Helios observed Jason and saw that even though Jason was so close to the sun chariot, he still behaved so calmly and dignifiedly, and his eyes showed approval.

I thought to myself that it was worthy of being the center of conversation among the gods recently, and it had created many heroes that even the gods admired.

He then took out the holy ointment and prepared to anoint Jason so that he would not be burned by the blazing flames.

What surprised both of them was that the white clothes Jason was wearing suddenly ignited with the dark blue eternal fire of the underworld.

The eternal fire surrounded Jason's body, blocking the flames of the sun chariot. Under the protection of the eternal fire, Jason's frown relaxed.

"The eternal fire of the underworld? ... Child, were these clothes of yours personally tailored for you by the goddess of wisdom, Athena?"

Helios asked in slight surprise.

"Um...Lord Helios knows?"

"The main thing is that in this world, the only one who can weave clothes like this, which even I can't tell, is Athena."

Helios smiled and put down the holy anointing, saying, “It seems that you are very much loved by Athena… plus Artemis and Hecate.

Although I'd heard about it before, seeing it with my own eyes still surprised me... Mainly because they haven't started fighting yet, which is really strange."

Jason thought the previous words were nothing.

After smelling the latter part, Jason couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

And as he looked at Helios who was muttering like this, he found that he couldn't refute it... What nonsense!

Jason, feeling a slight headache, changed the subject and said, "Great Lord Helios, may I ask... should I now have the honor of riding in your noble sun chariot?"

"Yes." Helios nodded, patted Jason's shoulder with a smile, and said, "And not only will I let you ride it, I'd also like you to personally drive it today, under my supervision... Speaking of which, this chariot was built by your teacher and given to me."

"My teacher?" Jason was stunned for a moment. "Teacher Hephaestus?"

"Yes." Helios nodded, then took Jason forward and said, "Come on, son. You only have one day to familiarize yourself with the sun chariot. I hope you can save my poor child Phaethon tomorrow!"

Chapter 4: The Peak of Heaven (k)

Four Pegasus whose bodies are burning with flames and whose breath even carries sparks.

Carrying the sun god Helios sitting on the sun chariot, and the hero Hercules in white, they galloped towards the blue sky.

That’s right, the one sitting on the sun chariot now is not Jason, but the great hero in white, Hercules!

Before getting on the sun chariot, Jason asked Helios to let him wear a mask and transform himself into the white-clad hero Hercules.

The reason, of course, was because of Hera... After all, she had to sit on the sun chariot with a mortal body and drive it forward.

Jason didn't dare to bet that Hera, the Queen of Heaven, would be napping and not notice it.

Sitting in the golden sun chariot, the high-temperature flames burning in the chariot rushed towards Jason.

But under the protection of the eternal fire of the underworld, such flames would not affect Jason in the slightest.

Because the flame on the body of the sun body is not the real divine fire.

In Greek mythology, there is such a typical story.

Prometheus, the prophetic god, was the great god who stole the divine fire and gave it to mankind.

When facing the angry accusations of the king of gods Zeus, he argued that it was not him who stole the divine fire and gave it to humans, but that the sun chariot accidentally set the forest on fire while flying, and humans obtained the fire from it.

But the gods Zeus and his companions did not believe Prometheus' words at all, because the flame on the sun chariot was completely different from the divine fire and was a second-rate flame.

Therefore, the eternal fire in Jason's body could easily withstand the flames of the sun chariot.

After the sun god Helios sat on the sun chariot and held the reins of the four flaming Pegasus in his hands, his expression immediately became extremely serious.

Even a powerful god like him did not dare to relax at all when driving the sun chariot, and he tried his best.

After all, even Zeus, the most powerful god among the Olympian gods, did not want to appear to stop the sun chariot while it was running.

As for the other Olympian gods, even the god of war Ares did not dare to do so.

Athena's words may have some basis, after all, she holds the world's strongest shield in her hand.

Driven by the sun god Helios, the sun chariot gradually broke through the clouds and reached the highest point in the sky.

This was a territory that even Pegasus had never flown over, which made Jason, who was sitting quietly there, feel a little curious.

He lowered his head and looked towards the earth.

"Don't look, kid!"

Seeing this, Helios couldn't help but be shocked!

Because at this moment, the sun chariot, driven by Helios, has arrived at the highest place in the journey, which is the top of the sky!

In such a place, even Helios, the sun god, would feel dizzy and dare not look down at the ground.

Because as long as he looked at the earth, the boundless vast land and ocean would make even a god like him feel terrified!

Therefore, in Helios's view, Jason, who was looking at such a vast earth for the first time, would surely be terrified and frightened by such a scene, his face would turn pale, and he would be panicked and extremely frightened.

Helios didn't want to leave a bad impression on Jason the first time, or even leave him with a psychological trauma.

After all, his child Phaethon would be driving the sun chariot tomorrow. What if Jason, the only one who could save his child, suddenly ran away out of fear!

And then, just when Helios was worried about this...

"Um, I'm sorry, Master Helios."

Hearing Helios' voice, Jason withdrew his gaze, and under Helios' gaze, he showed an expression of deep regret.

"I was just a little curious. I won't be watching anymore, Lord Helios."

Although Jason didn't know what happened to Helios suddenly, he still admitted his mistake obediently.

He withdrew his gaze and continued to sit obediently in the solar chariot, gazing straight at the boundless sky in front of him.

Seeing this, Helios was stunned for a moment. After observing Jason carefully for a while, a strange look appeared on his face.

"Jason...oh no, Hercules."

