Chapter 164
but......
Your disciple?
Jason looked at Clotho in confusion.
Hey, isn't Nuoyan just like me, a follower of Hera, the Queen of Heaven?
He remembered it very clearly. That was what Clotho said himself. He and Nuoyan were both the ones who brought glory to Queen Hera.
Clotho didn't care about Jason's thoughts. Even if he knew it, he would definitely ignore it, and said words that surprised Jason again, saying: "At the same time, you are not the one whose destiny is changed by the promise. people......"
...
...
In the Kingdom of Colchis,
At night, Nuoyan found the mother and daughter of Medea, who were close together and talking in a courtyard of the castle.
And when she learned from the attendant that the promise was coming to her, the surprise and joy on Medea's face were visible to the naked eye.
Seeing this, her mother immediately understood what her daughter was thinking. After a few words of teasing with a smile, she took the initiative to leave and gave them some time alone.
Then Medea simply arranged her hair and clothes, and sat down obediently, waiting for the promise to come.
And when Nuoyan came to him, he said with a bright smile: "Nuoyan, why did you come to me so late?"
"Yeah." Nuo Yan nodded.
Facing Medea, who already knew everything, the promise was not concealed and she said directly: "Actually, before arriving here, the goddess Athena had already given me the oracle.
The three trials of obtaining the Golden Fleece are also the trials of Ares, the God of War. In this trial, I cannot borrow the power of any god, so Medea, I need your help. "
"My help."
Medea blinked and said to Nuoyan, "How can I help you?"
When Medea said this, Nuoyan didn't notice that her eyes looked a little nervous, even a little panicked.
Could it be that... you already know the promise?
Just when Medea was thinking this.
"That's what you do best, Medea."
Nuoyan smiled and said: "You are an excellent student of the goddess Hecate. I think if it were you, you would be able to create a fire that is immune to the sacred cow, and strengthen me to the point where I can compete with Theseus and Hercules. Les and the others are fighting."
In fact, in the original myth, Medea helped Jason in this way.
Medea made the magic potion, which not only made Jason fearless of the flames of the sacred bull, but also gave him strength comparable to Heracles and a body like steel.
In this way, Jason successfully passed the first two trials.
As for the third trial, Medea personally took Jason to the sleepless dragon.
This is also the reason why Clotho said that Jason's greatest glory is closely connected with Medea... Even though she was down and out, it was because of her.
Speaking of this, Nuoyan still showed a pitiful expression, and said to Medea, who had already understood and showed a look of confusion: "Medea, you will never fail to help me. You and your unreliable teacher will definitely It’s different, right?”
Seeing Nuoyan's expression, Medea couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then replied: "Of course, I am definitely different from the teacher, um...but it takes a while, can I trouble Nuoyan to wait a little longer? ?”
With that said, Medea stood up and left.
That rushing look seemed like he was trying to prepare a magic potion for his promise, but also seemed...
"Well, why do I feel that she seems a little guilty, like she is hiding something?"
Promise was a little confused.
However, he thought about it carefully and immediately gave up the idea.
After all, although Medea is a bit dark now, Nuo Yan knows that she will never harm him.
On the side, Medea couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the promise and turning back to confirm that he had not come.
At the same time, she took out two bottles of magic potion from her body. These two bottles of magic potion were exactly what Nuoyan needed. She had actually asked Hecate for help and had finished making them.
"If the teacher hears these words, he will definitely run out in anger, throw them all away, and say no more." Medea covered her mouth and snickered, and put it away carefully.
"No, we can't do this anymore. I originally thought we could wait for two days, but he is too keen... As expected, I'd better tell everyone my plan tonight!"
Medea made up her mind.
She walked towards the place where the heroes of the Argonauts were arranged to stay.
What Medea didn't expect was that tonight was extremely lively.
Along the way, she met more than one acquaintance.
Heracles, Atalanta, Jason and Orpheus, the five of them bumped into each other on the road, looking at each other.
Then Orpheus was the first to laugh. He took out the harp he found out from nowhere, played the harp gently, and said with a smile: "If my guess is correct, we are all gathered here for the same reason tonight. , right?”
Atalanta clasped her hands on her chest, looked at everyone and said thoughtfully: "It is also possible that we are not the only ones who have been found by the gods... Or, in addition to the promise, everyone on the ship may Have you been warned by some god?"
"Well, then why don't you talk openly?" Medea tilted her head, a little confused.
Before today, Medea had always thought that she was alone!
"It feels like we are fighting for something." Recalling what Clotho said, especially Jason who promised to be my disciple, he couldn't help but muttered.
As soon as the words fell, Hercules hurriedly coughed twice to stop Jason from saying a few words.
Otherwise, we will wait for the shameful and angry gods to settle the accounts later!
Immediately, they all fell silent again.
"Then the question is, who will keep the promise?"
Jason said suddenly. Under the gaze of everyone for a moment, Jason's expression changed and he backed away suddenly. He shook his head crazily and said, "Don't, don't look at me. With that kid's physique, even if it's me, , didn’t even dare to stop him!
