I am a god in another world

Chapter 463 Anfield Village

"This..." Aurilla looked embarrassed. This question exceeded the upper limit of their knowledge.

In other words, they don't dare to ask such questions directly in front of their teachers. Isn't this blasphemy to the goddess of magic?

Although not all spellcasters are believers in the goddess of magic, it is basic to maintain reverence for her.

Gavin didn't have so many scruples about this matter, and went on to explain: "In fact, you can completely regard the crazy magic area as the magic network collapse area, and the control of the goddess of magic here has been greatly weakened.

Many scholars believe that the frantic magic area is the most primitive form of magic. Before there was no magic network, magic existed in this form. At that time, the difficulty of casting spells was not generally high. According to the current professional level, it was extraordinary. It is very dangerous for the following spellcasters to cast spells in the frantic magic area. They are likely to kill themselves before killing the enemy. Even if they reach the legendary level, there is no way to completely overcome the influence of this chaos.

Therefore, the creation of the Magic Network is a thing that benefits all of Toril. It lowers the lower limit of spell casting in the entire world and enhances the success rate and safety of spell casting. Without the Magic Network, many people will Lost the ability to cast spells. "

Gavin's view can be said to be advanced.

Because this argument was completely formed after the Arcane Tribulation broke out and the Magic Network completely collapsed.

At that time, the entire world was shrouded in crazy magic areas, and even anti-magic areas appeared, that is, magic-free areas with no magical effects.

However, the magic-free area is a paradox in a multiverse composed of magic, because only when there is magic, the magic-free area can be rigidly defined. This itself is a magic effect, that is, the magic-free area is the largest. Magic area.

Hundreds of thousands of spellcasters went crazy after the magic network collapsed. Those low-level spellcasters did not dare to use magic easily and began to look for ways to cast wild spells.

In fact, Gavin has a being related to wild magic, the young priest Anna. In her previous life, she once thought that she was influenced by the power of wild magic and embarked on the path of pursuing wild magic. She worked part-time as a crazy mage and tried to Taming the power of chaos and finding the source of the side effects of his spells, he ended up going further and further down the wrong path.

At that time, not only those spellcasters missed the magic network that they had criticized, but even the secular residents also missed the magic network highly.

Because it is not just a medium for casting spells, it also acts as a regulator of world stability and a barrier on the Toril plane. When the protective layer of the magic network is lost, the entire world becomes extremely unstable. It was directly exposed to the entire multiverse, and many beings who were originally unable to gaze upon it were able to gaze upon it and lock onto it.

To put it bluntly, the Arcane Tribulation was the beginning of Toril's troubled modern history.

Not only did the Half-Moon Horse nod his head after hearing this, but even the girl Pegasus knights did the same. Olila couldn't help but admired: "Mr. Gavin's explanation is really easy to understand. In fact, it has popularized it for us." Knowledge."

"You haven't said how the crazy magic area was formed?" Ban Yueju broke the casserole and asked.

"There are many reasons for the formation of a crazy magic area, the most common of which is violent energy collisions, such as meteorites hitting the ground, or the confrontation of legendary spells, which may tear the magic network in the middle of the explosion to pieces, thus forming a crazy magic area." Gavin taught him everything without reservation, "This area produced the largest number of them last year. Do you know the reason?"

There was no fool present, and Luna replied without thinking: "When the gods come and where they conflict, there may be violent energy collisions, especially the latter."

"That's right." Gavin nodded and said, "The gods themselves are the incarnation of the sacred laws. Their overly condensed nature of laws will disrupt the balance of magic itself. The places that are assimilated by their sacred laws have become their holy places. Wherever a divine war breaks out, disaster will occur, and most likely it will become a wild magic area.

The goddess of magic naturally does not want such areas to appear, but there are too many such areas. Due to the rules, she cannot come to repair these areas with her sacred body like the previous two generations of magic goddesses. She can only rely on secular believers. . "

His words were quite explicit, but he didn't even say directly that Midnight, who had just been promoted to the third generation of magic goddess, had not completely controlled the magic network, at least she was still far behind the previous two generations of magic goddesses.

In fact, Gavin had long thought of glorifying the Goddess of Magic, and the way to obtain her divine grace was to repair the crazy magic area.

It's not as simple as repairing one or two crazy magic areas, but finding a way to quickly and effectively repair a large area of ​​crazy magic areas.

He already has a direction for this matter, but it requires a lot of manpower and material resources to support it. Even though he is now sitting in three places, he still feels that he is unable to do it, so he has not advanced the matter for the time being.

"For this topic, let's go here first today. Amphile Village will be arriving soon. Let's go down. Although there is no restricted air zone there, if you fly around casually, you will be refused hospitality." Ollila said. A haha, wisely ended the topic, they don't have the guts of Gavin to talk about the gods casually.

