Chapter 447 Chapter 450 Clenches First

Rhett was right.

Dagon's ability to cast spells in the dive technique is indeed declining. He can no longer contact Ori by praying, and he can't open the spiritual passage to Ori. He was forced by the trial of the road of divine enlightenment. Became a "believer". A Spiritual God, especially a Lord God, cannot believe in other Spiritual Gods. This is one of the rigid rules of the Way of Divine Revelation.

Recognizing the nature of this change, Dagon began to think about the relationship between faith and divine force. He believes that his thinking has not changed, and definitely not that big change from belief in Oli to disbelief, but his diving technique spellcasting ability is not directly related to belief. There is no direct relationship... The impact of these words on Dagon is no less than the first time I heard from Reid that "Gods are waste".

“Where does my remaining dive technique come from?”

Dagon unfolds the full mana model to wrap himself around, looking for the source of the dive technique based on the subtle fluctuations of mana and energy. After continuous exploration, he found that the energy of the dive technique comes from all directions, or it can be said that there is no fixed source, and the incantation control of the dive technique comes from his soul domain, which is completely based on the original knowledge of the dive technique he learned from Oli.

"Am I casting the dive technique as an Arcane? I've become a mage of the dive technique?"

This conclusion is incredible, but it does not require understanding, only It's good to know it's a fact. Dagon changed the way he performed the dive technique, using the full mana model to convert natural elements to provide sacred energy, completely avoiding the spiritual realm channel, and directly using the soul realm to control the sacred energy, so the spell effect of his dive technique incantation was restored immediately. to normal levels. If others do not carefully explore the source of his spell, it is impossible to see how he circumvented the belief in the Ori and completed the dive technique incantation.

"Bless you all!" Dagon raised his left hand and cast a wide range of blessings on the people gathered in front of the Aura Temple to pray. The rays of light with dive aura instantly swept across the not spacious street, It can even penetrate the wooden walls of the house and shine on everyone. Everyone felt like a spring breeze and felt refreshed, and their bodies and spirits were comforted once. They got up and thanked Dagon and Oli, and then discussed with each other and admired Dagon's powerful diving technique, and hurriedly worked their way through the day.

"Dao Zun, your blessing and prayer skills are getting better and better." Phoenix leaned on a cane in one hand and held up his glasses in the other, and said to Dagon with his head down.

"Just call me by my name, or I'll have to react." Dagon extended the hand, supporting Phoenix and walking towards the interior of the temple with him. "I found that more and more people came to the temple in the morning, and I heard that many people took a seat here early in the morning and waited for a few hours. Is there such a thing?"

"Yes. Since you came, this small temple has finally become lively and popular. Although I used to bless ceremony every day, there are usually only a few people or more than a dozen people, and my ability to dive techniques that I can't do is enough. Now that there are a lot of people, the place is small, and you came to bless yourself, everyone will definitely hope to grab a good spot."

"But is it worth it to waste a few hours for a blessing ceremony? "Dagon escorted Phoenix back to the house and sat down, then moved himself a chair and sat beside him, and the two of them talked on their knees. "Actually, we all know that the blessing technique is only for mental comfort. It can relieve fatigue a little physically, and make the heart and muscles excited. In fact, it is not much different from a simple warm-up exercise."

"It's like drinking a cup of warm ginger tea slowly in cold weather." Phoenix made a very apt description, and at the same time nodded: "The effect of blessing ceremony is weaker, but it has a large range. , intuitive, and useful to everyone. Dagon, do you think it should be replaced with a more powerful blessing ceremony?"

"I think everyone should be busy with life, not wait here. Ceremony. Or the temple directly makes some hot porridge and ginger tea and distributes it to everyone. Everyone can come and take it away at any time. Maybe it can be done.” Dagon said: “Since the road of enlightenment, I feel that Jiangu clansman of Chiling City is more Enthusiastic about participating in the dive technique ceremony , you are less concerned about your daily life. Have you noticed this phenomenon?"

"The time per day is limited, and you can get close to the Taoist and the divine enlightenment. There aren't many opportunities for road trialists. You think they're wasting time because you're always with yourself and don't need an appointment. Dagon Taoist, I really don't blame them, they didn't make the wrong choice."

Dagon pondered for a moment, carefully considered his rhetoric, and then said: "Indeed, it can't be said that they are wrong, I just think that their choice is not good enough - not the best. Phoenix, you gave me an idea, yes Isn't it possible to keep everyone close to and love the temple, and at the same time reduce the time spent waiting for the ceremony?"

"It's not difficult: the daily ceremony should be held by ordinary priests, You can pick and reward the most devout and dedicated, and hold a ceremony alone for them and their families. The temple has always had this tradition and can receive a lot of donations from lords, merchants, and wealthy knights."

