Chapter 202 The Battle Between Pandora and Europa

Mount Ij.

This mountain is not only the highest peak in Crete, but also the natural dividing line between east and west of Crete.

At this time, in the plain area at the foot of the south of Yiji Mountain, two armies of 5000 men were confronting each other.

The 4000 army in the east is composed of [-] Knossos soldiers and [-] vassal city-state soldiers led by Minos [Deucalion], the king of Knossos who just succeeded the throne. The [-] army in the west is composed of many It was composed of [-] Donia soldiers led by Radamandis, king of the city of Nia, and [-] vassal city-state soldiers.

Minos [Deucalion] as the king of Knossos and Radamandes as the king of Donia are both young kings who are about 20 years younger, and they are also the most powerful on the island of Crete. Two heroes.

"Radamandis—"

Minos, wearing a horned helmet, stood in front of his army, looking at Radamandis who was confronting him expressionlessly and said.

"What are you crazy about, dare to challenge our city of Knossos? If your sister Pandora married me according to the marriage contract, I can forgive your challenge. It's a pity that the unfaithful Pandora betrayed me and chose to be my The side room of the enemy Loi, now I will destroy you and the city of Donia as punishment for you."

"Deucalion—since you have inherited the throne of Knossos, let me call you Minos!"

Radamandes, wearing a helmet decorated with feathers, said to Minos with a smile.

"Minos, do you really think you are stronger than me? I always lost to you in duels in the past because the city of Knossos was stronger than the city of Donia, so I had to lose to you. I don't want to pretend Even if I lose to you, I don't want to marry my beloved sister Pandora to you, now I finally don't have to hide my true thoughts anymore."

"Radamandis, you said you were pretending to lose to me—"

Minos pointed his bronze spear at Radamandis and sneered.

"Then let's have a real duel now, and I will convince you that you lose."

"Arrogant Minos, the one who will lose must be you."

The two young and vigorous kings rushed to fight each other, and the soldiers of Knossos and the soldiers of Donia also collided like two tides.

Donia City.

The city in northwestern Crete is bordered by the Gulf of Suza, sandwiched between Crete and Akrotiri to the east, and Akrotiri, Crete, Rozo to the west. The Gulf of Donia between the Persian peninsula.

Three thousand and 600 years later, the city of Donia became one of the main ports of Crete. Even the only superpower in the world built a naval base in Suza Bay. It can be seen that the city of Donia has the potential to develop into a trading hub. .

At the east gate of Donia City, Pandora stood on the stone wall, looking at the battle in central Crete with a solemn expression.

"Knossos is so weak, don't let me down—Radamandis!"

Pandora said to herself.

"As long as you defeat Minos, Donia City also has the potential to compete for hegemony in the Aegean Sea."

After finishing speaking, Pandora stretched her hands left and right, and slowly closed her eyes.

flap!flap!
A pair of wings bursting with divine light stretched out from Pandora's back.

With the waving of the divine wings, Pandora's body seemed to leave the ground at any time.

Fluttering -- fluttering --

When the pair of divine wings waved twelve times in a row, Pandora's body remained firmly in place, but a looming Pandora left Pandora's body, vibrating its wings and flew towards the Pandora Temple in the royal palace of Donia City.

After a moment.

A goddess with black wings on her back appeared in the sky above the city of Donia with a gigantic figure of a thousand meters tall.

This is a goddess with the same face and body as Pandora, but under the divine power of the goddess, the goddess has a beauty and charm that human Pandora does not have.

Goddess Pandora opened her eyes, sizing up the world with owl-like columnar golden pupils, and said with a joyful smile on her face.

"The humiliation Europa left me will come to an end today."

After speaking, Goddess Pandora vibrated her wings on her back, and her figure immediately turned into a black streamer and flew towards the central part of Crete.

Central Crete.

The war between Radamandis and Minos continues.

As the fierce fighting between Radamandis and Minos continued until now, both Radamandis and Minos have understood that their strength is between them, and it is impossible to tell the winner in a short time.

"Radamandis, you deserve to be a hero as famous as me, but unfortunately you must be the loser in this battle."

After declaring victory, Minos fought and prayed aloud.

"Great goddess Europa, please lend me your divine power so that I can defeat the enemies of Knossos."

As soon as Minos had finished praying, the goddess Europa appeared on the battlefield in the form of a [-]-meter-tall bull-headed goddess with two horns.

Radamandis said calmly.

"Minos, don't think that only your city of Knossos is protected by the patron saint, and our city of Donia is also protected by the goddess Pandora. Great goddess Pandora, I ask for your help to defeat the enemy in front of me."

Before Radamandus finished speaking, the goddess Pandora descended on the battlefield with vibrating wings and confronted the goddess Europa.

"Pandora—"

Europa looked at Pandora calmly and said.

"We haven't seen each other for hundreds of years."

"The trauma you left me in the past was so severe that I had to spend hundreds of years healing."

Pandora said with a sneer.

"Europa, I have been dormant for so long, and finally when your strength weakens, I can return all the humiliation you left me."

Europa sighed and said.

"We are sisters living in Crete, why do we have to fight each other? Don't you think we should join forces and fight against gods outside of Crete?"

"That sounds good! Then, are you willing to use the Iji Mountain in the central part of Crete to divide the territory with me, and promise not to hinder the development of Donia City into a trade hub in the Aegean Sea?"

"Pandora—"

Hearing Pandora's request, Europa said with an ugly face.

"Don't you understand that only the whole island of Crete is headed by me and the city of Knossos in order to unite all the city-states of Crete. You want to be equal to me, and the city of Donia wants to be equal to Knossos If the city competes for the status of a trade hub, it will only disperse our power and we will not be able to fight against gods outside of Crete. The really smart way should be to make me the only patron saint of Crete, and I promise to let you You have become my number one subordinate god, possessing a sacred status second only to mine in Crete."

"Do you think I'm a fool? What you said is so righteous, why don't you make me the only patron saint of Crete? I can also promise you that I will make you my first subordinate god, and let you have the second only to my holy place."

Pandora sneered and ridiculed.

"Europa, if you really have righteousness in your heart, kneel down and surrender to me, and become my subordinate god! If you say those words just to defend your own interests, then don't waste any more time, let us use our strength to decide benefit!"
