Give Me the Name of God

Manda sat in a carriage and took Lion Girl, Worm and Lao Yaman to the Valley of Resentment.

He knew from the beginning that all this was related to Typhon. The three of them all came from the Valley of Resentment. They were all believers of Typhon. None of them got rid of the breath of the valley. As the old witch once said, no matter where they go, It was impossible to escape Typhon's gaze, even to the ends of the earth. The best way to save them is to return to the Valley of Resentment and seek Typhon's forgiveness.

Old Yaman is a rare subordinate. Of course, Manda can accept his death.

Lion Girl and Worm are Manda's most important family members. Apart from her own life, Manda cherishes them the most. The reason why it has been delayed until today is because Manda really doesn't want to deal with Typhon.

He knew Typhon's strength and his viciousness. He did not have the capital to negotiate with Typhon. No matter how much confidence he had in himself, mortal wisdom was not enough to compete with the gods.

In the cave, after Typhon was freed, he once said something to him. He said that he had never been in debt and that the next time they met, he would grant Manda one of his wishes.

The gods cannot be expected to keep their promises, but this is the only bargaining chip that Manda can think of.

Pluto and Luriane used all means to get the three people to their destination alive with difficulty.

Leonde received the letter sent by the carrier pigeon in advance and waited at the entrance of the valley early. Without too many questions or complicated etiquette, Leonder just regarded Manda as an old friend reunited after a long separation, and warmly welcomed Manda into the valley.

Nothing in the valley has changed. The castle hanging on the rock wall is still mysterious and mysterious, and the temple hanging in mid-air is still majestic and solemn.

The snake demon Dostani is still so charming, the millipede Charles is still so wretched, and the old witch Portia is also here. After looking at the conditions of the lion girl, Worm and old Yaman, she wanted to say something, but she hesitated. , sighing, returned to his cave.

Leonder prepared a banquet, but Manda was not in the mood to eat or drink. He wanted to negotiate with Typhon immediately.

But Typhon is not something you can just expect to see. Leonder said to Manda: "I have obtained the oracle. The master will come to the temple tomorrow and have a good night's rest. Tomorrow we will go to the temple to worship together."

Manda didn't sleep all night. It was just like taking an exam. Since she had one night to prepare, she had to think more carefully.

At dawn the next day, the two men boarded the altar. Leonder offered three cows and three sheep to Typhon. When the blood filled the sacrificial vessels, he began to pray silently to Typhon.

Listening to the prayers from Leonder's mouth, Manda, who was still calm at first, immediately became nervous. He re-examined his negotiation strategy, always feeling that there would be some flaws in it.

Mistakes are inevitable, but the principle of negotiation remains unchanged. You cannot fall out with Typhon under any circumstances, and you cannot say anything threatening. Not only will you not be able to save them, but you will also have to pay for your life.

The best result is to exchange that one wish for these three lives. If Typhon does not agree, then leave them in the Valley of Resentment, as long as they live. If Typhon doesn't even agree to this, then beg desperately, and if it doesn't work, give up on Lao Yaman. Family is more important than subordinates.

If a wish can only be exchanged for one person, choose one of Worm and Leo Girl...

Manda gritted his teeth, that was the result he least wanted to see.

Thinking about it, a long time had passed, but there was no response from Leonder.

Manda asked: "Didn't the gods come?"

Leonde sighed softly: "Don't worry, the master promised to come, but before he comes, there are a few things that he needs to confirm with you in advance. You should know the master's thoughts towards you, right?"

What does this mean? Invite me to join your gang?

This is impossible. Although Manda has no concept of loyalty, he knows the consequences of betraying Hermes.

He replied deliberately: "I can't guess the mind of the gods."

"In the master's temple, I hope you can maintain absolute sincerity. Don't forget that you once entered the ranks under this statue. Although a drop of the god's blood was stolen by the cunning Hermes, you still have I made a vow to my master."

Manda laughed dryly. This was a question that he couldn't answer. It was as embarrassing as a public execution.

He could only say perfunctorily: "Why bother mentioning the past?"

Leonder shook his head and said: "Actually, the master has been watching you. He admires you very much. He knows that you have different ambitions. You think that the demon god is too low-level and does not have the strength to dominate. But now the situation is different. ,

Followers of the Demon God can be promoted to at least the fourth level. Sphinx and Hydra are the darlings of the gods and can be promoted to the sixth level. If you think this is not enough, you can directly become a believer of the master, just like me! "

Leonde stared at Manda and said slowly: "I have become a believer of the master. Like the believers of the Lord God, I can be promoted to the eighth level, but the difference is that we do not need such complicated rituals. There is no need for such high sacrifices, the master has even prepared artifacts for us, isn’t this much better than serving those arrogant gods?”

Manda laughed dryly: "We shouldn't say these blasphemous words in the temple."

"Are you worried that I will compete with you for the name of God? You don't have to worry. The master has more than one artifact and can cultivate more than one demigod. And I have some good news to tell you. If you are willing to submit to the master, you You can retain the skills of Hermes and at the same time obtain all the master's skills from level one to level five. Isn't this condition enough to impress you?"

Such conditions are really exciting, and Manda can't find any reason to be picky.

But that was not what he cared about. He took a deep breath and asked a question: "Is the person talking to me now a god or a believer of a god?"

Manda had long felt that the person sitting next to him was no longer Leonder, and that Leonder was not qualified to make such a promise.

Upon hearing this question, Leonder froze, and all movements, expressions, and sounds stopped.

Under normal circumstances, Manda should stand up calmly and leave the temple as quickly as possible.

But he didn't dare to move now, a powerful majesty temporarily incapacitating him.

After sitting in silence for a while, Leonder spoke: "Say your wish."

The sound did not come from Leonder's mouth, but from his chest. There was an extra face on his chest, and that face was talking to Manda.

Manda trembled and said: "I, I want to get my subordinates back. One is named Horna and the other is Worm. Worm is a worm..."

"Hydra must stay. You can take Sphinx away, but her power will disappear. As for the bookworm, I will give him more power as compensation for you."

Manda was shocked, this was much better than he expected.

He was just about to salute and thank him when he heard the human face say: "Say your wish."

Uh, haven't I finished talking?

"I just want my men back, I have no other wishes."

"A mortal, a worm, is this worthy of being compared with a part of my soul?" The eyes on the man's face slowly turned and looked at Manda, "Say your wish, your true wish."

How could there be such a good thing in this world? After rescuing Leo Girl and Worm, they can still make wishes?

Manda remembered a saying, don't underestimate the wisdom of the gods, don't overestimate the kindness of the gods, and never show any greed at this time.

"Thank you for your generosity, I am completely satisfied and really have no other wishes."

The human face remained silent for a while, and the temple fell into a terrible silence.

"You have already rejected me once, and you want to reject me a second time? Who gave you the courage?"

A cloud of smoke rose up in the temple, and countless human faces emerged from the smoke. Tentacles came out of the mouths of the human faces, and countless tentacles slowly moved across Manda's face.

"I said, I never owe debts," all the faces spoke together, "Say your wish, or I will make you disappear completely."
