Chapter 151: Taking Oris without a Fight

After Atalanta was knocked unconscious by Luo Yin, Nauplius and Elephnoa also ran down from the city wall with their soldiers and surrounded Luo Yin.

Surrounded by hundreds of soldiers, Luo Yin turned around with a faint smile and looked at Nauplius and Elephnoa.

The soldiers surrounding Luo Yin all looked fearful and trembling, as if Luo Yin was surrounding hundreds of them by himself.

After making eye contact with the solemn-faced Nauplius, Luo Yin raised his left hand and snapped his fingers.

Snap!

With the snap of fingers, an uninhabited house suddenly ignited with white-gold flames and was burned to rubble in the blink of an eye.

After letting everyone around him witness the miracle, Luo Yin snapped his fingers again and burned another uninhabited house to ashes.

then--

Luo Yin snapped his fingers for the third time.

Using miracles to break down everyone's psychological defenses, Luo Yin then said to Elephnoa.

"Prince Elephnoa! Do you want to live or die here? If you don't want to die, then take Atalanta back to Arcadia for me."

Elephnoa had already given up his right to inherit the throne, and the survival of the city of Auris had nothing to do with him. Moreover, he still had a reason to live - to raise Theseus' two young sons and to serve the goddess Ar, whom he worshiped. Themis.

So Elephnoa only hesitated for a moment before driving his chariot to Luo Yin.

Luo Yin picked up the unconscious Atalanta in a princess hug, then put Atalanta on the chariot and said.

"Elephnoa! Even if you are just a human, you should be able to tell that Atalanta is the incarnation of the goddess Artemis you serve. Don't do anything to blaspheme the goddess when she is unconscious."

Elephnoa rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction and said.

"Please don't doubt my devout faith! And compared to me, you are the man who is more likely to blaspheme the goddess."

After Elephnoa drove away with Atalanta in his chariot, Luo Yin walked up to Nauplius.

Before Luo Yin could speak, Nauprios knelt down in front of Luo Yin in fear and said.

"I failed to recognize that you are a great god. Please forgive me for my offense. I am willing to let the city of Oris abandon all the gods it originally worshiped and make you the only patron saint of the city of Oris."

"What are you talking about?"

Luo Yin said with a joking smile.

"Nauplios, I am not a god, but Tantalus, the king of Mycenae. My purpose is not to change the patron saint of the city of Auris, but to bring the city of Auris under my rule."

"Are you really not a god? Then did the many miracles you just showed come from Hestia, the goddess of fire?"

Although Luo Yin didn't like lying, he had to continue lying at this time.

After all, in this world where gods really exist, gods are also bound by rules. They can only help humans eliminate hostile city-states, but cannot personally participate in wars between humans.

If Luo Yin's identity is regarded as a god, Luo Yin, who personally participated in the war, as a god who breaks the rules, is likely to become the common enemy of humans and gods.

So Luo Yin could only keep the smile on his face and said.

"You guessed it right. Whether it's my body being invulnerable or the fact that I summoned flames to burn down the house just now, it's all a miracle from Hestia, the patron goddess of Mycenae."

"The goddess Hestia...is actually such a powerful deity?"

Luo Yin didn't care about Nauprios' reaction and continued to speak to him.

"Nauprios! Just now I gave Elephnoa a chance to survive, and now I will give you a chance. Are you going to die in the city of Auris, or are you going to take your family and leave here?"

The city of Auris was a hub for trade between Greece and Asia Minor.

As the king of Auris, Nauprios helped many kings exile the punished royal rebels to Asia Minor.

The illegitimate son of Heracles, Telephus, the Mysian king during the Trojan War, was exiled to Asia Minor by Nauplius together with his mother.

Unexpectedly, the fate of being forced to leave his hometown would befall him now.

Nauplios hesitated for a moment with a struggling expression, and finally lowered his head and said.

"If you can allow me to take away all the property in the palace, I am willing to take my family and leave the city of Oris."

"Can."

Hearing Luo Yin's words, Nauprios breathed a sigh of relief.

The property in the palace includes not only utensils such as bronze tripods, but also the maids and guards of the palace.

If you take these properties away with you, even if you cannot establish a new city-state in other areas, you can still purchase land and become a noble with territory and people.

After Nauplius stood up in a daze, Luo Yin continued.

"If there are any soldiers or civilians in Oris City who are willing to leave with you, you can also take them away."

Nauprios opened his eyes in surprise and said in disbelief.

"Thank you for your kindness. Now I have the confidence to establish new city-states in other areas. I begin to feel that the city of Oris taken away by you is the goddess of fate's punishment for me to exile others. My family and I will not treat you Any resentment.”

Luo Yin didn't care whether what Nauprios just said was the truth or a lie.

After letting Yin'er take over the city with the Okaria soldiers, Luo Yin brought Yin'er to the palace. Seeing hundreds of soldiers loyal to Nauplius busy moving the property in the palace to the port, Yin'er said with some emotion.

"Dear Tantalus, you are indeed a god different from humans. If it were a human hero who occupied the city of Oris, he would definitely kill all the men of the royal family and then take the royal property as trophies. When Hercules occupied the city of Okaria, he killed my father and brothers, took away all the cattle and sheep of the royal family, and the royal property was only the land that he could not take away. And you not only allowed Nauplius to take away the royal property, but also allowed him to take away important population."

"I just want to avoid some sacrifices."

Luo Yin said with a smile.

"If I deprive Nauplius of all his property, even if he regards me as a pillar of god, he will fight to the death with his loyal people. Now I give him hope to rebuild the city-state, and he will voluntarily leave Oris."

As soon as Luo Yin finished his explanation, a messenger-like person came to the gate of the palace, took a look at the scene of moving in the palace, and then looked at Luo Yin and Yin'erle wearing royal costumes. The messenger came to Luo Yin and asked.

"Excuse me, are you King Nauplius or Prince Elephnoa?"

"If you are here to find the king of Oris, you can tell me directly. Now I am the king here."

"I am the messenger of Tyndareus, the king of Sparta!"

The messenger said to Luo Yin with a hesitant expression.

"The King of Sparta is going to select fiancés for the beautiful Princesses Clytemnestra and Helen. I am here to invite the unmarried Prince Elephnoa to Sparta to participate in the marriage proposal. If you can inform Prince Elephnoa of this news, I will be very grateful to you. If you cannot inform Prince Elephnoa, please tell me how to find Prince Elephnoa."

"Elephnoa has already sailed to Arcadia. You can find Elephnoa in Arcadia."

After the messenger left in a hurry, Luo Yin's face became a little ugly.

After all, Clytemnestra and Hera, who was transformed into Helen, were once his fiancées. Now that the King of Sparta Tyndareus is choosing fiancés for them, he is afraid that a piece of green grassland will grow on his head.
