Type Moon Greece, I Really Don’t Want To Be a Hero! - Chapter 95

After all, Jason felt that Atalanta should jump up now and fight herself...

‘Oh, yes, I remembered, Atalanta swore to Artemis that she would not fight with herself. ’

Jason thought so, with a stunned look on his face, then nodded to Atalanta.

Atalanta frowned slightly, looked at Jason and said, "If that's the case, why didn't you just give the answer directly?"

"Because I'm not sure if it's going to actually let us go after I get the right answer, or it will deny my answer.

So I want you to discuss first and prepare. "

Atalanta was slightly stunned when she heard this, looked at Jason and said, "You mean, even if we answered the correct answer, it won't admit it?"

"This possibility is not ruled out...but this matter is actually easy to solve. When answering the question, we swear to the great moon **** Artemis, and seek Artemis to testify for us fairness. Shouldn't refuse.

I see it coming with confidence in its riddles. "

Atalanta sniffed Jason's words and didn't reply, just smacked her tongue lightly in secret...because she didn't know the answer yet.

Therefore, looking at Jason in front of her, this made her feel a certain sense of frustration.

After all, this is the suppression of IQ, which is more annoying than force...

But it's not Atalanta's fault, because Jason knows the answer to this riddle because of cheating.

Although Jason doesn't know the story of the Sphinx, he has an impression of this riddle.

Because this riddle is very famous, it will be adapted into various movies and animations in the future, and Jason, who has experienced the influence of the Internet age, has naturally heard it.

What animal walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night? When he has the most legs, it is also when he walks the slowest and the physical strength is the weakest...

The answer is people!

The morning corresponds to the baby, crawling and walking.

Noon corresponds to middle-aged people, standing and walking.

Night corresponds to old age, walking with a cane.

Of course, Atalanta didn't know all of this. She thought Jason was really that smart, and she knew the answer as soon as she heard it.

"So what we need to prevent is not this, but after we answer the riddle, will it attack us in anger! ... By the way, why are you here Atalanta?"

This is not near the city of Thebes, and Atalanta is from the side of Arcadia, the paradise of nature.

Therefore, Jason really did not expect that he would meet Atalanta here.

Atalanta was silent for a while, and because it was not a question that could not be answered, she said, "Actually, I was going to the Kingdom of Corinth and passed by here."

"Kingdom of Corinth...what are you doing there?"

Jason blinked, and at the same time there was still some doubts in his heart, because he somehow felt that the name of this kingdom seemed to be a bit of an impression.

"Because the Kingdom of Corinth is carrying out an impossible trial that pushes the boulder to the top of the mountain, and can also leave their name on the mountain, so many heroes are rushing there now... .."

There is only one chapter today, and there will be more to come.

Chapter 115 Half of the Golden Apple

Stop asking questions, the monster of the Sphinx, whose name is the Sphinx.

Originally derived from Egyptian mythology, it is also commonly found in Western mythology and Greek mythology.

In Greek mythology, the sphinx became a female evil, representing the punishment of the gods.

And putting the Sphinx here is none other than Jason's 'old acquaintance', the Olympian goddess Hera!

And this one involves the story of a tragic hero, Oedipus.

He was the son of King Laios and Queen Jocasta of Thebes in Greek mythology. Because of a curse, the hero named Oedipus killed his father and married him without knowing it. own mother.

But these have nothing to do with Jason.

He listened to Atalante's explanation now, and after knowing where Atalante was going, he couldn't help but be stunned for a while.

"No wonder...no wonder Lord Artemis wants to arrest me."

Jason understood that Atalanta had encountered the trouble of the Sphinx, the sphinx, indirectly because of herself.

In addition to the bow of the sky, it is strange that Artemis did not catch him.

Atalanta tilted her head when she saw Jason's stunned look.

"You also know that rumor? ... Could it be that the oracle given to you by the gods this time is for you to go there to accomplish the impossible feat?"

"Ah, it's not..." Jason shook his head.

Of course not, after all, this "ranking list" was originally created by Jason, so he naturally couldn't play that game.

"Actually that trial, um... was the result of an oracle given to me by a great goddess."

Jason hesitated for a while, and then glanced at the silver wooden stick that was still floating beside him, so he could only briefly explain the whole story to the slightly surprised Atalanta.

"So...then it's now spread throughout the continent, and the impossible trial that has attracted many heroes eager to go there, is it actually you who made it?"

After listening to Jason's words, Atalanta's eyes became very strange when he looked at Jason.

But she believed Jason's words.

To ask why...

"If I guessed correctly, it is said in King Kalia that the great hero Hercules who fell from the sky is you, and the great hero Hercules who killed the snake demon Lamia in the kingdom of Libya is also you. Bar."

Atalanta looked at Jason in front of him, and said lightly: "Wearing in white clothes, riding a Pegasus, carrying the oracles of the gods, like a hero who fell from the stars to the mortal world..."

"No!" Before Atalanta finished speaking, Jason interrupted directly, and looked at Atalanta with extremely sincere eyes, and said, "It's really not me, it's Hercules, I It's Jason...and it has nothing to do with me!"

Hearing this, Atalante, whose lips moved slightly, did not speak, but stared at Jason.

Those beautiful emerald eyes showed a pair of 'Do you think I'm stupid? ' look.

Who else but you is wearing white clothes, carrying the oracles of the gods, and riding around on a Pegasus!

But Atalanta didn't bother to reason with Jason about this, after all, it's obviously a fact.

Thinking of this, Atalanta couldn't help secretly smashing her tongue again.

