Invincible Heroes - Hidden Architect

Erathia, Longgue Port City, Luo Xiang drove a carriage and hummed a tune while driving on the wide road.

Luo Xiang was driving a year ago, and Luo Xiang is still driving a year later.

But his current car is very different from before.

This is the special carriage of the Holy Gryphon Church [Saint Adela]!

This is a big treasure. Now Luo Xiang is traveling in an empty carriage, accompanied by six fully armed church knights.

If [Saint Adela] was sitting on a carriage, that would be even more extraordinary. At least a complete formation of 18 church knights would be accompanying them, and nearly a hundred holy swordsmen would be guarding the surroundings.

This is not because Adela wants to show off, but because her status is too high.

In Erathia now, divine power and imperial power share the world, and angels and griffins fly together.

Adela, who represents the Holy Gryphon Church, is half of Erathia. It can be called the pope, pope, and saint in one, and its status is no less than that of Her Majesty Catherine.

Especially Longgue Port City, which is Adela's hometown, and all residents are proud to be fellow townsmen with the Saint.

If there are not enough guards to clear the way, when she parades, the people who worship her and want to worship her will be able to crowd around the carriage.

This carriage is exclusive to the Saint, and it belongs to him, Luo Xiang. No one else can even touch it, let alone drive it.

"Smoked fish, very good smoked fish! It's smoked with the agave we just caught yesterday, it's fresh!"

"Try it and take a look. The grilled squid made by the halfling chef is only available here. There are no other branches. Don't miss it!"

"We are selling flower cakes! Get the freshly baked blue flower cakes. It's not fragrant or sweet, and it doesn't cost any money."

Da da da……

The crisp sound of horse hooves sounded slowly on the white stone road, and the sound of rolling wheels complemented the sound of hawking along the street.

The sweet smell of the flower cake crept into Luo Xiang's nostrils.

He sniffed and felt hungry.

Soon, the carriage left Longgue Port City under Luo Xiang's skillful control.

They have to patrol the auxiliary cities and villages around Longguigang City, and then come back, once a week, and they are unstoppable.

If there is any incident of bullies oppressing good people in the affiliated city, and someone stops the convoy to complain to them, they can execute justice on the spot and strike hard.

…

…

Just as Luo Xiang and the knights were leaving one village and preparing to rush to another village, a church knight next to him suddenly shouted:

"Careful, get out of the way!"

The church knight dismounted and quickly grabbed the emergency reins of Luo Xiang's carriage.

"Hey!!"*6

He pulled hard, and six tall white horses rose up at the same time and stopped the carriage urgently.

"what happened?"

Luo Xiang, who was sitting on the carriage, was startled. He saw that the horse seemed a little frightened, and he quickly pulled the reins a few times.

The frightened horse recovered instantly and became lazy and miraculous.

Luo Xiang looked over and saw that in the blind spot of his view blocked by the war horse, there was a little boy holding an apple basket sitting on the ground in fear, and the apples in the basket were scattered all over the floor.

The knight holding the reins became serious and shouted:

"How are you walking! This is Whitestone Drive! Didn't your adults teach you not to run across Whitestone Drive?

You piled apples so high that your eyes were blocked. Who taught you to hold things like this? ! "

The little boy's eyes were filled with mist, and he became even more panicked: "Yes, I'm sorry, I, I..."

"Archimende!" At this moment, a young man dressed as a fisherman ran over in a panic. Where he ran over, a fruit basket that was also filled to the brim was thrown to the ground.

"Brother!" The little boy seemed to have found his backbone, and tears came down in a flash, crying hard.

Colliding into the church's carriage, this would have resulted in death in the previous Holy Heaven Church.

The little boy didn't know this; he was simply frightened by the horse.

But the young man knew the consequences very well, so he was actually more frightened than the little boy.

The young fisherman turned pale with fright, but he still protected the little boy with his body and anxiously explained to the knight:

"Lord Knight, we definitely didn't mean it. We were just too anxious to get the apples to sell in Longgue Port City, so we didn't pay attention.

No matter how much loss we cause, we will compensate you.

Holy and gryphon above, please believe that our family are all devout believers of the church, and we are definitely not deliberately testing spies of the church. "

"You know quite a lot?" The church knight was still angry: "Then you still don't know how to teach your brother well! Do you know what will happen if your brother is trampled by a war horse!"

"Okay! Don't scare them, they already know their mistake."

