Chapter 642: One-day trip to Bingtis’s Shadow City
The only impact that the arrival of the divine envoys had on the Shadow City and the entire empire's top management was that we had five more mouths to feed us, and along with them there was a gangster leader who wandered around the fortress all day looking for people to fight or inciting others to fight.
The members of Dingdang's team are all relatively honest. Although there is a hot-blooded idiot Ilson who will provoke Dingdang from time to time and be hung up and tied up in various places and places, but at least he will not cause harm to others: except himself.
Apart from being beaten up by her sister and causing traffic jams when she fell in love, Monina is a very good girl except for being a little violent towards her brother. It can be seen that she supports Dingdang's authority very much, although
I often don't understand what kind of authority Ding Dong has, but this dark goddess lady is indeed very obedient under Ding Dong's orders. For example, when beating Ilson, try to do it outdoors to prevent breaking furniture or something...
As for Long Shen Lin, just like my initial impression of her, she is really an extremely timid and timid girl. It is said that this character is related to her clumsiness and age. According to the view of the gods, this golden two-headed dragon
She is still underage, and in human terms, she is still in the age group of junior high school. She was incorporated into Dingdang's combat team as a combat trainee. As the most junior apprentice in the team, of course she became a handyman.
Yes, although the seniors never bully the juniors, the natural character of this Dragon God girl makes people think that she is a doormat at first glance. According to Monina's troubled introduction, because of Lin's unsatisfactory appearance, they
The team was once rumored to be a hellish war group that "let the newcomers run around and sell themselves as coolies, sweat, sweat, endure humiliation, and make money to support a group of useless seniors." Of course, this rumor did not last long, because the image of Dingdang, the mascot captain, is in the God Realm.
It's really shocking.
But then again, there are really many innocent guys in the God Realm. Why are they so easy to bully before they graduate from junior high school? Look at the people on earth, these days, there are already fathers in the first grade of junior high school...
As for Kenser, I think this uncle is the most unique one among the Ding Dong team. Look, there is a circle of mascots like a silly egg and a vicious doormat, with an Odin standing out in the middle. Who wouldn’t find it awkward?
While everyone in the team is busy having fun all over the world and following Ding Dong around the Shadow City, this white-bearded man who always wears a gray robe in the style of classical mythology is the only one who is doing serious business.
A truly understandable report has been compiled here, and Bingtis’s personal situation report has been uploaded to the God Realm. Although he claimed that it was just a small matter of raising his hand, it still made me have a crush on this uncle.
It gave me a good impression of being stable and reliable: I couldn’t help it, the contrast with the other products that were just messing around was too strong.
As for Bingtis, the leader with the highest status among a group of envoys in theory...
As hosts and personal friends, Sandora and I took on the responsibility of personally accompanying Bingtis to visit the beautiful scenery of Shadow City. Originally, I thought that a wonderland like Avalon would be more in line with Bingtis's hobbies. After all, you see, she
She must be a god, and even though she chose the wrong major, she is still a goddess of light after all. This kind of existence that sounds like golden light must live in a glorious temple, floating in the sky above the holy fairy lake, and eat enough every day.
It’s only right to go out and weave clouds and rainbows when the sun shines brightly, but her original words were:
"That kind of place has beautiful hair! It's everywhere in the God Realm. The place I live looks like that. If I want to come to your place to see the wonderland, I might as well go home and lie down by the window and look at the flower beds in the community! Take us around and you two will
The base camp, barracks, factories, residential areas, etc. - Do you have a shopping street in the human world? Last time I went shopping in the mortal world, it seemed to be a very interesting place!"
above.
Now I feel that Miss Lin is not the only one who can predict things, but also our greatest bishop Lilina. This weird pseudo-loli planned our itinerary before the messenger of God came: eating Malatang, fighting
Landlords, squatting on the sofa to discuss world peace, and going to the old city to stroll through the cottage streets, now they have achieved two things.
