Even if King Aietes couldn't order the mages, his background was worth considering, and he decided that he wasn't someone to deal with.

However, since he had already come to Colchis Island, it would be impossible to say without trying it.

No matter how powerful the power behind Aietes is, they cannot give up halfway as Argonauts.

Otherwise, I would be sorry for so many people who followed him all the way here, and so many companions who sacrificed on the road.

Thinking like this, Jason brought the six people back into their original Greek clothes, and came to the entrance of the palace of Colchis with the scepter of peace.

Under the leadership of the palace servants, they entered the palace.

Compared with the city outside, the palace is another scene.

There are thick palace walls, towering gates and majestic columns, and a protruding stone wall surrounds the entire building.

They crossed the front yard gate and saw a pavilion covered with vines and four ever-flowing fountains, strangely, one of these fountains spewed milk, one spewed wine, and the other spewed sesame oil. , the last spew of water that is warm in winter and cool in summer.

Then there is the inner courtyard, which is full of double doors and luxurious inner rooms, and the colonnades on both sides are also carefully carved.There is also a taller building on each side that intersects the colonnade.

Although the palace scenery here is more gorgeous than the city outside, but it is particularly familiar to them.

Because the style of the palace is obviously Greek, not the European medieval architecture that is unheard of in the city.

This is obviously because Aietes is the Son of God.

The construction of the palace was done entirely by one of its parents, without the influence of the magical pantheon.

They walked from the front yard into the middle yard.The columns on both sides, separated from left and right, lead to many palaces and boulevards.

When Jason and the others walked forward, they saw several independent palaces.

King Aietes and his children lived there.

When the palace maid told King Aietes that the four brothers of Argos had entered the palace with three foreigners, King Aietes and Queen Ideia immediately came to greet the four grandsons and three guests from abroad.

When meeting the Argonauts, Argos and the others once said that their grandfather was a cruel person, which of course was only to intimidate the Argonauts.

In fact, Aietes was warm and kind, so after the golden fleece and golden sheep came to the kingdom of Colchis with Phryxos, Aietes not only adopted Phryxos, but also took his eldest daughter Kalchi. Ober married Phryxos, a demigod hero of noble birth.

Knowing that Jason and others rescued four grandsons on the island of Aretea, and that Jason is also the cousin of the four brothers of Argos, King Aietes invited Jason to join Augeas and Tetra. Ramon entered the banquet hall of the royal palace, and let the servants offer rich wine and food to the noble guests.

When the banquet was about to end, the four Argos brothers told King Aietes what had happened to them, and told King Aietes the intentions of the Argonauts.

"I don't want to hide it from you, grandfather."

Argos whispered in front of Aietes.

"King Pelias took the throne that originally belonged to our cousin Jason, and now Jason must get the Golden Fleece before King Pelias is willing to return the throne to Jason."

Hearing his grandson's words, Aietes couldn't help but laugh angrily.

As a king, he could easily judge the purpose of King Pelias.

King Pelias asked Jason to take the Golden Fleece. His idea was very obvious, that is, to let Jason die in the adventure and no longer threaten his throne.

So Aietes looked at Jason coldly, and couldn't help sneering.

"Young hero! Are you so naive and stupid? Let me tell you the truth, even if I asked you to bring back the Golden Fleece, King Pelias would never have given you the throne. If you were real If you are a hero, you should defeat King Pelias in an upright manner, and take back the throne that originally belonged to you just like King Pelias took the throne from your father Aeson. I have received an oracle once, the oracle told me , my life is with the golden fleece, and if I lose the golden fleece, I shall lose my life. Therefore I will never give the golden fleece to you."

It may not be stupid to have Jason, and he may have ambitions as a hero, but politically, he is still very naive to believe that if the Golden Fleece is retrieved, King Pelias will return the throne to him.

But when he heard Aietes' refusal words, he still stood up and refuted neither humble nor arrogant.

"King Aietes! I am neither naive nor stupid. Pelias is my uncle, and unlike you, I believe he is a man of his word... Even if he is not at ease, as long as I Retrieve the Golden Fleece and let Uncle Pelias know that I am a mighty young hero, and he may change his mind and give me the throne."

"Jason! You want me to lose the Golden Fleece, and my life, just because of what you believe in, that trivial possibility?"

King Aietes asked angrily.

"Do you know that I am in front of you, the son of Helios, the former sun god? In order to take back the throne of Thessaly Kingdom, you have to take away the golden fleece and my life. This is declaring war on me. Jason, I won't kill you now. Tomorrow you gather all the Argonauts and fight with me! As long as you can defeat me and kill me, you can walk on my body and take the golden fleece."

Chapter 0748 Oracle Question

Negotiations began to become difficult when Aietes said that the existence of the Golden Fleece was tied to his own life through the oracle.

For Jason, getting the Golden Fleece meant taking Aietes' life.

Murdering the life of a completely unrelated person in order to regain his throne is not something to be commended even for someone like Jason with all kinds of wild hearts.

Therefore, if Aietes declined his request for such a reason, he would not even be able to rob him.

If the so-called Argonauts are the kind of people who murder innocent people in exchange for benefits, how can they be called heroes?

But even so, he still had something to say.

"Respected King Aietes, please believe that I have no intention of killing your life, because it is not only the desire for the throne, but also the decree of the gods that led me to Colchis Island. God's revelation asked my uncle to give me this task, and it was with the help of the gods that I got the Argo to go to sea. Because of this, I believe that obtaining the golden fleece is an act approved by the gods. You said The Golden Fleece is about your life, but how could the gods want to take your life? So there must be some misunderstanding."

Afterwards, Jason introduced his companions to Aietes. Many of them have the blood of the gods. While the sons of gods have extraordinary backgrounds, most of their behaviors are instructed by the gods. So many sons of gods. Gathered together, they all joined Jason's expedition, and naturally it can also indirectly explain some problems.

The two sides are at an impasse.

Aietes heard Jason mention that he also had oracles from the gods of Olympus, but he knew that, as the son of the previous generation of the sun god and the goddess of the ocean, although Aietes was the son of God, he was not affected by the gods. A person blessed by the gods of Lynpius.

On the contrary, if the Olympian gods would see him as a thorn in the flesh, Aietes absolutely believed it.

He even wanted to reply directly to Jason: "How do you know how the gods wouldn't want to take my life?"

It's a pity that even he can't say such words directly.
