Chapter 833 The Last Transaction
Chen Yihan did not forget that Xiaowan could fly, but just didn't want her to do something too dangerous.
However, Xiaowan's proposal obviously helped the Spartans, and it was also the most suitable suggestion now. After all, Xiaowan was able to transform into a fire phoenix, and it was much easier for her to deal with the ship than Chen Yihan.
Chen Yihan thought so in his heart, and nodded slightly.
When Xiaowan transformed into a fire phoenix, he did not forget to remind him loudly, "Xiaowan, be careful! These Persian troops are terrible, and the Lord God is standing on their side."
"Don't worry! I'm fine." Xiaowan responded and rushed straight into the sky. After that, she dived towards the warship in the sea.
As Xiao Wan flew away, Chen Yihan vibrated his wings and flew into the air.
After that, he waved the Dragon Soul Sword vigorously and attacked the Persian archers hiding on both sides of the valley from the air.
When the archers saw Chen Yihan appear, they desperately dodged his attack and shot feather arrows into the air. Unfortunately, most of the arrows they shot in panic were dodged by Chen Yihan. Occasionally, there were arrows that could hit his body, but they could not cause fatal damage to him.
But at this time, Chen Yihan's harm to them was different.
When Chen Yihan's sword fell on their heads, they would die on the ground on the spot; when his sword swept their bodies, although they would not die on the spot, they would also roll down from the ridge. In the end, those who were cut by Chen Yihan could not escape death.
"Let's go! Let's go outside."
Although Chen Yihan and Xiaowan tried their best to attack the Persians, they were numerous after all and had extremely strong ranged attack capabilities. Therefore, they wanted to deal with the archers on the top of the valley and the ships in the sea in a short period of time. This was simply impossible.
In desperation, Leonida still commanded the remaining Spartans to rush towards the valley entrance in a neat queue. Obviously, these Spartans would rather die on the battlefield than let themselves be crushed to death by huge rocks.
When they did so, the Persian army was gathering towards the valley entrance.
As a result, the two powerful armies fought together again. But unlike the situation in the previous three days, the Spartans have become the last of their strength. Although they are still fighting desperately, their lethality is obviously not as powerful as those three days ago.
"Should! The Spartans. Glory will always belong to us..."
Leonida almost gritted her teeth and shouted such words. As he spoke, he slashed out the dagger in his hand. At the same time, his big shield blocked the Persian attack on him.
At this time, Lie and Jianlang were of course not idle either.
One of them crossed the Spartans' queue and rushed into the Persians to fight with them, while the other launched a sneak attack on the Persians with their bone spears from behind.
With their help, although the Spartans were exhausted, they were still fighting hard. And they did not completely suppress the Persians. However, as time went by, more and more Spartans fell to the ground. Not only that, the energy of the Donghuang Bell became weaker and weaker.
"Brother Han, how are you doing? It's almost noon now, can we retreat?"
After Chen Yihan dealt with the Persian archers on the valley, he also lowered his body. Just now, he released a destruction storm among the Persians. Now, except for relying on his strong bloodline to fight, he has no energy to support him in his skills.
"Wait a minute! The Lord God has not given us such a prompt now, which means we have not completed the task he has delivered." Chen Yihan said while sweeping out the Dragon Soul Sword. Under his attack, another row of Persian soldiers were chopped to the ground.
At this time, the Persian warships in the sea gradually moved away from the coast.
Obviously, they could not withstand Xiaowan's repeated attacks, so they had to make a decision to temporarily give in.
"Your Majesty! Leonida, no..." At this moment, a scream came from the Spartans' queue. Chen Yihan heard this cry and quickly turned his gaze to the Spartans. As a result, he found that a feather arrow shot Leonida's neck. At this moment, Leonida had already fallen to the ground.
"Protect! Protect Your Majesty."
Although there are not many Spartans left on the battlefield now, under the command of the centurion, they leaned against Leonida.
"Fuck! Brother Han, it's a bad thing. Donghuang Bell's energy has been used up."
"I've thought of it." Chen Yihan responded to the words of the wolf in a low tone. Obviously, he tried hard to protect Leonida, but he finally watched him fall to the ground.
"Everyone will withdraw! Our mission in this world is about to end."
