"Stranger, who are you?" the bald Kratos said in a deep voice. He had just killed a monster, and the two knives in his hands were stained with blood.
The blood flowed along the mysterious patterns on the knives and dripped from the tips of the knives to the ground, leaving a line of bright red blood on the road he had walked on.
At this moment, he noticed the stranger in front of him. He looked soft and harmless, but a one-eyed giant fell in front of him, indicating that he was extraordinary.
Pei Ziyun narrowed his eyes and carefully looked at the man in front of him. He had just observed him. Now that he looked closer, he found that this man was tall and full of power. His image matched the rumors.
"I am Prince Paris of Troy," Pei Ziyun replied.
"Prince of Troy? Never heard of it, "Kratos said coldly.
It was hard to say when Kratos was from. It was unusual not to have heard of Troy. However, he deduced from Pei Ziyun's words that this was a prince of a kingdom. He said loudly, "I am Kratos, the God of War."
"Kratos, the God of War? Is there such a weak god? " Pei Ziyun was startled. Suddenly, he laughed until he was out of breath. His voice was loud and clear. "Besides, on Mount Olympus, I have only heard that the God of War is Ares."
In fact, Pei Ziyun had long known that the man in front of him was the legendary Kratos, the God of War who had killed all the Greek gods. The reason why Pei Ziyun was laughing unscrupulously at this moment was because the priest's intuition clearly told him that by Greek standards, Kratos' strength at this time was far from reaching the level of a god. It could be said that he was very weak and completely unworthy of the title of God of War.
"Ares died a long time ago. Are you his remnant?" Kratos was furious. Pei Ziyun was undoubtedly looking down on him and provoking him. As a god, he could not tolerate such a thing happening.
Kratos held two bloody knives in his hands. Because of the blood, the knives were faintly glowing red. He roared and rushed toward Pei Ziyun.
The speed of his charge was extremely fast and powerful. When he was about five meters away from Pei Ziyun, he jumped up and slashed the knives down fiercely from the air.
"Bang." Pei Ziyun dodged the slash of the two knives. The two glowing red knives slashed the place where he had just stood, leaving two deep knife marks.
The road was originally hard stone. To be able to leave two deep knife marks on the stone showed that the strength was great.
Pei Zi Yun snorted coldly, his long sword stabbing towards the side of Kratos' body. Kratos turned his body, his right hand drawing an arc of light in the air.
"Ding."
With a crisp sound, the long saber in Kratos' right hand steadily blocked Pei Zi Yun's long sword.
Without waiting for Pei Ziyun's long sword to change, the long saber in Kratos' left hand slashed at Pei Ziyun's right hand with the rotation of his body.
Pei Zi Yun looked at the ferocious looking long blade coming towards him. He quickly retracted his right hand and dodged the spinning blade.
Two slashes didn't work. Kratos' eyes were cold and cruel.
He had been clear about love and hate since he was a child. He was decisive and brave. He was rough but also meticulous, cruel and gentle. After his wife and daughter were mistakenly killed by him, he continued to be cruel. After he obtained the Blade of Hell, he became sadistic and murderous. At this time, he was still a person who hadn't completely lost his conscience, but he was still extremely cruel.
Kratos forced back Pei Ziyun's long sword. Without any hesitation, he stomped on the ground and pounced toward Pei Ziyun. The long knives in his hands cut toward Pei Ziyun's neck from the left and right sides in the form of a cross.
Pei Ziyun quickly retreated before the two knives closed. For the first time, there was a hint of caution on his face.
Although Kratos' strength was worthy of the title of War God, his current strength was still slightly ahead of Pei Ziyun when he didn't activate his special skills.
Pei Ziyun immediately activated his two special skills without hesitation.
"Agility of the Wind."
"Cast Iron and Cast Copper."
After activating the two special skills, Pei Ziyun's skin faintly had a metallic luster, and his feet had a little more agility of the wind.
Pei Ziyun tapped his feet and dashed toward Kratos' side. Kratos was about to use the same trick again when Pei Ziyun tapped his feet and turned in the opposite direction at a faster speed.
Kratos' body couldn't stop quickly due to inertia, but he immediately adjusted his direction and slashed horizontally toward Pei Ziyun's body in the opposite direction.
Clang.
A cold light flashed. Pei Ziyun easily blocked the horizontal slash of the long knife with his long sword and continued to attack Kratos from another direction without slowing down.
Because Pei Ziyun was too fast, Kratos only had time to slash one more time as he rushed forward, but it was easily blocked by Pei Ziyun.
Pei Ziyun blocked the long knife, and the long sword stabbed toward Kratos like lightning.
The long knives in Kratos' hands had been slashed out, and he seemed to be unable to block the sword stabbing from the side. However, he reacted quickly and leaped forward quickly. When the long sword just pierced his skin, his body had already fallen to the ground a few meters away.
Kratos turned over and quickly stood up on the ground, but the long knife in his left hand had fallen to the ground.
At this time, Pei Ziyun flashed and stabbed again with his long sword, but Kratos blocked the long knife in his right hand in front of his chest.
