I became the master of the alien world

Chapter 261 Achilles

The gods in the sky are not as great as mortals imagine. They often spread their anger to the land below because of their selfish desires.

Achilles, known as the God of War, was a fanatic for war. When chaos came to the divine world, he would deliver highly inflammatory speeches and summon a large number of angels to become warriors under his command.

Although he is not a pure god, but only an existence close to God, due to his extraordinary fighting skills, his status in the divine world can be compared with that of the main god.

According to legend, Achilles was the son of Peleus, the king of the eastern part of the Starfall Continent in ancient times, and the sea goddess Thetis. He had a perfect body, nearly invincible martial arts, and an adventurous character who fought selflessly.

It foreshadows his two fates: remaining in obscurity until old age, or dying gloriously on the battlefield.

Thetis didn't want Achilles to learn martial arts, so she placed him in an ordinary church to study history and etiquette. However, Odysseus, the priest of the church, discovered his talent and determined that Achilles was a born warrior.

A specialized teacher was hired to teach him martial arts.

Many years later, Achilles resolutely went to the battlefield to fight the enemy, conquered cities and made countless achievements.

Before Achilles left for the battle, Thetis learned that his death was approaching and he would be buried under the snowy city. He himself knew this very well.

Although Thetis knew that the fate was decided, she still told Achilles to be more careful.

But he still stood up to join the war without any timidity. Especially after he learned that his close friend Patroclus was killed by the enemy's prince Hector, he was filled with grief and anger and was in pain.

Thetis warned him before leaving: revenge for his friends would lead to his death on the battlefield.

Achilles heard this and said angrily: "If the goddess of fate doesn't let me protect my murdered friend, I would rather die! He died in a foreign land, but I didn't rescue him, then what's the point of my short life?"

What’s the meaning? I will definitely seek justice for Patroclus, and let the fate prescribed by the gods befall me!”

The rage that reached the sky turned him into a murderous demon. He was so brave in the battlefield that the enemy's corpses and blood filled the Ganges river. The river god of the Ganges was so angry that he wanted to kill Ah with his divine power.

Chileus, but was stopped by Athena, the goddess of wisdom.

During the decisive battle with Hector who killed Patroclus, Hector once begged: When one of the parties in the decisive battle dies, please do not insult the other party's body.

However, the furious Achilles ignored the other party's words and tied Hector's body behind his horse. He dragged the body backwards and ran around his friend's coffin three times, and was captured with twelve

of enemy soldiers as sacrifices for the burial of Patroclus.

Being reckless and even cruel in battle is just one aspect of Achilles' multiple personalities. A large part of his cruelty comes from his love for his friends. The relationship between Achilles and Patroclus is described in detail in

The friendship between brothers and sisters.

Cherishing friendship and placing obligations to friends above all else also reflects the warm and kind side of Achilles' character.

This gentle and kind nature is also reflected in many other aspects. When the sun god Apollo brought disaster to the foreign races in the north, Achilles immediately protested against Apollo's behavior and called everyone to discuss countermeasures.

When Hector's father, King Ecete, knelt before him, kissed the hands that killed his son with tears in his eyes, and begged Achilles to allow him to redeem his son's body, Achilles

It suddenly occurred to me that my elderly father also cherished me so much and respected him and others, and he was moved to tears.

So Achilles returned Hector's body to Priam and agreed to a twelve-day truce so that the old king could give Hector a decent burial.

If selfless fighting and gentleness and kindness constitute two opposing aspects of Achilles' character, then the core that dominates these two aspects is the understanding and pursuit of glory.

Achilles was able to go to the battlefield without fear of death because he regarded bravery as the highest personal honor. This great warrior who made the gods feel palpitated insisted that the weak were worthless waste.

He deeply loves his nation, but when his personal honor and dignity are hurt, safeguarding this honor and dignity comes first.

When the coach Agamemnon announced that he would snatch away the spoils from Achilles' tent, Achilles suddenly felt that his honor and dignity had been insulted. He said angrily: "I fought hard on the battlefield.

You can’t just stay here and continue to increase your wealth for your greed!”

Unexpectedly, Agamemnon replied calmly: "I will personally go to your camp and take away the beautiful Briseis as a reward to you. I will let you clearly know the difference between you and me, and at the same time, I will also warn you."

Others, please don’t dare to contradict my authority like you.”

Achilles was so angry that he might have killed his commander if Athena, the goddess of wisdom, had not intervened to stop him.

However, from then on, he neither went to war nor participated in discussions, allowing thousands of imperial soldiers to die under the enemy's arrows. When Agamemnon had no choice but to return Briseis and came to the door

Achilles apologized, but Achilles was indifferent.

Obviously, Achilles was not infatuated with the slave girl and property, but stubbornly wanted to prevent Agamemnon and others from infringing on his personal dignity and honor, and to recognize him as the greatest warrior.

Achilles fought all his life, and thousands of souls died under his guns. And the strong smell of blood on his weapons could not be completely dissipated even after thousands of years of washing.

After Achilles died, the spear that he used to fight in all directions was brought to the God Realm by Odin, claiming to prevent this murderous thing from reappearing in the world.

From then on, Achilles' spear was used by Odin. Odin injected divine power into it and blessed it with the highest divine blessing. The weapon of the Lord God Odin - the Eternal Spear (gungnir): When Odin throws

At this time, a bright light will be emitted across the sky, which people on the ground call "lightning".

The characteristic of the Eternal Spear is that once thrown, it will definitely hit the target. Due to the sacred blessing, once someone makes an oath to this spear, they must fulfill it and cannot go back on it.

Lancelot rubbed his sore neck, snapped his fingers, and the milky white ball of light immediately disappeared into the darkness.

There were many famous ancient families recorded in the book, but after reading through it, the boy didn't remember much.

However, he was deeply impressed by one of the families named Silver Mane:
