Give Me the Name of God
Chapter 449 The River of Oath Keeping
The River Styx, the River of the Oath Keepers, also known as the River Fury, is the fourth river in the underworld.
Crossing this river, Manda will go to hell.
After learning the sixth level skill, Manda had never done much exploration in the underworld. He knew that it was not suitable for mortals and how dangerous it was.
Except for the first battle with the three-headed dog, Manda never crossed the Acheron River again and always wandered outside the underworld. But who would have thought that today he would come to the bank of the fourth River Styx.
This means that Manda has successively crossed the Acheron River (River of Sorrows), the Lethe River (Lethe River), and with a high probability also crossed the Kchust River (River of Lamentation). This river eventually merged with the Acheron River. Confluence of the Keron River).
Is this true? Manda lowered his head and looked at his feet. His shoes were covered with dry dust from the underworld, not even a drop of water left. How could he have crossed so many rivers?
Medusa must be lying to herself. If she really crossed so many rivers, how could she not have any impression at all?
Could it be that I lost my memory because I crossed the Lete River (River of Forgetfulness)?
Impossible, Manda said to himself, I still remember that my name is Manda, I still remember my family, and I still remember the purpose of coming to the underworld. Drinking the water of Wangchuan will forget everything. I don’t have amnesia.”
Medusa seemed to be still lingering behind her, her soft voice lingering in her ears: If you don't believe me, just jump down. With me by your side, you won't be alone here.
Humph! Manda sneered and sat down on the shore, Don't jump!
Medusa still doesn't understand Common, but can understand Manda's actions.
Do you want to leave here? First you have to look back and see the path you have taken.
Manda sneered again: Humph, don't look back.
After sitting by the river for a long time, Manda calmed down and reorganized his thoughts.
First of all, you cannot jump into the river. This river may not be the Skettis River, but once you fall into the Skettis River, you will never be able to leave the underworld. You cannot take such a big risk anyway.
Secondly, you can't look back. Directly turning people into stone is Medusa's biggest threat. If you avoid this threat, Manda has the strength to deal with Medusa.
This is not because Manda swelled, but because Manda woke up. As long as you recall the narrative about Medusa in the Theogony, you should know that she is much easier to deal with than the three-headed dog.
The most direct evidence is that she died at the hands of a mortal, and the great hero Perseus chopped off her head.
There were countless heroes in the classical era, but none of them could be compared with the great hero Hercules.
The only person who is slightly closer to Hercules is Perseus. Perseus' granddaughter is Hercules' mother. In this way, Perseus is Hercules' great-grandfather.
They are both sons of Zeus, so they are also brothers.
Ignore the family relationship for now. As a great hero in the early classical era, Perseus' greatest achievement was to kill Medusa and use Medusa's head to complete a series of great deeds.
Perseus was a mortal at the time and could kill Medusa.
Among mortals, Manda's combat power is undoubtedly top-notch. As long as he takes adequate precautions, Medusa may not be able to do anything to him. What he needs to do now is to discuss business with her.
Manda doesn't want to stay in the underworld. Medusa must know the way to leave here. As for what conditions Medusa wants, everyone can slowly discuss it.
Thinking of this, Manda wrote a line on the stone: Tell me how to leave, and I will help you realize a wish.
Medusa floated from her left ear to her right ear: Little guy, who do you think you are? Why do you help me realize my wish?
Manda puffed up her chest and wrote on the ground: I am a person with status and status in the world. When we meet next time, I can bring you some sheep, some chickens, and some jewelry, if you need it. , it’s no problem to bring a man here...
Are you a king?
Manda wrote: Pretty much.
Okay, I will make an oath here to tell you how to return to the world. You must also make an oath to help me find my head.
Manda blinked. Regarding Medusa's head, there is no clear record in the theogony. Some said that Perseus gave the head to Athena, while others said that it was buried in the kingdom of Argos. Some say Athena placed Medusa's head in Zeus's Aegis shield.
Manda has seen the Shield of Aegis. He has not turned into stone, nor has he seen the head of Medusa. No matter which rumor is true, this matter is too difficult to complete. Manda does not want to agree, but Mei Tussaud was very insistent.
If you don't help me find my head, you can't leave here!
This is not something that can be done overnight, Manda said, and even if I want to help you find the head, you have to let me return to the world first.
I didn't ask you to complete it overnight. I can send you back to the human world first. You just need to make an oath here.
Is it okay to swear? This woman is too easy to deceive. Manda also swore allegiance to two kings. How much are those pitiful oaths worth?
Since she insists so much, then make an oath to her...
If you tell her, she can't understand the common language, so let's make an oath and show it to her.
Manda wrote the oath on the stone: I will find your head for you. This is the oath I made to you.
Medusa whispered in her ear: You have to say my name, the Gorgon who lives on the other side of the Ring River. My name is Medusa!
Manda wrote again, Gorgon who lives on the other side of the ring river, your name is Medusa, I will find your head for you, this is the oath I made to you.
Manda felt a tremor in her body, as if it came from Medusa. Medusa's body seemed to be entangled with Manda.
Manda had never cared about oaths, but she didn't expect Medusa to care so much. Her body was trembling violently.
Let's go. Medusa's voice was less sweet, but gentler.
Where to go? Manda wrote on the stone very vigilantly.
Don't you want to leave the underworld?
Take me away now? Manda wrote again.
Medusa brought her lips to her ear again: When do you want to wait? There will be food and water in my cave, as well as my warm embrace. Do you want to go?
I'm not very hungry, I'm not too thirsty, and I'm not that cold. You don't need to get too close... let's go.
Medusa took Manda to a rock and said softly: You have the power to pass through these rocks, right?
Manda shook her head and wrote on the rock: There is something wrong with my strength and I will go in the wrong direction.
Medusa's breath became warmer: There is no problem with your power, but you are not familiar with the underworld. Someone deceived you and let you enter the depths of the underworld. You only made a mistake once, you just lost your way. Follow my singing and you’ll be out of here soon.”
Manda groped for the cracks in the rock, closed her eyes, and followed Medusa's song into the cracks in the underworld.
These ancient gaps may be connected to the human world, or to hell, to the Narcissus Plain, or to the palace of Hades. Remember my singing, remember everything you perceive, followers of Hermes, Don’t ever get lost here again.”
Medusa's singing voice is beautiful, it would be nice if she were a little plumper.
Now open your eyes and see where this is.
Manda opened her eyes and was speechless for a while.
He was not even in the mood to write, because it was very energy-consuming.
He imitated Medusa's pronunciation and tried to spell out a sentence in the Amber language: What's the difference between here and the place just now?
Your accent is so strange. Medusa smiled, her sweet laughter could melt people, but Manda was not in the mood to appreciate it now.
Look at that river, is it still the Styx River?
Manda looked at the river in front of him. It seemed that the river was wider and the water flow was gentler than before.
Could it be that this is the Acheron River? Did you return to the Acheron River?
Then I heard Medusa say: Touch the rock wall and see what you can feel?
Manda stroked the rock, and this time, he really felt the breath of the world.
This is Qixing Mountain, this is Parrot City, this is Miaoyin City...continue to the north, this is Lianyucheng, this is the Royal Capital, and this is Tieshan Town!
Manda laughed loudly, this is the boundary between the underworld and the human world!
He took out the Queen of Heaven Talisman and wanted to see if he could still find any trace of Besa Liu. Suddenly, he heard Medusa saying fiercely: Throw away that thing! Stupid boy, do you want to be deceived again?
