"Look, Memnon, that's Great Ajax, a very powerful hero of the Greek Coalition. He's killing our warriors. Let's go and kill him."
"As long as we kill him, the Greeks will lose a powerful ally."
There was a hint of excitement in Pei Zi Yun's words. Big and Small Ajax and Diomedes were heroes on par with Hector. As long as he killed any one of them, even without Antirocos, he would be able to reach the tenth level of his Hero Bloodline.
Furthermore, Athena's care for Great Ajax was not as great as Odysseus's. In history, Great Ajax and Odysseus fought over the inheritance of Achilles. In the end, Great Ajax wanted to kill all the Greeks. However, he was bewitched by Athena and committed the shameful act of killing a flock of sheep. He had no choice but to commit suicide.
It was relatively easier for Pei Zi Yun to kill Great Ajax, and it would not attract the ire of the gods.
"Alright, let's kill him together," Memnon said happily.
He did not care if these heroes were powerful or not. As long as he could fight them, Memnon's blood would boil, and his heart would be filled with the desire to fight.
Instantly, Memnon lifted his spear and charged towards Big Ajax who was still fighting fiercely in the distance. Before he even got close to Big Ajax, he had already thrown his spear at it.
Swoosh. The spear turned into a green lightning, and with a whistling sound, it cut through the sky and reached Great Ajax in an instant.
"Bang." Great Ajax placed the shield in front of his chest to block the spear that was thrown at him. The spear penetrated the layers of defense of the shield, and the tip of the spear continued to pierce towards Great Ajax's body.
Great Ajax was a veteran of hundreds of battles. A flash of surprise flashed in his heart, but he did not panic. He quickly dodged and nimbly dodged the spear.
He looked into the distance and saw the King of Ethiopia, Memnon. Although Great Ajax had never seen Memnon before, from the impact of the spear, he knew that this person must be a difficult opponent.
"Damn it, Hector is dead, and now an even more terrifying hero has come. Is the ally of Troy not enough to kill him?"
At the same time, Memnon picked up another spear from the ground and rushed towards Great Ajax. Great Ajax pulled out the spear from his shield, roared, and rushed towards Memnon.
The distance between the two of them quickly shortened. When Memnon was about two meters away from Big Ajax, the long spear in his hand was already aimed straight at Big Ajax's chest.
Clang!
Great Ajax lightly parried with his spear, deflecting Memnon's incoming spear. Then, Great Ajax continued to stab forward with his spear.
"Bang."
Memnon raised the shield in his hand to block Great Ajax's spear that was coming at him from a tricky angle. The tip of the spear had just pierced through the shield when it lost its strength and could no longer move forward.
Memnon did not let go of the opportunity. He hurriedly retracted the spear that had missed its target and thrust it towards Great Ajax once again.
"Bang."
Similarly, Great Ajax used the shield in his hand to block Memnon's spear. However, there was a hole in the shield. When the spear collided with the shield, it slid along the shield and stabbed towards Great Ajax through the hole.
Great Ajax quickly dodged to the side and avoided the unexpected tip of the spear. He snorted coldly and spun his shield, causing the spear to spin along with it, causing Memnon's spear to fall out of his hand.
The spear in Great Ajax's hand was also thrown out by Memnon using the same method. Both the spear and shield in their hands were discarded at the same time.
"Clang."
Both of them pulled out their long swords from their waists at almost the same time. They looked at each other and saw the strong desire to fight in each other's eyes.
"Kill."
"Kill."
Both of them shouted again and charged towards each other with their long swords.
Big Ajax was the first to stab the longsword in his hand at Men Nong. Men Nong did not show any signs of weakness. He lifted the longsword in his hand and deflected Big Ajax's attack. Big Ajax could no longer pose any threat to Men Nong. Meanwhile, the longsword in his hand flashed with a cold light and slashed horizontally at Big Ajax.
"Clang."
Great Ajax retracted his long sword and raised it in front of his chest to block Memnon's slash.
Memnon moved his feet and the long sword turned in an arc and slashed towards Great Ajax's shoulder.
Great Ajax did not dare to underestimate the rapid slash of the sword. It dodged to the right and stabbed at Men Nong's face. Men Nong's sword had already been thrust out, so he did not have time to defend himself. He dodged to the right and barely dodged the sword.
Great Ajax took a step forward and slashed his long sword at Memnon's neck.
"Clang."
Another crisp sound of collision was heard. The battle was getting more and more intense. Only the two of them who were in the battle knew the danger clearly. A little carelessness could lead to death under the sword of the other. However, they could feel that Memnon was gradually gaining the upper hand.
"Up until now, I'm very clear."
"Achilles can be said to be the number one hero. Even Hercules only has a slight upper hand."
"Great and Great Ajax and Diomedes are actually the second tier. Their true strength is above Hector. If they were to fight one-on-one, without the help of the gods, the possibility of Hector dying would be higher."
"So if there was no script, even if Achilles did not come, Great and Great Ajax and Diomedes would have a chance to break through Troy."
