Xingyue Greece, I Really Don't Want to Be a Hero! Chapter 143
But then it was discovered that it was not.
Because compared to Apollo, the god of light, this god who appeared is obviously much stronger.
And Jason doesn't know him.
I saw that his whole body was emitting a scorching heat, which made Jason even feel as if he was looking directly at the sun when he was looking at him. His eyes couldn't bear it, so he closed his eyes and turned his head away.
"Sun God Helios, why are you here?"
Then Artemis was slightly surprised, and helped Jason answer the doubts in his heart.
That's right, the god who came here was named Helios, the sun god in Greek mythology, Helios who represented the sun!
Helios was the son of the Titan god Hyperion and Theia.
Legend has it that he gallops in the sky every day on a sun chariot pulled by four fire horses, from east to west, rising in the morning and setting in the evening, making light shine all over the world.
In later generations, he was often confused with Apollo, the god of light.
The reason for this situation is that there is such a legendary story in the stories handed down in later generations.
About hundreds of years from now, one day at the meeting of the gods, when Zeus asked Apollo what he wanted, Apollo thought of Artemis, who had the priesthood of the moon god, and replied that he wanted to inherit the sun god. job.
And because Helios has been the sun god for so long that Zeus forgot, he gave this priesthood to Apollo.
Whether Apollo will inherit the position of the sun god in the future is still unclear.
But in the current world, it is indeed the tall and burly Helios in purple robes who holds the position of the sun god.
"The moon god Artemis, I came here because I brought the great god king Zeus with me." Helios replied to Artemis: "Zeus asked me to tell you that he has something important to ask you. Let you hurry back to Mount Olympus."
"Godfather?" Artemis was taken aback, "Now?"
Artemis said, turning his head to look at Jason.
"Yes, now...and immediately."
Helios emphasized.
"this......"
Artemis hesitated for a while, looked at Helios and said, "Then can you wait for me for a while, I will hide this child first, and then go to God the Father."
Come on, Goddess Artemis, you still won't let me go after this!
"Goddess Artemis can't do this!"
Immediately after meeting, Jason said to Artemis with a serious face: "The great Lord Helios has said so, and the great god-king Zeus must have something very important for you.
You'd better go see God King Zeus as soon as possible! "
"I don't!"
Artemis refused straight away, pouted and said to Jason: "Hide you and I'll go, or I'll miss this opportunity, and I won't be able to catch you next time!"
At this moment, Jason felt a little desperate in his heart.
Goddess Artemis, you said, what do you like about me, can I change it, can I change it? !
And Teacher Hecate, have you really abandoned me? If you don't show up, your lovely student might never see you again!
Fortunately, at this time, this Helios who met for the first time was very powerful.
He stretched out his hand, stopped Artemis who was about to take Jason away, and said with a smile: "Goddess Artemis can't, you can't take this child away now."
"Why?" Artemis stared at Helios in dissatisfaction, and said, "Is this also the order of God the Father?!"
"Hmm...well." Helios thought for a while and said, "Actually, God King Zeus asked me to find this boy. I need his help with something."
As he spoke, Helios raised his head and looked in the direction of the sky and the sun, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Help, help for what?" Artemis looked at Helios suspiciously.
Helios looked like Artemis, and if you don't tell me why, I won't let Jason's look go.
After hesitating for a while, he sighed softly: "I have a lovely child named Phaethon, he came to find me two days ago, and asked me to grant him a wish, and I agreed without even thinking about it.
In the end, his wish was to drive my sun car alone without the help of the gods, but he is just a human being! "
"Drive your sun car?" Artemis was stunned, and said in surprise: "And the gods can't help, a human?
Oh my god, the flames of the sun chariot will burn him to nothing, that is simply not something a human being can do, how could you promise him! "
"I also want to repent." Helios smiled bitterly and said, "But I have promised my lovely child, and I have sworn to the river of oath in the underworld, so there is no way to stop this matter.
But just when I was in despair, the great God King Zeus told me, if there is any hero in this world who can save my poor child..."
Saying that, Helios looked at Jason.
Artemis also looked at Jason at this moment.
"Son, are you willing to save me, my poor son?"
Helios looked at Jason with expectant eyes.
Facing the gaze of Helios, as if he had been severely touched in his heart, Jason showed an extremely serious expression, a serious expression, and said firmly to Helios: "The great sun god Helios Lord Lios, it is my great honor to be able to help you. In my heart, there is no reason to refuse at all!
So don't worry, Mr. Helios, I, Jason, have a duty to do this! "

PS: Today's first chapter
Chapter 161 Riding the Sun Chariot! (3k)
At this moment, Jason has a righteous face.
It is my duty to help God, it is none other than me, Jason!
Jason's answer is not a lie, and Jason's soul has been washed by the inextinguishable flame of the river Styx, and is protected by the power of Hades, the king of Hades.
So at this moment, looking at Jason, the moon god Artemis and the sun god Helios were all moved.
"That's it... then forget it."
Artemis let go of Jason with great regret, fondled Jason's face reluctantly, and said: "Next time, little Jason, you have to wait for me, next time I will come to play with you, Hide you."
Facing Artemis with a regretful face, Jason did not answer, and lowered his head.
There was neither objection nor approval.
One of Jason's rules of survival, in the face of the gods, if there is no need, never make a promise easily!
