Chapter 195: The holy light and the earth fool you together

  Chapter 195 The Light and the Earth Fool You Together

   "Preacher?" David looked at the man who appeared out of nowhere, and looked at Gareth Stanton next to him in surprise.

   This missionary named Raines was brought here by Gareth Stanton.

   "This missionary was introduced by Earl Sutton Stewart." Gareth Stanton explained the situation in the simplest terms.

  Hearing that it was Earl Sutton Stewart, David immediately understood what was going on.

At the beginning, he learned about some plans of the temple through the wiretapping device in the royal capital. It has been almost a year since he came back and he has not seen any special movement. He thought that the pharmacist Cordell was specially arranged by the temple to be by his side. chess pieces.

   I didn’t expect there to be missionaries coming here…

  Thinking about this situation is also very reasonable. If the Temple wants to develop believers in the northern part of the Kingdom of Tilan, someone must be responsible for preaching.

  This kind of work cannot be entrusted to someone like a 'spy' or a 'pharmacist'.

"Welcome to Cold Winter Town, Missionary Raines." After welcoming the missionary, David "pretentiously" asked, Missionary Raines ran all the way from the Holy Kingdom of Gaunt Is there any important thing to do at the northernmost border of the Kingdom of Tilan?

"In order to spread the Gospel of the gods." Missionary Raines explained his purpose very happily. He planned to build a church here in the town of Winter, and then spread the teachings of the temple, so that the people in the northernmost part of the continent, the Kingdom of Tilan The kingdom has also become a place where the brilliance of the gods can shine.

  Before coming here, he was not satisfied with this task, and felt that going to a remote village with a harsh environment was really not a task worth looking forward to.

  Even if it succeeds, he doesn't think that a remote town can affect the entire Tilan Kingdom. He is not very optimistic about the plan to gradually affect the core of the kingdom from the periphery.

  But the task has been given to him, and he has no room to refuse, so he can only bite the bullet and embark on the northernmost road to the Kingdom of Tilan.

   Along the way, he felt more and more that this task was a headache for him, and he was afraid that he would suffer for many years in this remote countryside.

  He even wondered if he had offended someone? Was he sent to this kind of place?

   When he arrived on the northern plain and looked at the rough and backward small villages, he had already started to figure out who his enemies were?

   Until we reach Cold Winter Town!

   I have to say that when the completed Cold Winter Town appeared in front of his eyes, he once suspected that he was going in the wrong direction.

  Reigns thought that he had not come to the remote border of the Tilan Kingdom, but the most prosperous and lively area of ​​the Holy Gunter Kingdom.

   Only there can you see such a beautiful, gorgeous and clean town.

   "No, even those places can't be cleaner and tidier than here!"

The houses in Rinwinter Town are all beautifully built, and there is no dirty, smelly filth and garbage on the flat and wide road, which is enough to make the road with several carriages driving side by side look very imposing, and further set off the palace in the distance The momentum is extraordinary.

  Reigns, who realized that his mission was actually not that bad, immediately went from the abyss to heaven, which is why he was in such a state when he met Lord David Glamorgan, the lord of Cold Winter Town.

  However, when he greeted Lord Baron David Glamorgan, hoping to build a temple dedicated to the gods in Cold Winter Town, the baron was very indifferent.

   This is not surprising. People in the Kingdom of Tilan do not believe in the gods of the temple, otherwise they would not have let him travel all the way to Cold Winter Town.

  The missionary had anticipated the troubles he would encounter next, so he decided to start his work immediately. At any rate, he had obtained consent from the lord to build a house of his own.

  Of course, the local construction team in Cold Winter Town must be hired, and a piece of 'land' must be purchased from the lord first.

  Although the lord said that only areas where infrastructure has been built can residential houses be built, he doesn't quite understand what that means.

  But it is understood that money is enough! For Raines, who had enough start-up funds, this was no trouble at all!

  Things that can be solved with money are not considered problems!

   "If you can spend money to let the lord of Cold Winter Town help you promote the temple belief."

It's a pity that Baron Glamorgan didn't take up this topic at all. He only said that the people in Cold Winter Town believe what they believe, and it's their freedom. law.

  In any case, Raines got a piece of land and could preach in Cold Winter Town, and his mission officially began.

   So far, everything is going well. It wasn't until he started to contact the people here in Rinwinter Town that he discovered that many people here have their own beliefs.

   "Holy Light? What's that?"

  Until this time, Rains did not know that the huge building located in the southwest of Winter Fortress was called the Holy Light Cathedral. People here generally believed in a kind of existence called Holy Light, and the Holy Light Cathedral was built for this...

