Chapter 67 War breaks out! (Part 2)
Chapter 67: War breaks out! (Second) Second update!
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
The General Guards cleared a road for Murphy. When Athenian citizens on both sides saw that Murphy arrived, they dispersed to the left and right after seeing that it was Murphy.
When Murphy left the crowd, he found that the scene had been banished. A group of heavy Greek infantry surrounded him, looking at the sky from time to time. After seeing Murphy coming, they hurriedly separated a passage through which one person was passing. At this time, Murphy discovered that not only General Leodale was there, but also the high priest was in the middle. There was a corpse of some creature on the ground between them, and bright red blood was spreading on the ground.
"What's going on?"
Murphy walked in and asked, but then he took a breath and said in shock: "Slave Wind!"
That's right!
It's the slave wind.
Murphy would never admit his mistake, because when he had specially collected and studied the data on the only few tamed flying mounts in this world, the Slaves Legion, which was successfully trained by the Orc Empire, was one of them. It is said that the Orc Empire has a flying unit with a number of more than 300 people, and they are the most powerful air force in the world. They are all composed of the most powerful warriors of the Orc Dragon Roar clan, and are the top troops in the world!
They played a decisive and important role several times in the battle with the descendants of giants.
The dead slave slaughter is about five meters long, almost the same as the size of an adult male Siberian tiger on Earth.
Its forelimbs have bat-like wings, which extend to the waist and then connect to the hind limbs. Its tail is very long, like a tight whip, with a small inverted hook on its tail, which is extremely sharp, and shines with a hint of green light under the sunlight. According to legend, the Slave Wind has a little bloodline of the scorpion lion of the First Age, but it seems like this. The inverted hook on this tail is a very obvious mark with the bloodline of the scorpion lion.
But now this slaver is dead.
And it can't die anymore. Its sternum is almost completely broken, and it seems that it fell from a high altitude and fell like this.
Is it related to the previous thunder sound?
Thinking of this, Murphy couldn't help but turn his eyes to the high priest beside him.
"Governor General, you are here!" General Leodale looked solemn. He leaned over to Murphy to signal, and then asked the soldiers beside him to lift the broad wings of the Slaves.
Half Orc!
Only then did Murphy discover that under the cover of the wide wings of the Slave Wind, there was actually an orc's body!
"They actually came so fast!!!"
Seeing the orc's corpse, Murphy's brows immediately locked up, and an ominous premonition made him feel a little manic, but he quickly adjusted to suppress this useless anxiety.
"Dispose these two corpses. Leodale, call all the generals to my study to discuss matters." Murphy raised his hand to signal the Greek heavy infantrymen on the side to deal with these two corpses, and then said in a deep voice to the general Leodale beside him: "By the way, let the Chief Priest of the God of War go there together."
"Yes! Your Excellency the Governor." General Leodale responded with a solemn face.
As a Spartan general who has experienced countless wars and grew up in the barracks, he always told him that a war might have come with a nearly direct judgment. The solemn expression of the lord means that a war is probably very serious, the enemy is very powerful and difficult to deal with. Otherwise, he would never have asked himself to come with the chief priest of the war.
Instructing General Leodale, Murphy walked to the high priest and whispered: "Go to the temple."
“I have a lot to ask you.”
Through the high priest, Murphy finally figured out the whole story.
This has to start with a few months ago.
At that time, a group of mountain kings moved near Murphy's territory, namely those extremely large silver-backed gorillas. By communicating with the leader of these mountain kings, the silver-white gorillas, the high priest learned that a white dragon had been moved on the other side of the Karazan Mountains.
This is a big trouble!
At that time, Murphy asked the high priest if the white dragon attacked Athens, if she could use the gods of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, to defeat the white dragon.
The high priest replied at that time that if the white dragon flew over Athens, she would have a way to kill the white dragon.
This incident made the high priest feel attentive. After she returned, she began to arrange the possibility of dealing with the White Dragon in the future. Her plan was to create a huge star array covering the entire Athens. This star array was constructed based on Murphy's Athens city planning. In fact, the high priest of the city of Athens had his own ideas for a long time.
Since we want to form a star array, materials are required.
The three statues of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, based on the central square and based on the inverted triangle, are the center of the star array.
The marble sculptures scattered around Athens form the six corners of the star array.