At this moment, Luo Xiang shouted loudly.

He calmed the horse, jumped down from the carriage, and patted the armor on the thigh of the church knight.

The church knight took a heavy breath, put on his helmet, and rode his horse back to the team.

Luo Xiang walked to the boy's side. The boy's eyes were full of regret for the past and panic about the future.

His figure is not thin, but he is not too fat. His face is quite clear, but a little yellow. His clothes are very clean, but they look a little white due to long-term cleaning.

In Luo Xiang's heart, the young man who was protecting his younger brother gradually overlapped with his former self.

This moment is just like that moment.

"Lord Qi Ge changed my destiny. I am not as powerful as Lord Qi Ge, but I should also remain kind to those who are weaker than me."

Luo Xiang knelt down, touched the little boy's hair with his gentle but rough hands, and asked softly:

"You're not hurt, are you?"

"No, no." The little boy leaned tightly in his brother's arms, with a muddy cry in his voice.

Luo Xiang smiled slightly and said:

“It’s good that it’s not hurt.

"Yeah. These apples are of good quality."

Luo Xiang picked up an apple from the ground, wiped it, and took a big bite.

"Don't go to the city. Sell them all to me."

The little boy was at a loss, but his brother suddenly became smart:

"Sir, we ran into your carriage. If possible, these apples can be regarded as our apology to you.

If it's not enough, I have some more over there. If it's not enough, I'll add more. "

"Okay, okay!" Luo Xiang patted the young man's head and said with a smile:

"No need to do this, just buying something. You don't have to be afraid."

Luo Xiang recalled the appearance of Qi Ge and said to the young man:

"The price of these apples in Longgue Port City is about 6 silver coins each.

Some of these on the ground were broken and worthless.

Although these apples are a little bruised, I happen to like eating apples, so they cost 7 silver coins each.

I also bought an apple basket to save me the trouble of finding things to put it in.

The apples have just been picked from the tree. They are very fresh. I will add a little more price. The total is 8 silver coins each.

I did a visual inspection and found that your two baskets and the one I have in my hand total 128 pieces.

The total is 10 gold and 24 silver. I don’t like change, so I’ll give you 11 gold coins. Didn't I get it cheaper for you? how do you feel? "

"Sir!" The young man was so excited that his lips were trembling and he was speechless.

"Haha, it seems you agree. That's okay, help me pick up my apples."

Luo Xiang took out 11 gold coins and counted them one by one to the young man's hand to confirm that they were correct.

The young man and the little boy hurriedly picked up the apples and solemnly moved them to the driver's seat of Luo Xiang's carriage.

Luo Xiang smiled and gave each of the knights an apple, and the knights accepted it with dignity.

They looked at Luo Xiang with respect and appreciation in their eyes.

Until the motorcade left, the young man and the little boy still stood on the roadside and kept waving.

Luo Xiang did not look back, he raised his riding whip and shouted loudly:

"Don't you still want to go to the city to buy something? Go quickly. Go early and come back early. Don't let your parents worry!"

"Yes! Sir! Sir! My name is Archimenon! Sir, I will definitely find a way to repay you in the future!"

"Hahaha! Okay, then I'll wait."

Luo Xiang looked up to the sky and laughed. In his mind, he couldn't help but recall the day that changed his destiny.

"That day, my carriage surprised the saint's procession. The damn pagan bishop not only ordered my carriage to be destroyed, but he also wanted to kill me.

Fortunately, the Holy Lady was magnanimous and I managed to escape with my life.

As a blessing in disguise, I also met Mr. Qi Ge, the president of the [Timely Rain Merchant Association] because of this incident.

I will never forget his noble and elegant smile and the gold coins that gradually increased little by little in front of me.

It was he who saved the lives of my whole family.

And when I followed Master Qi Ge in the City of God’s Choice, that was the second happiest time in my life, and the happiest time is now. "

Luo Xiang stroked the red flower on his chest.

Blue flowers and red flowers can be seen everywhere in Erathia, but in Longgue Port City, they have a special meaning.

Becoming a father for the first time.

This was his fourth child and he didn't have to wear one.

But for some reason, he likes to pick flowers of corresponding colors and wear them on his chest when his children are born.

Perhaps the scene where Qige bent down to help him pick up the blue flowers impressed him too much, or maybe he secretly felt that these flowers could bring him good luck.

