Reversing Greek Mythology

All the young allies who were able to fight side by side were killed, and the war was obviously a complete failure.

However, Polynices did not want to accept defeat and gave up his fight for the throne with Etecles.

After the six leaders of the Thebes garrison surrounded Polynices, Adrastus, and Amphiaraus, Polynices took the initiative to step forward and said.

"My relatives and friends! Even if you support Etecles now, you cannot deny that as the eldest son of Oedipus, I am the legitimate heir to the throne of Thebes. In order to avoid the Thebans and Argives There were more casualties, and now I asked for a duel with my brother Etecles. If I killed him, I would become king of Thebes. If I was killed by Etecles, for me. The Argives who fought will return home."

By killing Capaneus, the heroic prince of Argos, Etecles' confidence was greatly improved.

Upon hearing Polynices' invitation to a duel, Etecles immediately jumped out of his chariot and came to Polynices and said.

"Polynices! Although you are the eldest son, it does not mean that you will definitely be stronger than me. I am willing to duel with you, let us use our strength to prove that I am the real king of Thebes."

"My stupid brother, I have the same strength as Tydeus."

"Tydeus has been turned into a corpse lying on the ground by my friend Melanipos, who himself was only seriously wounded."

The quarrel could not overcome Etecles, and Polynices angrily jumped out of the chariot and walked towards Etecles.

Before the duel between the two began, Etecles turned to look at the city of Thebes and prayed.

"Themis, the goddess who has always guarded Thebes, let my spear pierce the enemy and win victory!"

Polynices also prayed looking in the direction of the city of Athens.

"Palas Athena, the most warlike of the gods, please help me as you helped Tydeus."

Athena above the battlefield immediately looked at Luo Yin with a joking sneer and said.

"Stupid human! I will let Polynices and Etecles die together to prove to you that even in the land of Thebes, I have power and power that will not lose to Themis."

The walls of Thebes.

Seeing the duel between Polynices and Etecles, Antigone showed a worried expression, and Insmene also frowned.

Blind Oedipus seemed to know what happened and said with a sad face.

"I really gave birth to two stupid sons! They are twin brothers. They should have been the closest people to each other, but now they are fighting each other like enemies. After this duel begins, both of them will be cursed by the goddess of fate. In the end Falling in a pool of his own blood."

Insmene comforted Oedipus.

"The brothers may not necessarily die. Maybe someone will stop them from killing each other."

Antigone looked at Insmene in confusion and said.

"Brothers Polynices and Etecles are both great heroes second only to demigods. When the two of them duel, even demigods cannot stop them. Could it be that gods will come and stop the brothers? Killing each other?”

Yin Simene did not answer, looking at Luo Yin's figure on the battlefield.

As the soldiers on both sides blew the battle trumpet, Polynices and Etecles began to attack each other.

They stabbed with spears, but their opponents blocked them with shields.

After the first round of confrontation, both of them understood that the other party had the same strength as themselves, and they would be killed by the other party if they were not careful.

Under the nervous gaze of soldiers on both sides, Polynices and Etecles gradually fell into a bitter battle.

When the duel became intense and Polynices and Etecles gave up thinking and began to fight instinctively, the opportunity to decide the winner finally appeared.

First, Polynices seized Etecles's flaw and stabbed Etecles in the ankle with a spear.

At this time Polynices also revealed his flaws.

Etecles seized the opportunity to counterattack and stabbed Polynices in the shoulder with his own spear.

The result of losing both sides not only did not make Polynices and Etecles retreat, but instead inspired the murderous intention in their hearts.

They collided fiercely again, looking for an opportunity to kill each other.

Seeing that the shadow of death has enveloped the two brothers, Luo Yin also showed a serious expression on his face.

Just when Etecles stabbed Polynices with his spear desperately, Polynices also fought back desperately——

Luo Yin suddenly came to the two of them with the speed of teleportation.

Then before Etecles's spear blade pierced Polynices' abdomen and Polynices's spear blade pierced Etecles' heart, Luo Yin held their spears with his own hands. Blade, forcibly stopping the fatal attack of the two men.

Seeing this thrilling scene, everyone with their hearts in their throats first breathed a sigh of relief, and then Adrastos shouted.

"Young Haemon, how could you spoil the sacred duel? If Haemon had not stopped it, Polynices' spear blade would have pierced Etecles' heart and killed Etecles at the cost of his wounds. , so the victory of this duel belongs to Polynices.”

Polynices and Etecles looked at each other in shock, they had not yet recovered from their escape from death.

Katcha!

Katcha!

Luo Yin broke the spear blades of the two men with both hands, then looked at Adrastus with cold eyes and said coldly.

"Adrastus! For your ambition, your son-in-law Tydeus has died in battle, leaving your daughter Deimpil a widow, and your grandson Diomedes fatherless. Now you should Care about the husband of your eldest daughter Archiko and the father of your grandson Thersanteros, not the throne of Thebes which has nothing to do with you.”

Luo Yin's words obviously could not sway Adrastus' ambition, and he said to Polynices with a fanatical look.

"Polynices, quickly ask Etecles to return the throne to you, because you were able to give him a fatal attack just now, so the victory of the duel belongs to you."

Polynices had a struggling expression on his face as he tried to speak.

At this moment, an angry voice suddenly said.

"An attack that pierces the heart is a fatal attack, but isn't an attack that pierces the liver a fatal attack? If Haemon hadn't stopped them, both of them would have turned into corpses."

Everyone turned their heads and saw Oedipus walking over with the support of Antigone and Insmene.

The three of them walked to the center of the battlefield, and Oedipus' eyes seemed to see light again. He pushed away the two daughters beside him, and swung the wooden stick in his hand to hit Polynices and Etecles.

boom! boom!

The two brothers did not dodge, but were knocked to the ground by Oedipus. Oedipus looked at them sadly and said.

"You two stupid guys, in order to fight for the throne of your ancestor Cadmus, you actually want to kill your twin brother who is like your other self. Now I want to deprive you of your inheritance rights in front of everyone. You are not my real My son, neither my property nor my throne will be left to you. Everything that belongs to me will be inherited by my daughters Antigone and Insmene. Even if you kill each other, you will not get the throne. Duel?"