If you bump or touch it, it’s over! "
Of course, this refers to Jason having finished playing by himself.
"Hmm... maybe, we can go to the ship to find the maid. She should have chains."
Medea recalled the maid doll sent by Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen, to take care of Promise, and said: "Then we can imprison Promise!"
When Medea finished saying this, Atalanta looked at her strangely.
Are you serious?
"Don't look at me like this. Nuoyan was imprisoned before, by Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen. I never thought of imprisoning Nuoyan... Well, really!" After realizing it, Medea, who realized how dangerous and bold her words were, quickly defended herself.
Then, she saw Jason avoiding her like the god of plague, running behind Heracles and trembling in fear.
Now, Jason, who knew everything from Clotho, finally knew why his heart beat faster every time he saw Medea.
This is the fear that comes from deep inside!
Finally, Atalanta sighed helplessly and said: "If it doesn't work, just leave the promise to me..."
Atalanta hadn't finished speaking yet.
"Then leave the child to me."
An unusually gentle voice sounded, and then under the extremely surprised eyes of Heracles, Jason, and Orpheus, a man who shouldn't be here, but who seemed so natural, came. before their eyes.
He is...
...
...
"Chiron-sensei?!"
The next day,
When Nuoyan woke up from his deep sleep, he was immediately startled when he saw the centaur sage sitting quietly in the room, waiting for him to wake up.
He even pinched his face, thinking that he might not have woken up, so he turned around and lay down again.
"It's me." Seeing this, Chiron couldn't help but feel a little funny and said, "I came here from the Piliwen Cave."
"Um...Teacher, is it really you?"
Nuoyan stood up, looked at Chiron, and pinched his face again. It felt a little painful. It was not the dream queen, so he said in surprise: "Teacher, why are you here?!"
"Because of what's coming next, I should be here."
Chiron thought for a moment and then replied with a smile.
"What's next?" Nuoyan was stunned for a moment, "What's going on."
"Your tribute to Ares, the God of War."
Chiron replied concisely and concisely: "That painting of Ares, the God of War.
And this will be a painting composed for you in return for the people you have helped so far. I am one of them, so I should naturally come. "
Having said this, Nuo Yan, who had been stunned for a moment, came to his senses.
Chiron continued to smile and said: "But because of this trial, the gods can't take action, so I can only come here to do another thing, and that is to imprison you... No, it's to protect you. ”
Nuoyan didn't speak for a while, but some understanding flashed in his eyes.
"Where are they?" Nuoyan asked immediately.
Chiron looked back at the sun, which had been out for a while, and replied: "We have already gone to the suburbs to find the two sacred cows left by the sun god Helios, and go to the first trial."
After hearing this, Nuoyan immediately got out of bed, quickly changed his clothes, and immediately called Tianma when he went out, but Tianma did not respond to Nuoyan's call.
"That guy!"
Nuo Yan, whose face turned a bit darker, couldn't help but feel angry, and realized that it was definitely not because he didn't hear it. Either he was 'eating grass' or he was pretending not to hear.
"Promise, why are you so flustered?"
Chiron walked over slowly and asked Nuoyan with a smile.
"Too dangerous!"
Nuoyan looked at Chiron angrily and said: "They are the sacred cows left by the sun god Helios. If they are infected with the flames on their bodies..."
"Yeah." Chiron nodded, "Under normal circumstances, he would have died."
"Then why do you let them behave like this, teacher?"
Nuoyan said eagerly.
Chiron was silent for a while, then looked at Nuoyan and said quietly: "If you insist on saying it, I have been letting you mess around. After all, even Jason, you can't beat him, right?"
Nuo Yan was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the teacher in disbelief.
Teacher, how could you say such cold words!
"This, this, this is different!"
Nuo Yan said anxiously.
"Why is it different?"
Chiron smiled gently again and said to Nuoyan: "On your part, have you forgotten anything, for example... all of them are actually the same heroes on the Argonaut as you.
And they gathered together and came here for the precious Golden Fleece, and also to bring glory back to Greece. "
Chiron said, when Nuoyan was stunned when he heard the words.
"And have you forgotten the promise you made to Queen Hera and what you said to Jason? You said that he... is a true hero."
...
...
"I want to die, I want to die, I want to die, why me, why me!"
Outside of Colchis, inside a cave.
Jason ran out of the cave with a face full of horror, and with his appearance, the whole ground began to tremble, and then there were flames on his two heads and body, with copper hooves, and fire breathing from his nostrils. He was an extremely ferocious sacred cow, angry. rushed out from inside.
Each of them is as tall as four or five meters, which is about two or three times the normal height.
"Help, help, help Promise...Ah, by the way Promise is not here, then help Hercules, Actaeon!"
Jason, who was rolling and crawling with runny nose and tears, managed to avoid the collision of sacred bulls several times and took them out of the cave.
"Hahaha, well done Jason!"
