Of course, Atalanta didn't know all this, she thought Jason was so smart, and she knew the answer as soon as she heard it.
"So what we need to prevent is not this, but whether it will attack us in anger after we answer the riddle!...By the way, why are you here, Atalanta?"
This is not near the city of Thebes, but Atalanta is from Arcadia, the natural paradise.
So Jason really didn't expect to meet Atalanta here.
Atalanta was silent for a while, because there was no question that could not be answered, she said, "Actually, I was going to the Kingdom of Corinth and passed by here."
"Kingdom of Corinth...what are you doing there?"
Jason blinked his eyes, and at the same time he was still a little confused, because he somehow felt that the name of the kingdom seemed to be a bit impressive to him.
"Because the Kingdom of Corinth is going through an impossible test of pushing the boulder to the top of the mountain, and you can also leave your name on the mountain, so many heroes are rushing there now... ..”

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Stop by and ask questions, the monster of the Sphinx, whose name is the Sphinx.
Originally derived from Egyptian mythology, it is also common in West Asian mythology and Greek mythology.
In Greek mythology, the Sphinx became a female evil, representing the punishment of the gods.
And put the Sphinx here. It is none other than Jason's 'old acquaintance', Hera, the noble god of Olympus!
And this involves the story of a tragic hero Oedipus.
In Greek mythology, the son of King Laios of Thebes and Queen Jocasta, a hero named Oedipus killed his father and married him because of a curse. own mother.
But these have nothing to do with Jason.
Now he heard Atalanta's explanation of his intention to go, and after knowing where Atalanta was going, he couldn't help being stunned for a while.
"No wonder... no wonder Master Artemis wants to arrest me."
Jason understood that Atalanta encountered the trouble of the sphinx monster indirectly because of himself.
In addition to the matter of the bow of the sky, it's no wonder that Artemis didn't catch him.
Atalanta couldn't help tilting her head when she saw Jason's dazed look.
"You also know that rumor?...Could it be that the oracle given to you by the gods this time is to let you go there to accomplish an impossible feat?"
"Ah, it's not..." Jason shook his head.
Of course not, after all, this 'leaderboard' was created by Jason, so it is impossible for him to play that game.
"Actually, the trial, um... was the result of an oracle given to me by a great goddess."
Jason hesitated for a while, and glanced at the silver wooden stick that was still floating beside him, so he could only briefly explain the reason to Atalanta, who was slightly surprised.
"So...then the impossibility trial that has spread throughout the entire continent and attracted many heroes eager to try it, was actually made by you?"
After listening to Jason's words, Atalanta looked at Jason very strangely.
But she believed Jason's words.
To ask why...
"If I'm not mistaken, it is said in King Kalia that the great hero Hercules who descended from the sky is you, and in the kingdom of Libya, it is said that the great hero Hercules who killed the snake demon Lamia is also you Bar."
Atalanta looked at Jason in front of him, and said lightly: "Wearing white clothes, riding a pegasus, carrying the oracle of the gods, like a hero who fell from the stars to the mortal world..."
"No!" Before Atalanta finished speaking, Jason interrupted directly, and looked at Atalanta with incomparable sincerity, and said: "It's really not me, it's Hercules, I It's Jason...it has nothing to do with me!"
Hearing this, Atalanta, whose lips moved slightly, stared at Jason without speaking.
Those beautiful emerald eyes reveal a pair of 'do you think I'm stupid? ' gaze.
Who else is wearing white clothes these days, carrying the oracle of the gods, and riding a pegasus around everywhere besides you!
But Atalanta didn't bother to argue with Jason about this matter, after all, it was clearly true.
Thinking of this, Atalanta couldn't help but secretly smashed his tongue again.
This guy...how many secrets are there!
Because of the bad relationship with Jason, Atalanta vaguely realized that even with what he just said, it was probably the tip of the iceberg about Jason!
Just as Jason shot and killed the Calydonian wild boar with an arrow that day, no one knew about it except Atalanta, and no one knows about Persephone and Demeter back then.
Atalanta understood that there must be more behind Jason, more things she didn't know about.
And each item should be... very unusual!
If you change anyone casually, Jason's name and what he did should have already resounded throughout the continent... Oh, by the way, this guy doesn't want to be a hero, and he even dislikes heroes. with.
I don't want to be a hero, but I'm loved by the gods, and I've been doing heroic things... Sure enough, it's the same as the goddess Artemis said, for him... I don't care at all I understand.
Just when Atalanta was thinking about this, she kept calling her, and Jason, who saw that she didn't respond, couldn't help but waved in front of her and said, "Atalanta... Atalanta , Hey, Atalanta, are you okay!"
