Chapter 572 Businessman-Potential Crisis

 The federal capital of Calais, the city-state of Calais.

 A building with red tiles has a hospital sign hanging on it.

 Compared with the clinic models in many places in the Serphi world, the medical system in the city-state of Calais has undoubtedly begun to become more professional.

This hospital not only has an independent building, but also has clear divisions within the wards.

 Also, you can smell a faint smell of alcohol in the air, but it means that the disinfection process has been carried out accordingly.

After all, there are enough mages in Calais. Although many mages will not develop anything purely for people's livelihood, some of the theoretical knowledge they have gained from their own research will also be passively used here.

For example, plague itself is actually a direction that necromancers often research.

This is not to say that all necromancers are evil. Many necromancers in Calais have considered the treatment and impact of the plague, and have also found the source of the disease.

 Maintaining cleanliness and disinfection, coupled with some magic potions they refined, can already help the patients to a certain extent.

However, it is a pity that the refining of the potion itself is still too cumbersome and the output is low.

Facing a plague that is prone to large-scale outbreaks, it is usually a drop in the bucket. At most, it can rescue nobles and some important figures in the affected areas.

However, Calais has now begun to implement some management laws on toilets and sanitation. As time goes by, there has been no large-scale outbreak of plague in Calais for a long time.

 At this time, in a ward of this hospital, several figures wearing robes were quietly watching the reactions of the people on the bed with indifferent expressions.

 After confirming that everyone's symptoms had subsided, even a mage showed no emotion on his face.

"It's really effective. Although this special potion does not have any magical flavor, it does have a huge killing effect on the source of the plague. Moreover, the principle is completely different from that of alcohol. It can achieve very good effects at low concentrations. In humans It can also have a huge effect inside the body.”

“I didn’t expect it to be true... I just don’t know the price now. To a certain extent, this is more effective than many magic potions.”

 “Can you find a way to copy it?”

“It should be the secretion of a special microorganism, which is very difficult to copy.”

 “Find a way to find this special creature, and then we can use it accordingly!”

Several mages were constantly discussing with each other. These were some things that Master Yao brought back from the savage tribe. After their testing, the effects of these things were incredible!

 For mages, especially necromancers, it is commonplace to cultivate germs such as plague and place them in the mage tower.

 Just randomly selected a few unlucky ones for experimentation.

 And the effect is quite amazing!

In addition to plague, they also conducted multiple tests on wounds such as knife wounds and infections.

 The effects are extremely significant.

 Life potions are often forcibly replenishing the source, and healing potions are also forcibly restoring wounds.

  Even now they know the importance of disinfection and debridement, which has greatly increased efficiency.

 But this strange potion really made up for their shortcomings.

This potion cannot replace magic potions such as life and healing, but it can perfectly complement it!

  And it has a very good effect even when used alone.

  Nutrition and recovery, the human body can solve the problem by itself after these disease sources disappear, especially for people with strong physiques.

“The news brought by Master Yao said that although these potions are not cheap, they are much cheaper than the potions we sell. If we add the savage’s magic airship..."

 For a time, the faces of the mages from the experimental observation group looked a little solemn and ugly.

"An enlarged meeting of the whole body should be held this time to see how it will be handled. The strength of the savages is not weak."

A blond mage looked solemn, causing an old mage next to him who was stroking his gelled head to snort coldly.

“Hmph, so what if our strength is not weak! It’s impossible to just let it go without giving an explanation when it touches on our core interests!”

　Judging from his angry expression, he may be someone with significant interests in medicine or transportation.

 With the completion of several sets of experiments in Calais.

 Coupled with the important information brought back by Yao and the others, an emergency enlarged general meeting was quickly held in the floating castle in the center of the Calais city-state.

 A large number of city-state representatives and mages participated.

Even a representative of Leo's Floating City stationed in Calais attended the meeting.

“Everyone, I think you already know the news that Master Yao and Mr. Colin brought back from Keton…”

The person in charge is the Grand Elder of the Calais Council of Elders, a great mage who can use eighth-level magic, and was once the apprentice of the talented great mage who is expected to be legendary.

His prestige in Calais is quite high, and he also has a relationship with the floating city of Leo, which can be regarded as one of the links between the two parties.

This time Yao and Colin came back without adding any extra fuss.

 Except for the things about gods that are not mentioned, most of them are directly mentioned!

 The savage’s character, characteristics, estimated strength, and the principles of those firearms were all revealed.

Even the situation of the gods was mentioned, but it was still mentioned that the resurrection of the savages came at a high price...

“…As you can see from the news, the savages have indeed been favored by the gods. Even if there are serious side effects, the ability to resurrect from the dead is something that even vampires in the past could not popularize.”

“Facing a group of immortal enemies is indeed troublesome, but their strength is much weaker than the original vampires.”

“Actually, it’s best to use our strength to fight. Otherwise, even if we have the upper hand, the losses will outweigh the gains in a head-on collision.”

　　　…”

There is no qualitative gap in strength. Fighting against a not weak opponent is actually a thankless behavior. Calais, a country founded on business, will still be cautious.

 Otherwise, conflicts will spiral and it will be difficult to control them.

 It's just that this time the other party has touched one's core interests, but it cannot be ignored!

