To be honest, it is very happy to meet an old friend in a foreign country, especially one who still owes me money and has promised to pay back the interest...
[System: This is enough, are you done yet?]
Well, back to the topic, I finally don’t have to fool those goblins to earn living expenses, which can be regarded as saving a lot of energy. After all, those goblins are also very dissatisfied and difficult to deal with.
But their efforts had another effect. The belief in the God of Law, the Sleepless Man, was greatly spread.
Of course, it is impossible to expect them to actively promote the concept of legality. Even if the legal teachings that strictly prohibit crime are very helpful to goblins whose personal strength is low and fragile, they will do anything for money and have long been walking on the edge of legality and illegality.
, how could he take the initiative to cause trouble for himself?
What they spread was another doctrine belonging to the Sleepless Ones - the contract.
This priesthood obtained in Oran has not had time to be accepted by human society, but the goblins have already used it carelessly. The "insurance" is obviously a kind of contract, and the protection of the "weak" and the recognition of the contract by the true god make the goblins
We welcome this new thing very much.
Just a little bit of a problem.
"Dear God of Insurance, please listen to my prayer and let me sell more insurance today."
Okay, let’s forget the God’s name is wrong. The God of Insurance is not the God of Commerce. Why should he bless you with smooth business? Oh, I’m wrong... What does the God of Insurance mean? He actually didn’t send down any divine punishment.
?Is the Sleepless Man a tolerant god? Absolutely impossible.
"Fortunately, I got the name of God wrong and my prayer was invalid, otherwise..."
Well, someone has told the truth. This kind of prayer with the wrong name of God is like dialing the wrong number. It is naturally meaningless, but it can definitely anger any clergy who sees such blasphemy.
.
But sometimes, the false can be confused with the true, and certain wrong concepts can really affect the concept of the true God itself when integrated to a certain extent. In order not to be called the god of insurance and the sleepless person in the future, I plan to
As soon as we return, let the Law Church take action.
At least, we can't let the goblins mess around like this. Perhaps, we can try to get involved in a business that is sure to make money, such as insurance.
But now. This contract with the God of Law engraved on it is undoubtedly much easier to use than the devil's contract. In order to make these contracts more effective, those hard-working men actually built a contract with the God of Law in Carol.
In the church, the sculpture of the Sleepless Man is even more golden...well, it's just golden paint. They can't bear to part with the lovely gold for useless decoration.
Although I have some objections to the fact that more and more goblins regard him as the god of insurance, I must admit that while they spread new contracts such as insurance, they have indeed expanded the priesthood and domain of the God of Law, which is considered a selfish act.
Great thing.
"Perhaps, discuss with the goblins to set a contract wholesale price, and add a condition to let them promote the complete teachings of the God of Law. With their ability to bring business to other dimensions, it should be very effective."
As I was thinking, a scene suddenly appeared in front of my eyes. A goblin wearing a suit and a gentleman's hat knocked on your door politely and handed over a business card.
"Excuse me. Do you know the Sleepless Ones? Don't know? That's great... Oh, no, what a pity, our Church of the Sleepless Ones... If you join now, you will also receive a three-year accident.
One insurance. If you add 100 gold coins, we can also apply for a VIP membership card for you and upgrade it to accidental explosion insurance for free."
I thought that if this terrible scene came true, I was afraid that the clergy of the Law Church would be equated with the ubiquitous insurance salesmen. In order to prevent Sleepless Man from being regarded as the god of psoriasis advertising, I immediately decided to give up this idea.
But the most important thing now is still...
"Ahhh. When will the 'world' be returned to me?"
The legendary mission was triggered, and the points given must be quite a lot, but what I didn’t expect was not to kill the earth elemental god Ummdiroken, but an optional mission of “Two dragons entangled”, which made me pray.
Choose between your empire and the country of mages, and improve your reputation as much as possible.
Obviously, if I choose the country of mages and drag them into the water, it would be a good thing to build up as much reputation as possible in this war against Omdiroken.
The reward given is also a large amount of points that I need most. If I choose to kill Omdiroken to improve my reputation, there will be no shortage of earth element materials to build a perfect "world" as trophies.
But I'm not happy at all, because this optional task obviously implies something.
