I was a priest in the city-state era

Chapter 98 Perseus' Crusade against Medusa
In ancient legends, there are two different versions of Perseus' life experience.

In the first version, Danae, the mother of Perseus, married Polydectes, king of Serifos.

Since Polydectes was the father of Perseus, Perseus was both the prince of Mycenae and the prince and heir to the throne of Serifos.

The second version is that Danae, the mother of Perseus, married Diketes, the younger brother of Polydectes, king of Serifos.

Because Polydectes coveted Danae, Perseus killed King Polydectes when he grew up and made his father Diketes the new king of Serifos.

Because there are two versions of Perseus's life experience, Polydectes, king of Serifos Island, and his younger brother Diketes, are both husbands of Danae and fathers of Perseus. .

Of course, this is Perseus from another world's ancient legend.

In the world where Roy is now, King Polydectes of Serifos is the only husband of Danae and the only father of Perseus.

Even if Diketis had a secret relationship with Danae, it was impossible for a third party to know about it.

At this time, outside the west gate of the city of Athens.

Perseus, Polydectes, and Diketes, as the three leaders, are leading a fierce attack with [-] soldiers.

Although Pandion and Erechthes also had [-] soldiers, Pandion was being besieged by the brothers Polydectes and Dicetis, and Erechthes was also defeated by Perseus, who was far superior to him. Suppression.

Because Pandion and Erechtheus were suppressed by the three leaders of the enemy, the morale of the Athenian soldiers was also hit, and they were slowly retreating into the city of Athens under the onslaught of the Mycenaean soldiers.

Roy came to the west gate with his followers, and saw Perseus taunting Erechtheus while forcing Erechtheus back with a fierce attack.

"People of Athens, it seems that today your city of Athens will be conquered by us Mycenaeans. After we capture the Acropolis, we will not only humiliate your beautiful mother and sister, but also your Athenian goddess Metis Belittled and humiliated. I want to imitate the myth of Marduk, the king of gods in Mesopotamia, beheading the great goddess Tiamat, and fabricate the myth of Perseus beheading Metis, the banshee of snakes. If you Let us surrender now, I can mercifully change the name of Metis, and fabricate the myth that Perseus killed Medusa, the banshee of snakes. But I will let Medusa have the [saltization] power of the sea goddess, Let everyone understand that Medusa, the serpent slain by the great hero Perseus, is Metis, the goddess of your Athenians."

"Perseus—"

Hearing what Perseus said, Roy immediately rushed over angrily, brandishing the bronze spear and delivering a swift blow.

Because Roy has the strength of a hero [enemies of a hundred men], Perseus didn't dare to be careless, and immediately retreated to avoid Roy's attack.

After Roy stood with Erechtheus, Erechtheus said angrily.

"Go away, I don't want to join forces with you to deal with Perseus."

"You are not Perseus' opponent yet!"

Roy shook his head and said.

"Leave Perseus to me to deal with, and you go to help the leader of Pandion."

Erechtheus turned his head and saw that Pandion was struggling under the siege of Polydectes and Diketes, so he had no choice but to go to support his father unwillingly.

With Erechtheus sharing the pressure, the situation became Pandion vs. Polydectes, and Erechtheus vs. Diketes. The four were evenly tied.

After Roy and Perseus had a one-on-one confrontation, Perseus said with a playful smile.

"Priest Luoy, last time we did not have a duel, now we can have a battle of life and death. I will use the facts to prove to everyone that you are not tied with me at all. strength."

Roy said with a cold face.

"Perseus! You have humiliated the goddess I serve. I will use your life as a sacrifice to the goddess Metis, and help you wash away the sin of blasphemy."

After speaking, Roy took the initiative to attack Perseus.

The golden bronze spear shining in the scorching sun struck Perseus like a bolt of lightning.

Perseus easily dodged Roy's attack, then swung his spear to strike back.

Roy has Mnemosyne's blessing [Future Foretelling], and also easily dodges Perseus' attack.

Although the battle between the two was fierce, it could only be a draw, Perseus couldn't help but said.

"It's really unpleasant! Your combat experience is far inferior to mine, but you can always rely on your powerful fighting instinct to avoid my attacks. The God of Destiny really dotes on you, and even endowed you with such a powerful fighting instinct."

"Stupid Perseus!"

Roy mocked with a mocking sneer.

"What gave me this fighting instinct was not the illusory Goddess of Destiny who couldn't confirm her real existence, but a real Goddess."

"Your fighting instinct is not innate? It seems that the goddess Metis is stronger than I thought, but you will still lose this battle, because if the two of us become a war of attrition, your strength will definitely Will fail before I do."

If Roy only had the blessing and divine power of Metis on him, Roy's power would indeed fail before Perseus.

But Roy has the blessings and divine powers from Metis and Mnemosyne at the same time.

Although Roy has not yet possessed inexhaustible power like a demigod hero, Roy already has the potential to grow into a great hero [A Thousand Enemies]. lost to Perseus.

"Perseus! I don't think I will lose to you in a war of attrition, and I will defeat you before entering the war of attrition."

After finishing speaking, Roy used the bronze spear to attack Perseus's flaws while avoiding Perseus's attack while Perseus was attacking.

puff--

Although Perseus made an evasive movement, Roy's spear blade stabbed Perseus's right shoulder.

Perseus immediately took a few steps back, stared at Roy with wide-eyed disbelief and said.

"How is this possible? Did you already predict which part of you I would attack when I attacked you?"

Roy can [foresee the future] during battle——

As the biggest trump card, this is of course a secret that cannot be revealed.

So seeing Perseus doubting his ability, Roy said with a sneer.

"Stupid Perseus! Didn't you notice that the moves you used to attack have started to repeat? My memory is very good. Even if I don't have the ability to predict, I can predict your moves when you make them. attack."

After speaking, Roy continued to attack Perseus, preventing Perseus from having more time to think.

Could it be that my moves started repeating?
Although Perseus did not fully believe Roy's words, he still changed the way of attacking Roy.
