Give Me the Name of God

In the smoke, the old goat appeared in front of Manda with his hands behind his back.

If it weren't for that familiar smile, Manda would even suspect that she had recognized the wrong god. His figure was several times taller than before, and his robes poured down like water. The robes were inlaid with various gems, each piece emitting dazzling light.

It seems that the great god Pan has been resurrected.

Manda bowed humbly to God Pan, who leaned over and helped him up.

Manda was surprised. According to the record in "Ode", gods cannot be touched. The old goat hated Manda's touch before he was resurrected, but he did not expect that he would touch Manda's limbs today.

"Do you know why I'm looking for you?" Old Goat smiled.

"Give me a way to be promoted." Manda smiled excitedly.

The old goat nodded, took out a stone statue, and said, "Do you know where this comes from?"

"Given to me by the great Hermes?"

"You are so smart." The old goat handed the stone statue to Manda. Manda put the stone statue away and asked tentatively: "Have you been completely resurrected?"

The old goat nodded again.

"You have met Hermes, which means..."

God Pan waved his cloak, wrapped Manda in it, and smiled: "My father already knows the news of my resurrection. He will explain it to the Lord of the Gods and help me get back my place on Mount Olympia. "

"You are about to return to Mount Olympia!" Manda saluted again, "Congratulations to you, great God Pan, your glory will always shine on Mount Olympia. With your persistent belief and strong will, you relied entirely on your own The power has returned to the ranks of the gods, and your great deeds will be praised forever in both the divine and human worlds."

The old goat frowned and said, "Why do I say it was all by my own strength? You also made a lot of efforts, and it was you who helped me get back the artifact."

"Those are all...coincidences, I really didn't do anything..."

Looking at Manda's troubled expression, Pan Shen laughed and said: "Aren't you just afraid that I will harm you? Don't worry, my father and I have already thought of a suitable reason, enough to deceive the Lord of the Gods. "

Manda let out a long breath, looked down at the stone statue in his hand, then looked up at the old goat. He had something to say, but he hesitated.

The old goat naturally understood what he was thinking and took out a piece of parchment from his arms: "Do you want a translation?"

Manda nodded.

"You still want to get a sacrifice from me?"

Manda laughed dryly and said, "Am I asking for too much?"

"I'm a little greedy," the old goat touched Manda's head, "but there's nothing I can do about it, why do I owe you anything?"

"You don't owe me anything. This is my sincere request."

"I have deciphered the secret text on the stone statue, but I cannot write the translation on paper, carve it on wood, draw it on stone, or leave any record that can be read. This is the order of Hermes , once violated, will be severely punished."

Manda pursed her lips and said, "In other words, I have to remember."

"Yes, remember it word for word."

This was quite difficult. Manda concentrated on waiting for the old goat's instructions, but the old goat did not say the content of the translation.

"I will tell you the process of the sacrifice after you get the sacrifice."

Is this old guy still worried that I will default on my debt? Why don't he just tell me a price?

"You haven't told me the price of the sacrifice yet?" Manda asked carefully. .

"I'm very sorry to tell you that I can't buy the sacrifice this time."

"What kind of thing does it need to be exchanged for?"

Pan Shen smiled and said: "Don't always think about doing business. This sacrifice does not belong to the world. You have to go to a very dangerous place and get it back with your own hands."

"A very dangerous place..." Manda raised her head and looked at the old goat with clear eyes.

God Pan looked down at Manda and said expressionlessly: "Do you want me to get it back for you?"

Manda said with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, great god, for your kindness, let me know how to repay you!"

"When did I promise you?" God Pan looked at Manda helplessly, "It's not that I don't want to help you. According to the contract between the gods, there are some places I can't go."

"If you can't go, how can I go?" Upon hearing that Pan Shen refused to help, Manda immediately changed her face.

"You can go, but you must be fully prepared. I will give you ten days to prepare. You must prepare enough food and water to last you three days. It must be carried on your back and it should not be too heavy. "

"That's easy to say. I can hide the food on the Styx Island."

"When you get there, don't use the Styx Islands, otherwise you won't be able to leave alive. You also need to prepare a lot of weapons. The more powerful the better, the more the better."

Can't use Styx Island? Manda looked confused: "Where is it?"

"You will naturally know when the time comes. During these ten days, eat as much as possible and sleep as much as possible. When you get to that place, you will not have much time to sleep." The smoke rose and the old goat disappeared.

Manda sat on the edge of the bed, carefully recalling the words of the old goat. This promotion made him feel very dangerous.

What kind of sacrifices do not exist in the human world? Why does Hermes set such a high threshold for promotion?

The old goat shouldn't lie to himself, right? Could it be that He was worried that Typhon's affairs would be exposed and wanted to kill him and silence him?

Manda looked at the stone statue in his hand. Judging from its value, this stone statue could not be fake. He might as well try to decipher the cipher text.

After staring at the stone statue twice, Manda gave up the idea of ​​deciphering it, not because the cipher text on the stone statue was so complicated, but because there was no text at all, not a single word.

kidding me? Isn't this a stone statue used for promotion?

What about the oracle of Prometheus? Are they teaming up to trick me?

Isn't it? Two gods teaming up to plot against a mortal?

It shouldn't be the case. Old Goat has given me too much help to get to where I am today. No matter how suspicious I am, I should at least retain a little trust in Him.

Ten days is not a long time, so be prepared first. Manda took out all the sacred blood stones, called the poet and Guatel, and asked them to make a batch of lightweight blood blades.

He called the cook again and asked her to make a batch of dry food.

"It should be light and small, and it should be full in one bite."

The cook was dumbfounded: "Sir, I can't think of what this is."

Manda pinched the cook's fat cheek and said with a smile: "Then think carefully..."

Before she could take her hand away, she suddenly saw the lion girl pushing the door open and letting out a roar that scared Manda to the point of almost crawling under the bed.

"Beast, you won't even let go of such a woman!" Because of the backlight, Manda couldn't see the face of the lion girl, and could only hear the clatter of her teeth.

The cook was so frightened that she burst into tears. Manda asked her to jump out of the window and escape, but the window was too small and the cook was too fat to get out.

The cook was crying, and the lion girl was approaching step by step. Manda blocked the cook behind her, stretched out her hands, and shouted loudly: "I have my own reasons, please listen to my explanation."

Shishi**sen smiled and said: "Tell me, who is the most shameless man in the world? If you answer correctly, I will kill the most shameless man. If you answer wrong, I will kill you!"
