In the smoke, the old goat appeared in front of Manda with his hands on his back.


    If it weren''t for the familiar smile, Manda even suspected that she had mistaken God. His figure was several times higher than before, and his robe poured down like water. The robe was inlaid with various precious stones, each of which emitted dazzling light.


    It seems that the great pan God has been reborn.


    Manda humbly saluted pan, who leaned over and helped him up.


    Manda was surprised. According to the ode, the gods could not be touched. The old goat hated Manda''s touch before he came back to life, but he didn''t expect to touch Manda''s limbs today.


    "Do you know why I''m looking for you?" the old goat smiled.


    "The way to promote me." Manda smiled excitedly.


    Old goat nodded, took out a stone statue and said, "do you know where this comes from?"


    "Was it given to me by the great Hermes?"


    "You are so clever." the old goat gave the stone statue to Manda. Manda put it away and asked tentatively, "have you been completely reborn?"


    The old goat nodded again.


    "You have seen Hermes, that is to say..."


    Pan Shen waved his cloak and wrapped Manda in it. He smiled and said, "my father has known the news of my rebirth. He will explain to the Lord of the gods and help me get back my position on Mount Olympia."


    "You are about to return to Olympia!" Manda saluted again. "Congratulations, great pan God. Olympia will always shine with your brilliance. You will return to the list of gods with your own strength with persistent faith and strong will. Your great deeds will be preached forever, both in the divine world and in the world."


    The old goat frowned and said, "why do you say it''s entirely by my own strength? You have also made a lot of efforts. It''s an artifact you took back for me."


    "That''s all... Coincidence, I really didn''t do anything..."


    Looking at Manda''s tangled expression, pan Shen smiled and said, "don''t you just be afraid that I will trouble you? Don''t worry, my father and I have thought of the right reason to deceive the Lord of the gods."


    Manda took a breath, looked down at the stone statue in her hand, looked up at the old goat, wanted to say something, but stopped talking.


    The old goat naturally understood his mind and took out a piece of parchment from his arms: "do you want a translation?"


    Manda nodded.


    "Still want to get the sacrifice from me?"


    Manda smiled and said, "am I asking too much?"


    "It''s a little greedy," the old goat touched Manda''s head, "but there''s no way. Who let me owe you."


    "You don''t owe me anything. It''s all my sincere prayer."


    "I have untied the ciphertext on the stone statue, but I can''t write the translation on paper, engrave it on wood, draw it on stone, and leave any readable records. This is Hermes''s order. Once I violate it, I will be severely punished."


    Manda pursed. "That means I have to remember."


    "Yes, remember every word."


    It was very difficult. Manda concentrated on waiting for the old goat''s instructions, but the old goat didn''t say the content of the translation.


    "The process of sacrifice, I''ll tell you after you get the sacrifice."


    This old fellow, are you still afraid that I can''t break my promise? Just say the price directly.


    "You haven''t told me the price of the sacrifice yet?" asked Manda carefully..


    "I''m very sorry to tell you that we can''t buy the sacrifice this time."


    "What kind of things do you need to exchange?"


    Pan Shen smiled and said, "don''t always think about doing business. This sacrifice doesn''t belong to the world. You have to go to a very dangerous place and take it back with your own hands."


    "Very dangerous place..." Manda raised her head and looked at the old goat with clear eyes.


    Pan looked down at Manda and said expressionless, "do you want me to get it back for you?"


    Manda burst into tears and said, "thank you, great God, how can I repay your kindness!"


    "When did I promise you?" Pan Shen looked at Manda helplessly. "It''s not that I won''t help you. According to the contract between the gods, I can''t go to some places."


    "Can''t you go? Can I?" Manda immediately changed her face when pan refused to help.


    "You can go, but you should be well prepared. I give you ten days to prepare. You should prepare enough food and water for three days. You should carry it on your back. It can''t be too heavy."


    "Well, I can hide my food in Styx island."


    "When you get to that place, don''t use Styx Island, otherwise you can''t leave alive. You have to prepare a lot of weapons. The stronger the better, the more the better."


    Can''t use Styx island? Manda looked blankly, "where is it?"


    "Then you will naturally know that in these ten days, eat and sleep as much as possible. When you get to that place, you won''t be able to sleep much." the smoke rises and the old goat disappears.


    Manda sat by the bed, carefully reflecting on the words of the old goat. This promotion made him feel very dangerous.


    What kind of sacrifice does not exist in the world? Why did Hermes set such a high promotion threshold?


    Can''t an old goat lie to himself? Did he want to kill people for fear that tephon''s affairs had been exposed?


    Manda looked at the stone statue in her hand. Judging from its value, this stone statue can''t be fake. You might as well try to crack the ciphertext.


    After staring at the stone statue again and again, Manda gave up the idea of cracking it, not because of the complexity of the ciphertext on the stone statue, but because there was no text or a word on it.


    Are you kidding me? Isn''t this a stone statue for promotion?


    What about the oracle of Prometheus? Do they play with me together?


    Not really? Two Gods work together to calculate a mortal?


    It should not be that the old goat has given too much help. Even if he is suspicious, he should at least keep a little trust in him.


    Ten days is not long. Get ready first. Manda took out all the divine blood stones and called the poet and guatel to make a batch of light blood blades.


    He called the cook again and asked her to make a batch of dry food.


    "Be light and small. You''d better eat in one bite."


    The cook was silly: "my Lord, I can''t think of what this is."


    Manda pinched the cook''s fat face and said with a smile, "then think carefully..."


    Before she could take her hand off, she suddenly saw the lioness push the door and enter. With a roar, Manda almost didn''t get under the bed.


    "Animals, even such a woman!" because of the backlight, Manda could not see the lion girl''s face, but heard her teeth clenching.


    The cook was scared to tears. Manda asked her to jump out of the window and escape, but the window was too small and the cook was too fat to get out.


    The cook was crying and the lioness was approaching step by step. Manda blocked the cook behind her, stretched out her hands and shouted, "I have difficulties. Listen to me."


    Lion * * Sen smiled and said, "tell me, who is the most shameless man in the world? If you answer correctly, I''ll kill the most shameless man. If you answer wrong, I''ll kill you!"
