That's right, it's numbness.
Even when Aethes came up to announce to them that they had passed the test and could go to the holy forest to take the Golden Fleece, they did not react too excitedly.
Such a reaction is not abnormal.
After all, in order to pass this test, they sacrificed too much.
Originally, because of the anger of the Amazons, the Argonauts died from more than 50 people to only more than 30 people.
This sacrifice caused them to suffer a major blow.
If it were not for the secret encouragement and help of the gods, maybe they would return to Greece and end this journey.
But now in Colkis, they have been hit hard again.
The Argonauts of more than 30 people are now only in their early twenties.
This number is already less than half of the original set.
In other words, for the goal of the Golden Fleece, most of them died in a foreign country.
Moreover, the remaining twenty-odd heroes don't know if they can get the Golden Fleece or if they can all return home safely.
Because they all know that the real test of their goal of getting the Golden Fleece has not yet begun.
There is a dragon in the Holy Forest of Colkis that guards the Golden Fleece day and night. They want to get the Golden Fleece, and they must first fix the dragon.
Although Ye Ting assured them that Medea fell in love with him, so he stood on the side of the Argonauts and would be responsible for dragging the dragon for them tomorrow.
But no one can guarantee that the accident will happen.
after all.
That's a dragon.
As long as there is an accident with Medea, if you want to take the golden fleece from the dragon's hand, it is destined that there will be no small sacrifice among them.
Jason even pessimistically believes that whether the Argonauts can eventually return to their hometown in double digits is a question.
The horror of the dragon is not comparable to a "sacred cow" or a "dragon tooth soldier".
Today Jason is already extremely regretful, he regrets that he did not figure out everything and pulled people around, organizing this Argonaut trip.
If he knew that Argonaut's trip would provoke the goddess of magic and the Academy of Mystral that he had never heard of before, he would never do it.
Now he has thoroughly understood that whether it is the "sacred cow" of the first test or the "Dragon Tooth Soldier" of the second test, it is actually the handwriting of the Mystral Academy and the Goddess Hecate.
Although the king of the Kingdom of Colchis is the son of god, are there still many kingdoms dominated by the son of **** in Greece?
The Korkis kingdom in a small area, its strength and heritage is at most similar to the various kingdoms in Greece.
If there is only one Korkis kingdom, it is absolutely impossible to put out such powerful trump cards as "Sacred Bull" and "Dragon Tooth Soldier" to test them, the most elite heroes in Greece.
However, now it is too late to know all this.
Originally, he felt that this should not be continued, and that his companions should not continue to sacrifice because of his ambition.
But everything can no longer be stopped by his will.
For all this, more than 30 of the Argonauts have sacrificed. If the remaining people cannot achieve their common goal, then all the previous sacrifices will be in vain?
And those heroes who sacrificed will also be like a joke.
So uphold the will of the victims, they must walk to the dark one by one.
At this time, Jason's heart has been swallowed by endless guilt.
He didn't understand why he, them, Argonauts, on earth came to the point where they are today.
Is it because of your own ambition?
Is it because of the oracles of the gods?
Is it because you don't know what you can do?
In the end, Jason attributed all this to the play of fate.
It was the fate of impermanence that allowed him to be born as the son of Esson, the king of Thesali, but it made Perias squeeze Esson's throne.
It was the impermanence of fate that allowed him to learn the skills of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting from Chiron, the "master of heroes", but it took away his other more important talents.
It was the impermanence of destiny that gave him an order, and the crowd responded, gathering the brilliance of fifty Argonauts, but it caused him to lose troops and soldiers along the way, and finally fell into the sadness of most of the casualties of his companions.
Yes, he thinks so.
Today Jason is still lamenting the impermanence of fate and its manipulation of him.
Everything is a matter of destiny.
But soon, he would not think so.
Item 0775
Early the next morning, everyone did not look for Aethes, but went directly to the holy forest of Colchis.
The holy forest was just an ordinary forest from the outside, but as everyone entered the holy forest, they immediately felt a sense of relaxation and joy.
As if the whole forest was full of vitality, the heroes who entered here felt that they were relieved a lot, even the air they breathed was sweet.
In fact, all of this stems from the power of spiritual veins.
The Holy Forest of Colchis is the "Forbidden Forest" of Mystral Academy, and the powerful and exaggerated spiritual vein on Colchis Island is located nearby.
This is why the dragon is willing to live here.
From the beginning, it was not the dragon staying here to protect the golden fleece, but the dragon staying here, and Eetes asked it to protect the golden fleece.
Walking into the holy forest and approaching the center of the forest, the heroes suddenly realized that the closer to the center of the forest, the more the morning wind gives them a strange feeling of pressure and danger, as if there is a feeling in the center of the forest. The huge and terrifying existence is constantly putting pressure on them.
How is this going?
When everyone thought about it, they realized that it was probably because of the dragon.
According to legend, the dragon, as the top existence of the fantasy species, has a special ability called Longwei. This is a powerful shocking method. It is a kind of level suppression of low-level creatures by dragons at higher levels. It is somewhat similar to the natural suppression of mortals by the gods.
Weak creatures will directly enter a collapsed state under the influence of Dragon Power. Powerful creatures will also be shocked in their hearts.
And this ability is extremely effective for other scaly creatures, and the dragon power released by the weakest whelp can also scare away the strongest Yalong.
