Chapter 50: Can’t we just get married? (Subscribe!)
[Happy times are always short, and after a night of revelry, the prosperity is over. ]
[The heroes have also waited for the time to part. ]
[Jason held your hand and was unwilling to let you go. ]
[“Zoe, my best brother, if possible, I really don’t want to be separated from you.” ]
[“But I also know that you have your own way to go, and I can’t force you to stay……………..But I still want to tell you that if one day you are tired and want to find a place to rest, you can come to me.” ]
[“My kingdom will always be open to you. As long as you come, my glory, my wealth, and everything I have are willing to share with you!” ]
[These words are so affectionate that even you are slightly moved. ]
[After spending time together on the Argonaut voyage, you became good friends with Jason, Hercules, and Orpheus. ]
[They really don’t want to part with you. 】
【But you also know that after sending you a thousand miles, we must say goodbye. 】
【Everyone has his own life and his own path to walk. When we walk together, we may occasionally form a companion, but when we part, we should also be open-minded. 】
【If we are destined to meet, we will meet again in the future. 】
【”I am leaving, and you must take care of yourselves. I hope that next year, we can still get together and drink together!” 】
【”Take care, everyone! May your life be as glorious as the Argo!” 】
【The boy waved goodbye, and the legendary journey came to an end. 】
【The heroes went their separate ways and took different paths. 】
【But……………..】
【”Why are you following me?” 】
【The cat-eared girl frowned her beautiful willow eyebrows, and the cat ears on both sides of her head flicked slightly, looking very touchable. 】
[“Didn’t Her Majesty Artemis tell you?”]
[“What?”]
[“She asked me to go to the Kingdom of Calydon to hunt the wild boar she left behind.”
“One six zero”]
[“Let you go?”]
[“Yes, to be precise, let us go together!”]
[Hearing this, Atalanta glanced at Anna who was following you, Medea who had sneaked in shamelessly, and Duoge who was staring at her eagerly. 】
[Her cold expression relaxed a little, but her mouth was still very hard, rejecting people at a thousand miles away: “No need, just a wild boar, I can do it alone!”]
[“Oh, then you can talk to Her Majesty Artemis yourself, as long as she agrees, I won’t go.”]
[“…………….”]
[Who doesn’t know that Atalanta is Artemis’s loyal little fan? 】
[How could a devout believer refute the oracle issued by the gods? 】
[You know, when he was abandoned, it was Artemis who passed by.Seeing that Atalanta was really pitiful, he found a lactating female bear and raised Atalanta to adulthood. 】
【For this cat-eared lady, Artemis is not just a god of faith, but in a sense, one of her mothers. 】
【Why one of them? 】
【There is also a female bear and Atalanta’s biological mother! 】
【”It’s up to you, as long as you can keep up!” 】
【As the best hunter of this era, Atalanta’s running speed is unparalleled in the world. Even in the dense jungle, she can still come and go freely. 】
【She is like a nimble tiger, skillfully shuttling through obstacles, and in a blink of an eye, she disappeared. 】
[“Do you want to follow?”]
[Medea has a little bit of a cleanliness freak. She doesn’t want to go into the forest, fearing that her clothes will get dirty. ]
[“No, let’s go from above!”]
[You patted Togo gently, and the white wolf understood. It howled to the sky, harnessed the strong wind, and ran towards the direction of the Kingdom of Calydon. ]
[When Atalanta thought she had gotten rid of you and came to the Kingdom of Calydon alone, she found that the three of you and the wolf had been waiting at the city gate for a long time. ]
[Looking at the surprise in the cat-eared girl’s eyes, you smiled and explained: “We flew here.”]
[Flew here? ]
[No wonder it’s faster than me…]
[Atalanta breathed a sigh of relief after getting the answer. 】
【Running speed is her strength that she is proud of. If she is defeated by others in this aspect, she will feel uncomfortable. 】
Whether Atalanta accepts it or not, Lin Yi has already arrived in the Kingdom of Calydon to participate in this hunting activity.
The moment Oeneus, the king of Calydon, saw him, he burst into tears and put himself in the position of the victim in an attempt to win Lin Yi’s sympathy.
However, this trick did not work on Lin Yi at all.
He knew the truth.
“During the harvest season, you forgot about Her Majesty Artemis, the goddess of hunting. Your Majesty, whose fault is this?”
