Give Me the Name of God

Late at night, Manda pushed away the girl beside him, entered the underworld, and came to the Crispy Stone Mountain.

He was awakened by the urgent message from the Minister of State. He knew what the other party wanted to say without reading the letter.

"Sheltai sent a letter of surrender to Leander and made Leander a grand duke. You should know your friend. This temptation is enough for him to give up resistance."

Manda looked dull and said: "What do you think I should do?"

The Minister of State took out Leander's letter and handed it to Manda: "He said that you are arrogant, stubborn and unreasonable. He hopes that I can persuade you to accept his suggestion and continue to maintain the relationship between the southeast and the southwest."

"How do I keep it going and send my family there?"

The Minister of State spread his hands and said: "If you have read history, you should know that hostages are a common tool for forming alliances between nobles."

"Maybe it's because I haven't read enough books. In the history I've read, the weak will send hostages to the strong when they seek asylum. Compared with Leonde, am I weak? Who should send hostages to whom? Go hostage?”

"Compared with Leond, you are strong, and compared with Shelty, you are weak. Shelty can accept Leond, but he will never accept you. If you want to fight Shelty, you must have an ally."

"I need an ally, but I don't need a baby that only cries. When he cries, I have to feed him. How long will I feed him? Today he wants my family, and tomorrow he wants my food. He will need a good general in a few days, and I have to consider sending you there. When will this end?"

Lesio sighed and said, "Are you going to fight Shelty to the end?"

"It's not my plan, it's just that I have no choice. This day will come."

Manda stood up to leave, but Lesio was still making his last effort: "Think again, do you think they are really your family? I can understand the friendship of fighting side by side for many years, but they have no blood relationship with you, don't Confusing a good subordinate with a real family member.”

Manda turned around and said: "There are three things I must tell you. First, they are my family. Second, their safety can threaten me. Third, I will not accept any coercion. Get some rest early, Lacey." Master Ao."

Trying to maintain a stable situation under any circumstances is Lesio's talent and nature.

Let the southeast and southwest take care of each other and contain Shelty's actions. This is the safest approach at the moment.

But what's the point of doing this? In exchange for a few years of stable life? After Shelty has completely eradicated Bucken, then focus on defeating the southwest and southeast?

Of course, with a few more years of buffering, Manda will accumulate more strength, but Shelty will not stop and wait for Manda to develop. There are two things that Manda will never be able to change. One is the barren land and scarcity in the southwest. population, and the second is Leander's comfort-seeking character.

If it weren't for Typhon's persecution, Leander wouldn't even want to leave the valley. Give him a few more years, and he might not be able to accomplish anything in the southeast.

The steady stalemate will only widen the gap. Even if there is no capital for a life-and-death showdown with Shelty now, he must at least make his life a little more uncomfortable, and at the same time, Leonde must be taught a lesson.

Manda traveled back to Qixing Mountain and quietly came to the door of the Lion Girl, preparing to give her a surprise.

When he opened the door, he found a surprise right in front of him.

The Leo woman didn't sleep, and everyone didn't sleep either.

Roma had a pile of gold coins in front of him and looked at Manda with an embarrassed look on his face. He kept gesticulating in sign language as if he wanted to explain something.

Eudora quickly stood up and saluted Manda.

Moira covered her lower body with her hands, her face as red as a tomato.

The lion girl was the most calm. She had lost all her clothes a long time ago. Her face did not turn red, and her heart did not beat. She spoke righteously to Manda: "Give me ten gold coins, and I promise to get the money back."

Manda covered her mouth and said with tears: "I have been gone for so long and experienced so many things. You, you, have never cared about me at all... I should have sent you to the southeast as hostages!"

This group of women disappointed Manda, and he went to Pluto's room in anger.

Pluto didn't sleep either. When he saw Manda walking in, he waved his hands and said, "Don't get too close. This medicine is too powerful."

"Successed so quickly?" Manda assigned Pluto a task three days ago, but she didn't expect Pluto to be so efficient.

He carefully put the powder into the bag and sighed: "It can't be considered a success yet. Excellent doctors will find traces of poisoning, and the poison I made can kill at most two people."

"It's not impossible for two people. If it really can..."

"It's not safe. Half a day after these two people die, the effect of the medicine will lose its effect, and the poison will be poisoned if you touch it. You have no chance to poison. The uneaten poison must expire within a day. , otherwise it will leave flaws, give me another two days, I have found the trick."

Two days later, Manda entered the underworld with poison. When he came out of the underworld, he had reached the junction of due south and southeast.

This is a forest, about ten miles to the south, is a scout camp, with more than seventy soldiers in the camp.

Manda was not in a hurry to leave the woods. He observed the surrounding situation and dug out a silver coin from under a tree.

The reason why he wears it so accurately is because Dunison left a charm here in advance, which is equivalent to leaving a mark for Manda.

He put on his flying boots and soared rapidly in the air. As soon as he saw the shadow of the camp, Manda immediately landed on the ground. Scouts are elites in the army and must be cautious.

Their camp is very simple, but it does not mean that the defense is lax. Although there is no one on duty around, the scouts usually set up secret posts near the camp.

