Give Me the Name of God

Manda received a letter from Stanley. Stanley did win a battle, but this victory was not complete.

After capturing the collector alive, Stanley, with the help of Manu and Tokar, mastered Gatan's whereabouts and formulated a raid plan.

He led five thousand men to besiege Gatan. With a five-fold advantage in strength, he firmly believed that the enemy would not have a chance to escape.

But then, a series of changes happened.

First, he misjudged the number of enemy troops. This was indeed not Stanley's fault alone. After so many days of dealings, almost everyone thought that the number of enemy troops was only a thousand, but no one thought that Gatan hid some of the soldiers. In the tunnel in the mountain.

Because the collector was captured alive, the hidden enemy troops were exposed, and the actual number reached 3,500. This had already destined Stanley to be unable to form an encirclement.

The exit chosen by Manu was also somewhat inappropriate. Originally, the strength of the troops was not much different, and the location of the attack was too close to the enemy, so that Stanley was discovered by the enemy as soon as he made a move, which also left Gatan with a chance to escape. .

Stanley took precautions against this in advance and asked Guatel to lay a trap along the enemy's escape route.

But he never expected that most of the traps set by Guatel failed. Since Guatel was promoted to the fourth level, there has never been a similar mistake, and Stanley suffered a serious blow the first time.

Gatan just escaped. As for Tokar not bringing sentries to fill the gap in the encirclement, this was purely a case of Stanley pulling people into the water. Thousands of people were fighting in a melee, and dozens of sentries were asked to plug the gap. It was pure fantasy.

Despite all the changes, as an outstanding general, Stanley still achieved a wonderful victory. In this battle, more than 3,000 enemies were killed, leaving only less than 400 remnants for Gatan, and Stanley Less than 200 people were killed on the side.

Such a brilliant record still made Stanley tremble. He was really frightened. He suspected that Manda and Gatan had a deep hatred, and letting Gatan go would be equivalent to committing an unforgivable crime.

Looking at the regret between the lines in the letter, Manda couldn't help but want to laugh. He wanted to give Stanley a few words of encouragement and comfort, but he was worried that the contrast with his previous attitude would be too great.

After thinking for a moment, he picked up a pen and wrote a reply, criticizing Stanley in harsh terms, and then fully affirmed the victory.

He wanted to give Stanley a reward, and he had to reward it. This victory was obviously recognized by Kronos and had helped him win back his skills.

He recorded a first-class meritorious service for Stanley and gave Stanley the freedom to reward and punish him in this battle.

In other words, Stanley can freely reward and punish relevant personnel based on their combat performance.

Stanley burst into tears when he received the letter. He said with a trembling voice: "Manda has forgiven me. He gave me first-class merit and gave me the freedom to reward and punish."

Upon hearing this, everyone who had kept their distance from him all gathered around him.

Manu was the first to speak: "General, my contribution in this battle is self-evident, and I believe you will make a just reward."

Toca said: "My scouts and I have contributed a lot, and I think you will never ignore this."

Guatel wiped his nose and said: "I also led the craftsmen to do a great job!"

Stanley yelled with red eyes: "Go away! Go away! Don't you say that this is all my fault? Don't you say that it is all my responsibility? A group of ruthless and unjust people, you still want a reward? I I won’t give you a single copper!”

…

Lying in the cave and watching the sunset, Manda was in a great mood.

It would be better to leave Gatan alive, as this will make the next victory easier.

The few remnants of Gatan's soldiers cannot run very far, and they will be discovered by sentries sooner or later. If they kill him then, and include the third battle, not only will all the followers of Ares lose their skills, but they will also lose their skills. You can also get rewards from Kronos.

Thinking of rewards, Manda wondered if she should give Stanley a little more reward, at least two hundred more gold coins.

Thinking of two hundred gold coins, Manda thought of another important thing.

I haven’t returned the invisibility hat yet, so I’ll get two hundred gold coins a day!

While the lion girl was hunting outside, Manda quickly arranged the altar. He didn't like the cute customer service guy very much, so he quickly settled the bill and returned the things. Manda didn't want to do it anymore unless necessary. Summon him easily.

But in the white smoke, what Manda saw was not the cute little brother, but the familiar figure.