After Qige recommended Luo Xiang to Adela, Adela took great care of him and gave him a lot of training.

It can be said that he can choose from all the advancements below Miracle.

As long as he confirms it, he will be able to get rid of his identity as a logistics unit, gain powerful combat effectiveness, and maybe even become a hero in the future!

But after repeated struggles, Luo Xiang finally determined that he did not have that kind of ability and that kind of ambition.

He is a very ordinary, very common Erathian who likes his children and even prefers to take good care of his wife after the children fall asleep.

He used to want to join the combat service purely to support his family, but now he has a worry-free life. He is willing to drive, loves driving, and can only think about driving.

After going around in circles, Luo Xiang finally chose the coachman class and became Adela's exclusive coachman.

This time, it's been more than half a year.

Adela rarely rides in her exclusive car, and even spends little time in Longgue Port City.

Luo Xiang only needs to pull this empty carriage for one or two laps around Longbao Port City and Longbao Port City on the seventh day of every week, and he will have completed his task.

In the remaining days, if he wanted to work, he would go to the car dealer to pick up some jobs. If he didn't want to work, he would stay at home with his wife and children. He would enjoy fishing and live a happy, worry-free, happy and stable life.

Luo Xiang felt that there were not many people living more comfortably than him in the entire Longgue Port City, or even in the entire Elasia.

Therefore, he was very grateful to Adela. Of course, what he was most grateful for was Seven Pigeons.

"Lord Qige, I haven't been to Longgue Port City for a long time."

Bite into the sweet apple and feel the juice spreading in your mouth.

Luo Xiangqing couldn't help but touch the red flower on his chest and murmured to himself:

"I haven't seen Lord Qige for a long time. I really want to see him again."

"Heh. How much do you want it?"

Suddenly, a voice suddenly appeared in Luo Xiang's ear, which frightened Luo Xiang.

Even if he turned into ashes, he would still hear this voice correctly!

"Lord Qige! Where are you?"

Luo Xiang quickly looked around, searching everywhere.

"Don't look, I'm here."

Qi Ge opened the curtain of the carriage. He held Adela's hand and sat on the cushions of the carriage. Adela was still covering her mouth and snickering.

"Yeah!!" Luo Xiang was shocked. "Lord Qi Ge, Your Majesty the Holy Maiden, why did you get out of the carriage?"

"See Saint."

A group of church knights immediately gathered around and bowed to Adela to greet her.

They were all loyalists who had followed Adela to clean up Longgue Port City, and they were deeply trusted by Adela.

"Without any courtesy, angels and griffins are watching over you."

Adela said softly:

“Don’t move too much on the road, and don’t be too serious, so as not to attract everyone’s attention.”

"yes!"

The knights dispersed quickly and took up their positions. Their positions were exactly the same and they were well-trained.

Qi Ge smiled slightly and explained to Luo Xiang:

"This carriage has a small teleportation circle, which is very precious. Otherwise, why do you think it was entrusted to you?

Luo Xiang, after normal patrol, take a detour and take us to the cathedral.

Remember, pretend we are not here. After entering Longgue Port City, drive slowly and don’t make any noise. "

After Qi Ge finished speaking, he picked up two apples.

"I'll take these two and try them. Luo Xiang, you did a good job."

"Yes! Lord Qige!"

Being praised by Qige made Luo Xiang extremely happy.

He squeezed the reins excitedly, firmly controlled the speed of the carriage, and was already prepared in his heart.

The lord said that when you arrive in the city, drive slowly, rather than drive slowly, then you must drive as slowly as possible!

When I arrive at Longgue Port City, I must make sure that the horse in the carriage seems to be moving, one step at a time, steady and slow.

If I pass any walking child, it’s because I, Luo Xiang, can’t drive.

In the carriage, Qi Ge wiped the apples clean and handed one to Adela.

The two of them synchronized and took a bite at the same time. It was indeed quite sweet.

…

…

Luo Xiang's carriage circled around the city of Longshei Port and finally returned to the city.

Adela waved her hand gently, and the walls around the carriage immediately became transparent, as if there were no walls. Qi Ge could clearly see all the scenes outside the carriage through the walls. Of course, the outside of the carriage could not see the inside.

Qige looked at the busy traffic outside the window and couldn't help but sigh:

"Magic is really convenient.

In our world, the earliest history of glass can be traced back to 3500 BC, with its origin in Mesopotamia, Asia.

