Give Me the Name of God

Chapter 686 The stomach pouch of the palace

Putala verified it carefully and found that there was indeed no aura of the Lord of Divine Punishment on the divine blood stone, so he put the divine blood stone back into his body.

The process of putting it back on was very smooth. The believers of Apollo are indeed very skilled in medicine. Odysseus put back the blood stone and rested for a day before slowly starting to recover. But it only took Pudala a few dozen breaths. , the divine blood stone has already taken effect in his body.

The first thing to recover was the function of converting divine power. Through the eyes of insight, Manda could see the divine power surging in his body again.

Next came the recovery of the skill. A pale yellow light surged out of Putala's palm, and he pressed the light on the wound on his chest. The one-inch-long wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Odysseus whispered: "This is his sixth level skill. It can heal trauma in a very short time. He has basically recovered."

Manda nodded and said to Putala: "Now it's time to fulfill your promise."

"Don't worry, I will never break the oath I made to the God of Light." Putala bowed deeply to Manda, "I will teach you how to find the exit of the palace now."

Manda was startled. This was slightly different from the content of the agreement. The content of the agreement was that Putala helped them open the stone door and allowed Manda to leave with the former pope.

But now it has become a matter of teaching them to find the exit of the palace.

Manda was confused, but luckily he didn't show it because he still didn't know what the concept of exit was.

And Odysseus had no objection to this. His expression was calm and natural, as if this was the original agreement.

Find the exit and open the stone door, it seems that finding the exit is more advantageous...

The three of them passed through more than a dozen stone doors one after another. Putala sniffed from time to time and said, "Can you smell it? The smell of some rotten matter. This smell comes from the corpses underground. Some are human and some are animal. It's It doesn’t matter who it is, what’s important is that this aura comes from outside the palace.”

Outside the palace? Could it be that when the stone gate is closed, there is another exit from the palace?

Putala specifically explained this: "The stone gate is the entrance to the palace. It can only be opened from the outside. The exit is just the opposite. It can only be opened from the inside. There are thousands of entrances, but there is only one exit. After entering the palace, if the entrance Once the door is closed and there is no one to answer the door, it will be even harder to leave the palace than to reach heaven.

Kequen has been fighting with me here for more than ninety years. He also wanted to leave the palace, but he didn't know where the exit was. Although someone had opened the entrance over the years, he didn't know which entrance would be opened and when. would be opened, but he never found the right time. "

Sure enough, they got a big advantage. According to Prada's description, the exit and entrance of the palace are inconsistent.

But according to the previous agreement, Putala only needs to help Manda open the stone door, even if he has fulfilled his promise.

He could go out from the exit alone, go around to the entrance and open the stone door. Although it was a bit troublesome, it was a huge difference compared to exposing the exit to Manda.

Opening the stone door can only be regarded as a one-shot deal. If they enter this palace again, Manda and Odysseus may still be trapped here.

But knowing the location of the exit is completely different. Odysseus knows how to enter the palace. No matter whether it is a restaurant or a hall, he can enter the palace smoothly as long as he finds an entrance. If he knows the location of the exit, it means Now that Odysseus has achieved freedom of entry and exit, he will never have to worry about being trapped when he enters this palace in the future.

What was the reason that allowed Putala to make such a big sacrifice?

He didn't dare to leave the palace for fear of disobeying Apollo's orders?

Leaving the palace a few steps and acting near the palace, although it violated Apollo's order, doing such a move under forced circumstances was acceptable in Manda's view. No matter how ruthless Apollo was, he would not Punish Putala for this mistake.

But exposing the exit of the palace is equivalent to giving Manda and Odysseus the opportunity to enter the palace again, which is equivalent to greatly increasing the risk of the treasure being stolen. In comparison, such a price is too heavy.

No matter how stubborn Putola is, he is after all a demigod who has lived for more than five hundred years, and it is impossible to weigh the pros and cons clearly.

Is there another possibility?

Odysseus's expression has not changed at all from beginning to end. For this old villain, no matter how much advantage he takes, he will not write it on his face, but Manda has another speculation. Odysseus It is possible that Putala's memory has been tampered with.

If Putora remains in the state of an eighth-level demigod, Odysseus' skills will most likely be ineffective against him.

Although the sacred blood stone is sealed, the physical talent may still be there. Pudala can resist Odysseus' forgetting skill. As long as he is always vigilant, other skills should be no problem.

Under Manda's verbal attack, Putala's psychological defense collapsed. After taking out the blood stone, the remaining physical talent was probably gone. Odysseus used this short opportunity to tamper with Putala's memory.

This inference reasonably explains the current situation, and the insidious Odysseus will most likely make such a move. In any case, this is definitely not a bad thing for Manda. The three of them passed through several more stone doors and came to Arriving at a dark room, the rancid smell inside gave Odysseus the urge to vomit.

