Chapter 673

Watching this scene, you and Hector knelt directly before your father.

Priam looked at this disappointing son before him; he could never bring himself to order your punishment. Still sitting on his throne, he said sternly, "Gather all the soldiers! We absolutely cannot lose this battle!"

"Yes! Father King!" x2

Your and Hector's voices had just faded when, the very next second, a voice echoed through the palace.

"Knowing there is no hope of victory, yet you still wish to stake everything on a single throw? Foolish!"

Suddenly, a figure appeared before you all! And the moment you saw this man, you recognized his identity from the portraits sent from the front lines!

Lin Ye!

"Quick! All soldiers! Take him down for me!"

Priam reacted immediately as well! He waved his hand! Countless soldiers charged toward Lin Ye, yet Lin Ye did not even move. He merely cast a glance, and all the soldiers turned into stone statues, frozen in place.

Except for... you and Hector!

"This is!! The Mystic Eyes of Petrification?"

Paris looked at Lin Ye before him in terror; he had never seen such a person.

Appearing out of thin air, resolving everyone with a mere gesture. In his impression, only gods could achieve such a feat!

"Release my father!"

Hector charged toward Lin Ye, spear in hand! However, Lin Ye merely raised a hand, and a surge of seawater transformed into a water prison, imprisoning Hector within.

Only then did Lin Ye walk step by step to stand before Paris and say,

"Paris, right?"

"That's right." Paris puffed out his chest, looking at Lin Ye without fear. Regardless of anything else, he was a hero; he had at least that much courage.

Lin Ye: "As expected, you are that idiot."

"You!"

"What about 'you'! Because of your willfulness, Troy and Sparta have fallen into such a war; do you still have the face to stand here?"

Hearing Lin Ye's questioning, Paris's tone inevitably dropped, but he still said, "I love her."

"Love? So you only care about your love game, is that right?

Do you know that because of your love, the peace maintained between the two nations for many years has been broken;

Do you know that because of your love, countless commoners have been displaced;

Do you know that because of your love, how many soldiers who went to the front lines can never return home to embrace their lovers;

Do you know that because of your love, your father, your brother, and Troy will all be destroyed.

How laughable; you gave the golden apple to the Goddess of Love, yet you do not understand love at all."

To tell the truth, Lin Ye did not like Paris much. There is nothing wrong with disregarding everything for love itself, but his mistake was that he disregarded entirely the interests of others.

He acted recklessly without the ability to solve problems; he sacrificed the lives of his father and brother, sacrificed his own country, but the only thing he did not sacrifice was himself.

If Paris knew he was wrong and took Helen to Sparta to make amends, even if he were to be executed by the King of Sparta, Lin Ye would at least have gone to save him. Unfortunately, he did not.

The most infuriating thing is that after Paris shot and killed Achilles, Philoctetes also shot him with an arrow. Although that arrow did not hit a vital point, it was an arrow passed down from Heracles, stained with the Hydra's poison.

There was no other way; Paris could only go to beg Apollo. And Apollo told him that only Oenone, the wife he abandoned because of Helen, had the medicine to remove the Hydra's poison. He went to beg for his wife's forgiveness; of course, Oenone did not save him, and so he died.

And after he died, Oenone ran desperately toward the location of his grave, running for a day and a night, losing her shoes and breaking her feet, until she was finally seen by the passing Moon Goddess (why are you passing by everywhere?), who pitied her and brought her to Paris's grave.

Then, Oenone threw herself into a fire on the side and died for love in front of Paris's mother and his wife, Helen.

So... how could Lin Ye ever like a man who abandons his wife and children and lacks responsibility?

"Putting aside your character, just speaking of being a person, you aren't even as good as Gilles." ===== CHAPTER 675 =====
