Manda stood on the open grassland and listened to the teenagers praying loudly to Hermes. After the previous competition with sorense, five outstanding teenagers won the opportunity to enter the stage.


    Money and power are valuable, but at any time, people are the heaviest chips on the power scale.


    According to Manda''s plan, five ancient god believers will be developed every month in the future. A year later, there will be a team of 60 believers around. The remaining young people who are not loyal enough will be trained into excellent soldiers. With this strength, Manda will have the capital to fight against sorense one day.


    The teenagers recited their prayers over and over again. Manda''s blood was boiling. He wanted to see their advanced sacrifice with his own eyes, but Silva limped and ran over.


    "Sir, viscount Stanley is here. He said he wanted to see you."


    "Which Viscount Stanley?" there are many people with the same name. Manda knows that Stanley has been promoted, but he can''t be promoted to viscount.


    "It''s the knight of Niujiao town."


    Manda took a breath. Why is he here? How did he know he was in Tieshan town? How did he know his new identity?


    After a moment of panic, Manda calmed down and asked, "does he want to see me or the munchke knight?"


    Silva said, "he told the guard that he wanted to see the munchke knight."


    "Did he see you?"


    Silva shook his head and said, "Sir, how dare I see him? You told me that we have died once in Tieshan town."


    "That''s good," nodded Manda. "Tell Viscount Stanley that I''m far away and you don''t know where I''m going."


    Silva limped away. Manda sighed in her heart, "don''t blame me, old friend. You''re looking for munchke. What''s my business?"


    ……


    After closing the door twice in a row, Stanley showed a bitter smile and a bodyguard said, "Sir, why are people in Tieshan town so arrogant? He''s just a knight. We just broke into his manor, but he didn''t dare to resist."


    "Don''t be so impulsive. I smell the fireworks of the sacrifice," Stanley smiled. "This knight is not easy. Let''s find a place to live first and visit him later."


    ……


    Late at night, Pluto took a hot bath, carefully took care of his hair and beard, put on a dark blue Nightgown, and was about to drill into the warm quilt when he heard faint footsteps.


    This is not the footsteps of maids and servants. Their footsteps are not so light.


    Is that Manda? He lives on the third floor and sneaks to the second floor to do what?


    Yodora? What did she run down to do? It''s rare to have a chance to be alone. She should haunt Manda all night.


    No, footsteps come and go. Someone is looking for something in the corridor. He is not familiar with it.


    It''s an intruder!


    Pluto was very calm. He slowly opened the door and quietly came to the corridor. He saw a figure disappear at the entrance of the stairs.


    He went upstairs. Although he didn''t know his purpose, Pluto knew that the other party was a strong man. He had only one rank. I''m afraid he wasn''t his opponent, but at least let Manda be on guard.


    He carefully came to the third floor. The corridor was empty and no one was seen. Pluto''s heart hung down his throat. He knew he might die at any time, but he had no choice. It was his duty to guard Manda.


    Walking quickly down the corridor to Manda''s room, Pluto suddenly heard footsteps behind him.


    Cheated, the other party has been hiding in the dark, waiting for Pluto to to lead him.


    Bruto inhaled instinctively. He wanted to use the dragon breath. Suddenly he remembered that he was no longer a believer of radon. Fortunately, he still had some powder on his body. He suddenly turned around and sprinkled the powder on each other''s face. The other side was a man of medium build, with a wide hood blocking his face.


    But the hood couldn''t stop Pluto''s powder. As long as he took a sip, he would fall asleep. Unexpectedly, the powder had no effect on the man. He shook his fist and knocked over Pluto, raised one foot and was about to kick Pluto''s chest. Suddenly, Manda jumped out, stretched out his finger and stabbed the man''s eyebrow.


    When the man came to the third floor, Manda heard his footsteps. When Manda decided to fight, she didn''t intend to leave him a chance to live.


    Unexpectedly, the man was immune not only to the powder, but also to the physical attack of the golden finger. From his cold flesh and blood, Manda thought of the man''s origin. It was a living corpse.


    But the corpse also stretched out a finger and pointed to Manda.


    The fourth level skill of Pluto believers - guiding the way. As long as the living corpse hooks its fingers, it can pull out Manda''s soul.


    This is the huge gap between level 4 and level 3. In shock, Manda even forgot to dodge. Suddenly, someone downstairs sighed, "I didn''t expect it to be you."


    ……


    Standing downstairs is Stanley. He broke into the manor, but he didn''t want to conflict with the owner of the manor, so let the living corpse explore the way first.


    This time, Manda couldn''t escape. He asked Eudora and the fat cook to prepare a table of wine and food to catch up with his old friends.


    Stanley took a gulp of wine and said, "it''s still this taste. It''s really memorable."


    Manda said with a smile, "I''ll give you a load of wine as an apology."


    "Do you want to kill me? Do you think I''m the only one who misses your wine?" Stanley said with a bitter smile. "If the count tastes the wine, he''ll know you''re still alive and I''ll be in big trouble."


    "So we''d better not let him know." Manda poured Stanley another glass of wine.


    "I really admire you, Mr. nidali. After half a year''s absence, you have become a big man in Tieshan town."


    "I admire you more, viscount. You have become a well-known hero in the whole kingdom."


    "Stop flattering me. I came to Tieshan town to visit you, but you didn''t bother to look at me."


    Manda smiled, "you know my difficulties, and I don''t want to embarrass each other."


    "Embarrassment is inevitable. The count wants to see you."


    "You mean count gassack? You know I can''t see him."


    "What can he do? He wants to restore relations with yuanhaze valley. Who else can do it except you?"


    Manda thought for a moment and said, "do you want to see me or restore relations with the valley? These are two things. The second thing I can do."


    Stanley was stunned: "will leond listen to you? Do you say you are the master of the valley?"


    Manda shook her head and said, "he is the master of the valley, but he is my friend. I think a letter is enough for this."


    Stanley said with a smile, "I''ve done it. I''m good enough to make a job. I think Pluto''s situation is a little strange. Has he become a magic man?"


    "Er..." after looking at Pluto''s sad eyes, Manda coughed, "it should be said that it''s a wizard."


    Stanley laughed aloud; "I have to tell Lulian about it. Don''t mind. I don''t mean to laugh at you. She may be able to teach you some methods of practice."
