The Trojan War was a war between men and even more so a war between gods. However, once the background of mythology was involved, mortals became truly insignificant.
Just like the battle in Investiture of the Gods, although the background is the war between Shang and Zhou, the discussion of victory or failure is always about which side has more gods, and it is like the war between the orthodox and unorthodox sects. Humans are really irrelevant.
And even if this is the original myth, this Trojan War is full of weirdness...
In the chat group where time seemed to have almost stopped, Xia Lang and others discussed for quite some time but still could not reach a conclusion.
After all, it involves "God", which is undoubtedly their blind spot in knowledge.
Fortunately, they still have a single trump card, and after chatting in the group for such a long time, Xia Lang from the Dragon Ball World finally found the time to reply.
[Kaihu (Dragon Ball)]: If you need my help, just let me know and I will do my best to help.
【Martial Arts (Jin Yong)】: The boss is reliable!!!
[Baki (H)]: Boss, you are reliable!!!
【Western Fantasy (Troy)】: Thank you, hey...
At this point, there is no choice but to move on. Xia Lang must protect Troy, not only for his mission, but also... for his own conscience.
After exiting the chat group, Xia Lang, who was standing on the wall of Thebes, looked at the arrogant Ajax the Great from afar. Not far away, Hector was leading the elite Trojans towards here!
Compared to the prince, the Trojan Royal Guards who rushed forward first were even more brave.
Each of them was wearing the silver knight armor forged for them by Xia Lang. The forging skills that were ahead of their time meant that their armor should have been able to easily defend against any weapon attacks of this era.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
Inspired by their hero, the Daneans led by Ajax the Great were filled with confidence. These Greek bandits, who had become brave again, roared and rushed towards the charging Silver Knights, salivating at their glittering silver armor and sharp blades.
They threw the javelins in their hands. They were indeed elite soldiers, and eight out of ten of their javelins hit the target.
But nothing was accomplished.
Most of the javelins merely hit the silver shields in the hands of the knights, which were as clear as a mirror. The pig iron forged with primitive techniques could not even leave many scratches on these equipments, let alone penetrate the shields.
Even the few that hit the armor would at most cause the heavily armored knight to stagger on his horse.
In the era of cold weapons, armored heavy cavalry was like a heavy tank on the battlefield, not to mention the Greek battlefield which had not yet entered the feudal era.
The Greeks' attack showed no results, and soon they were hit head-on by the silver torrent.
The bravery and morale just now collapsed like a tide in an instant. Under the impact of the heavy knights, the defense line of these Danea people was quickly broken, their shields were knocked away, and even their whole bodies were pierced by spears like gourds.
Screams and wails were heard incessantly, and the space that the Greeks had finally managed to reach on the beach was quickly squeezed downwards.
The so-called brave warriors, after being pierced by the bravery of this pioneer, screamed and retreated, rushing into the sea current that brought them.
The Trojan soldiers won a great victory.
If this had been a real war, the Trojans would undoubtedly have won an overwhelming victory.
But alas, this is not the case.
"Useless thing, get out of here!!!"
Seeing that the beach he had captured was sent back by these useless guys, Ajax the Great angrily slapped away the soldiers blocking his way.
He really slapped it open, and with one slap the whole person was blown away along with his armor.
Then, facing the heavy cavalry charging like a silver tide, Daeas showed a ferocious smile and raised his hammer and shield high in the air.
boom! ! !
It was a sound as heavy as thunder, but it was the sound produced by the collision of thick metal armor and an even heavier hammer.
With screams one after another, the heavy cavalry, who had been so brave just now, were easily knocked away by Ajax the Great's hammer in an instant, flew high into the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.
However, the charge of these cavalrymen could not harm Ajax the Great at all.
The impacting spear stopped on the bronze shield wrapped in animal skin. Not only did it not penetrate it, it didn't even scratch the layer of animal skin.
Every attack that landed on the animal hide would produce a wonderful ripple, which not only offset the tearing and penetration, but also almost eliminated all the forces applied to it.
When the cavalry's charge was thus forcibly stopped, what greeted them was the ruthless hammer of Ajax the Great.
Each heavy blow sent the knight flying with his horse. There was no skill in Ajax's attack; the giant simply swung his hammer back and forth.
This scene is just like Sauron in The Lord of the Rings dealing with the coalition of humans and elves, invincible and unstoppable.
