Chapter 1422: Showing True Power 1 (1/2)
Achilles' chariot wasn't an ordinary chariot.
The three horses that were responsible for pulling the cart of the chair were very special horses.
Two horses were immortal divine horses bestowed by the Greek sea god Poseidon to Achilles' father, Peleus, as a wedding gift, Xanthos and Balius, and the last horse might be worse than the other two was a ”fine and famous” great horse pillaged from a city, Pedasos.
Under the strength of three horses, once Achiless's chariot began to run, it broke to the speed of sound in an instant, and in a few seconds, it ravaged the entire battlefield with an extraordinary speed, trampling everything within its path!
If this chariot reached its maximum speed, it would be similar to a huge meteorite and no one could confront it.
In the legend, Achilles used this chariot and became undefeated on the battlefield of the Trojan War, dragging the dead enemy's corpse behind which eventually aroused the anger of the Gods.
Therefore, at the moment the majestic chariot descended from the sky, everyone could see only see that it was similar to a comet that was falling from the sky, showing how fast it was.
Without hesitation, Achilles used his Noble Phantasm!
”Troias Tragoidia (Troy's Tragedy): Tempestuous Immortal Chariot!”
Under Achiless's roar, the chariot carried an incomparable terrifying momentum, with a whistling and frantic air current, descending like lightning.
Under such momentum, Achilles didn't notice that an arrow, like a silver light across the night, soared into the sky, shooting silently.
*Swoosh!*
When Achilles noticed the arrival of the arrow, the arrow had already arrived in front of his eyes.
The arrow was less than five centimeters away from Achiless's eyeball.
”What?!”
Achilles was surprised.
The warrior's instinct caused Achiless's body to tighten instantly, and turned his head abruptly!
In the faint of tearing sound, the arrow flew towards the night sky and disappeared under the darkness.
Achilles was able to dodge that arrow, however, his cheek had been cut, and blood was flowing.
”My immortal body...!”
Achilles' complexion changed sharply and his expression became serious. His immortal body that was able to ignore all attacks other than an attack that contained Divinity was broken once again.
”In the Black Faction, there is another servant with Divinity?!”
Achilles' mind turned sharply, thinking who had shot out that arrow until a voice came into his ears.
”You shouldn't be in a daze in the middle of the battlefield, idiot!”
It wasn't a voice that carried an insult, but like the scolding of a teacher to his student.
”This voice...”
Achilles would never forget, or rather, it was impossible to forget about this voice.
When Achilles was still a young boy, he grew up under the teaching of his teacher and learned various things so he would never forget this voice.
”Teacher...?”
Achilles was full of shock, but he was being scolded again and being shot by three arrows in an instant.
*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* *Swoosh!*
Three arrows broke the wind, following Achiless's movement as if calculating the trajectory of Achiless's chariot, shooting toward Achiless's chest, flank, and shoulder at the same time.
The sharp part of the arrow stabbed into Achiless's skin and a tearing sound was heard.
However, Achilles ignored the shock and pain and quickly grabbed the reins of his chariot.
The three horses that pulled the chariot immediately let out a long hiss, and without hesitation stopped the downward rushing movement, and stopped in midair.
*Clang!* *Clang!* *Clang!*
A spear in his hand danced like a windmill, and the arrows that would shoot toward him all bounced off.
The sparks from the arrows falling from the spear seemed so conspicuous in the dark, but Achiless ignored all of that. While pulling the reins, he looked around impatiently and shouted.
”Where are you, teacher?!”
Achilles' shout immediately received a response.
”Come here, Achilles.”
When Achilles heard that voice, he suddenly turned his head and looked at the source of that sound. Immediately afterward, he saw it, in front of the forest in the distance, a figure was leaping at very fast speed, like a mighty lion rushing towards the forest.
