Myth: The Spiritual Dominator

The next day.

Compared to the chaos a few days ago, order has been restored in the coalition camp.

Two unknown small countries led their armies to the site and set up camp not far from the main camp.

The size of the coalition forces increased visibly, but the battered morale took time to recover and even deteriorated over time.

Various rumors spread among the lower classes, and Agamemnon, the only person who could possibly take charge of the situation, was recovering from his injuries.

So when Achilles appeared in front of the camp again, this feeling of uneasiness was further amplified.

Fortunately, Ares did not let Achilles down this time. He first stood in the army and angrily denounced Achilles's despicableness and shamelessness, and had actually seduced the goddess of beauty into losing her mind by attacking her in the previous battle.

He then rejected Achilles' renewed provocation and asked to fight again tomorrow.

After all, he traveled back and forth to the sacred mountain in a short period of time, so mental fatigue was inevitable.

Achilles only thought about Ares' excuse and agreed.

It made no difference to him whether it was one day earlier or later. Since the other party asked for a delay, he would just postpone it. This way, when he won, Ares would have no reason to excuse himself.

"So, this is the place you chose for the fight? It's a picturesque place with beautiful scenery."

"I think you should have no regrets about losing the title of God of War in the place you chose."

There was a hint of smile in his voice as Achilles casually looked around the environment.

A fairly large valley, surrounded by mountains on three sides and with only one exit.

The river flows into the valley through the outlet, which looks like a suitable place to catch a turtle in a jar.

However, this only applies to mortal armies. As long as the only exit is blocked, thousands of troops will find it difficult to move forward.

But for the indestructible Achilles, all the obstacles in this world are as easy as walking on flat ground.

Unless there are other gods waiting for him here, but feeling the reaction of the breath of the Styx in his body, Achilles can be sure that Ares is the only god here.

"Heh, come on."

"To be honest, I thought you were going to call a few gods to ambush me. But now it seems that you also know what is shameful and what is a joke."

Pulling out the bronze sword he had seized earlier, Achilles pointed the sword forward.

Standing opposite him was Ares with a grim look on his face.

"...Arrogant and despicable mortal, you can only be arrogant for a while..."

Thinking about today's plan, Ares tried to swallow a breath.

It was right for me not to ask anyone else to come. The power of the Styx made this human extremely sensitive to the breath of gods.

If I really called for help, he might not be willing to come.

But now it’s different. He is the only one here, and with this kid’s arrogance, he will naturally not be afraid of a fight.

And as long as he comes, there will only be one result.

"…Die, bastard!"

Ares meant what he said sincerely.

And soon, after a few days, the battle between Achilles and Ares started again.

Sword and shield collide, a duel of strength and power.

A seemingly endless shaking sound came from the nameless valley, and the lives in the forest fled in all directions just to avoid the confrontation between the demigods and the gods.

This time there was no other interference, and the battle between Achilles and Ares lasted from morning to evening, but the two still could not determine the winner.

After all, it is impossible for a hero with an indestructible body to "fail", and Ares, who has made sufficient preparations, is even more confident of his victory.

Not only was his fighting spirit not dampened, but it increased, and his strength was further strengthened under the guidance of theocracy.

It was almost evening, perhaps after a day of fighting, the God of War was a little tired.

He was not careful and had a strand of his hair cut off by Achilles' sword.

Ares was furious about this, but no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't really hurt the hero even a little bit.

"Humph, what a tortoise shell."

After a feint, Ares retreated a distance.

He looked at Achilles coldly, and the latter glared back without hesitation.

After a day of fighting, Achilles finally saw hope of victory, and he couldn't help but feel happy.

But the next moment, he was angered by Ares' words.

"It is getting late today, so let's stop fighting now. Tomorrow, I will come here and defeat you at this time and place."

Without any sense of shame, Ares immediately turned around and left.

It was only then that Achilles realized that the other side had only suffered a small loss, but was actually about to abandon the fight and flee.

"I was wondering why you chose such a place to challenge me. It turns out you did it so you could run without any burden. I thought you were ambushing me and wanted to catch me off guard!"

At this moment, Achilles could only lament why his teacher had not arrived yet. If he had an indestructible magic weapon, how could he not win?

But even so, Achilles still sensed his surroundings again.

The divinity is silent within a radius of a hundred miles, so there should be no gods lying in ambush.

As for the artifact... Achilles had actually never seen a divine artifact, and the power of the Styx had nothing to do with the artifact, so he didn't think much about it for a moment.

