Chapter 93 Penthesilea and Memnon Arrive
After every battle between the Greek coalition forces and the Trojans, both sides would tacitly agree to a truce for a period of time and hold funerals for the fallen heroes and soldiers.
Luo Yin indulged in the beauty and tenderness of Thetis and Aphrodite for several days, and once again responded to Agamemnon's call and came to the battlefield.
Troy Plains.
After the coalition soldiers came to the west bank of the Scamandros River like a tide, the Trojan soldiers also came to the east bank of the Scamanders River under the leadership of the prince and hero.
What surprised Luo Yin was that the commanders leading the Trojans today were not Hector and Pandarus, but two strangers who appeared for the first time.
One of these two commanders is a heroine wearing armor, even her face is hidden by a helmet, holding a huge battle ax in her right hand, and the other is wearing golden divine armor and holding a spear in her hand, looking like Achilles The male hero who is a clone.
When the princes of the Greek coalition looked at the two new heroes of the enemy, the heroine holding a battle ax rode a beautiful white horse to the center of the battlefield and shouted with a loud voice that was not inferior to that of the men.
"Who among you is Achilles? I have brought twelve female warriors to aid the Trojan King and help him kill Achilles, the most powerful of the Greeks."
The heroine challenged Luo Yin by name, and the eyes of the princes of the coalition immediately focused on Luo Yin.
Luo Yin jumped off the chariot and walked to the center of the battlefield and said.
"Who provoked you, poor woman, to become so crazy that you dare to challenge me?"
"Are you Achilles?"
Seeing that Luo Yin was not wearing armor, and the only weapon on his body was the divine spear in his right hand, the heroine said with a smile.
"Legend has it that you are the son of the ocean goddess Thetis, and were given immortality by your goddess mother. Is this why you don't wear armor? Young Achilles, I am Penthesiele, the queen of the Amazons. Ya, this is not an opponent you can underestimate.”
"You are Penthesilea—"
Luo Yin couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise when he learned the name of this heroine.
"You are a contemporary of Hercules. You are at least sixty years old now. You should be too old to--"
Whoosh!
Before Luo Yin could finish speaking, Penthesilea threw a spear towards Luo Yin with her left hand.
There was a muffled bang!
After the spear hit Luo Yin's body and bounced to the ground, Penthesilea galloped towards Luo Yin and said.
"Now you should understand my power! Achilles, next I will use my battle ax to smash your invulnerable body."
In the blink of an eye, Penthesilea's fast horse rushed in front of Luo Yin.
When Penthesilea swung the battle ax and hit Luo Yin's head, Luo Yin raised his left hand and directly grabbed the ax blade with his free hand.
Seeing Penthesilea's eyes widening in shock, Luo Yin pulled hard with his left hand and pulled Penthesilea, who was holding the battle ax tightly in his right hand, off the horse.
Penthesilea fell to the ground in a panic. Before she could get up from the ground, Luo Yin struck her helmet with the divine spear in his right hand.
The next moment!
Penthesilea's helmet was split in half by the blade of the divine spear, revealing her true face that she had always hidden.
Luo Yin said with a faint smile when he saw Penthesilea's long brown hair hanging freely, her upright and delicate face as young and beautiful as a goddess, and her brows as heroic as a goddess of war.
"You are indeed not a human! The myths fabricated by humans say that you are the daughter of Ares, the god of war, but in real history, Ares is a native Greek god who is related to the tribe of Amazon female warriors who live on the coast of the Black Sea. It has nothing to do with it. You can always be young and beautiful because, like your sister Hippolyta, you are the incarnation of the goddess of hunting and war worshiped by the tribes in Thracia."
"Are you so fascinated by my beauty that you talk nonsense?"
Penthesilea got up from the ground, pointed her battle ax at Luo Yin and said.
"Achilles, I am not standing in front of you as a woman, but as a warrior to kill you. If you don't want to be killed by me, just use your spear blade to pierce my body!"
"I reject!"
Luo Yin refused without hesitation.
"If you want to die, you can challenge Ajax, who is more powerful than you. I don't want my spear blade to be stained with your blood."
Penthesilea's true form is only a tribal god at the level of a lower god. As the incarnation of the war goddess worshiped by the Amazon female warrior tribe, she does not even have the strength to defeat Ajax and Diomedes. Naturally, Luo Yin does not. Interest treats her as an enemy.
Seeing that Penthesilea was not taken seriously by Luo Yin at all, the male hero wearing golden armor and as arrogant as Achilles said with a smile.
"Beautiful Queen Penthesilea, I have told you long ago that the battlefield is not suitable for you. You should be a virtuous wife and bear children for your husband."
After teasing Penthesilea, the male hero turned to look at Luo Yin and said.
"Proud Achilles, now your good luck is over, because I am not an ordinary human or demigod. My mother is Eos, the goddess of the dawn, who is nobler and more powerful than your mother Thetis. In your Remember my name before you die, I am Memnon, King of Ethiopia.”
Hearing Memnon's words, Luo Yin's face immediately showed an angry and twisted expression.
"It's just a copy of Achilles made up by the people of Asia Minor more than three hundred years after the end of the mythical age. It dares to claim to be the son of the goddess of the dawn——"
Luo Yin raised the divine spear with his right hand and said coldly while suppressing the anger in his heart.
"Memnon, let me tell you that no matter from the reality or the mythological interpretation, you are a fictional character - a replica of Achilles. In real history, you are a hero made up by the people of Asia Minor more than 300 years after the end of the mythological era. But in reality, the Kingdom of Ethiopia is 8,000 miles away from Troyim, so the Kingdom of Ethiopia has nothing to do with Troyim. It was the people of Asia Minor who made you up, so your creator obviously lacks understanding and respect for the mythological world. In mythology, Ethiopia was conquered by the Mycenaeans as early as the time of Perseus and became a country that devoutly believed in Zeus. Zeus would never allow the descendants of other gods to rule Ethiopia, and the Ethiopians who devoutly believed in Zeus would not become Zeus's enemies and help the Troyim people fight against Zeus's high priest Agamemnon. The most important thing is - Circe has always been looking forward to dedicating her unmarried body to me, so you can't be her cheap son."
After saying that, Luo Yin threw the divine spear in his right hand at Memnon.
With a whoosh!
The blade of the divine spear instantly pierced through Memnon's heart and nailed him to the ground.
Then, under the gaze of Luo Yin, who was shining with platinum divine light, a ball of platinum solar fire appeared out of thin air and wrapped around Memnon's body, instantly burning Memnon's body to ashes.
After Memnon was killed by Luo Yin, the thousands of soldiers he brought with him all turned into flying birds and left the battlefield, leaving the Greeks and Trojans who witnessed all this dumbfounded, not understanding why Memnon's death would trigger such a miracle.
"What a clever arrangement!"
Seeing that all of Memnon's soldiers had turned into flying birds, Luo Yin said with a mocking sneer.
"In order to prevent this extra character of Memnon from affecting this war, not only was he killed by Achilles in his first battle, but the army brought by Memnon was also arranged to turn into flying birds and leave. I remember there was a speculation in reality that Ethiopia, Memnon's hometown, was actually Hermopolis in Egypt. The Mycenaeans claimed that the people there believed in Zeus devoutly. Did the supreme god of Egypt, the sun god Amon-Ra, agree? After all, Amon-Ra is the patron saint of Hermopolis!"
