The **** of commerce, Baufar, is regarded as the protector of merchants and the witness of various trade activities. There are also subtle branches of authority such as the **** of currency, the **** of prosperity, and the protector of meeting places.
At the same time, this **** also has an interesting characteristic. He is regarded as the protector of the poor and the protector of the rich. The rich hope that he can protect themselves and continue to be rich, and the poor hope that this **** can bless themselves out of poverty. When worshiped as the **** of the rich, his name is Baufar, and when worshiped as the **** of the poor, his name becomes Fabaul. This "two in one" phenomenon is among the gods It is unique.
Although there are many powers, among the numerous gods of Loren, this deity originally originated from the western region of the mainland does not have a very high sense of existence. Although the distribution of the church of the God of Commerce is still widespread, its core believers are only It is concentrated in the merchant group, and this group was regarded as a minority in the north of the mainland until the emergence of the "Cecilian business order". A large number of ordinary people are usually more accustomed to spreading to the richness and the holy light and having directness to themselves" The gods of "benefits" offer their faith, so the Church of the God of Commerce has always been regarded as the second or even third line in Cecil.
But on the other hand, it’s also a good thing that the business **** Baufar’s beliefs are not strong. Just because he has fewer followers and weaker church power, the chains between this **** and the world will not be too strong. When the new-era trade order that Searle brought was unfolding vigorously all over the world, especially when subversive concepts such as commercial wars and modern finance developed rapidly, it was obvious that this **** was not as fatal as the God of War (1/1). It is still maintained in a relatively stable state.
Considering that the fighting power of the God of Commerce among the gods is likely to be at the same level as the deities in the art field, his lack of madness is obviously a good thing for later history candidates to have at least two major questions.
In the southern part of Cecil City, the church district, the heavily armed city security forces, and the priests of the Theocracy Council in heavy armor have completed the blockade of all the intersections near the Church of the God of Commerce.
In the cold wind, a young security team member in a black uniform sneezed. He subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the closed church not far away, and saw several colleagues in the small square in front of the church. Handing over the work with the trial monks sent by the Theocracy. Wearing pure white armor, holding a mechanical power warhammer and the gospel scriptures, monks who are more than two meters tall stand in front of ordinary security team members like steel giants, and look daunting. , But their extraordinarily tall figures are also a source of peace of mind for everyone here.
The security team looked at the other side of the square again. A large truck had just stopped near the intersection. Several priests wearing theocratic council uniforms who appeared to be technical monks jumped out of the car. Several others The trainee monk was using the magic terminal to transfer some heavy machine parts from the car to the square. Those parts seemed to be assembled into a large equipment. Seeing the serious faces of several technical monks, the security team couldn’t help but guess that the equipment might It is the anti-divine barrier generator that can shield the gods in the legend.
"What are you looking at?" The colleague on the side suddenly bumped the arm of the young security team member, causing the latter who was looking around to regain his senses. He shrank his neck subconsciously in the cold wind, and turned his eyes to his colleague. He mumbled casually: "A lot of amazing guys have come... Have you seen the trial monk with three scripture ribbons on his armor just now? That is afraid it is not the trial knight commander of the arbitration tribunal?"
"You look so serious to see the trial monk?" The colleague next to him suddenly glanced at the young man with weird eyes, "I thought you were looking at the nun..."
The young security team suddenly frowned: "It's impolite to talk about ladies like this, and it's still talking about the nuns of the Theocracy. You are careful to be heard by the trial monks in the square..."
"You are too nervous. The Theocracy is not a regular church, and their nuns are not incapable of dating." The colleague patted the young man on the shoulder. "I heard that Roger from the second brigade next door succeeded The nuns of the arbitration tribunal have come together. The lady is not as scary as the priest of the arbitration tribunal in the impression of ordinary people outside. People also go to get off work and go shopping and fall in love. Look at you, the boss is not young, and you can’t find it in the security team. When it’s suitable, you might as well consider..."
"It's okay, it's not that I don't know this," the young man waved his hand, and casually interrupted the colleague's chatter. "You only talk about Roger from the second team, why don't you talk about Quinn from the third team? His girlfriend is still The nun of the Holy Light Church, he has been on the balcony for two weeks..."
