Your Assassin's Creed Odyssey walkthrough for 'Delivering a Champion' mission. Learn how to find Alkon, get the oil recipe, and persuade Testikles to join you.

Alright, let's tackle the 'Delivering a Champion' quest in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. This one involves a bit of travel and some specific dialogue choices, but it's pretty straightforward if you follow along.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll need to find Testikles' trainer, Alkon. He's hanging out at the Demos, which is located in the southwestern part of Sparta. Head over there and strike up a conversation with him to get this quest rolling.
  2. 2
    After you've chatted with Alkon and gone through the dialogue, your next stop is the village of Gytheion. You need to head south from Sparta to get there. Once you arrive, your goal is to find and purchase some oil from Testikles' favorite merchant.
  3. 3
    When you get to Gytheion, use your eagle, Ikaros, to pinpoint the merchant's exact location. Go talk to her. She'll tell you the oil isn't available, but don't worry! Choose the dialogue option 'Can't we work something out?' and she'll teach you how to make the oil yourself.
  4. 4
    Now, approach the fire. You'll get a couple of dialogue choices. Pick these two: 'First, I light a fire.' and then 'Oil of Athena.'
  5. 5
    The final part of making the oil depends on what the slave merchant mentioned earlier. Pay attention to that detail and select the dialogue option that matches it.
  6. 6
    Once the oil is made, it's time to find Testikles. He's waiting in the Bay of Hades. You can either head west over the mountains from Gytheion, or if you want to avoid the trek, fast travel to your ship, sail south, and then west. The route you take just changes which parts of the world you see first.
  7. 7
    When you reach the southernmost island in the Bay of Hades, make sure to loot the treasure at the Shipwreck of Nestor. After that, find and talk to Testikles. He's not keen on sailing on the Adrestia, so offer him the oil you just made to convince him.
  8. 8
    With Testikles safely on board, set sail for Elis, which is located northwest of the Bay of Hades.
  9. 9
    Dock the Adrestia when you get to Elis and find Alkibiades. You'll have a conversation with him, and honestly, the dialogue choices don't really matter here. Just go through the conversation.
  10. 10
    At the end of the chat, Testikles will have an unfortunate accident and fall into the sea. You'll then need to take his place.
Tips
  • Don't stress too much about the dialogue with Alkibiades; your choices don't impact the outcome of this particular quest.
  • The choice between traveling over the mountains or sailing to the Bay of Hades is purely cosmetic – pick whichever you prefer!
  • Completing this quest progresses the main story and moves you closer to your goals in Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
