The scenery of the Mount of Mars is still good, you can see almost everything in the northwest of Athens, and you can see the Acropolis in the distance.

"Uncle, what's the top one?"

Telamon glanced there, "That's the Ares Court of the Mountain of War. ”

What the hell, has Athens advanced to this extent?

"Uncle, Athens has a king, right?"

Telamon laughed and said, "Of course, why don't you tell me which country has no king?"

"But since there are kings, what else do you need a court for?" Achilles wondered.

Telamon put away her laughter and explained in detail: "The king of Athens is not the same as the king of other countries. For example, on the island of Salamis, whether it is a tax or a war, as long as I say a word, the servants and soldiers will do what they have to do. ”

"But Athens was different, and the king, whether he wanted to start a war or do something important, had to let the people vote. For example, the trial of prisoners cannot be done by the king, but by the judges. ”

It seems a bit like ...... No, what kind of strange system is this?

However, the only thing that is certain is that the power of the king of Athens is not as great as that of other kings, and many things must be done with the opinion of the people.

But Achilles immediately thought of another question, and hurriedly asked: "Uncle, what if there is something that the king and the people disagree on?"

"Then it depends on the mood of the king, if he decides to respect the opinion of the people, then follow the opinion of the people, but if he insists on his own ideas, then there is another way. ”

"What is it?"

"Go to the Acropolis, worship the goddess Athena, and let the gods decide. ”

Oh, it turns out that Athena is the supreme ruler here, and the king is just a little master.

Telamon looked around and said, "Since the courtroom can't get in, let's go back." I've climbed the mountain and seen the scenery here, so how about going back and sleeping?"

Although Achilles had the heart to refuse, he was really tired from watching Telamon, so let's let him go first.

The two went back together, but this time they took Achilles to another way, and Thelamonte took Achilles to change the way, which was a reward for his "generosity".

A detour from the east, Telamon introduced everywhere as he had come.

"This is the temple of Athena, a ...... for the people to worship and pray for blessings."

"This is the arena where the athletic day is held......"

"It's a theater where people perform songs and dances on festival nights......

"This is a library of the history of Athens since its founding and the anecdotes of various places......

......

Achilles watched distractedly, and suddenly the library that Telamon said was really startled to him.

There is such a magical thing as a library in Athens!

Awesome!

Achilles looked at the three-story wooden building beside him, with many delicate carvings on the façade and several tall bronze statues of goddesses in the doorway. The gate was closed, and it was guarded by several soldiers.

Achilles could only recognize one Athena, because the Aegis shield she was carrying was so easy to recognize, very different from ordinary shields.

"Uncle, can we go in and have a look?"

Telamon glanced at the door of the library and shook his head, "It shouldn't be possible to enter, the library is generally only accessible to scholars with the king's permission, not ordinary tourists." ”

"Aren't you also a king? ”

Telamon laughed to herself, "How can the island of Salamis be compared to Athens? ”

Although Tramon was very powerful, in terms of political identity, he was indeed only the king of a small country, and he was not at the same level as the king of Athens.

"Let's go, let's go, hurry back, I'm sleepy. ”

Seeing that Achilles was still staring at the library and refusing to move, Telamon grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up like an eagle catching a chicken.

"I didn't expect you to be so diligent and studious, but I'll wait here until you grow up and become stronger, and can impress the King of Athens. ”

Telamon carried Achilles all the way home, like a prisoner arrested by the city guards, and the "whoosh" disappeared, making the passers-by on the street look sideways.

Although the Acropolis that I wanted to go to the most was not completed, and the mysterious library was not completed, but after visiting the God of War Mountain and so many scenic spots, to be honest, Achilles was quite satisfied.

After a day's rest in Athens, the next morning, Peleus and his party set off again.

Further south along the South Gate of Athens, a long wall leads directly to the port.

The sun is shining, and the spring in the south is much warmer than in the north.

The harbor of Athens was large, and there were many sea-going ships, all of which were wooden sailing ships, very different from the self-paddle of the Icaon.

Countless white-feathered seagulls soar between the blue sky and the sea, and when they are tired of flying, they stop on the side of the boat to rest. The sailors on the ship did not catch them, but would throw a little bread and small fish for them.

Telamon led everyone towards the dock, where a somewhat wealthy shipowner was standing beside a large sea ship and waiting anxiously.

