Russell also said goodbye quietly, then put his hands together and prayed like Atalanta.
"Artemis, please respond to my..."
"Wait a moment!"
Atalanta's departure suddenly stopped.
She turned around extremely quickly, rushing to the distance in front of Russell even faster, and her tone lost its maintained coldness. She shouted: "You are not allowed... You are not allowed to pray to Lady Artemis... Pray!!!"
......
“Set sail and set sail!!!”
Some time had passed since Jason excitedly stood at the highest point on the ship and made such a declaration.
The Argo, loaded with heroes, has been sailing for some time with the blessing of the gods.
Asclepius still had an indifferent expression. Holding a purple bottle, he walked over to Russell who was looking from afar.
"Sisyphus, the ultimate product of the medical skills I pursue has finally shown some progress, but..."
After considering it, Asclepius said with a rare hesitation.
"Perhaps, the new material needed now is some kind of divine power..."
“Divine power!”
Russell uttered an ambiguous sigh.
During this time, he used his clairvoyance more than once.
But he could only see Artemis, who was bound to him. As for the other Mecha gods, they seemed to be shrouded in fog and could not be seen clearly.
Something must have happened in this Greek myth.
Russell made such a judgment.
Whether it was Zeus's operation of integrating the Mecha Gods in the original plot or the guidance given by the Omniscient and Omnipotent Star, Russell realized that the abnormality in Greece might be related to Zeus.
Moreover, during this period of time, he did not encounter any Greek gods other than Artemis.
Is this reasonable?
Logically speaking, even if he has no so-called fate, there is no "gravity of fate" between him and other gods.
However, the Argo was a ship that clearly received help from Athena and was blessed by her and the gods.
Although Russell could indeed feel Athena's blessing as the goddess of victory, he had never seen the true form of the goddess.
Therefore, in response to Asclepius's request for help, Russell pondered for a moment and then threw out some divine power.
"Aunt Artemis's power..."
Feeling the soft moonlight in his hand, Asclepius's expression, which had remained unchanged for thousands of years, became a little surprised.
"Would you mind trying this?"
Russell remembered that in the original plot, the resurrection potion made by Asclepius was not solely based on his medical skills, but was made with the help of various factors and coincidences.
Asclepius himself did not fully understand how to make this resurrection potion.
but......
When he resurrected Hippolytus, son of Theseus, he was said to have acquired the power of Artemis.
Therefore, it should be right to give this power.
It is said that when the resurrection potion was prepared, Asclepius was punished by the angry Zeus and died.
There is absolutely nothing wrong in giving help to Asclepius.
Maybe it can bring out Zeus.
"By the way, Asclepius, when you are about to achieve results, remember to come to me first."
Let Asclepius be the bait, but don't let him really die.
Russell had no intention of letting his friend pass away like this.
"I see......"
Asclepius seemed to understand something and nodded.
Then, Russell looked at the island in the distance and chuckled, "Well, let's take a look at the heroes' first stop..."
"The hero's first stop?"
A cold voice sounded beside Russell.
Atalanta sensed the power of the Moon Goddess coming, but she didn't expect it was Russell who was exercising it. She was a little disappointed, but also a little curious about the hero's first stop.
These days, her relationship with Russell has made some progress.
The progress includes "not losing control when seeing the various symbols of intimacy between Russell and Artemis, etc." and "not shedding tears when she lies in her own quilt at night and thinks that Artemis may become Russell's lover after she wakes up."
“I don’t know what we will face.”
"perhaps......"
There was a hint of smile in Russell's tone.
"This is probably the most difficult stage for some of the heroes on the ship."
"what?!"
31. Lemnos
Lemnos Island.
The heroes approaching the island could already see the golden sandy beaches that were common among the Greek islands.
The vast, lush fruit trees, accompanied by the sea breeze, brought the heroes a fresh fragrance, making the heroes who had been sailing on the sea for a long time unable to resist the urge to taste the fresh fruits and drink the clear spring water.
only......
Before landing on the island, Jason found Russell.
"Ah! Sisyphus, I heard you think this island would be a very difficult disaster for the crew, don't you?"
He handed the full glass to Russell and asked cautiously, "Can you tell me why?"