Dagon tugged at his beard, shook his head and said, "Next, the temple can start selling scrolls, potions, as well as various instruments and holy emblems, and earn money from them... Isn't this a mode of serving the great lord? ? In the future, the temple will serve the public more and cannot take the old road."

"But..." Phoenix coughed and said, "Dagon Dao Zun, let me tell you the truth, don't take it that way." Angry. Serve the people directly, what should the lord do? The shrine of Chiling City can’t go beyond the lord Toban to manage the residents of Chiling City, right? I heard that your relationship is very good, maybe there is an agreement on this?”

"The lord of Chiling City is Toban Dadasi, I Not robbing his place and his people. I mean: if the temple gets a place of its own, what can be done? "

"What if the temple had a place?" Then you can do what you say, do you need to think too much? "Phoenix said with a smile: "You just tell them: spread out, go to work, don't wait here. Can they not listen? "

"You...that's straightforward enough." "

"Thank you for saving me face, I should call this method rough." Phoenix stroked his beard proudly and said, "Dagon Dao Zun, I am not too young, but I have never forgotten my dream when I was young, that is, to be able to manage a big temple for Oli and arrange the affairs of the temple according to my ideas. , hold a variety of ceremony. Those lords, Great Knights, or merchants must be blessed by virtue. Don't try to buy me off with money. You now say that the temple is to serve the public, and I finally feel that this dream is possible. "

"It will come true. "Dagon patted him on the shoulder and said before leaving the temple.

The daily diving technique and blessing ceremony made Dagon gain a lot of love and respect in Chiling City. Love comes from ordinary people who feel that Dagon Approachable, not far from them. And respect comes from other priests in the Ori Temple. After all, one person can support the diving technique ceremony that prays for nearly a thousand people at the same time, and insist on it every day. It is not an easy task. Things. But Dagon does it neither out of love nor out of respect, he's just trying to figure out the relationship between the divide technique and divine energy to see if anyone can see that he doesn't get the divide technique from Ori anymore.

It has been more than a month, no one has been able to discover this secret, and no one has said, "Hey, why does this blessing technique feel different? "Not only that, Dagon uses his own mana to cast the blessing dive technique that can elicit the reaction of the sacred symbols of Ao Li, making them glow faintly, just like casting the dive technique from Ao Li. In order to verify this, he secretly let Dong Dong The professor wears the holy emblem of Ais Ain, uses the Illusion Technique to cover himself and mixes in the crowd to participate in the blessing ceremony together.

Leaving the temple, Dagon goes straight to the "North Spell School", which is Winter The new spell school opened by Professor Dong. At present there are only two teachers here - both heavyweights - Dong Dong and Shi Luo Ai. There are eight students, six of whom were originally spell students of the elite Academy. I heard that Dong Professor Dong chased after him in Chiling City. You can become a student of a famous professor without taking an exam. This opportunity is absolutely precious.

Every four days of class, he will work for three days. His students went to the temple to help copy books. Today was "working day", the students were all at the temple, and there was only Dagon and the professor in the school, plus the invisible servant he brought over. Dagon finally returned the invisible servant Professor, because the servant still gets scared when he sees him, he will spill any water he brings, and then he will be even more frightened, which means he can't work at all.

Let's stay with the professor and take care of him.

Teacher and students use the Illusion Technique to cover their tracks, sneaking to meet in the classroom. The invisible servant brings them light wine to quench their thirst, and the twitching motion almost breaks the jug. Dagon Take the jug with the word "Yong", fill the professor's glass with your own hands, and then wave the invisible servant out.

"Ais Ain's holy emblem lit up, as if receiving Aisi · Ain's diving technique is the same as blessing. "Professor Dongdong untied the chain wrapped around the holy emblem on his wrist and handed it to Dagon. "I used incantation to block it, so there should be some blessing energy left on it, you can feel it yourself. ”

There is an incantation in the divine technique called “Exploring the Spiritual Realm”, which is generally used to find areas rich in divine energy and locate those treasures suitable for building temples. If it is used in subtleties, this incantation can also The attribute of divine energy can be judged. However, there is very little demand for this, and very few people use the holy emblem that has generated divine energy induction.

Dagon casts spells on Ais Ain's holy emblem, carefully Feeling the information from the incantation, his brows furrowed. "It must not be a good thing..." Upon seeing this, Professor Dongdong sighed first, then picked up the wine cup and took a sip, as if to calm down in this way." When your prayers can arouse the holy symbol of Ais Ain, I... No, when you asked me to do this, I had an ominous premonition. Come on, I can accept anything bad, even if you say Ais Ain doesn't exist. "

"Ais Iron doesn't exist?" Nothing! The Way of Revelation is what it created, and I believe it must exist. Dagon said: "Professor, you misunderstood, this experiment is not for Ais Ain, but for all gods." I've probably figured out how to use the full mana model to simulate divine energy properties, just like I can do featureless spell signatures. Mainly, if this matter is made public, it will definitely cause an uproar, and I can only find the people I trust the most. Shiroai's beliefs are not very firm, and among the remaining non-Australian believers, I can only find you. "

