Firstly, they found Achilles' son, who was living in seclusion on the island of Scyrus.

Secondly, find the great hero Philolettetes.

Thirdly, find and steal the statue of Athena treasured in Troy.

In ancient Greek mythology, before every major war began, the kings of various factions would seek the help of prophets to predict whether they would ultimately win the war.

Whoever's prophecy is more accurate and more effective will often become the ultimate winner.

It must be said that Troy was exceptionally gifted in this regard.

Not only does it include Princess Kasandra, whose prophetic abilities are so powerful that she almost thwarted the Trojan Horse plot.

There were also prophets who were captured by the Greeks during the Ten Years' War.

They managed to extract the three necessary factors from him.

Afterwards, Odysseus, with his silver tongue, successfully made all three seemingly impossible conditions come true, and unsurprisingly, Greece ultimately triumphed.

however--

In this Trojan War that has been completely transformed.

Especially now that Odysseus, the 'true protagonist' who will later develop the Odyssey story, has been imprisoned.

These three conditions are even more difficult to achieve.

At the same time that Cassandra made her prophecy in Troy.

On the Greek side, they also learned from the captured Trojan prophet the three necessary prerequisites for achieving final victory.

The first of these three prophecies originally foretold that after Achilles' death, the Greeks would lack a strong military force, and that Pyrrhus, who had grown up at this time, would fill the void of high-level military power that Greece lacked after his father's death.

This warrior, who later changed his name to Neopotlemus, meaning "young warrior," was not as powerful as his father Achilles, but he was invincible on the battlefield and killed many Trojan heroes.

After the fall of Troy, he committed many cruel acts, such as throwing Hector's youngest son to his death and throwing him off the city wall in front of Hector's wife.

For example, he beheaded the old king Priam and killed the beautiful princess Polyxena, sacrificing her to his deceased father Achilles as a concubine.

However, after some discussion, the heroes realized that this powerful and brutal warrior was still just a... little kid?

This prophecy was clearly premature for Greece.

As for the great hero Philolettetes, he had just given the divine bow to Griffith when he ran away, and who knows where he went.

We can't exactly go to Hercules to ask for people, can we?

If they knew that Philotectetes' divine bow was the key to killing Paris, and that the bow, not the man, was more important, they would certainly have done it no matter what—

Well, even if they knew, there was nothing they could do about Griffith.

then--

Of the three prophecies, only the last one seems plausible. It appears that the only thing we can do now is to go to Troy and steal the statue of the goddess Athena.

The statue of Athena was given to Troy by Athena at the beginning of the city's founding. It contains true divine power and is a special building that can protect Troy.

Athena and Troy were still in their honeymoon period at that time, which is why she left this power as a testament.

Athena will not take back the statue casually; it is up to the mortal heroes to handle it themselves.

However, Diomedes and Odysseus, who were in charge of this matter in the myth, have now either run away or been imprisoned as criminals.

For a time, there really wasn't a suitable candidate to choose from within the Greek camp.

Not to mention, Athena now seems to be showing signs of rebelling and joining the Trojan camp, otherwise why would even her follower Diomedes have disappeared?

At this moment, in the tent led by the God of War, after hearing the three necessary conditions for victory...

Feeling extremely troubled, Ares spoke directly: "...Even without relying on fate, I will achieve victory through my own strength!"

However, Ares dismissed the prophecy and did not intend to follow it.

If Ye knew what he was thinking, she would definitely give him a thumbs up.

He truly is a war god who gets tricked wherever he goes.

It might be a lucky thing that we didn't become teammates.

But at that moment, a divine power descended, and Eris's voice appeared in the mind of Ares, the god of war.

"No, Ares... ignore the first two prophecies."

However, we could send someone to steal the statue of Athena.

“Eris…? What brings you here?” Ares frowned.

Eris thought maliciously, 'Of course I'm here to see if there's any way I can continue to use you as a tool.'

