Zongman: People in Chaldea, all the group members are wives

Lin Yi was not stage-frightened. After all, it was not his first time, so he walked to the bow of the boat naturally.

As Orpheus played the harp in his hand, Lin Yi also opened his throat and began to sing.

This time, he sang a song he heard on the road.

It is said that locals often use this song to bid farewell to friends.

Lin Yi followed the local customs and ended his journey with this song.

The singing voice floats over the tranquil sea, and the bright moon climbs to the surface of the sea, casting billions of gentle rays of light.

Fish leap out of the water and birds circle silently.

The world was in complete silence, with only the young man singing passionately.

Atalanta sat at the top of the mast, holding a jug of wine and drinking it all in one gulp.

Bye now.

friends.

The girl whispered in her heart, only to herself.

Chapter 50: Can't we just get married? (Subscribe!)

【Happy times are always short-lived, and after a night of revelry, the prosperity is over. 】

[The heroes have also waited for the time to part. 】

[Jason holds your hand, unwilling to let you go.]

[“Zoe, my best brother, if possible, I really don’t want to be separated from you.”]

[“But I also know that you have your own way to go, and I can’t force you to stay... But I still want to tell you that if one day you are tired and want to find a place to rest, you can come to me.”]

[“My kingdom is always open to you. As long as you come, my glory, my wealth, and everything I have will be shared with you!”]

[These words were spoken with such deep feeling that even you were slightly moved.]

【After spending time together on the Argonaut voyage, you became good friends with Jason, Hercules, and Orpheus.】

【They really don’t want to part with you. 】

[But you also know that after sending you a thousand miles away, we must finally say goodbye. ]

[Everyone has his own life and his own path to walk. When we are together, we may occasionally form a partnership, but when we part, we should also be open-minded. 】

[If we are destined to meet, we will see each other again in the future. ]

[“I’m leaving, you guys have to take care of yourselves. I hope we can still get together for a drink next year!”]

[“Take care, everyone! May your lives be filled with glory like the Argo!”]

[The boy waved goodbye, bringing this legendary journey to an end.]

[The heroes go their separate ways and take different paths. ]

【but.................】

【"Why are you following me?"】

[The cat-eared lady frowned her pretty eyebrows, and the cat ears on both sides of her head twitched slightly, looking like she was very nice to touch.]

【"Didn't Her Majesty Artemis tell you?"】

【"say what?"】

[“She asked me to go to Calydon to hunt the wild boar she left behind.”]

【“Let you go?”】

[“Yes, to be precise, let’s go together!”]

[Hearing this, Atalanta glanced at Anna who was following behind you, Medea who had sneaked in with a shameless attitude, and Togo who was staring at her eagerly.]

[His icy expression slightly loosened, but his mouth was still very hard, keeping people at a distance: "No need, it's just a wild boar, I can do it alone!"]

[“Oh, then you can talk to Her Majesty Artemis yourself. As long as she agrees, I won’t go.”]

【“................”】

[Who doesn’t know that Atalanta is Artemis’s loyal little fan girl? ]

[How could a devout believer possibly refute the oracle issued by God? ]

[You know, when Atalanta was abandoned, Artemis, who was passing by, felt sorry for her, so she found a lactating female bear and raised Atalanta to adulthood.]

[For this cat-eared lady, Artemis is not just a god she believes in. In a sense, she is also one of her mothers.]

【Why is it one of them? 】

[There is also a mother bear and Atalanta's biological mother! ]

[“It’s up to you, as long as you can keep up!”]

[As the best hunter of this era, Atalanta's running speed is unparalleled in the world. Even in the dense jungle, she can still come and go freely. ]

[She was like a nimble tiger, deftly weaving through numerous obstacles, and in the blink of an eye, she disappeared.]

[“Want to follow?”]

[Medea is a bit of a germaphobe, and she doesn't want to go into the forest for fear of getting her clothes dirty.]

[“No, we’ll go from the top!”]

[You patted Togo gently, and the white wolf understood. It howled toward the sky, harnessed the strong wind, and rushed towards the direction of the Kingdom of Calydon.]

[When Atalanta thought she had gotten rid of you and came to the Kingdom of Calydon alone, she discovered that the three of you and the wolf had been waiting at the city gate for a long time.]

[Looking at the surprise in the cat-eared lady's eyes, you smiled and explained: "We flew here."]

【Flying over? 】

[No wonder you are faster than me...]

[After getting the answer, Atalanta breathed a sigh of relief. 】

[She is very proud of her running speed, and it would be very uncomfortable for her if she was defeated by others in this aspect.]

Regardless of whether Atalanta accepts it or not, Lin Yi has already arrived in the Calydonian Kingdom to participate in this hunting activity.

The moment Oeneus, the king of Calydon, saw him, he immediately burst into tears and put himself in the position of the victim in an attempt to win Lin Yi's sympathy.

