Give Me the Name of God

Prometheus is shouting in the ears of his followers: "This is Ares' trap!"

Rungersen had great trust in this soldier commander, and he immediately searched for the Ares believer named Gatan.

Before dinner, he was still distributing wheat to the believers. Zuglan and Tinian kept saying that he was a kind person.

But now there was no trace of him. Longsen searched the crowd for a long time but could not find him.

"When did you meet him?"

"Two days ago," Zugram replied, "Sheltai did not allow refugees to enter his territory. It is said that his territory was also hit by the plague, and tens of thousands of people died. We encountered many checkpoints along the way, all of which were heavily guarded. , anyone who comes from the east will be killed without mercy, only Gatan found this road without checkpoints."

"You encountered a checkpoint?" Longgesen said in astonishment, "Does that mean you have already reached the boundary between the southeast and due south?"

Tinian nodded and said: "Yes, we are now due south."

Longerson and Kalyan looked at each other for a moment, then turned to look at Tinian and Zuglan.

They are Suss's bodyguards. They have lived in the southeast for many years. It is impossible for them not to know the road.

There are so many people from the southeast, it’s impossible that they all don’t know the way.

Kalyan has been to the southeast three times, and Rungersen has only been twice. Even they know that this place is still in the southeast, and it is at least two days away from the border.

In other words, since they met Gatan, they have been walking back, but no one can notice it.

Although Longerson and Kalyan had just joined the team, they had followed them for a while. Did they also go in the wrong direction? Why do you lose your sense of direction when you join this team?

Needless to say, this is some kind of Gatan's skill, but in Rungersen's impression, followers of Ares don't have confusing skills.

He may have lied, or he may have had helpers, but those are beside the point.

The key point is the current location. Longesen observed the surrounding environment, and then he discovered that the place where they camped was a canyon with steep hillsides on both sides.

Longsen was dumbfounded. How could he agree to camp here? The canyon is the most vulnerable place to be ambushed and is a typical place where soldiers die.

Longerson firmly believed that he would not make such a mistake. He must have been affected by some high-level skill or divine object just now.

"Everyone, grab your weapons and bags and leave here immediately!"

Lungerson gave the order, and only his soldiers were willing to carry it out.

Other believers only thought Longgesen was funny. Even Zuglan and Tinian didn’t understand Longesen’s actions: “What are you trying to do? The road ahead is still long. If we don’t take a good rest, we won’t be able to do anything.” Maybe we can make it to the southwest."

Longerson ignored the others. He was not familiar with them and had no need to help them. Kalyan quickly said to Zugram: "Come with us, the general's intuition is not wrong, I also think this place is very dangerous!"

Under the watchful eyes of the believers, Longesen and his soldiers were about to leave when they suddenly heard a harsh sound breaking through the air, and large spears rained down from the hillsides on both sides.

Rungersen's soldiers immediately raised their shields and formed a defensive formation.

But the believers did not have this quality, and many first- and second-level believers were killed by throwing spears. More than half of the team of more than 200 people was killed in the blink of an eye.

Being able to easily kill ancient god believers with spear throwing is obviously not the work of ordinary soldiers, but the skill of ancient god believers.

Lungeson is very familiar with this skill. Just like the followers of Apollo are good at using bows and arrows, the followers of Ares are good at throwing spears. Their second-level skill is called Spear Soul Flying. This skill will make spear throwers The speed and penetration are doubled, and there is no need to aim, the spear will automatically chase the enemy.

The shields of several soldiers were penetrated, and even a hole was poked in Longgesen's armor. He pulled out the spear from his armor and threw it back towards the hillside. Not long after, an Ares soldier The disciple slipped down the hillside and his head was impaled by Rungersen's spear.

This counterattack was very satisfying, and many believers imitated him. They also picked up their spears and threw them towards the hillside in the darkness. Longesen took the opportunity to lead his soldiers towards the exit of the valley.

Now is not the time to counterattack, and this is not the place to counterattack. The disadvantages in the terrain cannot be restored by human power. Judging from the intensity of spear throwing, the enemy's ambush on the hillside was likely to exceed two hundred people. Killing one or two enemies was unlikely to change the overall situation.

