Dominate the Treacherous Realm

Chapter 1019 Chapter One Thousand and One Church Bank

　　 After dinner, I began to prepare the contents of the evening class. The arithmetic class every Wednesday is one of the few moments when Jenkins can feel that he is contributing to the church. In the autumn, he was nervous every time he stepped onto the podium, but then he recovered his normal mind, because he noticed that most people couldn't figure out what he was talking about.

　　Fini’s hard work is one of the important reasons to motivate Jenkins to give lectures, but apart from girls, it’s not that there are no other believers working hard. Jenkins usually arrives in the classroom half an hour or 20 minutes before the lecture, so that those who have questions have the opportunity to ask questions.

　　 Although most of the problems are very basic, sometimes interesting problems can be encountered. Today I talked about multiplication again. After Jenkins finished most of the content, he saw that it was still early, so he posed an interesting question to the audience.

　　 "We are now assuming a situation. I want to give some rice to one of you as a gift for listening carefully."

　　 uses such an assumption to attract the attention of the audience.

　　 "There are two options now, one is to choose such a big pocket directly, and I will fill it up."

　　 He drew the shape with his hands, and it was probably a face pocket of normal capacity.

"Another option, I would use a chessboard. On the first day I put one grain of rice in the first square of the board, two grains of rice in the second square on the second day, and four grains of rice on the third day. In short, every day The number of meters placed is double the previous day, until the last grid, which is the 6th/4th grid. May I ask, which option is most suitable?"

　　Of course no one will answer him. In fact, no one will take the initiative to answer any questions raised by Jenkins in the classroom. People seem to think that it is an act of disrupting the order of the classroom.

　　 Jenkins waited for a while, and saw the cat lying next to Fini, thinking that if the cat is allowed to choose, he must have it all.

　　 Seeing that no one was speaking, the people who were listening carefully just raised their faces and looked at him, so they turned around and picked up the chalk, and began to calculate how many meters could be obtained by the second option.

　　 No one understands the calculation process of his geometric series, but it doesn’t matter. Jenkins just wants to make a conclusion so that the people in the classroom can understand how terrible numbers will be obtained by multiplying multiple times.

　　 It's a pity that the number representing the number of rice grains has too many digits. Most people can't even read it, only knowing that it is a quantity that they will never have access to in their lifetime. Jenkins didn't know if he was successful in giving this example, but it seemed that Fei Ni was frightened by the result. After class, she quietly asked him whether the chessboard that can hold so many meters is the space objects in the story that contain everything.

　　 Jenkins couldn't answer this simple question.

　　 After the course, Jenkins stood on the podium to pack things, and everyone who left would greet him in a respectful tone. Fini had trot away and was about to go to bed. Jenkins lowered his head and called his cat to wake him up a little bit and stop sleeping.

　　 "Did you know, too much sleep can actually make cats fat."

　　 Jenkins popularizes some knowledge with his cat that he has forgotten where he heard it.

"Meow?"

　　 This is an obvious interrogative tone, but it seems that the cat seems to think this is Jenkins' nonsense.

　　 Originally planned to go directly to Miss Bevanna, and when she was about to leave the podium, she saw Bishop Parrod walking over from the last row of the classroom. Although there are doors at the front and back of the lecture hall, the back door is locked during class, which means that the bishop can only sit here before class and spend two hours listening to Jenkins standing on the podium to explain elementary multiplication. .

　　 "Oh, Bishop, I'm so sorry, I didn't notice you, there are too many people sitting in the back, maybe you should be sitting in the front."

　　 He made a little joke, and the old man also smiled and signaled that Jenkins did not need to leave. The conversation could be conducted in this classroom with only two people and one cat.

　　 "Jenkins, what you said is really good. It reminds me of my days in school many years ago. If Mr. Rokol, who taught us mathematics, was still alive, I am afraid he would be almost a hundred years old."

　　 He shook his head, dispelling the memories of the past:

"Don't talk about this, I'm looking for you for the church. Oh, before that, I want to say that the mystery of mathematics is really fascinating. The example of putting the meter on the chessboard is very good. This and' The basic concept of the Fabry scam is similar. One change, two, two, four, four, eight, and within a few rounds, a huge number can be accumulated."

　　 Jenkins also didn't want to discuss this issue. He always hated discussing everything about the "Fabry scam" with others.

　　 The bishop is still talking to himself. He mentioned the Fabry scam because the Church of the Sage finally made a decision to open a formal church bank.

　　The advantage of church banks is that they have extremely high credibility, but the disadvantage is that they only absorb deposits from believers. Prior to this, the church also had functions similar to banks, such as helping believers save money, or temporarily borrowing money, but the formal church bank must not be limited to this.