"Wait, what do you mean, the same thing happens if there's a Psorda devotee wearing Psorda's holy emblem?" "Professor Dongdong hurriedly put down his wine glass and said excitedly, "So you are actually making a fool of yourself?" Isn't there something wrong with Spiritual God or faith? "

"I'm not calling a ghost..." Dagon didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and said, "I didn't start the battle of gods, how could something happen to Spiritual God?" As for your beliefs, I'm not Shiroai either, and I won't mess with your mind with incantation. This is actually still part of the full mana model research, don't worry. "

"No, when you say you don't have to worry, you often need to worry." "Professor Dongdong raised his index finger and made two circles in the air, a hemispherical array wrapped the two people. "You have a lot of things now, and you won't simply conduct a full mana model test, which must have profound meaning. If you think I'm okay, then tell me. Even if I can't help, I won't say a word. "

"A shrine that can accommodate any Spiritual God divine technique." "Dagon said.

"Pantheon? The priests of Pusoda have tried it before, and you know they are always collecting tomes of various diving techniques, spells, and constantly delving into the teachings of other Spiritual Gods. I remember there was a time when the priest of Pusoda claimed to be able to simulate any Spiritual God's diving technique, which caused a huge stir, but then there was no following. I vaguely remember that it seems that the Mages Association found out that they faked the diving technique incantation, which actually did not match the effect they claimed. "

"Oh, someone tried it! "Dagon scratched the whiskers on his cheeks and said, "In that case, let me collect some information about the experiment at the Temple of Psoda at that time. "

"That's it? "Professor Dongdong shook his head and said, "If I have a deep understanding of you, then you child will not only look at the immediate step, but make a long-term plan long before taking action." Just like when you wrote the first book of Algebra, you were already thinking about the Equality Act and its follow-up work, right? "

"It's really not that simple, and part of that involves making the dive technique easier and more accessible." Dagon admitted frankly, but had some reservations. "I have some ideas that may subvert the relationship between priests and believers in the diving technique, but those ideas can't be implemented in Chiling City. It's better to find a new land, A place without the power of the old temple. "

Professor Dongdong nodded, said: "I think it's time to leave Chiling City and become a lord. If you don't go, Lord Toban Dadas will be embarrassed. ”

"en. I don't actually influence his rule, but he is embarrassing, and I know that. Dagon patted his thigh and said, "I won't invite you to the battlefield this time. The opponents are not strong enough, and there is no need to teach them to cook. "

"Okay, got it!" You and Shiloh are young, it's your youngster's time! "Professor Dongdong said: "You may not know that there are rumors of war in Chiling City, especially after hearing that the church recruited the Guardian Army and handed those new recruits to the Wind Chaser Team for training, everyone said that you were here." Build your own armour and prepare to go big. "

"Well, I can't hide things like recruiting and training, and I don't want to hide it. Everyone can guess it's normal." "Dagon said: "I have this idea to go out from Chiling City to develop. Professor, do you have any suggestions? "

"My suggestion? I believe that you have already chosen your goals, and it is simply not something that can be changed by my current advice. But I have to remind you, don't attack the elves, there is no benefit at all. "

"Elf? Wouldn't it be courting death if I hit them now? I have played against the war tree, and that thing is really difficult to deal with on the battlefield. I don't want to send a group of young people full of future to death. Dagon shook his head and said, "But you're not entirely right. If you really fight the elves, it's not without benefits, at least they have more money." haha, don't stare at me, I'm joking! "

"If you fight for money, you become a bandit." "Professor Dongdong said: "I guess your goal will be the Barbarian Race in the North, but I don't know if you will go west or east. I'm not very familiar with the geography of Northland, but I think it's better to the east, closer to the Eastern Sea, and the way out is wider. But there are also advantages to the west, the land has more space..."

"Don't guess, I can't say it now. Dagon said: "I don't know how to teleport. The news of sending troops can't be concealed from anyone. When the time comes, you will definitely know." "

"Ai, yes... it would be great if there was a teleportation technique, or a meteorite teleportation technique that could prevent monsters!" Recently, the elves will be sent a sneak attack by a meteorite. Although there are living trees all over the place for defense, there will still be losses. Dagon, why don't the Alliance of Five Races use their teleportation technique? "

"I don't know, and I have no way to ask." In my particular situation, it is not appropriate to write to the Spirit King or the Choice King. Now I can only hope that they have a better view of the overall situation and can clearly know who is the main enemy. ”

The biggest threat to the surface race is of course monsters. Now there is news that monsters have begun to capture intelligent creatures on the surface to mutate and prepare to breed the next generation of new monsters. This behavior has threatened The existence of the race belongs to the most serious level, and it should be dealt with first.