"The country of mages and the Bayer Empire are at war?"
Hearing this, Kayid nodded bitterly.
"Although there is no full-scale war, there have been hundreds of conflicts on the border within a month, hundreds of spies are caught every day, and the opponent's legions are also clearly mobilized. It seems that it is only a matter of time before Bayer declares war."
"What on earth was that Oros XIII thinking? He actually provoked a super empire war before the Holy War? Did he have his brain eaten by the devil?"
There is no need to ask more about the reasons. I still have some understanding of the Parliament of Truth. As long as the general system remains unchanged, their leaders basically have no interest in the country, reputation and the like. The country of mages has not changed its style for thousands of years.
Territory, there is basically no possibility of actively provoking a war.
As for the Bayer Empire... In fact, all human super empires basically have the same virtues. Pride and arrogance are natural. If there is a lunatic who thinks that he is the only emperor for eternity, the surrounding countries will suffer for hundreds of years, but each country
Super empires have a solid foundation, and it is very difficult to struggle. Fortunately, there are small countries that act as buffer zones between the major countries.
But I have also heard about Oros. He has been in office for more than thirty years, but he has always been a staunch hawk and has waged many foreign wars. Recently, he even surrendered to the Thirteen Kingdoms Alliance under the banner of Moon Horn, directly tearing up the Kingdom of Mage.
buffer zone.
"I guess I'm not crazy. I probably saw how busy other countries were during the jihad, so they could seize the time to expand."
"Hmph, do they think they can escape? They are stupid."
Kayid shook his head.
"Bayer is a landlocked country. There are no foreign races inside or outside the country. I am afraid that it is really difficult to involve them in this holy war. Our country of mages has spread too much, and they are probably targeting our technology.
It’s really a bit troublesome to come here.”
I opened my mouth. In the end, I didn't say anything. After all, there was an opening in the undead plane in the capital of Bayer. I couldn't explain the source of the information at all. If I said it casually, there would be endless troubles. Moreover, it couldn't be verified."
Will "history" and "future" really coincide?
It is worth mentioning that when I asked Renee to pass the news of the undead invasion to various countries in the name of the Donglan Principality, basically no one believed it, and there was a lot of ridicule and criticism.
"The Yankees said that the natural disaster of the undead is about to strike? Haha. It seems that they have been frightened by the defeated soldiers of Siro and let the natural disaster of the undead come. The disaster of eternal night for more than a hundred years has not done anything to us. What's more,
today."
"Dong Lan? The legendary Roland? Come to warn us of a new round of eternal night catastrophe? Oh, this is not a mouse coming to remind us that the granary is not safe. Are you sure you are not joking again?"
Well, I have done everything I can do anyway, and I have no control over whether you listen or not. But now, it is obvious that I have to make a choice.
"The country of mages, don't think about it, I already hate the stupid bastard emperor."
And after I made my choice, the cheating system actually gave me a benefit, allowing me to temporarily borrow the "world" three times, and also threw out a progress bar.
【11.7%,-3421】
The latter one is a completely irregular increase in debt points. The former one is incomprehensible.
But no matter how I asked, the system fell into an eerie silence. When the progress bar increased a little, my debt suddenly skyrocketed, which was not calculated in the way it said.
In desperation, I tried to experiment with the "world" once, and then I understood it instantly. Then I regretted it instantly... I wasted a rare opportunity.
The "world" is still empty, and the air is still freezing, but there is something more than before. At least the stability has been greatly improved.
"...Has the system changed its gender? Are you planning to take the tsundere route? It actually helped me. If I'm not mistaken, it's helping me stabilize and improve the 'world'. And it even asked me to make an IOU."
In terms of collecting money to do things, the system is reliable. It never works for free, but it has always adhered to the basic "principle" of not doing anything without charging money, and doing whatever it takes. This time, it would rather help in the name of debt, which is very easy.
People are surprised.
The system fell into a weird stagnation period. Not to mention that my questions were ignored, and nothing could be opened on the panel except the progress bar. It was just like a computer that crashed due to overloading, but from one side
, illustrates the importance of "the world", so important that the system puts aside everything and devotes all its efforts to perfecting it!
