Chapter 44 Booty
As the commander of the Greek coalition, he still needs to give face, but he had to say some words: "I know Lord Dassus has considered it far-reachingly, but the battle is different from the past. As far as I know, the initiator of this war was not Xerxes."
"Not Xerxes?" Dassus looked at each other with his deputy.
This view is so surprising.
Yun Qi was very satisfied with the other party's performance and continued: "Do you still remember the Persian naval commander?"
Dassus, who knows military information, naturally knows: "Atemisia."
"Do you know the origin of Artemisia and Greece?"
Yun Qi's next sentence asked Dassus.
"Don't you think the name 'Atemisia' doesn't look like a Persian name at all? In fact, Artemisia is a member of the Greek city-state. The village she lived in has been invaded by soldiers from other city-states, her parents and relatives were slaughtered, and she herself was sold to a slave ship because of her beauty, suffered inhuman torture, and finally she was abandoned like garbage."
"But...isn't she the commander-in-chief of Xerxes?" Dassus asked in disbelief.
"When she was dying, she was met by a Persian envoy. I don't know if it was because of pity or other reasons. The Persian envoy brought her back to Persia and began to cultivate it as a dead soldier. But she knew that Artemisia was extremely qualified and hated for extermination. She made great contributions in front of the Persian emperor Darius at that time, and finally rose to prominence and became Darius' favorite favorite general."
"There is such a story?" Dassus listened with relish, but he turned his thoughts to the subject: "What does this have to do with our killing of Persian envoys now? Could it be that the Persian envoy who saved Artemisia was the one you killed? That would be even more unfavorable to us."
Yun Qi smiled and said, "Of course it's not that coincidental, in fact..."
It turned out that Yun Qi wanted to say that the Persian envoy who saved Artemisia was actually the black envoy killed by the Spartan king. However, it was too difficult to understand what he said. After all, in ancient times when communication was underdeveloped, it sounded too incredible to associate Persian envoys more than ten years ago with the envoys who were sent to Sparta today.
Yun Qi turned to it: "In fact, in the battle between Greece and Persia many years ago, Darius, the father of Xerxes, was severely injured by the hero Temistokles (the male protagonist of the second part of the 300 Warriors) in the fierce battle between the two armies, leaving behind the last words of 'Only God can defeat Greece'. This last words were originally a warning to his son Xerxes not to mobilize troops to invade Greece, but was distorted by the naval commander Artemisia, which made Xerxes, who was trapped in the pain of losing his father, think that only by becoming a 'god' can he be qualified to invade Greece."
Dassus didn't know about these, but for the Reincarnation, these plots were clearly explained in the second part of the 300 Warriors. The Persian Emperor, who was extremely arrogant in the first part, claimed to be a god, was actually not necessarily a lie.
"So, Xerxes became a god?" Dassus worried.
Yun Qi: "If it is God's word, why should we launch a large army to invade Greece? We directly surrender God's punishment and let those of us who resist him die. Lord Dassus, this is not the point. If mortals can become God's words so easily, why should we fear God?"
He paused and said, "What I want to say is that Xerxes's battle this time was to avenge Darius's arrow, but the real messenger behind it was Artemisia. She would never compromise if she wanted to destroy the entire Greek Federation."
Yun Qi's words have been said very thoroughly. There is indeed a legend about Artemisia being a Greek and avenging her dead family.
Yun Qi said so much, and I would like to convey to everyone a meaning: others will kill all the Greeks, and you still have a lucky mentality, which will only harm others and yourself.
After hearing this, Dassus couldn't say anything else. So he threw the judgment of killing the messenger to King Leonida.
This Spartan king was naturally not like Dassus. He had to compete with the Persians in his mind, even if it was a battle of defeat.
What's more, Leonida himself had killed Persian envoys, and he was not the kind of person who was pedantic and obsessed with paper rules at all.
In this way, Yun Qi not only obtained 20 killing points, but also received another look from the Spartans.
Next, everyone's eyes quickly shifted from the Persian messenger to the phoenix cart.
This phoenix car, made of brass, has a shiny surface polished and looks a bit similar to gold in the sun. It is lifted up by seven or eight people, and is naturally majestic.
Especially a cat-eye gem in the center of the main seat of the Luan Car reflects a special color under the fierce sun.
After the mercenary touched the gem with his own hands, he immediately obtained a series of attribute information of the gem, and also unlocked the secret that several people were bounced away before the siege.
It turned out that this cat-eye gem was at work.
This luxurious Luan Car has the ability to have similar fields. Once multiple people enter the range of cat eyes protection, an invisible energy barrier will be formed, bounced away everyone and only accommodate one person to enter the range of Luan Car.
This also explains why Persian envoys were fearless and were presumptuous in the territory of the Greek coalition!
The reincarnator did not hide the secret of the cat-eye gem and conveyed its information to all his companions.
Of course, this is not because the man is generous and generous. The real reason is that the cat-eye gem that reaches the rare level is a plot prop. Only by having Persian blood and obtaining the warriors of Xerxes can he fully exert the domain abilities contained in the cat-eye gem.
In other words, this is a rare prop that cannot be brought out of the mission world.
Yun Qi was also a pity. However, after seeing the information of the cat-eye gem, Sam looked at Yun Qi with a strange look, but he thought to himself: Could this guy have seen through the secrets of the Persian messenger domain in advance? Otherwise, how could he explain the five people?
But he has gained a lot.
That iron whip alone is valuable.
In addition to the high level of the iron whip itself, it actually has two skills.
【Emator's Whip: B-level whip weapon.】
[Owned skill 1: Raid whip, overdraw vitality, and increase all attributes to the first level. This skill can be used for summoned objects or mercenaries. After 5 to 10 minutes of use, the summoned objects (mercenaries) will die, consume 1 point of mental power, and no cooling time.]
[Owned Skill 2: Undead whip, calling the soul of the dead, and fighting for you. The strength of the undead depends on the strength of the deceased during his lifetime, and its strength remains between 20% and 50% of the life. This skill is played by the necromancer, which can increase the retention of the strength during his lifetime. It consumes mental power by 1 to 5 points, and no cooling time.]
Yun Qi weighed the iron whip, but turned around and threw it to Sam.
Sam looked at Yun Qi blankly: "This is..."
Yun Qi's next words shocked his face.
