Bacchus in Greek mythology

Chapter 11 Blasphemy

Seeing that the other party recognized him, Achilles was not surprised at all, and stretched out his hand in the same friendly way, holding Ampoulos back.

Neither humans nor gods can see his appearance, but demigods can.It turned out that this was the drawback of Furukawa's belt, but it didn't matter, because he liked this demigod very much.

"I'm not a god. My name is Ampulos. I'm just an ordinary person. I came here with Dionysus. I just wanted to see Troy, but I couldn't see it."

Achilles smiled gently and explained to him: "The place has been surrounded by gods, and more and more gods are hovering above. They spread thick fog to hide themselves and Troy. Anyone can see , there will soon be a fierce battle."

Indeed, the unusual aura wafting in the air made some tremble with trepidation, while others were excited. God had already descended, and this ten-year catastrophe would soon come to an end.

Before Ampoulos could answer, Achilles asked again, "But why did you come here? If the gods came to choose a side to fight, then why are you here?"

Ampoulos blinked, and his voice was brisk, "If it was to accompany God of Dionysus at the beginning, it should be to meet you now. I have long admired your name, the great hero Achilles."

Achilles couldn't help laughing when he heard what Ampoulos said, "I'm not a great hero."

As he said, he opened his arms and showed himself to Ampoulos, "As you can see, I am just a down-and-out commander. Agamemnon despises me. I have not participated in the war for a long time, and I am still waiting for the war. It's over, go back to your hometown."

Ampulos laughed, looked at the sand on the ground and shook his head.

Achilles looked at him strangely, "What are you laughing at?"

Ampulos raised his head and raised his eyebrows: "I laugh at your hypocrisy."

Achilles was stunned. He was the backbone of the Greeks and the nightmare of the Trojans. Even his enemies only dared to praise him, and never dared to make mistakes. He was not angry when he heard someone blatantly criticize him for the first time. Ask patiently, "Why?"

Ampulos took two steps forward, looking at the gray sea.

"You were eager to fight, so you were insulted and didn't want to leave; you cared about your team, so you met me in this place where you can see Troy; you were afraid of being discovered, so you lied to me. Achilles ,Am i right?"

Achilles froze for a moment, then laughed loudly: "You look small, but you are very smart and brave, just like Odysseus."

Ampulos shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, no, I'm not as treacherous as him, I'm just a little clever."

Achilles smiled even more happily. He already disliked Odysseus, and the boy's words were right in his heart. Achilles liked the blue-eyed boy in front of him even more.

On a whim, Ampoulos followed Achilles along the coast for a long time, even approaching the territory of the Greeks. They chatted happily, and suddenly heard a booming sound.

The lightning fell rapidly, the sky turned black in an instant, the wind was strong, and women's screams and men's screams were mixed everywhere. Ampulos looked at the sky in shock, and Achilles reacted faster than him, and quickly pressed him to the ground. Under him, he was tightly protected.Ampoulos' face was pressed against the sand, and sharp sand cut his face, and he felt pain, but he couldn't care about it. Ampoulos' heart was pounding. Still saw it.

The thunderbolt, Zeus the father of gods.

The lightning came and went without a trace, leaving only the raging fire and the crying people.

Achilles looked up, frowned and looked at the coast not far away, and said in a low voice, "Zeus is angry."

Yes, Zeus was angry because Apollo and Poseidon did not obey his orders and intervened in this war, so he sent down thunder to warn them.However, the gods can protect themselves, and innocent people cry in despair in this natural disaster.

Ampulos eased his frightened mood and slowly got up.Achilles supported him, and was stunned for a moment when he saw the blood on his face, "You are bleeding."

With that said, Achilles reached out and wiped Ampoulos's face gently.Just as everyone treats Helen, Achilles also treats Ampulos tenderly. Beauty will always arouse people's countless sympathies, even if their hearts are more terrible than poisonous snakes.

Before Achilles took his hand back, a gust of wind blew by, and Ampoulos disappeared.He looked around in surprise, and looked up again, and found Ampoulos standing with a blond god.Ampulos was hugged tightly in the arms of the god, and his face was full of astonishment. The god glared at him: "Achilles! How dare you blaspheme me!"

Immediately, Achilles understood which god was in front of him, and he bowed his knees reverently, "I didn't, Dionysus. I was protecting him just now."

