"Hmph, all of you shall die!" Pei Zi Yun waved his spear and instantly pierced through the heart of one of the Greeks. Blood sprayed out from the back of the Greek soldier.
Before the Greek soldier could react, Pei Zi Yun had already turned into a gust of wind and pounced towards him. The tip of his spear pierced through the Greek soldier's body, causing him to stumble and fall.
"Ah ah ah!" One of the Greek centurions saw that his brother had been killed and roared in anger. He brought three other soldiers with him and charged towards Pei Zi Yun.
Pei Zi Yun laughed coldly, "Idiots!"
Pei Zi Yun did not even bother to dodge. Instead, he stuck his spear out. Every time he did so, blood would splatter out and a life would be lost. Wherever the spear passed, the shield would be pierced through and the spear would be broken!
Even if an attack landed on his body, it would cause sparks to fly.
Even the long gash on Hercules' shoulder, which had been inflicted by him, was rapidly healing, and in the space of a moment, it had become a scar.
"This is the body of a god." Although Pei Zi Yun was injured, his injuries were not serious. He continued to chase after the Greek soldier. A spear swept past him and the centurion raised his spear to block it. With a 'peng' sound, his opponent's spear broke into two. The end of the spear then landed on his body, causing his internal organs to rupture as he fell.
"Ah ah ah!" The Greeks finally could not hold on any longer. Initially, when they saw Pei Zi Yun's godly might, killing Diomedes and defeating Hercules, the Greeks were already on the verge of collapsing. What happened just now was just the final radiance of the setting sun. Now that they had completely collapsed, they turned around and fled. Even the cries of the heroes and princes could not stop them.
In the eyes of the Greeks, Pei Zi Yun, who was able to defeat Hercules, was not someone they could defeat. Immediately, they fled to their ships and quickly raised the sails. One by one, the warships rushed to leave the port, leaving behind their friends and relatives who were slightly slower behind.
"Don't abandon me, I'm your brother." Someone shouted out in despair, while others knelt on the ground and begged bitterly, "Spare my life, Prince of Troy, son of Priam. We've met in Athens before, we've drunk wine together. Spare me, my family will give you a large amount of gold as ransom!"
Pei Zi Yun furrowed his brows and replied, "I remember you. Indeed, you are a noble of Athens. We had a toast together and had a good chat. But don't mention ransom to me now, let alone the name of Troy and Priam. Before Troy falls, I am willing to forgive anyone."
"But now, my father, Priam, has been beheaded. Almost none of the Trojan men can escape death. Even the babies in their mothers' arms fell to their deaths."
"Then why should I pity the Greeks?" As he spoke, Pei Zi Yun's long spear pierced forward, killing the Athenian nobleman. He then rushed into the crowd of Greeks who had yet to escape.
No matter how these slower Greeks resisted, cried, or begged for mercy, they were all slaughtered by Pei Zi Yun. Not a single one was spared.
When everything had calmed down, a strong smell of blood assaulted his nostrils. Hundreds of Greek corpses were strewn all over the place. Weapons and armors were strewn all over the place, as well as broken limbs and limbs.
"This is not enough." Facing the Greeks who had just committed a massacre in Troy, Pei Zi Yun would not be merciful. If possible, he planned to kill every single one of them.
Pei Zi Yun stood on the shore and watched as the ships left the port in a panic, heading towards the depths of the sea. He did not immediately chase after them, but instead looked at the ships carefully, searching for his target.
All the Greeks who had boarded the ships to escape looked at the shore and Pei Zi Yun getting further and further away. They all heaved a sigh of relief. To them, no matter how strong Prince Paris was, even if he had a warship, he would not be able to catch up to him.
"Found him." But in the next moment, the Greeks were dumbfounded. They saw Pei Zi Yun take a step onto the surface of the water. Just as some of them were about to gloat over his misfortune, they saw him running on the surface of the water as if he was running on land.
Paris ran with all his might towards a warship in the distance. This scene filled the Greek soldiers with fear. How could a mortal run on the surface of the sea?
This completely defied common sense. This was a miracle.
"Oh, my god, how did this powerful Trojan do it? Has he become a god?"
