I seriously doubt there is something wrong with my Chaldea

The old man's answer was very frank. He agreed with Jason's request, but he still needed help. Otherwise, those people who had been helped by Phineus would not be so anxious to bring them to Phineus. around.

"Well...it's a matter of course, Edmund, you go to the street and buy something to eat."

Jason sent Edmund to buy food in the streets, because it was said that Phineus was to eat the edible delicacies, and Harpies would either eat them up or spoil them.

He intends to use this to lure the harpy divine bird, and only in this way can it be easily resolved.

While Phineus was waiting, he felt a blue fruit from his body, he wiped it, and then swallowed it mouthful.

"this is……"

Lixiang was a little surprised. It was a fruit he had picked at Mount Pelion. It was extremely sour and hard to swallow when it was not ripe, but it became sweet and refreshing after it matured, but now Phineus is eating it. That's it.

But Phineus can't eat any food that can be eaten... Then this...

"It's not an easy thing to swallow, boy."

Phineus followed the reputation, he smiled, but was stunned for a moment, he found that Lixiang seemed to know the fruit in his hand.

"You rely on this every day?!"

Li Xiang couldn't help asking, he had eaten this immature green fruit, it was extremely sour and hard to swallow, he just took a bite and would never touch this kind of thing for the rest of his life, but the old man in front of him was able to eat it as usual go down.

He could not help but feel the surprise and shock, as well as the displeasure and anger towards the gods of Olympus slowly rising in his heart.

"This is much better than the food spoiled by Harpies."

Phineus smiled kindly, "This is the punishment I deserve. I was not punished just for my contempt, but also for them, for the people in Thrace who were not happy. , and now I am satisfied."

"For the people of Thrace?"

Lixiang was stunned for a moment, and then he roughly guessed the meaning of Phineus' words.

Jason turned his head and glanced at Lixiang, but he didn't say anything, and continued to wait silently.

The heroes didn't interrupt. Although none of them moved, they all listened to the old man's narration in silence.

"I am the king of Thrace . . . and I was."

Phineus followed the voice and looked at the young man in front of him who couldn't help asking him a question, nodded, and then replied: "Then I should give everything I have for this country and the people here, this little effort It's nothing to me at all."

"I have seen everything in this city-state since I was young, whether it is good or evil, and I want to make it a little better... This is probably my own original wish as a king. "

"But good things are not easy to keep, and evil things are also hard to get rid of. I am just an ordinary mortal, and I don't have that much power to change all at once. I can only do my best and do what I can. things that arrived."

Phineus calmly recounted what he had been doing all along, what he had known and taken for granted.

The heroes were silent. When Phineus said these words, it was not difficult for them to guess what Phineus meant by "what he can do".

For Thrace and the people here...

Then the punishment that can be done is also...

"Is it worth it for you to do such a thing?"

Matthew couldn't help asking: "For the people of Thrace, you have become like this..."

Although the heroes were silent, their eyes silently expressed their intention to seek answers from Phineus just like Matthew.

"...Since it has been put into action, then all the propositions of whether it is worthwhile or not are meaningless? After all, the answer you really want has already appeared."

Phineus turned his head to look at the girl again, and said meaningfully.

"I want to do something, I want to change something, I want to make everything I see better... This simple wish is my prayer, and I will combine this beauty with all my efforts. All left here in the future, this is my last wish."

"Choose...the answer...?"

Mash still couldn't understand it now, but Lixiang frowned deeply.

... Now, do I really have this qualification, this ability to choose something...?

"Well... If I make a choice, then you will see the answer now, right? Even if it is only a small change... After witnessing many good and bad things, I am still willing to pay for the short-lived beauty And give everything, for the people here."

Phineus was calm but determined, his words made people fall into contemplation, and he himself showed a smile on his wrinkled face when he saw the contemplative expressions gradually appear on the faces of these people who bear the name of heroes.

"And when it comes to the price, it's really nothing. What I lost was only a few short decades, the light in front of my eyes, but my ears can still hear voices, and my mouth can continue to speak. His life is not over yet."

"And now, as I prophesied, the heroes who can save me have appeared before me, and I can get rid of the punishment of the Harpies... I can still save Thrace in the end." Write down what I can leave behind."

"........."

Phineus seemed very optimistic, the punishment from the gods seemed to be just a drizzle in his mouth, but everyone present knew that if someone else suffered the same punishment as Phineus, there might be no way at all survive.

The youth that passed away at the snap of the fingers, lost the light in front of his eyes, and couldn't even eat ordinary food every day, but could only eat this green fruit that was so sour that it was hard to swallow.

But Phineus endured it, and there was still a smile on his face. Although his body was weak, his spirit was still vigorous.

"came back!"

Edmund brought the food bought from the street back to the house, and Lixiang opened his eyes silently, the brilliance of the ancient runes looming.

"Then, Phineus, please eat."

Jason took the food, and in order to prevent Harpies from coming too suddenly, he changed hands for him. He took the old man's hand and put the food in his hand.

"Wow—!"

Suddenly, there was a sharp and ear-piercing scream from outside the door. Two divine birds, probably bigger than eagles, with the body of a raptor and the head of a woman, broke into the room like lightning. Although the heroes I had been prepared for a long time, but faced with the lightning-like speed of the evil bird, I was still a little unexpected. Some people stretched out their hands to grab them, but they all missed.

【clock up】

In the almost completely still room, Lixiang suddenly stretched out his hands, grabbed the ankles of the two evil birds, and threw them out of the door.

Originally, he was thinking of getting rid of these two evil birds that were purely for disgusting people, but Li Xiang suddenly noticed that he seemed to be able to drive Luen more easily. Oia's throbbing sensation when he recovered reminded him of the scene where he was once controlled by Theia.

