The old man still didn''t know enough about Manda, and he didn''t know enough about the believers of Hermes.


    It''s not his fault, because Hermes has too few believers, and he doesn''t know much about the world.


    Want to use the fifth level skill of Hades to get Manda''s soul out of the body? He thinks too much.


    The followers of Hermes are experts in soothing the soul.


    But he replied, "of course."


    This sentence is very deadly.


    This made Manda replace the thunder scepter from his hand, and Manda paid the price of the double snake scepter.


    It seems not cost-effective. The double snake staff is a complete artifact, and the thunder Scepter can only be regarded as half an artifact.


    Manda kept the artifact of Zeus. He knew the usage and power of the thunder scepter, but most importantly, Manda was familiar with the characteristics of the double snake scepter.


    Dense lightning constantly pours on the old man. The old man tries to parry with the double snake staff. His skill is very flexible and can resist most of the lightning. He can''t resist it. He carries it with his body.


    Under the cover of double snake staff, the old man fought back with lightning strike.


    Manda didn''t dodge. Shengsheng carried the lightning and grabbed the double snake stick in the old man''s hand with her right hand.


    The old man looked at the double snake staff and licked his lips.


    The situation was embarrassing. The double snake staff absorbed a lot of lightning, but the old man couldn''t fight back with the double snake staff.


    Double snake staff can absorb all skills, but it must follow two rules:


    First, absorption and release cannot be the same person


    Second, absorption and release cannot be the same skill.


    The old man absorbed the lightning and he couldn''t release it.


    But Manda can.


    Manda released the black storm with a double snake stick, and the powerful hurricane blew the old man to the ceiling of the cave.


    The double snake staff absorbed too much lightning. The old man wanted to hang it on the top of the cave for a while. Manda, carrying the thunder scepter and the double snake staff, looked up to the sky and laughed all the way to the cave.


    As for the aegis shield, it''s not easy to get back half an artifact in the face of such a powerful opponent next time.


    But before reaching the cave, Manda was washed back by a huge wave.


    Poseidon''s skill... What kind of monster is this?


    Manda stood up from the huge wave, holding the thunder Scepter in one hand and the double snake Scepter in the other hand. She gritted her teeth and looked at the old man falling slowly from the cave top: "what else do you want?"


    The old man took away the spray, sighed and sang, "Chung Gu, Chung Gu, Chung Gu is cooked, and the meal is not cooked. Don''t rush me!"


    Manda blinked at the old man, "are you singing?"


    "Do you think it''s very kind? This is a poem from my hometown. My hometown is also your hometown."


    Manda was stunned for a long time and asked, "what does this poem mean?"


    The old man was stunned: "don''t pretend to be confused. You can''t understand such a simple poem?"


    "It''s a little familiar. Just explain it a little."


    Manda is telling the truth. Judging from the tone and sentence, the old man speaks Manda''s mother tongue in his previous life.


    Manda can also hear individual words, such as "beloved" and "cook". Although she doesn''t know which "cook" is, this pronunciation is unique in her mother tongue.


    The reason why I can''t understand the whole poem is that the old man has a serious accent on the one hand, and the limited Manda culture on the other hand.


    I also studied ancient poetry in my last life, but it is only limited to high school level.


    In college, he was a pure man of science and technology, and the gorgeous ancient poems gradually faded from his mind.


    After graduation, he inadvertently became a gambler. When he won money, he also had the impulse to write a poem. But looking at the expression of the losers, he needs to consider more how to take the won money away. When he comes to the real gambling table, not many people can afford to lose.


    Even when he was in high school, he might not understand the words in the style of the book of songs, not to mention that he had experienced 82 years of Jurassic in his last life.


    The old man raised his vigilance. A clansman reminded him that if the other party didn''t understand the poems of the Qin Gus people, the other party was probably not Manda, but Hermes.


    "You really don''t understand?"


    Manda wanted to get some information from chingus. He tried to hide it and said, "you can understand it, but there are one or two places that are a little obscure. Just explain."


