9. Truth
What Aetheus said was, of course, a lie, and although it was true, it had been years since then.
At this time, when he mentioned these things about the old sesame seeds and rotten grains, Aetes was also a little embarrassed in his heart, recalling the past times when he was the tyrant of Colchis, he really couldn't help but slap himself twice.
Now it seems that what he did in the past was to push himself to his death again, and if it weren't for Qi Wuru, his country, his father, and his daughter would all be in vain today.
Niu is also there, Tian is also there, but his dragon teeth are not so many, and looking at Yi Asong's equipment full of divinity, even if the dragon tooth inventory is still sufficient, the dragon tooth soldiers that can be sown are probably not the enemy of Yi Asong, who is fully armed today.
However, since his daughter has made this plan, she must be sure. Besides, even if Iason was asked to take the Golden Fleece, there was no problem, so Aetes didn't have much to worry about the whole time.
"Well, then, I will not be accompanied, there will be enough food and wine at the banquet for you to enjoy, so enjoy yourself! Don't die in the trials of tomorrow......"
Medea performed her magic and disappeared into the hall with Aetes.
Watching the two of them leave, Iason's handsome white face was almost black as a round briquette, not to mention that he already knew the truth of everything, he could almost predict the difficulty of this level, he was not stupid, the gods of Olympus gave him this equipment not for play.
The last person to get so many artifacts was first sent to the Invisible Island to kill the Medusa the Gorgon, then killed the giant, and finally overthrew the North Sea Monster, which seems to be extremely beautiful, but in fact it is full of dangers.
Iason didn't know that instead of killing Medusa, Perseus was half-dead on the invisible island, and if it weren't for an Orion to prevent the disaster, if it weren't for the fact that his father was Zeus, the god king of Olympus, Perseus would not have known that he died in that corner on the invisible island.
Although the latter stories are true, the story of killing Medusa is actually just a rumor made up by the gods, after all, the face is there, and the gods can't tell the world that the warrior they chose didn't even kill a monster.
As for the so-called Medusa head used by Perseus, it is actually a fake forged by the gods, although the petrified magic eye cannot be copied, but it is still no problem to make a "fake head" with petrification effect with the forging level of Hephaestus to deceive mortals.
On the other side of the invisible island, the real situation is that the small island has been completely covered by the gods with divine power, forming a paradise similar to the secret realm.
Because of Qi Wuce's support for the three Gorgonne sisters behind his back, the gods of Olympus did not dare to anger Qi Wuce, the great god, for the sake of the three minor gods, and in the face of a monster that the sea god Poseidon could kill with one shot, Olympus really did not dare to offend directly.
Therefore, the three Gorgons sisters are still alive and well, especially Sister R, who has a tendency to develop towards illness, but Qi Wuce is unaware of this.
With a dark face, Iason looked at his teammates who were eating and drinking, his heart was full of worries about the future, and the food in front of him became tasteless.
He found himself beginning to regret his recklessness, and he even wondered how good Hercules and the warrior named Atalanta had not left.
Regret is useless after all, there is only one path ahead, and it is not a question of whether he can take it or not, but how he can find a glimmer of life from this desperate road full of thorns and poisonous snakes that leads straight to death.
In the night, Iason, who had been thinking for a long time, gathered all his brothers who had come to Colchis with him through the ordeal, his brow and eyes as bitter as the ice of the Far North, and his mood as heavy as the mountains of Olympus.
Looking at the people gathered together with a blank face, he was so painful, because these were all brothers who had shared weal and butter with him, and the road ahead was so difficult and dangerous, he couldn't bear to drag these brothers to die with him.
After a long silence, Iason finally spoke: "My brothers, we have enjoyed beauty together on the island of Remnos, and the taste is unforgettable; We have fought giants in the land of the Dollianas, and it is truly a life of death; We also fought against the king's army in Pebrucia; We have fought to the death with the ugly and vicious woman's bird, and even the two great rocks have not taken our lives: we have crossed the oceans of moodiness, we have had joys and sorrows, and we have overcome hardships and dangers together......"
"And tomorrow! Those will be the last trials we will face on this glorious journey, and even the gods have praised us and bestowed countless artifacts on me, the leader. ”
"But! I know! And I have to tell it, even if I offend the gods! ”
"We!"
"We're just pawns used by the gods of Olympus to play with some monster in Colchis!"
Iason stopped, he glanced at his brothers, and in their faces he saw confusion, he saw fear, they were different from him, who were burdened with hatred, they were just a band of warriors gathered here by the empty words of the gods.
To put it nicely, they are called warriors, but to put it mildly, they are actually outcasts in the eyes of the gods of Olympus, because there is a man who tells him all the secrets.
He knew what kind of monster was behind Colchis they were up to, he knew that he had been kicked in the head once, he had survived by the gods, and he even knew why some of the demigods in the team had left without saying goodbye a few days ago.
Because, what lies ahead of them is a dead end that doesn't work!
Behind Colchis is the real monster who killed Poseidon, the king of the sea, beat Hades, and scared Zeus, the king of the gods, to act rashly!
On that day, when the mysterious man told him everything, he dismissed it as just a liar used by Colchis to sway him, but when the mysterious man dragged the dying god of war Ares to him with his heels, combined with the departure of all the demigods except Poseidon, even if he had any doubts, it could only turn into fear.
Tomorrow is the time of death......
Therefore, he tried his best to offend the gods and tell all the truth to his brothers.
