Give Me the Name of God

Chapter 45 The long-lost oracle

The God of Punishment never drinks.

The Divine Punishers have a strict hierarchy. The superiors are always on the strongest side and have absolute say and control.

They wear hats to hide their awkward hairstyles.

Inferring from this, the people who stayed in the tavern yesterday were probably God's Punishers. Of course, they could also be a group of kind-hearted refugees. Under the leadership of a respected elder, they could only stay in the tavern because they couldn't find any other place to stay. Stay at the nearest pub.

Manda was in no mood to argue with him, he had to rush back to the tavern as soon as possible.

Why do the God Punishers come to the tavern? This is the place they hate the most. There is only one possibility. They are here to arrest people and heretics.

This place was originally a thorn in the side of God's Punisher. If anyone dared to run this tavern, it would naturally attract the attention of God's Punisher. The key is what they have discovered.

Those few people did not dare to arrest anyone directly, which proved that their strength was not too strong. Manda was wearing a wing-covering brooch, so it should not have been exposed.

Worm has most likely been exposed, and I don’t know if he is still alive.

Manda rode a carriage to the west of the city, which was still far away from the ruins of the temple. Manda got out of the carriage early because he was worried that he would be ambushed.

After walking through the ruins and arriving at the tavern, the wind and snow suddenly became more violent. Manda had a bad feeling and the danger pendant was slowly getting hot.

According to his survival philosophy, he should run away immediately at this time and not care about Worm's life or death at all. But after yesterday's lesson, he was worried that Worm had left some other mechanism on him. Once he was far away from Worm's control, , it is very likely that it will be cut into shreds by his worm threads.

The door of the tavern was still open, and Wurm was completely unaware of the danger. He was happily scrubbing the counter with a bucket. He felt someone touched the worm thread at the door, and hurriedly came out with a smile:

"Guests from afar, please come and sit inside..."

Seeing it was Manda, Worm's smile disappeared: "Why did you come back?"

Manda quietly closed the door of the tavern and asked in a low voice: "Where were the guests last night?"

"Let's go. They left right after you left. They didn't steal our food or wine, they just used a few sticks of firewood." Worm didn't understand why Manda was so nervous.

"They are God's Punishers and they are here to find us." Manda did not give any more explanations. If Worm didn't want to leave, any more explanations would be in vain.

The bucket in his hand fell to the ground. Worm looked at Manda, then at the fire, then at the counter and the wine barrel.

"We should go." Without a word of argument, Worm immediately returned to the room, simply packed a package, and prepared to leave with Manda.

This is the count's advice. Don't panic when you encounter any enemy, except the God Punisher. Those who encounter divine punishment must flee quickly without hesitation for a moment.

Manda didn't need to pack her luggage. She kept the wax-stained tablecloth with her, and there were no other important things except for the thousand-mile horse.

The horse was already very strong, and Manda planned to escape on it, but Worm could fly, so it seemed safer to follow him.

Worm spit out worm silk, wrapped Manda into a silkworm chrysalis, and prepared to take him away, but he flapped his wings desperately, but couldn't fly.

The wind is too strong, and the direction of the wind keeps changing. Someone is using magic to control the wind.

Worm showed a rare panic. He climbed up to the roof and tried to take off from a high place, but as soon as he opened his wings, he was knocked down by the strong wind.

Worm fell in the yard and couldn't stand up for a long time. Manda shouted: "Retract your wings and let me out!"

Worm retracted his wings and cocoon, and Manda quickly took the pendant of danger out of his clothes. There were already blisters on his chest.

A sign of mortal danger, any mistake could kill both of them instantly.

"Someone is coming!" Worm felt the vibration, and someone touched the worm threads around the tavern.

Manda, who had lived two lives, was still calm at the moment, and a fixed strategy for dealing with danger immediately started in his mind.

First, we need to find out the source of the danger.

Manda ran up to the third floor, and could vaguely see the light of fire in the wind and snow.

It was the torch of God's Punisher. They came from the front door. The number was not too large and they could not form a siege. They could escape through the back door.

After walking to the back door and standing at the door for a while, Manda stepped back again.

The God Punishers have been ambushing nearby for a long time, why didn't they take action against Worm?

They didn't want to alert the snake, they wanted to wait for Manda to come back and then catch them all.

Since such thorough preparations have been made, there is no chance of escape. There may be an ambush at the back door.

Manda climbed up the back building and observed for a while in the wind and snow. Behind the tavern was a patchwork of large and small gravels. The stones were covered with snow, and nothing unusual could be seen.

Everything has value. These stones come from the ruins of the temple. Putting aside the sentiment, they have basically no value.

What if there are people hidden in these rocks?

Manda opened his cross-eyed eyes, exhausted the limits of his vision, and scanned every gap in the rocks.

There were shadows of gold coins, probably hundreds of them.

Life is humble most of the time, and people like bounty hunters who work for themselves all the time are worth more, but God's Punishers never hire bounty hunters, they only use believers who are loyal to them, and this kind of A fool who is willing to sacrifice his life for others is often not worth a gold coin.

This man is worth hundreds of gold coins, which shows that he is not an ordinary character. A long-lost voice sounded in Manda's ears:

"There is a second-level believer of Boreas, the North Wind God, and a second-level false god warrior. Don't go out, you will die without any body parts."

It was the voice of Hermes, and Manda thought she had been forgotten by Him.

All the fear and tension disappeared in an instant. The gods had taken action. What else was there to be afraid of? Just showing the name of Hermes is enough to scare them to death. As long as the great god moves his finger, this group of divine punishers can be wiped out.

"I can't directly provide help to you. I can't directly use power in the human world. This is the rule."

The confidence that had just exploded was extinguished by Hermes' words, and Manda also lost his previous calmness. A series of questions appeared in his mind.

Why can Typhon use power on earth? He destroyed the temple in the valley!

"Because that valley does not belong to the human world at all. It is part of Tartarus."

You can't use power directly, you can give it to me!

"You can't bear it."

Then think of a way that I can bear.

"There is no way."

You might as well give me two divine objects or something like that!

"Do you have money to buy it?"

Talking about money at this time hurts feelings! Manda begged to no avail, so she had to make one last request: at least give me a hint!

During the conversation with the gods, there was a knock on the door in the tavern.

"Kind shopkeeper, I'm here to stay again. Please open your door!" It was the voice of the brown-haired man last night.

They had already arrived at the door, but they did not rush in and seemed to want to solve the problem through negotiation.

Wurm responded in the tavern: "We are full, you can stay elsewhere!"

How long has it been and are you still in the mood to brag? There have never been ten guests in this tavern at the same time, so how could it possibly be full?

"Open the door, friend," the brown-haired man said patiently, "I know what kind of person you are, and I also know what kind of blood you bleed. That is the sin in your destiny, and there is still a chance for redemption. Open this door, and the merciful Lord will give you the way to new life!”

Worm opened the stable and wanted to escape through the back door on his horse, but Manda stepped forward to stop him.

"There is an ambush at the back door, and there are two second-level enemies."

"Second level? Why don't they come in! Why don't they just kill us?" Worm showed his fangs, and now he only had the thought of fighting for his life.

Yeah, why don't they come in? Two Level 2s could easily kill them.

"Think carefully, why don't they come in?" Hermes gave a hint, "Hold on for half a candle, and you will be saved."
