Chapter 202 The Battle Between Pandora and Europa
Chapter 202 The Battle between Pandora and Europa
Mount Iji.
This mountain is not only the highest peak in Crete, but also the natural dividing line between eastern and western Crete.
At this time, in the plain area at the foot of the southern mountain of Yiji Mountain, two armies of 5,000 men were confronting each other.
The five thousand army in the east is composed of three thousand Knossos soldiers and two thousand vassal city-state soldiers led by Minos [Deucalion], the king of Knossos who has just succeeded to the throne. The five thousand army in the west is composed of many soldiers.
It consists of 4,000 Donia soldiers led by King Rhadamandis of Nia city and 1,000 vassal city-state soldiers.
Minos [Deucalion], the king of Knossos, and Rhadamandis, the king of Donia, are both young kings about twenty years younger, and they are also the most powerful ones on Crete now.
of two heroes.
"Radamandis——"
Minos, who was wearing a horned helmet, stood in front of his army, looking at Rhadamandis who was confronting him expressionlessly and said.
"Why have you gone so crazy that you dare to challenge our city of Knossos? If your sister Pandora abides by the engagement and marries me, I can forgive your challenging behavior. It is a pity that the unfaithful Pandora betrayed me and chose to be mine.
The enemy Roy's side room, 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!"
Rhadamandis, wearing a helmet decorated with feathers, said to Minos with a smile.
"Minos, do you think you are really 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
I lost to you and didn’t want to marry my beloved sister Pandora to you. Now I finally don’t have to hide my true inner thoughts.”
"Radamandis, you said you were pretending to lose to me——"
Minos pointed his bronze war spear at Rhadamandis and sneered.
"Then let's have a real showdown now. I'll make you convinced that you lost."
"Arrogant Minos, you must be the one who will lose."
The two young and energetic kings rushed towards each other to fight, and the soldiers of Knossos and the soldiers of Donia also collided like two tides.
Donia city.
This city is located in the northwest of Crete, with the Gulf of Souza sandwiched between Crete and the Akrotiri Peninsula to the east, and the Akrotiri Peninsula, Crete, and Rozo to the west.
Gulf of Doniya between the Persian Peninsula.
Three thousand six hundred years later, the city of Donia has become one of the main ports of Crete. Even the world's only superpower is building a naval base in Souza Bay. It can be seen that the city of Donia has also developed into a trade hub.
potential.
At the east gate of Donia, Pandora stood on the stone wall, looking at the war going on in central Crete with a solemn expression.
"The city of Knossos is so weak, don't let me down - Rhadamandis!"
Pandora said to herself.
"As long as you defeat Minos, Donia also has the potential to compete for hegemony in the Aegean Sea."
After saying that, Pandora stretched her hands to the left and right and slowly closed her eyes.
Thumping! Thumping!
A pair of wings blooming with divine light stretched out from Pandora's back.
With the waving of the divine wings, Pandora's body seemed likely to leave the ground at any time.
Puleng——Puleng——
When the pair of divine wings were waved twelve times in succession, 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 palace of Donia City.
After a while.
A goddess with black wings on her back appeared over the city of Donia with a huge figure of a thousand meters tall.
This is a goddess with the same face and body as Pandora, but under the influence of the goddess's divine power, the goddess has a beauty and charm that human Pandora does not have.
Goddess Pandora opened her eyes, looked at the world with her owl-like columnar golden pupils, and said with a joyful smile on her face.
"The humiliation that Europa has left me will end today."
After saying that, the goddess Pandora flapped her wings on her back, and her figure immediately turned into a black stream of light and flew towards the center of Crete.
Central Crete.
The war between Rhadamandis and Minos continued.
As the fierce fighting between Rhadamandis and Minos continues to this day, both Rhadamandis and Minos have understood that their strength is about the same and they cannot decide the winner in a short time.
"Radamandis, you are worthy of being a hero as famous as me. It's a pity that you will lose this battle."
After uttering the declaration of victory, Minos fought and prayed loudly.
"Great goddess Europa, please lend me your divine power so that I can defeat the enemies of Knossos."
As soon as Minos finished saying his prayer, the goddess Europa descended on the battlefield as a bull-headed goddess with a height of one thousand meters and two horns.
Radamandis said calmly.
"Minos, don't think that only your city of Knossos has the protection of the patron saint. Our city of Donia also has the protection of the goddess Pandora. Great goddess Pandora, I ask for your help to defeat the enemy in front of me."
Before Rhadamandis finished speaking, the goddess Pandora fluttered her wings and descended to the battlefield to confront the goddess Europa.
"Pandora——"
Europa looked at Pandora with a calm face and said.
"We haven't seen each other for hundreds of years."
"The trauma you left me in the past was so severe that it took me hundreds of years to heal."
Pandora said with a sneer.
"Europa, I have been dormant for so long, and finally when your strength weakens, I can pay back all the humiliation you left me."
Europa sighed and said.
"We are sisters living in Crete, why do we have to fight with each other? Don't you think we should join forces to fight against the gods outside Crete?"
"That sounds nice! Then are you willing to use Mount Idi in the center of Crete to divide your territory with me, and promise not to hinder the city of Donia from developing into a trade hub in the Aegean Sea?"
"Pandora——"
After hearing Pandora's request, Europa said with an ugly expression.
"Don't you understand that only the entire island of Crete, led by me and the city of Knossos, can unite all the city-states in Crete. You want to be on an equal footing with me, and the city of Donia wants to be on an equal footing with Knossos.
Competing for the position of the city as a trade hub will only disperse our power and prevent us from fighting against the gods outside Crete. The really smart way is to make me the only patron saint of Crete. I promise to make
You become my first subordinate god and have the most sacred status second only to me in Crete.”
"Do you think I'm a fool? You say so righteously, why don't you make me the only patron saint of Crete? I can also promise you that you will be my first subordinate god, and you will have the second-best
to my sacred status."
Pandora sneered and said sarcastically.
"Europa, if you are truly righteous in your heart, kneel down and surrender to me and become my subordinate god! If you said those words just to defend your own interests, then don't waste any more time and let us decide with our strength.
Take advantage of it!"
