Among the tasks arranged by Hermes, Manda believes that it is the most difficult to investigate the position of the gods. It is the simplest not to lose to the believers of Ares. As long as we keep the brittle stone Valley, there is basically no possibility of defeat.

Now it seems that Manda is blindly optimistic. This task is not simple at all. The enemy did not pass through the brittle stone Valley, but directly attacked the Seven Star Mountain, and now he has probably won a victory.

Only two villages were washed with blood. Is this a victory?

It depends on the definition of victory or defeat.

Driven by the Seven Star Mountain, the surrounding villages are very rich. There are 500 or 600 people in each village. The blood washing of two villages means that Hermes has lost more than 1000 devout believers, and only more than 1000 enemies.

Judging from the sheer number of people, even if the enemy is completely wiped out, it is only a draw. If the losses further expand, it will become a complete failure.

Of course, the enemy\'s life may be more valuable with ares\'s blood, but the war damage of both sides can\'t be much different.

Some lords beat back the enemy at the cost of several times or even more than ten times the battle damage. They call such a battle result victory. Manda doesn\'t think so, because it doesn\'t conform to the principle of fair trade.

To regard war as a business, we must figure out the costs and benefits. Losing land is a loss, losing population is a greater loss, and the lost land can be fought back, but it will take at least more than ten years to replenish the lost population.

This is Manda\'s point of view, but now Manda is worried that Hermes has the same point of view.

If she is determined to be defeated, Manda will be punished. What kind of punishment will it be?

It\'s no use thinking about these. The top priority is to think of an appropriate strategy to let Stanley recover the defeat as soon as possible.

Manda drew a sketch of the seven star mountain on parchment. He was thinking about countermeasures. Suddenly, the Oracle ring on his finger lit up.

Pan Shen was looking for him, so he inferred that the matter was settled, and Hermes determined that it was a failure.

After brewing for a long time, Manda managed to think of a set of words. He arranged the altar and completed the sacrifice ceremony, but he didn\'t see the old goat until the white smoke dispersed.

What happened?

Pan Shen doesn\'t want to see himself?

He was abandoned by the gods?

It\'s just a temporary failure. There should be no such severe punishment!

Manda grabbed his hair and trembled desperately. After several deep breaths, he calmed down.

Pan should not have given up himself. He lit the Oracle ring.

But why wouldn\'t he see himself?

It should be that Hermes was still in a rage and pan didn\'t dare to meet himself.

In any case, this matter has been completely out of control. If it can\'t be handled properly, Manda can\'t imagine the next consequences.

He didn\'t dare to stay in the drawing city. He had to return to the Seven Star Mountain immediately.

Seeing Manda\'s sudden departure, leond was surprised. Manda was injured and had to carry the lion girl on her back. Leond kindly advised: "I know we will eventually become enemies, but that day is still far away. Stay here to recover from the injury and leave after you are cured. The believers of the Emperor will not be so mean. I will never take advantage of the danger of others."

But Manda had decided to go, and leond was helpless. He prepared some bread and dried meat for him and left his room.

In this world, integrity is a valuable character. Leond never advertised his integrity, but he didn\'t even want to spy on Manda\'s way through the underworld.

Maybe we will meet on the battlefield in the future, but Manda also believes that day will not come so soon.

Manda carried the lion girl into the underworld. Under the oppression of the lion girl, the wound on her back made Manda sweat.

Follow the familiar road through the dark Canyon and come to the Acheron river.

He found the most familiar rock, took off his gloves and stroked the lines on the rock.

The injury of the finger improved a little. Most of the wounds were scabbed, but the blood scab was a little thick, which affected Manda\'s touch.

It doesn\'t matter if there is a little influence. Manda is very familiar with the road to seven star mountain. He knows where the crack is.

Tearing the crack, entering the passage and shuttling for a long time, Manda left the underworld and returned to the world in a secluded alley.

It seems to be a residential area. When was there such a dense residential area on the seven star mountain?

Is it because too many people have moved in recently, and the poet has just built it?

Impossible. Looking at the mottled walls, these buildings have been for years.

This is not seven star mountain! Take the wrong path?