The first one-way perspective glass was invented in 1903 AD, and the effect was not so good.

What took our world more than five thousand years to complete, you can solve with a single magic. "

"That's why I'm so good." Adela put her hand on Qi Ge's leg, caressing it slowly, and kept drawing circles on Qi Ge's inner thigh with her fingers.

She leaned close to Qi Ge's ear and breathed out:

"When you didn't come to see me, I often thought about what I would do if I met you.

Although we know that we can't see the inside from the outside, the visual effect is still very strong.

If we were to delve into our future while riding in this carriage parade, it would be like performing in front of a large audience.

Don't you think...it's exciting? "

Qi Ge held Adela's offending hand, squeezed it gently, and then knocked Adela's head.

He said angrily and funny:

"You're just going to play so big?

Excitement is excitement, but I am more traditional and can't stand it being too exciting all at once.

It is better for us to take it step by step and slowly metamorphose.

Ever since you awakened your Holy Dragon bloodline, you have become more and more bold, dear Holy Lady. "

"snort."

Adela snuggled up to Qi Ge and said dissatisfiedly:

"Long, that's what it looks like. You see, I miss you so hard. If you don't try harder, I'll be pitiful."

"Work hard, I will definitely work hard tonight."

Qi Ge smiled and agreed. Tears swallowed into the stomach.

"Now we have to observe the public's reaction. Business is more important."

"Speaking of your plan..."

Doubt appeared in Adela's eyes:

"Will anyone really respond to the conditions you give?"

Qi Ge’s eyes revealed a hint of anxiety: “I’m not sure either.

Dragon Tongue Port City is now the richest city in Erathia.

If even the residents of Longgue Port City actively participated in that announcement, then there must be no problem for the residents of other cities.

But if no one is willing to participate, it means that the conditions I gave are not attractive enough, and I can only continue to increase the amount.

If you want to continue to increase your investment, the price will be quite high and you need to consider it carefully. "

The white stone in Erathia is a necessary resource for building the Netherland Farm. White stone seems to be a companion resource of human beings. Wherever there are a large number of humans gathered, there will be white stone.

But white stones are not everywhere. They are transformed from ordinary stones and need to be dug out from the piles of stones on the roadside.

At present, a fixed mining area has never been found in white stone, and there is no suitable factory that can process white stone.

In the final analysis, why Baishi appeared is a question that is being intensively studied by the City of Gods.

It is still unknown whether the City of God’s Choice can study the problem of White Rock clearly, and it is impossible for the Hades Farm to wait until then to start construction.

The Iron Man army in the tower has been loaded into armed airships and is heading to the Arctic Ocean.

The intelligent undead of the cemetery march eastward in large numbers, preparing to join the Lord Dracolich's research feast.

Aveli was tired of all the waste, but still sent manpower to work with the cavemen in the underground city to dig water channels that ran through the entire Aveli and half of Diya.

If such a large-scale project, which has concentrated countless efforts, is stalled for even one minute because of the lack of one of the three, it will be a huge loss to the world of Yasha.

The seven pigeons must ensure that the four conditions for building the Netherland Farm can be gathered in Diya at the same time.

Then, it became an inevitable move to induce a large number of Erathians to collect white stones.

The easiest way to induce someone is to use gold coins.

But when using gold coins, you also need to be skillful.

Before Qige, the white stone was a completely worthless thing. Apart from being more beautiful and stronger, it had no other characteristics.

Most of the buildings in Erathia that use white stone are for aesthetic reasons.

What is the appropriate price for something like this?

You priced it low, and the people of Erathia have no incentive to collect white stones.

If your price is too high, that's even more serious.

In the real world, during the 18th and 19th centuries, after the discovery of the western gold mine in America, the country was excited and the world was shocked.

San Francisco, which was close at hand, first felt the impact of the gold rush. Almost all businesses stopped operating, sailors abandoned their ships in San Francisco Bay, soldiers left their barracks, and servants left their masters, flocking to the birthplace of the gold mines. .

Farmers mortgaged their fields and houses, pioneers plowed wasteland, workers threw down their tools, civil servants left their desks, and even missionaries left their mission houses.

The craze spread all the way to Oregon, north of San Francisco, and as far south as Mexico.

Thousands of gold prospectors swelled California's population. And many of the new towns quickly became cosmopolitan cities.

Because of the emergence of gold mines, a large number of jobs were abandoned, and many western cities became places of disorder.

