Chapter 409: Departure and the Moon God
Time flies.
Half a year has passed since Iasonn and Argo left Colchis.
During this time, Zheng Shu stayed in Colchis according to his previous plan, instructing Medea on the magic circle of the resurrection gods and various knowledge related to the Holy Grail War.
Half a year is enough time for him to teach everything he knows, and the rest can only rely on Medea's own talent to perfect little by little.
During this period, there were no accidents, and it was always calm, the only thing that surprised Zheng Shu was that Yi Asong also did something that he never expected.
As the captain of the Argonauts, the heroes of many heroes, Iason, on his way back to his country, began to sing the praises of the journey to various poets.
This would have been a normal thing for many heroes, because many heroes in ancient Greece relied on this way to become famous, and the other heroes of the Argo did this work more diligently than him, but there was Zheng Shu in the story he passed out.
Although he could not promote Zheng Shu's heroic deeds due to the agreement between the two, he deliberately made it clear that Zheng Shu was the most important presence in this trip.
Of course, the other heroes will have opinions about this, after all, if Yi Song does this, it means that a large part of the fame they have gained will be plundered by Zheng Shu.
But no one dared to come forward to oppose it, the reason was very simple, because Zheng Shu was really able to kill the demon dragon.
If someone asks about dragon slaying, then the heroes must have no scruples about putting their mouths open, saying that they are just slaying dragons, of course there is no problem, I am sure that it will be okay.
But when they really met the dragon, most of them were intimidated, at least when Iason was in Colchis, he never saw a hero of the Argo who really dared to recommend himself, saying that he dared to help him kill the dragon and take the Golden Fleece directly.
But Zheng Shu can.
The premise of the existence of keyboard warriors is that their lives can be guaranteed, but in ancient Greece in the god era, if someone dares to brag too badly, not to mention Zheng Shu himself, dragons will come to you along the "network cable".
This is no joke, there are real examples.
Fortunately, for some reason, Yi Asong did not emphasize Zheng Shu's exploits, but kept promoting a thing invented by Zheng Shu called "instant noodles".
Since the exploits have not been "plundered" too much, the heroes, although a little dissatisfied, can bear it, and in order to make their adventures seem more real, they will also add Zheng Shu's position in the epic praising themselves.
Whether it's clinking glasses with Zheng Shu when drinking or chatting with him when bragging, no matter what, you have to be with Zheng Shu and appear very familiar with each other, so as to improve the authenticity of your poems as much as possible.
When the information reached Colchis Island, Zheng Shu also had to be amazed by the wisdom of Iason, and just used a method to not only fulfill his last request, but also pull other heroes to build momentum for him.
From now on, whenever someone mentions this epic trip, they will inevitably mention themselves, and when they mention themselves, they will inevitably think of instant noodles.
In this way, the time for unlocking the first skill in the god generation has been greatly advanced.
However, after half a year of spreading, Zheng Shu can feel that the progress of unlocking his first skill has gradually slowed down from the high-speed improvement at the beginning, and it seems that the discussion about this epic trip has slowed down.
In addition, the teaching of Medea has been completed, so Zheng Shu feels that it is time for him to leave.
It is also for this reason that Zheng Shu is now standing on the coast with a bag of luggage.
Looking at the endless ocean, Zheng Shu took a deep breath, and then his expression suddenly became helpless.
"If I'm not mistaken, you're here to see me off, right?"
"Of course, do you have any grievances?"
"Alas......"
Zheng Shu sighed and turned his head to look at Medea in a black magic robe.
"Are you sure you're really just here to see me off? I always felt like you were going to run away with me. ”
"Of course I can run with you if you want."
Medea's tone sounded like a joke, but the package behind her that was taller than herself didn't look like a joke.
"No way!"
Zheng Shu very resolutely rejected Medea's idea, and put his hand into her magic robe and covered her head.
"You have your own family, so you can't make a decision so easily, if you abandon your family relationship for more than ten years just because of a whim, wouldn't it seem too sad?"
Although the tone is very gentle, Medea, who has been with Zheng Shu for half a year, knows very well that the person in front of him represents his firmest belief when he uses this tone.
