Manda asked Medusa to pray to Gaia. He wanted to know about Hermes.


    Gaia still loved his granddaughter and responded in less than half a day.


    "Grandma''s anger has not subsided. Now Hermes is being tortured with the most severe criminal law."


    "Can you ask the reason?" Hermes was always cautious in his attitude towards Gaia, and Manda could not understand Gaia''s anger.


    "You''d better not ask too much now," Medusa advised Manda. "It''s not good for you or Hermes to continue to annoy grandma."


    "My poor brother," Athena sighed, "if you don''t want to save him, at least send the news to Olympia and let those who can save him save him."


    Manda nodded and said, "it makes sense, but I''m worried that the gods are headless and not Gaia''s opponent."


    "You are not a mortal to worry about such a thing!"


    Manda said with a smile, "I certainly don''t have to worry about it. I can imagine what will happen next. At the critical moment of life and death, the great goddess of wisdom and the goddess of war were ordered to lead the gods to defeat Gaia. It''s a pity that Hermes, the Lord of the gods, failed to hold on to the end. Unfortunately, he fell, so there was a new master on Mount Olympia."


    Athena raised her sword eyebrow and shouted angrily, "don''t use your malice to guess the gods!"


    "You''re in a hurry. You see you''re in a hurry. Am I right again?" Manda sneered, "Your idea is basically perfect, except for one link, that is, you can''t defeat Gaia. Before you were defeated by the Lord of divine punishment, you still haven''t learned a lesson? You always want to establish your prestige by winning the war, don''t you want to lose the price behind the war? The times have changed, goddess, the rules of war are different from the times you are familiar with!"


    "Can you teach me a lesson?" Athena rushed up, but saw the cold light in Medusa''s eyes.


    Standing behind Medusa, with her hands on her hips, Manda continued to preach, "are you unconvinced? Am I wrong about you? Haven''t you realized your stupid mistakes?"


    Taking advantage of Athena''s inability to resist, Manda scolded him and felt much better.


    After feeling comfortable, her thinking became clear. Manda took out parchment and wrote down her next plan.


    Current goal: rescue Hermes.


    This seemingly simple goal is not easy for Manda. There have been too many misunderstandings between him and Hermes until now.


    But it''s still that sentence. Being reasonable, I can''t speak clearly all my life. Telling the facts, I can see it at a glance.


    Hermes gave Manda too much. In this world, he can only rely on Hermes.


    Hermes must be rescued. This goal is very firm!


    The main difficulty: Gaia is too strong.


    Measures taken: only appease, not attack.


    First of all, make amends to the Earth Goddess. The best way Manda can think of to make amends is to give gifts.


    He prepared a grand sacrifice for Gaia. It''s a shame that there is only one Gaia temple in the whole romlu country. Manda built it for Gaia on the seven star mountain.


    Gaia is too old. At the end of the classical era, few people believed in Gaia. Farmers prayed for a good harvest to the agricultural God Demeter, and women prayed for fertility to the queen Hera. People lived on the earth, but gradually forgot the earth.


    Although Manda built a temple for Gaia, it was also the first time to organize a large-scale sacrifice for Gaia. He didn''t understand many rules. Fortunately, Medusa helped.


    Medusa lived in the early classical era. At that time, Gaia''s incense was still strong. He still remembered some sacrificial rituals and knew his grandmother''s preferences.


    Kunta learned some taboos and taboos about Gaia from ancient books. After checking with Medusa, Kunta determined the overall process of sacrifice.


    Kunta could not be the high priest. According to the constraints of rituals, Gaia''s blood must be the high priest, and zigsai became the only choice.


    Zigsai really didn''t disappoint Manda. His basic knowledge was very solid, and he was very patient. He strictly wrote down all the processes taught him by Quinta.


    On the day of sacrifice, ziegsai organized the priests to offer sacrifices around Gaia, including food, grass, saplings and newborn cattle and sheep.


    The gifts to Gaia must be full of vitality, but it is difficult to keep them alive after the sacrifice.


    Ziegsai used his skills to make the sacrifice fall into the mud, only half of it. After being soaked in the mud for a period of time, he released his skills.


    Grain should be used as seeds for cultivation next spring, grass and seedlings should be planted back into the land, newborn cattle and sheep should continue to be raised, and the life blessed by Gaia must survive happily for a long time.


    The sacrifice lasted three days. On the last day, zigsai led the priestesses to end the sacrifice with the most primitive and primitive dance.


    But after the sacrifice, the whole seven star mountain shook for more than a minute.


    What''s going on? Gaia''s upset again? What''s wrong with etiquette?


    Manda hurried to find Medusa. After a night of prayer, Medusa received a response: "grandma is very happy. He forgives Hermes. You can take Hermes away."


    The pick-up is excellent, but where can I pick it up? Gaia didn''t give the address!