With a chill in her heart, Manda walked cautiously in the alley with the lion girl on her back.

First she felt strange, then she felt familiar. When she got out of the alley and came to the street, Manda was stunned.

Manda recognized this street, which people used to call Bishop\'s Avenue.

Go west is the cathedral, go east is the palace!

This is Wang Du!

Tactile affected, the export may have a little deviation, but such a big deviation is too outrageous! How could you wear it to Wangdu?

Kings are the boundaries of divine punishers. For Manda, it can be equated with nightmares.

Don\'t think about it. Leave quickly. Manda returned to the alley and tried to open the entrance to the underworld, but he failed.

All the processes are OK, but the entrance to the underworld doesn\'t appear. His skills seem to have lost touch with the underworld.

What\'s the reason? Is it because he is injured and weak?

It doesn\'t seem to be a physical problem. Every step of skills is fully done.

Manda was about to try the sixth level skill again when she saw two divine punishers coming in the distance.

The two divine punishers didn\'t cover up their breath. Manda smelled that they were both second-order divine punishing warriors. She wanted to use first-order skills for verification, but she stared at their chest for a long time, but didn\'t see the value of divine blood stone.

There should be something on their chest that blocks their view, or their clothes are too thick.

Of course, there is another possibility, but Manda doesn\'t dare to think in that direction.

Two kamikaze warriors came to Manda and asked, "who are you and where are you from?"

Manda deliberately made a nervous and frightened expression, lowered her head and said carefully, "my name is lidson. I\'m a businessman from the north."

This is the normal reaction of ordinary people when they see the divine Punisher. They thought the matter was over. Unexpectedly, the two divine punishers refused to let go: "who sent you here? Don\'t you know this is a forbidden area?"

When did it become a forbidden area? In Manda\'s impression, this is just an ordinary residential area between the palace and the cathedral. All the people living here are devout believers.

Did they find heresy here? Or discover the rest of Howitt\'s party?

Whatever the reason, Manda must find a suitable excuse: "my wife is ill. I want to take her to church to pray. I\'m not familiar with Wang. I don\'t know why I came here."

Don\'t mention taking your wife to a doctor. A doctor is equivalent to a wizard in this era. Looking for a doctor is tantamount to confirming the identity of a heretic.

A divine punishment warrior shouted, "all intersections are sealed. How did you get here?"

"When I came over, I didn\'t see the intersection blocked..." Manda didn\'t know how to explain.

"Don\'t you want to go to church? Come with us and I\'ll take you!" a divine punishment warrior pulled Manda\'s clothes.

Manda looked around. There was no one. It seemed that there was no need to continue to explain.

The two second-order divine punishment warriors do not need to use skills to kill them, and they can ensure that they can\'t make a sound.

A divine Punisher shouted, "come with me! What are you waiting for?"

The only problem is that the golden finger doesn\'t work. If you can\'t kill each other and let the two guys shout, you\'ll be in big trouble.

"I told you to hurry up, didn\'t you hear?" the punisher punched Manda, who covered her face and sobbed softly.

"You don\'t understand, do you?" another divine Punisher kicked Manda. Manda covered her stomach and cried in a low voice.

Let\'s use a dagger. It\'s more secure.

"Come with me now!" a divine Punisher came forward and grabbed Manda\'s hair. Manda suddenly raised her head and pierced each other\'s throat with a dagger.

Another divine Punisher was stunned. He just opened his mouth and didn\'t wait to shout. Manda pulled out the dagger and cut his neck.

"May your Lord take you to the kingdom of God." Manda drew a symbol of the sword of divine punishment on his chest. Just as he was about to leave with the lion girl on his back, he saw a divine Punisher appear at the entrance of the alley.

He was less than 200 feet away from Manda. At Manda\'s speed, he could rush to him immediately and cut his throat before he shouted.

But Manda ran desperately, but found that she couldn\'t run fast.

He is much faster than ordinary people. After all, he has the physical talent of sixth order believers, but his second-order skills have failed.

Before he ran a hundred feet, he only heard the divine Punisher shouting, "come on! There are heretics here, and some of us are killed in battle!"