However, this trick didn't work on Lin Yi at all.

He knows the truth.

"During the harvest season, Artemis, the goddess of hunting, was forgotten. Your Majesty, whose fault is this, King?"

Lin Yi stared into Oeneus' tearful eyes, making him lower his head, and then said indifferently: "In my opinion, Her Majesty Artemis has been tolerant enough. Your kingdom prospers because of the goddess' blessing. She has given you countless beasts in the forest. And how do you repay the goddess?"

“Well…I….”

Oeneus was choked by Lin Yi and was speechless for a long time. He finally understood that this "flawless man" came to stand up for Artemis!

But he didn't dare to offend Lin Yi, so he had to admit his mistake and beg Lin Yi to help him defeat the rebellious wild boar.

Lin Yi shook his head and did not agree, because he was not the protagonist this time.

It was Atalanta.

It would be most reasonable for Artemis's followers to kill the wild boar that was thrown down by the goddess herself.

This means that the goddess has forgiven the Calydonian Kingdom's disrespect, otherwise the king would probably not be able to sleep well in the future.

In fact, it does.

After hearing that Atalanta was a follower of Artemis, Oeneus' enthusiasm for her increased significantly.

He gave gifts of gold and fine wine, but he was so humble that he didn't look like a king. Instead, he looked more like a dog pursuing a goddess.

Moreover, he also vigorously spread the fact that the goddess specially sent her followers to fight against the Calydonian boar.

He stabilized public opinion within the kingdom and also stabilized his own throne.

Atalanta pretended not to see it.

After defeating the Calydonian boar, he left alone.

But what she didn't know was that because Oeneus needed to prove that Artemis had forgiven his mistakes, he exaggerated Atalanta's achievements more and more.

In just a few days, every kingdom in the land had heard the story and reputation of this huntress.

Among them was Atalanta's biological father.

——The King of Arcadia, Iasos.

This ruthless king was angry because his wife Clymene gave birth to a daughter instead of a son.

He cruelly threw the infant Atalanta onto the mountain. If she had not been discovered by Artemis' sacred animal, the she-bear,

I'm afraid that young Atalanta has already become food in the mouths of wild beasts.

Because of this experience, Atalanta developed an unusually strong sympathy for children and an extreme disgust for men.

She once swore a vow to Artemis that she would believe in Artemis, one of the three virgin goddesses, for the rest of her life and preserve her purity.

But Iasus obviously didn't care about Atalanta's choice.

After learning that his abandoned daughter has achieved such amazing success, she has become an excellent hunter.

He immediately sent someone to find Atalanta.

Although Atalanta had no good feelings towards her father, as a hero, she was also a believer of Artemis.

She couldn't refuse her biological father's request.

Worried that this would bring shame to the gods they believe in.

She reluctantly agreed to Iasos' request and followed the people who were looking for her back to her hometown, the Kingdom of Arcadia.

Iasus wanted Atalanta to marry and give birth to a legitimate heir to his kingdom.

So, after symbolically consulting Atalanta's opinion, they decided to decide Atalanta's future husband by running a race!

Only the one who is better than Atalanta can marry this beautiful huntress.

The loser will be killed on the spot!

Atalanta originally wanted to use this method to stop the thoughts of those who were ignorant of the immensity of the world.

However, many people still signed up enthusiastically, hoping to gain fame and fortune and win the beauty.

Needless to say, they all died at the hands of Atalanta, paying the price for their greed.

Until a young man named Melanion appeared.

At the same time, Lin Yi also arrived in Arcadia.

This time, he came alone.

[When Melanion saw Atalanta for the first time, he fell in love with this beautiful, lonely, wild female hunter.]

[However, he also knew that he could not outrun Atalanta at all, and he was troubled by this.]

[In this era, Atalanta is the fastest hero on earth! Perhaps only Hercules, a true monster, can beat her. ]

[And Hercules obviously will not participate in this race, which means Atalanta is invincible. ]

[Of course, the prerequisite for this invincibility is...................]

[The gods will not interfere! ]

[Melanion obviously understood this truth, so he went to seek help from Aphrodite, the goddess of love.]

[“Great Aphrodite, I fell in love with a girl, but she doesn’t have me in her eyes. What should I do? Your loyal believer prays here, hoping that you can give me the right guidance!”]

[Kneeling before the goddess statue in the temple, Melanion prayed with a heart full of pain, longing for a solution to his distress.]

[Aphrodite, the goddess of love, heard his plea and dropped three golden apples.]

[“Take these three golden apples, and when you are surpassed by Atalanta, throw one away…”]

[No one can resist the temptation of golden apples. As long as you see them, you will definitely pick them up.]

[When Atalanta goes to pick up the golden apples, Melanion will take the opportunity to surpass her. ]