"...Um...That is from the Holy Light Church after all..."
"Forget it, I won't tell you this." The young man didn't let this increasingly crooked topic continue, but turned his gaze to the church. "Do you know what's going on? We are in such a hurry. I was hurriedly called here. When I came here, the entire church was sealed off. Now it even alarmed the trial priests of the arbitration tribunal, as well as the big machine on the square... Ordinary incidents can't be used for this!"
"I don't know, I was 15 minutes earlier than you, and the captain didn't tell me anything. Did you see those over there? Everyone is the same. They were all suddenly called over when they were patrolling. "The colleague shrugged. "But even the church is blocked. It is normal for the arbitration tribunal to be alerted, and it is definitely a big issue that only'professionals' can handle. We are here to maintain law and order." , Don’t ask so much."
The young security team member listened to his colleague's muttering, but still couldn't help but look a little uneasy. He looked at the church and the trial monks for several times, and finally couldn't help muttering in a low voice: " You said...Will there be one less **** this year, right?"
"Hey! You can't talk nonsense about this!" The colleague's face changed suddenly, and he glanced at the young man extremely nervously, "Do you know that my nephew wrote a two-month essay at Imperial College about the God of Business, he graduated This paper is missing!"
"...Co-authoring you are just nervous about your nephew's paper?"
"Nonsense, am I nervous about other things? I'm not a character like our majesty..."
At this moment, a black magic car without any signs suddenly drove from the direction of the street. Accompanied by the sound of the car whistle and the uniform retreat of the two trial monks on the sentry post, the car went straight over the two fronts. The security team member who raised his head when he heard the movement passed through the church square under martial law and drove towards the side door of the cathedral.
Gawain was sitting in the back seat of the magic car. Through the crystal glass on the side, his gaze swept across the newly assembled anti-divine barrier on the edge of the square, his serious expression relaxed a little: "The Theocracy The response was quick."
"After all, they are all professionals, and they were brought up by Wright and Veronica personally." Amber's voice came from the side. She was sitting next to Gao Wen's body. At this time, she was also lying next to the window, looking at the other side of the square. "There are a lot of churches on this street..."
"This is the early plan, so that it will be more convenient whether it is people flow management under normal circumstances or blockade in emergency situations." Gao Wen subconsciously glanced at the distance when he heard the words, and saw the spires or towers of several other churches with rows of roofs. There was a flash above, and he said casually, “It seems that this kind of plan is indeed prescient. If all the gods’ kingdoms are in the “Lady of the Night”, then all churches will be the focus of monitoring in the near future. If there is no such a The easy-to-manage church district, I am afraid that all the security teams and trial monks in the city will be exhausted during this time."
"Yes, it's easy to manage, but you can do this," Amber couldn't help muttering as she listened, "Such a church district...The church of the fertile three gods is next to the blood god, business Opposite the Church of the Gods of Music is the temple of the Gods of Music and Poetry. There is a circle of second- and third-tier churches next to the Holy Light Church in the center of the block. The most sacred "Earth Kingdom of God" in other places is made by you. Like the market, last month the saint of the three gods of fertility and the priest of the blood **** also made a noise to the property management office because of a sewer problem. How big are the two people, go to the property management office to quarrel with this in the name of gods...
"You are not so much that there are a dozen churches on this street, I think this style of painting is more like the gods gathered in the city and opened a dozen intermediaries."
Hearing Amber’s muttering, Gawain only showed a smile that was not a smile. He just listened quietly, and only after the other party finished speaking did he happily say: "Don’t you think this is good?"
Amber laughed. Of course she knew what Gawain was talking about: "That's right, since we want to'de-sacred', of course we have to start with positioning the cathedral as'the intermediary of the gods in the world', and Theoretically speaking, when the church district was set up, the representatives of the various churches also enthusiastically supported the wise measures of the emperor. Now it is too late for them to quarrel."
Gao Wen shook his head: "I don't think that a saint and a priest would really go to the property management office to quarrel about the sewer. Even if this matter really exists, there are countless people under them who can handle this. You can only say that these two priests are very smart. They have adapted to the new rules of this era very well, and figured out exactly what the theocracy wanted them to do. This is the same as the batch of'heretics' we executed back then. It's very different. But regardless of the root cause, this is always a good thing."