But in order to prevent accidents, I don’t dare to let these gods go out and wander around before they understand the special environment of the earth, so the day trip to Malatang and the old city has to be slow. Now I will lead Bingtis around the Shadow City.
Things have improved, and now this place is gradually becoming more prosperous.
"This is where the heroes of the world of Azeroth live." After visiting the military area of the fortress, I directly dragged this excited goddess sister to the nearest Stormwind City community. "This is the human area, imitating Stormwind City.
It’s a unique building that you can see all the world’s scenery by walking around the Shadow City. The cathedral in front is where the paladins and priests stay.”
Together with Sandora, I led Bingtis through the human area of Azeroth, and I tried my best to play the role of a guide.
The residential areas where the messengers from each world in Shadow City live were built by themselves after the original buildings were bulldozed by the builders (empire demolition office). Their structures are completely in accordance with the local customs of the corresponding worlds and restore the buildings of other worlds as much as possible.
Characteristics, just like now, when walking on the streets of the human area, you will not see any shadow of high-tech cities. You are surrounded by heavy stone buildings like Stormwind City. Even the street signs are made of wood.
It feels a bit like visiting a theme park. If no one had reminded you, you would have thought you had traveled through time.
Of course, the above is just the first impression. If you observe carefully, you can still find the differences between this place and the orthodox alien scenery. For example, the human mage holding a palmtop computer and memorizing arcane formulas is shouting out the phone with no clue.
The paladin in his iron can jamming the signal, the Stormwind infantry roaring by on a motorcycle - Ya's armor broke the motorcycle seat, she dropped sponges all the way, and there was a bag on the street corner.
, there is a sign next to it that says "One-stop service for fortune telling, sale of real estate, calligraphy and paintings, name change, train tickets, fortune telling, sales, certification, marriage agency, name change, train ticket". In front of it are the Four Treasures of the Study, Bagua, Zhouyi, a pair of chess, a pair of Go, a pair of checkers, a pair of military chess, and a pair of backgammon.
, the black super uncle who was stopping some unlucky pastor passing by to sell pirated disks.
The above is the unique lifestyle formed by heroes from all over the world in Shadow City. Other communities have similar... um...
"Bingtis, wait for me, Sandora notifies the urban management team and the solitary room...bastard, don't run away! I saw you! Stop!"
In the curious gaze of Bingtis who had not yet reacted, the two imperial heads accompanying him turned into a flash of yellow light and rushed towards an uncle in black who was fleeing in front, while his close friend beside him began to contact the relevant departments.
: "Urban Management Brigade, I am your head of state, gather in the human area of Azeroth immediately. Yes, he came out again, and he met Arjun..."
As for the streets, there were only a few stunned passers-by watching the imperial leader leave, bowing dumbly amidst the pirated plates and train tickets flying in the sky.
Ten minutes later, I returned.
"Ajun, have you caught it?" Sandora came over curiously.
I looked disgusted: "Don't mention it, he is indeed a man who has fought against half the city's urban management alone. He is a fully agility warrior - isn't that guy an MT? How can he be so good at escaping?"
"There is a kind of warrior in the world who is agile and resistant." Sandora nodded to me seriously.
That old bastard can't do anything else when he has nothing to do?! Although the regulations stipulate that soldiers can move around freely when not on duty, Cicaro doesn't do anything else except sell pirated palm readings?! I am now
It feels like the Shadow City Urban Management Team has been set up just for him!
"Well, can I interrupt now?" Bingtis was stunned for more than ten minutes, and then he touched my arm, "What was that for just now?"
Shandora and I turned around at the same time: "Chengguan Nemesis!"
"It looks very interesting," Bingtis nodded seriously, "It turns out there are such interesting people here...Chen, please take me to the cathedral to see it!"
I don't know why this goddess with a different way of thinking suddenly wants to go to the cathedral, but the attention she attracted here just now for chasing Sicaro is indeed a bit high, so it would be a good idea to move her position.