I just got a hard lesson from Griffith.

Eris was injured again, and this time the injury was not comparable to the slight counterattack when she was protected by Artemis's arrow last time.

That's right, the fake Athena who was pierced by Artemis' arrow with Hercules' bow was her.

It was shot straight through.

This injury was so severe that she was no longer able to suppress the divine power of the statue in Troy.

Not only was Eris unable to suppress Athena herself, but he couldn't even defeat one of her statues, which made him feel quite ashamed.

They also yearn to truly become one of the twelve main gods and obtain the authority and power of the God of War.

This setback forced her to seek Ares's help once again.

However, she didn't expect to hear something so interesting right away: stealing idols?

This would solve her problem and even make the battlefield more chaotic.

and--

Eris's power to see into people's hearts came into play once more. She looked at King Agamemnon of Mycenae among the many heroes in the tent, and then a dangerous, mad smile suddenly appeared on her lips.

Eris smiled—it seemed she had discovered something interesting.

That Griffith is actually...

An undercover agent?!

Ah, ah, my dear hero, Griffith...

I love you so much, yet you are so cruel, hurting me again and again, repeatedly pushing away the goddess who just wanted to be close to you.

Then don't blame me for being impolite...

This is the only hero who can make Eris suffer defeat, and defeat him multiple times.

Neither Poseidon's son, nor Athena's warriors, nor even Apollo could see through her disguise, but you alone—

Griffiths—you always catch me so off guard.

This pain was an unprecedented and novel experience.

it hurts--!

But I want you even more now, Griffith.

Since I can't fool you with disguise—(After two failed attempts at disguise, Eris gradually realized that what she was best at seemed to be useless against that hero.)

So--

You can see through my disguise, but can other mortals?

When you are in unbearable pain because of slander, rumors, or even betrayal by your companions, only I can save you then. Will you obey me this time, my dear Griffith?

Eris seemed to have imagined something, and she began to look forward to it.

Chapter 162 Because I believe in him, so—run!

Even across vast distances of time and space, the goddess Eris's commands can still reach, remotely controlling this battlefield.

If you were to ask why she could do things that many gods couldn't—

There's only one answer: conflict!

Where there is strife and discord, there is Eris.

Human history is a history of blood and tears, a process of constantly repeating the same mistakes, igniting wars until the end of the world.

Perhaps because Ares is not powerful, everyone underestimates just how terrifying the power of war truly is, and how high its limits are.

Back on the night side, when his arrow killed the goddess 'Athena'.

What followed was Hercules and Diomedes, who were enraged.

The goddess is fake...

Not only did Night realize this, but when Night spoke to such an extent and defeated the incredibly weak 'Athena' in one blow, the Chryseis sisters, who had personally witnessed just how powerful Night was when infused with Athena's divine power, also immediately realized the truth.

Even another outsider woman present regained consciousness.

But Hercules and Diomedes seemed oblivious to the flawed disguise they had just made.

Chryseis tried to persuade the two to stop their attack.

Night: "It's no use... Their mental state is very off right now. The only way to calm them down is to use some harsh physical methods."

They watched as the Trojan queen and Diomedes, their eyes red with rage, stared at each other.

Night transformed the divine arrow that had flown back earlier into a longsword.

Within this temple, which is confined to a limited area and protected by the goddess's divine power, a longsword is clearly more useful than a spear.

Although Ye is no longer the same person he used to be, and is fully confident in defeating Diomedes, he still has to consider the other's identity...

For Athena's sake, he wouldn't kill Diomedes.

The goal is to protect the Chryseis sisters from Diomedes's berserk state without killing them, but merely to defeat or stun them.

A sentence flashed through Ye's mind—

The power to step over an ant without killing it is very difficult to master.

If the divine artifacts could be unleashed here, even without Athena's divine power, the power of the sun god's fire alone would be more than Diomedes, a mere mortal, could withstand.

For most heroes, low armor is a fatal flaw.
