Greece brings evildoers.

Chapter 77: Everyone goes first, I come second!

Crete, in front of the coastal fortress.

King Minos, who became the focus of the battlefield due to the sudden change, tore off the tattered robe that was in the way, revealing the muscles of his upper body that were made of steel. With one hand, he raised the golden handle that represented the power and destiny of the Cretan king. The scepter pointed at the dark sea where the beast tide gathered, and he laughed loudly.

"Talos, my sword and my shield! Now that you've woken up, help me wipe out the foreign enemies!"

"——As you command, my king!"

A cold and solemn response came from behind the coastal fortress, resounding like rolling thunder throughout the surroundings.

On the horizon, the towering 100-meter-high bronze giant looked down at the invading beast tide on the sea, slowly opened its arms, and thousands of dense light patterns lit up one after another on the bronze shell, superimposing and resonating with each other.

Buzz buzz!

Twelve light wheels of different sizes were constructed one after another on the bronze giant's arms, legs, head, neck, back, chest and other parts. Then, like the light-shaped ring mouth of the fort, they automatically adjusted towards the sea where the beast tide gathered. Focus.

"——The spirit is restrained and the divine power is recharged!"

The mechanical sound echoed again, and the twelve light wheels emerging from the bronze giant's body rotated and sucked.

Suddenly, the spirits in the earth's veins and the ether in the air condensed into a substantial tide of magic, which converged crazily towards the bronze giant like a river rushing into the sea.

In just a short moment, the lines under the bronze skin that looked like human blood vessels were filled with spiritual liquid condensed from magical factors.

The surging [Golden Blood of God] converged towards the chest cavity of the bronze giant as the heart, and under the joint regulation and focus of the twelve light wheels, it finally turned into an extremely bright light flow, stimulating Shoot out.

——Echo liquid cannon, annihilation begins!

In an instant, a colorful light band with a diameter of tens of meters tore through the thin night, traversed the vast sea, and opened a bottomless chasm.

After more than ten seconds, the torrent of divinity converged, and the crack in the sea seemed to have been split open by a sharp sword. The fissure, which was a thousand meters deep, was filled up by the turbulent seawater that fell back.

"Wow!"

Amidst the turbulent waves, the previously crowded and noisy sea suddenly became dull and solemn; the group of squirming sea beasts in the center no longer existed; the originally dark sea water was now smeared with a scarlet red tide.

"Hiss~~!"

In the dead silence, all the creatures who were shocked by the scene before them gasped.

With just one blow, tens of thousands of sea beasts gathered on the coast of Crete were wiped out. Such power was simply terrifying!
The only ones who can do this easily are gods!
Of course, they were not wrong in theory.

The person who achieved such results was a genuine [God-like].

Lorne looked back at the coastal fortress and saw the majestic giant standing on the horizon, and its origins emerged in his mind.

The bronze giant Talos, belonging to the Bronze Generation, is immortal and survives to this day.

His race is older than the many demigods and divine-blooded heroes who established and ruled human city-states today.

Legend has it that these former bronze generations were bronze giants cast from bronze and stone by Hephaestus, the god of fire and casting, under the orders of Zeus, in a similar way to the creation of Pandora.

The purpose of their creation was to fill the void left on the earth after the extinction of the original humans after the Great Flood, and to appease the anger of the Earth Mother Goddess Gaia.

Therefore, these bronze giants have a bronze skin and a human appearance. They also have blood vessels like humans. The blood vessels are connected from the neck to the knees or ankles. This blood vessel is also the source of energy for the activities of the bronze giants, and God's energy flows in it. Spiritual liquid.

However, due to the lack of wisdom and proficiency in fighting, the bronze giant indulged in destruction and fighting, and gradually posed a huge threat to the living creatures on the ground, causing the earth mother goddess Gaia to become increasingly dissatisfied.

Therefore, Zeus ended this attempt to re-create mankind and ordered the craftsman god Hephaestus to destroy the bronze clan that was gradually getting out of control.

In that catastrophe, the bronze giant Talos was a single exception because he had the blood of the Melia fairies integrated into his body and had good rationality. He became the only survivor of the catastrophe.

Later, thanks to the grace of the earth mother Gaia, the new humans represented by Deucalion and Pyrrha repopulated the earth.

Talos, who was alone, was taken to the Holy Mountain to serve the gods of Olympus.

