Chapter 486: Sun Goddess and Thunderstorm Goddess

There were 8,000 defenders inside the city of Nerik, and 5,000 reinforcements from the Palak people outside the city.

Although Roy's Athenian army had 15,000 men, which was 3,000 more than their combined strength, this numerical advantage could not make up for the defensive advantage of the Neric city defenders.

The second day after arriving in Nairik City.

In order to ensure victory, Loy made a special request to Selene.

"Goddess Selene! I hope you can participate in this war and lead five thousand soldiers for me to deal with the Paleks."

Hearing Roy's request, Selene couldn't help laughing.

"My purpose of following you is to monitor you, not to help you fight!"

"Don't you want to be the patron saint of independence?"

Roy said seductively to Selene.

"Now you are just a subordinate god of Alina, and all your power and power come from Alina. If you help me win this war, I will make you the patron saint of a city and a place, and let you have your own authority."

"Are you—are you trying to sow discord between me and my sister?"

"One hundred thousand square kilometers!"

Roy said with a smile.

"I guarantee that you will get a territory with an area of ​​no less than 100,000 square kilometers and fertile and rich land."

Selene hesitated for a moment, then finally said with a smile.

"Since you said so, let me help you once!"

Money can make the world go round——

This sentence is really a wise saying!

Even gods can accept employment as long as they can afford the price.

After reaching a deal with Selene, Roy immediately divided the Athenian army into two. Roy led an army of 10,000 to attack the city of Neric, while Selene led an army of 5,000 to attack the Palak camp.

Nerrick City.

After Roy began to attack the city with an army of 10,000, the goddess Inara, who protected the Hattian people, appeared over the city of Nerik with a figure of one thousand meters tall.

Seeing that Roy wanted to use the power of the demigod hero to break down the gate of Nerik City, the goddess Inara said angrily.

"Human, if you choose to be Alina's accomplice, then you are my enemy."

While speaking, Inara waved her right hand and pointed at Roy.

Rumble——

A bolt of thunder immediately fell from the sky.

Roy dodged in time to avoid being hit by Inara's thunder.

"Goddess Inara——"

Unexpectedly, the goddess Inara, who has the same origin as Hestia, is also a goddess of thunder. Roy looked up at Inara in surprise and said.

"Are you not only an earth goddess, but also a thunder and rain god?"

The interior of the Asia Minor Peninsula has a subtropical summer dry climate with an average annual precipitation of 300 mm.

In order to meet the needs of the Hattian people, it is normal for Inara to become the thunder god in charge of rainfall.

The patron god of the Amorites, Marduk [Zeus Haddad Teishub], was originally the god of thunder and storm. In the Hittite mythology of another world, he became the god of storm and thunder. It was obviously a usurpation. Inara's identity as the God of Thunder and Rain.

Just like when Zeus came to the Argos region of the Peloponnese Peninsula, because the Argives worshiped Hestia as the goddess of thunder, Zeus used his identity as the God of Thunder to usurp Hestia's authority. and territory.

If Hestia worshiped by the Argives was the storm goddess, Zeus would use his identity as the storm god to usurp Hestia's authority and territory.

"In the long history, I have indeed fulfilled the Hattian people's need for rain and become the god of thunder and rain."

Goddess Inara said with a sneer.

"Today I will use the power of the God of Thunder and Rain to prevent you from attacking Nerik City."

Rumble——

Another bolt of thunder fell from the sky and struck Roy.

After Roy dodged the thunder, dense raindrops fell on Roy, and soon turned into a downpour that hindered Roy's soldiers from attacking Nerik City.

Seeing that the heavy rain had made the ground muddy and made it difficult to climb the walls of Nerik City, Roy widened his eyes helplessly and prepared for his soldiers to retreat.

At this moment, Alina's voice suddenly fell from the sky.

"Inara, don't make useless resistance."

The next moment!

The scorching dazzling sunlight pierced the rain clouds and enveloped the city of Nerik.

Winter and spring are supposed to be the rainy season in Asia Minor.

At this time, the sky was as hot as the scorching sun in summer.

Under the scorching sun, not only the rain clouds were dispersed, but the muddy ground and wet city walls also became dry.

Roy looked at the sun in the sky and saw the goddess Alina appearing in the sky where the sun was, like a sun blooming with light and heat.

The light and heat that disperses rain clouds and evaporates rain all come from Alina.

"Alina——"

Inara said angrily after Alina used the power of the sun goddess to destroy her thunder god's power.

"Are you my natural enemy and nemesis? I want to fight you openly. Do you dare to accept my challenge?"

"Why wouldn't I dare?"

In response to Inara's challenge, Alina immediately fell from the sky.

After Alina landed on the ground with her 10,000-meter-tall figure, Inara showed a desperate expression on her face when she saw the huge stature gap between the two sides.

Seeing Inara's reaction, Alina smiled jokingly.

"Dear Inara, I will give you a fair chance to fight. I will make you convinced that you lost, so you won't have any complaints!"

After saying that, Alina shrank into a figure that was a thousand meters tall.

The two goddesses confronted each other for a moment with their bodies of equal size, and Inara took the initiative to summon a black divine spear and attacked Alina.

"Alina, I want to wash away the shame of losing to you."

Alina also summoned a black divine spear, and said with a smile while resisting Inara's attack.

"Dear sister, why don't you want to admit that you can't defeat me? My hometown - the far north has ice and snow and severe cold that you can't imagine. I survived in the ice and snow kingdom and have a stronger body and fighting skills than you, so you can't defeat me."

"Because you are stronger, I will be conquered and enslaved by you, and you will take away everything from me?"

Inara said while attacking Alina.

"Alina, give me back everything you took from me."

"No!"

Alina refused without hesitation.

"The things I robbed already belong to me. You can use your strength to snatch them back from me, but I will not take the initiative to give them back to you."

There was a bang!

While the two goddesses were fighting, Roy used the power of the demigod hero to break the gate of Narik City and rushed into Narik City with his soldiers.

If the enemy was the Hittites who treated them as slaves, perhaps the Hattite soldiers in Narik City would fight to the death.

But Roy was different from the Hittites.

Under Roy's rule, the Hattites and Hittites were equal, and no one would treat the Hattites as slaves. Of course, the Hattite soldiers in Narik City did not need to fight to the death against Roy.

So Roy led the Athenian army into the city, and the soldiers defending Narik City began to surrender on a large scale.

Roy encountered almost no resistance and came to the Inara Temple in the city.

Walking behind the statue of Inara enshrined in the open air, Roy pressed the right leg of the statue of Inara with his left hand, and said to Inara before pushing down the statue of Inara.

"Goddess Inara! Although this is very unfair to you, there is no place for you in the Hittite Kingdom. From now on, this will be the eternal territory of Goddess Alina."
