Jason still had doubts, but he could no longer get an answer from Hercules.

He looked towards the highest point in the city, where the temple and the royal palace were located.

There, there are his friends.

Jason felt that he would find the answer there.

......

"Huh? What do you mean you think I'm unreliable and therefore can't tell me the truth?"

Looking at Teacher Chiron, who looked pale but had obviously recovered and was smiling at him.

And Asclepius, who still looked the same, staring at him calmly.

Finally, there was Russell, the person he had always wanted to see, who had spent the longest time with Teacher Chiron, but whose life trajectory was completely different from his.

"Asklepios, are you teasing me?"

He had no idea what was going on, but his good friend, Asclepius, whose medical skills were said to be able to chase souls from the underworld, did not want to tell him the truth.

Jason was full of resentment about this.

In response to Jason's questioning, Asclepius simply shook his head: "The truth is too cruel, I think it will be hard for you to accept."

"Try to underestimate me again!?"

Jason slammed the table on the spot, his face full of dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Asclepius remained silent for a moment before saying, "This is a matter of life and death. If you want to know, you must undergo a severe test. Pain and suffering are inevitable in this test."

"Ah this..."

78. A test? A honey trap? (1/18)

"Ah this..."

Jason glanced around in confusion.

What's a matter of life and death?

Is there anything so big that even Hercules and Sisyphus cannot solve it together?

Together with his strongest commander, Captain Argo, the three of them could be said to be invincible.

How could such a life-and-death matter suddenly arise?

"That's it."

Jason shook his head decisively. He would not be led by Asclepius.

"What kind of tribulation is this? How come it's similar to what the Golden Fleece said back then? If you don't want to talk about it, forget it. I'll find another way to find out..."

After saying this, Jason was about to turn around and go out to find Hercules to ask him some questions.

Chiron sipped the clear tea and said casually, "I told you not to do this kind of thing. Just tell Jason. There's no need for any hardships, trials, or temptations of honey traps. I trust my students..."

Jason's departure suddenly stopped.

Honey trap?

Um, does he mean to endure the torture of hardships, the challenges of tests, and the temptation of honey traps?

That's exactly what a hero should experience.

After a moment's hesitation, Jason turned again for Asclepius.

"I didn't expect the test you prepared, Asclepius, to be so challenging!"

Jason accepted this challenge!

Looking at Jason, who was excitedly following Asclepius and constantly encouraging himself, Russell said with emotion, "Mr. Chiron's teaching ability seems to have improved again."

"Teach students in accordance with their aptitude and provide good guidance..."

It seemed that after experiencing the pain beyond death, Chiron's temperament became much more relaxed, and he was not embarrassed to use such a deceptive trick.

After all, in his impression, the strict teacher's attitude towards Jason was completely useless.

If he took that attitude, Jason would only complain, "There's nothing more I can learn from you, and I can't learn it anyway!"

Is this something a teacher can tolerate?

If a student tells you that there is nothing to learn from you and he can't learn it anyway.

Chiron couldn't stand it anyway.

Now, he seemed to have found a way to guide Jason.

"but......"

Chiron looked at Russell, puzzled.

"Is this honey trap test really true?"

He only knew that Asclepius raised this point because he wanted to capture Jason to help him collect some rare medicines.

Even try the medicine and talk about the various feelings after taking the medicine, including pain.

In short, he is a tool.

But the honey trap...

Chiron still didn't quite understand, but just cooperated with the two of them.

Russell nodded and said naturally, "Of course it's true. It's a queen named Percy Burrough, and she even gave birth to a child for him."

Even the idea of ​​Asclepius capturing Jason as a tool was suggested by Percy Bore.

After all, a woman will feel a lot of resentment when she knows that her husband doesn't care about her and her children at all and doesn't even ask about them.

"Jason actually has a child?"

Chiron was a little dazed.

The child he raised actually has his own child.

The passage of time and the alternation of generations all made Chiron's heart waver.

After slowly letting out an inexplicable sigh, Chiron said, "So, back to the point, Sisyphus, what do you need me to do?"

