Pivot of the Sky
Chapter 299 300. Conflict unavoidable
With Philip II occupying Delphi, it is naturally impossible to publicly proclaim the conquest of the soldiers, but in two names: first, to sacrifice to the gods and to ask them to bless Hitton's cities and states to unite; and second, to ask the Fathers of the gods to bless all Hitons and expel the forces of the Potts Empire from the Hitton Peninsula. Of course, the King must bring his guard, except that Philip II brought a larger guard with him this time, with a fully integrated regiment.
Philip II named this corps, formed and trained in an entirely new way, the Delphi Legion, and he has made clear his intention - Santa Delphi of Heaton United Kingdom - to be under the guardianship of this corps in the future.
At present, Delphi is in the hands of the Kibada Alliance, and attacking Delphi will certainly encounter resistance from the coalition forces of the cities and states led by the Kibadas. But Philip II chose a very good time, with a limited number of elite Kibada fighters attacking the Aaron Alliance in the South, unable to draw the main force to fight Macedonia, and loose coalitions in other cities are not rivals of the Delphi Legion.
Philip II's actions were indeed strongly protested by the Kibadas, who denounced the Macedonians as the aggressors of the Holy Land. In the ancient tradition of the United Kingdom of Heaton, Delphi is a nominally shared sanctuary of the cities and states, and all those who attack it are common enemies of the states.
The Kibadas called on the coalition of city and state organizations to fight Macedonia and themselves drew a modest army to come. The State of Aaron, which is fighting against Kibada, while not sending troops to Delphi, has publicly condemned the "crime” of Philip II's encroachment on the Holy Land.
Alexander, who stayed in Macedonia, was very worried about the news, the suspicion that the Horseman newsletter would not be able to grasp the situation on the front line in a timely manner, and the safety of his father. He knew that he had asked Amon not to move, so he asked Shentong's vast Medanzo to quietly explore the situation on the front line. He did not ask Medanzo to participate in the battle, just tell him the situation in a timely manner.
Ammon said to Medanzo, "In that case, you should go. You don't have to show up, you don't have to do it, and you have to tell me what happened there. Since I cannot be a god here, nor am I a god here, I cannot use the means of the gods to understand things that are so far away. But I feel that this is not only a war between men, but that the Olympus gods are bound to intervene. ”
About half a month after Medanzo was ordained, the war reports on the front line had returned to Macedonia, Philip II's army had won, occupied and controlled Delphi, and the Delphi regiment formed by Alexander had become famous. Alexander was finally relieved and overjoyed, but he couldn't help but start worrying about Medanzo again as Medanzo did not return.
After more than a decade of genius, Medanzo returned to Macedonia, where the ninth god descended from the sky and went directly to Aristotle to meet Amon. Amon asked, "What happened, did you delay it so long? ”
Medanzo sighed with a palpitation: "Oh, my God, that's terrible! Delphi lost dozens of angels in the war!” He did not say much, but printed what he saw directly into Ammon's soul with information theology ——
As Amon had previously predicted, Alexander's new method of warfare was a military revolution, with the new battlefront emphasizing the strength of a disciplined and integrated army. The Resistance Army (RRA), which arrives in the cities and states, is a collapsed army with absolute advantages over the number, discipline and level of training.
Three hundred fighters from the city of Kibada arrived last, who thought they could easily win. But this battle was no longer the Battle of Hot Springs of the year, the federated forces of the cities that cooperated in the battle had collapsed, and 300 Kibada fighters could not take advantage of their personal combat power in the face of a formidable line of Macedonian troops like a moving barrel of guns.
They wanted to retreat to the narrow rearrangement front at high altitudes, but the Macedonian two-wing cavalry had cut off the retreat and the infantry Square had pushed ahead to destroy all the Kibada fighters. The battle between the urban and state armies was so smooth that Philip II easily won, but another unknown battle took place in an extraordinarily violent manner.
