After finishing the communication, Mi Lai sat at the mahogany table that she had just moved into the mansion and thought for a long time. After finding a reasonable way to carry out the tasks assigned by Lu Yu, she raised the corners of her mouth and stretched happily.
The afterglow of the setting sun slowly slipped away from the window sill, and the carved furniture, which was lit by the red rays of light and whose craftsmanship surpassed the sky, disappeared into the darkness.
After sitting in the unlit room for a long time, Mi Lai gathered his perceptions from all directions, and his golden eyes returned to normal in just a blink of an eye.
After being asked to establish an information channel belonging to the Dawn Territory, Milai returned to the caution and rigor of when he was still the incarnation of radiance.
The character is a fleeing businessman with nothing but money. Milai always appears in this image in public. The nobles and businessmen of Wupu City quickly accepted her joining - no one dislikes a person who has not yet established an interest with them.
Conflict, a beautiful lady who likes to throw coins around.
The Solonian Civil War did not affect the prosperity of Wupu, a large port trading city. A large number of Solonian nobles who fled south during the infiltration period gathered here to wait for the outcome of the civil war. This allowed Milai to always easily obtain information from them.
Little useful information.
But just having a good relationship with this group of drunken, drunken trash is not enough. These gentlemen, who have no worries about food, drink and no need to take risks, know nothing about the changes in the magic tide.
Milai, who dressed herself as an adventurer, stepped into a crowded tavern in Wupu City. She had no place to sit, so she leaned against the bar and listened to the words of the people coming and going under the influence of alcohol.
This job is very challenging for anyone who has just started this job. There are many adventurers who brag and fart. How to distinguish the truth of what they say requires a certain degree of discernment. However, the former glorious incarnation has to do with a large number of adventurers.
This is not a problem for Millais who I have dealt with.
"Let me tell you, I met a real ghost yesterday, near the flocculation forest."
"Why do you even say that to Nuer? You are still a mithril adventurer. You couldn't be too happy and drunk after completing the commission."
Noor was about to raise the wooden cup filled with ale and drink it down. When he heard that he was questioned, his eyes widened and he shouted angrily with the strength of the wine: "I never drink when executing a commission. With Parson,
That guy is different!”
"Come on, that guy Parson claimed to have seen countless white cotton wadding floating in the sky, with vague human faces inside. This has been confirmed to be a story compiled by a certain bard, and he
But he bit him to death with his own eyes... If you ask me, there is no shame in not completing the commission, but saying that I accidentally discarded the trophies that I was commissioned to recover because I was frightened is a bit ugly to be so stubborn."
The tabletop turned over, golden slurry splashed, and the two wooden cups rolled far away on the ground.
Milai, who was holding the mead, slowly turned around, leaned against the bar, and looked at the tense group of adventurers with interest. If his guess was correct, the other main character in the conversation, Parson, was among them.
.
Mirai naturally knew that what happened to Parson was very likely to be true. She had witnessed the resurrection of the spirit body in the Dawn Land with her own eyes, but after leaving the Dawn Land, she discovered that Meira still knew nothing about it.
No one stopped the two groups of adventurers from having a lively movie. It would be perfect if someone had a fight while drinking to add to the fun. As long as magic was not used, the tavern owner would not pay attention. This kind of thing is nothing new.
Taking advantage of the commotion, Millet deliberately bypassed the waitress in front of him and walked up to a young man who kept glancing at him secretly from the corner of his eye.
The slightly green young waiter couldn't control his expression and emotions. Just when he was face to face with Mi Lai, he wiped the wine glass a little slower. When Mi Lai smiled and bought a full glass of mead from him, he
His face turned red unnaturally.
"Have you been working here?" The drinker on the side left, and Mi Lai finally got a chair. She sat on it, holding her chin and staring at the young man.
"It should be...a year?" The young man was a little surprised, and his voice was a little out of tune as he was completely unprepared for communication.
"Oh, there are people coming and going here. You must have heard a lot of interesting and useful news. I would like to know if there are any outstanding summoners in Wupu City?"
Mi Lai did not deliberately suppress her voice. When the fight ended, there was a brief moment of silence in the tavern, so everyone nearby heard her words.
