Give Me the Name of God

　　 Along the way, Joel has been trying to chat with the other guards, but they did not give a single response.

　　Waiting for the castle, Stanley patted Joel on the shoulder and smiled: "Young man, do you feel the glory?"

"My glory comes from your grace," Joel hadn't forgotten who the boss was, he stepped off his horse and knelt down on one knee, "I would like to serve in front of your saddle and crush the enemy's carcass with you." Extinguish the flames of hell."

　　 Stanley was startled, and raised his eyebrows: "Neither of these things are what I want to do."

Joel realized that he might have said something wrong, so he didn't say anything again. Stanley took him into a tower and made a gesture. Two guards brought wine cans and glasses. Joel wanted to come forward to help, but the guards Ignore him.

　　 "Sit down, let's have a drink."

　　 After a glass of wine, Joel looked at the other four guards. They all stood neatly behind Stanley, motionless.

　　 "They, don't come together..." Seeing the guards did not respond, Joel was a little embarrassed, Stanley smiled: "They don't like drinking."

　　 "They don't like me very much either." Joel laughed mockingly.

　　 "They like you very much, but I'm afraid you don't like their appearance. Have you seen them?"

　　 These guards have always been wearing heavy iron helmets. Joel has never seen their faces. Hearing Stanley's words, they may have hidden ills.

　　 Maybe they can't speak, and their appearance has been destroyed. Joel was imagining their ugly appearance, but saw Stanley wave his finger and a guard took off his helmet.

　　 Joel spit out the wine in his mouth, took a deep breath and said, "He didn't, he didn't..."

　　 The guard has no eyes, only two dark holes in the eye sockets.

　　 Stanley waved his fingers again, and the remaining three guards also took off the iron helmets. Some of them had no noses and some had no lips. The most common thing was that they had no complete skin on their faces.

Some have holes in the cheeks, through which you can see the teeth, some can directly see the cheekbones, and some even see the rotten brain, and there is almost no flesh on the face, only one is left. A black and yellow hole was on his neck.

　　 "He, they..." Joel stood up in shock, unable to speak a complete sentence for a long time.

　　 "Sit down, boy," Stanley pressed his palm down, motioning for him to calm down, "They are all living corpses, this is my first-order skill, now you should know which **** I am a believer."

　　 "You are, Pluto's..."

　　 Stanley nodded and said: "We have the same natal god, Joel Morais, tell me, do you want more glory?"

　　 Joel was stunned for a long time, his body numb with the rapid flow of blood.

　　 can you enter the stage? Can you become a true believer of ancient gods?

　　 originally thought that the dream had been shattered, but unexpectedly the opportunity was right in front of him.

　　Why does Stanley treat himself so kindly? What is his intention?

　　 Joel didn't dare to think about it, and knelt down on one knee and said: "I am eager, I look forward to what you give me..."

　　 "It is not my gift, but a gift from the gods. Finding good believers for our natal gods is my mission."

　　 Joel rolled his eyes and guessed Stanley's intentions.

　　 This may be a way to please the gods, or it may be a condition for him to advance.

　　 This is good luck that Joel could not imagine in his dreams. He said all the words of gratitude and drank two cans of wine with Stanley. As long as Stanley spoke, he was willing to kneel on the ground and kiss Stanley's boots.

　　 When leaving the tower, Joel, drunk, saw a girl standing in the cloister of the castle, with her hair crossed, wearing a dark red dress and cloak, enjoying the snow in the garden with her maid.

　　 She is so beautiful, not only the exquisite looks, but also another attractive thing, perhaps the slightly arrogant smile, or the slightly indifferent eyes.

　　 The girl noticed Joel's gaze, frowned and left the corridor. Joel wanted to chase her, but Stanley held her back.

　　 "Don't be so reckless, that is the daughter of the Viscount Lord, you were too rude just now."

　　 "Sorry, my lord, I'm drunk." Joel quickly stepped aside.