"Countless heroes have worshipped you. In Greece, you have taught countless generations of heroes. Your name is more deeply rooted in people's hearts than mine. Under your tutelage, countless heroes, kings, and other outstanding people have emerged."

Russell did not get straight to the point, but instead praised Chiron's name.

"It's just a name..."

Chiron smiled humbly and understood the truth.

"Do you want me to spread your name?"

"No, it's a step further."

Zeus will not allow the old gods to return.

The beliefs of people like Pollux and Medusa would definitely lead to Zeus issuing a conquest.

after all......

The current Zeus is unwilling to even allow the twelve mechas of Olympus to accept human faith.

Why would the local gods be allowed to share the profits?

In layman's terms, Zeus hopes that he is the sole god of mankind, and he is completely opposed to DD, that is, "liking any god regardless of which one".

Russell thought so and said softly.

"I guess this will become a battlefield for wars between different faiths?"

City-states that worship Zeus and the other Olympian gods will probably be asked to attack here.

"So, I'd like to ask Teacher Chiron to come forward and persuade them, and tell them the truth about Olympus and Zeus."

Russell said frankly that in this way, at least the city-states other than those that believed in Zeus might remain on hold.

Chiron suddenly realized: "I see. But, Sisyphus, even if these city-states unite and wage war, you will not be afraid. You will surely win, right?"

During his time in Corinth, he had already known the enormous power within this disciple's body, the power that was enough to destroy everything.

as well as......

Although not recognized by Russell, the name has been circulating——

The fourth generation God-King, Boros.

Even the sun god and the moon goddess gathered around him.

"Yes."

Russell lowered his head, his tone inexplicably heavy.

"Consider it an unnecessary request. Chiron-sensei already knows the situation. Victory has always been between Zeus and me. If a war breaks out, no matter which side it is, it will be a meaningless sacrifice, right?"

"They were completely unaware that the gods they believed in had been unified by Zeus, losing their ability to respond. Instead, they were asked to start a war and were ultimately killed without knowing why."

Russell rubbed his brows and said with distress.

"This is like a fight between gods, and mortals suffer. Living in Greece is miserable enough for mortals, there is no need to cause so many unnecessary sacrifices."

He was not afraid of killing, but he just didn't want to commit meaningless killings.

of course.

Even if Chiron, the most famous sage, came forward, he would not be able to dispel the impulse of those people.

Then, let him say something like "If you dare to attack me, I will make sure you return with a crushing defeat" and do something cruel.

Russell had already realized this.

"So this is ah......"

Chiron was a little confused. He originally thought that Russell wanted to use his fame to gather more power and strength.

After all, the enemy is Zeus, who is called the Great Father God and wants to become the only God.

You can never be too careful.

But he didn't expect it to be like this.

In a trance, Chiron looked at Russell's face illuminated by the sunlight and felt an inexplicable divinity bursting out.

It is not the divinity of blood, but the divinity that is opposite to human nature.

If the Greek gods were men in the shell of gods, then Sisyphus was like a god in a human body.

And if there really is such a thing as a single God, it would definitely be someone like Sisyphus.

This thought arose in Chiron's mind.

79. The so-called savior is exactly like this (2/18)

"Prometheus was also rescued by Hercules and I."

Chiron looked at Russell's serious expression and made the most serious promise of his life.

"Although I am ashamed, I, known as a sage, and the fire thief will help you accomplish this."

As a teacher, am I so powerless?

He was completely unable to help his own disciple, and watched as his favorite disciple, who had clearly done nothing wrong, chose to go against the Great Father God.

He knew the plan of the Great Father God, but he could only helplessly watch as the human beings he loved were about to fall into such a heavy future.

This made Chiron feel sad and angry at the same time.

But he didn't show it, instead he put a trusting smile on his face and encouraged.

"Sisyphus, no matter what, go for it. I believe you will be victorious. If you become the King of Gods, it will be even better than it is now."

"..."

Russell was silent for a moment, then shook his head and laughed.

"I have no desire to become the King of the Gods. Furthermore, perhaps, among the Kings of the Gods, no one loves humanity more than Zeus. Although this fellow only wants humanity to become obedient reeds, he will not allow disasters, pain, or torture to befall humanity..."
