after Austin had left Tennedos Island and ensured his safety.
Of course, the battle on Tenedos Island had ended, and the gods had lost interest in watching.
Pei Zi Yun sighed in relief when the gods' gazes shifted away. He didn't like being watched by the gods. After all, he had many secrets on him, and they might find out if he wasn't careful.
Even though he let Austin escape and was tripped by Athena, causing him to fall hard, Pei Zi Yun was still very happy. He was very satisfied with the result.
This time, he had killed seven heroes and gained a huge amount of bloodline power. This time, he should be able to reach the seventh or even the eighth level of his bloodline.
If Pei Zi Yun had killed the seven heroes in broad daylight, he would have been blacklisted by the gods and listed as a target to be eliminated.
But this time, he had used a trick, and the result was much better. At least the gods would think that he was cunning, but they wouldn't think that he had the strength to kill the seven heroes.
Looking at the script of the Battle of Troy, the strong heroes were all killed first, while the intelligent ones were allowed to live.
Whether it was Austin or Calchas.
So even if he could have killed them directly, Pei Zi Yun still had to use a trick.
"Everything went smoothly."
The reason why the Greek heroes were weakened was because Zeus needed the Greek and Troy powers to reach a balance. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had the chance to kill seven heroes in a row.
Pei Zi Yun looked at Aeneas beside him and said, "We won the final victory. Not only did we not suffer any losses, we even got a few warships. Take them back, I still have to go to the Amazon."
Aeneas nodded in agreement and said, "Paris, the reason why we won so easily is because of your strategy."
"Without your strategy, I don't know how much we would have to pay to kill these Greek heroes."
Pei Zi Yun laughed. If the fire hadn't weakened the heroes and divided them, it would have been impossible for him to defeat so many heroes. He might even have been surrounded and killed.
Aeneas was full of admiration, but he thought to himself, Paris's strength may not be comparable to Hector's, but he's still more suitable to be king.
Initially, Aeneas did not believe that the Greeks would fall for the trap. But when he saw with his own eyes how the arrogant Greeks were led into a trap by Paris, one step at a time, and then all of them were killed, the shock in his heart could be imagined.
This made Aeneas feel respect for the wisdom of Prince Paris of Troy.
"Now, let us give these Greeks a proper burial." Pei Zi Yun said.
Aeneas knew that Pei Zi Yun had a habit of burying the dead. This was a good story in Troy, and people always praised Prince Paris for his kindness and generosity. But at this time, he still didn't understand. "Why do we have to bury them? They are all our enemies. "
"But many of them are descendants of the gods, glorious heroes, noble princes. Even if they are our enemies, we still have to respect them." Pei Zi Yun said, "And they died on the battlefield, so they deserve more respect. Maybe one day, we will face the same fate."
As he said this, he pointed to a boat and said, "I will sacrifice this boat to them. They came on this boat, and they will also leave on this boat."
Aeneas heard this and didn't say anything more. He turned around and called for the decurions to clean up the battlefield. He only shouted, "Quick, quick, collect the bodies."