Santa Delphi is made up of many temples built on the hillside, where the gods of Olympus almost all have temples, including even those ancient before the Gods' War, which are not seen in other cities of Hilton. In a sense, the Olympus Divine System can be seen as a large divine system containing many small divine systems.
The fact that the Olympus gods do not appear directly in the struggle between the nations of the earth does not mean that they will not intervene; the easiest way is to order those gods in the world to do so. In such a sensitive incident of the occupation of Santa Delphi, the divine messengers, who could not hide themselves on a weekday basis and focused exclusively on cultivating their original power, appeared.
Medanzo, who watches in secret, finds that many gods usually hide in the temple as priests, and that at least one god guards every god in Delphi. Such a god does not necessarily attract attention, nor does it necessarily have a high status, such as a powerful nine-level god in the Temple of Apollo, who is usually a common bottom priest who manages light candles.
Philips II's military actions sparked the contradictions of the Olympus gods, and there was support for their opposition, and the gods did not direct their actions, but sent them to carry out a war of confusion. The battle unfolded at a height not far from the summit of Delphi, with many gods falling, even Medanzo, who had experienced a lot of great positions, was shocked.
Medanzo is also a Class IX god, who is better able to appreciate the cruelty of this battle. It is a rare fortune to be guided by the power of the source, to have the possibility to pass the test of living life, and even to have the opportunity to transcend eternity. So these gods seldom struggle with mortals, and each other is accustomed to solving problems by covenant like gods, but this time the events are completely different.
According to Macedonian warfare records, Philip II entered Delphi to deliver his speech with a thunderbolt formation on the top of a mountain in the distance, a symbol of the blessings of the gods to Macedonia and to all the Hitons. And from what Medanzo saw with his own eyes, it was actually the gods who were making the scene!
The clash lasted until the end of the fighting between Macedonia and the confederates of the cities and cities, and eventually all the undisciplined angels stopped at the same time, confronting each other at high altitude for several days, and then withdrew from the battlefield. Perhaps it was the gods who saw the divine messenger's loss too heavy to fight on, after all, it was not easy to guide a suitable divine messenger, or it was the Olympus gods who reached compromises or new agreements, which were beyond Medanzo's knowledge.
Amon also saw that mixed war in the message from Medanzo, and the scene was truly quite grim, and even the god of transcendence was in it, it was hard to guarantee that he would not fall. He was also shocked by the fact that the Olympus Divine System was far more powerful than he had previously thought and was merely a messenger in the midst of this conflagration, with several achievements and powers not under Medanzo, and some of them had fallen.
They are supposed to be the elite forces of the Olympus gods, though not all of them, but they are a little more powerful than all the gods guided by Ammon's kingdom after its integration with Anunaki and the Nine Kingdoms. Although Ammon does not fully understand the Olympus gods, the power of the Divine Envoy exceeds Ammon's expectations.
Amon frowned and asked Medanzo: "The message you showed me seems incomplete, there are so many powerful gods present, and the gods in heaven must be paying attention. You may also snoop around during a mixed war, and when they end the mixed war at high altitude confrontation, how can they not find you? You must have been exposed. How did you get back? ”
Medanzo replied with some embarrassment: "It was hard to say how embarrassing it was. I was discovered, so I ran away, but some of the gods had touched me and tried to keep me. Fortunately one of them knew me and didn't do anything to stop me, so I took the opportunity to walk away. ”
Amon: “Who would know you? ”
Medanzo cautioned: "Have you forgotten? Haven't you followed Lord Schrödinger to the Olympus Divine College? I met him, and I heard Lord Schrödinger's voice in my soul - you didn't intervene, go! ”
Amon was surprised: "Schrödinger spoke too? Looks like the Olympus gods are watching, too. You can't escape their eyes. ”
Medanzo said with no worries: "My God, I always felt something was wrong! The Olympus gods made the battle so fierce, then suddenly stopped, surely it was the gods in heaven who made some kind of deal. Philip II's behavior was obviously guided by the Zeus Oracle, which really stabbed Mahoney's nest!
