Chapter 175 How can the body keep warm but the spirit be hungry?
In this battle of heroes, there are still displaced people.

Even if the heroes are noble and brave.

But who will transport their food, and who will build their tents?
At the king's order,

Whose families will be torn apart, whose wheat fields will be laid waste?
Even if you don't have to go to the battlefield in person, but you are conscripted to work as a laborer and a civilian husband, it is also a disaster.

At the beginning of the New Law Garden built by Norn, only the stone slaves of the Ibia family prayed there, but when the noon prayers were over and the food was distributed, they could always see the exhausted people recruited from other places. The slaves looked at the scene inside helplessly.

"Give it to them."

Norn said.

"But... Prophet, if you distribute it to them, more and more people will come."

A stone slave said worriedly.

"God is merciful to us,
The wheat that grew in the field last year will grow again next year,
Life is obtained from parents, but it will not be obtained again in the future.

How can man be willing to lose his life in order to keep the wheat? "

The Prophet held his priest's staff and taught gently.

The stone slaves who wanted to dissuade the prophet were speechless for a moment, not knowing how to refute.

So, the prophet distributed the bread in his hand and the porridge in the pot to the hungry slaves.

The slaves happily took the bread and porridge, knelt down on the ground, and thanked Norn for his kindness.

on the second day.

As the stone slave said, more slaves came to the New Law Garden to ask for food.

Norn asked people to bring more food from the Ibia family and distribute it to the slaves who came over.

The slaves recruited from other places gradually began to gather at the abandoned temple. After sharing bread and porridge, they would often see Norn telling the history to the stone slaves of the Ibia family.

At first, these slaves just listened in, as a way to pass the time.

But when Norn recounted the history of the elves, the slaves were involuntarily attracted by the twists and turns of the plots, and what Norn said was different from the Supreme God of Cargaus. The passage of time gradually penetrated into the hearts of the people.

Whenever they heard the legend of God saving the world, the slaves could not help crying bitterly. When they heard the embrace of Alesto and Deltullian, they were very excited, and when they heard that the elves killed the angels of God. , and couldn't help but sighed.

Under the influence of their ears and eyes, those foreign slaves gradually respected Norn as a prophet.

The slaves gathered in the abandoned temple, so naturally it was impossible not to attract the attention of the nobles.

After the aristocrats learned about this incident, some slandered it endlessly, and some took it as a ridiculous topic of conversation.

They said that Nauen was just a particularly favored slave, but Kasas was like a brother to him, and now he squandered the wealth of the Ibia family. Fortunately, the Ibia family was rich enough to allow him to do good deeds without asking for anything in return.

But his good deeds are nothing, what he has done is just sitting and eating, and once he dies, the slaves here will disperse.

The nobles thought the norn dull,
In truth, the norn knew what they got.

Others thought he got nothing,
But Norn knew that he converted the displaced people to the Lord.

Just like the old priests did.

In those once numb eyes, there is hope and hope gradually.

Therefore, whenever believers are angry or lost for those words,
Norn then taught:

"God's salvation, endowed with our souls,

In that case,

How can you keep your body full and warm, but your spirit hungry and cold? "

………………

Among the stone slaves gathered in the abandoned temple.

Norn suddenly discovered that some stone slaves had worked for the orcs. In the previous battles, they were sometimes taken away from the three-eyed ape-men by the orcs, and sometimes from the hands of the orcs by the three-eyed ape-men. go.

Even if it is surprising, it is not surprising. After all, it is normal for the stone slaves who transport food to be robbed by each other.

But what surprised Norn even more...

There are several stone slaves who claim to have seen the gem that fell from heaven.

"At that time... just by taking a look, I saw endless wealth. There were gold, silver and jewels everywhere, as if they were hidden in gems."

"I, what I see is different from yours. I saw a beautiful woman lying inside the gem, tempting me and attracting me to come forward."

.......
Norn listened carefully to their narrative.

After asking for details several times, he found that the gem seemed to make people see what they wanted the most, and as long as they gently stretched out their hands, it seemed that all wishes would come true.

"Wish fulfillment..."

Norn couldn't help but think of Slaer, who is constantly fulfilling people's wishes through contracts.

And that gem that fell from the sky was undoubtedly transformed from Slaer's star.

"Could it be that...Slae intentionally stirs up disputes among nations through gems and people's desires?"

"Why did he do this, behind this war, what exactly does he want to do?"

........................ ..
........................ ..
For dozens of days, the heroes of Aga fought repeatedly with the allied forces of the orcs.

After several battles, they were all indistinguishable, and it was impossible to tell the winner, and it ended with both sides retreating at the same time.

The protracted war inevitably made Queen Isis feel worried.

The rewards for motivating the soldiers, the rewards for the heroes, and the military pay needed to maintain the war made the originally substantial treasury of King Aga become thinner day by day.

Queen Isis tossed and turned for this, and often couldn't sleep at night.

But her son was the exact opposite. The young king inherited his father's character of ignoring government affairs, and he was greedy for pleasure all day long.

Therefore, the major events of the kingdom are squeezed on the queen's shoulders.

Above the court, Prime Minister Ibia noticed her worry and suggested:

"Queen, why don't we send someone to negotiate with Lord Morrowind to bring about peace for the kingdom.

In this way, you don't have to worry so much. "

Today's Ibia has long surrendered to the queen's authority and is waiting for the queen's orders. Only in this way can he cling to his position as prime minister.

After hearing the proposal, Queen Isis said:

"I have planned this for a long time, but who am I going to send to meet those savage orcs?"

"Casus, my son, he can speak eloquently and judge the situation. Moreover, he brought back the golden bull horn for you, remember?"

Queen Isis nodded slightly when she heard this.

In her eyes, Casas does not have a problem of trust.

Now, if she can trust Prime Minister Ibia, she can also trust Casas.

"Then leave it to him."

Suddenly, Queen Isis thought of something and continued:
"And Norn."

Nine years ago, when Casas returned to the Kingdom of Aga, he reported all his experiences to Queen Isis.

Although those experiences were too legendary, as if they had come out of a myth, when Queen Isis saw the golden bull horn in her hand, she believed it.

Therefore, Queen Isis is aware of Norn's status.

A prophet sent an envoy to the allied army of orcs will surely bring peace to Aga.