    Medusa prayed again. Gaia didn''t respond this time.


    There was no way. Manda could only ask Ogg for help. As Gaia''s favorite grandson, Prometheus gave a hint that Hermes was in the south of seven star mountain. He needed Gaia''s power as a guide to find Hermes.


    With Gaia''s power, it''s obviously still zigsai. Of course, Manda can''t take him alone. This journey is very dangerous. We should not only prevent Gaia from turning over, but also prevent the pursuit of impostors.


    Manda formed a small team, including zigsai, Ogg, Pluto and Sphinx. Medusa stayed at home temporarily. Her main task was to take good care of Athena.


    Everything was ready. The night before departure, Ogg received a warning from Prometheus. Don''t take too many people on this trip. The more the number, the more dangerous it is. At most, only two people can come back alive.


    The more people there are, the more dangerous it is. They can only come back alive. They can only rely on Gaia''s strength to find Hermes.


    Needless to think, Manda immediately disbanded the team and set off South with zigsai.


    Because there is no exact place, Manda can''t use the underworld to shuttle. To the south of Seven Star City is a deserted wilderness. There is no road for carriages. The only scientific and reasonable way is to ride a fake double snake stick with zigsai.


    I don''t know why. Every time he rode on the double snake staff, zigsai was very excited. Manda reminded him more than once that the scepter was fake and could no longer provide power for him, but zigsai seemed to have endless divine power and used his skills to open up a way in the woods and thorns.


    Every other day or two, Ziegler could receive Gaia''s instructions to indicate his next direction. Ziegler was very excited. In the first half of his life, Gaia didn''t add up so much to what he said to him.


    After walking for twelve days, they still couldn''t get out of the wilderness. Zigsai received the oracle. On the next road, they can''t use any tools, but must move forward with their feet.


    Unconsciously, she has been flying with her Scepter for twelve days. Manda realizes a problem. The place they are now in is no longer the world they are familiar with.


    According to the normal geographical concept, the south of Qixing mountain is the border between romlu and dir. There is indeed a wilderness between the two countries, but the wilderness cannot be so large.


    On the condition of riding a scepter, I can''t go out for 12 days. The area of this wilderness is equivalent to a medium-sized country. It is impossible for both romlu and dir to give up such a vast land.


    In other words, under Gaia''s guidance, Manda and zigsai entered another space, just like the Tartarus abyss Manda had been to.


    Manda''s conjecture is correct. The Styx island has failed, and other contacts with the outside world are slowly weakening.


    Fortunately, Manda was ready this time. He let zigsai carry all the equipment and supplies he could bring. On the evening of the 17th day, zigsai received Gaia''s Oracle.


    "On the next road, we will move forward in the wind and sand."


    The wind in the mountains is really not small, but where does the sand come from?


    Zigsai used the flying dust technique to create a piece of wind and sand.


    Manda can''t laugh or cry. This is the legendary self-made difficulty.


    At first, it was good. A little wind and sand was nothing to the seventh order saints.


    After half a day, the wind and sand became more and more violent, and the visibility was less than one meter. Manda didn''t know how zigsai was judging the direction.


    His mouth and nose were filled with sand, all exposed skin was cut by sand, and the gaps in his clothes were full of sand. The worst thing was that he couldn''t open his eyes at all, even a crack.


    "Almost!" Manda said to the zigzag circuit. "You don''t have to work so hard."


    Ziegsai covered his mouth with his clothes: "master, this is not my power, and I can''t be such a powerful power. This power should come from the Earth Goddess."


    Is this Gaia''s test?


    If it''s just sandstorm, this test is not too much.


    Manda covered her head with clothes and went on. Suddenly, her feet were soft and one foot fell into the soil.


    No, quicksand?


    What should I do if I fall into quicksand?


    It doesn''t seem like a big deal. If you use flying shoes, you should get away smoothly.


    Manda kicked her right foot hard and suddenly found that the flying shoe failed. He couldn''t fly.


    At the same time, the wind and sand stopped.


    The wind and sand went very suddenly. The yellow sand all over the sky disappeared for a moment. Manda found that they were in a dense jungle.


    Manda patted her clothes and found that even the dust on her body had disappeared. In this way, they had passed Gaia''s test.


    The Earth Goddess is really tolerant.


    Manda was secretly happy, but she found her right foot still in the soil.


    He moved his ankle a little, but unexpectedly, the earth suddenly collapsed, and he fell into a pit with siegesai.


    There are dense bamboo sticks in the pit. The bamboo sticks are very sharp. Thanks to the agility of Manda and zigsai, they have been dressed into meat kebabs.


    This is also the test of the Earth Goddess? Is such a trap a little lower.


    They were about to leave the trap when they heard someone talking above the pit:


    "The enemy is coming in!"


    "They''re not dead!"


    "Light the fire quickly, cover the lid and burn them!"
