After Suffering So Much, We Swore Not to Give Up Until We Took Something Back!

With the support of some brothers and the early bribery of Antimachus by Paris, soon more people sided with Paris.

At this moment, he even demanded the immediate arrest and execution of Menelaus.

When rivals meet, their eyes blaze with anger!

Although it was Paris who put a green hat on the king of Sparta,

And not only did he elope with the aggrieved party's wife, but he also took away a large amount of treasure.

But even after committing such a heinous act, he still had the audacity to demand the death of others.

Seeing all this,

This handsome prince of Troy had a character that was not as gentle as the rumors suggested.

No—

In fact, the rumors about Paris being gentle and helpful were mostly praises from the shepherds.

This was largely due to Paris' presence, as his heroic strength kept bandits and wolves away.

The shepherds, unintentionally benefiting from his protection, praised him spontaneously...

Whether Paris had any genuine intent to protect others was highly questionable.

After all, he hadn't made any other significant achievements,

The only major event he caused, which shocked all of Greece, was stealing someone else's wife.

Such a person could also be called a hero.

The threshold for being a hero in Greece seemed surprisingly low—

Heroes didn't have to perform great deeds, it seemed that as long as they displayed considerable bravery and strength, they would be spontaneously hailed as heroes by many people, seeking their powerful protection.

Killing enemies on the battlefield became their glorious achievement.

From the perspective and standpoint of their own country, perhaps they truly were heroes.

But in terms of personal virtue, many of their behaviors were indeed unacceptable...

However, that had nothing to do with Night.

[Paris made grandiose and arrogant remarks at the negotiation meeting, without concealing his hostility and intent to kill, which made Odysseus and others tense up, and the atmosphere plummeted.

The Trojan prophet Helenus, pre-bribed by Paris, further encouraged them by claiming that the gods would grant Troy victory,

This became the final straw that broke the psychological balance of the Trojans.

Gaining significant confidence from this, the Trojans ultimately rejected the peace talks, but they did not comply with Paris' demand to capture and kill the two men, instead, they sent them back.

At the negotiation meeting, you witnessed the ugly side of 'heroes.'

In your eyes, these so-called heroes were more like robbers.

For an unjust war, countless Greeks and Trojans had to pay with their lives.

Having personally witnessed the brutality of this imminent ten-year-long hellish war, although you felt pity for the countless ordinary people who were about to step into the greatest meat grinder of ancient Troy,

But you could do nothing to change any of it.

Returning to the base camp, Odysseus and Menelaus, immediately vented their anger by exaggerating the threats and humiliation they faced during the negotiations at Troy to their companions.

The Greeks, upon hearing this, were furious, determined to severely punish these shameless Trojans.

They began organizing the army for a strong assault,

Under Hector's leadership, you rejoined the defense line.

In the blink of an eye, several more days passed in the simulated universe world,

During this time, Night experienced many battles, and while following Hector, his powerful mental strength allowed him to occasionally observe the latter's heroic combat style, unconsciously learning a few moves,

Even though it was just simple imitation, Night's combat ability grew significantly.

Combined with his powerful, almost intuitive mental strength,

Night, with only minor injuries, successfully followed Hector in repelling the enemy three times, successfully defending Troy.

After several consecutive strong assaults, both the soldiers and Hector were mentally and physically exhausted.

But they dared not relax their vigilance...

To prevent the unknown timing of the next attack, Hector, with the soldiers, maintained their spirits,

adopting a rotation system to guard the night...

Based on the information in his memory, Night knew that the previous assault was likely the last Greek attack for a while,

According to the original history,

The Greeks would find Troy too difficult to conquer and temporarily abandon this hard-to-crack fortress,

focusing instead on smaller surrounding cities...

Knowing that he couldn't delay any longer, Night approached Hector.

"You've done well these past few days, Night...

You already have the potential to become a strong warrior.

I noticed that you seem to be imitating my combat style,

But just watching with your eyes won't teach you much of the true skills,

After the war ends, if you survive, I can teach you how to truly wield your weapon effectively."

Facing his arrival, before Night could speak, Hector spoke first.

He looked at the young man with appreciative eyes...

Because of Night's calmness on the battlefield, his quick learning ability, and his rapid growth in combat over the past few days, Hector, who had noticed him unintentionally, developed a fondness for his talent.

Although Night wasn't yet at the level to become a hero, compared to most ordinary soldiers, his performance was already quite outstanding.

"Sorry, you noticed.

Hector, your combat style is too captivating,

Before I realized it, I had subconsciously started imitating your fighting,

Thank you very much for your kindness..."

"Overwhelmed with fear and honor,

It would be an immense joy and honor to have the prince himself instruct me in the future!"

Reacting swiftly to Hector's words, Night showed no panic upon being caught learning by imitation.

Instead, he smiled slightly.

It seemed that Hector had a favorable impression of him, which might make achieving his goals easier.

This was a good sign...!

"However, let's set aside the matter of learning martial arts for now. I have some very important information that I want you to review," Night said seriously.

Seeing Night's solemn attitude,

Hector immediately adopted a serious demeanor.

"What information?"

"It's about some intelligence related to the Greeks."

Night explained that out of curiosity, he had learned from many merchants from the other side of the ocean some stories about the heroes from Greece, thus gathering a bit of intelligence.

Initially unsure of its accuracy, but upon seeing Odysseus and others, and hearing their familiar names, he confirmed that the information might be true...

He then conveyed the details about the major leaders of the enemy forces to Hector, identifying which kings they were.

He particularly emphasized the strengths of each hero, noting that their cooperation left almost no weaknesses.

He also informed Hector that these 'brutal' kings, had come from far away, driven by a strong sense of vengeance, they had traveled great distances, bearing intense desires for revenge.

Previously, when they landed in Mysia, these Greeks mistook it for Troy and directly attacked the city, nearly killing King Telephus.

Ironically, this king was actually Greek himself and even the son of the great hero Heracles.

It was only when both sides temporarily ceased fighting and began to negotiate that they realized their mistake.

Moreover, within the Greek coalition, there were three princes related to this king.

Attacking without even confirming the enemy's identity shows the ferocity of these coalition forces and their hatred towards Troy.

Night:

"Compared to the city of Troy, which is protected by you, Lord Hector, I'm now worried that those Greeks, unable to capture Troy for a long time, might shift their focus to the surrounding cities..."

Hector was immediately alarmed: "What!"

And Night wasn't lying,

In the Trojan War, besides the famous story of Achilles' heel, the Greeks were notorious for their blunders early on, including attacking their allies by mistake.

If it weren't for the fact that the son of Heracles inherited his father's extraordinary strength, his kingdom might have already been destroyed.

The Greeks came from afar, enduring storms and tsunamis, even mistakenly attacking the wrong enemy and killing the sacred deer of Artemis.

If not for sacrificing Agamemnon's daughter to appease the goddess, they might never have reached the gates of Troy.

Having paid such a high price, the Greeks were determined not to return empty-handed.
