The terrain of the Kingdom of Thebia is different from that of Mycenae. It is mostly composed of hills and wasteland. These ordinary small villages are built on the wasteland with a relatively flat terrain. The surrounding hills are undulating. Often they can only be reached by climbing a slope.
See the scene close at hand.
Although the land is barren and barren, it is adjacent to the majestic Eurotas River, and coupled with the irrigation of a large number of branch streams, the Kingdom of Thebia has formed a subsistence and clothing scene that is incompatible with the barren land.
Along the way, Kratos met many Thebean civilians. They carried containers made of clay or wood, away from the village, and went to streams to contain water.
Due to the uneven hilly location, there is not much wasteland that allows the construction of villages, so many civilians in the village need to carry containers on their backs and travel to distant places to collect enough water.
Despite this, due to the lack of attacks from wild beasts and monsters, and being far away from oppressive classes such as nobles, the life of the common people living on the edge of Thebia seems quite peaceful and peaceful.
But this peaceful scene suddenly changed before our eyes. The sudden changes in the cold climate continued to blow in from the direction of the barren land, just like a hole was drilled through the originally airtight barrier, and disaster
Everything was vented through this hole.
Kratos stood on a slope. In front of him was a scene of raging floods. The hills and wasteland had turned into a vast ocean. In his sight, he could still see where a small village should have been.
Swallowed by the flood, many messy building debris and corpses floated on the water, including Thebean soldiers wearing leather armor.
Scattered civilians of Thebia who survived the disaster stood on the higher hills with dull faces, or knelt down and prayed devoutly to the gods, confessing their non-existent sins and begging the gods above.
It can save them from sudden disasters.
The Kingdom of Thebia, which had not suffered any disaster for hundreds of years and was able to resist even the invasion of the underworld, was suddenly attacked by natural and man-made disasters at the same time.
In Kratos's black eyes, you can see the souls of countless dead wailing in the flood. A large number of red souls are mixed with the dead, forming a scene like hell on earth.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Kratos couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart, but he regained his composure in an instant, and his heart was as cold and ruthless as frozen ice.
It is conceivable that the top leaders of the Kingdom of Thebia were caught off guard by such a huge change. A large number of troops were dispatched to the border to prepare for enemies that might appear at any time.
However, the territory is in chaos, and a large number of civilians have died with no one paying attention. Even if they are lucky enough to survive the disaster, they will eventually die because of losing their homes and food.
After seeing the chaotic scene in front of him, Kratos no longer hesitated. The majestic blood surged out of his body, and finally condensed into a gray griffin with feathers like metal.
Kratos jumped onto the back of the gray griffin, which immediately spread its wings, soared straight into the sky with a rotating hurricane, and then quickly leapt across the flooded land.
Now Kratos hopes that the third prince will fall into the hands of the Kingdom of Thebia. In this way, he may use violence to break through the military formation and rescue him, but if he falls into a monstrous flood, the third prince will
With the strength of Arthur Evans, there is no possibility of survival.
Thinking of this, Kratos immediately changed direction. There is no point in searching further. If Arthur Evans really fell into the area affected by the flood by accident, then what he would find in the end would only be a meaningless body.
body, it would be better to return to the tense border on the other side and try to find traces of the third prince from the Theban army.
The Kingdom of Thebia is only about 1/5 the size of Mycenae, and most of the land is uninhabited hills and mountains. It only took Kratos most of a day to complete a return flight and serve as the army's camp.
When it appeared in sight, the sky was completely immersed in the darkness of night.
At this time, the size of the Theban army was larger than that of a day ago. About 20,000 soldiers were gathered on the border. This was already equivalent to 1/10 of the total population of the Kingdom of Thebea and half of the total army.
And Kratos saw through the sharp eagle eyes of the gryphon that there were also bright fireworks on the other side of the Eurotas River. It seemed that the Mycenaean station was also aware of the movement here and took corresponding actions.

The tense atmosphere of the war was about to break out. If it weren't for the insurmountable divine punishment lying in the middle of the two countries, this place would have been a battlefield littered with corpses.
Just when Kratos was about to take advantage of the darkness and get closer before landing, a roar that shook the world exploded from the camp of the Theban army. When Kratos was dizzy, a huge arm flew into the wind.