Less than two hundred feet away from the entrance of the valley, a rolling stone suddenly fell from the mountain, and more than a dozen soldiers died under the rolling stone.

With the talent of the hunting goddess, Zuglan used bows and arrows to kill several enemy soldiers who were ambushing at the entrance of the valley. Longgesen was also very skilled in shooting. With the help of Prometheus believers, he also shot and killed many enemies. Fewer enemies.

Most of the enemies who fell from the hillside were followers of Ares. Counting the enemies who threw spears before, the number must have exceeded three hundred.

Ares left a lot of blood in the world, which is very similar to his father, and because he is in charge of war, he is still particularly respected by soldiers. Even under the suppression of God's Punisher, he can still gain a lot of power of faith. .

He devotes most of his faith power to sowing his bloodline, and the number of his followers far exceeds that of other major gods, and is equivalent to the number of followers of Hercules. (Hercules left too much blood in the world)

However, although there are many believers, three hundred believers can be gathered at one time, which is an astonishing number.

What’s astonishing is not only the number, but also the appeal behind them. Ares’ followers are violent and arrogant. In the Romulu Kingdom, few Ares’ followers become outstanding generals because they are too difficult to control.

Who has the authority to bring together more than three hundred followers of Ares? What was his purpose in massacring these fleeing believers?

The real reason cannot be discovered at the moment. Before the rolling rocks piled up at the entrance of the valley, Longesen led the soldiers to rush out.

Leaving the valley, Longesen frowned again. Beyond the valley was a forest, which was still suitable for an ambush.

His head was indeed dizzy. He actually wanted to spend the night in a place like this. After decades of leading troops in war, this was the first time he had made such a low-level mistake.

What is the reason? Is it a charm technique?

But I haven’t seen it before...

A feather arrow shot towards the face, and Longgesen's thoughts were interrupted.

He ordered the soldiers to raise their shields and urge their horses to rush out of the forest as quickly as possible. However, after more than a dozen soldiers were hit by arrows and fell from their horses, Longesen ordered the soldiers to stop temporarily.

They couldn't break out, the enemy was too well prepared, and the forest was the last terrain the cavalry wanted to see.

We have to think of another way. The followers of the Hunting Goddess are here and we have to use her power to kill several enemy troops at key positions.

While I was thinking about it, a man, holding a battle ax and riding a horse, came to the path in the forest.

It was Gatan, and his bald head was very dazzling under the moonlight.

"A follower of Hercules, a general from the royal capital, do you dare to come and compete?"

He recognizes himself.

He wants to ride alone to win?

Judging from the aura on his body, this person is at least level three. How could he have the courage to challenge Longgesen?

Lungerson had never been afraid of a single-horse decisive battle, but he was worried that it was a trap. There was no need for the enemy to fight in this way when they had all the advantages.

"Are you afraid? Believers of Heracles?" Gatan continued, "Heracles' mother was a mortal. Although she was of low birth, she was at least the son of Zeus. He actually betrayed his father and begged for mercy from a messenger. , has he lost even the most basic dignity?"

Kalyan was shocked, Hercules betrayed Zeus? defected to the messenger? What does it mean? In the end what happened?

Longerson raised his lance, pointed at Gatan and said: "Who gives you the courage to blaspheme the gods, whether it is Hercules or Hermes, who gives you the courage to blaspheme them!"

Gatan spat on the ground and said with a ferocious smile: "They are no longer worthy of the title of gods. They are no longer worthy of the glory of Mount Olympia. I despise them according to the will of the God of War!"

Longsen's cheeks twitched slightly: "You want to die under my horse's hooves, I can help you!"

"Come on!" Gatan's eyes flashed, "If you win, I will let you go. If I win, you take your people and kneel down to die! I swear in the name of Ares! "

Longerson gritted his teeth and said: "I will chop off your head and offer it as a sacrifice to the gods. If I can't do it, I will never live in this world. I swear in the name of Hercules!"
