Me, Hydra

Upon hearing that, Quintus left his mouth open, but even then he did not speak out to refute it. Although relying on the Great Formation and the spiritual unity of the Spartan Praetorian Army, Quintus could have a way of thinking as well as attacking that surpassed common sense. But that didn't cover up the shortcomings of numbers.

Just for one Hercules alone it took such intense energy and was eventually rescued by Perseus....

"If both frontal combat and logistical line sabotage cannot be used...then our chances of winning will be infinitely suppressed...What a surprise...the snowy winter has sealed the mountains...I had thought they wouldn't be until at least next spring Out to the army. I didn't expect them to have set out to conquer us this fall. Aren't they afraid of the snow sealing the mountains and then being divided and swallowed by us?"

Hearing Quintus' words, Leonidas shook his head.

"The Great Lord of Hydra told me that this war is purely between Sparta and the Greek states, in other words the Olympians behind them cannot fight. That is to say, even the wintry gods must follow the changes in the heavens for snowfall and thus cannot take sides... but they are taking this risk to invade Sparta... it's really puzzling.... "

Shaking her head, Hippolyta curtsied.

"The western gate I'm guarding is fine, but relying on the military god's belt my father gave me, the 30,000 soldiers under my command can perform at 1.5 times their fighting strength without any problems in terms of defense alone... Atta, how's it going over there?"

Upon hearing this, Atalanta, who had been silent, shook her head.

"Although I see that there are forty thousand soldiers guarding the east gate, half of those forty thousand soldiers are old and infirm, and those with the ability to fight frontally should only be twenty thousand strong. However, relying on the moat and Shoucheng's facilities, it's a bit tough, but it's still within tolerance."

The east and west gates had already divided Sparta's 80,000 troops by 70,000, if it wasn't for the fact that there was a narrow plain just in front of the main city gate, the Lion Gate plus having the living power of 300 forbidden troops, the crowd would have gone to the Underworld to have tea with Ares by now....

After a moment's thought, Leonidas suddenly said.

"If we are facing a coalition of Greek nations, can we keep them at bay by expanding the internal contradictions of their various armies? You know, fighting over faith, they're not as peaceful as we are here."

At the words, Atalanta, who was on the other side of the room, shook her head.

"Have you not seen the round figure beside the priests in their army? You may not understand the situation on the Greek side, but I do. In the army, the Greeks would hold up the patron saints of their city-states. For the Greeks, the war between city-states was not only a war between men, but also a struggle for faith between gods. They believed that they fought on the battlefield in the name of the gods, and that the patron god of their city would not only bless and protect them, but that the gods themselves would join the battle against the patron gods of the opposing city. The declaration of war between men also represented a declaration of war between gods, and as men fought, so did the gods. Thus if man makes a covenant, God is also making a covenant at the same time. To signify this, the two parties to the covenant would allow each other's citizens to participate in their own god's rituals, and there would also be a statue or round statue of the two gods holding hands to commemorate this covenant of the gods."

"And the round statue in their hands would look like Mount Olympus, in other words, they would be representing the unanimous will of the gods this time. Breaking them from within is simply a fantasy..."

As the title suggests, the book is also officially on the shelves....

It's on the shelf....

In fact, there is nothing to say, after all, as a TJ has more than plural novels of the budding author, code novels this kind of thing is also commonplace.......

Anyway, because I still have school, updates are done during class or on weekends, and I don't have time to review typos because I'm pressed for time, so I usually make changes only when readers point them out in inter-posts....

I'm sure you've developed a resistance to the "I feel like I'm watching a pirated copy even though it's the original" feeling.

Just get used to it.

Just fine....

The book is still mainly about various myths, so various myths such as Persian and Egyptian will be added later. And at a later stage, it may also add Communist Heaven and Classical Eastern mythology (Hao Tian God)....

To be fair, the odds of a story like Communist Heaven debuting might be a bit low....

So there is a certain chance that it won't make an appearance. As for the oriental mythology, don't bring in the flood novel setting and the Jade Emperor.

This is Hao Tian God, not Jade Emperor Zhang Bai Ren. So don't bring in the post-Song Dynasty setting.

Anyway all settings are explained according to this book.

To be honest, there is a possibility that the book's vibe will not be fully debuted until the ending. Recently, I've been working on Indian, Egyptian and Persian myths. They will make their appearance in the middle of the book.

Regarding the Eastern mythology I'm setting it before the pre-Qin mythology, that is, the mythology that starts with the first days of Tai Chi, Hao Tian God, Emperor, Hou Tu Huang Di, Gou Shou Shen Ren, Minister Wei, Fuxi, Dong Huang Tai Yi, Shoulder Wu, Zhuan Xu, Yu Qiang, Lao Cheng Zi, Nui Yi, Huang Di, Pot, Lie Zi, Guang Cheng Zi, Long Bo, and all the other gods and demons. Do not bring in the Jade Emperor.

This is also to prevent you all from tearing yourselves apart over the strength of Eastern mythology....

Anyway, Saturday pop-up, today's update will be sent out in the afternoon and evening.

If it's okay with you guys, you can order an auto-subscribe, especially if you're waiting to fatten up....

Above all, all of us together.

Volume 1: Text-106-Home has a hard time of it.

After a few days of suppression, Leonidas and the others once again skirmished with Perseus.

This time the encounter Perseus was clearly much more cautious than before, and this was evident from their formation.

In order to block the conical formation of the forbidden guards, it was obvious that scattered extraordinary people could be seen among the Greek allied forces.

Blending in among the ordinary soldiers for blocking, this conical formation assault caused a great impact....

But even so, relying on city defending equipment that surpassed this era, Mycenae remained strong enough to carry the attack....

Dark red blood coalesced into a puddle next to Quintus' chainblade, which had shown signs of solidifying over time, even if a human stepped on it, it wouldn't pick up the slightest splash.

"How many men did we lose."

"Fine, more than three hundred defenders killed in action, and a few dozen with a bit of color on them if they're forbidden. But it's nothing serious..."

At the words, Quintus frowned and finally sighed in frustration.

"Just, that's to be expected..."

No matter how tough the Spartan army was, it was still mortal flesh. Facing soldiers several times their own, even with the addition of formation, there were too many heroic figures on the other side, so it was only reasonable that they would suffer some injuries.

Although they had lost more than three hundred men, but relying on the defensive equipment and the aid of the forbidden formation, this skirmish had almost defeated about fifteen hundred of the opponent's men. Although Quintus and the others spurned the gods, there were times when one had to admit that faith was truly blindingly powerful....

"The Greek offensive has been getting more and more intense, and although we've only got a few brothers to show for it this time, we're not sure when we'll be reduced next time. And if it weren't for the cloak behind us, we would have been able to keep fighting. Maybe how the Lion's Gate was breached by the enemy."

"That said, it's a different story when it can be fixed."

As he said that, Leonidas looked to the large sandbox beside him.

"The other side is obviously ready for a long war, and they've built another improvised fortress about ten miles north of us. And there's a guard post every hundred meters. This is not to mention their hidden outposts ... ... logistical stability, unity of purpose and extraordinary strength. I didn't expect the Spartan Praetorian Army to encounter something so tricky on their first battle."

Hearing Leonidas' words, Quintus also nodded in deep sympathy, but Quintus quickly put that thought out of his mind and instead said with a faint smile, "Wouldn't that be better? Once they are defeated, that soft bunch in Greece will know how hard the Spartans' will is and how sharp their spears are!"

At the news, Leonidas nodded as well.
