"Huh? How could I not outrun a turtle? Fiddler, you must be kidding me, right?"
Theseus asked confused.
The mysterious harp player smiled and plucked the harp in his hand, making a clear clanging sound. Then, he spoke again.
"Theseus, you might as well imagine. If there is such a turtle, it can run one-fifth of a cubit per second (one cubit is 45 centimeters), and it is two hundred cubits (about 90 meters) in front of you at this moment, then
How long will it take you to catch up with it?"
Theseus thought for a moment and answered confidently.
"I only need five seconds to catch up to that turtle."
The violinist replied again.
"Then Theseus, when you ran for five seconds, the slow and slow turtle also advanced one cubit. Therefore, after five seconds, you have not caught up with the turtle."
Theseus replied unconvinced.
"Then I can catch up with it if I chase it for another forty-tenth of a second."
"But Theseus, just when you chased the turtle for one-fortieth of a second, the turtle advanced another two-hundredth of a cubit, and now you still haven't caught up with the turtle."
Theseus was still unconvinced and asked again.
"Then what if I chase you again?"
"Theseus, you can still catch up, but the tortoise is also running. Every time you chase a little bit, the tortoise also runs a little bit. So, you will never catch up with this turtle."
The violinist looked at Theseus, spread his hands, and showed a mysterious smile.
Theseus was dumbfounded.
He comes from Athens, which is known as a place with many famous philosophers. Faced with this question that seemed outrageous at first glance, he was stunned for a moment, but he did not answer it vaguely, but tried to be more serious.
"Turtle... I... wait, why can't I catch up?"
He held his head and counted silently, muttering how many seconds he had run and how much the turtle had advanced. Finally, he kept mumbling various numbers.
Heracles on the side did not have such a good temper, he shouted to the violinist.
"Hey! Aren't you ashamed of your clever tongue to coax a young man?"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The violinist couldn't help laughing, and then he said.
"It's not that I deceived him, it's just that he got into the maze and couldn't get out. The young hero who was able to escape the Cretan maze couldn't escape the maze he set for himself."
As he spoke, he put away the smile on his face and bowed seriously.
"Orpheus of Thrace was a harp player, but he knew that he would not lose to others in battle, so he could participate in the adventure of the Golden Fleece."
Seeing that the violinist was no longer frivolous, the hero's frown relaxed slightly and he responded.
"Hercules."
The harp player made a bad impression on the hero, so he spoke rudely.
However, the violinist obviously knew his reputation and said in surprise.
"Oh, is he the great hero of Thebes? It's really amazing. It's such an honor to meet you."
Facing the violinist's overtures, the hero nodded and considered him acquainted.
The businessman next to him asked, is this wild boar still for sale? How much is the price? The hero waved his hand unceremoniously and refused to sell it.
He had a good impression of Theseus, his little fanboy, so he decided to roast the wild boar and have a dinner together. He woke up Theseus, who was still obsessed with whether he could outrun the tortoise, and invited
He had dinner with several people.
The adventure of the Golden Fleece attracted many Greek heroes, so the qualification to board the ship became the object of competition. Many warriors competed for the spot. This was also a preview before the adventure.
This adventure requires only the best heroes to cope with the most dangerous difficulties. It is normal for ordinary people not to be able to board the ship.
Therefore, it is not possible to get on the ship immediately. There is still some time before the adventure of the Golden Fleece. During this time, it is better to get to know the heroes from all over Greece.
During the dinner, Hercules also introduced his companion, Hylas, a young and handsome boy to his little fan. In terms of age, this boy was younger than Theseus.
During the dinner, Orpheus showed off his amazing harp skills. When he plucked the strings, it was crisp and sweet, and he also sang for fun, making the party more cheerful.
Hercules raised his glass and asked.
"Orpheus, your harp looks very good."
The violinist replied with a smile.
"This is a gift given to me by the god Apollo one day when I was playing music in the wild."
Although Zeus ordered the gods not to visit the world at will, he was not strict. Occasionally, we would encounter traveling gods in the wild, which is not surprising in this world.
Several people continued to chat and talked about what they had seen and heard. When they got interested, the lyre player would compete with Theseus. It must be said that Orpheus's harp player costume was indeed very confusing. He was far away.
Not as fragile as it seems, on the contrary, surprisingly strong.