Robberies, shootings and other incidents are common.

The scene of western cowboys fighting guns has been deeply recorded in the history of the real world.

Due to the rapid growth of population and the lack of normal workers, the basic necessities of life in the western city have become suddenly tense, and prices have skyrocketed.

Although a large number of enthusiastic people participate in gold mining, the number of people who can actually become rich from gold mining is very small.

White stone also differs from real-world gold.

The white stone itself has no value, and the value must be artificially determined. At the same time, Erathia's national reserves need to be spent to purchase the white stone from the people.

Even a small number multiplied by a huge population becomes an astronomical figure.

If the price of white stone is too high, Erathia will need to spend a huge amount of gold to purchase white stone from the public.

Erathia, who was originally impoverished and often caught in wars, finally managed to save a little wealth with the help of the Renaissance Blade, but could not withstand such troubles.

Catherine, Erathia's finance minister - [Demigod] [General Kendall], Erathia's professional financial team and national actuaries from reality all came together to take advantage of the super power in the real world. The quantum computer [Tianwen] calculated for three full days and nights before arriving at a final price that Erathia could afford.

Highest price: one gold coin for every 76.35 white stones, which is 7635 white stones for every 100 gold coins.

Lowest price: one gold coin for every 25.96 white stones, which is 2596 white stones for every 100 gold coins.

According to Tianwen’s calculations. Even if the maximum price is less than 0.01 white stone, Erathia will bear huge risks.

Even if the lowest price is 0.01 white stone, the vast majority of the people in Erathia will have no interest.

The final price set by Qi Ge was 30 white stones and one gold coin, which was quite low and could only earn a little more than [normal work] on Erathia's average income line.

However, there is an additional condition.

For every 3,000 white stones collected, you or one of your family members can be baptized by the Holy Gryphon Church.

To put it bluntly, baptism is for senior church personnel to use some very gorgeous light effect spells to bless it. It has almost no effect and is purely a psychological comfort.

The Holy Gryphon Church originally had no baptism.

Baptism is a dregs often used by the Holy Sky Church. It is a means for clergy to exploit wealthy families. It is a pure IQ tax.

A baptism requires a total of 100 to 1,000 gold coins depending on the level of the clergy. Commoners cannot afford baptism in their lifetime.

This bad habit left over from the previous church has been abolished by the Holy Griffin Church.

However, the Erathians believe this.

Now in Erathia, one can often hear wealthy residents or nobles complaining that the Holy Gryphon Church has deprived them of the opportunity to bask in divine grace.

All I can say is that it’s hard to persuade a damn dog with good words.

When the baptism started again, Qi Ge actually felt quite guilty, because no matter what, the essence of baptism was a kind of deception.

Qi Ge also knew that he had made a bad start. If there was no strict supervision in the future, it might lead to the resurgence of various bad habits in the Holy Sky Church.

But now it's urgent to follow the authority, and Qi Ge can't control that much.

At worst, after the Shiraishi incident is over, they will shirk the blessings from angels too many times and need to rest, and then abolish baptism.

But even with the addition of baptismal rules, Qi Ge felt a little uneasy.

The past was before and the present is now.

Qi Ge is not sure whether baptism is still attractive to ordinary people in Elathia.

After all, baptism has always been the privilege of a few powerful and noble people before, and the common people could only watch the show.

Times have changed, and Qi Ge was afraid that the [Baptism] he added would not only be unattractive, but would instead remind them of the [Holy Sky Church].

It caused the reputation of the Holy Griffin Church to be damaged and aroused the disgust of the people of Erathia. He cannot escape the blame, and he is even more sorry for everyone who is working hard for the [Holy Griffin Church].

As they neared the cathedral, Adela noticed that Qi Ge's nervous palms were sweating all the time, and she couldn't help but hold Qi Ge's right hand with both hands.

She looked at Qi Ge with distress, took Qi Ge's hand and rubbed it.

But Qige just kept staring blankly in the direction of the cathedral, saying nothing.

After a long time, Adela bumped Qi Ge with her shoulder and said solemnly to Qi Ge:

“Qige, I have a few questions to ask you, please answer me truthfully.

Although the Holy Spirit of Honesty is no longer with me, I am the Holy Dragon myself and can sense your lies. "

"What's wrong?" Qi Ge was stunned.

Adela didn’t explain and asked directly:

"Let me ask you, if Hades Farm succeeds, will it be beneficial or harmful to the people of Erathia?"

