Chapter 492: champion (1/2)
The archery competition continues in full swing.
In another group, Prince Hector was bending his bow and arrow, and focused on the distant bullseye.
”Ten rings.”
”The second arrow is still ten rings.”
The surrounding crowd shouted and cheered for the prince. Although Pei Ziyun's group was very warm, it was still far worse than Hector.
Prince Hector has always been excellent and he is a legitimate heir. City-states have such heroes and can continue to survive and develop, so the crowd cheers.
As for Pei Ziyun, she is just a shepherd. The results of the Ten Arrows and Ten Rings are very shocking, but it is just a dark horse, which cannot be compared with the worshippers of the Prince at all.
”In the archery preliminaries, shepherd Paris and Prince Hector were tied for the first place!” The news made the atmosphere of the audience suddenly reach a peak.
The crowd applauded Hector and Paris.
The news of the conference was the fastest to pass. This time, the news that Paris and Hector were tied for the first time in the archery preliminary round had longer wings and spread throughout the city.
The bard still sings wonderful ballads as usual, walking on the street step by step.
”Do you know, shepherd Paris won the first place in the two-hundred-meter race?” A vendor told a vendor.
”Oh, I said your news is outdated. I got the latest news. Paris and Prince Hector are tied for first place in the archery preliminaries.” The vendor told the news could not help showing off from a guest To the latest news.
The bard heard the conversation between the two vendors, and he couldn't help but pause. He lifted the sheepskin bag in his hand, filled it with a sip of wine, and said to himself, ”It seems that I really want to give this shepherd the gods care I wrote a poem. Besides, this time I showed my true ability to let the lucky shepherd know that choosing to cooperate with me was his wisest decision. ”
The bard carried away with a lambskin full of wine.
Temple of Zeus
This magnificent temple has a tall temple. The afternoon sun illuminates the mural, which depicts the story of praise to Zeus. The gods surround him, holding the golden cup in his hand and drinking the fine wine in it.
Numerous bronze and marble sculptures stand, mostly bare men and women, holding silver candlesticks, the floor is inlaid with precious wood, and a little further away is an orchard, where a spring flows.
The priest Kassandra visited here, and after a sudden whim, he turned to the field of archery. At this moment, the archery finals also kicked off in the crowd's exhausted shouts.
In the archery finals, a round is used to determine the outcome. Ten players will draw lots to determine the order of appearance.
This time, Pei Ziyun had good luck and was scheduled for the sixth appearance, while Prince Hector won the third pick.
The strength of the first two players can not be underestimated. Although not particularly amazing, each arrow has almost nine ring results, which shows that they are the best in the field of archery.
Soon it was Hector's turn to play. He pulled out a feather arrow in the quiver, bowed an arrow, fired an arrow, hit the bullseye, and then he took a second feather arrow, and shot it again. For the results of the ten rings, Hector made a series of nine arrows in one go, all of which were ten rings.
”Hector, Hector!”
The atmosphere of the stadium was instantly led to a climax. The crowd cheered and shouted for the prince. They were proud of having such a **** archer prince.
When Hector shot the last arrow, Pei Ziyun noticed a slight change. This was the feeling of the priest who had obtained it, but he had no idea what happened.
While watching Kassandra, covering her mouth for a moment, she saw the shadow of God.
In the sharp scream of ”噗”, the last arrow flew towards the target, but it seemed to encounter a bit of wind, so the final result deviated.
”Nine Rings” commander shouted.
Hector made a mistake on the last arrow and only hit the 9th ring. The crowd sighed and felt sorry for the prince, but Hector's score was already the first in the final.
”Hectol will never win first place in this match, because Paris must get the first introduction to the king, and this is the destiny determined by God!” Pei Ziyun thought to himself, in the original battle of Troy, Paris also won the first place in this archery competition, so even without Pei Ziyun's participation, Paris's first place is inevitable.
This made Pei Ziyun lament that the things decided by the gods are difficult to change forcibly, and even if it is as strong as Hector, he has to accept the arrangement of fate.
Pei Ziyun is not paying attention to the changes in the arena, but is fully prepared for the archery, winning the championship of the archery in one fell swoop.
Time passed quickly, and Pei Ziyun's turn came on in an instant. I saw Pei Ziyun took the bow and arrow and arrow pot slowly into the arena.
Although all the results of the Battle of Troy are known, the gods have carefully prepared the script, and this archery competition is no exception.
But Pei Ziyun's arrival is destined to break all of this. All details are striving for excellence, hoping to make some changes in the details, and finally all the subtle changes superimposed to form a huge change. This change is difficult for even the gods to overthrow, and ultimately it is acquiesced in its rationality.
At the moment, Pei Ziyun dismissed his thoughts, calmed his mind and aimed at the bullseye position, and fired his arrow.
”Hey, hey, hey!”
”First Arrow, Ten Rings”