At this point, he also understood the relationship between the two.Instead of blaspheming "him", he blasphemed "I", which shows how important Ampoulos is in his heart.

Dio didn't trust him, and turned to look at the frightened boy. Ampoulos pointed eagerly at his face, "When the lightning fell just now, I was almost affected. It was Achilles who saved me. He saw My face is bleeding, that's why it's like this, it's not what you think."

Dio looked at Ampoulos, and then at Achilles who was calmly staring at him on the ground, and knew in his heart that he was wrong to blame him, but seeing Ampoulos so eager to defend him, the anger in his heart did not change at all. Calm down, but burn more vigorously.

With a cold snort, Achilles frowned, and swung down a wind blade. It must have been in great pain, because Ampoulos saw a large wound on his hand, and even bones were faintly visible.

Ampoulos was shocked, and pushed Dio reproachfully, "What are you doing!"

Dio ignored him and flew back to the city with him.

Dionysus expressed his displeasure at the place that he had to touch with great difficulty, but was so easily touched by that demigod.When he thought of Ampoulos pushing him and his disapproving expression, he became even angrier.

If he wasn't punished, how would he know what abominable things he had done? If he hadn't been truly selfless, Dio would have cut him to pieces on the spot, no matter whether he was the son of God or not.

It was the first time that Ampoulos had an opinion on Dionysus. If it was normal, he would be obedient, but Dio actually hurt the person who had just rescued him, and this person was about to go to the battlefield!

Ampoulos became more and more angry as he thought about it, and turned around to accuse him, "Everyone knows that Achilles will return to the Trojan battlefield soon, and this is the last stop of his life, yet you still hurt him! What's more, he didn't do anything, he just protected me, is it wrong to protect me?"

Dio narrowed his eyes dangerously. Usually he would not show his doubts about Ampoulos, but today he was so angry that he was dizzy.

"The last stop of life, no one knows about it except the gods, how do you know?"

Ampulos was stunned, not knowing how to answer.Dio took a few steps forward and approached him, "Ampoulos, my love, why do you know so many things about the gods? For example, Peloka Forest, such as the belt of the ancient river god."

Ampulos opened his eyes wide, not knowing what he was talking about.

Dio laughed and said, "I forgot to tell you that the belt of the ancient river god can only be worn by the descendants of the god, and it is useless to wear it except for the blood of the god. But you, Ampoulos, you and It fits so perfectly, you still have to tell me, are you just an ordinary person?"

Ampoulos broke out in nervous cold sweat frequently, stepped back step by step, and the person in front of him approached step by step.His beautiful eyes kept looking to the right because of nervousness, but he couldn't find a suitable answer.Helpless, he could only lower his head to avoid Dio's gaze.

Dio raised his chin abruptly, and Ampoulos frowned because of the pain. Subconsciously, Dio reduced the intensity, but he was still unwilling to let him go, and continued to ask: "Tell me, why?"

Ampoulos' breathing became slightly quicker, and he pushed Dio away again, his eyes darkened, "I am a descendant of the gods, so what? I have never searched for your past, why did you treat mine? I care so much about the past? I met you, fell in love with you, and was willing to be with you, isn’t that enough? My past has long since disappeared, and all that remains is the present and the future. If you must cling to the past, then I You should think about our relationship again, because I don't know if you love me or my background."

After finishing speaking, Ampoulos turned around and went back to the room. He was afraid that Dionysus would catch up with him and ask him, but luckily he didn't. Dio stood there in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

On the other side, the Greeks were defeated again, and even their patron gods were imprisoned in the thunder of Zeus.Achilles' best friend came to persuade him, but he insisted on the original request: Agamemnon must apologize in person before he can return to the battlefield.

King of kings, Agamemnon commands all the kings and princes, he will never humble himself easily, even if the ten-year war is about to end, he has invested all the fighting power and financial resources of his country, even if On the verge of failure, he still refused to admit his mistakes at the beginning, and did not intend to let go of his ridiculous so-called dignity.

Achilles' best friend, Patlock, is an only boy. The fluff on his face has not faded, and his youthful face is particularly conspicuous in the battlefield. Although he is immature and looks like a woman, no one will laugh at him. .Because of Patlock's noble status and his legendary friend-Achilles.What's even more strange is that he looks a bit like Ampulos.
