Ares, God of War

"Since you all want to participate, now, please go to the Holy Forest of War in our Kingdom of Kochis, Medea, and you will lead them the way."

What does this mean, King Aeetes is actually planning to pay in advance, isn't he afraid that we will run away after we get the Golden Fleece?

After hearing the order from Aeetes, the crew of the Argonaut, including Medea, had deep doubts in their hearts, but Medea still followed her father's order and led a group of Argonauts. The heroes went to the sacred forest where Ares, the god of war, was enshrined.

In this sacred forest, there is still a dragon that breathes fire without sleep, which is the one that the Argonauts saw when they first landed on Cochise Island, but this time there is Medea was not afraid of Aeetes' order. If the dragon really attacked them, her magic and the power of Hercules would be enough to deal with it.

But when a group of people came to the outside of the Ares Sacred Forest, they didn't see the huge dragon coming out to stop them.

"Strange, did you get called away by your father?"

Looking at the peaceful forest, Medea muttered with some doubts.

She led the heroes further into the woods. After walking for a while, a terrible roar erupted from the depths of the forest.

Accompanied by this roar, bursts of violent wind pressure set off by sound waves also rushed towards the face, sweeping away the fallen leaves in the forest and shaking the branches constantly. However, it is strange that a group of heroes heard the sound of the wind in this roar. Some bitter taste came.

"It's the dragon that guards here!" Medea yelled, "Someone is attacking it!"

Jason's complexion changed, and he shouted: "Is there someone who wants to be the first to snatch the Golden Fleece before us?"

As soon as he yelled, a group of heroes suddenly became anxious, and hurried towards the Temple of Ares in the forest, but after they had advanced for a while, they were frightened by the sight Shocked, he stopped in his tracks.

In the open space in front of the Temple of Ares, a tall and handsome man was standing there. He was the God of War Ares among the Twelve Gods that all the heroes had seen, and he was also the God of War in this temple. The enshrined master.

But at this time, he was holding a long tail in his hand, and this tail was connected to a huge dragon, which was the dragon guarding the Sacred Forest of Cochise Kingdom.

The God of War grabbed the long tail of the Cochise dragon, just like a human being grabs a toy, and threw the dragon casually on the ground, sweeping away countless trees in the forest. The giant dragon has no resistance at all in the hands of the God of War, and the flames it spouts are not even qualified to warm Ares.

Ares smashed it back and forth until the painful roar in the dragon's mouth turned into a whine of weakness, and he threw the dragon into the open space in the forest.

With a loud bang, the God of War did not hesitate to use the fierce dragon to crush his own temple, and the group of heroes were stunned for a while.

"Ok?"

At this time, Ares seemed to have noticed the aura of these heroes. He looked towards the crowd, then raised his palm, showed a hearty smile, and shouted to the crowd:

"Hey, it seems that everyone is here, no one is left behind, not bad, not bad, everyone is a top hero."

"teacher."

Hercules was the first to speak, and he asked:

"What are you doing?"

"Beat the dragon." Ares angrily kicked the Cochise dragon, which had already half-stepped into the underworld. When he turned his head, he switched to a hearty smile, and he explained:

"I don't know why this damn dragon is squatting next to my temple. I don't like it."

"King Cochise says it was sent by you," cried a hero from the crowd.

"Hmph, I don't like keeping small animals." Ares snorted, and Medea and Hercules vaguely guessed who the real owner of this fierce dragon was right away.

"I was planning to kill it directly, but now I have something to do, and this dragon can barely be regarded as a relatively resistant cannon fodder, so let's save its life first."

Ares said, and patted the nostrils of the Cochise dragon:

"Hey, you've been drafted into the army. If you don't agree, I'll kill you. Do you understand?"

The Sleepless Dragon was beaten so that the three-pronged snake's head stuck out. Hearing Ares' threatening words, it could only express its attitude with pleading and surrender in its eyes.

Seeing this scene, Medea thought of something and asked:

"Brother, did you change father's will and let us go to the Pallene Peninsula?"

"That's right." Ares nodded, and replied: "I asked Aeetes to temporarily change the test on Jason. In fact, he originally wanted to find an excuse to kill this guy directly. .”

Ares' words made Jason shiver uncontrollably, and leaned slightly in the direction of Hercules.

"Don't be nervous, you are Hera's shelter, and I have no interest in your life." Ares smiled and said to Jason: "On the contrary, if you do something for me, after it is done, don't worry about it." Speaking of the golden fleece, if you want another sheep with a golden fleece, I can give it to you, how about it, do you want to do it?"

ps: I just came home, and I went to Chengdu this week to gather my classmates and disrupted my work and rest, and barely squeezed out at five o'clock.

Chapter 245. Deviant Ideas

After hearing what happened on the Pallene Peninsula from Ares, Jason and the heroes finally chose to participate in the trial proposed by the God of War.

Although it is indeed very dangerous to deal with a group of snake-footed giants who can wrestle with the gods, once they succeed, the great achievements left behind are really insurmountable.

The Greeks in the heroic era pursued such a great cause, and many heroes would not hesitate to smash their bodies to pieces in order to complete their great cause.

As for the great feat of helping the gods defeat their enemies, so far, it seems that only the founding king of Thebes, Cadmus, has ever done it.

It is rumored in the Greek world that Cadmus left Thebes after passing the throne to the person appointed by the goddess in his later years. He traveled around the world and finally turned into a dragon in Illyria and gained eternal life. Some people also say that after his death, Cadmus ascended to the Kingdom of God and entered the ranks of the gods. Some people have seen his spirit body roaming the earth. All kinds of narratives deify Cadmus as a hero. more excessive.

It can be said that it was Cadmus, the hero, that opened the heroic age of the Greek world, and in this era, even Hercules, the current achievements have not surpassed Cadmus.

Therefore, after Jason agreed to Ares, none of the other heroes on the Argo retreated, and they all expressed that they would follow Jason to complete this great cause.

As a result, Ares immediately summoned the Argonaut hidden by the Argonauts on the coast of the Kingdom of Cochis with divine power, and made it grow a pair of wings to fly among the clouds. Then, Ares Let the heroes of the Argonauts board the ship with him, and prepare to fly towards the Pallene Peninsula.

Medea also wanted to board the boat, but was rejected by Ares. The God of War stopped his junior sister and said to her with a serious face:

"Stay at home obediently, you don't need to get involved in this matter."

"Well, why, I'm always more useful than Jason, right?" The little witch looked at her senior brother with some disbelief, and shouted: "There are many people on board who can't beat me. If you don't believe me, ask them."

"We didn't go this time to fight the snake-footed giants on the Pallene Peninsula. Besides, you can't fight except Hercules."
