Chapter 704: Temple of Wisdom

Late at night, Hermes came to the Temple of Wisdom and jumped into the hall through the window.

He knew it was a bit undecent to do so, but He did not want to alarm Athena's guards. Athena disappeared, but his five guards kept their guards. Although these five guards were not strong, they were very resistant to fighting. It took a lot of effort to kill them and would be resurrected soon.

The orderly stewards acted heavily on guards, which was even more indecent.

Besides, Hermes felt that it was nothing wrong with doing something like a thief. The open fire robbery really hurts its reputation.

He came to Athena's Fountain of Faith. After receiving the news from Manda, Hermes carefully considered Athena's current situation. According to normal circumstances, He should have a high probability of falling, or being surrendered by the Lord of God's Punishment. Of course, there is also a small probability that he will successfully escape and hide in a corner to recover from his wounds.

Now Odysseus wants to recruit believers for Him, which proves that Athena needs the power of faith. If He can exchange the power of faith through believers, it proves that He has brought the fountain of faith with him.

Is there such a possibility?

There is, there is, but the probability is not high.

Before Athena went on war, she never thought she would lose. Even if she lost, she wouldn't be able to return home. There is no need to bring the fountain of faith with her. The fountain of faith is very fragile. If it is damaged in battle, I'm afraid even Hephaestus cannot be repaired.

If he did not bring the fountain of faith with him, what else would he have to do with his believers?

Hermes could not think of the answer, so he could only go to the Temple of Wisdom to verify it.

Bypassing the hall and walking through the corridor, Hermes came to a garden. He had visited the Temple of Wisdom countless times, but his understanding of this temple was limited to this. Athena never allowed outsiders to step on the ground deeper than the garden.

And even if you have the opportunity to set foot, you have to find the door first. The garden only has an entrance connecting the hall and no exit. From this point of view, this garden seems to be the end of the temple.

But this trick naturally deceived Hermes. He put two hundred mice in the garden and observed the changes of the roads in the garden through the perspective of the mice.

The mice are very efficient, but the casualties are also heavy, and there are too many owls in the garden.

After discovering all the roads, there were less than thirty left of two hundred rats. Hermes took out a bag of pearls and rewarded them to the rats, and repeatedly emphasized that the reward of the fallen ones should be given to the family.

There are six hundred and sixty-four roads in the entire garden. Hermes once discovered 420 of them, and more than 200 of them were his first discovery.

After drawing more than 600 roads in his mind, Hermes soon discovered the whole picture of the garden.

It is not a visually visible whole picture, but a real whole picture.

In places where visually invisible, there is a hidden exit to the garden.

Hermes solved many puzzles from the layout of the road and found the door in the middle of the garden. He looked left and right, and there was indeed no one around. He was about to enter the door, but he saw that the door suddenly disappeared.

Why did it disappear? Just because I looked away?

The roads around also changed, and the locations of the flowerbeds and pools were interchanged.

If I see it, I will be there, and if I don’t see it, I will be without it. This is a superb means to arrange the mechanism.

Hermes sighed and resummoned a group of mice. The mice were not very motivated and were frightened by the owls and needed some motivation.

"I treat you very well. Now is the time for you to show me wisdom and strength. The old rules remain unchanged. Every time you find a way, you will reward a pearl. The rewards of those who die will be doubled. Those who find more than three roads will be doubled. Those who kill owls will be ten times more!"

The mice disappeared without a trace in an instant, paid the painful price of more than half of their deaths, and once again discovered the road in the garden.

Hermes quickly solved the puzzle and found a door in the southeast corner of the garden. If he entered the door now, the door would probably disappear immediately because he lost his gaze, and Hermes would be trapped inside.

Someone must keep staring at this door.

Let the mouse stare?

It’s not that they can’t believe in mice, but this kind of creature has the nature of looking around. Moreover, even if the mice are dedicated and loyal, they still have the risk of being eaten by owls.

Forget it, use the clone.

Hermes' clone is stronger than Manda's clone. He can move, but he cannot do too complicated things. It is not a big problem to stare at the door here, and it will be troublesome if he encounters five guards.

Putting his clone in a secret place to keep his sight still, Hermes entered the door.

In the door was a promenade, and at the end of the promenade was a garden. Hermes frowned, and there seemed to be no mice in the garden.

There are no mice, which proves that there are no guards here, and there are no guards. Hermes summoned sixty clones and began to explore the way...

From late at night to dawn, after passing through seventy gardens, Hermes finally saw a different corridor. At the end of this corridor is not a garden, but another palace.

The palace has no hall, only rooms after rooms, each room has two doors, each leading to the next room.

One room is connected to two rooms, two to four, four to eight...

If it were a irritable god, he might have razed the palace to the ground, but Hermes showed enough patience. He swallowed two bags of pearls, summoned a thousand clones, and began to search one by one.

