I would guess B, but i'm not 100% sure
Metaphor!
It’s not a simile because LIKE or AS is not being used but things are being compared.
An epic hero has several characteristics such as being of noble birth and humility. Ulysses's characteristics mentioned are exemplified by different events in Homer's Odyssey.
a. "Ulysses conceives a plan to blind Cyclops" is an example of hero's characteristic of being braver and smarter than a typical man. As an intelligent man, Ulysses comes up with a plan that no one else could think of to defeat Cyclops.
b. "Ulysses shouts out his name to the Cyclops while leaving the island" exemplifies how Ulysses possesses human frailties and flaws.
c. "Jove orders Calypso to allow Ulysses to continue on his journey home" is an example of how a hero receives help from supernatural friends. Jove's help Ulysses contributes to his characterization of epic hero.
d. "Neptune raises storms to throw Ulysses's ship off course" is an example of how an epic hero faces obstacles set by supernatural foes, in this case, Neptuno.
