"Where can I go to accumulate divine power? Sir, there are three ways to accumulate divine power. One is through transmission from the body, the other is the dedication of believers, and the third is to feed everyone. From the perspective of time and safety, the third method is the best. , the second type is the most stable, but all risks must be considered. The first type has too much loss, so it is okay for emergency use.”
"So now we are going to distribute food to everyone, and then quietly expand the number of believers, and you must do it yourself, because you have a divine domain that can load a large amount of food. If we use ordinary transportation, we will need hundreds of carriages. The team is so eye-catching." Yin Coin analyzed it with everyone as he walked.
Ange nodded.
Nigris said with disgust: "What you said makes sense, but don't you need to worry about Ironsand City and Stromgarde? Are you just going to leave them alone?"
Yin Coin said seriously: "Of course you have to give priority to adults' matters. Beifeng City is for growing vegetables, and Stromgarde is for selling vegetables. If it were me, I would definitely not choose a place with such a backward business. Methods to raise funds and form consortia.”
Nigris's heart skipped a beat: Zaobada, he had tricked him again, and he showed his loyalty by the way.
A group of people led a carriage to the east, and the horses pulling the carriage were two bone horses. The skeleton knights Basolo mentioned sounded very advanced, and they needed to be recognized by the bone horses.
These two bone horses were found in Iron Sand City. They were more vigorous when they were first brought over. However, after being glared at by Duroken, they became trembling. After being glanced at by Ange, they began to tremble. After all, it was Duroken who forcibly branded the souls, and they returned to normal.
Nowadays, Ange rarely establishes soul connections with ordinary undead creatures like this. There are too many soul network nodes and the quality is uneven, which makes it very troublesome to command them.
The conventional method of operation of the undead empire is for the king to establish soul connections with some high-level undead creatures. These high-level undead creatures then establish connections with ordinary undead creatures to form a pyramid-shaped ruling structure.
So these two bone horses became the subjects of the Ange people, but it wasn't bad. Du Luoken was also the fake king of alchemy. He would have despised such low-level bone horses before.
In order not to be disliked by himself, Duroken took some time to arm the two bone horses, including large iron hooves, metal joint reinforcements, etc.
"Steel-soled mithril hoofs are engraved with the mark of the earth. Each step can resonate with the earth, forming a shock-absorbing effect without attenuating the strength. The joints are strengthened to connect the bones into a whole. Even if the soul is lost, the body will remain intact. It won’t fall apart,” Duroken said.
"It's just pulling a cart. This is too luxurious." Yin Coin said.
Duroken spread his hands and said, "That's why I didn't equip it with full body equipment." This meant that it was already very low-key.
Pulled by two low-key and luxurious bone horses, Ange and his party walked towards the east. The car was filled with rapeseed cakes. Because they were mixed with elf beans, one the size of a fist could be full.
As I was walking, I suddenly saw a skinny little boy on the side of the road. His eyes were dull and his face was expressionless. He looked numbly at Ange and his party. He didn't speak or make any movements. He was like a lost body. The body of the soul.
Silver Coin took out a rape cake and walked over, handed it to the little boy, and said, "May the God of Immortality bless you."
The little boy blinked and his eyes fell on the rapeseed cake in Yin Coin's hand. He was in a daze for a moment and slowly gained some energy.
He couldn't believe it, and cautiously stretched out his hand, looking at the silver coins warily while reaching out.
He handed the silver coin forward with his palm, gesturing for him to take it, and at the same time said: "Take it, the gift of the immortal god, and may you be well fed."
The solemn expression on his face made him look like a magician.
With a swish, the little boy grabbed the rape cake with his lightning-stretching hand, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed hard while staring at the silver coins with red eyes like a frightened rabbit.
Yin Coin was afraid of scaring him, so he showed a kind smile, stepped back step by step, and everyone continued on their way.
Until the team passed the little boy's position, he was still in disbelief. He swallowed the whole rapeseed cake with difficulty. Then, a strong feeling of fullness and satisfaction surged up, causing him to burp.
The little boy had forgotten how many years he had not had a full meal. This strong sense of satisfaction made him feel dazed for a while.
It wasn't until Ange's motorcade had gone far that the little boy suddenly woke up, jumped onto the road, and ran after Ange's motorcade.
Locks and Ji Li at the end of the team heard the noise and looked back.
The little boy quickly knelt on the ground and clicked his head.
Ange looked back in surprise, because he felt a strong belief: the immortal god bless...
Of course, there are also a lot of soul flames dedicated.
Ange took one look and stopped caring. Locks and Ji Li occasionally looked back and found the little boy following him more than ten steps away, neither approaching nor leaving.