Seeing Telamon coming, the shipowner immediately greeted him and said with a smile: "Mr. King Telamon, it is a great honor to serve you, the servant ...... yesterday."

Telamon interrupted him with a cold face and a wave of his hand, "Is the ship ready?"

The shipowner was shocked, he had long heard that the king of Salamis Island had a bad temper, and now he knew that he even beat a smiling man.

Some of the wealthy boat owners nodded busily, and said quickly: "The ship is ready, the sailors are all ready, the water and food are ......."

"Let them come down, I don't need sailors. ”

The owner of the ship was stunned for a moment, who will drive the ship if there is no need for sailors?

Seeing that the owner of the ship did not react, Telamon's face became even colder, "Can't you understand what I'm saying?!"

The shipowner was startled and hurriedly asked the servants behind him to inform the sailors on board to come down.

But then he rubbed his hands again, looked at Telamon with a flattering expression, rubbed his hands and said, "Mr. King, how can this ship sail back without sailors?"

Telamon glanced at him, "If you can't open it, then you won't open it, how about giving it to me?"

The owner of the ship cried and mourned, but forced out a happy expression, "I am so honored that you can see this ship." It's ......"

The shipowner glanced at Telamon cautiously, and the inflection sentence after the two words "that is" could not be spoken.

When the sailors had come down, Tramont did not even look at the owner of the ship, and took Peleus and his attendants aboard the ship.

The attendants took off their armor and one by one they became the most skilled sailors, hoisting sails, anchoring, and departing.

The owner of the boat looked at the big ship that was about to sail on the pier, and wanted to cry without tears, and his heart was dripping blood.

Standing on the deck, Telamon suddenly turned back and shouted to the shipowner, "Come to my island to sail, you will pay the tax in advance." ”

The ship's face immediately changed, and he shouted with great joy: "Thank you, Mr. King, and may the gods bless you." ”

Peleus stood beside Telamon, "Is it really okay for you to do this?"

Telamon turned back to him and smiled, "What can be done, let him settle in the island of Salamis, he still earns it." ”

Peleus smiled and didn't speak, and Telamon looked at him as if he didn't believe it, and immediately said: "Big brother, I'm not lying, although the island of Salamis is a little smaller, but in terms of the size of the harbor, even Athens is not as good as us." ”

"Oh, so powerful?" Peleus was a little interested.

"Of course. "Salamis, which connects the Aegean Sea to the east, Crete to the south, and all the points of the Peloponnese to the west, is much better than Athens," said Thelamon. ”

Telamon turned around, propped his arms on the side of the ship, looked at the blue sky, the sea and the white clouds, and the flying seagulls, and said: "The competition in the port of Salamis Island is fierce, and what merchant doesn't want to come and get a piece of the pie? ”

Peleus listened from the side, thoughtful. He was also a king now, but many things were still unfamiliar to him. Peleus is really a little incomprehensible to someone like Thelamon, who obviously made a ship and pulled people to build his own country, and then said that he had lost it.

"Okay, big brother, don't think about it, we should be able to go to the island in the afternoon, I will treat you to the most authentic sea fish soup for lunch today, it tastes absolutely good." ”

Peleus smiled helplessly at him, turned and walked towards the cabin, he didn't care about food or anything, he just had to fill his stomach.

The sun was rising, and there was no shelter on the deck, and it was all at once hot. However, Telamon did not enter the cabin, but crouched on the bow of the ship with a thin spear, staring at the sea, not moving.

"Uncle, what are you doing?" Achilles ran out of the cabin and stood behind Telamon.

"I'm going to catch a big fish. Tramon said without replying.

A fish about the height of Achilles suddenly jumped out of the waves and fell back into the sea, and Telamon only glanced at it, without making the slightest movement.

"Uncle, why don't you catch such a big fish......

"It's too small, I'm waiting for the big one. ”

The fish is almost 1.2 meters, isn't it? Achilles shook his head, he didn't catch it, it seemed that he was going to nibble on bread again at noon.

Achilles was about to go back when Telamon suddenly jumped up and jumped straight into the sea from the bow of the ship with his spear.

Achilles hurriedly rushed over to look, and suddenly a cloud of crimson blood suddenly appeared in the blue sea, and there were no raging waves, and there were no churning bubbles to be seen.

However, after seeing Telamon's combat power, Achilles did not believe that anything would happen to him.
