Chapter 50: Can't We Just Get Married? (Subscribe!)

[Happy times are always short, and after one night of revelry, the prosperity is over. ]

[The heroes have also waited for the time to part. ]

[Jason holds your hand, unwilling to let you go. ]

["Zoe, my best brother, if I can, I really don't want to be separated from you. ]

["But I also know that you have your own way to go, and I can't force you to stay... But I still want to tell you that if one day you are tired and want to find a place to rest, you can come to me." ]

["My kingdom will always be open to you. As long as you come, I will share my glory, my wealth, and everything I have with you!"]

[These words are so heartfelt that even you are slightly moved.]

[After spending time together on the Argonaut voyage, you became good friends with Jason, Hercules, and Orpheus.]

[They really don't want to part with you.]

[But you also know that after sending you a thousand miles, you must say goodbye.]

[Everyone has his own life and his own way to go. When we are together, we may occasionally be together, but when we part, we should also be separated.]

[If we are destined to meet, we will see each other again in the future.]

["I am leaving, and you should also take care of yourselves. I hope we can get together and drink together next year!"]

["Take care, everyone! May your life be as glorious as the Argo!"]

[The young man waved goodbye, and this legendary journey came to an end.]

[The heroes went their separate ways and took different paths.]

.....]

["What are you following me for?"]

[The cat-eared lady frowned her pretty eyebrows, and the cat ears on both sides of her head bounced slightly, looking very touchable.]

["Didn't Her Majesty Artemis tell you?"]

["What?"]

["She asked me to go to the Kingdom of Calydon to hunt the wild boar she left behind. "780"]

["Let you go?"]

["Yes, to be precise, let us go together!"]

[Hearing this, Atalanta glanced at Anna who was following you, Medea who had sneaked in, and Togo who was staring at her eagerly.]

[The cold expression relaxed a little, but the mouth was still very hard, refusing people at a distance: "No need, just a wild boar, ten of me can do it!"]

["Oh, then you can talk to Her Majesty Artemis yourself, as long as she agrees, I won't go. "]

[

[Who doesn't know that Atalanta is Artemis's loyal fangirl?]

[How could a devout believer refute the oracle issued by the gods?]

[You know, when Atalanta was abandoned, Artemis, who was passing by, felt sorry for Atalanta, so she found a lactating bear to "raise Atalanta."]

[For this cat-eared lady, Artemis is not just a god of faith, but in a sense, one of her mothers.]

[Why one of them?]

[There is also a mother bear and Atalanta's biological mother!]

["It's up to you, as long as you can keep up!"]

[As the best of this era Hunter, Atalanta's running speed is unparalleled in the world. Even in the dense jungle, she can still come and go freely. ]

[She is like a nimble tiger, skillfully shuttling through obstacles, and in a blink of an eye, she disappeared. ]

["Do you want to follow?" ]

[Medea is a little bit of a germaphobe. She doesn't want to go into the forest, fearing that her clothes will get dirty. ]

["No, let's go from above!" ]

[You patted Duogo gently, and the white wolf understood. It howled to the sky, controlled the strong wind, and ran wildly in the direction of Duo Kingdom. ]

[When Atalanta thought she had gotten rid of you and came to the Kingdom of Calydon alone, she found that the three of you and the wolf had been waiting at the city gate for a long time. ]

[Looking at the surprise flashing in the cat-eared lady's eyes, you smiled and explained: "We flew here."]

[Flew here?]

[No wonder you are faster than me...

[After getting the answer, Atalanta breathed a sigh of relief. ]

[Running speed is her strength that she is proud of. If she is defeated by others in this aspect, it will still make her uncomfortable. ]

Whether Atalanta accepts it or not, Alex has already arrived in the Kingdom of Calydon to participate in this hunting activity.

The moment Oeneus, the king of Calydon, saw him, he immediately burst into tears and put himself in the position of the victim in an attempt to win Alex sympathy.

However, this trick did not work on Alex at all.

He knew the truth.

"Your Majesty, the King, do you know whose fault it is that you forgot about Her Majesty Artemis, the goddess of hunting, during the harvest season?"

