"Manda Claude Sai, you should sincerely repent, you should sincerely atone, you should take a warning, you should remember the anger and majesty of the gods, you should..."


    "You are Hermes!" Manda took the statue and her voice trembled.


    The old man looked at Manda and continued to sing: "I am the messenger of Hermes and the most loyal servant of the God. I deliver his Oracle, his reward and punishment and his creed..."


    "I know, you are Hermes." Manda clenched the statue in his hand. He knew what it was for. It recorded the method of promotion to level 7.


    The old man stared at Manda for a long time, squatted down, frowned and said, "you are very boring."


    There are thousands of forms of gods. Let''s see which side he wants to show you. The old man on the altar is Hermes.


    Manda looked down and said, "I''m a very interesting person. In fact, this game is also very interesting. I wanted to play more with you, not that... I really didn''t expect you to see me."


    Hermes shrugged and said, "I''m here now."


    "I thought you would punish me."


    "Why should I punish you?"


    "I..." Manda didn''t know how to answer. He realized that Hermes''s idea might be completely different from what he thought.


    He looked at the statue in his hand, saluted Hermes deeply and said, "thank you for your kindness and tolerance."


    Hermes shook his head and said, "this is neither kindness nor tolerance. You deserve it."


    Manda was moved, but according to Pan''s previous statement, this statue should not be in Hermes''s hands.


    "Pan told me that the statue promoted to the seventh level has been lost."


    Hermes nodded and said, "it''s really lost. It''s lost in the secret kingdom of the ithaluans. Now Apollo has returned it to me."


    Manda said in surprise, "Apollo gave it back to you?"


    "Yes," nodded Hermes, "I had a misunderstanding with him before, and now the misunderstanding has been eliminated."


    Manda was even more surprised: "has the misunderstanding been eliminated?"


    "You don''t understand?" Hermes motioned to Manda not to kneel. "Sit down, my child, I''ll tell you a story,


    When I was just born, I did something that shocked everyone. I stole 50 cows from Apollo''s pasture. Do you know this? "


    Manda nodded and said, "I saw it in the divine spectrum."


    Hermes then said, "I think I did it perfectly, but I still left a trace. Apollo found me and asked me to hand over those cows. Of course I won''t admit anything without evidence. Guess what happened later."


    Manda replied, "Apollo found Zeus. Zeus asked you to hand over the cows."


    Hermes laughed and shook his head: "Human books are always so absurd. How could my father care about such a small matter? The real situation is that he opened his divine bow and aimed the arrow at my forehead. I am a newborn baby and certainly not his opponent, so I told him that it was a mistake. Now the misunderstanding has been lifted, so I returned the cow to him. Now you should know and resolve the misunderstanding What is the most effective way? "


    Manda was stunned. He could understand Hermes. Hermes advocated using his fist to resolve the misunderstanding, but Pan''s attitude made him very confused.


    He wanted to see Hermes'' expression. He was worried that Hermes was testing him. He just raised his head and lowered it. He almost forgot the rule of not looking directly at the gods.


    Hermes didn''t mind: "my child, raise your head and look at me."


    Compared with the cute teenagers before, an old man called Manda a child without the slightest sense of conflict. They just sat opposite each other like a real father and son talking.


    Hermes said, "the reason why Apollo and I had this misunderstanding was not Athena''s trick, but Apollo''s wrong understanding of me. Do you think he was really tricked? He just thought he was more suitable to take over the order of Olympia than me,


    He thinks that I have only one believer, and he has a secret kingdom. He believes that his kingdom can easily destroy my only believer. If this wrong cognition cannot be eliminated, no matter how I negotiate, even if I beg, I will not get his understanding, because I have no capital to negotiate with him at all,


    So I have to make him realize that he was wrong. I have to make you hurt him, my child. You did it. "


    "But pan Shen told me..."


    "Pan truthfully conveyed my words to you, but I lied to him."


    Manda was more puzzled: "why did you deceive pan Shen?"


    "To deceive Apollo."


    "I don''t understand..."


    "What don''t you understand? I don''t cheat Apollo. How can you win so easily?"


    Er... What a complicated problem.


    Yes, it was really easy to win.


    Hermes lied to Apollo? What does this have to do with Pan?


    Hermes knew Manda''s question: "Pan is very smart and very cunning. I love him very much. But since falling down, his temperament has become very cautious. If I tell him the truth, he may leak out news because of his panic. Apollo''s authority is very strong. He may have his eyeliner in a bright place. So I even cheated his son. He must have thought it! Ha ha ha ha ha!"


    Hermes burst out laughing, and Manda echoed.


    He wanted to know the mood of Pan Shen at the moment, and wondered if he would cry for it.


    Hermes took away his smile and continued, "I tell Apollo that you sincerely atone for your sins and will never resist. If I can''t deceive Apollo, he will be on guard, and his followers won''t be so stupid and reckless,


    You have also seen their fighting ability, not only the skills of Apollo, but also the talent of Artemis. Even if you can finally win, you will pay a painful price. I have cultivated you hard. You have managed all this hard. You cherish it and I cherish it. "


    No wonder the intelligence of the enemy was not online. It turned out that Apollo was cheated by Hermes, and the enemy listened to Apollo. The poor itaxiua people came and died with such confidence.


    "Hunting goddess on Apollo''s side?"


