Chapter 42: Shadows and Duties
Saul is big, but no matter how many cities have their own plans and communities.
Due to some historical reasons, the professional unions of major mainstream occupations have branches in Sol, but the environment and region they live in are very different.
High-priced jewelry is ignored in the vegetable market. Crops in jewelry stores will only attract strange attention. All walks of life have their own characteristics, which also determine their position.
The religious district where the priests and paladins gather together is next to the nobles and administrative districts, forming the upper city of Thor.
Guards at the entrance will be careful and not allowed to enter those who are not dressed in dishevelled.
There are two divisions of the thief profession, one is in the slums in the outer city and the other is in the sewers of the city, and the latter is the main unit.
It is said that there is also the largest black market in Saul, where you can buy all kinds of rare products from slaves to alien smuggling products.
The new city outside the Sol wall was originally a gathering place for refugees and mercenaries who were not allowed to enter the city. Looking from the wall, there were large areas of sheds and low houses.
At night, there was no magic street lights there, and it was pitch black and there were only dogs barking, but there were vague sounds of footsteps and screams from time to time. Obviously, it was not a good place.
The slums among them are the highest crime rate in Saul City. People who work a little formally will choose to move into other urban areas. Even the city guards are lazy to manage. Gangs, thieves, and killers are the masters here.
The Rangers Union is located there not because they are notorious, but...
"It's all the Druid's fault."
Yes, the Rangers who are biased towards the natural side have a good reputation, but because they are inclined to the natural camp, they were pulled over here by their natural allies Druids.
The druid is very good? The guardian of nature? If someone asks this, I'm afraid the newcomer who has just arrived in Ashe is not long ago.
Druids do protect nature, but they use their own way to protect their beloved nature.
Natural is good, artificial is evil, lumberjacks, construction workers, developers, even if they are just civilians, are the most common targets they attack.
As for the city? Oh, the hell on earth made up of steel, cement, and bricks drive away the breath of nature and occupy the land of forests and grasslands. Nothing is more hated by the druids than a big city.
So, they expressed "natural anger" in their own way
For example, explosion, explosion, explosion...Okay, I'll just say that for a long time, the druid in the eyes of the Ashes was the embodiment of terrorists.
The profession of druids was born with longevity, but it became an obstacle to reform and progress. The oldest druid elders even experienced the ancient god war.
Although with the changes of the times, the Druids sects had split, and the reconciliationists walked out of the forest and tried to integrate into urban life, and began to become part of the Ash society.
There are still a lot of fundamental druids, which create new trouble every now and then.
What makes people feel headache is that the druid is indeed a part of the natural side, and it has been a pillar of several core internal cores since ancient times.
The new natural side god, the mother of thousands of vines, has been ascended to the throne of the God King for less than seven hundred years, and maybe not even one-tenth of the ancient druids.
She tends to cooperate with other gods and other races. In the eyes of some conservative schools, she is equivalent to betraying the neutral rules of nature that have been eternal for eternity, and instantly angers the conservative schools, including the fundamentalist druids.
The complete division of the Druid sect is a less important part of the natural civil strife.
In addition to the "betrayal" of the main god, the giant city of Xinshida, the industrial revolution brought by magic technology, the existence of steel magic armor, floating Vajra warships, etc., the great druids who have walked all the way from ancient times have even more hated the current world of Ashe.
Decades ago, after coming into contact with alien animal protection organizations and anti-human socialism, these guys with allies became even worse. Many well-known druids were also well-known wanted criminals in major cities.
The druids who are willing to live in the city are naturally reconciliationists and easing factions, but no one can guarantee whether there are radicals who intend to create new "big news".
Is there a druid who is a gentleman who suddenly gets into trouble and accepts the ideas of radical and fundamentalists?
And such a rebellious person is the most dangerous.
There was once a large city that was destroyed by a druid treacher who had lived in for more than 20 years. The tide of monsters he attracted directly turned it into a hell on earth. More than 300,000 people survived less than 20,000.
Nowadays, in the sect emblems of the druids, if they are mainly light green, or have patterns such as doves of peace, handshakes, etc., they are the easing factions and reconciliation factions.
If it is a dark green tone, with tears, blood-red hands, and wooden sticks with lightning... Don't hesitate, turn around and run, and call the police immediately.
Of course, everyone knows that these things can be faked... Ordinary people only need one review procedure to enter a metropolis like Thor, while the "wild people" wearing animal skins and tree trunks need at least 20 procedures and two days of review time, and they are often rejected for various reasons for their letters.
"What? You want me to tell you where I live for the past three years..... I'm going with the flow. What's the place of residence there? Work? Is it countable to protect nature and animals?"
