Zeus says a very brazen statement that sarpedon must be killed. Patroclus went out and aimed his weapon to kill Sarpedon but instead hit his lieutenant. Patroclus doesn’t give up and finally kills Sarpedon and Glaucus turns to god for help. Glaucus was praying to have the power to fight back and gather troops to fight back for Sarpedons body. Epeigeus came to join the fight and he finally got to Sarpedons body but was immediately killed! Glaucus becomes the Lycian leader now. Everyone is fighting and many people are dying. Apollo finally takes control and attacks Patroclus. He doesn’t kill him for now but Patroclus tells him that he didnt really do all the hard work to attack and he will die soon for this action. Achilles chases Hector and finally catches up and tells him that he will kill him for stripping off his arm off of Patroclus. People were around in a circle watching Achilles stab Hector. Unfortunately Hectors parents witnessed this scene with their own eyes too.
