"...because of the oracle."
Jason thought for a while, and replied with a smile to Argus: "I came to you because of the oracle."
"The oracle?" Argus was taken aback, and then asked Jason curiously: "Could it be that you have seen Hera, the queen of heaven?...Could it be that the great queen of heaven, Hera, asked you to come?" Did you come here?"
Regarding Argus' questioning, Jason, who smiled slightly, did not give an explanation, because...you can't lie!
Yes, for monsters like Argos, and gods, lies are extremely easy to be exposed, unless you have the blessing of the messenger of the gods and Hermes, the god of deceit.
But not being able to lie doesn't mean not being able to guide.
You may call me Hercules, I come because of the oracle...
These two sentences are not false.
Because Jason did not say that he was called Hercules, and he did come because of the oracle, but it was not the oracle of Hera, but the oracle of Athena, Hermes and other gods!
"Honorable hundred-eyed giant Argos, I came before you because of the guidance of the oracle, and I know that I have been strictly observing the instructions of the great god to watch over Io, and I have never let up for a moment.
So now, in this silent night, I hope that I can have the honor to play a beautiful piece of music for you, which is why I came to you. "
After hearing Jason's words, the hundred-eyed giant Argus was naturally a little surprised, but he didn't refuse.
After all, after the short conversation just now, the mind of the hundred-eyed giant Argos has naturally formed.
The handsome man Hercules in white in front of him came here because of the oracle of Hera, the queen of heaven, and rewarded himself for his meritorious service in guarding Io.
So in the end, it happily agreed to Jason's request.
Seeing this, Jason couldn't help showing a faint smile on his face.
Immediately, she cast her eyes away, looked aside secretly, followed her instructions, and Atalanta, who had been silent all this time, made a look.
Seeing this, Atalanta nodded her head lightly to express her understanding, and her beautiful emerald eyes quietly looked at the heifer Io, whose expression darkened after hearing the conversation between them.
Then I saw Jason taking out the antique reed flute, which was also a gift from Hermes to Jason.
This is a magic flute, and those who hear its sound will feel drowsy because they are intoxicated by the sound of the flute.
Even ordinary gods can hardly resist such magic power!
Picking up the magic flute, Jason immediately blew the wonderful sound of the flute to the hundred-eyed giant Argus.
The beautiful sound of the flute also quickly attracted Argos' attention, making him gradually intoxicated by the beautiful sound of the flute.
But at this moment, Io who was on the side raised his head and looked suspiciously at Jason who played the magic flute.
Because it didn't hear the flute.
This is also one of the special features of the magic flute. It can choose the object, and the object chosen by its owner, under the sound of the magic flute, even if the ears are covered, the sound will still sound in his mind.
The sound of the magic flute gradually made Argus feel drowsy, but when he thought of the order Hera gave him, Argus had to force himself to continue listening to the sound of the flute played by Jason .
Argus actually vaguely sensed something was wrong at this moment, but he didn't think much about it when he looked at Hercules in white in front of him.
It's just that I have been too tired recently.
So Argus fought against the drowsiness desperately, letting some eyes sleep first, while leaving the other eyes open, watching the heifer Io closely.
Jason naturally noticed this, and frowned slightly.
He didn't expect that the magic flute specially designed for Argos would still not be able to close all the eyes of the other party.
And if it continues like this, Argus will most likely interrupt Jason's playing because of drowsiness in the end, so as to keep himself awake.
So after a short thought, Jason thought of another way.
"My lord Argos, I wonder if you would like to hear me tell a story...the story about the reed flute bestowed upon me by the gods."
Putting down the magic flute, Jason said slowly: "Actually, when the great god gave me this reed flute, he also told me its story."
Hearing this, Argus naturally thought that the god who presented the magic flute was Hera, the queen of heaven, and said, "So this exquisite reed flute was given to you by the great queen Hera of heaven. I'm very interested in your story now, tell me, Hercules."
"Okay, Lord Argus." The corners of Jason's mouth rose slightly, knowing that Argus had taken the bait, he said, "Once upon a time, there lived a famous nymph fairy on the snow mountain of Arcadia. , and her name was Hamadryades.
At that time, both the satyr and Saturn were obsessed with her beauty and pursued her passionately, but she always managed to get rid of their pursuit skillfully, because she was afraid of marriage.
Like the beautiful Artemis, the goddess of the moon, the nymph wanted to remain celibate and live a virgin life.
But at last when Pan, the mighty mountain god, was roaming the forest, he saw the goddess, approached her, and wooed her eagerly based on his eminence, which was naturally rejected by her.
But Pan Zai, the mountain god, did not intend to let her go, and kept chasing the fairy.
So the fairy fled to the Latong River along the way. The river was flowing slowly, but the river was so wide that she couldn't wade across it.
Facing the mountain gods who became more and more serious behind her, the nymph goddess had no choice but to beg her patron goddess Artemis to sympathize with her.
The moon god Artemis finally heard the call of the nymph goddess, and when the mountain god came to her, she turned it into a reed, allowing her to escape the mountain god's pursuit.
And this reed flute is made from this..."
While Jason was telling the story slowly, in order to match the story, he added the playing of the magic flute in the middle. He fell into a deep sleep under the sound of the flute.