"Of course it is beneficial. I remember I have already explained it to you. The Netherland Farm will not only be beneficial to Erathia, but will also be a huge increase for the entire Yasha world."

"Then let me ask you again, do you have any selfish motives for using baptism to attract people to collect white stones instead of using gold coins?"

“Of course I didn’t, not a penny of the money saved would go into my pocket.

Although Erathia is not as miserable as Avili, it can be considered that it has not been easy to get off the ground.

Once the gold coins are distributed, it will be difficult for the national treasury to get them back. In such a large country, all kinds of infrastructure cost money.

Moreover, White Stone's price is too high, which can easily cause instability in Erathia. "

"Then it's over." Adela smiled slightly, held Qi Ge in her arms, and said tolerantly:

“That’s the best you can get out of a chaotic situation, with a clear conscience.

If one day, even if the people of Erathia know the truth, they will forgive you.

Besides, even if there is no baptism, the price of 30 white stones and 1 gold coin is not a injustice to the people. Baptism is a gift from you, there is no charge.

Nor is baptism purely fake and has no effect.

Human emotions are complex, and the power of emotions affects their bodies and changes their thinking.

When people feel happy, content, and safe, their bodies become more comfortable, experience less pain, and improve memory and learning.

Conversely, when people feel anxious, fearful, or stressed, their bodies spontaneously rush to destruction, increasing the risk of illness while also affecting sleep quality and memory.

In addition, emotions can also affect people's eating habits and exercise habits.

These are things that the church concluded a long time ago.

As long as they firmly believe that baptism has an effect, they will be happy and work and live harder because of the baptism.

I have made it clear that the pastors of our church should heal diseases and injuries for the people during baptism. Although the magic value can be restored, the labor of the pastor is also valuable.

Our pastors of the Holy Griffin Church are all true idealists, theological warriors fighting for the future of Erathia, and are different from the selfish people in the Holy Sky Church. "

"you're right."

Qi breathed a sigh of relief:

"I think it's too complicated. I hope everything can go on the right track."

Boom~~

Boom~~

Boom~~

Just then, three huge bells rang from the bell tower of the cathedral.

A large number of white pigeons staying on the bell tower were disturbed by the sound of the bell, fluttering their wings and flying high to disperse in all directions.

Qi Ge warned, and Luo Xiang immediately drove the carriage and hid behind a building, and the knight responsible for guarding also hid.

As the bells rang, the people of Longgue Port City began to gradually put down their work, looked in the direction of the cathedral, and prepared to listen.

This bell, the cathedral's city-wide message, is rarely rung. Once it is rung, it is a major event that affects everyone.

As residents of houses and shops appeared one after another, the bells gradually stopped ringing and the summons officially began.

"Pass - His Majesty's order! Pass - the Saint's order!"

A senior monk in white robes came out of the cathedral. He used magic to amplify the volume and shouted:

“Starting today, white stones have been collected throughout Erathia.

The white stones collected by the people can be submitted to any cathedral in any city and settled on the spot without delay.

1 gold coin for every 30 white stones.

100 gold coins for every 3000 white stones, plus an additional baptism opportunity.

Warning, no one is allowed to remove whitestone from an existing whitestone building unless they own the building. If found, it will be regarded as theft and there will be no reward but also punishment.

If people go to the wild monster area to collect white rocks, they must be led by a hero, and they cannot go there at will. They need to register in advance and the cathedral will confirm the team's strength.

The above is the order of His Majesty and the order of the Holy Lady. The city lords and churches of Erathia all recognize it and must implement it.

The notice will be posted in the cathedral and hung there for six months.

If you don't know the details, you can go to the cathedral to watch the announcement and ask the clergy. "

The senior monk stood for a while, and then another bell rang.

He nodded twice on each side of the shoulders to all the people, then once more on the head, before turning back to the church.

The last bell marks the end of the announcement.

The ceremony before the monks left represented the Holy Gryphon Church.

Two clicks on each shoulder represent a pair of wings for an angel and a griffon, and one click on the head symbolizes the crown, which is the king's power.

After the announcement was over, Qige immediately started discussing excitedly when he saw the people outside the carriage.

But what surprised Qi Ge was that the crowd's reaction seemed to be clearly polarized.

"Shiraishi? Isn't that something you can just pick up? There are a lot of them in my orchard.

