Chapter 1,373 Chen Ruis information, the Holy Light Church was built
Compared with Zong Shen who is "ignorant of worldly affairs".
Chen Xuan has rich experience in communicating with Aboriginal people.
He picked up the wine glass and walked slowly to the table of the White Wolf Regiment mercenaries alone.
The cups and plates on the spliced wooden table were in a mess, and the meat bones and spilled wine made it look sticky and messy.
His arrival made several mercenaries stop talking decisively.
They all looked at him with cautious eyes filled with anger.
The Black Leaf Giant City is a border fortress, and the size of the garrison here far exceeds that of the average giant city garrison.
The security forces in the city are entirely rotated by regular troops.
It doesn't matter if there is a personal fight, as long as no one is killed.
However, fighting with weapons is expressly prohibited, and if caught, you will be tried as a felony.
It is said that the underground prisons of Black Leaf Giant City can hold tens of thousands of people at the same time.
It's dark and humid there, and after being bound by the rune chains, ordinary people can't escape.
During the long sentence, the only companions for the prisoners were those gutter rats.
In addition, when a war broke out in the giant black leaf city.
Those prisoners may also be temporarily recruited and sent to the battlefield as a prisoner army.
Directly used as cannon fodder to consume the enemy's offensive.
There are many rumors about the cruelty of Blackleaf Prison.
Even the most vicious mercenaries would not want to trample on the laws of the Black Leaf Giant City.
Then taste the prison and the whip.
However, precisely because of the strict laws of the Black Leaf Giant City, many people can come here to rest with peace of mind.
This also indirectly promotes the prosperity of the business and entertainment industries in the city.
The business of spring halls and taverns here is excellent.
Although these mercenaries of the White Wolf Regiment firmly believe that no one dares to cause trouble in the Black Leaf Giant City.
But nothing is absolute.
Maybe there are some stupid guys here who are stupid.
So they all instinctively entered a state of alert.
As a senior mercenary, those who are careless will not survive now.
And with their keen intuition, they all felt a faint threat from this mysterious man in a cloak.
This feeling is like seeing an epic monster that has not yet shown its fangs.
But based on the way he was holding the wine glass, the leader, Irvin Landa, the small leader who carried a pair of axes and had a Steppenwolf tattoo on his face, concluded that the other party had something to say.
"What's the matter, Your Excellency?"
So he gave several of his men a calm look.
Then he stood up and asked.
Chen Rui stood less than two meters away.
"I just wanted to buy a few people a drink."
"By the way, I have a commission that I would like to leave to you to handle."
He said with a smile and raised his hand in a toasting gesture.
Irving Landa's angry eyes changed several times, and finally he nodded.
"Let's sit down and talk."
"Bridger, stand up and give up your seat to your Excellency first."
He ordered a short silver-haired mercenary in a rough voice.
The seats at the table are limited. If you want to make room for Chen Rui, someone must give up your seat.
The little silver-haired man whose name was called nodded.
He wore a short sword on his waist, and behind him were two short spears wrapped in rags.
The sharp spear tip is included, and only a little polished silver can be seen.
If these two short spears fall into the hands of the lord, they will at least be a pair of purple rare equipment.
For the lords, the large number of aborigines with mature systems are the real treasure trove.
Chen Rui was not polite and sat on the seat of the little silver-haired mercenary.
That guy still had a strong sense of obedience and stood obediently behind the little boss Irvin Landa without saying anything and even his expression did not change.
Mercenaries are different from adventurers.
It is also different from the regular army.
They do the same bloody job as adventurers.
But the scale of the pomp and task is much larger than that of the adventurers.
It can be considered a large violent group.
So there is still a certain degree of discipline.
There are no rules, and good discipline is very important for mercenaries.
After Chen Rui took his seat, Irvin Landa asked straight to the point.
"What entrustment do you have?"
They are all dressed up as standard mercenaries.
There's nothing wrong with Chen Rui coming to find him.
It's just that they are destined not to accept this commission.
Because Irving Landa and his team came with a different mission.