    Without explanation, the old man asked, "what do you mean by pounding grain?"


    "Rush into the valley..." Manda replied confidently, "the brave soldier rushed into the valley. This is a war song!"


    "Ah!" the old man roared, "the guardian of thieves and swindlers, I should have known it was you. Don''t despise me. This is the world. If I wasn''t limited in strength, I would have a showdown with you!"


    The roar frightened Manda out of her mind.


    He said that the guardian of thieves and swindlers, he regarded himself as Hermes?


    He said he was limited in power. Did he say he was God?


    As Hermes, it''s best to scare him.


    Manda wanted to immediately turn into Hermes with his bad play skills, but on second thought, the real Hermes would not take the initiative to show his identity. He would continue to deal with each other with a joking attitude.


    "I think you recognize the wrong person. I''m your people. I''m Manda Claude Sai. I didn''t hear the poem you said clearly. If you repeat it again, maybe I''ll understand it this time."


    "Don''t play this mean trick again. Since you are a God, you should have the majesty of a God. You use deceitful skills like a mortal, but you don''t know what shame it is?"


    The older man became more and more excited. Although he spoke in common language, there were a lot of strange grammar and vocabulary, and Manda couldn''t understand him any more.


    "Since you don''t want to talk well, I''m too lazy to talk to you. I''ll leave without anything else."


    "Wait a minute!" the old man straightened his face and said, "you cheated me out of an artifact. I can''t think of you. I admit defeat in this war, but if I keep fighting with you, it may not be easy for you to get out. I have one or two plans. I don''t know if you want to try?"


    "Try, try." Manda just wanted to leave as soon as possible, but he didn''t ignore the old man''s capital.


    "Since you are a God, you should follow the rules of the gods. In my hometown, the gods are the same. You are the patron of businessmen and have always abided by the creed of fair trade. Today I want to make a deal with you."


    "Tell me."


    "You can find here to prove that you have seen Odysseus. I really want to know his whereabouts."


    He doesn''t know the whereabouts of Odysseus? Isn''t he Odysseus''s friend?


    Isn''t this the trap set by Odysseus?


    Manda said, "what good can I get by telling you his whereabouts?"


    "You can leave with the thunder scepter. I won''t pester you."


    Manda was stunned. The old man was simple and lovely.


    He has such strong strength, but he is arranged to squat in the cave to guard Manda, which may be related to his simple temperament.


    "I can tell you the whereabouts of Odysseus, but why do you believe me?"


    "The gods may lie, but they should not violate their creed. You advocate fair trade. I just exchange a precious artifact for a message. I believe the message will not be false."


    Manda smacked her lips. If she wants to leave safely, she must betray Odysseus. Can Manda do such a thing?


    Certainly.


    "I can only tell you where I saw him. As for whether he is still there, I can''t make any commitment."


    Manda told the whereabouts of Odysseus, and the old man immediately made way.


    Really let me go?


    Manda went outside the cave and the old man sent it to the cave.


    Looking at each other for a moment, Manda asked, "may I know your name?"


    "If you are not my people, you should not know my name. It''s worth meeting if you give it to you." the old man gave Manda a white handkerchief, which is a piece of high-quality silk. There are no patterns on the handkerchief, but only a piece of pure white.


    Manda did not dare to stay long. With her scepter and flying shoes, she hurried away from the mountains.


    ……


    At dawn, Odysseus walked out of the barrier and came to the river to drink.


    The cold river water was steaming on him, with the smell of eighth order believers and the smell of rotten corpses floating slowly in the air.


    There was a cold wind behind his head. Odysseus suddenly looked back and found kejero, the chingus man, standing behind him.


    "How did you find this place?" Odysseus asked.


    Kejero smiled: "you deliberately spread your breath. Don''t you just want someone to find you?"


    Odysseus said, "I want to live."


    Kejero said, "I can help you live, but only if you give it to me."


    "If you want something," Odysseus knew what the other party wanted, "but you have to give me a living body first."


    Kejero shook his head: "we have reached an agreement on the transaction, but the order still needs to be discussed."
