Hercules!

Achilles was shocked by the name, and the friend that Telamon said was actually him!

The son of Zeus and Alcmene, the strongest demigod in the world of Greek mythology!

A fierce man who once carried the sky with the body of a demigod!

No wonder Theramon said that Peleus couldn't beat him, based on Hercules' peak combat power, even if Peleus and the Telamon brothers were tied together, it would only be enough to eat Hercules' punch.

This is a man who has been working miracles all his life!

Thankfully, he's dead now.

No, that doesn't seem to be considered death, here, only the soul entering the underworld is considered death, and Hercules is not.

As far as Achilles knew, Hercules did not die of an illness, but of a poison in his body.

As for how he was poisoned, that's another story that can't be shortened.

In short, Hercules was accidentally poisoned, and it is said that the pain caused by the poison is unbearable even to the gods, and it will continue to eat away at the power of man.

After being poisoned, Hercules could not bear the constant pain and weakness, so he had a huge stack of wood piled up, on which he lay and burned to his death.

Zeus was very fond of Hercules, and after Hercules' death, he made an exception to bring his soul to Mount Olympus, molded Hercules into a god, and named him Hercules.

There are many people who become gods in the underworld after death, but there is only one Hercules who becomes a god in the heavenly realm!

Telamon did not know this, because according to the information he received, Hercules died of an illness and was cremated after death according to his will.

Looking at Telamon's slightly sad look, a huge sense of disobedience crawled into Achilles' heart.

He had only ascended to heaven, and if he reappeared in front of Telamon one day, wouldn't it be to scare him to death.

Forget it, think about it for a while, don't tell Telamon, because I can't explain it at all.

The two men fell silent and sat for a moment, when Telamon suddenly remembered that she seemed to be trying to get Ajax up.

"Achilles, you eat first, I'll go and wake up Ajax. ”

"Okay. Achilles answered for a moment and decided to feed the lion cub first, after all, he hadn't brushed his teeth and washed his face yet.

At breakfast, Thetis also came down, and she and Achilles sat on the right side of the table, and the little lion lay in the middle...... of the ground.

Tramon wasn't too afraid of Thetis, but she was a little more careful, not like calling the maids in her own palace.

On the contrary, Ajax seemed to be very curious about the lion cub, and he turned his head to look at the lion cub from time to time, but it seemed that in order to maintain his "cold" image, he didn't ask anything.

Ajax saw that Eramon saw it, and he patted Ajax on the head and said, "There's nothing to be curious about, it's just a lion, even dragons were seen when Dad was on the Argo." ”

Hearing Telamon say about the Argo, Achilles immediately became curious.

"Uncle Thelamon, can you tell me about what happened on the Argo?"

Although the deeds of the Argo have been told in the land of Achaia, only the fifty heroes of the time know what happened.

Ajax also stared at Telamon with a serious face, and he had never heard his father say anything risky.

"Hehe, I want to know, finish breakfast first. Telamon smiled, these two little ones wanted him to tell a story without eating, didn't they see Thetis sitting next to him?

Achilles and Ajax hurriedly took two bites of bread, then stopped in unison.

Thetis shook her head helplessly and went upstairs with the lion cub in her arms.

Seeing Thetis go upstairs, Telamon relaxed and decided to tell some stories to give the two little ones some insight.

"The Argonaut adventure was initiated by a prince named Iason, whose uncle told him to go to the far east in search of the Golden Fleece, but he was alone and unable to reach the east. He was very distressed by this, and the matter was later ...... by heaven."

Telamon paused abruptly and continued, "...... Discovered by a god, she admires Iason, and decides to help him on his adventure. ”

"Father, who is a certain god?" Ajax immediately asked curiously.

"This dad can't talk about it. ”

Telamon didn't say it, but Achilles knew, it was Hera, the queen of heaven!

"The god had chosen forty-nine of the strongest and most illustrious young heroes in the land of Achaia and sent an invitation in the name of Iason. ”

"Daddy, is that you, too?" Ajax listened to this for the first time, almost becoming a curious baby.

