The white clouds faded away, revealing the blue sky behind them.

Achilles had now run to the foot of the mountain, and not far in front of him was a verdant grove, and beyond was a white mist-shrouded void.

Very tired and tired, Achilles's originally white face was already red, sweat was like a waterfall, his hair, sweat and clothes were already glued to his body, and the torch he was holding in his hand now did not know where it was lost on the road.

There is a faint red sun rising behind the blue sky, and although the sun has not yet arrived, it is not too late.

I guess I lost.

Achilles laughed to himself, Charon told him to follow the road to the top of the mountain, but now, where should he go?

This is indeed the foot of the mountain.

Holding on and taking a few steps forward, Achilles really couldn't walk, and he wanted to go to the grove at the end to have a look, maybe it was this meaningless climbing, the secret was there.

But I really don't have the strength to do it.

Achilles struggled a few more steps forward, sat down on a large, polished black rock by the side of the road, and lay down on his back.

Less than a kilometer further afield is a grove, and in a few seconds, the sun will be pouring down.

Achilles could almost see the glow of the red sun gradually turning golden, and then more and more dazzling.

"The sun or something, it's really the most annoying. ”

Achilles lay on that big black rock, with only the blue sky and the sun in his eyes, and muttered to himself.

"If you think that the things in the world that you can't change are worth hating, you can only blame yourself for not being strong enough. ”

This is...... The voice of Charon?

Achilles immediately sat up and was amazed.

It was a bare brown earth, unusually flat as if it had been flattened by something, and not far from him on the left-hand side was a tall black tree.

Under the tree, a tall figure was facing away from the sun with his arms folded, his face obscured by his messy brown hair.

Who is it if it's not Charon?

"This ...... This is?"

Achilles was completely stunned.

"As you can see, this is the top of Pondath Mountain. ”

Caron took two steps to the side, pacing slowly at the top of the hill as if he were walking.

Achilles jumped down from the stone and suddenly felt a glare in front of his eyes, and the sun shone into his eyes.

"Congratulations, Achilles, you are one step ahead of the sun. ”

Charon walked up to Achilles and shielded him from the sun.

A slight smile appeared under Charon's hair-covered face, "Achilles, you should call me a teacher." ”

That's it?

Achilles came back to his senses, immediately bowed his head and saluted, and said politely: "Teacher." ”

"Doesn't that seem strange?"

Charon took another step and paced around the top of the mountain.

At the top of the hill is a circular platform here, like an awl that has been sharpened and pointed, and the area is very large.

Achilles followed Caron, and he felt a little strange now.

"Teacher, wasn't I at the foot of the mountain just now? Why did I suddenly reach the top of the mountain?"

"Do you remember the stone you were lying on just now?"

Charon turned his head and pointed to the middle of the mountaintop, where there was also a large black rock.

"On that stone, there is a teleportation array that I personally burned, and as long as you are on it, you will be teleported to the top of the mountain. ”

"Uh...... But how do you know that I will rest on that rock, teacher, and what if I run to the grove?"

"From the foot of the mountain to the Pingdath Passage, I carved a total of twenty teleportation arrays, all of which are in the most accessible places for you, and if you can't trigger any of them, then your luck is really bad. ”

Charon turned his head, seemed to glance at Achilles, and said, "As for the woods, if you really run in, then you can see the real appearance of the teleportation array, instead of lying on the stones and coming here in a daze." Because that forest is the last teleportation array I set up. ”

Achilles simply wanted to give Charon a fist salute, and the society ...... Society.

"If you had come from the woods today, I'd have given you a perfect score, and for now, I'll give you a pass. ”

Achilles nodded again and again in the back but didn't speak, he had already given up, and it was already a surprise to be inexplicably qualified.

"Actually, I watched your every move today, starting from your departure from Piliwin. ”

Charon walked to the big black stone, turned around and said, "Achilles, you don't have to be nervous, sit down and let's talk." ”

Achilles nodded, walked over and sat down on the stone, he was indeed a little nervous now.

According to what Charon said, in fact, at the beginning of his run towards the mountain, Charon also knew.

"Achilles, I told you to take the big road, do you remember?"

"Yes, but at that time I saw that the road was down, and the paver also said that the path was up, and I went towards the road at first, but then I ......."

Charon did not interrupt Achilles, but Achilles grew quieter and quieter, and finally stopped.

In any case, he did suspect Charon, and there was nothing to quibble about.

Seeing that Achilles stopped talking, Charon continued to speak.

"At first you did what I said, down the hill, and even if the pavers Barçaylos swore to you, you would believe what I said. But then you were shaken when you saw the fulfillment of what the pavers said, and I wanted to ask you......"

Charon seemed to glance down at Achilles, "Did you know Barthaylos before?"

Achilles shook his head, "I don't know." ”

"Then why did you choose to believe it? even to doubt me, an elder who is related to you by blood? even if you knew it before, how can you be sure that it is not deceiving you?"

Achilles bowed his head and whispered, "It swore an oath." ”

In this world, swearing to the gods is a very serious matter.

"That's the first thing I'm going to teach you today, Achilles, not all oaths can be trusted! If it's an enemy's oath, even if he swears to Mother Earth, he can't believe it!"

Achilles was a little puzzled, "Why? Isn't the oath fulfilled?"

"You have to be clear that the fulfillment of the oath is conditional on the oath being broken by the oath-taker. If you have an enemy who tricks you into letting down your guard with an oath, and then turns around and kills your wife and children, what if he is punished by the oath?"

Achilles was stunned, what Charon said made a lot of sense.

"Achilles, you must know that it is the most stupid thing to do to doubt your friends and believe your enemies!"