But being unable to use the system does not mean that I have nothing to do. On the contrary, in order to improve my reputation and adapt to future combat needs, I have done a lot of "little things" recently."
The Carol Arena is often a place where other races resolve their personal grievances. "Smart" mages never like the barbarian arena, but these days, it is crowded with mages.
At this time, a battle between the silver-armored warrior and the archmage was going on on the field. The mage kept building walls, trying to prevent the warrior from getting closer, while the controlled earth elemental warrior was also acting as a barrier.
"Crack!"
The earth wall that could resist the giant was actually knocked open. The warrior just lowered his head, raised his shield to protect his head, and ignored the secondary earth element summoned by the opponent.
"Boom!"
This time, the earth element of the newly raised earth wall was not solidified enough, so it was actually penetrated.
The mage who was caught off guard was still chanting a spell, but the sharp sword was already in front of him. The mage, whose face turned pale with fright, quickly raised his hands in surrender.
He took off his helmet and waved to the onlookers with a somewhat unfamiliar 59-style Paladin smile, which immediately aroused more cheers.
"It seems that I am still a treasure trove."
As a paladin who used to be a facade and sponsor, using his face to gain reputation was his specialty, but that alone was not enough.
So, I smiled and stretched out my hand to the loser, pulled him up, and began to explain the battle just now.
"It is indeed a good idea to hinder high-speed warriors with long-awaited earth wall traps, but sometimes it is too obvious. Just now, if you had erected a small stumbling trap under the earth wall, as long as the opponent loses balance, even just
One moment is enough to be a sure kill. Moreover, if you only care about the vertical wall, can't you dig a trap behind the wall? As long as it blocks the opponent's sight, the high-speed warrior just rushed through the earth wall and crossed the earth wall. He rushed too fast.
, it is very likely to fall directly into the pit.”
"Oh oh oh!"
Not only did that mage keep nodding with gratitude, but other onlookers also took out their notebooks and kept recording. Such combat skills and practical experience cannot be taught in any classroom because they are for powerful warriors.
"Academic mages have a bad habit. They always like to use gorgeous big spells to crush their opponents. In fact, the casting of high-level spells is too slow and obvious, and it poses little threat to experienced high-level warriors. As long as they are hit,
Position is critical, a small ice arrow can kill someone, a simple combination of low-level spells is the best combination to deal with high-level warriors."
Yes, this is a teaching battle, and it is also my attempt to increase my reputation. After all, in the world of mages, there are many people who can impart magic knowledge, but a practical mage who can impart combat experience and practical skills is destined to
Too few.
Yes, mage, although I play the role of a war-type professional in battle, I face them as a magic swordsman who also practices swordsmanship. This is the reason why they can accept me.
The teaching between the same mages is that even if you lose, you can accept it, but if the warrior keeps defeating the mages, it will undoubtedly cause unnecessary trouble.
As the senior brother of their highest archmage, Kayid, I am naturally their mentor, which reduces the hostility of the other party. And as an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years, no matter how outrageous I behave, I will be punished by them.
normalization.
"May the blessing of the Holy Light always be with you!"
As the brilliant holy light fell, the defeated mage's wounds began to recombine. Even his skin exuded a pinkish red color, but the reaction around him was dull. After all, this was not the first time.
"Thirteen holy treatments! Is this gentleman also working part-time as a legendary paladin?"
"Incredible,
Undoubtedly, the good reputation of the Paladin will make it much easier for me to increase my reputation. At least, the adventure stories I tell will be taken seriously by everyone.
While others were just surprised at the beginning, Kayid was so shocked that his jaw was dislocated.
"Roland, who is greedy for money, lustful, stingy, cunning, cunning and vengeful, can actually become a Paladin. Is the rumor that the God of Holy Light has gone blind true?"
Well, I am greedy for money, lustful and vengeful. Well, Kayid, you remember it very clearly. Well, in two days, I will let you see how I hold grudges.
"Thank you for your hard work. Those boys are convinced." Kayid, please continue to be happy. I will spread your reputation as a lolicon throughout the city for you.
I wanted to tease him, but suddenly, a galloping horse brought a messenger. Judging from the way he waved to me, the letter I had been waiting for had finally arrived.
"Kaid, it seems that the time has come and our plan is about to begin."
