Give Me the Name of God

The middle-aged man raised half of the scimitar and stabbed Manda in the face. Manda was thinking about how to stop the opponent, but unexpectedly the opponent's knife stopped in mid-air.

What a good method of extorting a confession, it made Manda give up all his illusions in an instant. Manda was about to tell everything he knew, but found that the other party didn't stop his hand intentionally, but his hand couldn't move at all.

A silk thread that fell from the sky entangled the middle-aged man's wrist. Looking towards the source along the thread, Manda saw the bookworm Worm flying on the tree.

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, and tried to pull Worm down from the sky with both hands, but Worm flapped his wings vigorously, pulling the middle-aged man staggeringly.

The middle-aged man was startled. He didn't expect Worm to be stronger than him. If his feet were off the ground, he would lose the chance to resist and let Worm at his mercy.

The middle-aged man switched the scimitar to his left hand and slashed at the silk thread a few times. The thread was not broken, and it was far tougher than he imagined.

Seeing that one foot had left the ground, the middle-aged man hurriedly used a spell, wrapped a tree vine around his foot, and let another tree vine attack Wurm.

Worm dodged and dodged the vine, and the middle-aged man shouted: "New branches!" Soft branches suddenly sprang out from the bare dead tree, Worm was caught off guard, and his wings were entangled by the branches. , a tree vine tore Worm out of the air.

Worm fell heavily to the ground, the left wing was torn off, and the right wing was also broken several times. He struggled to stand up, but was kicked to the ground by the middle-aged man again.

After landing, Worm was obviously much clumsier than the middle-aged man. He was punched twice by the middle-aged man and slashed once, lying on the ground, unable to fight back.

The middle-aged man raised his scimitar and was about to chop off Worm's head, when he suddenly heard a roar in his ear, and the three-headed dog sprang out from the grass, jumped up and rushed to him.

The middle-aged man grabbed the three-headed dog's neck with his right hand, and his left hand was groping for the scimitar. He faced the hard steel with the three-headed dog, and his strength did not fall behind. , The middle-aged man shouted: "Vine!" Just as the tree vine rushed towards the three-headed dog, the dog's head in the middle opened its huge mouth, bit and pulled, and tore the middle-aged man's head off.

The battle was over, so suddenly that Manda didn't even have time to give her a word of applause.

The three-headed dog turned back into a human form, picked up the middle-aged man's head from the ground, wrapped it in linen and tied it around his waist.

There were two other heads hanging around his waist, one was that of the fat man and the other was that of the tall, thin man.

"Good job." The three-headed dog looked at Manda with a smile. "Tonight's work is over. Let the Sphinx find someone else to replace us."

...

In the castle hall, the lion girl looked at the three human heads on the ground and asked the three-headed dog what happened.

Leonde smiled and said: "One second-tier, two first-tier, the second-tier one is a follower of Adonis, the god of plants, and the other two are followers of Kratos, the god of strength. I just cleaned up the mess for them. The credit goes to these two little guys!"

Kunta blushed: "I, I don't have any credit, I almost died, it was Manda who saved me."

"Don't give in," Lioness frowned, "Tell me the whole story first!"

Manda told the story from his point of view. Hearing that they saw Cloud Desai's family emblem, the lion girl said, "Your father has such powerful servants under his command? You still want to execute them?"

Manda sighed, "Are you joking? Of course this is not the servant of Baron Crowdersay."

"Do you want to excuse your father?" The lion girl deliberately made things difficult for Manda.

"Why should I excuse him? Although he is not the mastermind of this matter, he is also an accomplice."

"Manda is right, these two people cannot belong to the Claude Sai family," Kunta defended Manda, "Second-order believers can easily become the head of the viscount's bodyguard, or even become the bodyguard of the marquis, a mere baron Not enough to send them."

The lion girl tilted her head and asked, "Where did they come from?"

Manda said: "They were sent by the enemy to find the way, and they asked about the count's whereabouts as soon as they opened their mouths, which proved that they knew that the count was seriously injured."

Sphinx frowned: "Who leaked the news? Call everyone into the hall!"

Leonde shook his head and said: "Don't be so impulsive, it will cause panic. From the accident in the temple until now, I have been on duty. I can guarantee that no one has walked out of the valley."

"How much is your guarantee worth?" Sphinx sneered, "Who will guarantee your loyalty?"

"Whatever you think, whatever you do, as if I didn't say anything!" Leonde turned his head away and stopped talking.

The Sphinx stared at the head on the ground, and felt a little unbelievable. Even if there was a ghost in the valley, after the accident in the temple, he immediately told the news to Baron Crowdersay, where could the baron find these three ruthless people? Role? As far as she knew, apart from the Valley of Resentment and the castle of Viscount Solons, there were no second-order believers of the ancient gods in Iron Mountain Town.

Even if he had planned for a long time to hide these three believers at home, he shouldn't let them die so hastily. There is not even a soldier around, do you really want to conquer the entire valley with these three people?

Cloud Desai didn't have the guts, nor was he so stupid, but who could it be if it wasn't him? This person's status must be higher than Cloud Desai, otherwise Cloud Desai would not be able to obey.

Viscount Thorens of Iron Mountain Town?

The castle of Solons is too far away, and it takes more than a day to go back and forth. The lion girl can't get an answer after thinking hard, so she turns to look at Manda and Kunta, and asks: "Money, fetishes, meritorious deeds, what do you think?" What reward do you want?"

Both Manda and Kunta chose money, and the lion girl gave each of them a gold coin.

Manda should have left, but couldn't help asking a question: "Is our valley special? What kind of enemy would covet this valley?"

Sphinx looked at Kunta: "Didn't you tell him?"

"I don't know how to explain it to him." Kunta shrugged his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and said to Manda, "Many people want to get the name of a god, but most people don't know their own god. It is difficult to find a way to enter and upgrade, but here is different. This is a part of the abyss of hell. This is the territory of Typhon's father, Tartaros. Here you can give up your own god, as long as you follow Typhon's instructions , you will have a chance to get the name of God, that is to say, there is a shortcut here.”

Manda understood what Kunta meant, and it was easier to fall by oneself than to choose the right path. He asked again: "Will the Marquis Nars covet this valley?"

"You know what you're talking about?" the lion girl sneered.

"Don't he want a shortcut to immortality?"

"Even if he wanted to, he wouldn't do that stupid thing!"

"How is the relationship between the Earl and the Marquis of Nars?" Manda asked further.

The lion girl shrugged her eyebrows. Before she could answer, Kunta said from the side: "They are friends, very good friends."

"It's true that we are friends, but it's not that good," said the lion girl, "otherwise he wouldn't have asked us for an extra hundred gold coins."

"If someone knew from the very beginning that something would happen to the priest and the earl would be injured, they had been lying in ambush near the valley, and when they heard the sound of the temple collapsing, they would send people to the valley to investigate overnight. Does it make sense?"

"How is this possible?" Sphinx frowned and said, "Even a high-level follower of Prometheus cannot make such an accurate prediction!"

"What if this is not a prophecy, but a planned conspiracy?" Manda asked tentatively, "Do you know why Typhon is angry?"

"How could I guess the mind of the gods?" The lion girl was a little impatient.

Manda said: "If, I mean, if, the Marquis of Nars sold us a fake golden apple, would the gods be angry?"

The voice fell, and the hall was silent.

Manda went on to say: "If this is the case, the Marquis of Nars already knew that something would happen to the priest and the earl would be injured. He could have ambushed people near the valley long ago, he could have mobilized the Cloud Desai family, and he could even mobilize an army The army, maybe that army is loitering outside the valley."