Chen Rui did not answer the mercenary leader's inquiry.
In other words, the so-called commission was just an excuse from the beginning.
He put down the wooden bucket cup in his hand and took a grand look at their white wolf armbands.
"Are you from the White Wolf Group?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the mercenaries of the White Wolf Regiment, including Irwin Landa, became subtle.
"That's right."
"It's really interesting."
"There are also people in the northern region of the Kingdom of Avalon who recognize our mercenary group?"
After a brief silence, Irving Landa grinned his big yellow teeth and asked a new question calmly.
But Chen Rui sneered softly.
"hey-hey…"
"I find it interesting too."
"You can meet people from the White Wolf Group here."
"Okay, to make a long story short, I ask and you answer!"
Chen Rui's words made these White Wolf Regiment mercenaries realize something was wrong, and they were about to slam the table and get up.
He suddenly stretched out his hand.
There is a ring with the ring turned inward!
And the ring is actually a gray eye.
This eye was originally closed, but when he opened his palm.
The eyes also opened simultaneously.
Just for a moment, Irving Landa and his younger brothers all looked dull.
But the sluggishness only lasted for a moment, and they seemed to be back to normal.
At least it seems to have recovered on the surface.
"Let's go and talk in a quiet place."
Chen Rui's face showed a smile again, and he slapped a few big coins on the table.
Then he took the mercenaries of the White Wolf Regiment and the accompanying men and left the tavern.
Moved to a more quiet place.
The gray eyeball ring he showed just now is a rare heritage jewelry piece of equipment.
It’s called [Gray Beast Shaman’s Eye (Level 1 Heritage)].
In addition to several eye skills, it can also significantly strengthen Chen Rui's observation ability.
This allows him to better break through stealth and other states, and detect traps in advance.
In addition, it also comes with the effect of [Grey Beast Soul Control].
It can temporarily confuse and control certain targets. The success rate depends on the difference in mental strength.
He spent a lot of effort to get this piece of heritage jewelry.
This is because Chen Rui was assassinated in his previous life before the prologue catastrophe came.
Therefore, he is particularly sensitive to assassin abilities such as stealth and invisibility.
At the same time, consciously look for situations to counter similar means.
The enemy who sent assassins against him in the previous life mobilized troops to attack and annihilate him long before he set off. The reborn person also has great luck.
If it weren't for the existence of a person like Zong Shen.
If it were a web article about Earth, Chen Rui would be a perfect protagonist.
It's a pity that rebirth is essentially an information hang-up.
His care was not as good as Zong Shen's.
In this competitive world, Zong has the upper hand.
In a quiet place, Chen Rui asked what he wanted.
The effect of [Grey Beast Soul Control] was lifted, and a small part of their memory was erased.
It turns out that Queen Sandina has secretly tried to join forces with some of the Grand Dukes in the Kingdom of Avalon.
These mercenaries from the White Wolf Regiment were just part of the team that escorted the envoy.
"interesting."
"This is also a situation that never happened in the previous life."
"Speaking of which, the evolution of the current indigenous disputes seems to have accelerated a lot."
Chen Rui thought about it in his heart.
Compare the situation in the past life with the current life to find the key points of change.
"Well, let's keep going."
"This news may be useful to Zong Shen and become a bargaining chip for good relations."
When he thought about it, he didn't want to waste time here.
Decided to continue on the journey and use the giant city-level teleportation array to rush to the next stop.
With the help of [Gray Beast Soul Control] and Dinar to open the way, he can always use the teleportation channel smoothly.
Regarding this point, it does increase the efficiency of traveling.
But more importantly, he couldn't wait to meet Zong Shen.
The instinct in my heart to find a breaking point has become stronger and stronger.
Breaking the situation and changing the fate of the previous life is Chen Rui's true pursuit.
Under this premise, strength and development have become incidental factors.
…
at the same time.
Northeastern region of Avalon.
Zong Shen had already brought Aisia and Penny Lancaster to the open area in the forest in the northern part of the territory.
In comparison, the trees around here are indeed much sparser.