Lin Yi stared at Oeneus’ tearful eyes, made him lower his head, and then said indifferently: “In my opinion, Her Majesty Artemis has been tolerant enough. Your kingdom prospers because of the goddess’ blessing. She has given you countless beasts in the forest. And how do you repay the goddess?”
“This…………I………….”
Oeneus was choked by Lin Yi and couldn’t speak for a long time. He finally understood that this “flawless person” came to defend Artemis!
But he didn’t dare to offend Lin Yi, so he had to admit his mistake and beg Lin Yi to help him defeat the rebellious wild boar.
Lin Yi shook his head and didn’tHe agreed, because the protagonist this time was not him.
But Atalanta.
It was most reasonable for the followers of Artemis to kill the wild boar that the goddess had dropped.
This meant that the goddess had forgiven the disrespect of the Calydonian Kingdom, otherwise, the king would not be able to sleep in the future.
In fact, it was true.
After hearing that Atalanta was a follower of Artemis, Oeneus’ enthusiasm for her increased significantly.
Giving gold and fine wine, he was so humble that he didn’t look like a king, but more like a dog pursuing the goddess.
In addition, he also vigorously spread the fact that the goddess had sent followers to attack the Calydonian boar.
He stabilized the public opinion within the kingdom and also stabilized his throne.
In response, Atalanta just pretended not to see it.
After attacking the Calydonian boar, he left alone.
But what she didn’t know was that because Oeneus needed to prove that Artemis had forgiven his mistakes, he exaggerated Atalanta’s achievements.
In just a few days, every kingdom in this land heard the story and reputation of this female hunter.
Including Atalanta’s biological father.
——Iasos, the king of the Kingdom of Arcadia.
This ruthless king, because his wife Clymene gave birth to a daughter instead of a son.
He cruelly threw Atalanta, who was still a baby, into the mountains. If it hadn’t been discovered by Artemis’ sacred beast, the she-bear,
I’m afraid that the young Atalanta would have become meat in the mouths of wild beasts.
Because of this experience, Atalanta has an extremely strong sympathy for children and is extremely disgusted with men.
She had made a vow to Artemis to believe in Artemis, one of the three virgin goddesses, for the rest of her life and to keep her purity.
But Iasus obviously didn’t care about Atalanta’s choice.
After learning that his abandoned daughter had achieved such amazing success and had become a very good hunter.
He immediately sent someone to find Atalanta.
Although Atalanta had no good feelings for her father, as a hero, she was also a believer of Artemis.
She couldn’t refuse her biological father’s request.
She was worried that this would bring shame to the god she believed in.
She reluctantly agreed to Iasus’s request and followed the people who were looking for her back to her hometown, the Kingdom of Arcadia.
Iasus wanted Atalanta to get married and give birth to a legitimate heir to his kingdom.
So, after symbolically asking for Atalanta’s opinion, they decided to use a race to decide Atalanta’s future husband!
Only those who beat Atalanta could marry this beautiful female hunter.
And the loser would be killed on the spot!
Atalanta wanted to use this method to cut off those who didn’t knowThe thoughts of people with high aspirations.
However, many people still signed up enthusiastically, hoping to gain both fame and fortune and win the beauty.
The result is needless to say, they all died in the hands of Atalanta, paying the price for their greed.
Until a young man named Melanion appeared.
At the same time, Lin Yi also arrived in Arcadia.
This time, he came alone.
