When they came down from the mountain, apart from the high and mighty gods, it was almost impossible for anyone to catch their eye.
"Brother Hercules was able to restrain his arrogance because the goddess of 'Vice' and the goddess of 'Virtue' appeared before him at the same time.
And he finally chose 'Virtue' and signed a contract with the goddess of 'Virtue'.
As for you...you would never do anything to bring shame to the goddess Artemis, right?"
"Of course!" Atalanta answered Jason instantly.
At the same time, I also understood what Jason meant.
"how about you?"
"Me?" Jason looked at Atalanta and was silent for a while. "My words...are different from yours, so we can't generalize."
"Indeed." Atalanta nodded. "If it weren't for the oracle, you wouldn't even be able to become captain and would have run away long ago."
"Yes." Jason sighed, then leaned towards Atalanta and said, "Atalanta, since you know so much, why don't you let me hug you and comfort my young heart!"
"Don't think about it!"
Seeing Jason approaching so shamelessly, Atalanta was like a kitten with its fur standing on end, ready to fight back...
Tick, tick.
"Hey, it's raining..."
Jason looked up, and Atalanta looked up as well, looking at the sky which was extremely clear a moment ago but now suddenly became dark.
Jason's face suddenly turned bitter.
Atalanta couldn't help laughing.
"It seems... the trial has begun again."
"I thought they were reluctant to leave..." Jason muttered, and couldn't help rolling his eyes at Atalanta, saying, "Why are you so happy? We are going to be in trouble!"
Atalanta looked at the depressed Jason, smiled, and did not answer.
Then, when Jason's expression turned serious again, he called upon the Argo's spirit and gave the order...
"Because, although I feel a little sorry for you, but... I want to see it."
Atalanta whispered, "I really want to see it, because you look so handsome like this."
"Well, are you saying anything Atalanta?"
Jason turned his head and looked at Atalanta in confusion.
What he got was a calm Atalanta who shook her head slightly in response.
"Brother Jason... No, Captain!"
Then, Hercules ran over and looked at Jason.
At this moment, his eyes also became excited.
Immediately, more and more Argonauts stopped what they were doing and gathered here.
Seeing this, Jason took a deep breath and said to them, "It is obvious that the great gods have prepared a test for us again, and we... are naturally prepared to face any test!"
"Now, Argo, listen to my orders. Everyone, get ready and grab whatever's around you. Be careful not to get thrown out!"
"Argo... advance with all your might and speed, and escape this torrential rain!"
After saying that, Jason turned around and hugged Atalanta with his backhand...
And the next moment, the marks and magic circles all over the Argo ship lit up.
Finally, there was only a golden light, which disappeared into the dark rainstorm!

PS: Ah, I touched the fish in my hand, wow, it’s so big!
Ahem, I'll touch it again today. I went out for dinner in the afternoon and have an appointment in the evening. I'll see about tomorrow. I wonder if I can update one more chapter tomorrow... Well, if I can, I will try my best to update one more chapter tomorrow!
See you all tomorrow then.
Chapter 3 Hera's Alertness! (k)
Sitting there and waiting for death is definitely not Jason's character.
In life, in ancient Greece, where gods roamed everywhere and demigod heroes were as numerous as dogs, one had to be cautious and prudent in doing things.
But when encountering an incident, blindly giving in and enduring is actually the worst option!
Therefore, even though we know that the current storm is caused by God.
It will take the Argonauts to the so-called trial ground.
But sitting back and waiting for death is definitely not the right answer.
Never give control of your direction to someone else.
Because this is... really stupid!
Then, the Argo, driven at full power, turned into a golden ray of light under Jason's command and rushed out of the storm!
In an instant, the dazzling sunlight shone on the Argonaut, whose marks and magic circles had dimmed, and on the heroes who had survived the disaster.
Then......
“Ugh…Ugh—!”
One counts as one.
These were the heroes of the Argonauts who had just clung to the ship's hull and avoided being thrown off at such a rapid speed.
After I recovered, I immediately felt my stomach churning and started vomiting.
This made the Argo ship spirit, who had reunited her body, look very unhappy.
......
"If... this is also a test."
Above the clouds, Amphitrite, the Queen of the Sea, used her divine power to witness the Argo breaking out of the rainstorm. Not only was she not angry, but she also had a smile on her face.