It is not difficult to deal with the hidden sentry. The difficulty is that Manda cannot kill the sentry. To be precise, he cannot kill anyone directly. If it is just to kill people, he will not take risks for a scout troop.

With her strong sense of perception, Manda easily discovered the hidden sentry on the left side of the camp, and determined the blind spot of the hidden sentry's vision. Manda climbed into the scout's camp.

Luckily tonight, there was almost no one in the camp. It seemed like they were on a more important mission. Leonder thought about surrendering every day, but little did he know that Shelty would kill him whenever he got the chance.

Smelling the smell, Manda quickly found the granary in the camp. More than seventy scouts did not need much food. There were a few sacks of wheat in a tent, enough for them to eat for several days.

Manda took out the poison bag from her arms and was about to take action when she suddenly heard a heavy snort.

Oops, I was careless, there is a person sleeping here.

Manda really didn't expect that someone would sleep in the granary. The man was lying in the middle of the sack, sleeping very soundly. He glanced at his chest and saw that he was still a third-level believer.

A third-level believer appears in the scout camp. No need to ask, he must be the camp commander.

It is really rare that the battalion commander did not accompany the soldiers on the mission.

Why is he sleeping on a sack? Is this some kind of quirk?

Killing a level three is nothing more than a matter of one finger. The battalion commander will not even have a chance to wake up and will die in his sleep.

But Manda couldn't do this. As long as there was a wound in this camp, all the previous efforts would be wasted.

Wait a little longer, wait for him to wake up and leave?

No, the poison has already seen the wind. After two hundred breaths, the poison will dissipate, and then the poison will be untouchable.

Ignore him and just poison him!

Just as Manda opened the sack, her heavy and steady breathing suddenly disappeared.

The battalion commander opened his eyes, he was awake.

He spotted Manda and looked at each other for a moment.

Manda looked helpless. As long as the battalion commander shouted, this operation would completely fail.

Unexpectedly, he didn't shout. He pulled out his short sword, made a tactical roll, and rushed in front of Manda.

Believers of the Hunting Goddess are extremely flexible in the forest. Believers of the third level and below are generally not his opponents in the forest. He believes that a soldier who comes to attack the camp cannot be of a higher level.

As the strongest combatant in the scout camp, he rushed towards Manda with confidence. Manda hugged him and started sucking him.

Suck with your fingers.

Without breaking the skin, Manda took twenty breaths and sucked the battalion commander clean.

The battalion commander, who had lost all his powers, lay motionless on the ground, without even the strength to speak.

Manda grabbed a few poison pills and stuffed them into his mouth. The poison had the same shape as wheat, had no peculiar smell, and melted in his mouth.

After dealing with the battalion commander, Manda quickly stuffed the poison into each sack. At least seventy breaths had passed since the poison was released.

Manda climbed out of the camp with the empty bag. After climbing out of the sight of the dark sentry, more than fifty breaths had passed.

With no time to think, Manda quickly flew into the air. After flying for a certain distance, he threw the poison bag out and set a fire, burning the bag to ashes.

Ashes were floating in the air, but Manda hadn't finished yet. He took out Pluto's special powder and carefully scrubbed all the places that had come into contact with the poison.

Judging from the time, the poison should have dispersed. Can this trick deceive Shelty?

Manda wasn't sure either.

It doesn't matter if he can't be deceived. The days are long and Manda has plenty of time to deal with him.

Manda felt extremely comfortable and was about to open the entrance to the underworld when she suddenly felt a scratchy throat.

Being sick again, he coughed up a few more pearls.

…

The battalion commander used his last strength and crawled out of the camp. He wanted to shout, but his throat felt like it was stuffed with cotton and he couldn't make any sound.

He climbed into the sight of the secret sentry and raised his hands to ask for help. Two sentries rushed out, helped the battalion commander and asked about the situation.

The battalion commander struggled for a while and suddenly began to vomit violently, with dark yellow paste spurting out from below.

One sentry was sprayed all over and was too frightened to move.

Another sentry exclaimed: "Blight, the blight of the southeast."

The two were stunned for a while, and the sentry who was sprayed all over began to vomit violently.

…

Sheltai, who was in the royal capital, received the news and sat on the throne looking pale.

"Is it really an epidemic?"

Dwight said: "Their battalion commander went to a nearby village to collect food. After he came back, he slept in the granary. The soldiers thought he was too tired and didn't ask any questions. When the battalion commander woke up, he fell ill and died not long after. The army's The medical officer went to check and found that more than seventy scouts all died of the same epidemic, exactly the same as the situation in the southeast."

"Another punishment from the gods..." Shelty licked his lips and felt cold all over. "Let our army retreat ten miles, block all the main roads, cut off all communication with the southeast, and the medical officer, who has been in contact That medical officer’s people were all put to death…”

Xia Jisuo said from the side: "Your Majesty, the envoy from the southeast is still waiting to see you."

Shelty's face became even paler: "Kill him, don't use a knife, use a bow and arrow, no one is allowed to touch him, kill everyone who touches him, and burn his body together with his residence!"