"That's right. At that time, I, your uncle, and many, many other heroes came. ”

Telamon squinted and recalled, "In addition to me and Peleus, the great hero Hercules and his friend Xulas were among the others, including Admetus, Melagros, Oleus and the heroine Atalanta, and the sons of the god of the north wind, Kares and Cetes. There were many, many more, forty-nine people. ”

When it comes to the god of the north wind, Telamon does not shy away from it, generally speaking, only the most powerful main god cannot be mentioned at will, and the god of the north wind, Boreas, obviously can't reach this level.

"Among us there is a very clever shipwright, named Argo. With the help of the goddess Athena, at the foot of Mount Perion, he built the largest sea ship in the world at that time, and in honor of his exploits, the great ship was named after him, which was the Argo. ”

Mount Polyon is the place where Peleus and Thetis later married, and Achilles still remembers this Thetis very well.

But soon he thought of another question, and immediately asked, "Uncle Thelamon, I remember that my mother told me that there is no river around Mount Perion, and that it is far from the sea, how did you get the Argo into the sea?"

Telamon immediately laughed and said, "We were fifty heroes at the time, what kind of ship can't be lifted?"

Well, so it was. Achilles wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"And although the Argo is large, the wood used is very peculiar, specially sent by the goddess Athena, and it is very light. After the Argo was built, we carried it to the beach. ”

A proud smile appeared on Telamon's face as he said this, "At that time, after worshipping the god of the sea, the Argo set off. Iasonn was in command, Typhas was at the helm, Hercules sat on the deck in the fore cabin, my eldest brother and I guarded the aft cabin, and the others were in charge of paddling. ”

It turned out that Telamon was still a managerial class.

Achilles looked at him in surprise, it seemed that Peleus and Telamon were indeed quite powerful. Being able to get one of the few important positions among the fifty heroes is impossible to do without being recognized by the majority.

"Uncle Theramon, are you one of the five strongest men on the Argo?"

"Say the top five...... It's a little too crazy, in the top ten. That being said, Achilles still had a faint look of smugness on Telamon's face, and the top ten was quite remarkable.

In fact, this is also asked by whom, and if Achilles asked, Telamon was a little more modest. If Ajax had asked him this question, he would probably have said, "Daddy is the strongest...... No, second ...... Uh, the third strongest.

Achilles used to wonder why Menotius and Peleus went on an adventure together, but the Mirmidons wanted to elect Peleus as king, and no one ever mentioned Menotios.

Now it seems that the status is still different, and these two people are not at the same level at all.

As for why his status is different, in the final analysis, it is because of his strength, Pelius is stronger than Menotios, so his status is higher.

"At that time, after we went to sea, it took only one day to sail to the island of Remnos...... by the wind and waves sent by the god of the sea."

As Telamon was about to continue, there was a sudden knock at the door.

"Who?" asked Achilles, as the little master of the place, at once.

"Your Royal Highness, there is an attendant from the island of Salamis, who has asked to see their king. It was the voice of the guard of the Makaon family.

Achilles glanced at Telamon and said, "Let him in." ”

Telamon frowned, what are these squires looking for him? Didn't they all say in advance, there is nothing to disturb?

It wasn't long before a man in armor pushed the door open and walked in, still holding something in his hand.

Tramon's face sank naturally, not because he was targeting anyone, but because he had always been like this in front of outsiders.

The attendant walked not far in front of Telamon, knelt down on one knee, presented the object in his hand with both hands, and said, "Your Majesty, here are two letters, forwarded from the island of Salamis. ”

Tera took the letter expressionlessly, but she was a little puzzled.

Last time, he left for Peleus without waiting for a reply from Iason, but even if it was, there should only be one, and where did the other one come from?

After taking the letter, Telamon did not immediately open it, but put it on the table and said, "I know, you go down." ”

The attendant answered, and immediately retreated.

After the attendant left, Telamon reached out again and picked up a scroll of letters, opened it and saw that it was indeed from Iason.

"...... of Telamon And some ...... Postponement ......"

Telamon looked at the letter, occasionally spitting out a word or two that he didn't understand.

In his letter, Iason said that the wedding had been postponed until early summer because he had recently received letters from some old friends saying that they would also be attending his wedding.

Telamon looked at it, and suddenly a familiar name came into his eyes.

Telamon was shocked, he seemed to know how to let Peleus go to Iason's wedding!
