With the 300,000 from the Ares Cult, Link won't have to worry about running out of money for a long time. Even if he goes to other towns to open schools and orphanages, there will be no problem.
As for the churches that the Ares Sect has given up, Link is planning to leave them alone for now. Although the Father God Sect has good combat capabilities, management talents are still very scarce and it is not appropriate to spread the manpower around. Anyway, with the property deeds in hand, Link is not afraid of others taking over the churches.
Grab it.
In just the past three days, the first batch of compensation from the Ares Cult has arrived. One hundred thousand solas and church property deeds in several towns were escorted by several carriages. The things there have been moved and the Father God Cult can receive them at any time. Obviously
It is compensation that has been prepared long ago.
But the remaining 200,000 Sola is not a small amount. Although the God of War Cult will not default on the debt, it cannot collect it in a short time. It will take a while. Link understands the difficulty of the God of War Cult, so he is very '
He said understandingly that Altaïr would continue to be a guest in the Cult of the Father and would release him once all compensation was paid.
Although the people of the Ares Cult were angry, they did not dare to show their anger, so they had to go back first with some of the redeemed prisoners.
After standing by the window and watching the Ares Cult leave, Link said to Altaïr who was standing next to him: "Those guys are gone. I'm afraid they never dreamed that the captives they brought back would be devout believers of God the Father, right?"
Altaïr said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Archbishop, their status in the church is not low. When the time comes, they will definitely be able to help you take down the entire God of War Cult without a single blow."
Link smiled and nodded, and then thought of something again. He couldn't help but laugh at himself and shook his head: "I am becoming more and more like those shady villains on TV. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing." As he said,
He looked at Altaïr again, "Forget it, let's not mention this. Altaïr, what happened to Assassin's Creed?"
Altaïr said: "Back to the Archbishop, I found some orphans from Chenko Town and other nearby places and prepared to train them. In addition, I also bribed some informants from other towns. With their information, we can basically master it."
First-hand information from nearby towns, but we haven’t had time to put down the line yet for places farther away.”
"Well, there is no need to worry about this. The loyalty of the people you have found is the most important. We are still very weak, so we cannot rush into many things. Those children you have found who do not have talents and talents, leave them to Jack, he will arrange them
, it just so happens that the school will be renovated soon, so let those children be the first batch of students."
Altaïr nodded: "Yes, Archbishop, don't worry, I know what to do."
After that, Link asked Altaïr to go down to do some work, but he threw himself into the work. However, it didn't take long for Jack to complain. The reason was that something happened to Reimu's problematic girl again.
After moving into the monastery, Reimu pestered Link every day and asked him if he wanted to work. He said he wanted to make money, and he asked for a salary of tens of thousands. People who didn't know better thought that Reimu wanted to be a high official.
The annual salary of a city lord is only ten thousand solas.
Link naturally wouldn't just hand over the money just because Reimu didn't have common sense, so he asked Aria to explain the common sense issues to Reimu, and then arranged some chores for Reimu, telling Reimu to make money first.
Work well done.
As a result, although Reimu did it, he gave up after only working for half a day. The reason was that the work was tiring and troublesome, and the salary was very low. Link thought that Reimu would be honest from now on, so he stopped asking.
But who would have thought that after Reimu accidentally discovered that believers would keep putting money into the donation box of the Father God Church, Reimu decisively made a new donation box and placed it there.
To put it simply, Reimu was robbing the Father God Cult’s money in an honest and open manner.
Of course Jack wouldn't ignore this kind of thing, but after he talked to Reimu about it, Reimu said unscrupulously that since the Father God Church can put the donation box, why can't she? So after talking to him, Jack also said
He couldn't get Reimu to take back the donation box.
Since Lingmeng is the high priest of Tianling Cult, Jack can't use strong methods, so he has to find Link to solve the problem.
After Link found out, he couldn't help but feel a headache. Reimu was a completely troubled child. Not only did he have no common sense, but he was also very shameless and had basically zero moral integrity. Faced with such a person, reasoning was useless. He could only use coercion to make her obedient.
.
Fortunately, although Reimu's character is deceptive, she would not go against Link as she shouldered the mission of Tianling Cult. So when Link strictly asked Reimu not to leave the donation boxes randomly, Reimu had no choice but to take her back in frustration.
box, and returned the money to the Father God Church - although no one would put money in it at all.
However, after that, Reimu often ran into the woods behind the monastery. She didn't know what she was doing, and she wouldn't tell her if asked. But as long as she didn't cause trouble to the Father God Church, Link didn't bother to care about her and let people stare at her.
She stopped asking questions after that.
Just like this, another day passed, and Sunday arrived. At nine o'clock in the morning, Link came to the Cathedral of the Holy Light for his weekly prayer class.
Solemn and magnetic prayers came from the open door of the church. Those believers outside who were unable to enter the church due to lack of space closed their eyes and listened to the prayers with pious expressions. The entire Holy Light Cathedral was filled with prayers both inside and outside.