Since no one dares to build another "royal building" in the capital of the empire, no royal palace is allowed in the residential areas of all races in the Shadow City. The cathedral in the human area of Azeroth is the most magnificent building here. It is a building made entirely of stone.
When built, the huge vault structure reinforced with layers of arcana and holy light, adhering to the consistent heavy and grand style of Stormwind City architecture, can accommodate thousands of clergymen to worship inside at the same time. The name of this church is
Light's Hope Chapel - a very familiar name, right? Yes, it is directly named after the Light's Hope Chapel in the Plaguelands. That chapel during the Salvation War was one of the most fierce bridgeheads of the Salvation Army's bloody battles, but
In the end, it still fell into a paradise for the undead and mutant demons. When the imperial fleet flew over the Eastern Plaguelands, this temple, which represented the blood will of the mortal race, was destroyed by the impact of psionic energy like other fortresses occupied by demons.
Under the flames of the cannon, as a memorial, after the victory of the Salvation War, the resistance army rebuilt this cathedral in the scorched earth of the Eastern Plague Land, and decided that in the future, each one would represent the progress of the Salvation Army.
The frontline churches will all be called "Light's Hope".
An allusion worthy of inclusion in the epic, although I think it would lead to all kinds of geographical confusion...
In front of the cathedral is a large stone square. According to the human construction habits of Stormwind City, there are sculptures of figures related to the church in the center of the square. The priests of the world of Azeroth believe in the Holy Light, and there is no clear statement in their religion.
God, so this sculpture is not God, but a beautiful goddess who spreads her huge wings and opens her hands as if she is gently embracing the world. This goddess really exists in the real world, so due to some kind of belief
The taboo of the sculpture is that the facial lines of the sculpture are shrouded in some kind of permanent holy light and cannot be viewed directly. However, I have always suspected that this is because the human sculptors are unable to 100% restore the true appearance of the "goddess"
Under the circumstances, I got rid of that dull look on my face and made the second best choice out of desperation...
"This is Alaya's sculpture. During the Salvation War, the idiot cat single-handedly shaped the Holy Light Barrier covering almost a fifth of the continent, blocking the mutant demons in the entire Eastern Plague Land for a day, allowing the Salvation Army to
The warriors were able to retreat safely to the Land of Ghosts, which the blood elves called a miracle."
Until now, I have not dared to tell those warriors who were so fervent in their faith that Alaya actually got lost on the Quel'Thalas Trail - it was Qian Qian who was originally responsible for covering their retreat.
Unfortunately, Qian Qian is also lost.
"Wow! This place is not bad!" Standing in front of the cathedral, I felt the strong power of holy light coming from inside, caused by the joint prayers of thousands of priests. Although it could not compete with the divine magic of the gods,
Compared with Guangdong, Bingtis still raised his head with satisfaction, "I also have many churches like this. The Guangming Clan relies on churches for food - you guys wait outside, I'll come as soon as I go!!"
I was stunned: "What are you doing?"
Bingtis had already run to the door of the church at this time and greeted without looking back: "Collect the protection fee! There is a fee for believing in the Holy Light!"
Sandora and I were immediately stunned.
What was even more dumbfounding was that the female hooligan came out a few minutes later, holding a big cloth bag in her hand. She didn't even look normal when she arrived: "Before I could say anything, those clergymen took the initiative to pay for it."
…”
"What have you done?"
"Rush to the pulpit, release the holy light and wings, and then collect the money." Bingtis agreed honestly.
"I must think you are the Sisters of Battle," I slapped my forehead. "That is a fanatical organization composed of female priests from all the worlds in the empire's area who believe in the Holy Light. They directly believe in Alaya. The backbone is in
The female paladins and priests who were personally rescued by Alaya during the Salvation War would collect one or two offerings from various cathedrals on fixed days to replenish military supplies. The days are almost here... don't hurry up and return them.
!There are people inside collecting protection fees!”
Bingtis was stunned for a moment, and before leaving, he muttered: "This place collects protection fees only for groups?"