  After seeing Raines, David returned to his office, called Edwin Van Cleef, and asked him to focus on this missionary from the Holy Kingdom of Gaunt.

   "If he preaches the faith of the Temple to the townsfolk, you know what to do..."

   "Yes, my lord, I understand what to do."

  So, when Rains was discussing beliefs with the residents of Cold Winter Town, there would always be someone who interjected at a 'timely' time, saying, 'We believe in the Holy Light'.

  Since most of the people in Cold Winter Town are former members of the Masonry Union and their relatives from Azeroth, everyone agrees with this answer.

  Even if Reigns bumps into the "indigenous people of this world" occasionally, someone will rush to answer at the right time.

Because they have lived together for a long time, the farmers are already familiar with each other, and no one will notice the difference when they are mixed together. The people who interrupted are indeed farmers from Cold Winter Town, so Raines can't see it. Something went wrong.

  Besides, it is no secret that Holy Light is in Rinwinter Town. As the number of people using Holy Light increases, more and more people have seen Holy Light.

   Occasionally, residents have headaches, brain fever, or injuries. They can find someone who knows the Holy Light in Cold Winter Town and can get treatment quickly.

  Especially when Liadrin and Sally Whitemane, the two priests of the Holy Light, came to Cold Winter Town, when they saw someone in need of help, even if the other party didn't ask for help, they would offer to help.

The two priests of the Holy Light quickly spread the Holy Light in Cold Winter Town, which is not a big town. Therefore, even if someone "replaces" him to answer the question, these "natives" will echo and say, "No!" Wrong, we Gadas all believe in the Holy Light! '.

   In this way, Raines couldn't detect any abnormalities, he only felt a huge crisis: What exactly is the Holy Light? Why did he gain such strong recognition in this remote place?

   Just when he was in a daze and continued to wander around Cold Winter Town, wanting to learn more information, he met Mark Watney who had nothing to do recently and was planting new fruits in his field.

   Tried to ask again, and finally didn't hear the word "holy light" from the other party's mouth. When he tried to ask the other party if he had any "faith", he got a reply that made him even more confused.

   "Mother Earth is protecting you!"

   "???"

  When Raines fell into a state of confusion, David was listening to the information brought back by Floyd and Krause.

"One hundred knights (cavalry) from the Iron Tree Knights? Three hundred well-equipped elite infantry and one hundred strong archers?" David looked at the two people in front of him, and was a little surprised by the "number of reinforcements" they gave: "Iron Tree Fort has spent a lot of money this time."

  He did not question whether the information brought back by the two was accurate, because Klausar and Freud not only carefully observed the situation of the reinforcements, but even took many photos.

"In addition, there are nearly a thousand auxiliary soldiers." The thousand auxiliary soldiers are recruited farmers. These are semi-professional soldiers who have received training. After issuing some weapons and simple protective gear when necessary, It can also be pulled into the battlefield.

  Under normal circumstances, these auxiliary soldiers are only responsible for auxiliary tasks such as transporting materials and setting up camps.

  Looking at the photos in front of him, David also noticed another pile of photos, all of which were various ruins: "These are... the villages in the eastern part of the northern plain?"

   "Yes! Clauser and I went to the east to check. Presumably this is the real reason why Iron Tree Fort sent reinforcements."

  David looked at the photos quietly, and finally saw a large number of orcs in a few photos, and even a photo of an orc drawing a bow and shooting an arrow at the person who took the photo: "Oh, this photo is not bad!"

   Throwing away the photo in his hand, David had another thing in mind: the number of orcs is growing too fast! Where did so many orcs come from? Could it be that the eastern part of the northern plain is connected to another area? There are a lot of orcs living in that area?

   "It seems that this winter in Snowfield Castle will be very lively..."

"My lord." After Floyd reported the necessary military information, he said another thing: "On the way back, Krause and I went to see the support army again to make sure that they were indeed It is heading towards Snowfield Castle."

   It is basically certain that this army is targeting the orcs, and David doesn't have to worry about waking up, and there will be a bunch of people lined up on the plain outside Cold Winter Town waiting to be shot.

   "However, there is a small team that broke away from the main force. Judging from the direction of the opponent's advance, it may be that they want to come to Cold Winter Town."

   "Oh?" David lowered his head and rummaged through the photos, and Floyd immediately found some of them for David to check.

   At first glance, David saw an acquaintance in the photo: "Isn't this Maloney Mansfield?"