A solemn and sacred atmosphere.
Suddenly, a small carriage drove over. The body of this carriage was based on dark red, with some dark gold decorations, giving it a dark aesthetic. At a glance, it was clear that the owner of the carriage was either rich or noble.
The two horses pulling the cart are completely black, tall and powerful, far more elegant than ordinary good horses, and will definitely make horse lovers drool after seeing them.
The carriage was driven by a woman with a black cloak on her back. Although the cloak covered her head and most of her body, the fair and delicate skin exposed showed that she was definitely not young.
The carriage stopped far away from the surrounding crowd. Suddenly, a sweet female voice that was a little childish but full of majesty came from inside the carriage: "Xingye, what's wrong? Why did you stop?"
The driving woman who was called Starry Night immediately turned around and replied respectfully in a magnetic bass: "Miss, the outside of the Holy Light Cathedral is full of believers. There are too many people who believe in Father God Link here, and many people can't get in.
I prayed outside, but the road ahead was blocked by those people."
"Oh? It seems that the Father's Church is doing quite well. Its prestige in its place of origin is comparable to those of the big churches." There was a hint of interest in this man's voice.
Xingye, who knew his eldest lady very well, immediately asked: "Miss, do you need me to disperse this group of people?"
The man in the car thought for a moment and said, "No, let's just leave it like this. We'll go there after there are fewer people. I also want to see if the miracles of the Father's Cult are really as miraculous as the rumors say."
"Yes, your will is everything to me."
At that moment, Xingye drove to the roadside and waited for the crowd to disperse.
After the bell rang at 12 noon, the weekly prayer class ended, and the believers immediately left with a reluctant but very fulfilling and peaceful mood.
However, for some unknown reason, these people didn't seem to see the luxurious carriage on the roadside. They all turned a blind eye to the car, as if the car didn't exist at all. What's even weirder is that when someone walks towards the carriage, they will
He stopped about ten meters away from the carriage and walked around. His expression looked like what was in front of him was not a carriage at all, but a wall.
No one noticed the strange scene. The carriage stopped there for a long time. It was not until almost all the believers left that the carriage started moving under the driving of Starry Night and drove all the way to the Cathedral of the Holy Light.
Several believers who left late at night were stunned for a moment when they saw the red carriage approaching. Then one of them asked the others in confusion: "Well, when did this carriage appear? Why didn't you notice it just now?"
Others were also full of doubts and could only shake their heads to express ignorance about this question.
Soon, the carriage arrived in front of the cathedral, and the congregant in charge of the reception immediately stepped forward and asked Xingye to drive the carriage to the parking lot. However, when Xingye made eye contact with the congregant, the congregant seemed to be possessed.
, stepped aside blankly, and Xingye got out of the car, opened the door, bent down to greet us and said: "Miss, we are here, you can come down now."
"Yes." The pleasant childish voice sounded again, and then, a loli-type girl who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old put her white little hand on Xingye's hand and walked out with Xingye's support.
The girl has lavender shoulder-length hair, a pink soft hat on her head, and a pink dress with many gorgeous decorations on it. She also has a red ribbon on her head, which is full of gorgeous and dark Baroque style.
.
In addition to her dress, the girl's appearance is also amazing. Her childish yet elegant face has a faint smile, and her jewel-like red pupils reveal a faint evil flavor.
On the whole, the girl seems to be an eldest lady from a wealthy family. She is beautiful, charming, and has an extraordinary temperament, but she also has a dark quality that makes it difficult to get close to her, or even dare not get close to her.
When many people who noticed the carriage saw the girl coming down, both men and women cast their eyes in amazement. Although the girl was still young, her temperament and appearance were irresistible. Even those who had seen Reimu could not look away.
Move away.
The girl ignored the gazes around her and looked up at the Holy Light Cathedral. Then her beautiful big eyes half-squinted: "Is this the Holy Light Cathedral? It's a strange feeling that I can't see through the essence of this church."
As soon as he said this, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of Xingye next to him, and then he asked in a deep voice: "Miss, can't you even see through it?"
"Well, it's really interesting. There is something in this small country place that I can't see through. This God the Father religion is quite interesting." The girl said, with a devilish smile on her lips, and immediately walked towards the church.
, and Xingye quickly followed.
After the two stepped into the cathedral, the stunned passers-by came to their senses and immediately began to talk about the master and servant pair. Compared with the believers, the congregants seemed more surprised, especially the priest who was responsible for receiving guests.
Everyone, he didn't understand why he backed away just now. Now looking at the luxurious carriage parked at the door of the church, he didn't know what to do, because the horse pulling the carriage was tall, strong, and very strong. As soon as he got close,
It would make a low cry in protest, and its sharp eyes were not like those of a domestic animal, but rather like a beast that chooses people to devour.
