Chapter 138 God’s Metaphor (Part 2)
Apse City. Temple of Glory
The floor of the hall was covered with countless complex characters, and a faint holy light flowed among the characters on the ground, and several priests were still conducting the final inspection.
After a moment, the energy of the magic array began to vibrate, and "buzzed" resounded throughout the hall. Characters emitted holy light. After a moment, they all floated up. For a moment, the hall was filled with three-dimensional map arrays.
"Architect, the teleportation array has been formed." Seeing this, everyone waited aside with their hands hanging down and breathing. Only one local bishop said respectfully: "The Temple of Apps City has been connected!"
The object he faced was a clergyman with two silver stars, which was the mark of the twelve-level priest. Behind him, two knights in armor stood neatly.
The two knights' armor and weapons are exactly the same. The breastplate is marked with the flame mark of the Lord of Glory, and there is also a sword below - the mark of the Knights of the Holy Swords.
The Archbishop looked at it and said with satisfaction: "Good!"
The completion of the teleportation array marks the completion of the wartime system.
Everyone in the hall saluted respectfully to the Archbishop, watching him slowly leave, and the two knights followed closely behind.
After passing through the corridor, he came to a room. The Archbishop sat down and the pastor came over with a stack of files. The Archbishop sighed and started working.
Half an hour later, the Archbishop casually took out a very ordinary file, but did not read it immediately, and rubbed his forehead tiredly.
Even with the blessing of divine power, busy work consumed his energy, after all, he was already sixty-one years old.
"My Lord, thank you for serving you before I am completely old!" He prayed habitually.
Then he took out the file and continued to work, showing a hint of sneer: "Poor little guy!"
He casually stated on it: "Agree to Romon as Lord and become the lord of the Thirty-first District."
Then, he casually put the file on the processed file and stacked it on it.
Almost at the same time
"Romumon, when will you be granted the title?" Romon, Nick's family, Fafell, Miss Avesi, and a large group of people were walking in front of the territory, among which Romon and Miss Avesi were leading the horse.
In contrast, Nick is the most excited among them. As an intern, the size of his territory can directly determine the size of his rights exercise!
Romon smiled while signing the horse, "Who knows this? According to Miss Alini, Viscount, as the most direct lord, will review this matter. If there is no mistake, it can be awarded the title."
"Oh! Then I am a veritable insurgency!" Nick cheered.
Fafell patted Nick on the shoulder. "What, aren't you now? Also, Romon praised you a few days ago, why are you like this again today?"
"What? I'm just happy, are you unhappy?" Nick looked at Fafell in surprise.
Romon laughed and said nothing. Fafell soon became a gang with Nick.
Looking at everything in front of him, Romon suddenly felt very peaceful: "This kind of life is actually very good."
He raised his head and happened to meet the eyes of Avessi, who was also a druid. The two of them smiled faintly.
The same tranquility, the same indifference, joy but not addicted, this is the mentality that the druid should have. After walking for a while, Romon said: "Don't send it away, there's nothing to do, just climb the hills along the hills, and the hills are all jungles, and the road is easy to walk on!"
"Okay, then we're back." Nick and Fafell also went back.
Only Avesie and Romon continued to move forward. There was no trace of death on the hills anymore. The lush jungle was covered with low hills, and the two of them were leading their horses, coming from the south of the hills and heading towards the opposite side.
"Romon, we walked for a whole day last time!" Miss Avesie was not wearing a druid robe today. In order to adapt to horse riding, she was wearing tight clothes like Romon.
When the wind blew, her hair was gently raised, which felt very flowing.
Romon turned around and looked at the forest in the north, and sighed a little: "Yes, the road is not difficult to walk. If you hadn't been here, you really don't know that this place is adjacent to our territory forest house..."
"Wrong." Miss Avesy suddenly reminded her seriously.
"Wrong?" Romon looked at Miss Avesie in surprise.
Miss Avesy burst out laughing: "Yes, this is your territory now, why is it so clear?"
"Haha, yes, this is my territory, it's really like dreaming." Romon laughed and looked at the hilly land in front of him: "Miss Avesi can live here too!"
"What do I live here for? I am not like you, and have settled here, my home, in a distant place, Romon, you don't have to regret my decision." Miss Avesy smiled faintly.
When Romon saw it, he had to sigh and stop talking.
Originally, the completion of this mission was due to Avesy's contribution, but because she did not want to be exposed to the public, Romon had to bear all the honors and rewards alone.
After accepting the land gifts from Baron Galle and Baron Rocas, he wanted Miss Avesi to choose a greenhouse or something, and he expected that the other party would not refuse. After all, as a druid, a greenhouse is really important, more important than money.
However, Miss Aves refused. The reason was very simple. Her home was not here. Even if the greenhouse was built, she could not stay there for a long time. If that was the case, why waste manpower and material resources? According to her, she had learned a lot from Romon, and it was nothing to do to help Romon. Romon didn't have to take it seriously.
Being calm and fair in dealing with things may be the mentality that a druid should have.
After learning about the other party's intention again, Romon simply stopped forcing it. Anyway, he had prepared a lot of other gifts and was about to give it to Avesie when he left to show his feelings.
"Okay, we have seen the land that Baron Rocas gave you. It's not bad, the land is quite fertile. It's strange. It's really strange that such a piece of land would be given to someone by the lord!" Avesy also turned around to see the road they came.
Looking down from the hills, the edge forest can be seen very clearly. In fact, the distance between them is still very far. The land in the middle is the piece given to Romon by Baron Rocas.
