Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

According to the original mythological history, when the Greeks landed in Troy, they did not wait for the old Trojan king Priam to come to their aid; this kind-hearted neighbor took the initiative to come to the aid of his old friend.

Night had once taught Hector the lesson of the interdependence of lips and teeth, a lesson the King of Corona had clearly understood long ago.

If Troy hadn't consistently performed well in its war against Greece and even turned the tables on Troy, this old neighbor would probably have come to its aid long ago.

Looking at the mythology alone, it's not surprising that Cygnus has now joined the Trojans.

Not long ago, Ares, the god of war, almost destroyed Troy, leaving them suffocating.

It's perfectly normal for Cooknos to come and help now.

But when it comes to his background, things get a little strange...

He had just killed his father, Poseidon, the god of the sea.

Of course—some versions also say that the other party's father was Ares, the god of war.

But regardless of the version, there might be connections between the two mythologies.

Perfect timing—he chopped down both gods, and your two fathers were blasted to smithereens.

Any son with even a shred of affection would probably be thinking about how to kill him or offer him up to those two rotten sweet potatoes by now.

Even though he was a staunch ally of the Trojans, he was also the son of the gods, Cygnus, and he had ample reason to take action against the Night.

He had sufficient motivation to take action—

However, Ye did not rush to make a move. Killing an ally before confirming the other party's true intentions would be like Cao Cao's "I would rather betray the world than let the world betray me," where he killed his own uncles and their families. He was not that far-fetched in his paranoia.

And with Athena currently absent, unable to play the main account, and accompanied by two princesses who are unable to fight.

Just like in Ultraman, there's the normal Taro and the Super Taro who says, "Brothers, I want to play a round of Super Taro!"

With the help of his divine artifacts, he can now reach the level of Achilles and Hector in terms of combat power. If his physical body completes its growth and transformation, he should be able to reach the level of Heracles when he was on Earth.

That Greek mythology only had two kinds of heroes: one was Hercules, and the other was Hercules-level heroes among all the other heroes.

Commonly known as the version of the supermodel...

Although Ye still can't understand what kind of bug Hercules's arm strength, which was enough to support the sky, was.

Now, Night, who has just awakened, is already a top-tier hero.

With the added power of the sun's fire and the moon's radiance, even heroes of the same level with weak defenses would be instantly killed when they encounter him.

However, Cooknos happens to be the kind of hero who just passes the minimum standard.

Night prepared to wait until the situation had stabilized further before taking action, and at the same time, to see what Cooknos was up to and who was behind him.

Myths contain descriptions of this hero's battles.

Many people have overlooked this powerful hero.

The story says that when his army was in a hurry, they rushed to the battlefield and boldly and secretly surrounded the Greek camp.

The Greeks at that time were mourning their fallen heroes. They stood sadly by the fire, not holding any weapons, but focused on performing the cremation ceremony of Palotesilaus.

Suddenly, the Greeks found themselves surrounded by chariots and fully armed soldiers, and Cykenos launched a brutal and bloody massacre against them.

At this moment, Achilles, who was on another ship, rushed to the rescue with his soldiers.

At that time, Achilles rode his chariot, fully equipped with six divine weapons (chariot, sword, spear, shield, armor, and immortality). He originally thought he could be invincible as before, killing Cygnus as easily as killing a chicken. However, the invincible Achilles suffered a defeat at the hands of this hero.

The javelins he threw would bounce off Cygnus's chest, as Cygnus, like Achilles, possessed an invulnerable body.

He even gave Achilles a mocking smile: "Don't be surprised, son of the goddess. This is not my armor, nor my shield that blocked your spear. I wear these things merely as decoration, just as Ares, the god of war, sometimes wields his weapons merely as a game."

Ares has no need for weapons to protect his divine body. And so am I; even without my armor, you cannot harm me in the slightest.

You should know that I am not the son of an ordinary fairy, but the favorite of the sea god. The person before you is the son of Poseidon, the sea god!

Cykenos's words seemed to mock Achilles as merely the son of some unknown, ordinary nymph, while he himself was the son of the mighty sea god Poseidon.

Even if they both possess immortal bodies, they are not comparable.

He even claimed that his father could control Nereus, who was also a sea god, and his daughters.

However, he did not understand that his father's position as Lord of the Ocean was actually quite awkward, merely a hollow title.

Achilles' mother, though a sea nymph, was someone even Zeus had to respect.

In particular, why did Cygnus have to compare himself to that loser Ares, the god of war, to show off?

As everyone knows, Ares is either on the road to failing at showing off, or on the road to fleeing in panic after failing.

So, unsurprisingly, his final fate was tragic.

But at least at the beginning, he was actually on the offensive against Achilles.

His spear was thrown, nearly piercing Achilles's divine shield.

Nine of the ten layers of the divine bull's hide were pierced, which surprised Achilles and enraged him.

He drew his spear and threw it twice more, but neither could harm his opponent in the slightest.

Achilles was described as 'charging about like a bull attacking a red cloth that had been taunting it with its horns, but always missing its target.'

