Think of this.
The hatred of all Thracians for the Thracian king.
It's even more serious.
However, at least we are still alive now, which makes us much luckier than our compatriots who died in the battle.
Their supplies were almost gone, and the supplies they carried were only enough for three or four days. And the place where they were was a piece of uncultivated wasteland, and no one knew where the surrounding villages were. So the Thracians gathered together and made some food with the remaining rations. As for the Thracian king, he didn't eat a single bite, but just concentrated on mobilizing the power of his body to heal these injuries.
When the smoke of the Thracians rises.
At the end of the sight, a red line gradually appeared.
The red eagle flag held high represented the Byzantine armed forces, and the knights in red cloaks also represented the most powerful Byzantine army. The drummers who followed the army were controlling the pace of the phalanx infantry with dense drum beats. All the phalanx infantry gathered together to form an almost indestructible wall, slowly advancing towards the Thracians.
"Look over there."
One of the Thracians noticed something was wrong.
The other people also stood up and looked over there.
Looking around, they saw densely packed soldiers, spears, and majestic heavily armored cavalry riding on war horses.
The red flag flying in the air has proved the identity of the other party.
It was the army of the Byzantine Empire.
“…It’s over, we’re dead!”
"It's the Byzantines!"
The soldiers began to panic, and the Thracian king also turned his head towards the northwest.
When he saw the army, the Thracian King also thought about what would happen next.
Chapter 8, Section 6: The Thracian King's Decisive Battle
Hilde rode on horseback and walked at the front of the team.
Hilde, dressed in military uniform, was no longer the elegant lady she used to be, but a dignified female warrior. He took off his helmet, because it was almost useless against a character like the Thracian King, and it would also block his vision, but at the same time, she prepared a headband made of olive branches for herself. She looked like a goddess of heavenly generals.
"Don't attack yet."
Hilde held a spear and looked at the Thracians in front of him from a distance.
"A bunch of defeated soldiers, don't kill them."
"Your Majesty..." Amyntas asked with some concern, "But the enemy is estimated to have more than 10,000 people."
"As long as the King of Thracian is killed, this war will be over. I don't want a Thracian where all the men are dead, understand?" Hilde raised his spear high and shouted to the officers behind him, "Everyone, stay where you are!"
"Yes!"
"I will kill the King of Thracian myself!!!"
Hilde kicked the horse's belly with both legs.
The white horse she was riding rushed out like a flash of white lightning.
The Thracian King straightened up and saw the person rushing towards him. Although he couldn't see clearly, he could instinctively feel that the person rushing towards him must be very powerful, because a faint divine power was transmitted from her body, and this divine power was purer than the divine power in his body. The Thracian King knew that he was now forced into a desperate situation, but he was not afraid. Instead, it aroused his fighting spirit.
Since death is inevitable.
It is better to burn your boats and have a decisive battle with the hero in front of you!
"King of Thrace!!!"
Hilde jumped up from his horse and rushed forward waving his spear.
Although the Thracian King was seriously injured, he was still a hero after all. He took a stone slab from the ground and blocked it in front of himself. At the same time, he roared and smashed directly at Hilde like a cannonball. When the two of them officially clashed, everyone felt a strong pressure that made it almost impossible to breathe.
But the stone was just stone after all, and it couldn't stop the steel spear in Hilde's hand. Hilde directly split the stone and then chopped it towards the Thracian king's head. Hilde's speed was so fast that the Thracian king didn't even have time to react before the spear pierced through the Thracian king's arm.
“Ouch——!!!”
The Thracian King swung his arm and threw Hilde away.
Hilde landed on the ground very lightly.
"You are... the Queen of Byzantium?"
"Yes, it's me." Hilde turned his attention to the Thracian King, "Do you have anything else to say..."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
At this time, the Thracian King suddenly let out a creepy laugh. However, at the same time, a large amount of divine power burst out from his body, and dazzling golden light appeared from his body. The dazzling light even made Hilde feel a little blinded. At this time, the Thracian King, who was surrounded by golden light, showed a terrifying smile: "Hilde... I will kill you! Even if I have to sacrifice myself, I will kill you!!!"
The voice just fell.
The Thracian King disappeared in front of Hilde.
This guy! ?
Hilde jumped out in a hurry, and then, where Hilde was standing, a large pit several meters deep suddenly appeared. Looking closely, the Thracian King punched the place where Hilde had just been, and directly cracked the ground. Such a huge explosive force was completely different from the Thracian King who seemed a little slow just now... Hilde observed the other party's breath, and he probably knew the answer in his heart.
This guy released all of his divine power in order to temporarily improve his abilities.
On these heroes.
There is divine power given to them by the gods.
These divine powers were the main force that supported them. Without them, they would become ordinary people. Now the Thracian King had released all of his divine powers and used them to rapidly increase his physical strength, so that the blackened areas on his body were beginning to be covered by normal skin.
"what--!!!"
"You just yell!"
The opponent is very fast.
But in terms of speed, the slim Hield has more advantages.
She dodged every violent attack from King Thracian with ease, with the aim of depleting his physical strength. Moreover, during the battle, Hilde continued to sense the divine power in King Thracian's body.
She discovered that the power of King Thracian attracted something in her body. When she was avoiding King Thracian's attacks, the rhythm in Hilde's body would also fluctuate with the power leaked out by King Thracian. Such fluctuations gave Hilde a feeling of abundance.
Could this be...