"I understand that aristocratic women always make people unable to look away. She is too far away from you. If you want to be close to her, you need more glory. The ceremony of entering the stage will be carried out in three days. Eat more and sleep more. Let the gods see your strong physique and full spirit."

　　 Joel leaned over and said: "Follow your wishes."

　　 Back to the bedroom, Joel couldn't sleep for a long time, and as soon as he closed his eyes, he could see the charming smile of the Viscount's daughter.

　　Poor Helena, in fact, you are also very beautiful, but unfortunately we are not suitable, only such a woman is worthy of me.

　　 Late at night, when the tavern had just closed, Worm felt that there was a tremor outside the door, and he quickly let Toka and the others hide.

　　 He opened the back door and saw a group of carts and horses standing in the doorway.

　　 This is the person sent by the earl. You don't need to ask to know their intentions. Worm didn't say much. He directly let them into the yard to move food, but when he looked back, he found that someone was already standing in the yard.

　　 Worm's heart shuddered, thinking it was the earl who had come in person, and when he came closer, he turned out to be an old friend.

　　 "I didn't expect your tavern to be so big, I couldn't see it the last time I came." Bruto put on a blindfold and smiled at Worm.

　　 Came to the bedroom and lit the fire. Worm served Pluto with bacon and wine. Pluto looked around and asked, "Where is Manda?"

　　 Worm hesitated for a moment and said, "He went to town and did something else."

　　 Pluto smiled and said: "You'd better tell me a little bit more information, I have to give the earl an account."

　　 Seeing that Worm was still hesitating, Bruto said, "Trust me, I won't do anything against you."

Worm repeated Manda's words to Pluto. Pluto meditated for a long time and said: "If you don't ask the earl, I won't say more. Remind Manda to be careful. The day will come to the tavern, he will discuss a major event with Gezak, and Manda must come back by that time, and..."

While talking, Ogg suddenly rushed in, stood tall in front of them, and chanted in a low voice: "The great prophet has made it clear to me that I will get closer to the gods! Ignite the wisdom of the prophet. Fire, the gods will give me more power!"

　　 Toka hid in the door, looking at Worm helplessly. Worm knocked Ogg over with a punch and dragged him back to the room.

　　 Back to the bedroom, Pluto sighed: "There is also ~www.readwn.com~ to send these people to other places, you know the Earl's temperament, he doesn't want you to have too many friends."

　　Warm pursed his lips. He wanted to change the subject, but suddenly he saw that there were more nail-sized dark purple spots on Bruto's face.

　　 "What's wrong with your face?"

　　 "If you eat something that shouldn't be eaten, you'll get better soon." Bruto gave a dry laugh, and then changed the subject.

　　 Outside the tavern, the punisher still hid in the ruins, grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into his mouth.

　　 "The believers of the Devil God have also come, and I know that something big has happened in Niujiao Town."

　　 Three days later, in the dark hut, Manda placed a statue of Hermes and arranged the altar according to the instructions in the cipher text.

He got rid of his irritable mood, and he was indeed qualified to be promoted. He lit the tail feathers of the phoenix, and the tail feathers lit up a dazzling fire, together with the claws of the double-headed eagle and the wings of the four-winged bat on the altar. Burning, in the billowing smoke, Manda read his oath:

"Son of Zeus and Maia, protector of merchants, travelers, shepherds, messengers of the gods, great Hermes, please look here, I will dedicate my flesh and blood to you, I pray for yours Strength, I pray for your blessing, please give me guidance, let me rise to the next level, and bring me closer to you!"

　　 He cut his palm and dripped blood into the sacrificial vessel.

　　 After a dozen breaths, a long-lost voice came from my ears.

　　 "I will take you up the steps, and I will give you strength."

　　 ticking!

　　 A drop of blood fell into the sacrificial vessel, Manda dared not open his eyes, fumbled for the sacrificial vessel, and drank the blood inside.

　　 He felt his body leave the ground, the flesh and blood turned into a dust, scattered in the breeze.