Broad forehead, pointed jaw, goatee...

The old goat is back!

Manda laughed excitedly, but heard Pan Shen roar: "Where have you gone? I've been looking for you!"

What's happening here? Don’t you know where I have gone?

In shock, Pan Shen shouted again: "Answer me, where have you been?"

Does He really not know? Or are you testing yourself?

How to answer?

Said that he first went to Drawsha City and then got help from Typhon?

It’s best not to tell Him this in a hurry, and if He doesn’t know, it’s best never to let Him know.

"I went to the Royal Capital." Telling part of the truth is the best way to deal with it.

Pan Shen frowned and said, "What are you doing in the capital?"

"I got lost. Originally, I wanted to go to the mountains to find out where the enemy troops were, but I didn't expect that I went in the wrong direction in the underworld and went to the royal capital in a confused way."

It was still partially true, and Pan seemed to accept this explanation.

"Do you know you're afraid?" Pan Shen sneered, "Do you know how fragile you are when you lose your skills? Do you want to know the reason behind this?"

What does it mean? Of course I know the reason behind it, but God Pan seems to know nothing about it.

Manda asked tentatively: "I prayed to you when I was in the royal capital, but I didn't receive a response from you."

Pan Shen said: "I answered your prayer. You should have seen the light on the oracle ring."

"I mean, I didn't see you at the altar."

"Who asked you to go to the Royal Capital? No wonder I couldn't find you," the old goat sighed: "Two months ago, the Lord of Divine Punishment laid a fog in the Golden Lion City (the Royal Capital). My status Not enough to see through His fog.”

Manda was stunned for a long time and said: "You don't have enough status to find me? Then why can he find me? Is his status higher than yours?"

The old goat frowned and said, "Who are you talking about?"

"A young man, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with black hair, a long face, likes to sniff, and the way he talks is a bit..." Manda wanted to say that he was a bit dull, but considering the personality of this young man, he quickly changed He said in a tone of voice, "A bit frank, he likes to say something..."

Before Manda could finish speaking, Pan Shen took over the conversation: "He likes to say, this is not something I can do."

The old goat called the young man "him", which was enough to prove the other person's identity. After a long silence, he asked Manda: "Did he give you anything?"

"It's not a gift, it's a rental." Manda quickly handed the invisibility hat to the old goat. The moment he saw the hat, Pan smiled.

"Congratulations, you met our father."

Hermes? My true self?

Manda couldn't believe her ears: "No, it's not Him. It's different from the statue. You said that the real statue has the same appearance as the god!"

"There are thousands of gods, and my father showed you one of them. As a mortal, it is your supreme glory to be able to see the Lord God."

Manda's mind went blank. He recalled the conversation with the young man. He was not very respectful, complained a lot, and had a little dispute. It was a miracle that he was not sanctioned on the spot.

More importantly, the reason why Old Goat couldn't find him in the capital was because the Lord of Divine Punishment had arranged a fog in the capital.

The old goat didn't know that he had gone to Drawsha City, which proved that Typhon used a similar method to block the old goat's sight.

But Hermes was able to find himself, proving that he could see through the fog of the Lord of Divine Punishment.

Can He see through the mists of Typhon?

It should be possible. When Manda entered the level, he directly took a drop of blood from under Typhon's nose.

In other words, He knows it all.

Manda couldn't help but shudder.

The old goat said: "Since my father has given me help, there are some things that I don't need to say anymore. There is still a battle to come. Remember that sentence. You must never lose to Ares' followers again. There are some rules. Not even our father can do anything about it.”

Thinking of the rules, Manda suddenly remembered something: "Why did Cronus intervene in this war?"

Pan Shen smiled and said: "I don't know his purpose yet, but it is definitely not out of mercy! You must also beware of his followers."

After saying that, Pan Shen picked up the invisibility hat and asked: "Is the rent ready?"

"Ready." Manda quickly presented two boxes of gold coins.

"I don't know the date of your rental. You shouldn't have miscalculated, right?"

Manda shook her head repeatedly and said, "Absolutely not!"

Pan nodded and smiled: "In business, never deceive Hermes. This is a very serious sin."