It felt like we were being completely played by the other party.

When he successfully threw his spear again, he was overjoyed to see the bloodstains on his opponent's shoulder, only to find that he had rejoiced too soon. It was not the blood of Cygnus, but the blood of his comrade-in-arms that had splattered onto his shoulder.

Achilles, full of fighting spirit, fought him in close combat. Even after breaking his divine sword, he could not harm him in the slightest. In despair, he raised his shield made of ten layers of cowhide and smashed it against the opponent's temple.

As a result, she managed to knock him unconscious with her force.

In the end, Achilles used his immense strength to strangle the son of the god to death, killing him by suffocation.

Even Achilles' divine artifacts couldn't break through its defenses. Achilles' divine artifacts have piercing properties, which shows that Cygnus's immortality level is even higher than Achilles'.

He never experienced the pain that Achilles suffered as a child, being burned by celestial fire and baptized by the River Styx.

Chapter 155 Shooting Down a Hundred Heads? Kratos and Hercules Protect You

What does Cooknos have?

He didn't even have a decent divine artifact.

He only inherited a portion of the divine blood, perhaps from the power of his father, Poseidon.

This allows it to ignore most of Achilles' attack methods.

This confirms what Ye thought before: those powerful gods were born with extraordinary bodies and did not need to strengthen their bodies with heavenly fire or the Styx River.

It's likely that all the gods possess immortal bodies and bodies of steel.

Unfortunately, Cygnus was too arrogant and careless. He stood still and let Achilles attack him, trying to show off his elegant and effortless control of the battlefield, just like the god of war.

Why imitate Ares? I'm calling him out again.

Because of his arrogance, the Greeks even retaliated after his death, plundering his country and taking his youngest son away.

He could have become famous on the battlefield like Achilles and Hector.

However, due to his arrogance, he died even younger than Achilles, without achieving any significant feats, thus wasting his immense talent.

As for talent, although the Steel Body is impervious to blades and spears, it is not truly immortal. It can withstand attacks from any sharp weapon in the world, but it cannot withstand blunt force trauma.

After thinking it over, Achilles was shot through the heel and died.

Clearly, both heroes like Achilles and Cygnus have a fatal weakness.

Although their skin is as hard as iron, their internal organs remain fragile.

Here's a joke: even an immortal person can be strangled to death.

Anyway-

In terms of actual combat power, it can be seen from mythology that the comparison of combat power levels among heroes is not absolute.

Comparatively speaking, they place more emphasis on compatibility, meaning that special attack is of paramount importance.

Once countered by the enemy hero, even a powerful hero like Achilles will become a powerless coward, only able to rage helplessly.

The reason why Achilles and Hector are considered the strongest is that, compared to other heroes, they have virtually no weaknesses. Their versatility allows them to switch combat stances freely against most heroes and achieve victory.

Night is also this kind of all-around hero, commonly known as a hexagonal warrior, with no weaknesses...

He figured that if he wanted to fight Cygnus, it might be more effective to just punch him. If Achilles could do it with his strength, there was no reason why he, with his even stronger wrists, couldn't.

Just hit him in the temple—you don't even need to strangle him; just throw him in the water and he'll suffocate.

If the son of the sea god could really die like that, it would certainly be a rather ironic and interesting scene.

At this moment, the hero Cygnus, who was completely unaware that his escort target—Griffith—had awakened, suddenly shivered and felt a deep sense of malice.

After the carriage traveled for some time, it finally arrived at a city.

This small city was clearly not Troy, which had great walls that even the gods could not cross.

"We've arrived... Go and ask the princesses to get out of the carriage," Cooknos ordered his subordinates, still unaware that Griffiths had already awakened.

But now that he's here, what happens next is no longer his concern.

Meanwhile, inside the carriage, Ye was stroking an ancient-looking bow and arrow, with an arrowhead bearing dark red marks that resembled dried blood.

That was something Philothetes left him before he left, possibly the armor that Hercules used during his lifetime.

According to the description in the myth—

After Hercules accomplished many heroic feats, the gods collectively bestowed upon him a series of gifts.

Hermes gave him a sword, Apollo gave him a bow, Hephaestus gave him a golden quiver, and Athena gave him a brand new bronze shield.

At that moment, the arrow in Ye's hand was taken out of the golden quiver.

So this must be the divine bow that Apollo gave to Hercules.

Kratos in the other universe also obtained this bow by chance, or rather, many of Kratos's heroic trials overlap with the Hercules storyline. Is this the real successor to his grandfather's ambition?

Night: 'Shoot down a hundred heads?'

If this weapon is indeed the divine artifact from Hercules' great deeds and achievements.

That bow and arrow set is no joke.

Hercules used it to kill the Hydra, the nine-headed serpent, which was the son of Typhon, the king of the Greek monsters, and Echidna, the mother of all monsters.

If Typhon's counterpart among the monsters is Zeus, then the Hydra's counterpart is the twelve Olympian gods.
