Give Me the Name of God

Manda couldn't figure it out. The skull in front of her was exactly the same as the skull on the golden skeleton scale.

Two reasonable explanations can now be made. First, this skull is not unique. Second, one of the two skulls is fake.

No matter which explanation is more reasonable, Manda must get this skull. He has never forgotten the powerful power of the golden skeleton scale to change fate.

The question now is how to convince Odysseus to give up the skull to him. If there is internal fighting at this time, the tragedy that has been staged countless times may happen again today.

Manda remained silent, and Odysseus spoke first: "I think the two treasures are of equal value, and I should choose first."

"Nonsense! The value of these two treasures is extremely different."

"Claudius, I know that your contribution was greater just now, but without me, we would never have found these two treasures."

"Without me, there's no way we would have found Putala!"

"I'm afraid there will be no end to these boring reasons!" Odysseus' tone became serious, "No matter what you say today, I will order that bracelet!"

"You said you wanted to make a decision? You want the bracelet? If you want it, if you want it... if you want it, it's yours."

What a surprise, Odysseus wants the bracelet, doesn’t he know the value of the golden skull?

Back in Drawsha City, he had tried his best to get those three weapons, but he might not really know what those three weapons were.

What is certain is that the situation in front of them is perfect. Manda wants the skull and Odysseus wants the bracelet. They each get what they need, put away the treasures and leave the secret room.

Next, it was time to find Kequen. According to Pudala's memory, he couldn't be sure of Kequen's whereabouts, but he knew the places where Kequen often hung out. They successively searched for three side halls, then the queen's bedroom, and finally found Ke Kui En in the main hall.

Unexpectedly, Kequen returned to the hall. He was checking the oil lamp and trying to find a way to leave the palace.

Putala shot down an oil lamp and the stone door was closed. Maybe the way to open the stone door lies in these oil lamps.

Cequon was not surprised by the arrival of Manda and Odysseus. He spent a lot of effort and walked upright in front of them, standing as straight as possible.

"I heard that you are looking for me." Ke Kuien spoke in a deep and rich voice. Although individual bytes were broken due to improper control, it was obvious that he was trying his best to maintain the image of the Pope.

As the highest-status man on this continent, this is the least he can do.

Manda directly stated his purpose: "I want to take you to the Holy Kingdom and make you the Pope again."

"I am the Pope."

"But now we have the Snatcher."

"Why do you want to help me?"

"Your Reaver is attacking our lands. I can't stop him, but I believe you can."

"Where is your land?"

"Romaru Country."

Kequen smiled and said: "Madessa attacked the Romulu Kingdom because Gaius III no longer wanted to accept the Lord's teachings?"

Manda also wanted to laugh a little. Ke Kui'en's voice always broke when he spoke, and his strange tone was somewhat funny.

"Gaius III has died a long time ago, and the IV, V, and VI are all dead. There are many kings in Romulu country now, and one of them is the archbishop of God's Punisher."

"The archbishop became a king?" Ke Kuien was surprised. "Has everyone forgotten the rules of the church?"

Odysseus said: "Those are just your rules. Your time has long passed."

Kequen looked at Odysseus and sneered: "I remember you, a believer of Athena. You seem to be a hero in the Book of Odes. I have fought against you many times, but unfortunately I can't remember it. Your name, I only know that you are the fastest one."

Odysseus has long been numb to similar taunts, and even Manda doesn't bother to laugh at him.

Manda said: "Let's talk about old times later. We want to negotiate a business with you now. We are willing to send you back to the Holy Kingdom. The condition is that when you take back the papacy, you will never use force against the Romulu Kingdom. "

Ke Kui En said: "I'm afraid this business is not easy to do. Do you want me to leave a promise or a contract? When the day I regret it, won't you be helpless to me?"

"I like your honesty, but since I'm here to do business with you, I naturally have my own methods." Manda took out a packet of medicine powder, "Take this packet of medicine first, and I will take you somewhere."

"Take your medicine? Why?"

"If you don't eat, you'll never leave."

"Do you know how to leave the palace?"

"of course I know."

"That's easy to handle." The Pope moved his shoulders. "Tell me the method and I can let you live. What do you think of this deal?"

Manda frowned and said, "I have been too lonely for more than ninety years. It is reasonable to tell a joke to relieve boredom, but your joke is really not funny."

Kequen pointed at Odysseus and said: "Go and ask him, ask him if I am telling a joke? Ask him if my joke makes him feel scared?"

Odysseus looked embarrassed, he was indeed a little scared.