　　 Given that the person who knows finance and banking best is Jenkins Williams, this incident finally fell on Jenkins.

　　 "Will I be asked to form a bank?"

　　 Jenkins asked embarrassedly, he doesn't have so much time.

"No, no, you are still too young, and there are other important things to do. The Holy See hopes that you can give a plan, and you can write some of your views on modern banks at will. The church should use this as a support to start a bank. "

　　 But even if it’s just that, Jenkins is under a lot of pressure. He knows very little about the banking industry. If he writes a plan only on the things he knows, he will definitely have trouble in the end. But the people in the church trust Jenkins' abilities, and they don't know whether he thinks that he will be able to give a good plan if he is favored by the sage, or because Jenkins's performance is too dazzling in the Fabry deception.

　　 But fortunately, Jenkins has friends, and he has very reliable friends. Now Alexia of Ruen is preparing to assist Dolores to form the kingdom's new financial and financial department. If this matter is entrusted to them, it will surely get a good result.

　　 "Just do it, Alexia won't let me down."

　　 Jenkins had already pushed the matter out in his heart, so when he said goodbye to the bishop, his complexion had returned to normal. This is an era of great change. Although Jenkins also wants to participate, he has to find what he is good at to participate, and finance is obviously not good at him.

　　 "Then what am I good at......"

　　PS: The laptop keyboard is broken...

Chapter 1020 Chapter One Thousand and Two Collective Funerals

　　 Fighting courses are unremarkable, but Jenkins inquired from Miss Bevanna that the entrance to the mirror world on the outskirts of the city has decided to close permanently.

　　 After measuring the information provided by Jenkins and Miss Cape, the Orthodox Church finally believes that the mirror world is an area that mortals should not explore. For the peace and tranquility of the material world, all the secrets of the mirror world will be permanently sealed in dust, and the story of the circus will be lost forever.

　　 This is the right decision. Greed has not swallowed mortals. This will open up a way for mortals to move on.

　　 The next day was Thursday. Early in the morning, Jenkins found a letter from Attorney Bell, who lives at No.1 St. George Street, in his mailbox.

　　【Beloved Baron Williams:

　　 Good day,

　　 Now we sincerely invite you to attend the Neighbors' Gathering held at 1 St. George’s Avenue at 19:00 this Sunday to discuss the issue of street autonomy in the new year.

　　 I wish you all the best in your life on St. George Street.

　　Note: You do not need to bring gifts.

　　 your neighbor,

　　 Francis Bell]

　　 There are no stamps on the envelope, it looks like it was delivered to Jenkins' mailbox directly by the lawyer early in the morning. Probably because of the importance of Jenkins's identity, the tone of this letter is extremely formal, but in fact this kind of invitation does not require such a formal letter.

　　 In his pajamas, he checked the letters at the fence, and heard that the door of the neighbor's house was also opened. It was not that Mr. Goodman was going out to work, but Mrs. Mistral Frante, the neighbor on the other side, appeared.

　　 This middle-aged woman has very irregular work and rest. This is the first time Jenkins has seen her in the early morning. She also noticed Jenkins, who was checking the mailbox, and walked towards her door while saying hello.

　　 is not to go out, but to win letters and newspapers like Jenkins. Unsurprisingly, Attorney Bell also sent her an invitation letter. Jenkins and Mrs. Frante also talked about this matter, and then both thought that although the letter stated that there was no need to carry gifts, if they were really empty-handed It's too rude to go.

　　The day of the neighbor gathering is chosen on Sunday night, I think it is because of the schedule of your neighbors. Jenkins attaches great importance to this matter. He thinks that he will live on St. George Street for many years, so he decided to push back all the things that night as much as possible and come back to participate.

　　 He still has important things to do today. Half a month after the Evergreen Forest War, the Church of the Sage has processed the bodies of all the victims, and finally decided to hold a collective funeral for them. The funeral was held in the church cemetery in the outskirts. Father told Jenkins in advance, so Jenkins changed into a black formal dress suitable for the funeral atmosphere before going out.

　　 first took a carriage to the old father's antique shop. After receiving the old man, the carriage carried the two to the outskirts of the city. This is the carriage that Jenkins found at the intersection of St. George's Street. The coachman was happy for the guests who could be able to pull so far early in the morning.

　　 This is not the first time Jenkins has attended a funeral, so Dad doesn’t have to explain what he needs to pay attention to. The funeral began at ten in the morning, and the two arrived near the cemetery at eight thirty.

It is a Y-shaped intersection. The road from the carriage on the three roads leads to Nolan, on the left to Nolan’s Chik town and some small villages, and on the right is the cemetery and low-rise of the Church of the Sage. Hills, where there are many orchards.