"Are you looking for a summoner?"
"Yes, a very outstanding summoner."
"For the commission?"
"Not entirely, more because I want to verify a rumor with him."
Although the summoner has returned to the public eye after experiencing the Disaster of Infected Spirits, everyone's attitude towards him is still: the future is promising, but we will wait and see for the time being.
The adventurers still don't want to see the summoner. It involves the life and death of themselves and the team. The assistance that the summoner can provide still needs time to test. In this kind of event, if you make a mistake, you will get a chance to communicate with the gods. No one dares to take the risk.
Summoner, rumors, and special search were three key words that aroused the interest of many people in the tavern.
"Can you please tell me what kind of rumor it is?" someone shouted.
Millai was very grateful to this impatient "helper". She said: "I met a magician in the wild who had just returned from Broken Gold City. He told me that the glutton was suspected to have been defeated."
"Glutton? Which glutton?"
"As you said, in the entire Mela, who else can be called a glutton except the summoner glutton?"
"He was defeated? No way. I heard that at the recent celebration, he defeated some summoning masters with overwhelming force."
"You'd better make it clear. The word "suspected" sounds ambiguous."
After Millais realized that his emotions and curiosity had been successfully aroused, he narrated the story he had just made up in a passerby's voice, "I just heard about it too."
"It is said that the magic wave brought huge changes, causing the glutton's originally powerful summons to be unable to be summoned. The changes in the summoning ritual even made him have to explore the knowledge of summons from scratch. He was completely on the same starting line. He was not even able to defeat
A rising star.”
"I thought it was impossible at first because it sounded really outrageous, so I have been looking for summoners to try to verify the theory of this huge change."
Everyone no longer paid attention to the two people who had just used force, and everyone was thoughtful.
"This...could it be true?" Someone raised his head and looked around, trying to find an answer.
"It should be true...the huge fluctuations in summoning are indeed real." Someone from a team of adventurers sitting in the corner said, "There are people in our team who have learned the summoning technique from the Infested Spirit. It lasted for about thirty days.
Recently, during a hunt, his summons disappeared out of thin air without warning, and for several days, the summons was full of instability."
"Didn't those summoning masters say that Gluttony had tampered with the summoning template given to everyone?"
"No way, there are really people who believe what those so-called 'leaders' say and can do things like using templates to defraud money. You can't believe even a hair of what they say!"
"So, more than thirty days ago, the magic wave brought some new changes to the summons... The knowledge mastered by gluttons is invalid, doesn't it mean that the knowledge mastered by those families is also meaningless?"
The magicians all showed joy, they knew exactly what this meant.
Each wave of magic brings huge changes, and there are a lot of records of changes in the magic system. Summoning was dead before this, and now the number of summoners is basically half a bucket of water that was only temporarily learned after being soaked in disasters, and the knowledge barrier has not yet been established.
In the construction, everyone is on the same starting line, so is there any hope that you can get ahead and become the first?
The traditional professions have been overwhelmed, and the fluctuations brought by the magic wave will not completely collapse their system. The small group of people who want to be at the top need to invest an astonishing amount of time and energy, but summoning is completely unavailable.
It's fertile land for development, but no one has rolled on this track yet!
Milai admired the excitement and excitement flashing in the eyes of many magicians with satisfaction. She knew that most of her mission had been completed. Next, she only needed this wind to spread to various places with the free adventurers.
Mi Lai didn't have any psychological pressure on belittling her lord. She had confirmed from her words that he didn't care about his reputation. Becoming a villain or becoming a background in the story would not affect Lord Lu Yu's mood.
The same trick didn't work for Mi Lai the second time. After arriving at the second tavern, she changed her "face" and still leaned against the bar, silently collecting the breeze blowing from the bottom.
"They're here again..."
"Haha... I won't talk about it for a long time. It's really disappointing."
The mutterings from the people around him made Mi Lai turn around. Four young men in purple gowns walked through the bustling crowd of drinkers and ordered four glasses of ale at the bar. However, they did not wait for the bartender to serve the drinks and walked separately to the door of the pub.
Every corner.
