There is such a prince in many stories. His father was a glorious and upright king. But when he was born or when he was young, his father was overthrown by conspirators, and his royal power was usurped. Then he went through many things.
After many hardships, the grown-up prince finally defeated the conspirators and regained the throne.
Such stories have been circulated for a long time, but for Jason, he preferred not to appear in such stories.
"Jason, my dear nephew..."
In front of Jason, the old, bloated guy with a disgusting smile, who was nominally his uncle, was saying deliberately kind words, but Jason looked at his face and even wanted to immediately pull out the sword from his waist and kill him.
He killed.
This guy who had seized his brother's throne wanted to deceive him at this moment. But he couldn't do this. Looking at the many guards beside the king, the young and handsome Jason tried to calm down his mood.
He showed a seemingly cheerful and innocent smile: "Yes, my uncle, I miss you very much... Now that I have grown up, according to the ancient tradition, I will inherit the property that you have temporarily taken care of and belongs to my father Aesong.
Kingdom of Thessaly."
In his seemingly cheerful words, Jason secretly pointed out a fact.
Although his uncle is now the de facto king, in name only, he claims that he is only in charge of the throne in place of his mediocre brother. If his brother's son grows up, he will give up the throne to him.
But in fact, when Jason's father Aeson was overthrown, Jason disappeared and few people knew that he was rescued from the killers by the famous centaur Chiron.
The famous centaur Chiron had an eternal life and taught many heroes. He taught Jason many skills, such as riding, archery, literature and poetry. These skills made Jason a young and strong young man.
When he grew up, Jason tried to ask his uncle for the throne.
The sudden arrival of the prince caught the king off guard, but the old king comforted his nephew while thinking about countermeasures. Finally, he came up with a way...
In the tears of the old king, he claimed that he was very willing to return the throne to Jason, but Jason was still too young, and he was afraid that Jason would not be able to convince the public.
So, he showed his fangs.
"I often dream about the ghost of Phrixus. He misses his hometown and hopes that I can give him peace. If you can bring his bones and the legendary golden fleece, this will not only prove your ability,
I can rest assured and hand over the throne to you."
Golden Fleece?
The appearance of this term made Jason's brows jump wildly.
There are many legends about this treasure, but among the many legends, the most important point is that it is the wool of the golden sheep that once raised the god Zeus.
The sheep was given to the god Hermes, who in turn gave it to Phrixus and his sister Helle, the mortal children of Nephele, the goddess of clouds.
The two children of the goddess and the king flew into the distance on golden sheep. When they flew to the sea, their sister Helle took a look at the sea below, became dizzy, and fell to death on the spot. The only remaining Phrixus
Then he rode the golden sheep and flew to the distance of the sea.
There is a legend that the child of this goddess later gave birth to offspring in a distant country and became the local king. The golden sheep was slaughtered and sacrificed to the gods, and the wool of the golden sheep became a treasure passed down by that family from generation to generation.
Jason knew that this was obviously his uncle's excuse, and he probably wished he could die far away in the sea.
However, Phrixus and his uncle Pelias did know each other. Pelias and his father Aeson were both sons of the god Poseidon. It is said that the two had a friendship when they were young.
The name of a long-dead person is also quite convincing.
Jason glanced at the expressions of the people around him and knew that he had no fame now and could not gain support even if he was ambitious. So he reluctantly suppressed his heart and said with a smile.
"My uncle, I will do it."
In his heart, Jason was thinking crazily, what should he do next?
Soon, he had an idea in his mind.
…
A few days later, a sensational news spread throughout Greece.
The vengeful prince Jason will go to the sea to find the legendary golden fleece.
Suddenly, the entire Greek region was discussing this matter.
The Golden Fleece is an extremely valuable treasure, which is also an honor, but what is even more daunting is its location.
Colchis is a legendary country. Legend has it that it is a mysterious forbidden land at the end of the sea. Many people believe that there are mysterious mages and ferocious dragons in that country.
and precious treasures.
However, the heavy sea blocked the heroes' footsteps.
The sirens in the sea confuse the minds of mortals, the strange birds in the sea feed on humans, the strange fish and beasts in the sea, and the capricious storms and tides... these are all one of them.
So dangerous.
Someone advised Jason not to go, it was too dangerous.
But the young man was not afraid, and instead issued a summons, calling on all the heroes in Greece to venture to Colchis at the end of the sea.
Under Jason's call, some heroes were attracted by the precious golden fleece, some were attracted by the glorious glory, and some were simply attracted by the treasure.
In this way, heroes from all over Greece began to gather towards Jason's position.
At the foot of Mount Pelion, a magnificent ship is under construction.
In order to appease Jason's heart, the old king summoned the best shipbuilders in Greece. Their craftsmanship was as powerful and perfect as if they were taught by the gods themselves.
A huge ship gradually took shape.
Half a year passed like this, and the big ship was finally built. Many heroes gathered here. In the bustle and bustle, the heroes who relied on their own strength began to compete with each other for the qualifications to board the ship.
Such excitement even attracted the goddesses of heaven and the goddess of the underworld.
"Look, Mona, these mortals are young and vigorous, but they have no idea of the danger they are about to face."
Stretching out her green onion-like hands, the beautiful goddess wearing armor said to the girl beside her.
The girl watched quietly. She was invited by the goddess Athena to travel around the world, and during her travels, she met these young heroes from all over the world.