And you've always been in Macedonia, and the Olympus gods can't be without ideas. If we had nothing to do with this, I'm afraid we're not telling the truth, and the gods won't believe it. I fear that you are being exploited by Zeus, who uses you to divert the contradictions of the gods and achieve his own ends. Don't you think it's too smooth for us to enter the Olympian realm and that life is too peaceful? ”
Amon frowned again: “I had a deal with Zeus that I couldn't act as a god here, and I promised to work with him to reunify the Heaton Peninsula, and the Kingdom of Macedonia was the choice. After that, the story of Marduk will be repeated, integrating the divine domains of the heavenly pivot continent, and my aim is simply to find the way in the search for proof.
If he used me, I used him too. If the Olympus gods had really reached a new deal, transferring the contradiction that broke out to me, I would have asked for it myself, and I would have faced it. Medanzo, it's been a long time since you've had a real fight. It's all about watching people fight with a cold eye, and occasional interference is just fun. If you were really involved, would you be scared? ”
Medanzoyan frowned: “Afraid? When was I ever scared?” Then I couldn't help but sigh: “My God, you are so right! It is true that days of calm have been too long, and calm has left me with little to feel the conflict within me. It was not until today that I saw with my own eyes the fallen of those gods that I realized that the challenges faced were far from over and that I had not felt so alarmed in a long time. ”
Not only is Medanzo emotional, but Amon himself is caught in contemplation. Since the creation of Heaven, does Amon seem to have no idea what he should do? Perhaps nothing needs to be done, just enjoy eternity in heaven like so many gods; perhaps there is much more to be done, because his kingdom is not perfect and the world created in his soul can be more colorful.
But beyond the achievements of the Creator, Amon did not fulfill his original vows, and he was no different in essence from the gods he despised and ridiculed. That's why Amon left Salem City to go to the Heaton Peninsula, to start a whole new experience, to pursue unknown paths in the process, and to gain a lot of new insights.
Indeed, as Medanzo said, since Amon came to the Heaton peninsula, it has been unusual for him to feel completely different from before, to live too calmly, to experience little conflict in calm. Neither man nor god is so calm, the Olympus gods have broken out and there must be some conflict with him.
At that point, a servant briefed the door: "Mr. Amon, someone wants to see you. ”
"Who is it?" asked Amon Lang. ”
The servant replied, "She's a big girl, she's beautiful, she calls herself Schrödinger. That's a strange name. Does Mr. Amon know her? ”
Amon got up quickly and said, "Get her in here!” Then went to Medanzo: “Go to the palace, Alexander has been worried about you. ”
Medanzo: “I'm going to the palace without interrupting your meeting with her. … she is definitely the first to come here, must be trying to tell you something, we should also be careful about the Olympus gods. ”
Medanzo left and walked right past the door with the Goddess of Artemis, not forgetting to greet her. Amon greeted the door with a smile: "Schrödinger, if you want to see me, just come straight to the door. Why should I be informed? ”
Artemis did not smile and said with his face: "You are here as a mortal, and I come to see you as a mortal, of course.” As he spoke, he waved his hand, covering the room with magic, isolating the inner and outer voices, and even the gods could not spy on the conversation between the two.
Amon asked her to sit down and approached her and said, "You should be aware of the war between cities and states, and I have heard of the conflict between the Olympus messengers. Did you come to me today to announce a decision on behalf of the Olympus gods? ”
Artemis glared at him: "Of course not. I am not here on behalf of the gods! Just because I care about you, I come to warn you before the gods get in your way. ”
Ammon still laughed, "The Olympus gods want my trouble? I've always kept my word, never acted as a god, never offended them?... Schrödinger, why do you keep your face on the door? I thought you were deporting me on behalf of the gods. ”