"Are we fighting against a god? Please forgive us, God. "
"Let's hurry up and escape, or we will be buried in the vast sea." Some of the Greek soldiers on the ships knelt down and prayed, giving up all resistance. They thought that they were facing a god and had completely lost their will to fight. However, some of them tried their best to speed up their ships and escape. Most of the ships increased their speed once again, hoping to escape from the pursuit.
Pei Zi Yun stared at one of the ships. This ship was Agamemnon's warship. Queen Herbo and Princess Polyxena of Troy were on board. He wanted to rescue the Queen and Princess Polyxena from their clutches.
Along the way, the warships that met Pei Zi Yun all turned around, trying to avoid him as much as possible.
Pei Zi Yun saw that Agamemnon's warship had increased its speed. How could he allow Agamemnon to escape with his people? A strong gust of wind blew, and the speed of the warship was twice as fast as before.
When the sailors on Agamemnon's warship saw Pei Zi Yun running on the surface of the water, they were so frightened that their bodies trembled. Some of them even fell to the deck.
"This is a god, how can we resist a god?"
Pei Zi Yun's speed on the surface of the water made him seem like a god to these people. He was undefeatable. Agamemnon's face was pale. Although he raised his spear, he did not have the will to resist.
A hundred meters, fifty meters, thirty meters. Just as Pei Zi Yun was about to attack the warship, a golden light flashed in front of him. A valiant yet charming deity appeared.
"It's Athena!" When the Greeks on the warship saw the deity appear, they all fell to their knees and prayed for the protection of the deity.
"Paris, stop. Although fate has made you a new god, you are not one yet. Fate has also allowed the Greeks to return with their slaves. You have already killed so many people, you cannot jeopardize this." Athena said, her voice as loud as thunder.
After listening to Athena's warning, Pei Zi Yun knew that he couldn't use force. If he did, he would undoubtedly offend Athena. Furthermore, he couldn't guarantee that Athena wouldn't retaliate. He wasn't her opponent now.
Hence, Pei Zi Yun stopped his actions and fell into deep thought.
Athena and the Greeks on the warship waited silently for Pei Zi Yun's decision. Every minute and second was torture for the Greeks, because they did not know what their fate would be.
After a while, Pei Zi Yun said, "As you said, venerable Athena, it is true that I cannot continue to pursue the Greeks, in order to defy fate. However, Queen Herbo and Princess Polyxena must stay."
When Pei Zi Yun said that he wanted Queen Herbo and Princess Polyxena to stay, his tone was resolute. Athena did not try to haggle, but nodded without hesitation and said, "That is reasonable."
Athena was here to ensure that a portion of the Greeks could return home safely. She did not care about the loss of a few people.
She looked at Agamemnon, who immediately understood. "Terrible Paris," he said, "it is fate that has pitted us against each other. It was not my intention."
"I will immediately hand over Queen Herbo and Princess Polyxena, and I will compensate you."
"In order to repay your kindness, once I return to Mackenzie, I swear to God that my family will build a temple for you."
Hearing this, both Pei Zi Yun and Athena frowned.
Agamemnon did not notice this. He ordered his soldiers to prepare a small boat and placed Queen Herbo and Princess Polyxena on it.
The boat was small, but it was more than enough to carry the Queen and Princess, as well as a large amount of gold. Due to its weight, the boat swayed on the sea, as if it could capsize at any time. However, Pei Zi Yun used his hands to hold on to the boat, preventing it from swaying further.
Queen Herbo watched as the two of them escaped the control of the Greeks. She was happy and sad at the same time. Ever since the fall of Troy, she had been a captive and had suffered great humiliation.
Most horrifying of all, she heard the Greeks discussing the possibility of killing her beloved daughter Polyxena as a sacrifice when they left the coast. This was to pray for God's protection and help them return to Greece safely.
As a mother, her heart was about to burst, but there was nothing she could do about it.
At the most critical moment, her abandoned son, Paris, had returned and destroyed the Greeks. She even heard Athena admit that her son could join the ranks of immortals.
Herbo wept softly, tears rolling down her cheeks. Polyxena was strong enough to not cry, and continued to comfort her.
"You should go!" Paris said as he looked at the boat.