Can this thing be sold for gold coins? "

An orchardist was overjoyed.

"White Stone is not important. If Her Majesty the Queen and the Holy Lady want us, just help them find it. Can they still harm us?"

What matters is the opportunity for baptism!

Thanks to Qingtian Church, baptisms are finally open again. "

A nobleman clapped his hands excitedly and cheered repeatedly.

Qige recognized him. He was Kevin, the owner of Vanilla Carriage Shop. In his previous life, he had a mission to find his lost daughter.

Qi Ge didn't have a very deep impression of him, but he remembered his daughter very clearly.

Very moist.

By the way, Luo Xiang used to pull a carriage under him.

A knight with gray hair holding a heavy sword and leading a war horse laughed excitedly and smiled at Kevin beside him:

"Hahaha, when the Holy Sky Church was still there, I spent half of my family's money to baptize my son once, and then my son was admitted to the Imperial Academy!

If this year goes well, my son will graduate as a hero! "

Kevin was very excited:

"That's really amazing! Brother Vettori, your family is favored by angels.

I think my nephew's name is Vittorio. Last year, I brought two heroes to your home. "

Vettori's face was full of pride.

"Yes, Godric and Dougal are both Vittorio's seniors, one is more powerful than the other.

When they graduated, they were all received by Sir Mrak and Her Majesty the Queen.

Godric also received the knighthood medal personally awarded by Sir Mrak. Even Sir Mrak praised him as an out-and-out model knight and an example of chivalry. "

Kevin is very envious:

"If your son has a good relationship with them, his character and strength must be good.

That's true! Really!

Alas, my sons are no good. They have not been baptized and are quite average. None of them are mature.

This time, I must get the opportunity to be baptized, and it is best to baptize the whole family. "

It cannot be said that the upper echelons of Longgue Port City are celebrating, but everyone is happy.

But on another street just a few houses away, there was a completely different discussion.

"I knew it.

It takes 3,000 white stones to exchange for a baptism. We have to save up until when.

Those rich people will definitely spend money to buy white stones.

Her Majesty the Queen asked for one gold coin and 30 white stones, so they dared to ask others to sell them to them for one gold coin and 15 white stones. The opportunity for baptism must have been taken away by them again. "

A chef selling flower cakes was indignant.

"Hey, isn't it? I thought [Holy Griffin Church] was different from [Holy Sky Church], but what happened? It's still like this.

In the end, only the rich and powerful enjoy it, and our hard work can only be in vain. "

Making a grilled squid seller sigh.

At this moment, a passing young man with a little boy rushed over and yelled:

"How can you say such bad things about the Holy Gryphon Church? What do you know? Do you know how many things the Holy Gryphon Church has done for us? Are you worthy of the Holy Lady?

Apologize, apologize to me. "

The squid merchant and the flower cake merchant suddenly became anxious and shouted one after another.

"Hey, I just said what's wrong? How long has it been, and you still engage in forced belief?

The Church of the Holy Gryphon has abolished compulsory belief, you idiot. "

"They did it. Can they tell if they can do it? The saint is a saint. How can she know so clearly what the people below do."

"You! You!" How could a young man talk to two old fritters? They made him blush.

The three of them started pushing each other on the spot and soon got into a fight.

The people around were trying to stop the fight, trying to stop the fight, and they were all talking and arguing.

Qi Ge took a deep breath, and his palms felt a little cold.

What he worried about most happened.

He stood up suddenly and was about to leave the carriage and go out to mediate, but Adela held him tightly.

"Adela?"

"Don't go." Adela smiled softly, looking emotionless.

"My dear, you are no longer the same Qi Ge.

Now, you control the overall situation of the Yasha world. You are the driver of the carriage. You are very important. You must grasp the general direction and cannot do everything yourself.

Believe in them more. The believers of the Holy Griffin Church are not that incompetent.

They can handle such a small thing. "

As soon as Adela finished speaking, two Yasha Divine Chosen came over with a priest in blue.

They separated the quarrelsome people in a few moments.

After the pastor in blue inquired about the situation, he was not angry. Instead, he said to the two vendors in a friendly manner:

"You have misunderstood.

3,000 white stones can be accumulated as a family unit. The more family members there are, the easier it is to accumulate.

Collect and hand in at any time. You don’t have to wait until 3,000. We will register them one by one. Once 3,000 is reached, one person in the family can be baptized.