How to control divine power?
Hilde knew that there was divine power from Athena in her body.
However, she never knew how to use it.
But now the appearance of King Thracian made her suddenly feel the existence of divine power in her body. This feeling was very strange. If it weren't for King Thracian, Hilde would not know what divine power was. So, while dodging, Hilde grabbed the divine power in her body and tried to pull it out from the depths of her heart. This metaphor is actually very consistent with the actual situation.
Divine power is like a line extending from the depths of the heart. In fact, there is only one line, and what Hilde has to do is to pull out that line. However, that line is too illusory, and it is obviously difficult to grasp it. However, Hilde feels that as long as he grasps it, he may be able to solve the mystery of his body.
Hilde's attention was almost entirely focused on his body.
Her avoidance was almost instinctive.
Finally, in this hide-and-seek battle, Hilde caught the line.
"Aren't you the king?"
At this time, the Thracian king stopped his attack.
“Upright!!!”
"Fair and upright?"
Hilde stopped and took a deep breath.
Let's try it out here...
Hilde is not an oracle, because she is the reincarnation of a god, so many things cannot be explained by the standards of an oracle. Hilde thinks that at this time, she should give it a try to see what kind of ability the bottomless divine power in her body can provide.
The eighth chapter, the seventh chapter, liberates the power of the sky
Athena's body.
The original library of creation hidden in the body.
And some deeper existence hidden within the original book of creation.
Now, it's time to dig it out.
So, Hilde mobilized all her attention and pulled the divine power out from deep inside her body. She didn't know whether this divine power came from Athena herself or from the original book of creation, but as long as she could use it, it was a good ability. So, Hilde gritted her teeth and felt the endless flow of divine power, which was constantly enriching her body. The powerful force instantly filled Hilde's body, just like a dried-up river was refilled with water.
You know, Hilde's body has never been an ordinary mortal body.
That itself is the body of God.
"what happened……"
The Thracian King stopped and looked at Hilde in front of him.
In his eyes, Hilde's body was undergoing a huge change. It was a power that was purer and more surging than the power in the Thracian King's body. It came from nowhere, but it had a completely different feeling from Apollo's power. Moreover, the strong fluctuations made the power in the Thracian King's body begin to shrink.
That's right, divine powers are like people.
It's scared.
Faced with the power in Hilde's body, the divine power derived from Apollo in the Thracian King actually began to try to escape deep into the Thracian King's body. Even the Thracian King could feel that it was afraid and was running away.
The Thracian King had never seen such power.
"This power..."
Hilde was surprised to find out.
This force was much stronger than she had imagined.
However, there was also a disturbing situation. That was that another familiar feeling emerged from this power. It was the same feeling that Hilde had when she turned into a demon, sucked blood, and fell into madness because of the smell of blood. Hilde could not care about so much. What she had to do now was to defeat the Thracian King as quickly as possible, and then the war would be over.
"I am coming!"
At this time, in the eyes of the King of Thracian.
Hilde's figure instantly turned into a dotted line.
Before she could even blink, Hilde had already flashed to the side of the Thracian King. The spear in her hand, like a crossbow arrow from a crossbow, pierced directly into the Thracian King's body from the right side. Even the flesh that had been strengthened by divine power was now directly pierced. The Thracian King groaned and punched Hilde fiercely. However, Hilde and her spear had completely disappeared in front of the Thracian King.
"Damn it!"
The Thracian king rolled over.
The place where he was standing just now sank and turned into a big pit.
"What kind of monster are you!"
No...
The divine power in the body is escaping!
Now, the Thracian King found that his divine power was tightly suppressed by the opponent, so that he could not even use his powerful combat ability. Hilde's speed was also very fast. Every time she moved, her flashing figure almost became a dotted line. The Thracian King had almost no way to catch Hilde's movements. This situation of playing cat and mouse had now turned around. It was no longer Hilde who was dodging, but the Thracian King had to avoid Hilde's attacks.
Countless dazzling figures flashed in the air. The Thracian King was just about to find a place to attack, but before he could take action, he lost Hilde's trace and only a vague afterimage was left.
And Hield is gradually speeding up.
Her powerful physical abilities allow her to accelerate to extremely terrifying levels in a short period of time.
At the same time, divine power brings more than just physical strengthening.
If the special ability of the Thracian King is his extremely strong healing and defensive abilities, and Rhodes's divine power is to control the sea and rivers, and another psychic, Tomyris, has the ability to swap beasts and superb archery skills, then now Hilde has gradually found a special "ability" of her own.
The spear in Hilde's hand had already caused enough damage to the Thracian King, but this guy's physical defense ability was too abnormal. Even if Hilde pierced his chest, he couldn't completely kill him. So, Hilde suddenly found that he seemed to be able to sense the sky. This divine power had a great influence on the sky. The feeling of soaring in the sky made Hilde gradually find a way to use it.
at this time.
Amyntas, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but say:
"Why hasn't this Thracian king died yet?"
"Yeah..." The other officers were also worried.
But Amyntas always felt that something was wrong. He felt that the atmosphere suddenly became a little oppressive, and he even felt a little breathless. When Amyntas looked around curiously, he found that the soldiers felt the same way. The air seemed to be solidified, not only making it hard to breathe, but also as if something was pressing them down from above. At this moment, Amyntas suddenly noticed that there were several flashes of purple light in the sky.
"what is that?"
"……Um?"
Everyone's attention was focused on the sky.