Atalanta came back to her senses, and looked at Jason who was looking at her suspiciously.
Looking at the blond hair and green eyes, Jason, who was gradually fading the immaturity on his face and becoming more heroic, couldn't help but tilt his head, and took two steps back, stroked the hair beside his ear and said, "It's okay... Tianqiong Zhibow is fine, I will forgive you this time.
But remember, there is no next time! "
After finishing speaking, Atalanta glared at Jason fiercely.
But Jason felt very puzzled, because he felt that Atalanta was very similar to a wild cat that panicked but still bared its teeth and claws.
It doesn't feel as bad as it used to be.
You must know that when they met before, Atalanta looked at Jason with the same gaze as a lioness who was about to hunt its prey...
"Don't worry, because I already have the bow to shoot the arrows of the goddess Artemis, but this matter is really wrong, I should give you an apology, so..."
Immediately after Jason spoke, he took out the remaining half of the golden apple from the silver bag.
Atalanta looked at the golden apple that Jason took out, and pointed at it in a daze, "This is...?"
"This is a golden apple, I got it from the goddess Athena... I was going to give you the whole thing as an apology, but my senior brother needed it as a material halfway, so I used part of it, I hope you don't mind. "
Jason was a little embarrassed and handed the golden apple to Atalanta.
Atalanta looked at Jason for a while, thought about it, and finally took the half of the golden apple.
Seeing that Atalanta took over, Jason breathed a sigh of relief.
Because this means that Atalanta will not continue to pursue Jason for taking the bow of the sky, Jason can be completely relieved.
Although Jason didn't want to deal with Atalanta very much at the beginning, but because of Artemis, Jason naturally didn't want to have a bad relationship with Atalanta.
"Hee hee, little Atalanta, don't underestimate this half of the apple. It was a gift given by Gaia, the mother of the earth, to Zeus and Hera when they were married. It is a very rare item.
Little Jason knows that you like apples, so he sincerely apologizes to you! "

PS: I want to go out for a meal with my sister, and come back at night to try to make up a [-]-word chapter.
Chapter 4 Ding!Congratulations to Atalanta for joining the team ([-]k)
Hearing the sudden sound next to her ears, Atalanta, who was slightly stunned, immediately reacted.
The other party is the moon god Artemis!
And just after Artemis finished speaking, the silver branch that had been floating beside Jason finally fell to the ground and turned into ordinary dead wood.
Obviously Artemis was very satisfied with Jason's behavior, so he left with peace of mind.
"...Let's go." Then Atalanta, who was silent for a while and didn't know what she was thinking, put away half of the golden apples.
"Since you already know the answer, there is no need for us to wait until dawn. As for assuming that if it dares to attack us..."
Atalanta didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but seeing her holding the Sky Bow tightly as if preparing to hunt, Jason naturally guessed the answer.
Although Jason felt that one thing more is worse than one thing less, it is naturally best if there is no conflict, so he brought Atalanta to discuss it.
But at this moment, seeing that Atalanta had made up his mind, Jason who opened his mouth thought for a while, but finally didn't say anything.
Then he followed Atalanta to the Sphinx of the Sphinx.
Sphinx looked at Jason and Atalanta who came back after leaving for a while, and asked after a moment: "Are you... Could it be that you just gave up because you couldn't think of an answer?" Yet?
Don't worry, I said I will give you one night, and I will give you one night..."
"No, on the contrary, Lord Sphinx, we already know the answer."
Now that the decision had been made, Jason, who never left the water, said to the Sphinx: "What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night?
The answer to this riddle...is people! "
"Human?" Hearing Jason's answer, Atalanta looked at Jason in surprise before the Sphinx responded.
Obviously such an answer...is not within the scope of her consideration at all!
Just now Atalanta thought it was some monster she didn't know, but Jason just knew about it.
"That's right, people."
Jason nodded to Atalanta, then looked at the Sphinx and said: "Because the morning, noon and late in the mouth of the Sphinx actually correspond to human childhood, middle age, and old age.
People walk on four legs when they are young, walk on two legs in middle age, and walk on three legs with a cane in their old age...My answer is not wrong, Mr. Sphinx. "
"...I really didn't expect that you actually guessed the answer." Sphinx, after watching Jason's brief silence, admitted Jason's correct answer .
Then he got up and got out of the way.
"Now, you can go."
......So simple?
Atalanta turned her head and looked at Jason suspiciously.
Jason smiled at Atalanta, turned around and held Pegasus, nodded politely to Sphinx, and said: "In that case, we will leave Lord Sphinx."
After speaking, Jason walked past the Sphinx with the puzzled Atalanta, but at the moment when they turned their backs to the Sphinx.
