Give Me the Name of God

Leo's only fantasy about the archbishop did not come true. When Rungshen breached the cathedral, no one knew the whereabouts of the archbishop, and she disappeared with him.

There are two possibilities. The first possibility is that the archbishop escaped, but just at dusk, Fadev, the senior deacon of Ice Rock City, had dinner with the archbishop. Where could she go in such a short period of time?

Then there is another possibility left. King Bayer and the Archbishop are the same person. In other words, Leo had a very special experience.

Longesen comforted Leo and said: "I heard about you and the archbishop. Please rest assured that if she is not pretending to be King Bayer, we will definitely be able to find her. I just asked the God Punisher here, They said they had never seen King Bayer and the Archbishop appear at the same time. I also found some women's clothes and accessories in King Bayer's bedroom, but this does not prove anything. There is still a one in ten thousand hope."

Leo looked at Longson angrily: "General, we have known each other for many years, and I remember that you didn't speak so viciously before! Did you become... after Lord Lessio died?"

Longgesen said with a cold expression: "Don't you think it's disrespectful for you to mention a deceased elder in this tone?"

Leo nodded and said: "Let's all be decent and let's end this matter."

Leo turned to leave when he suddenly heard Longgesen shouting: "There is one more thing I forgot to tell you. There are many love poems in King Bayer's room, and your name appears in many sentences!"

Leo gritted his teeth and moved forward in the cold wind. He didn't want to continue arguing with Longerson.

Longerson's voice was so loud that it could be heard from two streets away. No matter whether he won or lost the argument, it was Leo who suffered the loss.

The deacons behind him were trembling in the cold wind as they followed the footsteps of the holy archbishop.

The reason for trembling is not from cold or anger, but from holding back.

Looking at Amado's green face, Leo gritted his teeth and said: "Laugh, laugh happily!"

The seven deacons covered their faces with their robes, and after a period of twitching, they calmed down.

After breaking through the castle, Leo and Longgesen quickly eliminated the remaining enemies and took complete control of Ice Rock City. Their only regret was that they failed to capture King Bayer.

It's too difficult to catch him, he can turn into anyone at any time, and what's worse is that he can show up as anyone.

In this regard, Rungersen's strategy was to continue to close the city gates and issue passwords to important personnel, changing the passwords every day.

This is a typical military management model, and Leo feels that it is obviously inappropriate to use it to manage a city.

Cerdan supported Longesin because King Beyer still had an army of more than 6,000 people outside the city, and Rome's army was still on the way. Special management methods could be adopted before the war was over.

Amado supports Leo, but now that people's hearts are unstable, excessive methods will provoke a popular uprising, which will instead give King Bayer an opportunity to take advantage of.

Everyone was arguing, and Holna stepped forward to persuade him: "You are so ridiculous about Gildan, get Manda back first."

…

After listening to Chuyter's description, Lungessen came to the Archduke's castle. He had never heard of believers in the God of Celestial Bodies, nor did he believe that the castle would really take off. He thought it was some kind of illusion or other deception. The method is also consistent with the identity of a second-level believer.

Five hundred feet away from the castle, most people's joints became tight and stiff. At three hundred feet, Blind Duck had lost the ability to move. At about two hundred feet, Lion Girl and Cerdan could no longer get closer to the castle. One hundred and fifty Up and down, Chuitt stopped here.

Longerson looked at Leo: "Is it okay?"

Leo remained silent. He had always claimed that he was a fourth-level divine punishment warrior, but judging from the current situation, his level was higher than Chuitt's.

After following Longerson for a while, Leo's steps became more and more difficult. When he came to the wall of the castle, he seemed to have reached his limit.

Longerson could still barely move, but when he came to the door, he found that the guard standing at the door like a stone statue had disappeared.

"I said this was a cover-up!" With his status as a sixth-level believer, Longgesen forced his way into the door. The moment he walked through the door, he realized that he was in the wrong place.

He carefully withdrew, helped Leo on the side, and said with sweat on his face: "Let's get out of here."

Leo asked, "What's in it?"

"Nothing at all."

"Why are you so scared?"

"I realize now that nothing is so scary..." Longerson's teeth kept shaking as he spoke.

There is nothing in the castle, including objects, including light, including sound, absolutely nothing.

This absolute and extreme nothingness made Longgesen feel unprecedented fear. He felt that he would be swallowed up by the absolute void at any time.

He led Leo faster and faster, and when he saw everyone, he said with a serious expression: "The castle is not here, and you should never get close to here."

Horna asked: "Where is Manda?"

Lungerson shook his head: "I don't know. If he is really here, I'm not sure if he is still alive."

…

In the weird light, Manda opened her eyes.

There was darkness in front of him, with only the night dimly filtering through the window.

Did you just dream? Why is that light so real?

The fire in the fireplace had long been extinguished, and the candles on the lampstand had burned out. Manda didn't know how long he had slept. He rubbed his sore eyes and sat up, looking for something to light a fire. In this kind of situation, If she has to endure the darkness in this situation, it will bring back some bad memories for Manda.

