Sphinx leaned against the wall and watched Manda clean the cabin carefully.


    He always thought the boy was playing tricks, but he couldn''t see where his tricks were.


    What did he do under the bed? Why did he go so long?


    Sphinx was about to take a look when he saw Manda dragging a huge body out from under the bed.


    "Look what this is! There''s a bear under the bed! No wonder the smell here is so bad!"


    Sphinx smiled and said, "I''ve seen you eat raw meat more than once. Sometimes I think you''re no different from the beast. Do you really hate the taste of the beast?"


    "It''s not my disgust, it''s God''s disgust. It''s God who can give you pearls, not me!" Manda threw the bear outside the wooden house and leaned panting against the wall.


    Sphinx shook his head and said, "I remember the bear has been eaten up. It shouldn''t be so heavy."


    "Not for you. It''s another thing for me. Look how big that bear is!"


    After cleaning up all day, the wooden house was clean and bright. Manda smiled at Sphinx and said, "beautiful goddess, would you like to have dinner with me in the temple?"


    "Take you for dinner?" Sphinx said ferociously. "Call your God quickly. When I get the Pearl, you will be free."


    His temper is really grumpy.


    Manda set the altar of Hermes on the flat stone and began to pray silently to pan.


    After waiting for a long time, pan didn''t respond. Manda looked at Sphinx helplessly: "if God can''t hear my prayer, you can''t get the Pearl you want."


    Sphinx smiled, "I said, your prayer is not loud enough for me. How can Hermes hear it?"


    "You mean you have to make a sound?"


    "This is the rule. It belongs to the rule here. The gods will never hear the silent prayer."


    Is there such a rule?


    Manta felt that sphinx was lying. He wanted to hear the prayer, so that he could break the connection between Manta and the gods at any time and prevent Manta from saying something he shouldn''t say.


    It''s not a clever way. Manda can easily disagree.


    He clenched his hands on his chest and recited loudly: "the great pan God, please look here. I''m in trouble and need your help..."


    Sphinx said angrily, "why pray to pan? Why not Hermes!"


    "Don''t you know me very well?" Manda looked back. "You should know that I have always contacted Hermes through pan."


    Sphinx walked behind Manda and said coldly, "I''ll warn you again. Don''t talk."


    Then he put his right hand on the back of Manda''s head.


    He really didn''t know that Manda had been in contact with God pan, which also proved that God pan and Manda could avoid his sight when they met, and indirectly proved that God Pan''s strength was above him.


    After the war of divine punishment, pan became a seventh order God. As long as he can come here without limitation, it should not be a problem to defeat Sphinx.


    But pan Shen is very likely to be limited by his strength. If he comes here with only one or two percent of his strength, it will take some trouble to escape.


    In this case, we have to judge the situation. If we have the opportunity to escape, we naturally have to go all out. Manda has also made corresponding preparations. If we don''t have the opportunity, we have to stabilize the Sphinx first, let pan go back safely, let himself survive safely, and wait for Hermes to find a way.


    After reciting the prayer several times, Manda heard Pan''s voice: "is that you, Manda? Where are you? Why can''t I see you?"


    The altar was empty, and Manda underestimated the Sphinx.


    He only allowed verbal communication, but did not allow the gods to watch. At the moment, pan saw only a black fog on the bluestone slab.


    The situation has changed. You can''t expect to escape. You have to tell pan Shen your situation first.


    Manda responded in her heart: I am an unknown place, which should belong to tifong. I was kidnapped by Sphinx. He is right behind me. He wants 20000


    "Tell me where you are?" Pan Shen was very anxious. "Is something wrong? You should at least make a sound!"


    No, pan can''t hear it.


    Manda underestimated the Sphinx again. This is not his caution, but his means. Pan can''t hear Manda''s voice. Manda must speak!


    Pan Shen, who could not hear his voice, became more and more nervous: "wait here first. I''ll tell my father."


    God pan wants to leave, can''t let him go!


    Manda said, "great pan, I''m here."


    "Where are you?" Pan Shen finally heard Manda''s voice.


    "I''m in a strange place, by si..."


    Sphinx suddenly grabbed Manda''s neck and said fiercely, "don''t say my name!"


    Pan said, "is there anyone else around you? Is he hurting you?"


    Pan can''t hear the voice of Sphinx and feel his existence. Manda must re-examine the current situation.


    He begged Sphinx to loosen his neck, gasped for a long time and said, "I''m in the hands of a strange man. He may kill me at any time. I need your help."


    "How can I help you? At least you have to tell me where you are!"


    "I need 20000 pearls to carry..."