Manda said: "It seems you don't want to do this business."

Ke Kui En said: "Do you have such qualifications? Ask that believer of Athena, do you have it? How many powerful helpers have he had around him? In front of me, he will either become a dead corpse or run away like a mouse. You Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to do business with me?"

Manda was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "Does the wound on your shoulder still hurt?"

Ke Kui'en's cheek twitched, and his expression was a little unnatural.

Manda took out Putala's silver bow: "You have fought with Putala for more than ninety years. Did you win? Do you think the way you escaped just now looks better than a mouse? We spent less than 100 yuan to deal with him. It’s only one day, and now I’m here to discuss business with you out of respect for you, in other words, I think highly of you.”

Ke Kuan gritted his teeth and clenched his fists: "Young man, you are so arrogant."

Manda said calmly: "I'll say it again, if you don't want to do business with us, you have to stay here forever. As for whether to keep your person or your body, it depends on our mood."

The two looked at each other, and Odysseus was behind him trying to resist the urge to escape.

Ke Kuan slowly let go of his fist and said with a smile: "You are talking about business like this, are you a believer of Hermes?"

Manda nodded.

"May I have your name?"

"Manda Claudesay, the lord of the southwest of Romulu Country."

"In such a poor place, a person like you has emerged, Manda Claudesay, I will remember you."

Odysseus felt a strange jealousy. After fighting against each other for so many times, Cequon never remembered his name, but in a few words, he remembered Manda's name.

Cequon took the powder and soon fell into a deep sleep. Odysseus walked to the throne and turned the gems on the throne one by one.

The exit of the palace is under the throne. The oil lamp can only close the entrance. The entrance cannot be opened inside the palace. On this point, Putala did not lie.

There are a total of twenty-three gems on the throne, and each gem must be rotated to a fixed angle. Thanks to Odysseus's careful search of Pdala's memory, otherwise even if Pdala gave precise instructions, the actual operation would not be possible. Mistakes can also be made along the way.

After turning all the gems, the throne slowly retreated, revealing an entrance to the underground.

Manda and Odysseus carried Kequon out of the palace, walked through the narrow crypt for a long time, and finally returned to the ground.

It was almost dusk, and they had just stayed in the palace for a day. The two of them greedily sucked in the fresh air, and no one wanted to recall the decayed atmosphere in the palace.

However, just between these few breaths, the exit of the palace suddenly disappeared.

Manda and Odysseus looked at each other for a moment, and they realized a problem at the same time.

The entrance cannot be opened inside, and the exit cannot be opened in the palace. Although they took away the two treasures, this characteristic of the palace does not seem to have changed.

Could it be said that the characteristics of the palace have nothing to do with the treasure? So will this palace still move?

Should I stay here, wait for a few days, and then go to the entrance for verification?

The two of them laughed in unison.

The palace was magical, but the temptation of curiosity was far outweighed by their dislike of the palace, and their time was tight.

Manda asked: "Are the pills enough?"

Odysseus nodded: "For two people, it's not enough. I really don't want to waste such a precious pill on him."

"How can this be called a waste?" Manda opened the entrance to the underworld. Odysseus swallowed a pill and followed Manda into the underworld.

…

A foreign object was stuffed into his throat, and Ke Kuin choked and couldn't breathe for a long time.

He opened his sleepy eyes and found that there was no light around him. He was so frightened that he sat up with a cry. This scene was too familiar. Could it be that he had returned to the palace again?

Could it be that he has always been in the palace? The encounter with those two people just now was just a scene in a dream?

Seeing the smiles of Manda and Odysseus, Kequen calmed down a little. With the faint light of the waves, he carefully looked at the surrounding environment, and a chill surged from his back to the top of his head.

"Is this hell?"

"This is the underworld," Manda shook his head and said, "Hell is on the other side of the river, and there is another river of flames to cross. Now I make two oaths to this river. First, as long as you are alive, you will not be with me. The two of us are enemies, and secondly, as long as you are alive, you cannot use force against Romuru Country."

"Sktis River, the river of oath-keeping," K'Quin looked at Manda and said, "Manda Claudesay, you are really ruthless."

"Don't say unnecessary words, tell your vows quickly," Manda urged, "You still have an old friend here, and I'm worried that he won't be able to restrain his anger towards you."

K'Quin turned his head carefully and saw Akira looking down at him.

"His Majesty the Pope, I really didn't expect to see you here," Akira leaned down and said, "Don't listen to him, don't make any oaths, stay here with me, I have a lot to say to you. .”