Because even if it is a casual remark, the gods are extremely likely to take it seriously.
The gods can tell a lie, but they can't tell if you're bragging.
Therefore, at this moment, if Jason responds, Artemis will inevitably find an opportunity to hide Jason to accompany her.
But if he refuted it, it would obviously anger Artemis again.
So the best way is to change the subject, pretend you didn't hear it, etc.
Note, however, that there must be a degree of control here.
Otherwise, there is a great possibility that the gods will regard it as arrogance, and then the angry gods will still punish them.
The reluctant Artemis left, which made Jason feel relieved.
But Jason, who didn't show it, respectfully came before the sun god Helios.
After what happened just now, Helios, a burly male god, obviously has a certain affection for Jason.
Therefore, he took the initiative to restrain his divine power, so that when Jason came to him and stared at him, he lost the blazing heat as if he was looking directly at the sun.
"Master Helios, the great sun god, may I go with you now?"
"Hmm." Helios nodded lightly, and seeing a trace of hesitation on Jason's face, he asked with concern: "Do you have anything else to do? Son, tomorrow will be me and my son Phaeth." The agreed day."
"It's such a great Lord Helios. In fact, I have a younger sister. Her name is Medea. When the moon god Artemis came to see me yesterday, Tianma took her to avoid it for the time being. return.
I'm concerned for her safety right now, so I'd like to get her settled first, if possible. "
"If this is the case, you don't need to worry, child."
Helios smiled and said: "Because at dawn, when I was riding a sun chariot to illuminate the world, I saw the appearance of Hecate, the goddess of roads, and had a simple conversation with her. .
It was she who pointed out that you are here, and she has already taken that Pegasus horse and my granddaughter to the underworld to wait for you. "
"...Granddaughter?" Jason froze for a moment.
"Aietes, the king of Colchis, he is also my child." Helios stared at Jason in front of him, and patted Jason on the shoulder with a smile, and said with a smile: "And he is It's Medea's father!...You and my granddaughter have become brother and sister, not bad, child, I recognize you!"
At this moment, Jason's expression really seemed a little stunned.
He opened his eyes wide and looked at the burly man Helios in front of him.
And after the astonishment...
Teacher Hecate, you really did it on purpose, you took Medea away and you didn't care about me!
The resentment began to linger in Jason's heart.
As for the fact that Helios is Medea's grandfather, Jason was surprised, but because he always knew that Medea was not a human being, but closer to a nymph fairy.
Jason quickly accepted this identity.
only......
Since I am Medea's brother now, what should I call this man?
Jason always felt that his surrounding relationship seemed to be getting more and more chaotic, and he looked at the sun god Helios in front of him with a little headache.
Immediately Helios, who was very satisfied with Jason, took Jason directly to the sun chariot waiting for Helios.
The next thing waiting for Jason was about the young man named Phaethon and the Sun Chariot.
And this matter, in fact, in Greek mythology, Apollo, the god of light, will succeed the sun god Helios and become one of the versions of the future sun god.
At the same time, it is also the most popular version.
Because of Phaethon's conceit and the favor of Helios, the sun god.
Phaethon drove the sun chariot and rushed out of the gate of the world.
With the appearance of the sun car, the stars disappeared one by one.
The golden sun chariot and the winged Pegasus soared in the blue sky under the driving of Phaethon.
But when Phaethon was so excited about this, and even sang loudly, he didn't know that the 'disaster' on the sun's body was coming because of it.
As a human being, Phaeton, who did not inherit his father's divine power, could not control the sun chariot at all.
So dragging the sun chariot, the four celestial horses in flames all over their bodies neighed, and their scorching breath spewed out sparks in the air, which quickly deviated from the original trajectory.
In addition, Helios swore to the river of oath again, promising Phaethon to drive for a day, and the gods could not help.
In the end, out of control, the Pegasus pulling the sun chariot released its instinct to run, and with the solar chariot and the panicked Phaeton, they ran around the world wantonly.
So the sun, which should have been high in the sky, fell from the sky to the world.
The sun car does not return, and the world ushers in eternal daylight.
The horrible temperature has dried up the grassland, the forest has caught fire, the crops have been burned, and the lake has turned into a desert!
People on the ground either died of freezing or heat, the sky was dark, and the world was filled with countless grievances.
At the same time, this also made it impossible for Zeus to meet the goddess at night. After a period of time, after realizing this, Zeus struck down the divine thunder.
So Phaethon was struck by lightning and fell into the burning sun chariot wheel, disturbing the rotation of the wheel.
In the end, the sun chariot took Phae assimilated into a fireball, fell from the sky, and fell into the vast Elidanus River.
Because Phaethon's whole body was burned by the flames of the sun chariot, his soul was also contaminated by the flames, and even the underworld could not accommodate him.
And because of this, Helios was also condemned by the gods when facing the world that was almost turned into a desert, and eventually lost the priesthood of the sun god.
In the end, Apollo, the god of light, replaced Helios and accepted the priesthood of the sun god.
Hmm... No matter which version, it seems that Apollo, the god of light, will replace Helios as the sun god in the end.
But all in all, due to various reasons, Jason was involved in this matter.
And never once did Jason show such a positive attitude towards this troublesome matter of the god.
After all, it was just a little bit short, and was taken away by Artemis, and I couldn't go back...