In their eyes, the gods are omnipotent, and when they talk about topics related to the gods, the gods can listen.

Gavin certainly couldn't tell them that the gods were not omnipotent. They couldn't just call their names a few times and they would listen. Most of the time, they couldn't even hear the prayers of their own believers unless they were devout enough.

But there was one thing they could sense 100%, that is, when large-scale sacrifices and prayers or things related to their duties were done, even if they were powerful, there would be at least 500 people.

For example, the god of war Tempus could sense all war conflicts with more than 500 people in Faerun, and fights with less than 500 people. Unless he had an incarnation present or devout believers prayed, he couldn't sense it.

Even if they sensed it, they couldn't respond to everything. Even the number of incarnations of the gods was limited, and their time was limited.

There was a secret that was not a secret, that is, many gods had believers not only in Toril, but also in other material planes of the multiverse, and even in the multiverse itself. Those major events had already made them overwhelmed and unable to split their attention. How could they care whether the farts below would say their names?

Single-plane gods, dual-plane gods, and even multi-plane gods, this involves the division of power among the gods, which is far beyond the scope of mundane knowledge. Even Gavin knows very little.

"Anfel Village is 150 kilometers away from Waterdeep. Its name originated from Anfel the Just, one of the early war lords of Waterdeep. He once built his castle here. Unfortunately, the castle was destroyed by the trolls that ravaged this place several centuries ago, leaving only a foundation.

But when Anfel Village is attacked by monsters, Lord Anfel the Just will still uphold his oath of protection and appear in a ghost body to repel the trolls and hostile barbarians.

However, this situation rarely occurs now, because we are now guarding Lord Bliss Arogar Swear allegiance to the Lord of Waterdeep, Pirgalen. The City of Glory provides military assistance to the city. Patrols from Waterdeep often come to clean up the surrounding area. It is not absolutely safe here, but it is safer than other villages.

As you can see, this is the largest horse farm in the surrounding area. Our war horses are very famous. Not only do we have a steady stream of orders from the City of Glory, but we also have war horses that serve in the army or travel on the surrounding trade routes from the north to Neverwinter and the south to Calimshan. "

Although their previous horse racing bet was ruined by the accidental disruption of the Swift Peng.

But Gavin and Half Moon have shown their overwhelming strength. The six ladies of the Roinhern family are also straightforward people. They admit defeat directly and willingly serve as Gavin's companion guides.

This is obviously not the first time they have done this. They can talk about the situation in Anfield Village.

After introducing the situation of Anfel Village, Aurilla asked indirectly: "Mr. Gavin, are you just passing by here? Or are you heading for Anfel Village?"

Anfel Village is located next to the most important inland trade road from Waterdeep City to the North. Many people are just passers-by here, but compared with the passengers with luggage in large and small carts, Gavin, who is alone on a horse, does not look like he is traveling far.

"My destination this time is Anfel." Gavin took the initiative to reveal his purpose, "I am here to purchase war horses, in bulk."

This is not a simple cover, but a side mission.

Both the Valley and Tesser need a large number of war horses and pack horses, especially the latter. The migration of tens of thousands of people can't be left to the Dalaoma citizens to carry on their feet and shoulders, right?

It's not that Tesser doesn't have horse breeding land, but it's all in the hands of those warlords and nobles. They are now waging a war without gunpowder against Dalaoma-an economic blockade.

Even ordinary goods are not traded to them, let alone military supplies such as war horses.

There is no large horse-breeding land around the valley. Even the Kingdom of Cormier, which has the Purple Dragon Knight as one of its pillars, does not raise 80% of its war horses, but imports them from the North.

"Bulk purchase of war horses?" Aurora's eyes lit up when she heard this. Could it be that they picked up a treasure? She suppressed her joy and asked carefully, "How big is the amount?"

Gavin did not answer directly, but directly extended a finger.

"One hundred horses?" Aurora's eyes brightened. This is not a small deal. A light war horse costs at least 250 gold coins, and a heavy war horse starts at 400 gold coins. Even if they are all light war horses, it will cost 25,000 gold coins.

Gavin shook his head and said, "Multiply this number by 100."

"How much?" Aurora almost fell off the flying war horse, and couldn't help wondering if she had heard it wrong.

"Ten thousand horses, I need at least ten thousand horses of various types." Gavin repeated the number he was going to purchase.

"Mr. Gavin, this joke is not funny." Aurora looked back at Gavin and said seriously.

"Do you think I'm joking?" Gavin's expression was as serious as it could be.

"Mr. Gavin, I'm not questioning your ability. Ten thousand horses, even light pack horses, cost nearly a million gold coins. It's hard to believe that you came empty-handed." Aurora's implication was obvious. Anyone can boast, but the question is whether you have the financial resources.