So he took a step forward and chased after Ares.

If you have the guts, just run all the way back to the sacred mountain, and I will chase you all the way. By then, the impact caused will probably be even greater than if I defeated you.

Thinking of this, Achilles couldn't help but speed up a bit, and in the blink of an eye, the two arrived at the entrance of the valley.

One chasing and one fleeing, one in front and one behind. As soon as Ares crossed the valley, Achilles followed closely behind.

However, at this moment, a ray of golden light turned from virtual to real and rose from the ground which was originally normal.

It must be said that the golden net that successfully caught the adultery in the original mythical trajectory was indeed extraordinary.

Ares and Aphrodite on the sacred mountain had never found any trace of her, and neither had Achilles now.

In just a moment, the young hero fell into the net, and no matter how he moved, he could hardly break out.

“Hahahahaha…it’s done!”

Ares stopped immediately and laughed out loud, his voice shaking the fields.

He looked at the captives caught in the net and felt that his efforts today were not in vain.

Aren’t you a good fighter? You just rely on the human environment.

Once we get to the top of the sacred mountain, I’ll see how you can fight me!

“…Hahahaha, mortal, you—hmm?”

Just as he was about to laugh at him, Ares turned around and looked into the distance.

In that direction, a strange aura of a demigod just flashed by.

"…Forget it, it's more important to go back first."

The ambush was finally successful, and Ares didn't want anything to go wrong.

So he looked at the angry hero in the net and prepared to leave.

In a little while... in a little while, I will invite all the gods of the sacred mountain.

When the time comes, I will kill you in public to restore my lost reputation.

······

Hundreds of miles away, in a cave halfway up a mountain.

A figure who was obviously much taller than an ordinary person was hurriedly putting down the things in his hands and gazing at the scene in the distance.

Before, he relied on some means to prevent his aura from leaking out.

But seeing his student being captured, Chiron couldn't help but feel a little agitated for a moment.

Not long ago, after receiving Achilles' letter, the Centaur Sage had a bad feeling.

The prophecy indicated that Achilles was supposed to die in battle.

No one can be sure which war this war refers to, or whether it is simply the god who is in charge of war.

Prophecy is always vague, but Achilles's direct defiance of the gods was still too bold.

Even Chiron did not expect that the other party would become so arrogant just shortly after leaving Silvermoon City.

Maybe he shouldn't have come to Silvermoon City. If he hadn't come here, he would have been able to adapt to life in the human world earlier and wouldn't have been so self-righteous...

For a moment, Chiron felt a little regretful.

Perhaps it was because he had too much that Achilles had come to this point today.

No matter how hard he tried, it was still a little too late, and now he had been captured by the gods of Olympus.

Regardless of Achilles' blasphemous act or the hostility of the Olympian gods towards Silvermoon City, I am afraid they will not let him go easily.

"Alas... it's fine if you make trouble in the human world, but why do you have to make trouble on the sacred mountain?"

"Others can't do anything to you, do you really think the God King can't do anything to you?"

Chiron looked worried. He shouldn't have been worried about Achilles' safety.

After all, he knew very well that his student's adaptation to the power of the Styx was incredibly perfect, as if he was destined to receive the baptism of Styx.

Ordinary gods are simply unable to do anything about the power of the Styx, which is connected to the origin of the underworld. Only a very few beings can really hurt him, but Zeus is one of them.

In any case, even Hades is nominally a member of the Divine Court.

Without even trying, Chiron didn't think Achilles could withstand the supreme power of the God-King.

"I'm afraid there's no way I can do it with my own strength."

"Mount Olympus... it's not a place where you can come and go as you please."

Taking a deep breath, Chiron couldn't just sit there and watch his student suffer, but he didn't have the ability to save Achilles.

After all, although he lived a long time, he was not a true God.

If you want to save people in Shenshan, you can only rely on the help of others.

The first thing he thought of was Hecate and Artemis.

These two goddesses were undoubtedly the most likely to help, but Chiron thought for a moment and decided to drag another god into the water as well.

These two goddesses have no connection with Olympus and don't know the situation on the sacred mountain.

If you want to rescue Achilles, it is better to use wisdom than force.

When it comes to wisdom and understanding of the sacred mountain, it can only be Her Majesty Athena.

"It just so happens that this child originally intended to stand on the side of Athens, and the new king of Athens was once a priest of the goddess."

"Let me go and ask her for mercy. As long as the goddess is willing to help, I think she will definitely not turn a blind eye."