Soon, a desolate horn sounded from the rear. After hearing the order, and fearing the terrifying power of Ajax the Great, the Trojan warriors immediately turned around and left.
"Coward! Weakling! Hahahahaha, flee like a flock of sheep!"
Ajax the Great, whose body was covered in blood and minced meat, laughed harshly at the fleeing Trojans, and the Greek soldiers who followed him also laughed as if they had regained their courage.
"Retreat, and go into the city to rest for the time being."
Hector rode his horse and spoke in a deep voice to these knights who had charged without authorization. At this point he did not want to pursue the issue of them moving without orders.
After all, they are facing bigger problems now.
"The situation of Ajax the Great is very unusual. Hector, come back and we will discuss it in detail!"
Xia Lang on the city wall shouted anxiously to Hector outside the city that he must prepare more and stronger weapons to defeat this hero who suddenly turned on cheating!
"... Xia! If I can't go back, protect Troy for me."
Hector did not follow Xia Lang's advice. He looked at Ajax the Great in the distance, slightly pulled the reins of his horse, and grinned at Xia Lang on the city wall.
"If I don't go, there will be no way to wash away the mistakes and shame we have committed. The mistakes have already been made, how can I be a coward and not face them?"
He had to go, both for the Trojans’ honor, for himself, and for the people of Troy.
He didn't understand what had happened to Ajax the Great. Perhaps he had received the blessing and praise of the gods and had gained his extraordinary power today. But no matter what, he was the only one in Troy who could fight against him.
Even if he was a prince of 'honorable' status, what did it matter? When the battlefield needed him, and he was the only one who could fight, he had no chance of escaping.
After all, if I am not here, who can come forward?
Fortunately, he still had a loyal and reliable friend. Xia Lang was not a warrior like him, but he did not bear the responsibility and burden of washing away his brother's humiliation. Hector was very relieved to leave Troy to him for protection.
Then, let the gods witness my bravery, let the gods understand the courage of us Troy, and let me awaken to wash away the humiliation and sin.
"May Apollo bless me." Hector held the pendant on his chest tightly and put on a helmet.
Ignoring Xia Lang's dissuasion, Hector rode away on his horse, while Ajax, wearing a fur cloak, looked at Hector happily and said loudly:
"Prince of Troy, I finally meet you! Come, let's fight!!!"
Hector looked calmly at Ajax the Great in front of him. He felt an indescribable strange feeling, as if he had an unusually unfinished fateful battle with the person in front of him.
This feeling of destiny and glory so clearly stimulated Hector's nerves, but he still suppressed the impulse because he knew he had more important responsibilities.
"Ajax the Great, have you come here to trample upon the people of Troy?" Hector snapped.
"I came for glory and for immortal merit!" said Ajax the Great proudly.
"Then our fight has nothing to do with the people of Troy. We can fight and let my people leave here and return to their homes."
"no problem!"
Daeas decisively agreed to Hector's request, and such decisiveness also made Hector certain that even if Agamemnon was not dead, he would definitely not be able to take charge of the matter.
But it is strange, how did the army survive without Agamemnon? What happened?
It is impossible to tell the difference, just like Hector did not understand why Daeas possessed such powerful strength. If there is no answer to the question, then one can only leave it to the gods.
He dismounted and signaled part of his remaining troops to evacuate the people of Thebes. He knew that facing this hero, even the elite Trojan army would have lost its meaning.
The civilians in Thebes had nothing to do with the war, they were dragged into the chaos by their brother. Hector wanted to protect these people and get them out of the battlefield.
The war was started by my brother. I will protect my brother. I must also fulfill my responsibilities and atone for my sins.

Volume 95: Xia Lang's Various Time Travels: Chapter 92 . [Troy] Death of Hector
"Master Xia Lang, we..."
Soon, Hector's adjutant came to Xia Lang's side. Xia Lang stared at the battlefield without turning his head, and said angrily
"Go ahead, do as Hector said, take everyone away, leave only the soldiers, and take all the civilians to Tyrion City! Damn it, if he likes to be a hero so much, let him do it!"
He hated Hector's stubbornness. It was obvious that they should retreat and prepare, and then make plans, but he insisted on going up and playing his heroic role.
Hector's adjutant was a little hesitant. He seemed to still be full of confidence in his prince and in the war weapons of the Son of the God of Fire. He also believed that they would definitely win.
