Drake's Sword Chapter 15 The Three Tests of Hades
The fifteenth chapter of Drake's sword: the three tests of the Hades
Mark's predecessor was definitely the Emperor of Europe, and he wandered around the sea and ended up catching the legendary Drake's sword, albeit only a scabbard......
According to the fishermen from Tierra del Fuego, the Sword of Drake has a special effect of suppression, and taking it directly does not essentially solve the problem. Drake himself had to be found to find a solution once and for all.
But fortunately, after so many years, he can be regarded as having some connections. At the recommendation of his old boss, General Don Juan, he went to the palace of Hades to find the whereabouts of Drake himself.
On the other hand, Marjorie, who was traveling with her, stumbled upon a book of singing poems in the study of Hades' palace, and because she had seen the power of this book before, she had always been anxious to get the book, even if it was to borrow it.
However, all this seems to be seen by Macaria who came in just now, after all, people are also gods, and their insight is still very strong, as for the reason, it is very embarrassing. Marjorie was in a hurry when she put the book away, and the whole book was reversed, and it looked very conspicuous in the neat rows of bookshelves.
While Don Juan and Macaria were chattering, Marjorie's eyes still lingered in the book from time to time, and she didn't even respond to Mark's inquiries on the side.
When Mark asked if Drake himself was in Hades' palace, Macaria was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Mark excitedly asked, "Can you introduce me?".
"What are you doing with that bad old man?" said Macaria dismissively.
"Well...... Here's what happened......" Mark briefly explained the matter of Drake's sword. But looking at Macaria's expression, it didn't seem to make out what it meant.
"Would you like to see us?" asked Makaria, tilting her head.
"Yes, it's okay to meet each other!" Mark said excitedly.
"Well, there's another thing...... Marjorie followed. For a moment, everyone looked at Marjorie in confusion. Slightly stunned, Marjorie finally spoke: "emmmmm...... I want to borrow a book......"
"Oh, the book, you choose!" said Macaria.
Marjorie stood up, took out the book of poems, and said, "This is it." ”
The book of poems sat quietly on the huge desk, and Makaria frowned slightly, but soon it was fleeting. Because she seems to have thought of a great idea.
"This book. Yes, I can lend you ......" Makaria said generously.
Seeing this, Marjorie immediately smiled, she didn't expect it to be so easy. But after being happy for less than two seconds, Macaria suddenly changed her words and said, "However, there is one condition......"
When I hear this, it's like you're about to marry Emily Suzuhara, but people don't seem to look down on you, it's hot and cold.
"What conditions ......," Marjorie said in an affirmative tone that she wanted to get the book anyway.
"After all, it was taken from me, and if I took it casually, I'm afraid that in less than three days, I would be emptied here. Macaria thought for a moment and then said, "Well, let's make a deal, and if you need to complete my three tests, I'll give you the book, and I'll let you meet Drake himself." How?"
"Three Tests......" Mark sat there with a confused expression, looking at the book on the table, he really couldn't understand why Marjorie wanted it so much. Equally puzzled were Clint, Diana, and Monica on the side.
Just when everyone was puzzled, Marjorie solemnly looked into Macaria's eyes and said firmly: "Okay, I accept your test!"
Macaria looked at Marjorie and smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth, "Then it's settled......"
Mark looked at General Don Juan, only to see the general nod. It seems that this wave of operations has been acquiesced, and perhaps only this kind of agreed transaction can come openly.
Seeing that there were no objections, Macaria tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Well, the first test is to defeat a fierce lion, which is a lion kept in captivity by Tisiphone. Since the last war, the three goddesses of vengeance have all left, but they have gone in too haste, and one of the lions in captivity has become a scourge. You just get rid of it!"
"Macaria, this task is a bit ......," Don Juan objected at once. But a terrible memory flashed through my mind.
"We accept the mission!" Mark thought for a moment, isn't it just a lion, don't be afraid, anyway, they have a team of two AD and two AP, although there is no nurse and support, but two female magicians can also control the field, it is enough, there is nothing to be afraid of.
"Okay, rejoice, this is my white owl, it will bring noodles to the lion, looking forward to your good news!" Makaria conjured a white owl and handed it to Mark and his party.
The next few words of simple greetings and flattery were skipped, but Don Juan's heart was still a little uneasy, but considering that they were not even afraid of the great evil star like Purrank, the disaster of the sea, maybe there really were two moments. Looking at Macaria's calm expression, he had no choice but to give up.

Mark and the group left the study, and Mark asked Marjorie, "Is that much of the book?"
"Of course, the chanting energy recorded in that book is huge. Marjorie said.
"What about our magic?" asked Monica.
"That must be better than your magic!" Marjorie said.
"Hey, you say it again!" said Diana, who was immediately unhappy that she had relied on this thing to eat.
"Alright, it's starting to fight before it starts......" Mark snapped out the argument between the three girls behind him. "Let's go and complete the task first, there is no free lunch in the world, and the baby will not be placed there for you to take directly. ”
"But I'm curious if the hymns in that book are really as wicked as you say, and are they any different from church choirs?" Clint said.
Monica was dissatisfied with Clint's words, so she turned her elbow outward and stomped on Cint unhappily.
Marjorie said: "It must be different! The method is different, the content is different! The effect is definitely different! And the text is written in ancient Sanskrit!"
Hearing Marjorie say this, the other four people were immediately confused......
............
Inside the study of Hades' palace
Don Juan, who was left behind, looked at the book on the desk, also confused. It can be said that I have been across the ocean for so many years, and I have come over to someone, everything, and waves, but I am unspeakably unfamiliar with this book on the desk, although there are many ancient characters on the cover, but after opening it, it is full of ancient Sanskrit.
"Uncle Don Juan, the poems in this book don't really belong here. They are all Indian civilizations from the East. Macaria said.
"India, the empire colonized by England?" said Don Juan.
"Yes, a hundred years ago, an English and French expedition to India discovered this book in one of the monuments. Later, the archaeologist also took the book with him when he died, and exchanged it for ten years of life. Macaria continued: "Although he tried to decipher the singing in this book by force, ten years have passed and he still has not been able to obtain the true meaning of this book. Eventually, the book was collected by me. ”
"That girl wanted to get the book so much, it seems that she should have read the book too, but she didn't get the whole book, so she wanted it. The old and spicy Don Juan quickly guessed why.
"Whatever the reason, I hope they can complete their first mission successfully, after all, that lion has been doing a lot of harm lately......" Makaria said.
But when it came to this, Don Juan's heart couldn't help but be a little worried......