"How should I put it..."
After thinking for a moment, Russell did not reveal the reasons why the island became what it is now, but only told what might happen in the future.
"Because their husbands abandoned them for some reason, the women on this island killed all their husbands and isolated themselves from the outside world."
"So, you're hostile towards male heroes like us?"
Upon hearing this, Jason laughed heartily and said nonchalantly, "My crew are the best heroes! Such a scene, such a threat, there's no way they can be stopped!"
This undisguised statement was warmly agreed upon by the crew members who heard it.
"Well said! Jason!!!"
"No, on the contrary, the women of this island are not hostile to heroes..."
Maybe there was hostility before.
But since the story of the Argonauts began to spread, the women on the island who heard about it discussed it and began to welcome it warmly.
Russell explained to Jason's puzzled expression, "The women on this island welcome heroes very much, and even look forward to it. They will offer wealth, land, and even beauty in order to gain the hero's protection."
"Is that right?"
Jason's expression suddenly became very serious, and his tone was particularly heavy at this moment.
"It's indeed a very dangerous test for a hero. As the captain and the most courageous hero on this ship, I must lead by example and blaze a trail for my crew."
"Everyone, let Master Jason lead the charge!"
"No! Captain Jason, we love you so much! How can we let our beloved captain lead the charge? Let me and the others go first!!!"
"Yes, it's such a dangerous matter, how can we let our captain go first?"
"Captain Jason, you go last!"
"Why do you only call me Captain at times like this?"
Jason complained with dissatisfaction about the crew's excuses.
Russell asked in confusion, "Jason, didn't you say you should respect Hera, the Queen of Heaven, who helped you, and Athena, the goddess of victory, who blessed you?"
"Shouldn't we do that kind of thing before we set sail?"
Jason answered with great confidence. He was not a pure Greek hero. On the contrary, he had no resistance to beauty...
No, well, he just has no resistance to any temptation.
Unless it involved his dreams.
"Now that it's appearing during the voyage, which is also a challenge, it must have been approved by the goddess!"
It's completely a fallacy.
Russell sighed helplessly.
This guy is really the type who is cautious in the early stage, a little reckless in the middle stage, and then reckless in the late stage without caring about anything.
No wonder this guy's view on marriage is the type that says sweet words and makes promises generously before marriage, but doesn't keep his promises after marriage...
"I'm coming!!!"
When the Argo officially docked at Lemnos, the heroes who heard what Russell said could no longer bear it and jumped directly onto Lemnos and began to run towards the center of the island.
"I heard someone thank you for delivering such valuable 'information', Sisyphus..."
Atalanta appeared in front of Russell, looking at the so-called hero who rushed off the boat excitedly with contempt.
"Why, aren't you going with us?"
"Do you think I'm someone who would be defeated by such temptation?"
From Russell's perspective, the entire island is filled with the so-called charming atmosphere.
If I were to describe it by color, I'm afraid it can only be described as an indescribable pink that only appears in taboo works.
"Yes."
Atalanta's answer was concise and powerful.
But in fact, this is a hypocritical answer.
The emerald green hair full of natural fragrance was blown by the wandering sea breeze, naturally covering up the unnatural emotions in Atalanta's gem-like clear eyes.
Atalanta naturally knew that Russell would not be defeated by such temptation.
After all, this guy is always surrounded by such temptations. If he is easily defeated, he will definitely drown in some gentle place.
but......
"Because you are a complete playboy... No! You are a playboy."
Atalanta said this sincerely.
She denied that Russell would be easily tempted, but did not deny that he was a playboy.
You could also say...
"Rather than being defeated by temptation, I think you are more like the temptation that defeats others."
"After thinking about it, I can't seem to deny this..." Russell suddenly said, looking at Atalanta beside him. "But, this is the same for you, right?"
"what?"
Atalanta looked up in confusion and looked at Russell.
Russell pointed at Atalanta's delicate face and said sarcastically, "You should be aware of this, right? Your charm is very attractive to men..."
"..."
Indeed, Atalanta had such awareness.
In the past, when she walked into a crowd, the men would become like beasts in heat.
After all, this is Greece, and the overall atmosphere is one of pursuing desire and indulgence.
