When Aeetes confessed that the existence of the Golden Fleece was involved in his life through the oracle, the negotiations became difficult.

For Jason, obtaining the Golden Fleece meant killing Aeetes.

Taking the life of a completely unrelated person in order to regain his throne is not something worthy of praise, even for a person like Jason who has all kinds of wildness in his heart.

Therefore, if Aeetes 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 seek benefits by murdering innocent people, how can they be called heroes?

But even so, he still has something to say

"Dear King Aeetes, please believe that I have no intention of killing you, because what brought me to the island of Colchis was not only the desire for the throne, but also the decree of the gods. It was the gods. The revelation made my uncle give me this task. It was also with the help of the gods that I obtained the Argonaut to go to sea. Because of this, I believe that obtaining the Golden Fleece is an act approved by the gods. You say that the Golden Fleece is related to your life, but how could the gods want to take your life? So there must be some misunderstanding in this."

Then, Jason introduced his companions to Aeetes. Many of them have the blood of gods. While the sons of gods have extraordinary backgrounds, their actions are mostly directed by gods. So many of them have the blood of gods. The sons of God gathered together and joined Jason's expedition, which naturally indirectly explained some problems.

The two sides reached a deadlock.

Aeetes heard Jason mention that he also had gods from the Olympian gods. However, he knew that as the son of the previous generation of Sun God and Ocean Goddess, although Aeetes was the son of God, he was not a person blessed by the Olympian gods.

On the contrary, if the Olympian gods would Aeetes absolutely believed that he was a thorn in his side.

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

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

Because even if the magic god system protects him, the Olympus gods are nominally the rulers of this world.

According to the magic god system and the Olympus god system In charge of the division of domains, the Magical God System is in charge of the magic network and mages, but the mortal and mortal kingdoms still belong to the jurisdiction of the Olympian gods. Even Aeetes' parents belonged to Olympus before they completely broke up. Under the command of the Pace gods.

There are some words that any mage can say freely, but he cannot say them.

Otherwise, it will even hurt his parents.

Looking at Jason in front of him, Aeetes is filled with emotions.

Sometimes, He really envies those mages. Under the protection of the powerful god of mages, they are truly free. People like him, although they have ordinary wealth and power, are often unable to help themselves, for the sake of more mortals. He was worried about things that were out of his reach.

At the same time, he was also keenly aware that the first expedition of these Greek heroes before him might not be a simple so-called mortal prince seeking to regain the throne.

Behind them, there might be something else. The gods’ plan.

The Golden Fleece and his life are in the gods’ plan.

And what is the real purpose of the gods?

It is to attack him and his parents, to attack the gods who once ruled the Greek god realm, to attack those who The remnants of the previous dynasty?

Or do you have a deeper idea, is it to point the sword at the real owner of this island and the magic system that protects him?

Aeetes couldn't see through it, couldn't figure it out.

But he understood that if these heroes in front of him If they really come according to the will of the gods, then as the king, he must not kill them for no reason.

Otherwise, he will put the handle into the hands of the Olympus gods.

But he directly refused to take it away. Neither can the Golden Fleece.

Because the other party mentioned the oracle, if he sternly refused, wouldn't it be a violation of the oracle?

After thinking about it, Aeetes could only think of one way.

That is to delay.

Postpone the decision. When it comes time to make a decision, give yourself more time to think, communicate with the opinions of Father and Mother God, and even find opportunities to discuss with people from Mystra Academy - after all, he can't offend the Olympus gods, and they can't offend the Mystics. Terra Academy is not afraid of them.

Thinking of this, his mood relaxed, and he said to Jason in front of him

"Since you also have oracles from the gods of Olympus, then naturally I cannot easily disobey the instructions of the gods. But the oracle I received also exists, so I need some time to think and decide how to solve this problem. In this case, can you accept it?"

Hearing Aeetes' reply, Jason was relieved. It's good that he didn't refuse.

Although on this journey, Jason did receive the order from the gods, and he also got the goddess Athena to build the Argonauts. He asked for help, but did the gods really expressly tell him to seize the Golden Fleece? He did not get a definite answer.

In order to convince Aeetes and refute his words about the oracle, Jason could only use a certain method to persuade Aeetes. He used some vague words to hint that Aeetes himself also had an oracle, and used the oracle to suppress the oracle.

And involving the crew members who had the identity of the sons of gods was also a strategy for him to use the power of the tiger to suppress others.

Obviously this strategy has finally worked.

At least Aeetes no longer refuses strictly.

In his opinion, as long as the other party is still willing to communicate, then the two sides can talk.

He can lure Aeetes with benefits. If he can By becoming the king of Thessaly, there are naturally many ways to compensate Aeetes, and the power of he and his companions as Argonauts can also be used by Aeetes.

In short, there is a glimmer of hope if the other party does not refuse.

So Thinking about it, Jason nodded cheerfully:"Of course, Your Majesty Aeetes, it is natural for a wise man to think carefully before acting, but when will we get an answer? After all, we have come a long way. Although the Kingdom of Colchis is very beautiful, we cannot stay here for a long time."

"So, how about tonight?"Aeetes thought for a while and then made a decision,"I would like to ask you to leave temporarily, return to the ship, and gather your companions. Tonight, I will hold a banquet to welcome all distinguished guests. At the banquet, I will announce my decision in public. What do you think?"

Jason naturally wouldn't say anything against it.

For him, an afternoon is not too long._
