Give Me the Name of God

In the Book of Priests, first- and second-level believers are called extraordinary ones, third- and fourth-level believers are called majestic ones, fifth-level believers are fearless, sixth-level believers are outstanding among people, and seventh-level believers are called outstanding ones. The first-level believers are saints, and the eighth-level believers are mortal gods.

Upgrading to a third-level believer means that Manda breaks away from the ranks of ordinary believers and has the strength to dominate.

Kunta spent a whole day studying Manda's promotion ceremony. Not only did he read Manda's translation, he also carefully compared it with the original text and picked out two deciphering errors.

Through divination, Ogg determined that the most suitable date for the sacrifice was two days later. According to Kunta's calculation, after the sacrifice was successful, Manda would have to rest in bed for at least ten days.

What a pity, Manda sighed, I'm afraid I will miss Baron Claudesay's second business deal.

Ogg smiled and said: His bad luck has not yet dissipated, and the business is destined to not be successful.

And Baron Madsen, I have to prepare him. If he can't see me for more than ten days, he might think that I'm letting him go.

Manda went to Baron Madsen's mansion and told him that she was going on a long trip. Just as Manda imagined, Madsen was a smart man, and smart people didn't like to ask too many questions.

He only cared about one thing: When can I get the salt delivered?

Manda smiled and said: You can send the salt to my manor at any time, but don't sell it in the town until I come back.

Madsen likes this kind of honest person: Let me make it clearer, even if these salts are discovered by Claude Sai and Pedros, they have nothing to do with me.

Manda nodded and said, Yes, if they want to cause trouble, just come to me.

Where's the cost of buying salt?

Half for each, I brought you, and besides that a gift from Lord Pedros.

Manda robbed two thousand gold coins from the caravan, and he gave 500 to Madsen. This was regarded as his information fee. As for the twenty carts of goods he robbed, including grain, wine and spices, Manda wasn't going to share it.

Madsen has not yet received the news that the caravan was robbed. This is related to the honor of the two families. Claude Sai and Pedros kept the news very tightly.

You...really succeeded?

I didn't succeed, Manda shook her head. It was the goddess of misfortune who sent them a surprise.

To be honest, Madsen didn't dare to ask for the money. He just wanted to be a behind-the-scenes person with peace of mind. He didn't even want to confront Claude Sai in the business field. Naturally, he wanted to hide as far away from this kind of armed conflict as possible.

But looking at Manda's sincere eyes, he realized that he had to get the money even if he didn't want it. Manda is a person who pays attention to etiquette and respectability. It is a serious matter to reject his sincerity.

Seeing that the other party accepted the gold coins, Manda smiled. As the gods said, fair trade is the most important rule. According to Manda's understanding, only those who have shared the benefits together are true allies.

I have a friend named Worm who will guard the manor for me. If you receive news that the caravan is setting off again, you must tell him, Manda warned carefully, This time, we want salt.

…

Back at the manor, Manda left everything to Worm and moved to the west house to recuperate her energy.

Two days later, the altar of Hermes was completed. The Poet and Guatel compared the small stone statue and led a group of teenagers to carve a human-high statue for Hermes. Quinta followed the Book of Priests According to the request, the altar was arranged accurately.

Manda knelt in front of the altar and began to pray devoutly. When Kunta arranged the sacrifices, Manda saw the miraculous transformation of the copper-shelled snail.

He always thought that this thing was just a shell, but he didn't expect that a pair of tentacles protruded from its copper shell. It was alive.

Two copper-shelled snails crawled on the horns of the golden-horned bullfrog and the scales of the silver-scaled python, leaving a patch of mucus under them. The gold horns and silver scales slowly melted in the mucus, and a thick mist rose. .

In the thick fog, Manda recited prayers loudly, her vision became blurred, and her ears became silent. Manda seemed to have entered another world.

A familiar voice sounded in the sky: Come on, I've been waiting for you for a long time.

…

Pedros sent a messenger early, and it took ten days to go from Tieshan Town to Blue Bay. He thought he could wait for the caravan coming to Blue Bay, but ten days later, he only waited for a man with two temples. The grizzled old man.

My lord, please introduce yourself first. My name is Yaman. My friends from Blue Bay asked me to come and discuss business with you.

The old Lord was unfamiliar with the name Yaman, but Claude Sai was somewhat familiar with it.

You once took refuge with Viscount Sorens, right?

Old Yaman nodded.

Claude Sai recalled for a moment and said: I remembered, you are from the Valley of Resentment!

The old Lord was so frightened that he jumped behind Claude Sai. It was rare for him to be able to jump so far at his age.

Don't be nervous, I used to be a subordinate of Earl of Grudge, but as the Baron said, I later took refuge with Viscount Sorens.

Claude Sai shook his head and said: But I heard that you were killed and burned to death in the village.

I am a demigod, the only messenger of Hydra in the world. How could I die so easily? Old Yaman said with a smile, I just changed my life. Don't talk about me all the time. Let's talk about it first. Talking about our business, the reason why friends from Blue Bay trust your lord so much is because you are a rule-abiding person. But now you ask us to deliver the goods to Tieshan Town, feeding people and paying taxes along the way. , I’m afraid this is a bit against the rules.”

The old Lord said: I have already explained in the letter that we encountered bandits and were unable to reach Blue Bay safely. We are willing to compensate for the loss and even pay twice the price.

Lao Yaman said: This is not a matter of money. If you want to change the rules, you must at least be sincere. I'm afraid it won't work with just a letter. Some things need to be discussed in person.

The businessman from Blue Bay wanted to invite Pedros to Blue Bay for an interview, but the old Lord did not dare to take the risk. If something went wrong, he would definitely take care of him on the way.

When he was in a dilemma, Claude Sai stood up and said, I'll go with you.

Old Yaman nodded and said: Very good, Lord Baron is very sincere.

But the old Lord didn't want his son-in-law to take risks. He asked Claude Sai to sit down first, then poured a glass of wine for Old Yaman, and explained humbly: I think you should know that the robbers we encountered were very cruel. , he still has some connections with our family, and we don’t want to have anything to do with him...

Don't worry, I know the group of robbers you mentioned. They are my old friends in the valley, Old Yaman said with a smile as he took a sip of wine.

The young man in your family is called Manda. He is a little clever guy, but his strength is only at level one. There is also the weirdo who can spin silk. His name is Worm. He is a worm, and he is only at level one. The two of them almost joined forces. Kill me, but that's just because I was careless,

The woman who can fly and roar is called Holna. She is the most difficult to deal with. She is a demigod like me and is the only messenger of the Sphinx in the world. In order to deal with her, I found a threesome. As a helper, now it depends on your sincerity.

More updates will be added over the weekend. Thank you readers for your support.