The nearby drunken people noticed that they were approaching and picked up the wine and food on the table as if they were avoiding the plague. If possible, Mi Lai felt that they were not even willing to make eye contact with these four people.
After a busy day, the adventurers, who were wandering on the edge of life and death and were in desperate need of relief, would actually stay away from such a group of people who seemed to be weak. Reminiscent of the fight in the previous tavern, this wonderful scene aroused Milai's strong emotions.
interest.
She pursed her lips at the youngest girl among the four, and asked the bartender sideways: "Who are they, and why are people here so afraid of them?"
The adventurers who came here to get drunk were generally reluctant to drink the more expensive mead. They just glanced at it and the bartender provided a service attitude corresponding to Millai's spending power.
"The guest probably just came to Wupu City not long ago and doesn't know much about the features here."
"The characteristic you are referring to is the four-person group that uses rich body language to use the pub as a stage to deliver passionate speeches with powerful voices?"
The bartender joked: "We are happy to accept the free resident clown's performance, but unfortunately, their performance is not recognized, which troubles us very much."
"Tell me?"
"Has the guest ever heard of the Forbidden Demon Sect?"
This is not a name that is unfamiliar to Mi Lai. She has dealt with related incidents during her glorious incarnation.
Generally speaking, the Forbidden Demon Sect believes that magic is the problem that causes huge differences. As long as the use of magic is suppressed and controlled, most of the current conflicts can be solved.
This sect, which seems to be completely opposite to magicians, has magicians as its core members, and their ranks are not low. This makes many magicians laugh at the Forbidden Magic Sect in the hope that everyone will put down their weapons and become the world's leader.
The strongest.
No one really takes the Forbidden Demon Sect seriously, and the magicians don't even bother to end the dispute. Magic exists in this world, and you can use it at will. They will only repeatedly promote their own ideas and how much trouble a substandard organization can cause.
of waves?
Others may not know this, but the Theocracy, which has always been sensitive to religions and beliefs, has conducted investigations. Since the birth of the Demonic Sect, which has been ridiculed by magicians, the number of its followers has increased year by year.
This is not something that can be fooled by "fooling the people," but reflects the current ambivalent mentality of ordinary people wandering between hopelessness and desire.
Smart people naturally know that it is impossible to hope that the strong will put down their weapons and restrain themselves, but for those who are desperate, the comfort provided by the Forbidden Demon Sect is as warm as the sun in the sky.
The Theocracy has not banned other sects and beliefs in the country, but the harsh missionary environment has left the Forbidden Demon Sect with no market at all. They often face a fatal question: "If magic is the root of all problems, then the brilliance of possessing magic
God, isn’t he an evil god?”
It would be okay if you are facing a sane believer under the guidance of Laurent, but if you meet a fanatic believer, if you answer this question incorrectly, the people waiting for the Demonic Sect will only be endless.
Unlike the Theocracy, Solon does not have a single dominant religion in the true sense. Here, the major sects are full of vitality, and all kinds of earthly religious beliefs emerge in an endless stream, some of which are related to the ones that defrauded Seychelles.
It’s no different from a junk church trying to get parents’ money.
Therefore, this is indeed the first time that Mi Lai has seen the Forbidden Demon Sect preaching. Their preaching is simple and direct. They go wherever there are many people. They don't care about the eyes of outsiders and don't mind cynicism. They remain silent in the face of anger and indifference and only care about themselves.
Doing your own thing.
Like stones that suddenly appeared in the river, the hustle and bustle of the tavern was temporarily stagnant due to them. The adventurers who were forced to listen to the preaching content waited impatiently for them to leave so that they could enjoy their wine and meat.
Like Sera, Miley does not believe in God. The person closest to God in her heart is Laurend. For him, Miley, who is a half-breed siren, joined the radiant incarnation to protect a lie that she knew well.
Just for more people who need the comfort it provides.
Milai, who had no interest in faith after leaving the Theocracy, almost sneered in front of the girl who took out the scroll and walked towards him.
The girl seemed not to be surprised by this. She smiled and said: "We are taciturn people who work for those who cannot awaken. It would be an honor to be recognized by you. Is this lady interested in learning more about the Forbidden Demon Sect?