"Ding."
Another crisp sound, but Pei Ziyun didn't give him another chance to respond. He rushed forward and slashed with his long sword with momentum.
Puff.
This time, Kratos couldn't block Pei Ziyun's long sword, and a deep wound appeared on his left arm.
Blood stained Kratos' left arm, but it didn't change his expression at all. Seizing the moment when Pei Ziyun swept past from the left, he turned sharply and slashed the long knife in his right hand at Pei Ziyun.
Clang. Pei Ziyun had expected it and blocked the long knife with his long sword.
"Roar!"
But Kratos roared angrily and pressed the long knife in his hand, blocking the long sword and slashing at Pei Ziyun's body again.
Clang.
Kratos' long knife slashed Pei Ziyun's shoulder. The armor flashed with cold light, and the blade cut a knife mark on Pei Ziyun's shoulder armor.
Pei Ziyun took advantage of this gap and rushed forward, dodging Kratos's left fist. He looked up at Kratos's expression and saw that he was cold and didn't care about the wound on his arm at all.
The knife mark on Pei Ziyun's shoulder armor cut open, but it didn't go deep into the flesh. It stopped bleeding after a little. Seeing that Kratos was about to pounce again, he quickly interrupted, "Wait, I have something to say."
Pei Ziyun's words made Kratos, who was about to pounce, pause. He was also puzzled. "Prince Paris? Your power isn't something a mortal can have. Who are you? "
Although Kratos was not as strong as he had imagined at this moment, his strength was completely beyond the average level. But Pei Ziyun not only blocked Kratos' attack, but also injured him. For Kratos, Pei Ziyun's strength was enough to make him stop and listen to what Pei Ziyun had to say.
"Kratos, answer my question first, and then I'll answer yours," Pei Ziyun said with a light smile.
According to Kratos's temper, he wouldn't easily talk nonsense with Pei Ziyun and would directly attack. But the fierce battle just now had made him wary of this Prince Paris.
Some of the monsters he had killed were strong, and some of them could even injure him. However, none of them gave him the feeling that Prince Paris was as dangerous as the one in front of him. He felt that the person in front of him was not a mortal, but a god.
If he had a choice, Kratos would still prefer to fight the monsters rather than fight the person in front of him for no reason, because he felt that the person in front of him could threaten his life.
Kratos nodded lightly and said in a cold voice, "Yes."
Pei Ziyun smiled in his heart when he heard his answer. From the battle just now, he had clearly felt the difference in level between him and Greece.
In the last Battle of Tifeng, what he felt was real, and everything was history.
But the feeling now was specious, and this was actually weakness. Kratos, who claimed to be a god, was only a little stronger than him, and hadn't even broken through the boundary of a real god.
And the weapon in the opponent's hand didn't break his sword. Although this sword was part of the weapon given by God, it wasn't too strong.
The godly armor also blocked the opponent's weapon.
All of this showed that he was weak.
Pei Ziyun thought about it and asked, "I'm very curious. Why did Ares conspire with the Three Sisters of Vengeance to overthrow the rule of Zeus? Let's not talk about the motive. After all, to dare to overthrow the ruler of Zeus, one must at least be close to the power of Zeus. Otherwise, what would happen even if he was overthrown?"
"It's nothing more than a wedding dress for someone else."
"Even if Ares had a problem with his brain, in fact, the act of overthrowing Zeus did happen once. But the gods involved, Hera was hung in mid-air as a warning to the public, Apollo and Poseidon were banished from heaven and sent down the mountain to do some work for mortals to sober up. Athena didn't even say that she would be punished."
"None of the gods would be directly physically hurt."
"Under such circumstances, why would Zeus want to kill Ares because of Ares's plot? Why would he allow a mortal like you to kill a god and allow you to ascend to the throne of the God of War?"
"People who dote on pets will have disputes with others and even fight because of their pets. But as long as one has a basic brain, who would kill others for their pets?"
This was indeed what Pei Zi Yun was curious about. From his point of view, the relationship between the gods and humans was the same as the relationship between humans and their pets. Pets could be loved and cared for. Fighting with other humans (gods) for their pets was understandable, just like the Battle of Troy.
But rational people wouldn't kill people for their pets, and the same went for gods.
It was an iron rule not to kill gods. All opposing gods would at most be imprisoned. Once the precedent of killing a god was set, the god system would face destruction. To the order of the gods, allowing mortals with godly blood to ascend to godhood had already shaken the foundation of the gods, not to mention killing a god.
No matter how much humans loved cats and dogs, if they found out that cats and dogs could evolve into intelligent animals, there would only be mass extinction.
If he wanted to ascend to godhood, he had to be like Hercules and ascend legally through the channel of fate.
What was the foundation and logic behind Kratos' ascension?
Vaguely, Pei Ziyun understood why the Phantom Lady hated Kratos but didn't care much about Kratos, who said that he would destroy the entire Mount Olympus. Also, he felt that this world was specious but actually wrong, and its level was relatively low.
"Even if it is a line of fate, it has no foundation and is as weak as a dream."