Jason looked at Argus who had closed his eyes all over his body.
Turning his head, he nodded slightly to Atalanta.
Atalanta understood, raised her head and glanced hesitantly at Argos, who was as tall as a hill and had eyes all over her body.
In the end, he walked lightly behind it, smelling Jason's story, before the drowsy Io.
Io looked at the hunter who was walking towards him slowly, his eyes were as sharp as those of animals, and he was dressed in beautiful emerald green clothes.
Doubt could not help but flow out of the eyes, and at the same time there was also some small fear.
And at this moment, Io found that Jason was looking at him.
And show yourself a gentle smile, put your hand to your mouth, wink at yourself, and keep yourself from talking.
Io looked at this handsome man in white clothes, like Apollo, the god of light, and looked into his clear eyes, the uneasiness in his heart gradually receded, and he let Atalanta come in front of him.
And when Atalanta came to Io, he took out a bottle of potion from his bosom...it was the potion that Jason gave her on the way here.
Shapeshifting potions.
Atalanta opened it and signaled Io to drink it, and then transformed Io, who had been transformed into a heifer, into a white kitten.
Then I saw Atalanta holding the kitten in her arms, and carefully leaving Argos' side.
"Take her to her father first, Atalanta." Jason said softly to Atalanta when Atalanta approached.
"What about you?" Atalanta looked at Jason.
"If I leave now, it will go crazy and catch up."
Jason said to Atalanta with a faint smile.
Atalanta looked at Jason, and at Argus, the hundred-eyed giant who was like a hill.
"...It's too dangerous, I can help you by staying here, just let Tianma take her away."
Jason shook his head and looked at Atalanta: "You should have not forgotten the promise you made with me, right?"
Atalanta looked at Jason for a while, then turned around, and sat on the Pegasus with Io who had turned into a little white cat.
Compared to Atalanta, Pegasus seemed determined to need it, flapped its wings directly, turned into a shooting star in the night sky, and flew out.
After seeing them all leave, Jason turned his head to look at Argus in front of him... Jason was not sure how long the effect of the magic flute would last.
So Jason continued to play the magic flute, and at the same time freed up a hand to take out the silver tin staff.
Holding the tin rod, lightly touch the ground.
Then, with a soft sound, the magic engraved on the tin staff began to take effect, and a dark magic circle appeared on the ground out of thin air, and quickly extended.
Under the dark night, this ghostly magic circle looked so dazzling, enveloping Jason and the hundred-eyed giant Argos in it.
And with the development of the magic-the realm of the underworld, the blooming white flowers of the other shore appeared in this area.
And under the influence of such magic and huge magic power, Argus, the hundred-eyed giant, opened his eyes even though Jason kept playing the magic flute.
In an instant, the closed eyes opened together, and under the dark night, they looked at Jason in front of him!
Seeing this, Jason also slowly put down the magic flute, smiled faintly at Argus, and said, "Master Argus, you are awake."
"...what are you doing, Hercules!"
Argus frowned and looked at the world in front of him. While questioning Jason, he suddenly looked behind him as if thinking of something.
"Where is Io...Wait, where did Io go!"
The giant's roar sounded like thunder in Jason's ears.
But Jason still looked very indifferent... even if he was stared at by the monster with a hundred eyes in front of him.
After all, I have even seen a Cthulhu-style Radon with a hundred heads, so I naturally have a certain immunity to a hundred eyes.
"Lord Argos, Io has been taken away...I asked Atalanta to take her back to his father."
Now, after Atalanta and Io had left, Jason directly explained to Argus why he came.
Argus froze for a moment when he heard this, looked at the environment in front of him, how could he not understand what happened, so he looked at Jason angrily, and said: "How dare you deceive human beings... "
"No, noble one-eyed giant Argos, I did not deceive you. I am indeed the Hercules you mentioned."
Jason interrupted Argos, and said to him with a smile: "But I didn't come here because of the oracle of Hera.
Now, please allow me to introduce myself to you again. "
Jason put away the magic flute, bowed to Argos, and said with a smile: "My name is actually Jason...Of course you can continue to call me Hercules, and at the same time It is true that I also came because of the oracle.
But my oracle is the oracle of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and the oracle of Hermes, the messenger of the gods. They let me come to you so that I can rescue the princess who is trapped by you—Io! "
"Now that Io has been taken away by me, I wonder if you are willing to leave, Lord Argos, and treat everything as if you didn't see it?"
"Damn it!" After listening to Jason's words, Argus, who knew what was going on, couldn't help burning with anger in his eyes.
"I don't care if you are Hercules or Jason, but you dare to let Io go. Do you know that this will definitely draw the wrath of Queen Hera!"
Speaking of which, Argus stretched out his hand, and grabbed Jason who looked so small in front of him.
"Human, you should die, but I will not kill you, because I will take you to the great queen Helana, and let the queen Hera interrogate you in person.
And let me tell you, no matter where Io is taken and hidden by you, I will definitely capture her back! "
Facing Argos who was waving over, Jason did not appear flustered.
Even the corner of Jason's mouth was raised slightly, and he muttered softly: "Actually, if you leave here... it will be a trouble for me!"