Xiaowan and the other two said nothing when they heard Chen Yihan's order. Obviously, Leonida was shot in the arrow, which made them feel very depressed. Although Chen Yihan and the Guiller Wolf both had healing techniques and might have used up all the amount, they could really not use any technique except to save themselves.
"The humble Spartans and your allies! Now you should know who is the master and who is the greatest king? As long as you are willing to surrender, I can help you save Leonida's life. Not only that, I will also give you supreme glory."
At this moment, Xerxes's giant chariot appeared on the battlefield.
He sat on the magnificent throne, swaying his arms slightly while speaking. At this moment, his face was full of smugness and satisfaction. Obviously, he felt that this was a good time to destroy the will of the Spartans. Now that Leonida's command is gone, he certainly wants to see what the Spartans will look like.
"Xerxes! Don't dream. Even if you kill all of us, we will not surrender." The centurion replied with loud and vocal words.
"I'm dreaming?" Xerxes said, leaning forward, "Spartan, what's your name? Can you represent these people?"
"He is our centurion! The Spartans will never surrender."
"Centurion." Xerxes leaned back to the back of the chair when he heard the Spartans' shout. Then he put his hand to his mouth and groped, and his face changed to a contemptuous expression. After pondering for a while, he swung his arms and whispered, "If you are willing to join our Persian camp, I will promote you to a general immediately! What do you think?"
"General? Haha! What a great official?"
The centurion said as he looked at the other Spartans. At this time, these people still had disdainful expressions on their faces. Obviously, they did not accept Xerxes' suggestion.
When the centurion turned his head back, his hand held the halberd tighter. At the same time, his steps moved forward a little. After that, he tilted his head and said, "Xerxes, King of Kings, can I surrender to you and be a general?"
"If you have other suggestions, it's OK! After I conquered Greece, I really need someone to help me manage the matter here. Although you are not a Greek nobleman, I can still give you the status of a nobleman. In this case, do you want to be the king of Sparta or the king of Greece? As long as you speak, I will agree to your request."
After hearing this, the centurion couldn't help but lower his head and neck.
Depending on the situation, he seemed to be thinking seriously about Xerxes' suggestions. When the other Spartans saw him doing this, their faces first showed a look of surprise, and then their eyes became contempt. After that, they looked at the centurion's back with even more resentful eyes.
At this moment, Antios also quietly pulled out the short sword. Obviously, as long as the centurion dared to surrender to Xerxes, he would dare to stab the sword into his body.
Chen Yihan saw the centurion's actions on the side, but his eyes felt like he was thorny.
Although he was not sure of the intention of the centurion to do so, he felt that the scene seemed familiar. In the original plot of the movie, Leonida had done something similar. Could it be that the centurion did this, just like Leonida, and wanted to assassinate Xerxes?
Just as Chen Yihan thought this, the centurion threw the big shield in his hand aside, then took off his helmet. After that, his body moved forward and leaned against the ground.
When Xerxes saw the centurion doing this, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but purse, and the expression on his face became even more proud.
At this time, Antinos's figure slowly moved forward. It seemed that he should be planning to attack the centurion. Chen Yihan saw him doing this, and quickly put his hand on his shoulder. No matter what, he could not watch the father and son kill each other.
"Great King! King of Kings, Xerxes."
The centurion leaned against the kneeling and said slowly, and raised his head. When his eyes were fixed on Xerxes' face, his body suddenly jumped up. Then, he threw the long halberd in his hand forward with great force, "Go to die! Go back to your Persia..."
When Chen Yihan heard the centurion's shout, his heart tightened at first! Then, he relaxed.
Apparently the centurion did what Leonida should have done. When these brave Spartans were in trouble, they made the same choice.
The same as the original plot of the movie is that the long halberd thrown by the centurion flew towards Xerxes in the end, but it was a slight difference. Unlike the original plot of the movie, the long halberd failed to hurt Xerxes, but was bounced away by the force in front of him.
After that, the centaur warrior guarding in front of the giant chariot shot out the giant arrow. When the centurion's figure fell to the ground, a giant arrow had already shot into his heart and pierced his body.
"Father! Centurion..."
With these shouts, the Spartans moved forward one after another and quickly stood back to their original place. Although they felt heartbroken by the death of the centurion, they did not forget their duty to protect Leonida.