In front of the three people, a majestic building was rapidly taking shape.
Apparently it's under construction.
There is also a construction countdown above, with only a few minutes left to fully complete the project.
This is the Akaru Holy Light Church under construction.
The complete church is actually quite magnificent.
In front of the main building is a larger square where believers can gather.
There stands a huge and solemn statue of the Lord of Holy Light.
This statue holds an ear of wheat in its right hand and a dagger in its left hand.
Demonstrates force and kindness.
There are several rows of metal candlesticks placed in front of the statue, which should have been filled with white candles for prayer.
But now it is empty.
Ai Xia followed Zong Shen, her eyes looking expectantly at the Holy Light Church that was about to be completed.
Strictly speaking, this is the first Holy Light Church in Zongshen's territory.
It has a very important symbolic meaning for all Holy Light-based people, or those who have Holy Light faith.
Regarding this, even Aisia is no exception.
She has lived in the Holy Light Temple since she was a child.
Be nurtured and taught by nuns and priests.
Devout faith forms the basis of her strength.
It has almost become her instinct.
So if one day, Zong Shen and the Lord of Holy Light had a dispute.
I'm afraid Aisia will really fall into a dilemma.
But when that day comes, Zong Shen will at least have power comparable to that of a god.
Zong Shen did not speak, and the three of them seemed very silent.
They have been waiting here for nearly two hours.
Seeing that the building was about to be completed, Aisia suddenly spoke.
"Sir, please allow me to offer the first white candle to the statue of the Lord of Holy Light later."
She took the initiative to ask Zong Shen.
Zong was not offended by this request.
Since he claims to respect Aysia, he must also respect her beliefs.
This has always been an important part of Aysia's life.
Even if faith and religion are contrary to the autocratic centralization of the lord, so what?
It does not hinder his preference for Aysia.
Wariness against religion is broad.
But the preference for Aishia is in a narrow sense.
The two can coexist without conflicting with each other.
"sure."
Zong Shen replied with a smile,
This made Aisia quite touched.
Even Penny, who was standing behind her, showed admiration.
His calm attitude toward religion first reflected his own calmness.
As long as you have enough confidence, you can indeed ignore the hidden dangers brought by religion.
Moreover, Penny made a new discovery after looking at the base of the divine light-dominated statue.
"Lord Lord."
"The motto of the Holy Light's teachings seems to be engraved under that statue."
"This means that this statue itself has the ability to send out divine favors and convey divine will."
"She can serve as a carrier for the gods."
"I have seen similar records in ancient books."
"Such techniques are common in ancient churches."
After Penny made her choice, she was temporarily relieved of her knot.
She became more active and proactive than before.
After hearing Penny's words, Zong Shen nodded approvingly.
This matter is not a secret to him.
When Zhao was storing the Akaru Holy Light Church, the strategy module gave a hint.
It also said that the authority of the lord system can block the influence of the Lord of Holy Light on this church.
That's why Zong Shen decided to move this religious building back to the territory.
His decisions are the result of careful consideration.
Time passed by minute by minute.
As the countdown progresses towards 0.
The entire church building, which covers a huge area, has also become more solid.
Zong Shen has not waited so patiently for the construction to be completed for a long time.
This process of turning from illusion to solidification is still very magical.
In addition, complete buildings are very efficient to build.
It adds a bit of wonderful fun to the process.
This is one of the reasons why Zong Shen didn't get tired even after waiting here for a long time.
The moment the construction countdown reaches zero,
The tip of the church tower has also become completely solid.
This means that the construction of the Akaru Holy Light Church is completed.
And at the moment when the church was officially built.
There are countless projections of holy light in the sky.
They shine on churches and statues, making everything look dazzling.
Along with the light, there were bursts of Sanskrit chanting.
It was as if many holy children were singing soothing tunes in uniform and tender voices.
A white candle appeared out of nowhere in Aisia's hand.
After lighting it, he came to the statue with a pious expression.
Then he respectfully offered the white candle.
Zong Shen and Penny stood there, not taking any action, just watching silently.
