Chapter 26 The Beloved Goddess Really Wants

Whether Odysseus wanted to or not, he could not resist the decision made by Pallas Athena.

When Odysseus confronted Loyin with his spear, Loyin suddenly asked Odysseus.

"Odysseus, do you remember Palamedes who was murdered by you?"

Palamedes was one of the princes of the Greek coalition, but he was not killed by the Trojans on the battlefield, but was killed by Odysseus's conspiracy.

Hearing the name of Palamedes, Odysseus frowned and said.

"How could I forget Palamedes? He was the only prince in the Greek coalition who was smarter and more eloquent than me, so I falsely accused him of colluding with the Trojans and killed him with the help of the gods."

"Odysseus! When you killed Palamedes, Nemesis, the goddess of retribution, one of the three incarnations of the goddess of night Nyx, saw it all and decided to punish you. Even if you were killed by me in a duel, you wouldn't have any complaints, right!"

"I just hope you can bring my body back to my hometown and give it to my family."

"Okay!"

Hearing Luo Yin's answer, Odysseus first showed a surprised expression, and then said with a smile.

"Neoptolemus! Do you want to hear some life experience from an elder? Among the princes of the Greek coalition, Palamedes is the smartest and most eloquent prince, and Achilles is the most powerful prince. Why is the wise man favored by Pallas Athena Odysseus, who is clumsier than Palamedes, and why is the warrior favored by Pallas Athena Diomedes, who is weaker than Achilles?"

Odysseus dared to say such words in front of the goddess-

Luo Yin glanced at Pallas Athena who kept smiling, and knew in his heart that Odysseus had already prepared to be killed by him.

"Odysseus! The goddess of wisdom Athena did not favor Palamedes because Palamedes was too smart, so smart that he no longer needed Athena's help. You became the wise man favored by Athena because when Odysseus used the Trojan Horse to capture Troy, everyone would praise the greatness of the goddess of wisdom Athena, who could make all the residents of Troy stupid. Achilles did not become the favorite of the goddess of war Pallas because Achilles was too powerful, so powerful that he could defeat all enemies without the help of gods. Diomedes became the favorite of the goddess of war Pallas. After Diomedes stabbed Ares, no one thought that Diomedes was more powerful than the god of war Ares. Everyone would boast that the goddess of war Pallas was far more powerful than the god of war Ares."

Odysseus nodded and said.

"Pallas Athena doesn't need the smartest and most powerful hero who no longer needs the help of gods. The goddess needs a hero who is neither smart nor powerful, who completely relies on the help of gods and can let her sing praises of wisdom and boast of military strength."

"What is your purpose in telling me these words?"

"I want to tell you that even if you kill me, you can't become the favorite of Pallas Athena. Because you are too smart and too powerful, you don't need the help of gods."

"I just said that I want to become the favorite of the goddess-you actually took it seriously?"

Odysseus actually took his joke seriously. Luo Yin said jokingly while waving the divine spear to attack Odysseus.

"Odysseus! If I were a human living in this world, I would really want to replace you and become the favorite of Pallas Athena. But I am just a passer-by in this world. Even if the goddess really wants to favor me, I am not interested in becoming the most devout believer of the goddess."

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Facing the fierce attack of Loyin, Odysseus could only resist and retreat.

Although Pallas Athena had given Odysseus the power to rival Loyin, this sudden extra power could not be directly converted into strength.

It was like putting a car engine on a bicycle. Not only could the bicycle not catch up with the car, but it would also cause the car to crash and people to die because of the runaway speed.

Seeing Odysseus getting more and more embarrassed under Loyin's attack, Alcinous said with disappointment.

"Odysseus, the great hero known as the wise man, turned out to be so weak..."

Hearing her father's words, Princess Nausicaa said innocently and puzzled.

"Father! Isn't Odysseus a wise man because he is not good at fighting? If he is good at fighting, he should be a powerful hero on the battlefield!"

Even a ten-year-old child knows that it is very stupid to expect a wise man to have powerful military force.

On the battlefield of Troy, Achilles was able to crush the 100,000 troops of Troy City and its allies alone.

In the original destiny, Odysseus could not even defeat more than a hundred suitors. Pallas Athena could only use her divine power to protect Odysseus to prevent her too weak beloved from being killed by the enemy's weapons.

The difference in force between the great hero and the wise hero on the battlefield is more than a thousand times, and Odysseus' force is so weak.

Luo Yin fought with Odysseus for a few rounds and saw through Odysseus's weakness.

Although Odysseus's strength can match his own, his reaction speed and fighting skills are not much better than ordinary people.

"Odysseus! Although our communication just now has changed my impression of you, I still want to kill you."

After sentencing Odysseus to death, Luo Yin suddenly stabbed the divine spear into Odysseus's heart at a faster speed.

With a puff!

Odysseus had no time to react and was pierced through the body by the spear of the divine spear.

Odysseus fell to the ground as a corpse. Pallas Athena immediately came to Luo Yin and looked at Odysseus's body without emotion.

"Although Odysseus is dead, his father Laertes, mother Anticleia, wife Penelope and son Telemachus are still alive. Odysseus deliberately said those words to win your favor just now, hoping that you would let his family go. What do you think?"

"I am not interested in eradicating Odysseus' family."

For Luo Yin, as long as he completes the system task, he will leave this world.

Even if Odysseus' son wants to seek revenge on him when he grows up, he will have left this world by then.

Moreover, Odysseus could only lead eight ships to participate in the Trojan War ten years ago, while Achilles could lead fifty ships to participate in the Trojan War.

After the Trojan War, most of Odysseus's four hundred warriors died in the battle, leaving only fifty people to return to his hometown with Odysseus.

It can be seen that the Kingdom of Intace ruled by Odysseus not only has a national strength gap of more than five times that of the Kingdom of Luo Yin, but also a huge gap in the combat power of the soldiers.

As long as Odysseus' son is not crazy, he will rationally choose to give up revenge.

Moreover -

With 108 suitors eyeing Odysseus' family, even if Luo Yin did not take action, Odysseus' father and son would not be able to escape death.

Once Odysseus died, the ruthless goddess could not continue to protect Odysseus' family.