"I just came here to fight for the front line, and I didn't say I would take it all in one bite. After all, I can give out millions of gold coins at once, and your Amphier Village can't give out so many war horses, right?" Gavin smiled. He said, "And trust, this kind of thing, needs to be established bit by bit. I'm afraid I have to live in Amphail Village for a while. The first priority now is not to discuss business, but to treat six ladies to a drink." , please take me to the Antler Pot Tavern!”

Gavin took the opportunity to make a statement. Ten thousand horses was just an imaginary number. How many horses he would take depends on the specific situation.

It depends on the situation of the horse breeders in Anfield Village and the development of the situation on your own side. This is not yet completely certain.

Regardless of whether what you say is true or false, someone will take the initiative to contact you and at the same time pave the way for your next plan.

As soon as you enter the village of Anfeil, a strong smell of life hits your face - the smell of horse manure, bread, wine, cooking smoke, and stewed meat are all mixed together.

Recently, Gavin has been dealing with a series of natural races such as treants and fey every day, and he has almost forgotten this taste.

This simple village suddenly brought him back to the ordinary world, back to the human world.

In fact, there is no need for an escort in Amphail Village, because this settlement is very small. The town is centered on an open space, where several side roads intersect with the long road. This open space is called Marande Junction by the locals. The name comes from the butcher shop run by the Marland family which was destroyed in a fire ten years ago.

Standing in the center of the Marande intersection and walking around, the entire village of Amphiel comes into view.

The Antler Pot Tavern that Olila mentioned is located directly south of the Malander intersection. Its entrance faces the long road, silently tempting travelers passing by the long road to rest here and have a drink.

Before entering the Antler Pot Tavern, Gavin's eyes couldn't help but fall on a huge obsidian statue to the north. It was a war horse standing on one leg. The craftsmanship of the statue maker was very good, making it appear alive, as if the next second , he was able to come back to life with a long neigh and run again. The only thing not beautiful is that the majestic symbol of this war horse was castrated.

Seeing Gavin's gaze, Olila immediately explained on the side: "This war horse statue is called Great Shalan. It is to commemorate the famous war horse bred by Amphier Village half a century ago and is the symbol of this village. ”

"Symbol? Your way of treating symbols is really unique?" Gavin couldn't help laughing. Not only was this obsidian stone horse painted with various colors, but there were also a group of children holding slingshots and slings, and they were taking the stone horse. The perching birds serve as live targets for target practice.

Olila blushed slightly and defended: "This is to prevent more birds from falling on the stone horse. People often clean it. It's just some villagers who think that painting it with unique colors is a way to pray for blessings." , the war horse cub can be born safely, so it will become like this again soon."

"This custom is quite unique." Gavin smiled kindly and said nothing more.

In fact, Olila misunderstood. What he was looking at just now was not the stone statue, but opposite the stone statue he was looking at. Behind the Happy Hall of Mother Gauther, there was a dilapidated, dark building. At first glance, You know it was burned by fire.

It is another destination of Gavin's trip.

Seeing that it was still dilapidated, Gavin's heart suddenly fell to the ground. He hadn't arrived late, and the place hadn't been sold yet, otherwise he would have had to spend a lot more effort.

"Beautiful ladies, have you completed your inspection mission so early today? Is this the old rule?" A waitress who looked about the same age as Olila and the others greeted them enthusiastically. It was obvious at a glance that she was A well-connected acquaintance.

His skills can be said to be exquisite in all directions. While greeting regular customers, he did not ignore the new face of Gavin. He smiled and said, "This handsome gentleman must be the lucky one today to be able to drink with the six beautiful flowers of our Amphier Village." A cup is something that countless young people in the Glory City only dream about.”

"Old rules." Olila joked with a smile, "Ella, it's too inconvenient for you to stay in Xuanlu. You should go to Gao Se's Mother's Happy Hall across the street. You have such a small mouth and you just wipe it out every day. It’s like Mother Gowther’s mead, and those guests even saved money on buying the mead.”

"I think so." The waitress Ella said with an aggrieved look, "Ever since the last time I used a throwing knife to pierce the hat of an aristocratic drunkard who tried to touch my thigh, Gowther's mother has forbidden me from approaching their front door. Mi, no matter how busy they are and how short of manpower they are, they are not willing to ask us sisters for help. "

"Haha..." All the girls couldn't help but laugh at the same time. The one named Pasala said while laughing, "If it were me, I wouldn't dare to ask you to help. If a guest spills mead on you next time, What if you just nail the flying knife to their face?"

"Hey! If we don't let this happen, we can only tie our sisters' hands, but then we won't be able to work." Ella sighed pretending to be sad, and turned to Gai again. Wen showed a sweet smile and said, "Sir, leave the war horses to us. We Xuanlu have the most spacious stables in Amphail Village and the best horse feed. When you leave..."