They didn't know what to do, so they had to go to the front and ask if they wanted to drive the little boy away.
Yin Coin sighed: "Let him follow. Isn't driving him away the same as driving him to death? A child appears in a place like this. I don't know what kind of suffering he has gone through. Alas."
"Death is a new beginning, may his family's souls rest in peace." Duroken blessed.
Until late in the evening, the little boy did not get lost, but he was still swaying from side to side due to fatigue. Of course, what was even worse was Ji Li, who was already so tired that she kept complaining: "When are we going to rest? I'm exhausted."
"Lord Duroken, you talked about a self-propelled carriage last time. When will it be built? I'm exhausted. My legs don't belong to me anymore."
Silver Coin opened a map and said: "We are going to Drogo City ahead. There is an Immortal Temple there. From now on, we will all be believers of the Immortal God. Don't let it slip... Uh, no, we have always been The immortal god is your disciple, remember.”
Sometimes it’s easy to forget even the silver coins. They are true believers of the Immortal God. It’s just that Ange has too many gods, and he likes to plant things. He is obviously more compatible with the God of Planting, making people forget about him. The main godhead.
Why emphasize their status as immortal believers? Because this is the second most useful identity in the entire world. Apart from undead creatures, the most useful identity is that of immortal believers. No one would dare to casually embarrass a group of people who believe in immortality.
Of course, Yin Coin didn't actually want to use this identity, because he had inquired and found that the number of undead believers was actually very small. If the undead empire hadn't been working hard to spread, the undead temple might have disappeared long ago because it didn't work.
If you think about it, you know that the Immortal Godhead is in the main plane. The prayers of believers here are not answered, and no miracles ever come. The promotion of the Immortal Empire is not serious. It is strange that there are too many believers.
But no matter how small the number of believers is, this is also the 'official' religion of the Immortal Empire, the state religion. Even if you don't believe it, you will never dare to provoke them casually.
However, this also brings another problem. I don't dare to provoke them casually, but if I dare to provoke them, they are not casual goods, so Yin Coin doesn't want to use this identity, and hopes to use the identity of the Spirit Dragon Knights.
Unfortunately, Captain Naiwen ran too fast and didn't have time to fool him. He didn't leave any token behind, and it was too easy to fake him.
They couldn't reach Drogo City in a short time. Silver Coin waved to the back, signaling the little boy to come over.
Along the way, Ange and others did not chase him away. The little boy's vigilance was gone and he ran up when he saw the wave.
"Are you tired? Come and sit in the car. What's your name?" Yin Coin carried him to the carriage and handed him a new rapeseed cake.
"Jamie." The little boy answered vaguely as he took the rapeseed pancake and gnawed it vigorously.
A rapeseed pancake can fill your stomach, but after running around for an afternoon, the food in your stomach has long been digested.
"Jamie, are you willing to serve the Immortal God?" Silver Coin asked solemnly.
Feeling the warmth rising in his stomach, Jamie nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice. If serving the immortal god meant eating rapeseed cakes every day, he was very willing.
"Okay, from now on, you are the priest of the immortal god. Remember three sentences: the immortal god bless you, may your soul be at peace; the immortal god's gift, may you be well fed; Lord Ange, please save your life. ! Remember it?” Silver Coin’s on-site teaching.
Jamie nodded, is it so easy? Is it too easy to become a priest of the immortal god? Who is Lord Ange?
No matter who he was, his belief in the immortal god was as pious as this piece of rapeseed cake. Jamie swallowed the last bite of rapeseed cake fiercely, his heart as firm as a stone.
Two hours later, some sparse fire spots appeared in front, and Drogo City arrived.
Drogo City is a main city with a population of more than 100,000. It has a teleportation array, an immortal temple, a palace of knowledge, various guilds and chambers of commerce, etc. It is more prosperous than Beifeng City, which is also a main city.
But at this moment, outside the city of Drogo, it turned into a refugee camp, and the sparse spots of fire were the fires in the refugee camp.
On both sides of the main road, countless refugees used stones, leaves, rags, nets, etc. to separate them casually and became their own shelter. Because there were so many, even firewood could not be found nearby. Reluctant to give up life, the family huddled together and shivered.
Seeing Ange and his party walking by, women and children stood up one by one in these shelters that were not even shacks, looking at Ange and others timidly and expectantly, their eyes praying for something, but they didn't Dare to step forward.
Lux and Ji Li couldn't stand this kind of gaze, and Ji Li couldn't help but want to open her satchel.
Yin Coin shouted from the front: "Ji Li."