Manda's condition was not bad. This was the smell of rotten meat. He had eaten a lot of rotten meat in his previous life. The smell was not pleasant, but it was not disgusting either.

"This should be the basement of the palace, right?" Manda's eyesight was far superior to that of mortals, and could even rival some gods. However, there was no light at all in this room, and he could only make some guesses based on the smell of the air.

Putala shook his head and said, "This is the stomach pouch of the palace."

Gastric pouch? Does the palace have a stomach pouch?

Manda was very surprised, but he remembered Akira's words: The palace needs food.

Perhaps this palace houses some unique life form.

Putala opened her long bow and used her first-level skill to fire an illuminating arrow. Where the arrow passed, Manda saw a sticky and dirty stone chamber. The lower room of the stone chamber was a bottomless pool.

To be precise, it's not a pool, it's a pool of slime. Countless corpses are floating in the viscous liquid. The viscous liquid is dark yellow, with bubbles surging in it from time to time. There are animal corpses and a few human corpses in it. , some corpses were in complete shape and relatively fresh, while others were swollen and ulcerated, covered in foam, and it was impossible to tell what kind of animal they were.

Is this the stomach of the palace? Is that dark yellow liquid the gastric juice of the palace?

This time, Manda felt a little uncomfortable.

"The palace wants to eat, and I also want to eat. Whenever the palace stops moving, it will use its way to capture some prey. I don't know what its way is, but I can find some fresh food here, Don’t take too much, don’t starve the palace.”

After saying that, Pudala shot another arrow, and Manda saw a spacious door on the opposite wall.

Putala said: "This door is the mouth of the palace, close to the stomach of the palace. If you push this door, you can walk out of the palace. This is the only exit of the palace. When you find Ke Kuien, you can take him with you." Let him get out of here, but be sure to remember your oath and not let Kequen harm my people."

Odysseus asked, "What is the way to open this door?"

Putala said: "You don't need any method, just open the door and go out. But after you walk out, I'm afraid you will never find this door again. This is the exit. There is no way to open the exit outside the palace."

Odysseus shook his head and said, "I think you are a little less sincere."

"If you don't believe me, you can open the door and go out and try."

"Try?" Odysseus sneered, "Didn't you say you wouldn't be able to come back if you left?"

"You know how to open the entrance. You can come in again after you go out. If you think this is not safe yet, you can let one of you try it and leave the other here."

This sounds fine. Manda has flying boots and can fly over the slime pool, so he should go on this trip.

Putala shot another arrow, and with the light of the arrow, Manda came to the door.

He put his hand on the sticky door, and suddenly heard Odysseus shout: "Wait a minute!"

Manda smiled. He turned around and looked at Pudala. He had no intention of opening the door.

"If I open this door, I can never come back, right?"

Putala sighed and said: "I'm too lazy to tangle with you, Odysseus, you should know me, you should know my devotion to the gods. I just made a promise to you in the name of the God of Light, even if Even if the sky falls and the earth falls, I will not break my oath.”

Odysseus knew what Pdala was like, and he believed that Pdala would not bring shame to Apollo, but he felt that this matter was always a little unreasonable, but he could not explain what was unreasonable.

But Manda has already found the crux of the problem: "The palace needs to eat, you need to eat, and Kequin also needs to eat. Where does Kequin's food come from? Did you give it to him?"

Pudala frowned and said: "Kequin's food also comes from here. He knows that this is the stomach pouch of the palace."

"He looks for food from here. The exit is right here. Why doesn't he go out from here? Didn't you say that? He also wanted to leave."

Pudala shook his head and said, "He doesn't know this is the exit."

"It's been more than ninety years and he hasn't tried once? He is the all-powerful Pope, doesn't he even have the courage to try once?"

"Maybe he's not as brave as you think."

Manda smiled and said: "I'm not as brave as you think. I don't even dare to try Kequen. I can guess how dangerous it is behind this door. You tricked me into opening the door because you wanted to take the opportunity to kill me. Then use your demigod strength to kill Odysseus, right?"

Odysseus heard this and stepped back two steps: "Pudala, you have changed!"

Pudala shook his head and said, "I have never changed."

"How dare you break your oath to Apollo."

Prada was quiet for a long time, then suddenly raised his head and said: "The gods can't hear my vows at all! Everything that happens in the palace, the gods can't sense!" Prada kept shaking her head and said, "My vows don't count, the gods can't hear them. No mortals can hear it, only you two can hear it, and I won’t let you leave alive!

I will bear your grievances, I will bear your curses, I will bear everything, and all of this has nothing to do with the gods.

I won't let you leave, I won't let Kequen leave, anyone who breaks into the palace will die! "