Agamemnon's boat did not dare to stay any longer. Hearing this, it sailed off into the depths of the sea. Pei Zi Yun had no intention of chasing after it. He fixed the boat and stood there quietly.
Seeing Agamemnon's boat leave, Athena sighed, "Poor Agamemnon, you are fleeing so quickly, yet you are heading towards the realm of Hades."
"Respectable Athena, the bright-eyed Goddess, fate is so unpredictable. How can a mortal be able to understand it all?" Pei Zi Yun bowed to Athena.
"You are right, Paris. Not to mention mortals, even gods are unable to understand fate. Only gods are immortal, and can withstand the trials of fate."
The blue-eyed Goddess said, "Paris, I have received orders from Zeus to tell you that you started with the Golden Apple, and will also end with the Golden Apple. If you want to ascend Mount Olympus, you have to take the Golden Apple Tree from Gaia."
Pei Zi Yun nodded, indicating that he understood. Although it was not easy to take the Golden Apple Tree from Gaia, his mission in the Greek world was to obtain the Golden Apple. No matter how difficult it was, he had to take the Golden Apple Tree.
Seeing Pei Zi Yun nod, Athena said, "Furthermore, Troy has been destroyed, and cannot be rebuilt. You have to choose a new location to build your city."
Pei Zi Yun had already expected to choose a new location, and could totally accept this condition. He bowed to Athena to show his respect and said, "Thank you for your prophecy."
As Athena finished speaking, she turned around and disappeared into thin air. Pei Zi Yun looked in the direction where Athena had disappeared, deep in thought.
After a while, Queen Herba interrupted Pei Zi Yun's thoughts, "Paris, should we go back to the city first?"
The waves on the sea were too strong. Although the boat was stabilized by Pei Zi Yun, the waves still hit the boat from time to time. The clothes of the Queen and Princess Polyxena were wet from the waves.
Pei Zi Yun heard the Queen's reminder and said, "Mother, you and Polyxena should hold on tight. I will send you back to the city now."
As he finished speaking, he pushed the boat back. Along the way, the waves hit the boat from time to time, hitting Pei Zi Yun's body. However, this did not affect him at all.
Under the full push of the boat, the Queen and Princess Polyxena soon reached the shore.
The shore was a mess. There were corpses everywhere, as well as tents. There were even many people – most of them were young girls and women carrying their children.
"Queen, Princess, Prince Paris."
Pei Zi Yun looked at the people on the shore. There were about a few hundred of them. Because he had attacked too quickly, the Greeks had only brought their friends, relatives, and important prisoners onto the boat. Those who could not get on the boat in time had been abandoned. Without Pei Zi Yun's help, these few hundred people would have been taken to Greece by the Greeks.
At this moment, they were looking at the sea in anticipation of Pei Zi Yun's return.
When they saw that Pei Zi Yun had rescued the Queen and Princess, they let out enthusiastic cheers and shouts.
"Prince Paris, you have saved us from the fire and water."
"Oh God, Prince Paris is the messenger you sent? His radiance is dazzling. "
"Prince Paris, thank you so much for saving us all."
Everyone expressed their gratitude towards Pei Zi Yun. They used all the best words in the world to praise Pei Zi Yun for what he had done.
Seeing this, Queen Herba was both sad and happy. She cried and said, "Priam, do you see this? Your son Paris has become a god, just like Hercules. "
"He will rebuild a stronger city."
When Athena spoke, she did not hide anything from them. Instead, she said it out loud in front of them. The news of Pei Zi Yun ascending to Godly Ascension was known to Queen Herba as well. Hence, she said it out loud in front of everyone to give them confidence.
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. They looked at the sky. If a mortal said this, he would definitely be severely punished. But after a while, there was no change. The sky was still blue. Everyone cheered.
"Herba has indeed been the Queen for decades. She calmed the hearts of the people." Pei Zi Yun smiled and said to everyone, "Let's go back to the city and bury the dead."
"As for the ships that have not left, as well as the supplies in the camp, believe me, no one will touch them. Just leave a few people to guard them."
In fact, most of the people around them were dead.
Everyone agreed. After all, many of their relatives had died in this war. Hundreds of women and children headed back to Troy.