"I ...... It's not a whim. ”
Medea lowered her head unwillingly, her hands tightly together, she knew very well that if the other party did not agree, it was impossible for her to follow.
"There's no need to show such an expression, haven't we already reached an ending that everyone is happy with?"
Zheng Shu pinched Medea's face casually.
"Iason has received the Golden Fleece, and can return home to obtain the throne he deserves, and your father has not lost the treasures of his country, and no one will ever worry about Colchis's Golden Fleece, and even the dragon has regained his freedom because he has no mission. Isn't that the perfect ending? ”
"But it's not fair to you, you don't get anything!"
Medea didn't dodge Zheng Shu's pinched face, but stared at his eyes.
"You've come all the way here, and what have you gained? An inevitable deathmatch? And in this adventure, it is clear that you played the most important role, but whether it is glory, wealth or women, you have not obtained, and you even deliberately let that guy help you hide ......"
"Who said that I had not been paid for myself, did I? We say good deals, gifts that are thousands of years later. ”
"You idiot!" Medea suddenly became very angry, "You can ask for payment from your father, and even I can give you more, but you have given up this right!" ”
As she spoke, Medea's voice became smaller and smaller, and her face became redder and redder.
She naturally likes Zheng Shu, or it can be said that Zheng Shu's wisdom and courage will be attracted to it as long as she is a girl in this era, not to mention that Zheng Shu shows more than that.
Whether it's the astonishing knowledge that has been revealed in these six months of guidance, or the unusually gentle character compared to other heroes of this era, or the sense of reliability that can handle everything with a single gesture, to put it mildly.
All of the above, coupled with Zheng Shu's face that has become more and more handsome with the improvement of strength, not only Medea, but almost the entire Colchis woman has fallen.
Medea does seem to hate muscles on the surface, but in reality, she hates the reckless and brainless personality shared by those who have muscles.
Sometimes Medea even fantasizes that it would be good if Zheng Shu really wanted to take away the Golden Fleece, so that she could leave here with him as an "accomplice".
Later, Medea had other "plans".
Although Zheng Shu kept saying that helping Corsky solve this incident was a deal, both Medea and her father knew very well that the price between the two sides was not equal.
In fact, even if it was just for the knowledge provided by Zheng Shu, they would be willing to complete the transaction, after all, it was advanced magic knowledge thousands of years later, although there was a slight deviation due to changes in the environment, but the value was amazing enough.
So for Aetes, he always felt that Colchis owed Zheng Shu a favor.
Coupled with Zheng Shu's ability to solve the demon dragon alone, as a king, Aetes will inevitably want to recruit Zheng Shu.
And as the only princess of Colchis who is not married, as long as Zheng Shu shows a little intention, even if Medea is the favorite daughter of Aetes, he will not hesitate to marry her, and Medea has been looking forward to this day.
But she miscalculated again, Zheng Shu was completely different from other ancient Greek heroes, he didn't want anything like glory and wealth that others were pursuing, as if just helping him could make him feel happy.
Zheng Shu was also a little helpless in his heart, of course he could understand Medea's intentions.
Obviously, he has paid great attention to making the two sides get along very equally as much as possible, but he doesn't know what he did wrong, and the girl's eyes are getting worse and worse day by day, which is also the reason why Zheng Shu left Colchis in a hurry.
What kind of things Medea can do after she is completely caught in a relationship, Zheng Shu knows very well in mythological stories, in order to ensure that it will not harm people, Zheng Shu chooses to leave early.
"Alright, don't look so sad, you should go back too, or your father will go crazy."
Zheng Shu dragged a small boat from the reef on the side and put it on the sea, waved at Medea and stepped onto the boat, making a final farewell.
"Don't worry, I'll come back to see you if I have the chance, if I really don't have a chance, won't we still see each other in thousands of years? So don't miss it too much, we'll meet again one day. ”
"You idiot!"
Driven by the magic power, Zheng Shu quickly left the shore even if he didn't swing the boat, and soon turned Colchis Island into a vague dot.
