Chapter 45 The trial begins

Chapter 45 The trial begins

Bellerophon is a hero in ancient Greek mythology, the son of King Glaucus of Corinth and grandson of Sisyphus.

By the way, Sisyphus was the one who was punished by the gods and had to push a spherical boulder to the top of a mountain, then have it slide down again and again throughout his life, with all his previous efforts wasted, repeating this in vain task over and over again endlessly.

And if we are talking about the trial of Bellerophon, then the only one that is related.

This is probably the epic story about the king of Lycia who ordered Bellerophon to kill the Chimaera, an evil beast that brought disaster to Lycia, and wanted to kill him with the help of the Chimaera.

It is rumored that Bellerophon was a prince of Corinth in ancient Greece. After accidentally killing his brother while hunting, he fled to Proetos. The king of Proetos admired him very much and pardoned his crime.

But King Proetus' wife fell in love with him but was rejected, so she falsely accused him of raping her. The annoyed King Proetus entrusted Bellerophon to deliver a letter to his father-in-law, the King of Lycia. The King of Lycia admired Bellerophon very much, but when he opened the letter, he found that his son-in-law asked him to kill the messenger. The King of Lycia could not bear it, so he asked him to kill the Chimaera that was causing trouble for Lycia, and wanted to kill him with the help of the Chimaera.

A prophet told Bellerophon that the prerequisite for killing the Chimaera was to tame Pegasus. After Bellerophon tamed Pegasus with the help of the goddess, he fought with the Chimaera. Because the Chimaera breathed fire and was difficult to approach, Bellerophon coated his spear with fire-proof graphite, rode on Pegasus and plunged the spear into the Chimaera's throat, killing it.

The above is certainly not what Li Qing remembers. He does not have the photographic memory of the protagonist of Xunwen entertainment novels.

These are the names of the side quests given by the system that Li Qing found familiar after searching on Baidu.

After all, except for some minor details.

Most of the history of this world is exactly the same as Li Qing's previous life, and the differences are not so different as to be completely different.

but why?
Li Qing didn't understand why the name of this mission was so special that it was named after a hero in Greek mythology, even though he had only started a few missions before.

It also included the main quest "Win the Rising Star Championship!" with unclear content. After she finished recording the preliminary round of the Rising Star, it was stuck in a gray and unchangeable state, and she didn't even get the quest reward.

The remaining few times were when we performed impromptu performances together at Dongjiao New Square with Su Qianqian.

It can be said to be a completely welfare task. There are no requirements. It just opens up Wang Sulong's personal song library, allowing Li Qing to sing freely. Naturally, there is no reward.

Of course, the somewhat flawed growth item [Wandering Master] can also be considered an alternative reward.

Although the function seems a bit useless, it is better than nothing.

The rest was the side quest [Sing for me as much as you can!] that he didn't know how to activate. Li Qing guessed that it was the quest that Su Qianqian was carrying, but he had no idea how to activate it.

I just guess that it may be related to the reason why Su Qianqian ran away from home, but the details are still unclear.

This time the mission...

Its refresh time is... the moment Chu Qingcheng signed the contract!

So after barely seeing it clearly, Li Qing performed a series of flag-planting actions. After all, for this task, the system was constantly exaggerating a sense of terror, just like a brave warrior who had not yet reached the maximum level in the novice village, and encountered cadres of the Demon King's army at the corner when he went out.

Heaven!
But despite this, Li Qing still chose to trigger this task without hesitation, to trigger this task whose reward was not even revealed.

Maybe even Li Qing himself couldn't understand it.

But if Butler Chen knew about Li Qing's behavior, he would probably sigh in his heart.

This is the embodiment of "confidence". Yes, Li Qing has an extraordinary confidence that he himself cannot detect.

The confidence comes from his identity as a time traveler, but more importantly, it comes from the confidence brought to him by the system residing in his body!

After all, Li Qing's physical fitness is several times better than that of ordinary people, and he has broken his own shackles. As long as he is not facing a gangster with a weapon, he can basically solve it!

There is also the system's trump card - the Huyanjuelu Xiu Experience Card, although it can only be used for a few minutes.

There is no alternative at the moment!

For Huyan Juelu Xiu, who comes from the Ultimate Series Universe, the current world is like the Earth encountering a fully armed Trisolaran fleet.

You are lowly ants!

The two-dimensional foil directly attacks with a dimensionality reduction attack!
Apart from anything else, the mind-control technique alone could allow Li Qing to walk sideways, modify his memory, and manipulate his behavior, although it only lasted for a few minutes, and the system had to urgently activate the life-saving module. Then Li Qing had to pay a price he didn't know about, and then he had to take on a mandatory task that he couldn't refuse.

Because of all these things, Li Qingcai has a "confidence" that he himself is not aware of. Although he seems to have nothing, but... he, indeed, has everything.

Yes, at least until this kind of "confidence" develops into arrogance, it is of no use to Li Qing.

It's because his master doesn't trust him.

Back to the topic, Li Qing chose to trigger this somewhat dangerous mission, not just for the mission, but for a deeper reason.

There is a connection between what he and Li Qing were originally planning to do.

Before this task appeared, Li Qing contacted the weathered middle-aged man on the other end of the phone, which was exactly the scene Su Qianqian saw.

And it just so happens that the pre-quest for the Trial of Bellerophon...

It was Li Qing who went to meet the vicissitudes of life man...

[The Trial of Bellerophon: Pre-Quest - Letter from King Proetus]

[Mission Brief: Go to the destination and meet Tian Youchun. ]

[Mission Rewards: The mission Trial of Bellerophon is officially launched, and system support for level balance adjustment is obtained. ]

Sure enough, the system's tasks are all evolved based on my experience... Li Qing had some enlightenment, compared to those systems that constantly give the host daily tasks and a lot of rewards.

Li Qing's system is extremely lazy. It only issues tasks based on what he encounters, and the tasks are all related to him, such as the Star of Tomorrow competition, the impromptu performance at the East Suburb New Square, and the current meeting...

Because there is no option to give up for competitions and performances, the system directly assumes that Li Qing will accept it, and the meeting with Tian Youchun can be canceled, so the task is set to voluntary acceptance mode.

Although Li Qing had no reason to give up, he still had room for choice, rather than being a puppet controlled by a rigid system.

No autonomy at all~