Why lose when you can win?
But he couldn't ask any questions because Xia Lang was staring at him. The eyes of this legendary son of the God of Fire were as sharp as torches, and the burning flames made him lower his head in panic.
Victory? Confidence?
Xia Lang really wanted to tell this stupid adjutant, confidence? He had never had such a luxury!
Not only did he not have that, he knew Hector didn't have that either. They didn't have that kind of confidence when facing Ajax the Great.
Xia Lang advocated retreating, while Hector was unwilling to withdraw. They both lacked such confidence, but they were absolutely united on one point.
Get the people out of this war, they don't belong here, they definitely don't belong.
Extraneous people began to be taken away from Thebes, and as the ships carrying them sailed away, the power of the Trojans was weakened.
But although he did not have the confidence to win, Hector did not think he would lose.
He pulled out the javelin behind him and the broken steel sword forged for him by Xia Lang. As the sword blade was pulled out, eight platinum-colored rays of light shone on the sword body, just like the Isu armor on Hector.
"Prince Troy, if I win, I want your armor and weapons!" Ajax the Great did not hide his desire, his longing and importance for powerful and gorgeous armor.
"Okay! If I win, I want you to withdraw from this war!"
The communication between each other was completed, and after a moment, Hector immediately chose to attack!
He threw the javelin in his hand. With Hector's strength and martial arts, and the power of the Isu armor, the javelin made a sound of breaking through the air and shot towards Ajax the Great like a cannonball!
This was Hector's first strike, and it was also his most powerful and confident strike.
Of all his attacks, Hector trusted his spear throwing skills the most!
boom! ! !
But as if following some kind of fate, Hector's cannonball-like spear pierced through the six layers of cowhide on the shield of Ajax the Great, but ultimately failed to penetrate the last seventh layer!
Hector reached for his second javelin, but did not throw it rashly.
"You're not the only one who possesses the weapons of the gods, I have them too!!!"
Ajax the Great laughed and raised his perfect shield, then threw his short spear, which was not as powerful as Hector's Isu armor. But the sharp and swift spear blade still grazed Hector's neck, leaving a scar on the indestructible Isu armor!
Faced with a result that was only a step away from death, Hector was not afraid. Instead, he stared at Ajax the Great, lowered his body and trotted forward.
Ajax the Great would not retreat at all and rushed forward with a roar!
Then they started a close fight.
Hector, blessed with Isu technology, should have possessed strength and speed beyond that of mortals, but the Daeas on the opposite side was not much inferior to him, and was even stronger.
He roared and swung the heavy hammer in his hand. With a barely perceptible light blooming on his hammer, the first strike alone destroyed the shield in Hector's hand that was as strong as an alloy but extremely light.
A deep dent appeared in the area where Ajax the Great's hammer had struck. Hector cried out in pain. The attack on the shield almost broke his arm.
Without hesitation, Hector instantly threw away the shield in his hand, and one of his arms drooped down as if it was broken, but Hector pulled out his broken steel sword in an instant.
Fortunately, Hector was fast enough, and his broken steel sword could hurt Daeas' body!
Hector held the sword in one hand and placed his other hand on the guard. At the moment when Ajax the Great roared and swung his hammer, he lowered his body and slid the sword towards his waist.
The blade cut through the animal skin that Ajax was wearing. The cloak, which was made of the fur of some unknown monster, was not cut. However, even so, a conspicuous scar almost cut open Ajax's abdomen.
Blood flowed down, but Daeas seemed to feel no pain. He laughed happily and threw away the shield in his hand.
The war hammer and the giant blade began the most direct collision!
Each attack caused a heavy tremor on the ground, and this much-anticipated duel continued.
The battle lasted from the afternoon until all the people in Thebes were evacuated, demonstrating a level of combat that was beyond human capability and making the beach look as if it had been ravaged by countless artillery shells.
Xia Lang watched the war closely. Ajax the Great's performance was not excessively beyond the scope, at least not as exaggerated as in some fantasy games.
He looked like an incredibly strong man, stronger than human though - but maybe not that bad?
Perhaps, relying on one's own creations can still bridge the gap between these so-called heroes and humans?
The moon was low in the night sky over Thebes, and the rocky shore and the Mycenaean fleet anchored on the shore were bathed in the silver moonlight. The much-anticipated duel attracted countless eyes from both sides, and there was no doubt that both of them were true heroes.