Ji Li looked over and saw Yin Coin shaking his head. She was a little unconvinced and ran to the front and asked in a low voice: "I want to give them my own beef cake, can't I? The child just now was only two years old and was so hungry They are all big, and their eyes are looking straight at me."
"If you want to cause chaos or kill them, then do this." Yin Coin said with a wry smile: "Don't worry, let me see what's going on here first."
The city gate obviously wouldn't be open at this time, so Ange and his party found a remote corner to stop, and Yin Coin went out to inquire about the news.
Not long after, he came back with a human who had a similar temperament to him but was more timid. Needless to say, this human was also a businessman.
Let the human merchants wait far away, and Silver Coin came over to report: "Sir, there was some chaos in Drogo City two months ago, but the major chambers of commerce have maintained order. More than a month ago, the Empire sent After people sent the Immortal Scepter, this place became completely stable, so refugees from all around gathered here."
"At the beginning, Drogo City took in some refugees to work, but as the number of refugees increased, Drogo City began to be unable to accommodate them. Now they dare not recruit people, and even closed the city gates and restricted When the food in the city is released, others are not allowed to come out to provide disaster relief. I guess they want the refugees to disperse on their own."
"Why are you dispersing on your own? Are you just waiting for people to starve to death? Who restricted the food in the city? Not allowing others to come out to provide disaster relief? Someone wants to come out to provide disaster relief? Who?" asked Negris.
Although Nigris doesn't know much about the world, he understands history. There are too many examples in history of letting victims starve to death to eliminate famine. He can see through the sinister intentions of the city's rulers at a glance.
The victims gathered outside the city. Without food assistance, they couldn't go anywhere else. So there were only two outcomes: they could starve to death on the road after leaving here, or they could starve to death here.
This is a very inhumane approach, but it is often the only way. Unless the city can produce food out of thin air, if the food is not enough, they will not even dare to provide disaster relief. Otherwise, refugees in other places will be shocked when they hear the news. They swarm around until they eat all the stored food.
In the main plane, Anthony allocates resources, distributes victims, and organizes production in the Eastern Diocese, so particularly tragic humanitarian disasters rarely occur.
But now, the organizational structure of the Immortal Empire has collapsed. No one can allocate resources and distribute the victims. Everyone will only gather where there is food, and either eat up the whole place or starve to death.
"Is the situation already so serious?" Duroken asked in surprise.
Yin Coin shook his head: "It's not the worst yet. Although there are many victims of the disaster, there is still food, but no one dares to take it out. They are hoarding it just in case. If production cannot be resumed, farming will be missed." , next year will be the worst time.”
"Then what should we do now? We have to speed up, otherwise more people will starve to death." Nigris said anxiously.
Silver Coin said: "I didn't expect there were so many disaster victims outside the city, so we can change our plan and recruit workers in the name of the Temple of the Immortal."
Early the next morning, several local businessmen took the silver coins they gave them and started shouting on the street: "We are recruiting, the Temple of the Immortal is recruiting. Those who believe in the Immortal God can apply for the job, and food will be included."
Ding! Free food? Everyone who heard this sentence immediately felt the belief in the immortal god in their hearts.
The silver coins had been arranged last night, and the staff to maintain order, guide the flow of people, and distribute food were all available. Having experience in Stromgarde, it was easy to arrange the people.
Everyone received a piece of rapeseed bread, and when receiving the bread, they all heard the words: "The gift of the immortal God, may you be satisfied."
Eating rapeseed pancakes with the fragrance of vegetables and feeling the warmth in their stomachs, many people couldn't help but cry, feeling truly grateful to the immortal god in their hearts.
Ji Li quietly found the mother and daughter who were staring at her yesterday, and quietly gave them a piece of beef cake.
There were more than 10,000 victims outside the city. They brought two waves of soul flames to Ange. One wave belonged to the god of planting. Everyone who ate the vegetable balls contributed, and the other wave It belongs to the Immortal God and is dedicated by those who are pious and grateful to the Immortal God.
Ange had never cared much about the power of faith before, because he couldn't use all the magical skills here, whether it was the quick-death halo, the divine fist, elemental transformation, or even the ultimate transformation. He had accumulated too much faith. The force is useless.
But now, with the influx of these two waves of soul flames, Ange felt a little strange. He stepped hard on the ground and the quick-death halo spread.
Ange kicked it away immediately. The area of effect was full of living people, and they were all hungry victims. The rapeseed cake he had just eaten had to be digested in two minutes under the quick-death halo.
But Nigris felt it, flew over and said in shock: "Can the quick-death halo be used?"