A homeless man who has no serious work has a vague information in the past and is an extreme animal protector, so he will definitely refuse to sign up.
"What? I have a place of residence, and I have to find someone to prove it? There is only a white tiger and a nest of pythons next to me. I have a good relationship with them. I will ask them to prove it later. No need? What does it mean?"
A suspected mentally ill patient refuses to sign up... No, a suspected sad patient refuses to sign up!
"In a month, I finally completed the entry procedures. I also asked me to go to the Urban Management Bureau every three days to report and explain the recent situation? You are guarding against thieves! What? Thieves are safer than our druids? You are too bullying, I will stop doing it!"
I'm afraid that at this time, the only one who is willing to accept all kinds of almost humiliating reviews and forced to live in the city is the real terrorist who is already scheming. Normal druids have long been tortured.
The result is that the druids have become accustomed to living on the edge of the city, and they are also used to express delivery and purchasing agents for various daily necessities.
The hardcore rangers of the natural camp were also successfully dragged down by them and left their headquarters outside the city.
At this time, Luo Xia looked at Gaodefoli, who had been nagging for a long time, with a confused look on his face.
“……I just went to get a qualification certificate and a newbie suit. As for saying so much to me?”
"No, as one of the core top leaders of the God of Games Church, you must know these things nowadays, especially.... Your life may have been targeted by them."
After Gaodefury's explanation, Rorschach realized that from the moment he returned to Ashe, many things might have completely changed.
I am Luo Li's brother and the relative of the God of Games. I have been destined to be a core member of the Church of Games from the very beginning.
What I saw in Anthoren and what was shown within the church undoubtedly revealed a fact that Luo Li's game church is affiliated with the natural camp.
And it seems that according to the great Buddhist theory in front of you, the game church has been targeted by the druid radicals?
"Not only the radical druids, all the conservative natural gods and forces are our enemies. Also, please pay attention to your identity. Although you do not have any position, your words and deeds represent the will of our Lord. And our Lord has also issued an oracle to let you choose a duty as soon as possible and perform your duty..."
It feels like nonsense? It's very confusing? Translate:
"Your sister is our boss, so we are all considered to be working for your brother and sister. But you are just a weakling now. We have many mortal enemies on the Druid. Don't go to dangerous places to commit suicide. By the way, your sister said, you should quickly take a department to take power and share some burdens."
In Rorschach's surprised gaze, Gordefrey introduced the internal structure of the church and promised that he could choose any position, including his own position.
"…………In fact, the comingers who are close to the gods have teaching positions in the church, which is also a common practice. His Excellency Natasha is the chief guard knight and the chief knight of our Templar Order. His Excellency Isabella is the Sishu and Archbishop of the Collection, and is responsible for the compilation of doctrines and the core of communication. Master Merlin is the chief martial arts instructor of the Templar Knights, although he has always insisted on being a magic tutor….”
Roxa was silent, and he also felt the heaviness of this trust.
Although it is not difficult to sit in the position, it is different if you sit firmly. If you can't do it well, you may become the target of others' attack on Luo Li.
To live up to expectations, abilities and responsibilities must be adapted, and it is important to make careful and appropriate choices.
I'm afraid there are not many students who can do it... No, having a job seems very important, and it doesn't require any professional ability.
"Is anything OK? Including a legendary position like a female priest dormitory? The doorman is OK."
"Of course, I'll notify everyone now."
The smiling Gaodefuli turned around and left. Now it was Rorschach's turn to pull him by his sleeve.
"Just just a joke, a joke."
Turning his head again, it seemed that he suddenly remembered something, and the squinting pastor smiled even more dangerously again.
"Is it really just a joke? In fact, you can also attach the door keys to all the female priest dormitory rooms? Actually, I remember there are a few cute little ladies inside that are Zheng Taikong."
Roxa was silent... and then hesitated for a second, then refused him without hesitation.
"When I am Rorschach, even if I want to find a girlfriend, I won't use this method... Can I arrange a beautiful pastoral assistant for me? I feel that I need help when I adapt to the environment and become familiar with academic affairs."
[Rothar! Your guard Knight has been waiting outside for a long time! If you don’t get out within three minutes, I will give Isabella to you as a female assistant!]
Well, even the gods can't stand it anymore, but there seems to be a strange smell in this threat... It seems that I am looking forward to Rorschach not leaving within three minutes?
And Rorschach... ran away in an instant. Did he hate Isabella so much?
"Luo Li, you think I am a fool. Your personal assistant has to bear the living expenses and salary! Who can afford to raise a sow of krypton gold!"