However, Professor Dongdong heard what Dagon meant, he glared and asked, "Did you encounter a threat recently? Is it the Society of Wizards or the Spirit King? "

"I can't hide anything from you, I'll have to wear a mask in the future." "Dagon said: "I don't know who it is at the moment, anyone is possible, including monsters, opposition in the Temple of Ori, or simply mercenaries who want to be famous." Saree's hand was too heavy to leave alive, and two axes split the guy into three sections. Everyone is dead, I can't use the necromancer spell to pull out his soul and interrogate him? "

"Are you a necromancer spell?" "Professor Dongdong stared at Dagon, then said, "Don't tell me the answer, I don't want to know!" It's not a good thing to know..."

"I learned it on the road of enlightenment. I used to live in a state of giant bones for a period of time, and I had to constantly restructure my body. I don't think I can learn it. no. Dagon said: "But that's not necromancy in the field of mage, but in the category of diving technique, so the Mage Association can't use this to condemn me. In fact, I also hoped they would scold me for a bit, so I could deal with them. Now they deliberately ignore my presence and write to them with no response. "

"I really don't know what they're doing...oh!" Professor Dongdong finally said: "I really have to leave Myris, so that I can see how much time and money is wasted over there." life. Speaking of this, I know you have a lot of things to do, so I won't leave you. I will keep the test of the full mana model a secret, but unfortunately I haven't fully learned the "algebra" course, so I can't help you with the full mana model. When I figure it out, I'll be your research assistant. "

"Professor, you are too kind. "

Dagon left the school gate, and Saree followed from the school gate, red's hair and the double axe on his back stood out. Dagon never concealed from her where he was going, and would tell her. Will I have a disguise, such as invisibility, etc. This can prevent Saree from finding him and become anxious, and it is also a symbol of trust.

When you see Saree, you see the star helmet, The bear lizard crawled out of red's hair, snapped its tongue to Dagon's face, and jumped back in. Since the Starhelm can pinpoint Dagon's position, Saree would put the Starhelm first whenever possible out of sight. Come here. If something goes wrong, Star Helmet can sense Dagon's nervousness and guide the way, and Saree will go to the rescue as quickly as possible.

The bear lizard uses its claws on Dagon's face He stepped on it, saying "you're fine", and then expertly drilled under Dagon's beard. It still prefers Dagon's beard, but it can also adapt to the state of living with other people. When the road of enlightenment, the star Helmet is taken care of by Shiroai, and it has become a barometer of whether Dagon is still alive. Now, it has become a "Dagon locator" and still has a very important role.

"Nothing else today , go see what's going on with the Vanguard Team. Dagon, walking side by side with Surrey, asked, "How's your training going?" "

"Those young men are all good, and they train very hard." It is a rare opportunity for them to have the weapon master train themselves, so why not work hard! "

"What about the elimination situation? "Dagon said: "Three hundred people can only stay at most two hundred and forty, do you think they can do it?" "

"I think it's fine for three hundred people to stay, they will definitely be able to do the job." Mainly..." Surrey hesitated for a moment, then said: "Actually, I think the battle skill of a musket is too simple, it's just a little bit of tossing and turning, which is easier than using a lance. If you really want to look at the standard, three hundred people can pass, why only two hundred and forty? "

"The sixty people who came down were reserved as backup, and followed the action together, but they were only responsible for the logistics first. I want more too, but muskets aren't cheap, and war isn't cheap either. "We've had to support ourselves since the vanguard," Dagon said. Although the nursery school will provide support, Chiling City is not well-off, so we still have to live within our means. Aside from the wealth collected from contribution points, citizen points, and the sale of the previous superfluous wealth, our actual continuous income is only the Griffin farm in Shiroai, which is not a long-term solution. "

"Um... yeah." Mainly we have the canine fortress to the south, and we can't cross it to attack the human lord. In fact, the human lord is quite rich, much fatter than the Barbarian Race in the north. In particular, the farmland there is readily available, and the climate is warmer and more suitable for cultivation, which is more suitable for development than the northern land. "

"Why, I still don't like that place in Egg Island? "

"I think it's a barbarian den, it's a bit too shabby." "Sari beckons with the hand to the guards of the dark sentry, and then takes Dagon into the training ground of the vanguard. Here, Dagon's safety is more guaranteed. "The only good place over there is the underground cave, which is more in line with Jiangu clansman's. living habits. But I'm also worried that these northern Jiangu clansman have long lived in underground caves, will they be uncomfortable? "

"Is there any Jiangu clansman in Chiling City who doesn't adapt to the caveman? "

"Oh, I didn't hear that." "

"The ability that runs in Jiangu clansman's blood won't go away easily." Listen, the screams on the training ground... how powerful and exciting! It feels so good! ”