From the early morning search to the dusk, Hermes finally found the Fountain of Faith in a room.

As the spring water surged, pearls appeared from time to time. No one picked them up in the past few days. A lot of pearls have accumulated. After calculation, I can get almost 200 harvests every day.

This is similar to Hermes' estimate, which means that Athena's spring of faith is still in the Temple of Wisdom.

In this case, what is the use of Athena to believers? He cannot receive the power of faith at all.

Was this news conveyed to Odysseus by Athena? Is Athena still alive?

Hermes left one clone in this room, took back the other clones one by one, and left the Temple of Wisdom.

After returning to the temple, he went to find Hephaestus. After explaining the request, Hephaestus frowned and said, "What you want is getting more and more outrageous!"

Hermes smiled and said, "I will never treat you badly in terms of price."

...

Tomorrow is the day to meet with Odysseus. Before Manda can wait for Pan Shen’s reply, if there is no news tonight, Manda will kill Odysseus on the grounds of an emergency.

But what disappointed Manda was that at midnight, Pan Shen replied: "Accept this business, but to make a good price, first build a temple for Athena, a very small temple, help him recruit a hundred believers, offer prayers every day, and sacrifices every year, on the condition that you must see the ripped dog teeth."

Manda frowned and said, "Isn't this cheaper Athena?"

"Don't worry, my father will never suffer any loss, and I'm afraid this belief will not be given to Athena."

...

The next morning, Manda drove away all the members of the house, leaving only Medusa. He was with Medusa, enough to fight against Odysseus and Franèse. With sufficient preparation, killing each other is not a problem.

Odysseus and Franes arrived as promised, and Manda briefly explained the conditions of the transaction, and Franes was quite dissatisfied with this.

"We want ten thousand believers, you only give one hundred? Are you considering the price? You are not doing business at all!"

"One hundred are just deposits. After the matter is completed, there will be no shortage of 10,000 believers. But if I don't even see the thorn lacerator and I will hand over 10,000 believers to you, isn't this business a bit too hasty?"

Odysseus nodded and said, "I accept your advice. Within a month, I will see the temple. Before the New Year, I will see the first sacrifice to the goddess."

"It doesn't take that long. I'll let you see the temple and sacrifices within twenty days. Of course, the temple will not be too large. It can only be transformed with existing buildings. As for the statue of the Goddess of Wisdom, you should know the best, so you will be responsible for building it!"

Manda intends to test Odysseus. He suspects that Odysseus will tamper with the statue. King Baier once used this method to transfer his faith to the Lord of Punishment to the ancestor of mankind.

He suspected that Odysseus had not received Athena's oracle at all. He even suspected that Odysseus had the ability to digest the pearl of faith and created a name for himself through the name of Athena.

These are all the tricks that Manda plays, but we need to see if Odysseus can play new tricks.

But unexpectedly, Odysseus did not want to undertake the task of building a statue: "The temple is provided by you, the believers are provided by you, and the statue is provided by you. We are doing business and there is no reason to ask me to pay for you."

Manda was stunned. Did Odysseus not understand what he meant?

"I will pay for the money for building the statue of God. I just hope that the statue of the goddess will be more accurate."

"You also have believers of the Goddess of Wisdom. It should not be difficult for me to build an accurate statue of God. We will say goodbye first without anything else. We will see you again twenty days later."

After Odysseus left, Manda reported the news to Pan Shen, who was twisting his beard and couldn't understand the other party's intention:

"He actually refused to build the statue of God? That is to say, he was indeed recruiting believers for Athena, but what is the purpose of doing this?"

After pondering for a long time, Pan Shen shook his head and said, "First do what he said and complete the recruitment of believers as soon as possible. Another thing I forgot to tell you is that God of Beauty is very dissatisfied with you."

Beauty God? What is he dissatisfied with?

Pan reminded him: "Don't forget what you promised Him, and don't forget that He is likely to become the queen of heaven."

Manda slapped her forehead and really forgot about this.

He quickly sent a message to Qixing Mountain, allowing Stanley to release all the believers of the beautiful gods and open all the temples of the beautiful gods, and at the same time, he allowed the poet to build a place of love and love in every city in the southwest.

Then I thought about it, this incident made the poet a little unnecessary. The core of the place of love and love is not the architecture, but the operator's philosophy.

To put it bluntly, you have to find a suitable pussy.

Who is more suitable?

Moaila has been in good condition recently, but after returning to the southwest, she probably lost her condition.

Leo women don’t have to think about it. Just expressing this idea, I’m afraid she will turn against her.

Yudora is a little restrained, and Roma still needs her.

Medusa is so charming, but unfortunately she has a language barrier...

You can't just focus on the women around you, you should further open your mind. From the perspective of potential, Bruto is not impossible, and Chuyit is also very experienced.

While thinking hard, I suddenly received a message.

Ziegs woke up.
