Chapter 388: Meet Typhon
Manda was in a carriage and pulled the Leo woman. Worm and Old Yaman went to the Haze Valley together.
He knew from the beginning that all this was related to Tifeng. The three of them came from the Valley of Chess and were both believers of Tifeng, and they had not escaped from the breath of the valley. As the old witch once said, no matter how they went to the ends of the earth, they could not get rid of Tifeng's gaze. The best way to save them was to return to the Valley of Chess and strive for Tifeng's forgiveness.
Old Yaman is a rare subordinate. Of course, if he dies, Manda can accept it.
The Leo and Worm are Manda's most important family. Apart from his own life, Manda cherishes them the most. The reason why it has been delayed to this day is because Manda really doesn't want to deal with Tifeng.
He knew Tifeng's strength and also understood Tifeng's viciousness. He did not have the capital to negotiate with Tifeng. No matter how much confidence he had in himself, the wisdom of mortals was not enough to compete with the gods.
In the cave, after Tifeng was free, he once said to him that he never owe any debts and that he would satisfy Manda's wish next time he met.
You can't expect the gods to keep their promises, but this is the only bargaining chip that Manda can think of.
Bruto and Lulian used all their means and made it difficult for these three people to arrive at their destination alive.
Leonder received a letter from the pigeon in advance and waited early at the entrance of the valley. Without too much inquiries or tedious etiquette, Leonder only treated Manda as an old friend who had been reunited for a long time and warmly welcomed the valley.
Everything in the valley has not changed. The castle hanging on the rock wall is still mysterious and unpredictable, and the temple hanging in the air is still majestic and solemn.
The snake demon Dostany is still so charming, the millipede Charles is still so vulgar, and the old witch Portia is also there. She looked at the situation of the Leo, Worm and Old Yaman. She wanted to say something, but she wanted to say something but stopped. She sighed and returned to her cave.
Leonde prepared a banquet, but Manda had no intention of eating and drinking, so he wanted to negotiate with Tifeng immediately.
But Tifeng could not see it just by wanting to see it. Leond said to Manda: "I have obtained the oracle. The master will come to the temple tomorrow and have a good rest. We will go to the temple to worship together tomorrow."
Manda didn't sleep all night, which was the same as the exam. Since she had one night to prepare, she must think about things more carefully.
The next day, the two of them climbed to the altar. Leond presented three cows and three sheep to Tifeng. When the blood filled the sacrificial vessels, he began to pray silently to Tifeng.
Listening to the prayer that Leonder said, Manda, who was originally calm, immediately became nervous. He re-checked his negotiation strategy and always felt that there would be some mistakes.
It is inevitable that the omissions will be avoided, but the principle of negotiation remains unchanged. You cannot turn against Tifeng in any way. You cannot say any threatening words. That will not only not save them, but you will also have to pay your life.
The best result is to exchange that wish for these three lives. If Tifeng does not agree, then leave them in the valley of resentment and let them live. If Tifeng doesn't even agree, then beg for it. If it really doesn't work, then give up Lao Yaman. The family is more important than the subordinates.
If a wish can only be exchanged for one person, Worm and the Leo women choose one...
Manda gritted her teeth, that was the result he didn't want to see.
While thinking, time had passed for a long time, but Leonder did not respond.
Manda asked, “Didn’t the gods come?”
Leonder sighed softly: "Don't worry, the master promised to come, but before He comes, there are a few things to confirm with you in advance. You should know what the master wants to you, right?"
What does this mean? Pull me into the gang?
This is impossible. Although Manda has no idea of loyalty, he knows the consequences of betraying Hermes.
He deliberately replied: "I can't guess the mind of the gods."
"In the master's temple, I hope you can maintain absolute sincerity. Don't forget that you have entered the stairs of this statue. Although the cunning Hermes stole a drop of blood from the gods, you finally made a vow to your master."
Manda laughed dryly, this was a question that he couldn't answer, and its embarrassment was equivalent to public execution.
He could only say perfunctorily: "Why should I mention the past?"
Leonder shook his head and said, "Actually, the master has been watching you. He admires you very much. He knows that you have different ambitions. You think the class of the demon god is too low and does not have the ability to dominate the country, but now the situation is different.
The demon believers can be promoted to the fourth level, Sphinx and Hydra are the darlings of the gods, and can be promoted to the sixth level. If you think this is not enough, you can become a believer of the master directly, just like me!"
Leonder stared at Manda and said slowly, "I have become a believer of the Master. I can advance to the eighth level like the Lord God believer, but the difference is that we do not need such complex rituals or such high sacrifices. The Master has even prepared magical artifacts for us. Isn't this much better than serving those arrogant Lord Gods?"
Manda laughed dryly: "We shouldn't say these blasphemous words in the temple."
"Are you worried that I will compete with you for the name of God? You don't have to worry. The master has more than one artifact, and more than one demigod can be cultivated. And I have another good news to tell you that if you are willing to surrender to the master, you can retain Hermes' skills and obtain all the skills of the master level one to fifth. Is this condition not enough to impress you?"
Such conditions are really exciting, and Manda can't find any reason to be picky.
But he was not concerned about this. He took a deep breath and asked a question: "Is the one who talks to me now, or is the believer of the god?"
Manda had long felt that the person sitting next to her was no longer Leonder, and Leonder was not qualified to make such a promise.
Upon hearing this question, Leonder freezes, and all his movements, expressions, and voices stopped.
Under normal circumstances, Manda should stand up calmly and leave the temple as fast as possible.
But he didn't dare to move at all now. A powerful majesty made him temporarily lose his ability to move.
After sitting silently for a while, Leond spoke: "Tell me your wish."
The voice was not from Leonder's mouth, it was from his chest, and there was an extra face on his chest, which was speaking to Manda.
Manda trembled and said, "I, I want to go back to my subordinates, one is called Holna and the other is called Worm. Worm is a bug..."
"Hedra must stay, Sphinx you can take it away, but her power will disappear. As for the bookworm, I will give him more power, which is a compensation for you."
Manda was stunned, it was much better than he expected.
He was about to salute and thank him, but then he heard the face say, "Tell me your wish."
Uh, haven't I finished talking?
"I just want to go back to my subordinates and have no other wishes."
"A mortal, a bug, is it worthy of being compared with a part of my soul?" The eyes on the human face slowly turned and looked at Manda, "Speak out your wish, your true wish."
How could such a good thing happen in this world? After saving Leo and Worm, can you still make a wish?
Manda remembers a saying, don’t underestimate the wisdom of the gods, don’t overestimate the kindness of the gods. At this time, you must not show any greed.
"Thank you for your generosity, I am satisfied, and I really have no other wishes."
The human face made no sound for a while, and the temple fell into a terrible silence.
"You have rejected me once, and you still want to reject me the second time? Who gave you the courage?"
A piece of smoke and dust rose from the temple, countless faces emerged in the smoke and dust, tentacles spit out from the mouth of the human face, and countless tentacles slowly passed by Manda's face.
"I said, I never owe debts," said all the faces, "Speak your wishes, or I will let you disappear completely."