Alex stared at Oeneus' tearful eyes, made him lower his head, and then said indifferently: "In my opinion, Her Majesty Artemis has been tolerant enough. Your kingdom prospers because of the goddess' blessing. She has given you countless beasts in the forest. And how do you repay the goddess?"

"↑.....

Oeneus was choked by Alex and couldn't speak for a long time. He finally understood that this "flawless person" came to defend Artemis!

But he didn't dare to offend Alex, so he had to admit his mistake and beg Alex to help him defeat the rebellious wild boar.

Alex shook his head and didn't agree , because the protagonist this time is not him.

But Atalanta.

It is most reasonable for the followers of Artemis to kill the wild boar that the goddess herself dropped.

This means that the goddess has forgiven the disrespect of the Kingdom of Calydon, otherwise the king would not be able to sleep in the future.

In fact, it is true.

After hearing that Atalanta is a follower of Artemis, Oeneus' enthusiasm for her has obviously increased a lot.

He gave gold and fine wine, and he was so humble that he didn't look like a king, but more like a dog who pursued the goddess.

Moreover, he also vigorously spread the fact that the goddess specially sent followers to fight against the wild boar of Calydon.

Stabilized the public opinion within the kingdom [and stabilized his own position. [014501225 Feilu 124590260]

In this regard , Atalanta just pretended not to see it.

After defeating the Calydonian boar, he left alone.

But what she didn't know was that because Oeneus needed to prove that Artemis had forgiven his mistakes, he exaggerated Atalanta's achievements.

In just a few days, every kingdom in this land heard about the story and reputation of this female hunter.

Among them was Atalanta's biological father.

———— King of the Kingdom of Arcadia, Iasos.

This ruthless king, because his wife Clymene gave birth to a daughter instead of a son.

He cruelly threw Atalanta, who was still a baby, into the mountains. If it hadn't been discovered by Artemis' sacred beast, the she-bear,

I'm afraid that the young Atalanta would have become meat in the mouths of wild beasts.

Because During this experience, Atalanta had an extremely strong sympathy for children and was extremely disgusted with men.

She had made a vow to Artemis that she would believe in Artemis, one of the three virgin goddesses, for her whole life and keep her purity.

But Iasus obviously didn't care about Atalanta's choice.

After learning that his abandoned daughter had achieved such amazing success and had become a very good hunter.

He immediately sent someone to find Atalanta.

Although Atalanta had no good feelings for her father, as a hero, she was also a believer of Artemis.

She couldn't refuse her biological father's request.

She was worried that this would bring shame to the god she believed in.

She reluctantly agreed to Iasus's request and followed the people who were looking for her back to her hometown, the Kingdom of Arcadia.

Iasus wanted Atalanta to get married and give birth to a legitimate heir to his kingdom.

So, after symbolically asking for Atalanta's opinion, they decided to decide Atalanta's future husband by running!

Only those who beat Atalanta could marry this beautiful female hunter.

And the loser would be killed on the spot!

Atalanta wanted to use this method to cut off the thoughts of those who didn't know how high the sky was and how deep the earth was.

But unexpectedly, many people still signed up enthusiastically, wanting to gain both fame and fortune and get the beauty home.

The result is needless to say, they all died in Atalanta's hands, paying the price for their greed.

Until a young man named Melanion appeared.

At the same time, Alex also arrived in Arcadia.

This time, he came alone.

[Melanion fell in love with this beautiful, lonely, wild female hunter at first sight when he saw Atalanta. ]

[However, he also knew that he could not outrun Atalanta at all, and he fell into distress for this. ]

[In this era, Atalanta is the fastest hero on earth! Perhaps only Hercules, a real monster, can beat her. ]

[And Hercules obviously will not participate in this race, which means Atalanta is invincible. ]

[Of course, the prerequisite for this invincibility is...

[The gods will not interfere! ]

[Melanion obviously also understood this truth, so he went to seek help from Aphrodite, the goddess of love. ]

["Great Aphrodite, I fell in love with a girl, but she didn't have me in her eyes. What should I do? Your loyal believer prays here, hoping that you can give me the right guidance!" ]

[Kneeling under the statue of the goddess in the temple, Melanion prayed with a painful heart, longing for a solution to his distress. ]

[Aphrodite, the goddess of love, heard his plea and threw down three golden apples. ]

["Take these three golden apples, and when you are surpassed by Atalanta, take one out...