The two invisible goddesses could not be seen by anyone. The goddesses walked among the demigod heroes and even commented on their fates.
"Look at this old man Polyphemus, he is the hero of the Lapith heroes. When the Lapith heroes fought with the centaurs, he bravely helped those heroes and drove away the centaurs.
We. Now he is old, but the pride in his heart is still the same."
Athena pointed at a strutting middle-aged man, who attracted quite a lot of attention among the many young people.
At his age, soldiers usually gradually withdraw from the fighting ranks, but this ambitious old hero never accepts his old age and still tries to prove his former glory to the world.
Mona shook her head.
"The courage of a young man is like a sword, and the wisdom of an elder is like a shield, but a sword is more useful than a shield when taking risks. His shield can protect his home, but it is difficult to travel far."
Obviously, Mona, who can understand destiny, doesn't think much of this old hero.
Hearing this, Athena pointed again.
"What about this energetic young man? His name is Kronos. He was born in a prosperous place and came bravely for adventure. His eyes are bright and his arms are strong. He looks extraordinary."
"A brave and fearless warrior, but the stage of his life is not here. He blocked the enemy's advance and fearlessly cut off the retreat for his comrades. His life will be sung by poets."
Mona looked at the young and inexperienced young man, who was chatting and laughing with his friends, and pictures of the future appeared in her eyes.
At some point in the future, this brave and fearless young man became the leader of the tribe. During a war against the centaurs, he cut off the rear for other tribal leaders, and was besieged by the centaurs.
The centaurs charged again and again, but could not repel him or kill him. In the end, the strong and unyielding warrior was knocked to the ground by the thick tree trunks thrown by the centaurs.
At this moment, the young man was still unaware of his future and was laughing.
Athena thought thoughtfully. She is not a god who is proficient in prophecy. She is better at grasping the present than predicting the future.
"The future of the heroes has not been determined yet, so how can we say there will be no changes?"
Said this goddess who likes to be with heroes and guide them forward.
Mona shook her head calmly, noncommittal.
"Let's take a look at these two young men. The calm and wise one is Mopsus. He was born with extraordinary intelligence. Apollo, the god of light, taught him how to predict predictions based on birds. The active one is Cantos.
He is from Opoa Island and is excited to join the adventure."
"Even those who know prophecies cannot predict their own loss, and even their passion cannot illuminate the fog. Poor people, they will be lost at the end of the world and will never be able to return home."
Mona sighed.
These two young people from different places will accidentally meet each other in this adventure, and finally get lost at the end of the world together and be buried there.
Athena sighed deeply as Mona revealed the future of these young people at a glance. So, she deliberately pointed her finger at the demigods who had the blood of the gods.
"Look, they are the two sons born to Queen Leda of Sparta, the mighty Polydeuces and the horse-driving Castor. They are the mortal children of Zeus."
Athena pointed to a pair of young and handsome brothers, the older brother was resolute and the younger brother was handsome.
Once, Zeus saw the Queen of Sparta on the ground who was very beautiful, so he turned into a swan and gave birth to the brothers with the queen.
Mona looked at it carefully and said.
"They are indeed powerful, but their fates are still intertwined until they turn into stars in the sky."
Mona's words seemed to be deliberately vague, so that Athena could not fully understand them.
In Mona's eyes, the brothers were glowing with starlight, and one day they would turn into constellations in the sky, the constellation of Gemini.
But the future cannot be revealed at will, so Mona can only choose to be vague.
Athena was not discouraged and pointed at a centaur again.
"This Centaur (centaur) is called Eurytion. He is strong and fast. He must be able to stand out here, right?"
It was a centaur who was drinking heavily and laughing.
Mona shook her head.
"He has the strength of a hero, but it is a pity that he loses respect because of drunkenness and indulgence."
One day in the future, this strong but rude centaur went crazy because he drank too much at the wedding banquet, grabbed the bride and tried to snatch her away. As a result, he was beaten to death by another angry hero Theseus.
Athena pointed to another pair of young men.
Mona sighed louder and louder. The twins born to Zeus would die in the future precisely because of their enmity with the brothers named Linkes and Idas.
Two pairs of brothers once fought side by side, but in the end they killed each other because of their enemies. Seeing Mona in the future, she couldn't help but shake her head.
And the remaining heroes, such as the descendants of Poseidon, the god of the sea, the descendants of Hephaestus, the god of fire, the descendants of the ancient kings and goddesses of Athens...these rare heroes in the world are all gathered here at this moment, and Athena asked Mona to come.
There are a few reviews, but Mona's reviews are generally unfavorable.
Until the end, even the goddess Athena, who was called the hero's friend, couldn't help but be confused.
"Is the road of a hero so difficult? Even among all the heroes, gods and humans, no one can complete it?"
Mona shook her head.
The road of a hero is indeed very difficult. Countless people have stepped into it and it is difficult for them to reach the end. But those who can reach the end must have incredible power. Just as the one who is about to come is most likely to reach the end of this road
people.
"Look, Athena, the one most likely to succeed in achieving great things, is coming."
Mona whispered, and under the gaze of the two goddesses, a great hero walked slowly from a distance.
He has an upright appearance and is more mature than he was many years ago. He still has the lion skin wrapped around his back, and he is carrying a big wild boar that he just killed on his shoulders. His eyes are like a torch, and he is staring at the chaotic port.
