Give Me the Name of God

Things in the divine world are left to the gods, and matters in the mortal world are left to mortals, but Manda is currently caught between gods and mortals.

Manda understands the methods of gods and the temperament of mortals. It is too difficult to find a path that satisfies both parties.

Demands that are unacceptable to mortals are reasonable and reasonable in the eyes of gods, such as a hundred sacrifices.

From the perspective of the gods, their thinking is: Demeter has more than a hundred sacrifices in one month, why can't I have it?

From the perspective of mortals, their thinking is: The God of Agriculture gave us a good harvest, what did you give us? Why should I offer sacrifices to you?

The gods will think at this moment: I don’t take away, I just give. I can take everything away from you at any time.

A mortal would think at this moment: Instead of pleasing a god who can harm me, why not believe in a god who can protect me?

The gods will think: Mortals who are not pious to the gods should die.

Mortals would think: We must survive.

Lord of Divine Punishment: That’s right.

Manda rubbed her forehead, trying to find a way out of the cracks. She thought for three days in a row but couldn't come up with a result.

On the third night, he heard a voice while half asleep: I didn't receive any sacrifices. It seems you didn't understand me. I have to give you a little warning. I'll give you a small plague first. At least one city’s life will be taken away.”

Manda jumped out of the quilt and prayed to Hermes quickly, but Hermes did not respond.

How to do this? Cash in a hundred sacrifices to this god?

First of all, Manda doesn't know who this god is. The only thing he can tell right now is that his voice is relatively delicate, and he is most likely a goddess.

There are countless goddesses on Mount Olympia, including six in the main god class alone.

Offer sacrifices to all six goddesses, a hundred sacrifices to each god?

What should we do if the Lord God did not do it?

Wait until Hermes finds out the identity of the other party before offering sacrifice?

You can't do this.

There's something inherently wrong with the idea of ​​offering sacrifices, a god who has done nothing but just threatens to get a hundred sacrifices.

If such a thing could come true, what else could gods be expected to do for mortals? What awaits mortals will be the never-ending threats from the gods.

The most important thing now is to figure out where the plague will appear and on whom it will appear, and to deal with the source before it spreads.

This task can only be completed by Ogg. Manda went to Qixing Mountain overnight and asked Ogg to seek help from the great prophet.

Ogg presented a roast chicken to the great prophet. Manda always felt a little shabby. For such an important thing, at least a few sheep must be sacrificed.

Unexpectedly, the great prophet liked the roast chicken cooked by the cook so much. He ordered Ogg to eat the roast chicken, and then asked Manda to return to the capital to wait.

The other party chose to attack in the royal capital?

Although this is in line with the arrogant temperament of the gods, is it a bit too risky to do so?

The royal capital is under the protection of Hermes. Anyone who reveals any clues will be severely punished by Hermes. If it is just to give Manda a warning, the price is a bit too high.

Is this an oracle from the great prophet, or is Og just talking nonsense? Doesn't he just want to cheat and eat a roast chicken?

Ogg was steadfast in his oath, and Manda returned to the royal capital despite doubts. He immediately issued three orders.

One is that all the people in the royal capital stay at home and are not allowed to go out for a month.

Second, all medical officers searched from house to house. Anyone who found signs of the disease would be sent to the south of the city to live intensively. The south of the city is where the nobles live, with the smallest population density. However, once the epidemic spreads, these pillars of the country will be fatally threatened. What should we do then?

Then we can only replace another batch of pillars.

Manda is already a demigod and has long taken the life and death of others lightly.

The third order is that any medical officer who finds a patient suffering from the epidemic will be rewarded with one hundred gold coins. Fair dealing is the basis for success.

As soon as the government order came out, the medical officers were full of enthusiasm. In less than two days, they arrested more than 500 patients.

Manda looked at the files and found that typhoid symptoms were the most common, accounting for more than half of the cases, followed by digestive symptoms, accounting for 20% of the cases.

The other symptoms were quite different. A few people with rashes were said to be epidemics, and Manda believed them.

There were also a few pockmarks that were also said to be epidemics, and Manda was a little suspicious.

There were four other bald men who were also said to be plagues, and Manda became furious.

Is baldness considered a disease?

The medical officer explained: All four members of their family are bald. I suspect this is contagious.

This is obviously hereditary.

After reading the dossier, Manda could not draw any conclusions, so he had to put these people under custody first. On the third day, a doctor asked to see him and said that he had brought the patient to the mansion.

Manda was horrified and asked: What are you bringing the patient here for?

The medical officer was also very nervous: Sir, we have never seen that person, but he is not an ordinary person. He said that he brought real disease patients, and he also said that he was the only one who should get the reward.

Although he became a demigod, Manda wasn't sure if he was immune to disease, especially those from the divine realm.

What's more, his family still lives in the mansion.

But this doctor dared to shout in front of him, so he must not be an ordinary person. If he were to be driven away like this, I would lose a rare talent.

Manda drove everyone to the back garden and met the doctor alone in the front hall. The doctor was a middle-aged man with a beard under his thick hair and deep wrinkles on his face, marking the marks of vicissitudes of life.

When he saw the two patients he brought, Manda understood why the medical officer said he was not an ordinary person.

The patients were two young people, a man and a woman. They were sealed in crystal clear ice, and even the fearful expressions before they were frozen were clearly visible.

It was August now, and the capital was still far from freezing. This ice obviously came from the skill of this healer.

What's your name? Manda asked casually, turned his hand away, and secretly grasped the Eye of Insight.

My name is Lacius. Following the guidance of the great prophet, I brought two disease patients from Frostflower City to you.

It turned out to be a follower of Prometheus. Manda had just received the news three days ago that the god was about to release the disease. In less than three days, this man brought the patient from Frost Flower City in the northernmost part of the kingdom. The royal capital shows that his strength is above Ogg.

What surprised Manda even more was that he could neither see the opponent's divine blood stone nor the operation of the opponent's divine power. Could it be that the opponent was not a mortal?

Manda remained calm and continued to ask: You said these two people were infected with the epidemic. Is there any evidence?

Lacius fumbled on the ice for a moment, and the woman's clothes in the ice fell off.

There was a wound more than five inches long on her back. The wound was open and filled with black hair.

Lacius groped for a while more with the ice. The ice around the wound thawed, and the black hairs rolled and squirmed like insects.

Not like bugs, this is bugs, thousands of bugs living in this woman's wounds.

Lacius took his hand back, and the bugs were frozen again, motionless.

This is the black velvet worm from the depths of the forest. It is the source of the disease sent from the God Realm.

The source of the disease turned out to be bugs. Manda was somewhat skeptical, but Lacius did not explain much. He raised another key question: The source of the disease comes from the forest. You should know who the god who released the disease is.

There are many gods representing the forest, and Pan is one of them.

But the most famous is Artemis, the goddess of hunting among the twelve main gods.

Artemis also had authority over disease, and she was always dissatisfied with Hermes' rule.

There is no doubt that the god who releases the disease is Him.

Lacius stroked the ice cube and said: As long as one worm gets into the body, it will turn into countless worms after one night, eating the person into an empty shell. This is a provocation from the gods. Messenger of the gods in the world, you will how to respond?

The other party actually knew Manda's identity as a demigod, but there was no need to be surprised. Manda's identity would definitely not be hidden from Prometheus.

Do you have a cure for this disease? Manda asked.

Lacius shook his head and said: If there is a way, I don't need to bring them to the royal capital.

Are these two still alive?

Alive.

I know some witchcraft, are you willing to help me? Manda smiled, Believers of the great prophet must be willing to save innocent mortals.