But when he picked up a piece of firewood, bad memories had been brought back.

The tools to start the fire are hidden in the Styx Island. The island cannot be opened, and there is no open flame in the entire castle. What else can be done with this piece of firewood?

The easiest thing to think of is to drill wood to make fire. This is the beginning of the nightmare.

According to the records in the cave, Manda tried to drill wood to make fire more than 4,300 times in his previous life, but never succeeded. This also forced him to eat raw food for 82 years.

This memory made Manda feel extremely bad. Just as he threw away the firewood, an almost imperceptible beam of light struck from behind his head again.

This is exactly the same light as in the dream. This is not an illusion, but the gaze of some god.

Who can see themselves here?

There is only one most reasonable answer.

This maverick god came more than once, and each time he took one look and left without talking to Manda or giving any hints.

What does he want to do? Testing Manda? What else can be tested in Manda now?

Maybe he wanted to see if Manda was crazy, maybe he thought the extremely flustered Manda would make a mistake, maybe he just wanted to test Manda's patience.

The feeling of gaze slowly faded away and the god was leaving.

But Manda's patience was exhausted. He stepped forward, grabbed Bayev's hair, and poked his golden finger into his neck.

The feeling of gaze came over me again, and finally the voice of the God of Celestial Bodies came to my ears.

Manda was very excited. This was the first sound he heard since the castle went up to heaven.

"Don't be impulsive. If my only bloodline dies, you will never be able to leave here."

Manda responded in her heart: "Can I leave while he is alive?"

"At least you still have hope."

"The hope is too slim, I have lost my mind." As he spoke, Manda used his golden finger to cut a small incision on Bayev's neck.

The God of Celestial Bodies didn't respond. He didn't seem to care about Manda's threat.

Manda was not polite and slowly increased the length of the wound. More and more blood flowed out. The God of Celestial Bodies finally responded: "Do you have to do this? Do you have to anger me?"

Manda stopped temporarily: "Tell me what to do? I'm willing to follow your advice."

"Pray to me and give a god the respect he deserves."

"I have prayed to you countless times, and every time I prayed to you very reverently."

The God of Celestial Bodies smiled: "Don't use the word piety casually. If you use it wrongly, it will become a kind of blasphemy. You have never had any piety towards me. You just want to seek a chance to escape."

"I think asking God and being ungrateful are two different things."

"Put aside your current situation, have you ever respected me from the bottom of your heart?"

Manda thought for a moment, and the words "I have great respect for you" were on her lips and almost blurted out, but Manda swallowed them back because the only blood of the Celestial God was still bleeding.

He first tore off a piece of cloth to bandage Bayev's wound, and then slowly replied: "I respect every god, but I know very little about you. I don't even know how to recite your prayers." Honor your name.”

"This is true, Manda Cloudsay, a believer of Hermes, do you think I am very special?"

"Your skill is indeed very special. This skill creates a," Manda didn't know how to describe it, "a world that does not belong to the human world."

The God of Celestial Bodies laughed again, and there was no sarcasm in the laughter. He was very satisfied with Manda's answer: "Not only does it not belong to the human world, but it also does not belong to the divine world. This world only belongs to you and the user of the skills. God, I am the only one who can do this, don’t I deserve your respect?”

Manda knelt on her knees and closed her eyes tightly: "I respect you very much. This sentence does come from the heart, but I don't understand one thing. Such a powerful skill should not belong to a second-level believer."

The God of Celestial Bodies was silent for a long time, and this question seemed to touch upon His pain.

Maybe this is not the time to ask such a question, but Manda believes that this topic can resonate with the God of Celestial Bodies. If there is resonance, there will be ideas. If there are ideas, there will be needs. If there is needs, there will be business. If there is business, there will be ways to leave here. .

The God of Celestial Bodies spoke: "What else can I do? Let alone a sixth-level believer, even if my believer reaches the fourth level, what awaits him will be the encirclement and suppression of the gods. My father will not let him go. I My younger brother will not let him go, and even my mother cannot tolerate him. This is the only way I can protect him."

It seems that the God of Celestial Bodies has many stories. Manda was about to take this opportunity to bring the topic to business, but unexpectedly, the God of Celestial Bodies released the bargaining chip first: "If I teach you how to leave here, you will do it for me." Do something?"

Manda thought for a moment and said: "I will try my best to protect the safety of Grand Duke Bayev."

This is the truth, not a blank check to perfunctory the gods. There is no harm in keeping Bayev, he can exert a very powerful function.

The God of Celestial Bodies saw Manda's thoughts: "In name, I protect him, but in fact, I use him as a jar to store skills. I take it out and use it when needed. Am I right?"

Manda quickly explained: "You misunderstood me, I am not such a vicious person..."

"Instead of letting you torture my believers like this, why don't I increase the stakes a little more and give you both of his skills? What will you do for me?"