"Hmm?" Jason tilted his head, looked at Helios, and said respectfully, "Great Sun God Helios, may I ask for your help?"

"No, it's that... Do you think the scenery down there is beautiful?"

Helios organized his words for a while, then stared at Jason and asked.

Jason was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously leaned forward and looked at the ground again.

Then he retracted his gaze and faced Helios who was looking at him with wide eyes. Jason thought to himself that it was bad and said quickly, "I'm sorry, Lord Helios, I didn't mean to look at the ground. I just..."

"It's okay, it's okay." Helios interrupted Jason and continued, "Do you think it's beautiful?"

"Hmm... Beautiful!"

Jason thought for a while and thought that since the sun god Helios pulled his sun chariot around like this every day, he must also think the ground is beautiful.

And looking from the sky to the ground, it is actually very beautiful.

Especially from the city, sitting in front of the airplane window, looking down at the earth as the plane flies higher and higher, you will really feel it is very beautiful and extremely interesting.

Because as the plane flies higher, the earth becomes smaller and smaller, and looking at the buildings on the ground, it gives people the feeling of playing a game called "Civilization".

It's really interesting to be able to clearly see the changes that take place in the city over time from an airplane.

"...Child." Hearing Jason's answer and gazing into Jason's holy blue eyes, the expression of the sun god Helios gradually became strange, and he said: "You... are not afraid at all?

And don’t you feel dizzy?”

"Afraid?" Jason was slightly stunned.

Why should I be afraid? ...Oh, come to think of it, the first time I took a plane, I was really scared. I felt my legs were shaking.

As for the dizziness...

"I'm not scared, but if I feel dizzy...Is I lacking oxygen?"

Jason's expression gradually became a little strange as he looked at Helios.

Can the sun god also suffer from lack of oxygen?

"Hypoxia?" Helios was slightly stunned. "What is hypoxia?"

"Um... Lord Helios, can I ask you something?"

Jason pondered for a moment, then said to the puzzled Helios, "Lord Helios, do you feel a little dizzy every time you drive the sun chariot to this place...especially when you stay in this place for too long? But do these symptoms gradually disappear when the sun chariot starts to fly towards the ground?"

"How do you know?" Helios looked at Jason in surprise.

How should I know? ...Because I've been having trouble breathing ever since. You, a god, can actually feel it!

"Actually, this is what I'm most worried about. When Phaethon arrives here in his sun chariot, he'll surely be frightened to the point of trembling legs and feeling dizzy due to the height.

In that case, he would definitely not be able to grab the reins of the horse, and might even fall off the Sun Chariot. It was too dangerous!

But I'm happy that you're not afraid at all, kid. I'm sure you'll be able to handle tomorrow's mission!"

"Well... I'm sorry, Lord Helios, but I may disappoint you. Even I would feel dizzy, nauseous, and even lose my spirit."

Jason thought for a moment and replied truthfully.

"What?" Helios was startled and looked at Jason and said, "But you are not afraid at all!"

"Because of lack of oxygen... Actually, there's a missing device on this sun chariot. Helios, you know that my teacher is Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen, right?

So the solution to this problem is very simple. If you allow me, Master Helios, I will ask the teacher to come over tonight and install the device that he didn't install originally. By then, this situation will definitely not occur again."

Jason explained in words Helios could understand.

Hearing Jason's words, Helios naturally seemed a little skeptical because he didn't understand...but he naturally nodded and agreed.

After all, humans cannot lie to gods. Helios is very curious whether Jason can solve the problem that has troubled him for hundreds of years!

At this moment, Jason also felt that it was nonsense.

How can you, a sun god, feel dizzy due to lack of oxygen?

But then again, in this place, the sun chariot can still burn and run, so it's ridiculous that Pegasus is fine at all.

But no matter how much nonsense we talk about, the most ridiculous thing is that there really are gods in this world and that they have divine power, so Jason accepted it.

After all, reality is more magical than writing a book.

Reality does not require logic at all. Even in illogical things, because it is reality, you have to accept it even if you don’t want to. You have no choice!

So all in all, Jason still felt fortunate that he had the chance to experience this today.

If he went on stage directly tomorrow and discovered the problem then, what would be the consequences... Jason felt that he should be fine. After all, he had bathed in the Styx and been tempered by the underworld fire, so his body could really withstand it.

As for the man named Phaethon, let alone anything else, he would most likely go into shock due to lack of oxygen.

What happened next was a natural progression.

Although Helios didn't quite understand what Jason said, he saw that Jason was not afraid, so he boldly handed the reins to Jason.

And Jason accepted it without delay.

We will go to the battlefield tomorrow, it would be foolish to postpone it now.

At the same time, with the belt of the god of war Ares, Jason naturally had great strength to pull the reins and control the four violent flaming Pegasus.

Then, at the highest point of the sky, Jason, pulling the reins, began to rapidly descend from the sky with the sun chariot under the guidance of Helios!

Just like the midday sun, it begins to set.

The road turns sharply, so you need to hold the reins firmly and drive carefully.

Faced with such a situation, Helios, who was sitting next to Jason, had an extremely serious expression. He stared at the situation intently, ready to help Jason if any accident occurred.

Because even he had to cheer himself up to prevent himself from falling directly from the sky into the bottom of the sea.

Although he will not die from this, the burning sun chariot, which represents the sun's sun chariot, will fall into the sea.

That... is not a joking matter!

But what surprised Helios was that even until the end, the situation Helios was worried about never happened.

After all, Jason cherishes his life more than him, more than anyone else, including gods.

Even the Centaur sage Chiron said that he trusted Jason the most.