At that time, Murphy just thought that this was the high priest who wanted to beautify the city and wanted to make more sculpture art that represented the Greek style, but he didn't care. He didn't expect that this was actually the configuration of a star array that defends against air.
Just like a mermaid uses shells with excellent texture to make fountains.
The matter that can accommodate elemental power in this world is not really that rare.
Although the magic conductivity does not have the same superiority as some rare items, many very ordinary things can actually be used as materials for releasing magic.
And marble is one of them.
During the construction plan of the temple in the next few months, the high priest set up a star array to guide the divine power of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, with the statue as the foundation.
The purpose is to deal with the possible white dragon, but the white dragon did not hit it, but today it killed a half-orc scout!
The thunder that Murphy just heard was the thunder power of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, summoned by the high priest after discovering the target.
After the Olympian gods escaped from the [lower divine power (endangered)], their power began to gradually recover. Just as the chief priest of the God of War could mobilize divine power from the bloodline, the high priest who gradually increased his power as the goddess of wisdom Athena gradually increased his strength also began to use the thunder power belonging to the goddess of wisdom Athena! That is, the power of the king of the gods of Olympian!
certainly.
The impact of lower divine power on the material world is still very weak.
However, the power of lightning is indeed extraordinary. Although this attack of thunder failed to kill the slave wind on the spot, the paralysis effect attached to thunder caused the slave wind to fall from a high altitude on the spot.
Falling from a height of hundreds or thousands of meters, even a white dragon cannot bear such harm, let alone a slave wind.
This is the reason why the high priest was sure to leave the white dragon. If it dared to fly over Athens, a thunder with all strength could not be killed, even if it could not kill it, it would not be able to maintain balance and fall from the sky due to paralysis. In this way, the white dragon that landed on the ground would be almost the same even if it did not die. The rest would be left to the Chief Priest of the God of War and the Spartan Conqueror.

Leader's Temple.
"Things are very troublesome." Murphy looked at the high priest in front of him and said with a serious face: "I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle soon!"
The orc's scout came so quickly.
It seems that their army is not too far from Athens. At the latest it is tomorrow, and they should reach the territory of Athens.
"Is it a half-orc?" The high priest gently held Murphy's hand, and a warm feeling was transmitted from her palm to Murphy, causing the depressed feeling on his body to dissipate a little.
"Yes." Murphy nodded, and then said, "There are many enemies, probably more than one hundred thousand."
"Although we may not really face so many people, it is indeed a fierce battle!"
The high priest gently held Murphy's hand and placed it on his chest, staring at his cheeks with gentle eyes as soft as water waves, and said softly: "I will always be by your side."
Murphy suddenly felt a sense of tenderness in his heart. He gently spread his arms and hugged the high priest's delicate body, slowly closing his eyes.
a long time.
After enjoying this faint warm emotion, the two began to discuss how to deal with the orc's next attack.
"How much help can the goddess give me?" Murphy asked, looking up at the temple of Athena, the goddess of wisdom.
He knew that the divine thought of the goddess of wisdom Athena was definitely in the leadership temple at this moment, and she could definitely hear what she said.
The high priest shook his head and said slowly: "The help the goddess gives you may be quite limited. Gods cannot directly interfere in the material world too much. Faced with such a large-scale war, no god can directly interfere."
"Otherwise, it will cause countermeasures to the rules and order of the world. It will likely lead to the fall of a god!"
Can't interfere with the material world?
Murphy frowned when he heard this. If it were not for the help of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, then things would be in trouble.
It is probably extremely difficult to face such a huge half-beast army by relying solely on Athens' own strength. Although the Athenian army is higher than the half-beast army in terms of quality, in terms of equipment and combat quality, the number of distances is probably...
Just as Murphy closed his eyes and pondered, a divine light suddenly flashed in the high priest's eyes.
"Although the goddess cannot directly interfere with reality, she can also give you great help." A golden light flowed in the high priest's eyes. She looked at Murphy and said slowly: "This is the goddess's realm. As long as the battlefield is within 50 kilometers near Athens City, the goddess can give blessings, making the will of the warriors invincible!"
Unlimited morale?
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Murphy's mouth. He nodded gently and quietly waited for the high priest to continue talking.
All you have to wait is to take the bait yourself!