With his rich experience, Orpheus actually slightly outperformed some of Theseus. This made Theseus, who was determined to become Hercules' second best, very frustrated. It was Heracles who laughed and comforted him before his expression changed.
Better.
On Hercules's shoulder, the little snake was sleeping soundly.
The so-called Golden Fleece Adventure? It's nothing in its eyes. It would only be interested if it could snatch the thunder and lightning from Zeus's hand and have a thunder and lightning adventure.
But just as he was thinking this, his eyelids suddenly opened, and his erect pupils stared not far away.
Um?
It seems interesting.
…
The dock was bustling with people, and there were Greek warriors and heroes everywhere. Everyone wanted to compete for the golden fleece. But there happened to be an open space, and everyone subconsciously walked around it, eventually forming a circular open space with no one around.
Then in an instant, a bunch of people with different clothes appeared in the open space. Some were wearing casual clothes, some were wearing medieval plate armor, and some were simply wearing mage uniforms.
Among these people, there were several men and women wearing casual and modern clothes with blank eyes, and then they looked at those strange people and the surrounding environment with their mouths agape.
"Why am I here?"
"Hey, man, is this Y here?"
"Fuck, do you know that I..."
A few people either asked questions or remained silent, and some people came up and started to curse directly.
The man wearing medieval plate armor and a knight's uniform did not hesitate, pulled out the long sword from his waist, and slapped it with the sword spine like a ruler. Amidst the screams of a woman, the man dressed as a knight three times
After dividing five by two, he used his long sword to knock the scolding young man to the ground.
The thick and strong long sword instantly calms people down. This is definitely not a yinous prop.
But the strange thing is that no matter how much the men lectured and the women screamed, the people coming and going around them seemed not to notice, and calmly avoided this invisible circular space.
"Help! Killer!"
Someone took advantage of those people's unpreparedness and tried to escape into the crowd, but found that he ran directly into the transparent air wall.
It was only then that the few people wearing modern urban clothes realized that what they were facing was definitely not a kidnapper or a mentally ill person.
"Okay, Swordsman, just give the newcomer a lesson. Bai Wu, there are still 10 minutes of protection time, let's give an introduction to the newcomer."
A man with a silent expression spoke. He scolded the man dressed as a knight, and then said to the woman dressed as a mage next to him.
The woman nodded and began to introduce the new people.
"Everyone, as you can see, this is no longer the 21st century..."
Not to mention how the woman introduced the frightened newcomers, the swordsman withdrew the sword from his waist and said to the leading man.
"Lao Jiu, this is a punishment mission. Have you found out what kind of world this is?"
The man nodded.
"If the reward points I just spent are correct, this is the world of Greek mythology, but I don't know which version of Greek mythology it is. It would be fine if it was a movie or TV series, like "Wrath of the Gods" and "Troy"
This kind of power system shouldn't be too strong, but if it's some kind of magically modified Greek mythology... it would be difficult to handle."
The man pondered, and finally shook his head.
During the team's last mission, they deliberately used props from the Harry Potter world to create mission conflict bugs and forced a stay in Fuyuki City for sixty years during the Holy Grail War. The entire team fought two Holy Grail Wars and robbed the team twice.
cup.
I was still taking chances at first, but as soon as the mission was over, the Lord God gave me a punishment mission unceremoniously.
Before entering the punishment mission world, several of them didn't even know which world it was. They had just used reward points to find out that it was a world view from Greek mythology.
"Greed Wolf, hurry up and put on a disguise for the newcomers. When the protection time is over, who knows what will happen to us in these weird costumes."
Another shirtless man nodded, and a bunch of ancient Greek-style clothes were quickly generated in his hands. He is a warrior himself, but he learned a lot from Hassan in the last world, and he is very good at changing clothes quickly.
I gained a lot of insights.
The newcomers were a little awkward about changing their clothes in public for a while, but the man waved his hand and forced the newcomers to change their clothes in the sudden mist.
After a while, everyone changed their clothes. Although they were not used to what they were wearing, at first glance, they looked fine.
At this time, Ah Jiu's eyes moved. Everyone, including the newcomers, was stunned for a moment, as if they were looking at something.
"Mission goal...kill Hercules?"
The swordsman read word by word, his expression a little ugly.