White stone is not hard to find, it just takes some time.

If you have this intention, it is not difficult to collect 3,000 pieces.

As for those people spending money to buy Baishi, unless they force others, it is a voluntary business practice, and our church cannot stop it.

But I think that for such a precious thing as baptism, unless the family is too poor, people will find ways to collect 3,000 pieces on their own. If they want to pay more, they may not be able to get it.

Even if someone does sell it, it must be very difficult.

Those sellers selling white stones to those wealthy people can be regarded as additional income.

Are you satisfied with my explanation? "

"this……"

After hearing what the blue-clad pastor said, the squid vendor and the flower cake vendor looked at each other and apologized to the young man and the pastor:

"We misunderstood, I'm sorry."

"Sorry for causing trouble to you."

"it's okay no problem……"

"Don't stand here anymore. Go do whatever you have to do. There's nothing interesting about the excitement."

Soon, under the organization of the blue-clad priest and a group of novice monks, order was restored to the originally chaotic streets.

Adela smiled and explained to Qige:

"Those traders have just been oppressed by the Holy Heaven Church for too long, and they instinctively have some doubts about the Church. Their nature is not bad, and they are not stupid.

When the Holy Sky Church ruled, all the religious policies they implemented were aimed at exploiting civilians.

Most nobles and big businessmen try to become a link in the Holy Sky Church's large chain of exploiting civilians to ensure their own survival, thereby freeing themselves from being exploited.

If things go on like this, the Erathian people's trust in the country will be completely destroyed.

Public trust is a rare thing, easy to destroy but difficult to rebuild. But we, the Holy Gryphon Church, have the confidence to gradually change people’s prejudice against the church over a long period of time.

You see, like today, as long as you tell things clearly, fairly and transparently, they can all understand. "

"That's good, then I'll feel more at ease."

Qi Ge breathed a sigh of relief.

"Give in, give in!"

At this moment, a cargo carriage pulled a whole cart of white stones and rushed over quickly.

This was a smart man who ran outside the city to grab the white stone as soon as he heard the noise. On his carriage, there was also a chosen one from Asa.

It's obvious that the two are in a cooperative relationship.

After this carriage, there were more carriages coming in and out of the major gates of Longgue Port City.

Obviously, Qi Ge underestimated the power of baptism, and there was still a certain degree of turmoil in Longgue Port City.

Fortunately, there are not many white rocks near Longji Port City. After everyone has picked up the surrounding area, they have to go further, and even have to go deep into the wild monster area. Most people are still unwilling to do so, but there are also Qi Ge who expected it. A small number of explorers are willing to take this risk.

The unrest is still within acceptable limits.

Qi Ge observed the whole morning, watching the progress of white stone collection in Longgue Port City increasing, and seeing no other troubles, and then he completely relaxed.

He suddenly understood something.

As a general, he is as cautious as walking on thin ice.

“When your words and deeds have the power to influence the fate of others, you must carefully consider everything you do.

Any mistake could lead to the displacement of hundreds of millions of people. "

"Be cautious. No matter how busy you are at work, you can't give up rest completely."

Adela took Qi Dove’s hand.

"You promised me that if there are no problems with the experiments planned by Shiraishi, you will accompany me to relax."

Seven pigeons are in a relaxed mood, and people feel refreshed during happy events.

He felt that he was in very good shape and could handle three Adelas.

So he patted his chest and said:

"Leave it to me. I'll go with you wherever you want to relax."

Adela said with a smile:

“Then let’s go to the royal capital together.

I heard that a huge sphinx came to the capital this morning, and a human woman and a lioness were preaching.

Their core teachings are:

Erathia does not believe in ballistas and has to believe in angels, so the people would have suffered so much before.

Not believing in the ballista is the root of all evil in Erathia.

The raging fire shines on my mountains and rivers, and the God of the Ballista is booming, booming, booming.

Because their teachings are novel and interesting, they attract many people to join.

The name of their church is [Iron-Blooded Invincible Ballista Cult].

Qi Ge, do you have any idea about them? "

Qi Ge:......

Qi Ge looked at the corner of Adela's mouth where she was suppressing a smile, and her teeth itched with anger.

"It meowed, and I knew who it was as soon as I heard it.

The shame has been thrown to Erathia, I must spread Fei Rui's ass! "

Adela immediately seized the opportunity:

"You can hit me first to practice your hand and get used to it."

Qi Ge:......
