Give Me the Name of God

After searching for a day in Butterfly Town, Suss couldn't find the person who could save him. He didn't even find a few living people.

At dusk, Suss returned to the castle. Although the castle was safe, Suss did not want to come back from the bottom of his heart. He was fed up with the dark light, the smell of urine and feces in the corridors, and what disgusted him most was his mother and His brother's quarrels were particularly intolerable to his disgusting uncle.

Before the expedition, his father handed over the management of the territory to Suss's brother, the crown prince Roland. Before the outbreak of the plague, Roland took care of all the affairs in an orderly manner, which made Suss a little jealous. In terms of ability, Roland is not inferior to his father.

But Roland had just turned thirty, and he had never experienced such a terrible disaster. After the disaster arrived, he panicked.

First came the floods. Several large rivers in the southeast surged for days, sweeping through more than 20 towns. Some unknown creeks also began to overflow. Even a creek that could be crossed in two steps could level a village after swelling overnight.

In the entire southeast, more than 70% of towns suffered floods. After the floods, a large number of refugees flocked to Longyin City. Everything happened so suddenly, but Roland still made the right response.

He first closed the city gate to prevent the refugees from entering the city and causing trouble. At the same time, he allocated food to give the refugees a meal. He even prepared cotton-padded clothes for the refugees for the winter. So far, all responses have been flawless.

But the plague that followed left Roland unable to deal with it.

After the flood, it is very normal for the plague to occur. According to normal thinking, these refugees should be carrying the plague. By not allowing them to enter the city, Longyin City is protected.

But who would have thought that the plague would break out from Longyin City. Before that, Longyin City had not suffered from floods, and no one knew where the plague came from.

Roland couldn't think of a better way. He could only close the city gate to prevent the plague from spreading. However, this move angered the nobles in the city and gave his mother the opportunity to criticize her.

My mother has always had the ambition to get involved in government affairs. When her father was around, she did not dare to show it. After her father left, her mother's ambition became difficult to restrain.

In the peaceful years, she could not intervene in most affairs. She did not understand finance or farming, and she knew nothing about the most important business. It is not that her mother was not good at government affairs. To be precise, she knew nothing about government affairs. .

After the plague arrived, my mother's opportunity came. The reason is simple. It is much easier to find faults than to do things. In the face of disaster, as long as you carefully find faults, you can pick out a lot in a day.

Under pressure from his mother, Roland handed over part of the government affairs to his mother, and the results can be imagined.

My mother first ordered to cut off the food supply to the refugees, which resulted in a refugee riot.

She asked her brother Count Geovan to command the soldiers to drive away the refugees. Her mother always believed that her father was prejudiced against Uncle Geovan. Her father even insulted his uncle in public, saying that he was as stupid as a pig!

It turns out that my father was wrong, Uncle Geovan was much stupider than a pig.

He sent more than 3,000 soldiers out of the city to fight against the refugees. In three days, almost the entire army was wiped out.

It is hard to imagine that almost all the three thousand soldiers died at the hands of the refugees. Even if a pig was replaced, it would not be so tragic.

To make matters worse, these three thousand soldiers brought the plague outside the city. Every day, a large number of people died of illness and hunger. Some of the refugees rushed to the surrounding villages and towns and brought the plague with them. The other part of the refugees made a desperate move and broke through. Longyin City.

Geovan continued to display his horrific command skills and almost destroyed all the defenders in the city. In the end, only a few hundred guards were left to guard the castle with difficulty.

I thought that the castle would also be breached, but I didn't expect that the plague would become more ferocious. After more than ten days of beating, smashing, looting and burning, most of the refugees who rushed into Longyin City succumbed to the disease.

When things got to this point, her mother did not think she had done anything wrong. On the contrary, she put all the blame on Roland. She believed that Roland was not ready to fight, which led to her uncle's successive defeats.

Roland couldn't bear it anymore and had a quarrel with his mother. The mother loudly claimed that Roland did not respect her, and also spread rumors that Roland would kill his father and mother to inherit the position of Grand Duke in advance.

