Chapter 115: ·Halina and Zeus


While Hydera was still communicating with his own clan, on the other side, Zeus also came to Sparta, who wanted to witness it with his own eyes.
Although he hasn't entered the city yet, Zeus has peeped into the extraordinary Sparta... The most striking thing is the seven-meter-high city wall. In this era, even the most prosperous Athens in northern Greece, in terms of the scale of the city walls, is only about three meters. Sparta’s walls are twice as direct as Greece. The pride of his hometown that still existed in the heart of Zeus was almost destroyed when he saw this tall and strong bravery.
Although I have long heard that Sparta is very powerful, when I saw it with my own eyes, Zeus was still amazed by the fact that he couldn't help but surrounded it...
Unlike soldiers from other places, Spartan soldiers are more guys and more rigorous. Standing on duty, it looks like a sculpture calmly at the pedestrians.
Wearing a Collins helmet on his head. The style of this helmet itself originated from ancient Greece. The Collins helmet is the first helmet with veiled armor in the history of the world. The shape of the Collins helmet is the kind of metal helmet with the horizontal, similar to the horsehair general Mosigan headdress.
But as a folklorist, Hydera was well aware of the shortcomings of the Collins helmet. The most obvious one is that the helmet itself does not have a cushioning device, and the attack can only be relieved by the flat hair that is pressed. Therefore, when redesigning, Hedra deliberately added a layer of buffer belt similar to the military helmet of later generations. Although there is not much change in appearance, the overall flexibility and safety have been obtained. Greatly improved.
The face shield covers the bridge of the nose and cheeks. This made the Spartan soldiers only show their eyes and lips. In order to prevent the horn sound from being heard because of the covering of the helmet, the helmet is provided with an angle at the ear. While ensuring safety, it also made Spartan soldiers easy to disassemble after the war.
Although the helmet and the original history have not changed much in appearance, but in the armor, Hydera has worked hard... not the original light leather armor because of insufficient productivity. It is a multi-piece Roman breastplate. And this method of making armor is not difficult, fix the iron piece on the leather rope and then fix the leather rope to the combination. But like his name, this is a kind of breastplate, and there is no matching armor and leg armor. Therefore, there will be a lack of defense. Although a little protective area is ignored, it is replaced by more powerful flexibility...
In an era in which human resources are precious, compared to complete protection, giving play to everyone's strengths is what Hedra really wants. What's more, in this era where leather armor or even armor is not the mainstream, even if it is just like this, it can also represent the power of Sparta in the handicraft industry... you know, every iron piece on the breastplate , Are made by forging several times.
On his waist is a Roman short sword, in his hand is a short spear and a circle, and the Altas shield with the emblem of Hydera engraved on the front...that is, the large round shield in the film and television works. Among them, the latter two are not mentioned, the short spear and the round shield can be said to be the iconic existence of Sparta. Roman daggers are shorter, sharper, and more focused on stabs than ordinary melee weapons. This makes up for the shortcoming that the short spear is not suitable for close combat.
Under the intervention of Hydera, Sparta directly passed the Stone Age and the Bronze Age, and directly entered the Iron Age... even saying that if it was not for productivity and technology, Hydera intended to let soldiers directly enter the Age of Firearms ...
Looking at the orderly and unsmiling soldiers in front of him, Zeus stopped subconsciously... The order was forbidden. In Zeus's observation, even if he left the team, the number of Spartan soldiers will be subconscious as long as they exceed three. The arrangement is in a row and the steps are consistent. The synchronic rate of movement gives people the feeling that it is not three people who are independent of each other, but a pure body... just like a person, and his two avatars in general!
His eyes couldn't help being attracted, and Zeus froze for a while.
But before waiting for Zeus to completely come out of this shock from the Spartan military, a voice resembling a lark sounded again.
"Hey, that young man, is this your first time in Sparta?"
Hearing someone seem to be calling himself, Zeus turned his eyes subconsciously. The goal is not a person, but a young woman whose limbs are the limbs of birds. Although he had lived in Athens before, this does not mean that Zeus did not have any familiarity with the outside world. On the contrary, out of curiosity, although he did not come to Sparta in person, when he was still in the palace, Zeus already had a good understanding of Sparta through the mouth of the merchant.
If Zeus remembered correctly, the woman with wings and claws on her limbs in front of her should be the family of Harpyre, one of the sisters of Hydera, and the family of Hawks...
"you are?"
"I'm Hal Nina! You're the Hawk Harpy!"
The young Harpy wandered in the sky and returned to Zeus's doubts.
Hearing Halina's words, Zeus nodded. Then he smiled and replied: "My name is Zeus, this is my first time here...but how do you see that I am here for the first time?"
"That's not easy~"
Halina flew in the sky and said with a little pride: "I was surprised to see such a person like you for the first time. I have seen this much more! How about it? Very powerful!"
Hearing Halina's words, Zeus looked at the neat army and the two huge gates carved with Hydera and Radon, and nodded subconsciously.
The shock in his eyes has not gone for a long time. Looking at the sigh on Zeus's face, Hal Nina aside smiled, covering her mouth. For Zeus, she still has a good impression, because in the young Zeus she felt a refreshing breath.
After playing two circles over Zeus' head, Hal Nina said with a little flaunt: "The army here is not the most powerful Sparta!"