[No one can resist the temptation of golden apples. As long as you see them, you will definitely pick them up.]

[When Atalanta picks up the golden apples, Melanion will take the opportunity to surpass her.]

[This method is not very glorious, but it is the only way to defeat Atalanta.]

["Thank you, great Aphrodite!"]

[Picking up the three golden apples on the ground, Melanion's eyes flickered.]

[As a hero, he also knew that what he was going to do was very despicable and not a fair means.]

[But what else can he do?]

[In order to defeat Atalanta and marry the woman he loves, he can only do this!]

[""]

[On one side is the beloved woman, on the other side is the hero . ]

[Kneeling under the statue of the goddess, Melanion wavered. ]

[Finally, he chose to put the three golden apples in his arms. ]

[At this moment, you also came to the Kingdom of Arcadia. After reporting your name, you easily met Atalanta who was bored in the deep palace. ]

[Iasus welcomed your arrival. ]

[In fact, in his opinion, you are one of the best candidates for a husband. ]

[Besides you, only Hercules is left. ]

[But Hercules didn't come, and Iasus had no choice. ]

[After all, he couldn't beg him to come, right? ]

[As a king, Iasus had to save some face. ]

[What's more, Hercules had been married for a long time and loved his wife very much, so he naturally wouldn't have any thoughts about Atalanta. ]

[He is not a stallion like Zeus and Poseidon. ]

[Whenever he sees a beautiful woman, regardless of whether she is a man or a woman, he wants to possess her immediately. ]

[Therefore, in Iasus's expectation, you are the best candidate for a husband!]

[He hopes that you and Atalanta will have a child soon. ]

[Of course, he will not put on airs with you, and he agreed to your request to see Atalanta on the spot. ]

["Zoe?"]

[Seeing you coming, Atalanta's expressionless face rarely showed a trace of joy. ]

[She has few friends she recognizes, and you are one of them. ]

[In addition, she has encountered too many bad things during this period, and seeing her friends coming is also a kind of comfort. ]

[Atalanta invites you to sit down, and then asks in a somewhat strange way: "Why are you the only one here? Where are Anna, Togo, and the witch who sticks to you all day? Didn't they come?"]

"Why did they come?"

Looking at Atalanta, who was rarely dressed in a skirt, Alex teased: "I'm here to compete with you, what are they doing? Are they here to cheer for me?"

"Don't be ridiculous, Zoe."

Knowing that Alex had no idea about her, Atalanta said helplessly: "If you also want to participate in the competition, be prepared to be killed by me! I won't show mercy to you just because we are friends!"

"You are too heartless, aren't you? It's rare that I'm going to help you."

"Help me? How can 2.6 help me?"

Sure enough, hearing this, Atalanta became interested.

On the Argo, Jason often boasted about Alex wisdom.

Atalanta had also heard about it.

She was looking forward to Alex coming up with a good idea to get out of this situation as soon as possible and solve the current trouble.

She had vowed to be a virgin for life and had no idea about men and marriage.

It was impossible for her to listen to Iasus and marry anyone and have children.

"It's very simple, can't we just get married?"

Alex pointed at himself and said with a smile: "Then I will ask Her Majesty Artemis for an oracle, so that you must remain a virgin and dissolve our marriage. In this way,

all the problems will be solved!"

It seems that... [014501225 Faloo 124590260]

OK?

Atalanta thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with Alex plan.

The only difficulty was how to get the oracle from Artemis.

And

"With just you, can you beat me?"

Atalanta chuckled, but it was not that she looked down on Alex.

That was the fact.

If they were to fight head-on, she would not be able to beat Alex who was holding a flaming spear.

But when it comes to running...

Atalanta confidently said that even if all the Alex were tied together, they would not be able to beat her!

"Don't worry about it, I have my own way."

Unable to help rolling his eyes at the female hunter in front of him, Alex waved his hand, not wanting to continue this topic that hurt his self-esteem.

So, these heroes of the Age of Gods are all freaks!

How can normal humans run as fast as F1 cars!

It's not me who is abnormal, it's you!