Amber opened his eyes and listened to Gawain's analysis of this. It took him a long time to blink his eyes and sighed convincingly: "Why don't you say that you are the old Yinbi? What other Yinbi do with you is like bright and frank..."
Gao Wen frowned immediately: "Is there anything you are so complacent about?"
Amber suddenly gritted her teeth. When the old zongzi looked serious, it was her biggest interest in her daily life. Although it was accompanied by a certain risk, she jumped repeatedly on the edge of being beaten. Really happy, especially when she noticed that the magic car had begun to slow down, and the fat priest with a sad and nervous face was already standing under the steps and waiting, which meant that she had succeeded in the extreme challenge today, and Gao Wen must not be outside. Beat her in front of people.
Gao Wen knows this stuff carefully, but he doesn't care about it.
The magic car stopped.
The middle-aged priest, who was standing at the bottom of the steps, was accompanied by several senior priests, had a slightly blessed stature, greeted him immediately, and saluted him immediately after getting off the car. He drew out the balance on his chest, and then shook his hands. Slightly bowed: "Salute to you, your wise and powerful Majesty, I really didn't expect you to handle this personally, so that we can feel more at ease..."
"Just forgive the etiquette, Archbishop Boris," Gao Wen waved his hand. "What's the situation now? I heard that the ‘imprint’ caused by the vision covers the entire hall? Is anyone contaminated?"
"Yes, those terrible imprints are like invisible heavy objects crushing the entire room. The hard slate floor is crushed and even the altar is turned into powder." Archbishop Boris who is in charge of the church here Immediately he replied. Because of a huge trouble, the archbishop looked sad at the moment. "Fortunately, the protective equipment installed by the council is set in the corridor around the hall. The damage caused by the vision was not damaged. When the anti-divine barrier is complete, the entire Pian Hall is still completely enveloped by the protective force field."
Speaking of this, the bishop who was assigned to the imperial capital to act as the "spokesperson" between the church and the royal family paused and adjusted his expression: "The second good news is that I happened to be processing official documents near the hall when the vision happened. After I noticed the abnormal energy shock for the first time, I immediately ordered all passages leading to the entire corridor area to be blocked. Therefore, there were no people approaching the side hall after the accident, and no one was polluted.
"At present, only me and two high-level deacons have entered the side hall to check the situation. We have just been inspected by the Theocracy and confirmed that we have not been contaminated."
The archbishop’s words have some inviting credits, but I have to say that his emergency treatment is indeed quite quick and correct, including the inspection of the vision site and the work of the Theocracy Council. The content is also impeccable, so Gao Wen is really relaxed. Sighed.
No one was contaminated by the gods in the vision incident involving the gods. This is great news no matter what.
"Take me to the side hall," Gao Wen nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Except for me and the intelligence chief, all the entourages are on standby outside the corridor area."
"Your Majesty," the fat middle-aged priest subconsciously said after hearing Gao Wen's order, "You want to enter the Pian Hall yourself? Would it be a bit...Of course, I know your magical ability without fear of God's will, but in the Pian Hall That terrible crushing impression shows that this vision is not only on the level of spiritual pollution, but may also be accompanied by some powerful physical destruction..."
"Thank you for reminding me. I will confirm the situation first after I get to the scene, but there are some things that I need to take a look at myself," Gao Wen nodded to the fat priest, "Lead the way first, I have my own measures."
Archbishop Boris saw that His Majesty’s heart was determined, so he couldn’t say anything. He nodded and agreed: "Yes, Your Majesty, please come with me."
After a while, Gawain and Amber entered the cathedral under the leadership of the archbishop, crossed the blockade, entered the corridor leading to the side hall, and finally came to the door of the side hall where the vision occurred.
The heavy and beautiful wooden door stood quietly at the end of the corridor and looked intact. From the outside, it was completely impossible to imagine what happened behind the door.
As Boris said, the vision was completely confined to the inside of the Pian Hall and did not affect the outside.