    Sphinx grabbed Manda''s neck again: "bastard, don''t you want to live?"


    He used a lot of strength, Manda''s face turned blue and purple. When Sphinx released his hand, Manda covered his neck for a long time and beat his chest.


    While beating his chest, he quietly took something out of his clothes and held it in his hand.


    Pan Shen was almost crazy: "don''t annoy that man, let him stop hurting you, don''t say anything else, tell me how to give you 20000 pearls?"


    Manda gasped, "after three days, put the Pearl into the Styx island."


    "Which Styx island?" Pan sold Manda three Styx islands.


    Manda didn''t answer pan Shen''s question: "remember, it''s 20000, one can''t be less..."


    Before he finished, Sphinx interrupted the contact between Pan Shen and Manda. Pan Shen called for a long time, but there was no reply.


    At the same time, Hermes suddenly woke up from his sleep, rubbed his eyes and said, "Jurassic? What is Jurassic?"


    Before fighting the Lord of punishment, Hermes asked Manda to hold his back. He gave Manda a spell.


    The spell didn''t work, and Hermes didn''t take it back.


    This is the most powerful spell that Manda has ever had. Manda places all her hopes on this spell. He can get in touch with pan, which proves that he can get in touch with Olympia. With the strength of Hermes, this spell will play a role.


    The spell did work, but it was seriously disturbed. Manda kept repeating "Jurassic Dragon Island" in her heart, but Hermes only heard the word Jurassic.


    "This is Manda''s voice. What does he mean by Jurassic? Where is he? Why can''t I feel it?"


    Hermes was talking to himself. Suddenly, pan came to the temple in a panic: "father, the big thing is bad. Manda was caught and the other party asked for 20000 pearls."


    Hermes frowned and said, "speak slowly. Who caught you?"


    Pan Shen shook his head and said, "I don''t know."


    "Where did you catch it?"


    Pan Shen still shook his head.


    Hermes was dissatisfied: "why don''t you know anything?"


    Pan Shen said, "the other party controls Manda. Manda doesn''t dare to speak. He doesn''t seem to know where he is."


    "Did you give him the Pearl?"


    "Not yet, Manda said he would put it on the Styx island in three days."


    "Why put it into Styx island?"


    "I also don''t understand. Maybe the other party forced him to do so."


    "Three days, it''s a little difficult. If I had a few more days, I should be able to find the place..." Hermes squeezed his chin and thought for a moment, "first prepare 20000 pearls and give them to each other in three days."


    "What if the other party won''t let go of the Pearl?"


    "Then give it again. Save Manda''s life first."


    Pan Shen was about to get the Pearl when Hermes asked, "do you know what Jurassic means?"


    "Jurassic? Jurassic, Jurassic..."


    Pan Shen thought for a long time and suddenly said, "Jurassic Dragon Island! This is the first Styx island I sold to Manda."


    Hermes was stunned and then said with a loud smile, "put the Pearl into this island."


    Pan Shen said, "how do you know this island? Manda told you?"


    Hermes nodded. "He just told me through a spell."


    Pan Shen said, "strange, why didn''t he tell me directly?"


    "I tell you, he''ll die," laughed Hermes. "The child is so like me. When was the last time you saw him?"


    "Yesterday I saw him come out of the holy city. It must have been plotted by God."


    "The divine Punisher?" Hermes shook his head. "What does the divine Punisher want to believe in pearls? The most important thing for their gods is faith. After leaving the holy city, he must be in a hurry to return to the Roma country. He should go to the underworld and send someone to inform Hades that I want to go to the underworld."


    ……


    In the cabin, Sphinx was beating Manda.


    "Why wait three days? Why don''t you give me the Pearl immediately? Why use the Styx island? I warned you not to play tricks with me!"


    Manda was beaten black and blue, but her bloody face was still smiling: "20000 pearls are not a small number, and the gods need time to raise them."


    "You lie! What did pan tell you?"


    It turned out that he could not hear Pan''s voice.


    Manda said, "he said that twenty thousand pearls, many of them, must be sent to Styx island in three days."


    "Tell me the password to open the island!"


    "I have many Styx islands. Which one do you want to know?"


    Sphinx punched Manda again. Manda lifted her feet off the ground, turned a somersault in the air and fell to the ground.


    "Tell me the island with pearls!"


    Manda lay on the ground and said, "sorry, I haven''t decided yet."


    "What are you talking about?" Sphinx picked up Manda. "Do you want to die?"


    "Almost out of breath," Manda sniffed. "I won''t tell pan God which island to put the Pearl into until three days later. If anything happens to me before that, such as death or becoming a useless man, you won''t get a Pearl!"