"I said, Sandora, has she been like this before?"
"It's normal. Have you forgotten that she formed the largest interstellar gang in the world that I ruled?" Her Majesty the Queen shook her head and sighed, "She has no malice and will not hurt others. She just treats it as a game. What do you think of the gods?
It’s impossible to guess.”
After leading Bingtis to visit the human area, we set off to the undead area. It wasn't just on the way, but mainly because I really didn't want to cause harm to the living people. Those boring skeletons should not arouse Bingtis's interest.
?
The ideas are good, but the facts are often terrible.
"I, Bingtis, am the Lord of Shadows!"
"The gospel of darkness will last forever!"
"Death is justice, nothingness is eternal, and the ultimate truth is also hidden in the shadows!"
"Gather at my feet! Feel the grace of the boundless darkness! Enjoy the solace of the biting shadow!"
"The Dark Goddess will always bless you - thank you for your patronage, next one!"
The Skeleton Lord whose name was called hurried forward and knelt down in front of the dark pulpit that Bingtis took out from nowhere: "God of Darkness, my soul flame seems to be weakening recently, and my movement speed
It’s getting sluggish.”
Bingtis, who was shrouded in black mist, stretched out his foot and stepped on the lord's shoulder to bless him, raising his hands high: "Confused child, you just lack calcium - next!"
Shandora and I stood dumbfounded behind this female gangster, looking at the huge gathering place of the undead that was already filled with pork belly and high-calcium tablets, pits full of skeletons, ghosts, and psychics, all lined up all the way to the tunnel in the distance.
There are two lichs hanging on the top of the pagoda below, holding a "Tail of the Line" sign in their hands, waiting to be called...
I had forgotten that this goddess of light who claims to promote fraternity and holy light actually comes from a family of three generations of black people.
All in all, Bingtis' ability to make trouble is far beyond my imagination. She recruited young men to collect protection fees and promote dark doctrines. She did it in the capital of the empire under the noses of two imperial heads.
There was a lot of pressure, and Sandora still had an expression on her face that said, "That's just her, just get used to it." It turned out that we were leading her to visit the Shadow City as a guide, and for the second half of the day, it was basically this female hooligan who was full of enthusiasm.
The city was running wild, but Sandora and I followed closely behind like my parents.
Finally, the first day was over: it was getting close to evening, luckily Bingtis knew where to eat, Sandra would be so hungry that she would go berserk if she continued shopping.
"Hey, Chen, I'm very happy today, but now I'm a little bored! What are we going to do tomorrow? Is there anything else interesting in Shadow City? Those paladins in Stormwind City paid the protection fee too happily! Don't you think so?
There are those skeletons in the undead area, and they will kneel down immediately when they see me, so there is no challenge at all!"
Say it again? Say it again, and I will send you and Cicaro to buy orders under the Erli Bridge tomorrow, so that you can see what a challenging career is!
The soul of complaining in my heart was almost burnt to ashes. Next to me, Sandora was grinding her teeth. I had to comfort her quickly: "Be good, go home for dinner now. Just be patient. It's not easy for people to build these houses..."
…”
"Ah, by the way, Chen, I just noticed that the time and space control hub here seems to be preparing for some big move. It has temporarily built so many time and space lines. What are you going to do?"
"Well, it turns out that you can directly see the space changes?" I expressed my envy and hatred for Bingtis's ability for a moment, "Actually, it was just a small amount of attention, and then Sandora enlarged it..."
At the moment, I told Bingtis about the upcoming grand gathering of thousands of worlds and races (...). This is not a secret, and with the skills of the gods, they may be able to see it with their eyes if they want to know.
"Wow, that sounds interesting," Bingtis's eyes immediately shone, "The circulation of the worlds? Your mortal race is really much stronger than those old men's alliance, and you can come up with such interesting ideas! In this case,
Maybe I can give you some advice... Hey! Don't look at me like that! I am serious about helping you this time!"