    Hermes said with a smile, "she is Apollo''s sister. They jointly guard the kingdom of itahuea, so the itahuea people are not as easy to deal with as you think."


    Manda is also worried about this: "if Apollo doesn''t stop, come back to me for revenge?"


    "I don''t rule out this possibility," said Hermes. "If he really dares to do so, I''ll let you take the soldiers to the secret kingdom of ithalua and have a good look. We''ll reason with them and in a way they can understand."


    "I captured several elders of itahuea alive and a group of women. What should I do?"


    "Women are at your disposal. There are too few women here. It''s very important to reproduce. Let their elders go. Some bad old men annoyed me. Tell them that this is my kindness to them and bring our kindness back to their kingdom."


    The atmosphere was so harmonious that Manda asked tentatively, "what if I had followed Pan''s advice, given up resistance and let myself be slaughtered?"


    Hermes smacked his lips and said, "if you are so stupid, I will let you live and die, and then cultivate another blood to replace you."


    Manda pursed her lips and felt a chill in her heart.


    "But I know you''re not so stupid," said Hermes with a smile. "You''re really like me. You''re more like me than pan. Pan told me about Odysseus. He was frightened. Odysseus is difficult to deal with. Try to avoid fighting him, but if you can''t avoid it, remember one thing. You''re my blood and your wisdom won''t be inferior to anyone,


    With regard to the war of Roma, I think you should know how to deal with most things. Remember one thing, the Lord of punishment and Cronus will never reconcile. Don''t worry about the alliance of their believers. "


    Hermes disappeared on the altar. Manda stroked the statue in her hand and quietly afterthought Hermes''s words.


    Enlightened and dignified coexist, wisdom and means coexist. Manda sees hope in him and is glad that she has made the right choice.


    But this also made Manda a little more defensive. If one day Hermes really wanted to calculate himself, I''m afraid he might not know it by the day he died.


    Of course, what is more important now is the statue.


    It''s going to rise to the seventh level. It''s getting closer and closer to the goal of eternal life.


    Know more languages and crack more ciphertext. Manda looked at the ciphertext behind the stone statue several times and cracked two sentences.


    "Gold skeleton balance, ruler of the Milky way." what is this? Sacrifice? "


    There is also a sentence: "where fairness lies, the two sides are willing." what does this mean? Effect of skills?


    Manda stroked the statue, and the more she looked at it, the sweeter her heart became. Until dawn, she reluctantly put it into the Jurassic Dragon Island.


    I was going to sleep a little longer, but now there is another important thing to do. He has to go to the temple to see the situation of the elders. Hermes asked them to let them go. If these guys are strong-natured, unwilling to be humiliated and die under the statue, it will be difficult to do.


    When she arrived at the temple, Manda found that her worries were completely superfluous. These elders were not strong. They were sincerely repenting and had a very pious attitude. They recited all night, and the prayers had been out of draft.


    "Great Hermes, please look here, please forgive our ignorance and stupidity, and forgive our recklessness and arrogance." every time he reads this sentence, savant will take the other four elders to salute the statue of Hermes neatly. Based on their sincerity, Manda decided to let them go today.


    He first ordered people to take them to the cottage hall and stand for almost two hours. Manda looked solemn, sat upright and looked at the people.


    After a long silence, savant boldly took the lead in opening his mouth: "Lord Claude, we received the oracle of the God of light last night. The God scolded us for our stupidity and recklessness. We are also aware of our mistakes. We apologize to the kind Hermes all night. We have been forgiven by the God. Here, we also sincerely apologize to you."


    Manda nodded with satisfaction, cleared her throat and reintroduced herself: "I am the messenger of Hermes and the most loyal servant of the God. I pass on his Oracle, his reward and punishment, his creed and his majesty. Do you really repent, the Ethiopians, the blood of the God of light and the once Trojan royal family?"


    Savant led the four elders to salute and said, "the gods can witness our sincerity."


    "Do you promise not to invade the sacred land of Hermes and hurt the believers of Hermes?"


    "We swear in the name of the God of light that we will never make such a mistake again."


    "You should repent sincerely, atone sincerely, take warning, and remember the anger and majesty of the gods. Remember?"


    "We keep it in mind, my Lord."


    Manda called the waiter and poured a glass of wine for each of them, as well as herself: "the misunderstanding has gone with the wind, the blessing of the gods is always there, and our friendship is always there. May the believers of the two gods never be enemies."


    After drinking the wine, Manda released the five elders and gave them two carriages and sufficient food to avoid being too embarrassed during the trip.


    After the elders left, Manda called a group of mountain eagles and asked them to continue to inquire about the movement in the mountain forest. He knew that there were many itaxiuya wandering nearby. If they were reluctant, they could only give them a ride.


    After everything was handled properly, Manda returned to the room and continued to crack the ciphertext. He had just transcribed the ciphertext on the stone statue onto the paper, but saw Medusa gently calling in her consciousness: "I don''t want to disturb you, but I''m afraid you forgot, my right eye..."


    As soon as Manda patted her forehead, she really forgot about it.


    The sixth level of cultivation is almost over, but Manda has not completed the contract with the gods. If she wants to be promoted to the seventh level, she must help Medusa find her complete head.


    Medusa''s sister once gave an oracle that her head was in the south.


    No, you shouldn''t let the five elders go.