Then, he said to Hera beside him: "They have obviously made another breakthrough, right Hera?"
Hera didn't answer.
Her beautiful golden eyes stared quietly at Jason who had let go of Atalanta below.
After a long pause, he said, "Where's Athena...why hasn't she come yet?"
"I don't know." The hearth goddess Hestia shook her head and said, "I haven't been able to contact her recently. I don't know where she went..."
"Athena's not here, I'm here."
Holding down his feather hat, the cunning god, Hermes, came over and said with a smile: "Great Queen Hera, it is my honor to relieve your worries and stress. As for Athena, she...
I think she might have gone to play with the child of Hercules in white."
As Hermes said this, he pulled his hat down slightly and looked at Hera with a very obscure gaze.
Carefully observing her face for any slight reaction.
“…Is that so?”
Hera was silent for a long time before she said, "Then Hermes, tell me what kind of trouble we should bring to Jason next."
Hearing Hera's words, Hermes smiled as he pushed his hat down.
Athena, if you don't come back soon, you might... miss the most crucial drama!
"As far as I know, there's a sea monster called Scylla in the strait they must pass through. If they want to pass through it, they must sacrifice six lives before it will let the ship pass."
"Scylla? ...Why do I feel that this name sounds familiar?"
Hera muttered to herself.
"Of course it sounds familiar to you, great Queen Hera, for she was once a beautiful water nymph, and the sister of the Hesperides, who guarded the Garden of Golden Apples for you."
Hermes answered Hera's question.
"She's a water nymph? ... Then how did she become a sea monster?"
Hestia asked doubtfully.
"It's because of that goddess's outstanding student... Circe, the Night Witch, a student of the goddess Hecate."
"...a student of Hecate?"
Hera frowned.
"That's right." Hermes nodded, and then slowly told the three goddesses.
Once upon a time, there lived a handsome fisherman named Glaucus.
He was favored by the sea god and received a gift. After taking a special herb, he woke up with a fish tail and a human body, thus becoming one of the sea gods.
Then Glaucus fell deeply in love with the beautiful water nymph Scylla. After several unsuccessful pursuits, he sought help from the famous night witch Circe.
He hoped that she could make him a magic potion that would make the beautiful water nymph Scylla fall in love with him.
However, in this process, Glaucus' passionate love did not win Scylla, but won the heart of Circe.
The witches advised him to give up Scylla and be with her instead, but Glaucus refused.
Therefore, the angry witch Circe pretended to agree to Glaucus' request, prepared a magic potion and gave it to him.
Then, just as Glaucus excitedly sneaked to where Scylla usually showered, sprinkled the potion into it, and waited excitedly on the side.
Little did he know that what he got was a sea monster called Scylla that turned into a terrifying monster as big as an island.
Scylla, who then turned into a sea monster, learned that it was Glaucus who did it, and in anger, she ate him in one bite.
Eventually, Scylla became a famous sea monster, guarding the strait and devouring the lives of humans on passing ships.
“To think something like this actually happened…”
Amphitrite, the Queen of the Sea, frowned.
"That's right...and no matter what the outcome of this test is, it will surely satisfy you, the great goddess Hera."
Hermes said with a smile.
"Why?"
The three goddesses looked at Hermes with some confusion.
“Because there are only two ways to break through the land of the Siren Scylla.
One of them is to sacrifice six lives to her.
The second is to kill her.
Regardless of which of these two options Jason chooses, Goddess Hera will have a reason to ridicule and teach him a lesson."
Hermes said, “If Jason chooses to sacrifice six lives, then Goddess Hera, you can undoubtedly laugh at his weakness without restraint.
As for if he kills Scylla, then you can tell Jason the whole story of how Scylla turned into a siren.
Then he questioned Jason, who had killed Scylla indiscriminately, and condemned him!"
Hera's eyes lit up at Hermes' words.
However, Hestia and Amphitrite looked anxious.
"This...this is not good!"
Hestia couldn't help but say, "Isn't this too unfair to Jason..."
Hestia said, glaring at Hermes.
What are you doing!
"No, I think this is fine."
Hera said to Hermes, "Then I'll leave this matter to you, Hermes!"
"As you command, great goddess Hera."
Hermes took off his hat, saluted Hera, turned around and left.