Then, Zeus, who was obsessed with sowing, transformed into a white bull and abducted Europa to the island of Crete, where she was allowed to serve as the concubine of the gods on earth and multiply the blood of his own god king.

Considering that his mortal lover was too weak, Zeus gave Europa three gifts.

Namely, the bronze giant Talos, the golden hound, and a kettle of golden arrows that are sure to hit.

After some twists and turns, the goddess Europa gave the three to Minos, her and Zeus's son, so that he could use them to defend his territory.

Since then, the bronze giant Talos has become the subordinate of King Minos, and has been patrolling Crete for him, and made great achievements in the early days.

As the Minoan civilization continued to grow, the bronze giant Talos gradually lost its usefulness and faded out of people's sight. He followed King Minos' order and slept underground to avoid harming innocent people.

Unexpectedly, it took a hundred years.

Because of this natural disaster from the sea, the bronze giant Talos, who once existed as a guardian and war weapon, was once again awakened by King Minos and was able to see the light of day again on the island of Crete, showing that he had once been a creature of God. Terrifying destructive power.

monster! monster!

At this moment, the three siren sisters, who had escaped through vigilance, glanced at the large pieces of floating meat on the sea and the blood stains that turned into red tide, and looked at the bronze giant Talos standing behind the defense line on the coast of Crete from a distance. He could not help but murmur in fear.

"Aaaaaa!!!"

Soon, the fear turned into anger, and the three siren sisters, who were aroused by this bloody scene with their demonic and ferocious nature, sang in unison.

The group of sea beasts that were originally in chaos, as if they had been beaten to death, entered a state of madness and excitement, and swarmed towards Crete, trying to close the distance and destroy the terrifying war weapon.

At the same time, the enveloping ocean tide turned into a huge whirlpool, and countless flesh and blood floating on the sea were swallowed and absorbed by it.

"Wow!"

[Maelstrom] Charybdis, who finished eating, used the flesh and blood divinity absorbed to reconstruct a huge water phantom.

The seawater mixed with organs and minced meat covered her body, revealing a bloody madness.

"die!"

Along with the unclear words, [Maelstrom] Charybdis raised his right hand high, gathered the dirty red tide, gathered a scarlet trident in his palm, and threw it hard at the long-defeated island on Crete. coastal fortress.

Facing the menacing attack, Talos's eyes flashed red, and he quickly stepped across the coastal fortress, with two crossed bronze arms protecting the front.

"when!"

Accompanied by the sharp jingle of gold and iron, the trident gathered by the sea water was firmly blocked by the bronze giant.

Although it is a mixed creation of bronze and stone and has a huge shape, Talos can move extremely fast due to the peerless craftsmanship of the craftsman god Hephaestus and the blood of the Melian fairies.

Theoretically, he could easily patrol three times a day around Crete, and the entire coastline of Crete exceeds 3 kilometers. "Roar!"

After failing to hit the target, Charybdis, carrying the waves and reaching the coast, let out an angry roar, and the hideous face formed by countless stumps and broken arms looked even more ugly and terrifying.

"boom!"

Facing the ferocious sea monster, the emotionless bronze giant raised his fist unceremoniously and punched the face with countless floating corpses of sea beasts.

"Wow!"

And as the [Great Whirlpool] Charybdis staggered back, a new wave of menacing tides suddenly collapsed and could no longer form an effective impact on the coast.

The remaining night recedes, and the morning sun breaks.

After a night of fierce fighting, the Minoans finally made it to dawn.

Looking at the bronze giant who defeated Charybdis in front of the coast with a punch, and King Minos standing majestically in front of the fortress, the surviving soldiers grabbed their weapons and beat their shields feverishly. Let out loud cheers.

"Μνωα (Minos)!"

"Μνωα (Minos)!"

"Μνωα (Minos)!"

Listening to the passionate shouts like a wave behind him, the old man felt as if he had returned to his youth when he rushed to the battlefield with a sword and shield in hand and fought with foreigners.

As the hot blood surged in his chest, awakening the fighting spirit accumulated in this old body, King Minos simply threw the golden scepter in his hand to his daughter, and snatched the bronze scepter from his eldest son's hand. He pointed his spear at the battlefield and shouted loudly.

"The beast tide has broken, set sail! Go to war!"

"Crack-!"

Meanwhile, a sheltered spot on the backside of Crete.

Pieces of white sails gathered together and fluttered with the hunting sea breeze.

Then, dozens of huge galley warships sailed out from the two wings of Crete, like angry dragons entering the sea, churning the turbulent waves, and pounced on the frontal battlefield where large numbers of sea beasts gathered.