　　 After paying for the car, he set off along the path towards the cemetery, and soon he saw the cemetery hidden in the morning mist. Jenkins and Dad were not the first to come, many people came earlier than them.

　　 Even if the funeral has not yet begun, the atmosphere at the scene is more depressing than imagined. After entering the cemetery, the old man and Jenkins did not communicate anymore, and soon he saw an acquaintance, walked over to chat alone, and left Jenkins there alone.

　　 Most of the people on the scene knew Jenkins, and those who saw him would greet him with a respectful tone. But Jenkins doesn't want everyone to do this, at least he doesn't want them to do it here. This will make him feel embarrassed, although he doesn't know where this emotion comes from.

　　 It was very impolite to bring the cat to the funeral, but Jenkins couldn't find anyone to look after it for a while. Now the chocolate pretends to be well-behaved and stepped on the grass, followed by Jenkins' heels. They had a unilateral agreement this morning. If the chocolate is well-behaved, then they can make some delicious food for him for dinner.

　　 Cat likes good food, but he hates being rejected by Jenkins, so he decided to behave very obediently during the funeral and let Jenkins know that his cat is a well-behaved cat.

　　 It was almost nine o'clock that everyone had come, and most of the gifted people in the church who did not have a job today came. A lot of ordinary clergy and high-level church officials also came, and Jenkins saw the bishop getting out of the carriage accompanied by a group of people. But he had to prepare a speech for a while, so Jenkins didn't bother him.

　　 Daddy is not there, Jenkins can only stand with Professor Burns. There are many topics in common between the two of them. In addition to Mr. Corpse's party tonight, they also talked about the Skeleton Sword.

　　Professor has always been interested in that sword. After the incident, he used church resources to find some information. Although it is not very successful, at least I have discovered some unusual things from the past years.

"The Skeleton Sword is not completely unknown. In fact, even in our time, there are still legends about the sword in many areas. I checked the works of some folklorists and found that it is related to the [Sword of Manipulating the Undead] 】Related stories or legends almost run through our history. In some versions of the story, the sword is still related to the gods."

"Is that right?"

　　 Jenkins was aroused. He put his hands on his chest and stood with the professor under the pillars of the church in the middle of the cemetery. Few people pass by here, this is a good place to talk.

"I think you should be vaguely aware that none of the religious texts has declared that your **** is the original god. Regarding the world and gods, the current mainstream view is that the great [the spirit of nature] [the mother of the earth] and [Eternal Blazing Sun] is the original god. But have you noticed any strange things? Why is the great [Death End] who has the most orthodox [death] priesthood excluded from the original god?"

Professor 　　 asked softly, a little afraid of talking about the gods wantonly. Jenkins thought for a while, shook his head and said he couldn't tell. He also understood that [Death] and [Everything] [Earth] and [Sun] should indeed have the same status. The professor pointed out this point is indeed strange.

Chapter 1021 The first thousand and three chapters of the two generations of death

　　 Under the pillars of the chapel, seeing Jenkins unable to answer, the professor changed another question:

　　 "Let me put it another way, the core priesthoods of the twelve righteous gods are arranged according to the month. What pattern can you find?"

　　"[Nature][Sun][Earth][Ocean][Night][Starry Sky][Fate][Mechanical][War][Knowledge][Travel][Death]..."

　　 Jenkins said these twelve words, and after thinking about it, he asked uncertainly:

　　 "It seems that the priesthood is gradually shifting from the objective world to the concept arising from the emergence of intelligent creatures...but the last one is [death]..."

　　 "December is the beginning and the end."

Professor 　　 added in time, seeing Jenkins still thinking, and said:

"This is easy to understand. Although this is the order from January to December, the end of the year does not mean the world is destroyed. This should actually be called the cycle from January to December. December is the end and the beginning. [Death ] It couldn’t be more appropriate to govern this month."

　　 "But if this is the case, it doesn't mean that [death] is in the same line as the priesthood of the original three gods from the perspective of month order."

　　 Jenkins finally came to this conclusion.

"Yes, the **** of death does have such qualifications, but there is no such great one among the original three gods. There are some very blasphemous legends in some secret classics. I hope you just listen to it and don't tell others. Our focus today is to talk about the Skeleton Sword..."

Professor 　　 looked around sneakily for a long time, and after making sure that no one was paying attention, he threw a spell to block the sound, and then put his mouth in Jenkins's ear and whispered:

　　 "The current **** of death is not the original **** of death."

　　 After saying this, he looked around again in horror, then bowed his head and prayed silently, and drew the sage's holy emblem on his chest. It took a while before he dared to speak again, but he seemed to regret what he had just said.
