Give Me the Name of God

Al Meng wants to come to Qixing Mountain? How could he be in such a good mood?

When did he become a marquis? Did he go to the royal capital to receive the canonization? The efficiency of the royal capital is also too high.

These questions are not the focus. The point is that Almeng is coming, and some preparations must be made.

"All the women, no matter how old they were, blackened their faces with charcoal and hid in caves!"

"Good-looking men, especially you, Pluto and Verloc, should also paint their faces black and hide!"

"Paint my big white horse black too and hide it!"

"Guatel, where are you going?"

Guatel wiped his nose and said, "I'll go find charcoal, paint my face black, and hide it."

"You don't have to hide."

"Didn't you say that handsome men have to hide themselves?"

Manda sighed softly and said, "He doesn't understand your beauty."

…

At dawn the next day, Manda and his people lined up on the mountain road early, waiting for El Meng's arrival.

Al suddenly stepped out of the carriage, looked at the honor guards on both sides of the mountain road, and couldn't help but frown.

"Young man, your nose..."

"Being cut down by the enemy in battle is the honor of a warrior!"

"Soldier, these spots on your face..."

"I was enchanted by a wizard when I was born. This is the honor of a warrior!"

"What about you?" Al suddenly walked up to a soldier, "Your eyes..."

"My eyes are very good, but they are just a little small!" The soldier opened his eyes. "Although they are small, I can see clearly. This is the glory of a soldier!"

Almeng looked at Manda helplessly: "Lord Monchik, your soldiers look a bit plain..."

"Simplicity is the glory of a warrior!" Manda saluted Aiermeng respectfully. Against the backdrop of the guard of honor, Manda looked particularly handsome today.

Under Manda's guidance, Almeng arrived at the new mountain village in Weixing Mountain. Although it was not yet completed, the momentum and layout of the new village were unmatched by the old one.

Walking into the gate, there is an exquisite garden. There are no flowers planted yet, only bare stone pillars and flower beds. Behind the garden is a spacious hall, which has not been capped yet. Behind the hall is the back garden and bedrooms. There is no construction yet, only existing In Manda's mouth.

Along the way, looking at the half-finished fortress, Aiermeng's guards couldn't help but laugh.

But Almen didn't smile. He stood in the center of the hall, drank the wine that Manda offered, and read out the document that conferred Manda.

"Although I haven't been able to meet His Majesty in person, the honor bestowed upon you by His Majesty will not fade, and His Majesty's trust and expectations for you will not change!"

Manda bowed deeply and responded: "Your wise Majesty will lead our kingdom to eternal prosperity. I am willing to dedicate my flesh and blood to your Majesty to defend his land, defend his majesty, and defend the supreme gift he has given me. glory!"

The simple canonization ceremony ended here. Manda invited Almeng to the old mountain stronghold. After a short rest, a grand banquet began.

After everything was said on the scene, it was natural to talk about something serious at the banquet. Al said fiercely and seriously: "Viscount Monchik, I didn't see a woman in your territory, and I didn't even smell the smell of a woman. Can you tell me the reason?"

Manda laughed dryly and said: "Women will make soldiers lose their courage and blood."

Al shook his head violently and said: "If you want to continue to be a bandit or become a general, this is a good choice, but if you really want to become a lord of a place, you must let your people thrive."

Manda saluted and said, "Follow your teachings."

Al looked around, suddenly rubbed his forehead and said, "I'm a little drunk."

Manda understood and quickly took Al to the bedroom.

After the screen retreated, there were only two people left in the bedroom. Al whispered softly: "Do you feel aggrieved for not being canonized by the king personally?"

"That's not true. To be honest, I don't really want to go to the royal capital. You have already given me the title, so why do I have to meet the king?" Manda was telling the truth. Bucken mentioned Archbishop Howitt. According to Stanley, the Archbishop will not leave the Royal Capital easily, which proves that Bucken is probably also in the Royal Capital. To measure his own strength, Manda does not want to have direct contact with Bucken yet.

Al nodded with satisfaction: "You know what is most important. This is what I appreciate most about you. Except for the Seven Star Mountain, the king did not grant you more land. Start everything from scratch. I know how difficult it is." , within three years, I will waive all your offerings, and you can just run your territory with peace of mind, but after three years, you must abide by the laws of the kingdom and pay me 30% of your income every year."

As the deputy of the Marquis, it is his duty to pay tribute every year, and Manda will naturally not refuse. Just like paying taxes when doing business, there is nothing pretentious about this.

Al's ears suddenly twitched. It was sure that no one was eavesdropping outside the door. He lowered his voice again and said, "Have you encountered the God of Punishment recently?"

"I encountered the assassin of God's Punisher and almost lost my life." Manda told Elmen the truth, but did not disclose the information he got from the dead soul.

Al sighed deeply and said: "Although the assassin missed, the God's Punisher still has many ways to deal with you. If they want to build a church in Qixing Mountain, what should you do? You are now the viscount of the kingdom. In your It is a reasonable request to have a Divine Punishment Deacon by your side.”

Manda thought for a moment and asked tentatively: "There is no church in Blackwater City, and there is no God's Punisher. I want to know what method the Marquis used to keep the God's Punisher out?"

Al frowned fiercely and said: "Viscount Monchik, pay attention to your words. How could I keep the Lord's believers out? That's because the border land is not peaceful, and the Lord's believers are not willing to settle in Blackwater City. "

Manda smiled and said: "It's a poor place with barren mountains and wilderness. I think the Lord's believers are even less willing to live here."

"What if they insist on coming?" El Meng looked at Manda with embarrassed eyes. This was a reminder and a test.

Manda said calmly: "Bandits have always been rampant in the mountains. If the Lord's followers must come, there will inevitably be some accidents on the way."

Al laughed fiercely and said: "I really like your cleverness. If the God Punishers can't reach Seven Star Mountain, I believe they will not be able to reach Blackwater City."

"Unless they take a long detour through the mountains."

Al nodded sharply and stared at Manda: "You are already fifteen years old. At the age of marriage, I want to marry my daughter to you, but I have more than two hundred daughters and I don't know which one to choose. "

Manda's goosebumps appeared. Although marriage was an important means for nobles to form alliances, he did not want to marry Almen's daughter. He did not want to be monitored by the God Punisher, nor did he want to be monitored by Almen.

"My Lord Marquis, my territory is too desolate. I don't want your daughter to suffer with me. Please give me a few more years."

"One year, I only give you one year. If I can see a castle here in one year, I will marry my most beloved and beautiful daughter to you."

Manda originally wanted to keep Almeng to stay for a few more days, but Almeng left on the same day: "Your place is too boring. Find more women. Remember, you must reproduce!"

…

Al left suddenly, Manda felt a little depressed, and the joy of becoming a viscount was diluted a lot.

Elmeng gave Manda a hint, proving that he had received news in the royal capital. This news was probably related to Bucken, but Elmeng refused to tell Manda all the news, which made Manda have a problem. It feels like you have to sacrifice your life to block someone else's gun.

Facing the threat of Bucken, it was necessary to hold back for the time being, but a news channel in the royal capital must be opened, and one could not remain blindfolded and survive under Almen's control.

But I have never been to the capital, so how can I get through the news channels in the capital?

Manda thought of Stanley.

Stanley was also very embarrassed about this. When he was originally canonized as a viscount, he did have a lot of friends in the royal capital. But with his current status and situation, he is afraid that these friends will avoid him.

I'm afraid there is only one feasible candidate. Stanley said to Manda: "General Longesen is my friend, but I don't know if he is still willing to pay attention to me now."