"From now on, there will be only Medea, the princess of Corski, and there will be no more betrayal of the witch Medea. Enjoy your life without worrying about dying in your homeland. ”
How happy would Medea be if it weren't for Iason?
This discussion, which was widely circulated by many moon friends before Zheng Shu's crossing, made Zheng Shu realize it at this moment.
Although I haven't seen the final result yet, I guess it won't be such a miserable life anymore.
"You guy...... Holy Grail War? ”
Standing on the beach, Medea, who could no longer see Zheng Shu's figure at all, seemed to have thought of something, her originally sad face slowly changed, and a resolute expression appeared on her face.
"Meeting after thousands of years? Just what the doctor ordered! Wait for Zheng Shu, I'm not a good girl. ”
Determined, Medea no longer stood still in a daze, but turned around very decisively and headed towards her laboratory - she was ready for a reunion thousands of years later.
……
……
"Hmm...... So what do I do next? ”
Sitting on the boat, looking at the endless sea around him, a blank expression appeared on Zheng Shu's face.
To put it simply, he was lost.
Originally, Zheng Shu planned to rely on the induction of his bone vial to discern the direction and go back to the mysterious island first, but because of the previous war between the gods and the giant of Guigantes, the sea god Forkus seems to have strengthened his ability to protect the mysterious island, and even the induction of Zheng Shu and the bone vial has become blurred, and he can only know a relatively general direction, and he can't know too specific locations.
Fortunately, Zheng Shu is not completely helpless, he can wait until the evening, and then use the blessing of the moon god to find a specific direction.
Or maybe it's the other way around.
"Do you want to sacrifice?"
Zheng Shu looked at the boat he was sitting on, and a look of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.
I think that when he first escaped from the mysterious island, he also took a similar boat, and at that time he relied on the sacrifice of Poseidon to escape.
"Then let's sacrifice Lord Poseidon, and reminisce about the past after a long absence."
Zheng Shu was interested, stood up from the boat, and prepared to depict the lines of the sacrifice.
And then......
Rumble!
"it!"
A huge splash suddenly exploded on the surface of the sea where Zheng Shu was, and a figure appeared behind him at an extraordinary speed and hit his waist.
Zheng Shu himself was directly bombed to the bottom of the sea with the boat in a hurry, but fortunately, Zheng Shu's defense was strong enough, so he saved his waist in this impact.
But the boat had no choice, Zheng Shu could only watch his boat turn into pieces and be washed away by the current.
If it was an enemy, Zheng Shu would probably have started to fight back now, but unfortunately, it was not the enemy who attacked him this time.
Therefore, Zheng Shu could only silently mourn for his boat, and then launched a magic spell and quickly flew to the sea.
Crash!
As the water fell from his body, Zheng Shu and the figure behind him floated in mid-air.
"Ahem, Master Artemis, may I ask what happened to you all of a sudden?"
Expressionlessly, he looked behind him, where Artemis, the goddess of the moon, was holding her waist and crying, her long white hair fluffy and messy like weeds.
It is obvious that Artemis, the goddess of the moon, is the culprit who "attacked" Zheng Shu just now.
Although Artemis's face and figure are very good, Zheng Shu is not the slightest happy about her sticking to her body, and even feels that her scalp is numb.
Just kidding, after coming to ancient Greece for so long, Zheng Shu certainly knew that because of the accident at birth, Artemis and the sun god Apollo were superimposed sisters.
It's unfortunate that Apollo guy is a combination of sister control and sister control, it is no exaggeration to say that he really wants to provoke the moon god Artemis, and Apollo with the double blessing of sister control and sister control even dares to fight Zeus.
If Apollo saw Artemis and his current appearance, Zheng Shu suspected that there would be two more solar cannons on his head in the next moment.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa......"
Seeing that Artemis was still just holding himself and crying without speaking, Zheng Shu was helpless, I don't know if it was an illusion, he had even felt the biting chill coming from afar.
For the sake of his own life, Zheng Shu could only forcibly separate her from himself.
"Where are you from, Nobita, even if you want to ask me, you might as well explain the reason!"
"Oh......"
Hearing Zheng Shu say this, the moon god finally stopped crying, knelt on the ground and cried and told the reason.