Roland gave in again, and his mother pressed forward step by step, leaving most of the government affairs to her stupid brother.

And this Uncle Geovan took his father's seat without any shame, playing with government affairs during the day and playing with the maids of the castle at night. Mother even took this for granted.

Back at the castle, Suss heard the familiar quarrel again. It was not so much a quarrel, but the siege of his brother by his mother and uncle. Suss only heard the scoldings of his mother and uncle.

"What qualifications do you have to judge your elders? Do you know how much I have paid for your family?"

"You don't even understand the most basic etiquette, and you dare to talk to me about bullshit laws and bullshit government affairs. What's the use of those bullshit things?"

"Do you think you've read a few bullshit books of any use? Everything I have to do is for the sake of this family. You have to agree whether you agree or not!"

From beginning to end, Susi didn't hear his brother's response. Sometimes he felt that his brother was too weak, and sometimes he felt helpless for his brother.

At dinner, my brother did not eat with his family and hid in his room drinking alone. Late at night, he suddenly called Susi over.

The room was in a mess. My brother seemed to have vomited after drinking, and he vomited more than once, but he still looked sober.

He sat on the bed, asked Suss to sit next to him, patted Suss on the shoulder and said, "Did you sneak out today?"

Roland has always cherished his younger brother, which is rare in a noble family.

Sus nodded and explained in a low voice: "I received an oracle, and the Queen of Heaven told me..."

"Shh!" Roland put a finger to his lips and whispered, "Don't tell me the Queen of Heaven's oracle. Don't forget that I am a believer in the Lord of the Gods."

The brothers smiled at each other, a joke they often made when they were children.

Roland is a believer of Zeus. His talent is not as good as Suss, but he is still much stronger than ordinary people. He has just turned thirty years old and has already reached the third level.

Roland poured himself a glass of wine, looked at his brother, and poured him a glass too.

"I almost forgot, you will be twenty years old in two months. In my eyes, you have always been a child." Roland took a sip of wine and sighed, "It's great to be a child. If father were here, I can be a child like you, but now...you have also heard how embarrassed I am today."

Thinking of what happened before, Susi couldn't help it anymore: "Brother, I don't think you should tolerate your mother all the time, especially our stupid uncle..."

"I know, I know what to do," Roland shook his head. "I know how to deal with my mother, and I know how to deal with my uncle, but I don't know how to deal with this disaster..."

As he spoke, Roland's voice trembled: "My uncle asked me to make meat from dead people into dried meat and feed it to the surviving civilians. He ordered me to move all the family property to his castle. He said it was a gift. A gift to the archbishop, he also asked me to hand over all my father's and my own seals, and he wanted to surrender to Buckon, and let the Lord of Divine Punishment save us,

There is no way I can agree to such a thing. Bucken hates our family so much that he cannot let us go. He will call us demons who eat human flesh and then burn us to death! The only one who can take advantage of this is our uncle, only that old bastard. He will watch us burn to death, and then take away everything from our family! "

Sus gritted his teeth and said, "We won't let him succeed!"

Roland clenched his fists and continued: "Last night, I received an oracle from Zeus. He told me that all this comes from his punishment. He told me that my father did something wrong and this is what he must do. There is only one way to avoid punishment for the price I paid, that is, I personally kill all my family members, including you and my mother. Family members can only die in the hands of family members. Only one person in our family can survive. If I don't do this , I am the one who died."

Hearing this, Su Si hid to the side alertly.

My brother has always loved me very much, but in the face of this terrible disaster, family affection and humanity cannot withstand so many tests.

Roland smiled and took out his father's seal and his own seal from his arms: "I have thought about it, I really have thought about it, but I can't do that kind of thing..."

He hugged Susi tightly and shed tears: "I can't hurt my family, especially you. Take these two seals and follow the instructions of the Queen of Heaven to live. For my father and for me, live.

I will never agree to any conditions from my mother and uncle again. I will not agree to any conditions. Even if I am shattered to pieces, I will defend the last dignity of my family! "