Get up and catch him with overwhelming force.
Such a powerful force, the size of the palm is impossible to dodge!
Although it is not as good as the three-headed giant Geryon, it at least has the equivalent of 800 horsepower and can destroy an ordinary village with one palm.
Kratos reacted quickly. He bent his legs, and his powerful physical strength suddenly exploded. His whole body was ejected from the back of the gray griffon. Through rapid vibration of the muscles throughout his body, his strength actually increased by 2.5 times.
Originally, the limit that Kratos' body could withstand was to increase his strength by 2 times through vibrating his muscles. However, after the mutation in the Barrens, his physical fitness was greatly strengthened, and now he can actually increase his strength to 2.5 times.
In the end, Kratos actually burst out with a full 1,250 horsepower, breaking through to a terrifying power that only a strong man with a thousand enemies can possess!
Kratos punched hard into the giant palm that covered the sky. Violent loud noises and vibrating air waves were vented in mid-air towards the surroundings. All the soldiers in the ground military camp were immediately awakened.
, a large number of war horses neighed in fear, and people stood up and ran around, causing quite a commotion for a while.
The giant palm stagnated in the air and shattered into bubbles all over the sky in the blink of an eye. Kratos also fell at an extremely fast speed due to the huge recoil. Even the gray gryphon wanted to catch it, but it had to rush.
It failed, and finally hit the ground heavily, splashing a large amount of crushed rocks and soil.
Wow...
In the huge pothole, Kratos smashed the soil and climbed up. He took a deep breath to stabilize the surging blood in his body, then turned his head and looked at the direction of the giant palm with flickering eyes.
.
A series of firelights left the camp and moved quickly towards the direction where Kratos fell. It was obvious that after the strong men in the military camp took action, these soldiers came to check whether he was alive or dead.
Although the owner of the giant palm just now cannot reach the level of a thousand enemies, he has at least 800 horsepower, which is not far behind even when compared with the eldest prince Aluband.
Moreover, the giant palm made of a large amount of blood made Kratos smell the aura of violence and bloodthirst. It was not the dazzling nature of the gods, but the filth of being as depraved as a monster.
In this world, the gods are aloof and enjoy the faith of countless mortals, but they do not grant rewards easily. Only those who are truly favored by the gods can hear the voices of the gods and receive corresponding feedback.
I don’t know since when, in order to gain strength, human beings turned to praying to some evil gods or famous monsters, and actually received corresponding feedback.
The strong Theban man who took action just now obviously believed in some evil god or monster, and judging from the ability to condense blood into a huge body, it was probably some kind of monster with the blood of a giant.
Although Kratos' power is huge, with a full 1,250 horsepower, due to the lack of feedback from the power of gods or monsters, he only relies on pure physical strength, so he does not take any advantage in the collision with the opponent's giant palm with only 800 horsepower.
But he got a glimpse of the opponent's details from the collision just now. If his guess was correct, the strongest man in the Theban army at this time was only an enemy of a hundred people. Although his power reached 800 horsepower, he was infinitely close.
A strong man who can stand against a thousand enemies.
And the person who suddenly plotted against the eldest prince Alubond who left the barren land and caused the blooming sun to fall from the sky was probably the owner of the giant palm just now.
Kratos sneered in his heart. Even the glory of the gods would be trampled by him, let alone the monsters that were spurned and enslaved by the gods. In this way, he would forcefully break into the military camp to search for traces of Arthur Evans.
I feel a little more confident.
Hundreds of Theban soldiers, led by an officer with the strength of a hundred enemies, quickly came to the huge hole made by Kratos. When they threw the burning torches in their hands into the darkness of the hole, a whole body
A huge monster with cold scales suddenly appeared in their sight.
Crush!
The war pigs suddenly erupted and rushed out of the pit. The officer who had the strength of a hundred-man enemy only had time to draw out his sword to resist before he was knocked flying out. The war horse under his seat killed dozens of soldiers behind him.
They were crushed into flesh and goo at the same time, leaving only miserable wreckage all over the ground.
Kratos fell from the sky, landed on the officer, and crushed his head with one kick. A large number of rich blood souls rose from the corpses everywhere, and he devoured the last bite. (To be continued)