In a moment of fear, Lixiang missed the best time to deal with these two evil birds directly. In just a moment, the heroes suddenly found that Lixiang had appeared at the door.

"Karais, Zetes, I leave these two evil birds to you to deal with."

Li Xiang didn't want to see this kind of monster with a woman's head, a bird's beak, and a bird's body again, so she turned her head to make way for the two Boreas brothers who were closest to the door.

"Okay! Then leave it to us!"

The two Boreas brothers with wings on their backs were not displeased by Lixiang's dispatch. After all, they could be regarded as famous monsters in front of them. If they killed a head, they would be counted as their own. It was too late for the two of them to Xie Lixiang.

The two harpies were taken aback, but they had never encountered such a situation when they came out. Seeing that the situation was not good, they immediately flapped their wings and flew towards the sea, escaping, and Boreas followed closely behind. Immediately after.

The two evil birds were driven away in this way, and Jason said to Phineus who was holding the food in a daze, "Okay, Harpies have been driven away, and you are also free, eat quickly. "

Phineus was stunned for a while, then brought the food to his mouth and took a bite.

He didn't know how long it had been since he had eaten such a delicacy. The sour fruit forced his tongue, which seemed to have numb all the taste nerves, to be activated by the unspeakable sweetness. It can be said that this was the best food he had ever eaten in his life. thing.

The old man mechanically took two bites, and then slowly gobbled it up. Some turbid tears could not help but flow down his eyes that he could no longer open, which made people feel sad.

Thankfully it's all over... hopefully.

"Heroes of the Argonauts, thank you for freeing me from this pain. In return, I will tell you what I know and what happened next."

Phineus' emotions gradually calmed down, and he sat beside Jason, planning to start telling the heroes what they would encounter next.

But at this moment, a very low cry suddenly came from the coast, and then spread rapidly towards the distance like ripples.

"Cuckoo-"

The white owl was restless on Lixiang's shoulder, as if it felt something bad.

"what is that?"

Edmund couldn't help asking.

Phineus was stunned, and after a while, he spoke slowly.

"...they are monsters from Gaia... they are what the gods say, monsters of the earth..."

"...Is it the same monster as the big octopus I encountered in the sea before... Really troublesome."

Jason frowned. He already felt something was wrong. It was not the first time he had heard such intermittent words. His intuition as a hero and leader made him gradually realize that this matter seemed to be beyond himself. Think so simple.

"Idas, go get everyone back right away, maybe we will inevitably have an encounter here."

Jason stood up, and just as he walked out the door, an unusually huge shadow suddenly blocked the sunlight at this moment.

The huge creature with a height of 70 meters seems unreasonable at all. The huge humanoid upper body is connected with the octopus-like arm-foot body, and the rock-like carapace covers the connection between the two. It's as simple as glued together by a poor creator.

It wriggled its arms and legs and crawled across the harbor, and the houses were crushed, and the place it crawled left behind a slime with a strong smell of the sea.

Its target is obviously not here, but even if it just passed by, this huge monster caused a commotion in an instant.

"—!"

Lixiang's heart tightened, and he subconsciously ran out of the old house to do something, but the fear of his explosive growth that had sprouted deep in his heart made him hesitate for a moment.

I - what the hell -

"——Help me! Help me!"

Suddenly, people shouted in the street full of fear and despair.

The natural disaster came only in an instant, and this huge monster landed on the land of Thrace along the harbor. In the ruins and destruction, people only had sorrow and despair.

Lixiang looked at those people whose faces were full of despair. The bland happiness they once had had long since disappeared. The collapse of their houses made their fragile bodies unbearable, and the blood slowly flowed down from their bodies along the wounds.

Some people who had no time to escape were crushed under the rubble—a blood-stained child was silently looking at Lixiang who was standing still.

Even if it was just for a moment, the disaster caused by this monster is no longer acceptable to human beings.

"what----!"

Lixiang opened his eyes wide, and drew the longbow again.

Bang!

At the same time as the deafening explosion sounded, fireballs and black smoke also rose from the body of this huge monster.

A small arrow was infused with a huge amount of true ether energy, and then turned into a meteor, piercing through the monster's body.

A painful expression appeared on the humanoid face of the huge monster. A small hole pierced through the monster's body. The scorching light directly burned through the monster's flesh and blood, making two connected small holes, one on the chest and the other on the side. on the back.

Stimulated by the pain, the monster roared. It opened its webbed arms, and the light blue light like a cannonball shot out instantly as if it had locked on Lixiang.

This kind of attacking Lixiang who was almost in front of his eyes did not need to blink. He jumped onto the ruins of a house next to him, and the light around him followed one after another. At the same time as the shock wave spread from behind him, Lixiang He drew the dark red bow in his hand again.

Bang!

At the same time as the explosion sounded, three arrows flew into the air.

The half-human monster narrowed its eyes, a giant bubble covering it.

The fire was flying, but the bubble still existed, and the arrow didn't hurt the monster at all this time.

Although the second round of attack was blocked, Li Xiang still performed with ease, a broken shell, wouldn't it open with a broken window hammer?

The light blue light drew an arc in mid-air, and greeted Lixiang from all directions.

【clock up】

Li Xiang easily dodged those missiles flying around in the sky with their tails dragging but remained motionless, and a dazzling golden light appeared in his hand.

boom----

The sharp and ear-piercing sound made his super-accelerated time and the monster's bubble disappear like a bubble, and he threw the spear of light casually, so he couldn't get close to this monster.

Lixiang drew the bow, this time aiming at the arms and legs protected by the carapace below the monster's waist.

But the tortoise shell obviously couldn't protect the monster.