[Melanion fell in love with this beautiful, lonely, and wild female hunter at first sight when he saw Atalanta. ]
[However, he also knew that he could not outrun Atalanta at all, and fell into distress for this. ]
[In this era, Atalanta is the fastest hero on the earth! Perhaps only Hercules, a real monster, can beat her. 】
【And Hercules obviously will not participate in this race, which means Atalanta is invincible. 】
【Of course, the prerequisite for this invincibility is……………….】
【The gods will not intervene! 】 (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
【Melanion obviously also understood this truth, so he went to seek help from Aphrodite, the goddess of love. 】
【”Great Aphrodite, I fell in love with a girl, but she didn’t have me in her eyes. What should I do? Your loyal believer prays here, hoping that you can give me the right guidance!”】
【Kneeling under the statue of the goddess in the temple, Melanion prayed with a painful heart, longing for a solution to his distress. 】
【Aphrodite, the goddess of love, heard his plea and dropped three golden apples. 】
【”Take these three golden apples, and when you are surpassed by Atalanta, throw one away…”】
【No one can resist the temptation of golden apples. As long as you see them, you will definitely pick them up. 】
【When Atalanta picks up the golden apples, Melanion will take the opportunity to surpass her. 】
【This method is not very glorious, but it is the only way to defeat Atalanta. 】
【”Thank you, great Aphrodite!”】
【Picking up the three golden apples on the ground, Melanion’s eyes flickered. 】[]
【As a hero, he also knew that what he was about to do was very despicable and not an upright means. 】
【But, what else can he do? 】
【In order to defeat Atalanta and marry the woman he loved, he could only do this! 】
【”Atalanta……”】
【On one side is the beloved woman, on the other side is the identity of a hero. 】
【Kneeling under the statue of the goddess, Melanion wavered from side to side. 】
【In the end, he chose to put the three golden apples in his arms. 】
【And at this moment, you have also come to ArcadiaKingdom, after giving his name, he easily met Atalanta who was bored in the deep palace. 】
【Iasos welcomes your arrival. 】
【In fact, in his opinion, you are one of the best candidates for a husband. 】
【Besides you, only Hercules is left. 】
【But Hercules didn’t come, and Iasos couldn’t do anything. 】
【After all, you can’t beg him to come, right? 】
【As a king, Iasos has to have some face. 】
【What’s more, Hercules has been married for a long time, and he loves his wife very much, so he naturally won’t have any thoughts about Atalanta. 】
【He is not a stallion like Zeus and Poseidon. 】
【When he sees a beautiful woman, regardless of whether it is a man or a woman, he wants to take her for himself immediately. 】
[Therefore, in Iasus’s expectation, you are the best candidate for a husband! 】
[I wish you and Atalanta could have a child soon. 】
[Of course, she won’t put on airs with you, and she agreed to your request to see Atalanta on the spot. 】
[“Zoe?” 】
[Seeing you coming, Atalanta’s expressionless face rarely showed a trace of joy. 】
[She doesn’t have many friends she recognizes, and you are one of them. 】
[In addition, there are too many bad things that have happened during this period, and seeing the arrival of friends is also a kind of comfort. 】
【Atalanta invites you to sit down, and then asks in a somewhat strange way: “Why are you the only one here? Where are Anna, Togo, and the witch who sticks to you all day? Aren’t they here?”】
“Why are they here?”
Looking at Atalanta, who was rarely wearing a skirt, Lin Yi teased: “I’m here to compete with you, what are they here for? Are they here to cheer for me?”
“Don’t be ridiculous, Zoe.”
Knowing that Lin Yi had no idea about her, Atalanta said helplessly: “If you also want to participate in the competition, be prepared to be killed by me! I won’t show mercy to you just because we are friends!”
“You are too heartless, aren’t you? It’s rare that I am ready to help you.”
“Help me? 2.4 Help me?”
Sure enough, hearing this, Atalanta became interested.
On the Argo, Jason often boasted about Lin Yi’s wisdom.
Atalanta had also heard about it.
She was looking forward to Lin Yi coming up with a good way to get out of this situation as soon as possible and solve the current troubles.
She had vowed to be a virgin for life and had no idea about men and marriage.
It was impossible for her to listen to Iasus and marry anyone and have children.
“It’s very simple, can’t we just get married?”
Lin Yi pointed at himself and smiled, “Then I will ask Her Majesty Artemis for an oracle to make you remain a virgin and dissolve our marriage. In this way, all the problems will be solved.All solved!”
It seems………………
Is it OK?
Atalanta thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with Lin Yi’s plan.
The only difficulty was how to get the oracle from Artemis.
And………………
“Just you, can you outrun me?”
Atalanta chuckled, but it was not that she looked down on Lin Yi.
That was the fact.
If it was a head-on battle, she really couldn’t beat Lin Yi holding the flaming spear.
But when it comes to running………………
Atalanta said confidently that even ten Lin Yis tied together couldn’t beat her!
“Don’t worry about it, I have my own way. ”
Unable to help rolling his eyes at the female hunter in front of him, Lin Yi waved his hands, not wanting to continue this topic that hurt his self-esteem.
So, these heroes of the Age of Gods are all freaks!
How can a normal human run as fast as an F1 car!
It’s not me who is abnormal, it’s you!