If it weren't for Rocas' amazing actions, although Romon would have had another territory at this time, it would have some flaws because it was not close to the original territory.
Now, Baron Roccas gave this land to Romon, so the hills and the villages under the hills were connected with Romon's Forest House, and three pieces of land formed a complete territory.
Romon was puzzled by Baron Rocas' generosity, but he could not find any disadvantages for him, so he could only make a secret doubt. Now that Avesy asked, Romon shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I am the Baron, how could he please me?"
"Haha, don't belittle yourself. Now no one knows that there is a genius in Ricca Town. You are very famous now. Otherwise, I wouldn't have rushed to the Forest House from such a distance." Miss Avesie joked with a faint smile. "Besides, maybe the Baron suddenly realized that you, a young man full of miracles, are most suitable for inheriting his territory, and it is unknown."
"Haha, I didn't expect that Miss Avesy was so awesome to make fun of people." Romon smiled bitterly, and said as he turned over and said, "Okay, let's go down quickly. After turning the hills, we will go to see the village below."
Seeing Romon riding down the horse, Miss Avesy shook her head with some amusement, then her face returned to a dull look, and she also turned over to the horse, and then rushed down.
The hills are not small, and the road is not very steep. Although the two of them came last time, they did not take the initiative as they are now.
Both horses took small steps, and were controlled by the knights in a hurry. Seeing Miss Avesie following him, Romon asked, "By the way, are you still used to riding a horse? Do you need to take a break first?"
Miss Avesy rode on the horse and shook her head: "It's okay, the druids are very good at controlling horses. If you don't feel tired, I'll be fine."
Knowing that what the other party said was not necessarily the truth, but knowing that the other party's temper was even more so, Romon had to slow down his horse.
Feeling Romon's intentions, Miss Avesi just smiled faintly.
The two walked a little further and came to the entrance of the original mining area, which attracted Miss Avesy's attention: "Romon, look there."
"Oh, the mining area, I already know. Baron Galle hired the Mage Union to investigate it specifically, but found that it was indeed a ruin and no minerals." After looking over, Romon sighed.
Miss Avesy frowned slightly: "The feeling this mining area gives me...is very strange."
"Strange?" Romon also glanced at the mining area: "It's just a mining area, have you discovered something?"
"I didn't find anything, it just gave me a very bad feeling." Miss Avesy shook her head and said.
"Since you don't think it's good, let's get off the horse and take a look." Romon said immediately.
Miss Aves nodded and was about to agree, but suddenly looked down, and then he pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly: "I can't look at it for the time being, someone is coming."
"Oh?" Romon led his horse and looked down, and saw a group of people walking towards the village under the hills. "It seems... it was those villagers."
He carefully identified and found that there were several faces that were familiar, just the villagers he saw a few days ago.
"It seems that I am here to welcome you, the lord. Come and take a look." Miss Avesy smiled faintly.
That was the case, and Romon had to give up the decision to check the gap for the time being and led his horse down with Miss Avesy.
The two teams finally gathered together under the hills. The group of people was indeed villagers from the village below. The leader was the current village chief, the old man named Sandas.
"Lord... we are here to welcome your inspection..." Perhaps someone conveyed to them the news of the change of ownership of this village. When the village chief named Sandas faced Romon, his attitude completely changed and he became awe.
In this world, the lord is in charge of life and death and is guaranteed by the country and God.
"You are the village chief of the village, named Sandas? We met last time, but how did you know that I am the lord you are waiting for?" Seeing that the other party had already known his identity, Romon simply said in the lord's tone.
Sure enough, when he saw him asking questions indifferently, Sandas answered more and more cautiously: "Return to Lord Lord, five days ago, I received the document from the Baron Mansion. I knew that Lord Druid, who solved the plant problem in the territory last time, would become the new lord of our village. Because I saw you last time, I knew you were our new lord."
He paused and said, "Our people often come on the hills. When they see you coming, they will come back and report quickly. We will come here to welcome you."
"It's good if you know, then I don't need to say more, and you don't need to panic. Even if you change the lord, it won't have much impact on your daily life. Perhaps, there will be better improvements... Today I'll just come here to take a look. Tomorrow, I will send someone to conduct a detailed investigation and registration of the situation in your village. You all go back and we'll leave in a while."
"Two sirs, please sit in my house for a while. We already know what you did for the people in our village last time. Thank you." Just as Romon turned around and was about to leave, the old man behind suddenly said.
Romon turned around and saw that the villagers behind him looked at him, in addition to awe, there was a hint of gratitude.
I also understood it even though I thought about it. Perhaps last time they did not use forced purification to eliminate the ghosts, but instead used the name of living sacrifice and God to eliminate the resentment of the dead and sent them to heaven.
Those souls were once the young and strong forces in the village. Almost in that mine accident, every villager died in it. Therefore, these simple villagers were very grateful for Romon's actions at that time.
"No, we have some other things, so we can't get over it." Romon waved his hand, then turned over and headed up to the hills with Miss Avesy.
On the way, Romon suddenly said to himself: "It seems that this village is not as difficult as I imagined to be... Oops!" He saw the flat ground of his territory and suddenly exclaimed.
"What's wrong?" asked Miss Avesy.
Romon looked at Miss Avesy: "We forgot to see that mining area when we came back."
"Yeah, I'm back in a hurry." Miss Avesy said, with a strange expression, as if she was a little regretful.