The soldiers standing on the offshore fortress looked intently and saw burly figures wearing bronze armor, holding swords and shields in their hands, throwing spears from their backs, and long bows at their waists. They lined up neatly on the deck, exuding the spirit of The cold and murderous air.

When everyone saw clearly the double-sided ax and bull symbols on the flag, the excited cheers became louder and louder.

"The Divine Blood Guards! It's the Divine Blood Guards!"

The blood of gods flows in the human world. The purer it is, the more excellent warriors it can breed.

Therefore, the most elite troops in every city-state are often the Praetorian Guards composed of warriors with divine blood flowing through them.

Even if one cannot tell how many generations of mixed blood they are, each of them has the ability to compare with ordinary soldiers and is almost as capable as one against ten.

Once they appear on the battlefield, it often means a change in the pattern of war.

Now, with the defeat of the beast tide and the arrival of dawn.

This divine-blooded imperial guard, which had been recharging its strength all night, rushed out from the air, undoubtedly stabbing two sharp knives into the heart of the enemy.

At this moment, King Minos couldn't help but feel excited as he looked at the invincible fleet he had built on the sea, showing its fangs, dividing and surrounding the gradually chaotic beast tide, and strangling them in an orderly manner.

"Okay! Let these beasts show who is the king of the offshore sea!"

And looking at the large two-masted warships that shuttled like dragons on the sea, quickly dividing the battlefield, and the hundreds of divine blood forbidden ships on the deck that were like two rows of sharp spears, constantly piercing the tide of beasts with ease. Guards, Lorne was secretly amazed.

Although all the plans were discussed and formulated by him and King Minos, he also learned about the bronze giant Talos as the key decisive factor and the divine-blooded guards who appeared in the finale. Got the relevant information.

However, seeing it is better than hearing it a hundred times.

Not only was the fighting power of the bronze giant Talos surprising him, but even the performance of King Minos's divine-blooded guards greatly exceeded his expectations.

Fighting against herds of beasts at sea, he was able to repeatedly penetrate the formations of these ocean natives by relying on cooperation. His combat prowess was not inferior to that of the Atlantean Guards he encountered before. It was simply incredible.

But thinking about it carefully, Lorne felt a little relieved.

In real history, the Minoan dynasty took full advantage of Crete's superior geographical location, developed the shipbuilding industry, and established a powerful fleet, one of the earliest navies in the world.

With this invincible armada, the Minoans dominated the Aegean Sea and shocked Athens, making Crete a link between advanced countries in Europe, Asia, and Africa, and ultimately enabled the Minoan dynasty to compete with Egypt. , Syria, Babylon, Asia Minor and other regions to maintain trade exchanges, thereby becoming a maritime hegemony.
During the period when the Minoans were most powerful, that is, during the reign of King Minos, all the countries in the Aegean Sea surrendered to Minos one after another, and Athens also had to pay tribute to him.

Perhaps because they were beaten badly, many Mediterranean city-states secretly compiled the dark history of the Minoans.

The legend of the Minotaur probably arose during this period.

"Want to resist?! This is not Atlantis!"

The old man sneered, grabbed the bronze spear, carried a war bow and the bag of golden arrows he got from his mother Europa, jumped up, flew out of the fortress, and went straight to the center of the battlefield where the sirens were trying to regain control of the beast tide to counterattack. Three sisters.

Finally got to the last move successfully.

So, General!
At the same time, Lorne, who was always holding his breath on the city wall, looked at the expected situation. He pulled out his bronze sword with relief, stirred up the divine power in his body, followed King Minos, and headed towards the command center of the beast tide. The three siren sisters.

But for some reason, the closer he got to the battlefield, the harder his heart beat.

It seems that there is still something that makes him uneasy...

Lorne's heart skipped a beat, he raised his hand and whispered to King Minos in front of him.

"borrow!"

"borrow?"

King Minos paused for a moment, then followed the direction of Lorne's fingers, glanced at the long bow and golden arrows on his waist, laughed loudly, and threw them behind him without thinking.

"Haha, what can I borrow? I gave it to you!"

Lorne took the long bow and the pot of golden arrows, and glanced at King Minos who couldn't wait to rush to the battlefield with twinkling eyes. He wanted to open his mouth to say something, but finally closed his mouth.

On the sea, the figure behind quietly slowed down and gradually distanced itself from the former.
