Manda agreed to Odasi's request and agreed to hold an alliance ceremony. For Manda, a ceremony seemed to bring no losses.

Moreover, Odasi himself did not make excessive demands on the ceremony. He only hoped that the two families would have a supper together.

"My ten subordinates are my blood relatives. Maybe you think I am naive, but in my opinion, nothing in this world is more important than family, and only the witness of family members is worthy of this sacred contract."

This is a coincidence. In terms of attitude towards family, Odasi was surprisingly consistent with Manda, which added some trust to him.

The dinner was scheduled for tomorrow night. Manda had a day off. When he returned to the room, he summoned Medusa. Before he could speak, he saw Medusa put on a long skirt and began to dress up carefully in front of the mirror.

Manda didn't want to disturb Medusa's interest. He knew that Medusa was very concerned about her appearance, but he couldn't stand the sleepiness and said to Medusa carefully: "Can I interrupt you for a while? I have important things to ask you."

"Don't worry, it'll be fine in a while," Medusa rubbed the rouge seriously. "It's a sacred, glorious and serious matter to be punished by her own man."

Manda didn't understand what she meant, but when Medusa finished dressing up, she lifted up her skirt and lay on Manda's knee.

Manda said in surprise: "What are you going to do?"

Medusa said solemnly: "Test it, you can use a whip. I count it myself and I will never shed tears."

This is what she calls sacred, glorious and solemn.

Manda smiled bitterly and said in her heart: Do you think I am stupid? What are the benefits of beating you? Isn’t it still my clone that hurts?

"I'll talk about this later. The person I met today feels that he is closer to the era in which you lived. I want to know if what he said is true."

"Who?" Medusa was stunned.

"It's the one I've just seen."

"Who have you met just now?" Medusa looked confused. "I was very tired and slept very heavily, and I didn't sense it at all."

This is strange. Medusa has a strong sense of perception. She can perceive the time she wanders outside. As long as she is in Manda's body, no matter who she has seen or done, she can perceive it. A few days ago, she was laughing at Roma's figure and the skills of the Leo.

But this time, Manda and Odaisi chatted for an afternoon, but she had no sense at all. Could it be that she was really just because she was sleeping too heavily?

"Are you lying to me?" Manda frowned.

"How dare I lie to you? If I really lie to you, just beat me to death!" Medusa's expression became more serious. She now disgusted Manda's suspicion, "Where is that person? I'll go and take a look with you now."

Go and find Odasi and Medusa to see?

Inappropriate, this is too rude and can easily cause suspicion. With Odasi's wisdom, he can see through Manda's intentions. It doesn't matter if he offends him, but if he offends Apollo, he will cause big trouble.

Medusa failed to sense Odasi, and Pan must have sensed it. This was related to Apollo's attitude towards Hermes. Such a big thing should be reported to Pan in time.

Manda prayed to Pan Shen, but he didn't receive a response until late at night. He could no longer bear the fatigue and fell into the quilt and fell asleep.

After sleeping until noon the next day, Manda prayed to Shen Pan again, and finally received a response this time, but Shen Pan on the altar was a little dissatisfied.

"I've been very busy, irritable, and in a bad mood recently. If you don't have a very important thing but disturb me again and again, I'll vent my resentment with you."

"There are important things, very important things!" Manda told the story about Odama, and Pan Shen was quite surprised when he heard this.

"Apollo sent the Itathia people? I really didn't expect this."

Manda said in surprise: "Have you heard of the Itasiya people?"

Pan Shin said: "I am very familiar with them, and you are not unfamiliar with them. Even if you have never seen them, you have heard of their deeds."

Manda shook her head and said, "I have never heard of the name Itathia."

"But you at least know their predecessors."

"He said this, it was Dilland."

"The founding of the Kingdom of Dir has been happening in recent years. The predecessor I am talking about refers to two thousand years ago. You should have heard of the royal family of Troy, right?"

Troy Manda was shocked. The name occupied nearly half of the book of "The Book of Odes". Hercules and Perseus, two heroes who have been famous throughout the ages, have some connection with this city, not to mention that Achilles, Hector, Aes and other heroes left their lives in this city.

What is the relationship between Troy and Itathia?

The old goat gave the answer: "The Itathia are descendants of the royal family of Troy. After the destruction of Troy, they fled all the way and established the Itathia Kingdom. This man did not lie. The Itathia gave the kingdom to the Tulanser family, the royal family of the Deer, four hundred years ago. They lived a seclusion and evasion life under the protection of Apollo."

It seems that there is no suspense about this matter, Manda said: "Since they represent Apollo, I must agree to their request for alliance."

"It's OK to agree, but..." Pan Shen twisted his beard with a complicated expression, "I didn't see Apollo's light in your territory. Logically speaking, Apollo should personally send them asylum to establish a covenant."