This guy's body... how many secrets are there!

Because of the bad relationship with Jason, Atalanta vaguely noticed that even with what he just said, it is probably the tip of the iceberg about Jason!

Just as Jason shot the wild boar Calydon with one arrow, no one knows about it except Atalanta, and no one knows about Persephone and Demeter in those days.

Atalanta knew that there must be more, more things behind Jason that she didn't know.

And every one of them should be... very unusual!

If you change anyone, the name Jason and his actions should have been resounding across the continent long ago... Oh, by the way, this guy doesn't want to be a hero, and even resents heroes. on.

I don't want to be a hero, but I've been missed by the gods and I've been doing heroic things... As expected, as the goddess Artemis said, for him... I don't care at all. Understood.

Just when Atalante was thinking about this, she kept calling her, and seeing Jason who didn't respond, she couldn't help but waved her hand in front of her and said, "Atalanta...Atalanta "Hey, Atalanta, are you alright!"

Atalanta turned back to her senses and looked at Jason who was looking at him in confusion.

Looking at the blond and blue eyes, the tenderness on his face is gradually fading, and Jason, who is more heroic, can't help but tilt his head, and takes two steps back, stroking his hair next to his ear: "It's okay... The bow is fine, I will forgive you this time.

But remember, there is no next time! "

After speaking, Atalanta glared at Jason fiercely.

But Jason was very puzzled, because he felt that Atalanta was now very similar to a wild cat that was panicked, but still wanted to show its teeth and claws.

It doesn't feel as fierce as it used to be.

You must know that when they met before, Atalanta looked at Jason like a lioness who wanted to hunt the prey...

"Don't worry, because I already have the bow that shoots the arrow of the goddess Artemis, but this is really wrong, I should apologize to you, so..."

Then Jason said, and took out the remaining half of the golden apple from the silver bag.

Atalanta looked at the golden apple that Jason took out, and then pointed at it in a daze: "This is...?"

"This is the golden apple, which I got from the goddess Athena... I was going to give it to you as an apology, but my senior brother needed it as a material, so I used part of it, I hope you don't mind. "

Jason was embarrassed and handed the golden apple to Atalanta.

Atalanta looked at Jason for a while, thought about it, and finally took the half of the golden apple.

Seeing Atalante take over, Jason was relieved.

Because this means that Atalanta will not continue to pursue Jason for taking the bow of the Vault of Heaven, and Jason can be completely relieved.

Although Jason didn't want to deal with Atalanta very much at first, but because of Artemis, Jason naturally didn't want to have bad relations with Atalanta.

"Hee hee, little Atalanta, don't underestimate this half of the apple, it was a gift from the earth goddess Gaia for the marriage of the **** king Zeus and the queen of the gods Hera, but it is a very rare thing.

Little Jason knows that you like apples, and sincerely apologizes to you! "

PS: I want to go out for dinner with my sister, and come back in the evening to try to make up a chapter of 4,000 words.

Chapter 116 Ding! Congratulations to Atalanta for joining the team (4k)

Hearing the sound that suddenly sounded in his ear, Atalanta, who was slightly stunned, immediately reacted.

The other party is the moon **** Artemis!

And just after Artemis finished saying these words, the silver branch that had been floating beside Jason finally fell to the ground and turned into ordinary dead wood.

Apparently Artemis was satisfied with Jason's behavior, so he left with confidence.

"...Let's go." After being silent for a while, Atalanta, who didn't know what she was thinking, put away half of the golden apple.

"Since you already know the answer, then we don't need to wait until dawn. As for assuming it dares to attack us..."

Atalanta didn't finish what she said, but watching her clenching the bow of the Vault of Heaven as if preparing to hunt, Jason naturally guessed the answer.

Although Jason felt that one thing was better than one less thing, it would be best if there was no conflict, so he brought Atalanta to discuss it.

But at this moment, seeing that Atalanta had made up his mind, Jason, who opened his mouth, thought for a while, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Then he followed Atalanta and came to the Sphinx with the sphinx.

The Sphinx looked at Jason and Atalanta who came back after a while, and asked after a moment of stunned: "You are... Could it be that you just gave up because you couldn't think of an answer. Yet?

Don't worry, I said I'll give you one night, and I'll give you one night..."

"No, on the contrary, we already know the answer, Lord Sphinx."

Now that a decision has been made, Jason, who does not stray from the water, said to the Sphinx: "What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night?

The answer to this riddle...is people! "

"People?" Hearing Jason's answer, the Sphinx hadn't responded yet, and Atalanta looked at Jason in surprise.

Apparently such an answer...was not in her mind at all!

Just now Atalanta thought it was some monster she didn't know, but Jason happened to know about.

"That's right, people."

Jason nodded to Atalante, then looked at the Sphinx and said, "Because the early, middle and late in the Sphinx population actually correspond to human childhood, middle age, and old age.

When a person is young, he walks on four legs, in middle age, he walks two ways, and in his later years, he walks three ways with a cane... My answer is correct, Master Sphinx. "

"...I didn't expect that you actually guessed the answer." The sphinx with a lion face, after watching Jason's brief silence, admitted Jason's correct answer. .

Then he got up and moved out of the way.

"Now, you can go."

......So simple?

Atalanta tilted her head to look at Jason suspiciously.

Jason smiled at Atalante, turned around to hold Pegasus, nodded politely to Sphinx, and said, "If that's the case, then we'll leave Lord Sphinx."

After finishing speaking, Jason walked past the Sphinx with a doubtful Atalante, but at the moment when they turned their backs to the Sphinx.