"But because of the script, under the command of fate and the gods, many of Troy's allies died on the battlefield one by one."
Pei Zi Yun had been quietly watching the battle between the two of them. Men Nong was calm and steady, but he had a resolute personality. Initially, he did not want to interfere in the battle. However, at this moment, Achilles had already rushed over while shouting something. He knew that he could not delay any longer. Otherwise, if Achilles rushed over, he would not have any chance to kill Great Ajax.
Pei Zi Yun quickly took out his bow, took out an arrow from his quiver and nocked the arrow on the bowstring. Taking advantage of the battle between Great Ajax and Memnon, Pei Zi Yun continuously shot out three consecutive arrows while Memnon and Big Ajax was being defeated.
The speed of the consecutive arrows was extremely fast. It was almost like they were shot at the fierce battle with the force of thunder.
"Dang."
Big Ajax felt threatened. It used its longsword to deflect one of the arrows. However, it was powerless to defend against the next two arrows that came its way.
"Pu, pu!"
The two arrows hit Great Ajax's shoulder and right leg. Great Ajax cried out in pain and fell to the ground.
"Despicable Paris!" Ajax the Great roared.
Memnon saw that Great Ajax was injured by Pei Zi Yun's arrows. His eyebrows furrowed for a moment before relaxing. He did not go forward to kill Great Ajax, but in his heart, he had some opinions about Paris.
"Paris looks like a straightforward man, but at the crucial moment, he still can't get away from scheming."
Memnon did not want to kill Great Ajax at this moment, but Pei Zi Yun needed strength to level up. How could he miss such a good opportunity? He did not care about Memnon's thoughts. He immediately raised his long spear and rushed towards Great Ajax who was lying on the ground. The long spear in his hand turned into a bolt of lightning and pierced towards Great Ajax's chest. Great Ajax used the last bit of his strength and used the long sword in his hand to block the incoming spear.
"Hmph."
Pei Zi Yun snorted coldly. The long spear in his hand shook and knocked away the long sword that blocked his long spear. Once again, he used all his strength to stab towards Great Ajax's chest.
"Pu."
The tip of the long spear pierced deep into Great Ajax's heart. Pei Zi Yun did not hesitate and pulled out the spear. Blood gushed out from the wound like a fountain.
Great Ajax's body trembled and immediately died.
"Paris, how dare you!" Achilles shouted. He knew that Great Ajax's life was in danger. He threw the long spear in his hand. The long spear pierced through the sky and attacked Pei Zi Yun.
However, Pei Zi Yun lightly dodged and avoided the powerful spear.
He desperately needed to level up. Not to mention Great Ajax, if the time was right, he did not want to let go of the power of Little Ajax.
"I made the right bet. Now that the Battle of Troy is nearing its end, not only me, but many heroes in the Greek camp have actually lost their value."
"Some people who are heavily favored by the gods will even receive support."
"But for those who are not deeply favored and can die or not, it's all up to fate."
"If I had used this earlier, even if I wanted to use this method to kill Great Ajax, I would still be interfered with. But now, I have succeeded."
"Ah, be it the Greeks or the Trojans, it's time for a curtain call."
Pei Zi Yun looked at Achilles who was rushing towards him and laughed coldly in his heart. However, he did not say anything. He just stood there quietly, as if he was not afraid of Achilles' approach.
When Achilles saw the corpse, he was immediately enraged. He rushed over and saw that Pei Zi Yun had disregarded his warning and killed Ajax. His eyes were filled with regret and hatred.
"Paris, I regret letting you go. You shot arrows and killed the righteous and brave heroes of the Greeks many times."
"Now, you have killed Great Ajax. You have to die."
"But since you have returned Patroclus's body, I still have my promise. When you die, I will give you a proper burial."
"Achilles, then I thank you for your kindness. But your opponent now is not me." As he said this, Pei Zi Yun took a step back.
"That's right." Not far away, Memnon picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at Achilles.
Bam.
The stone hit Achilles' armor and bounced off. Achilles turned his head to look at Memnon, the anger in his heart spilling out.
After Hector's suicide, Achilles' prestige among the Greeks was like the sun in the sky. Even the commander had to avoid him. Now, someone dared to throw a stone at him. This was a humiliation to him.
"You … Very well, I will let you know the consequences of provoking me." Achilles pointed his finger at Memnon and said angrily. His chest was heaving up and down. It was obvious that he was completely enraged by Memnon.
"Paris, I will let you go for now. I will settle the score with you later," Achilles said. In his eyes, Paris was just a guy who shot arrows at him. He could deal with him at any time. And the feeling of a hero made him feel that Memnon was terrifying.
"Hector is dead, and Troy has a new strong hero?"
"What a pity, all of you have to die!" Achilles shouted, full of confidence. He jumped off the chariot, picked up a spear from the ground and threw it at Memnon.
Pei Zi Yun shook his head and laughed. He did not care about Achilles' threat at all. Wait a minute, it was still unknown who would kill who.