Manda said: "Maybe Apollo doesn't want to attract the attention of other gods."

"No reason," Pan shook his head, "Apollo had a very good relationship with his father. He did not need to deliberately conceal this matter. Where are these Ithathias?"

"It's in the house not far from the mountain village."

Pan Shen pondered for a moment: "You agree to the alliance first, but don't make substantial promises, especially don't make oaths in the name of the gods. I will continue to investigate this matter. Do not relax your guard and never offend them until you receive my news."

God Pan disappeared, and from His Word, the identities of these people can be basically judged, but there are some details that need further confirmation.

Since they represent Apollo's attitude, the banquet tonight must be treated with caution.

The dinner time is coming soon. Manda put on her dress and prepared for what might happen at the banquet. If Odarsi wants gold coins, she can give him some. If the other party wants land, she must politely refuse. If the other party wants soldiers, she will also politely refuse. If the other party talks about topics related to gods, she will turn against her face and leave no room for maneuver.

Before entering the hall, Manda once again reminded Medusa to pay attention to the guest of honor named Odasi.

But Medusa's condition seemed not very good: "Maybe it's because it's too cold here, I really want to sleep."

It cannot be blamed for her. The snake needs to hibernate in winter, not to mention that Medusa is still growing and has just experienced a hard battle. How long can she last depends on her willpower.

This is just a meeting and should not be difficult for you.

Manda kept hinting at herself, but her irritable emotions were always entangled in her heart.

The banquet began, and Odaisi brought ten subordinates. According to what he said, these ten subordinates were all his family, including three brothers, three cousins, two sons and two nephews.

The authenticity cannot be confirmed, but Manda does not believe that he has brought so many families, and Manda does not want his family to come here to take risks. The other party has brought ten people according to the principle of reciprocity, and these ten people are not all his family.

Manda thought of bringing all outsiders to the banquet, but if Apollo discovered it, he might be detained as blasphemy. He brought the poets, Chuyit and Cheldan, who knew the common sense of forming alliances and establishing diplomatic relations. The others were civil servants who had followed Manda for many years. Even if Apollo blamed him, Manda could use the excuse of being as close as his family to do perfunctory.

The preparation was so full, but the banquet was simpler than expected. Odasi did not make any substantive requests at the banquet. He had been praising the friendship between the two sides. Although it was all about Gildan, it made the atmosphere of the banquet relaxed and harmonious.

The tension and irritability gradually disappeared, and time passed quickly under the pleasure. Before we knew it, the candles on the candlestick were about to burn out. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the maids going forward to change the candlestick, Odasi asked his two sons to give gifts.

"This is a black fruit wine made by the Itathia people. It is a precious wine that is loved by the gods of Olympia. Every drop of wine carries the piety of the Itathia people to the gods. Please drink this cup to witness our great friendship."

Odasi raised his glass and drank it all, but Manda was a little hesitant.

Black fruit wine? Manda has never heard of this kind.

He mentioned the gods just now. Is this considered swearing to the gods in some nominal form?

Manda looked at the wine in the glass, and more than 600 gold coins appeared before her.

With more than 600 gold coins, you can buy two manors. Is this the value of a glass of wine? Or is it the wine power added with other ingredients?

Manda put down her wine glass and looked at Odasi with a solemn expression.

Seeing that Manda was not drinking, the poet and other subordinates also put down their glasses. Only Chuyith seemed to have no reaction. He stepped forward and touched the glass with the poet, and then drank the wine in the glass.

Odarsi looked at Manda and said solemnly: "Do you doubt my wine or our friendship?"

Before Manda could speak, Cheldan suddenly stood up, as if he had something to say.

Strange, why are there a few scars on his face?

Odai turned his face and looked at Cheldan and smiled, "My friend, what do you want to question?"

Cheldan looked dazed. He seemed to have forgotten what he was going to say, and sat back in his seat with a glass of wine.

Odarsi looked at Manda, and Manda suddenly felt a little confused.

He lowered his head and rubbed his eyebrows, and saw some watermarks on the table.

It's not an ordinary watermark, but three simplified Chinese characters. Although some of them have evaporated, Manda can still recognize the content:

Can't drink it.

Who wrote these three words? Why are the fonts so familiar?

Manda looked at the candlestick in a blink of an eye. The candle was half burning, and Manda felt something was wrong.

Didn’t the maid just change the candlestick?

Candlesticks…candles? What do I want candles to do?

Manda's mind was already in chaos, and suddenly Odarsi raised his glass and said, "Please drink this glass to witness our great friendship!"

Ou Daxi sweated a lot, was hot, tired, or scared?

Everyone, including Manda, raised their glasses again, just as nothing had happened.