“Perhaps, we can capture a few savages to study them first.”

 Someone made a suggestion, and then Yao spoke again

“I can move my mage tower near the Principality of Nott, and the savages I mentioned before are also willing to provide paid cooperation experiments.”

Hearing Yao take the initiative to speak, many people also expressed their agreement.

A great mage sits on the border with a mage tower, and the deterrence is definitely sufficient.

“Well, since the savages are not monolithic, we will find a way to divide them and let them fight among themselves, while we sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.”

“The Keton side is occupying the Western Mountain Territory. Nott has asked us for help many times, so it’s almost time to intervene.”

"While we are researching this kind of goods, we can also purchase them in large quantities. Relationships are relationships, and business is business. This still needs to be distinguished..."

 Chapter 911

As more and more savages appeared, as well as those "traveling traders" who were running around with their luggage on their backs, the reputation of the savages' specialties spread instantly!

No matter which product is launched, it can be said to be able to subvert the current industry market.

 Just like when Calais just started to use magic for convenient civilian use!

And the savages’ magic airship also appeared in Xishan City, representing the birth of another force that can use magic airships!

The most interesting thing is that Xishan City already has Calais’ airship dock. Although it is not a completely matching model, the dock can be easily completed by relying on ropes.

 The local products from the earth have finally shown their value.

It even made other countries nearby start to look askance.

  Various intelligence agents sent pieces of information back to the country, and organizations dominated by intelligence such as the Thieves Guild, the Brotherhood, and the Bard Guild also sold a large amount of relevant intelligence.

 The news gradually spread to the entire Middle-earth continent, and even the entire Sephi world!

Originally, Wang Yi's elf-style song has been widely circulated.

This subsequent savage news is also complementary to each other.

Because Wang Yi is one of the Minstrel Guild's members, other poets have also compiled some related compositions that tell the story of recent events.

 At the same time, some gossip about the savages receiving the favor of the gods also began to spread...

 …

 Earl Luke unexpectedly occupied the Western Mountain Territory. Because he almost wiped out the Nott nobles in the Western Mountain Territory and captured the Scarlet Duke, he absorbed and digested it very quickly.

  After all, in this era, it doesn't matter to ordinary people at all, and they are used to the lords changing.

Even if there is no external war, the internal nobility will still change. Even if there is a normal inheritance of the territory, the new lord may have completely different regulations.

At first, Xishan City was not built on the river bank across the water from Dunnuo. The main reason was that the connection between Xishan Territory and Nuote Fortress mainly relied on a Xishan Canyon, and other areas were blocked by the Xishan Mountains.

With this kind of natural danger, although there are opposing legions on Nott's side, and a great knight who has arrived urgently is sitting on the guard, it is undoubtedly a dream to counterattack...

Wang Yi has also completed the takeover and renovation of the Xishan Mage Tower, which can be regarded as opening a new map again.

Cooperating with the Master Yao Tower who is preparing to fly to the Nott border, the Calais map will be opened soon!

In addition, Lin Shiqin has also been completing the construction of several mage tower modules simultaneously.

 At that time, we will work on adding floating modules. As long as we obtain some corresponding permissions, we can quickly distribute these.

But at this moment, Luke, who had taken advantage of the natural danger and gained the geographical advantage, put down what he was doing and came back to find Wang Yi.

“Master Yi, someone in the Mother Goddess Temple wants to ask you for some information. I wonder what you mean?”

Although Luke is a top knight and has the potential to become a legend, facing Wang Yi, he still took the initiative to lower himself to a lower level.

The other party had already been kind to him by saving his daughter.

 The subsequent great harvest is actually related to the other party!

 If it were any other standard politician, he might be thinking about how to win over him and how to use his identity.

However, Luke is a rather emotional person, so he still prefers the previous way of communication.

Wang Yi certainly doesn't mind this. He admires this guy quite a lot and wants to see him embark on a legendary journey to enrich his database.

“The Temple of the Mother Goddess? The one who came down from the Divine Court or the branch temple here?”

Wang Yi raised his eyebrows and said a little playfully.

Having been in this world for so long, of course Wang Yi also knows about the two major temples.

  What is certain is that both the Temple of the Moon Goddess and the Temple of the Mother Goddess each have at least one semi-sacred person.

 For a period of time after the two gods left, they still maintained sufficient power until the rise of Leo's Floating City.

There is an obvious relationship between the strength and weakness of the two gods. The Moon God Temple itself will admit that the status of the Mother Goddess is more noble, and the Mother Goddess has many more followers.

On the East Plain, except for the Kingdom of Yidai, the other three countries mainly believe in the Mother Goddess.

However, if the Mother Goddess chooses fraternity, then the Moon God's ability to tear off a piece of faith is due to 'specialization'.

 For example, some racial talents of demi-humans and vampires who have been favored by gods.

 Two-thirds of the citizens of the Yidai Kingdom, including the royal family, believe in the moon god.

 So King Yidai also received two blessings from the Moon God Temple.

 Because of this, the number of fanatical believers of the Moon God may be more than that of the Mother Goddess, similar to the case of the "Moonlight Brotherhood".

 While the two gods were still alive, and even during the period just after they left, the majesty of the temple was irreplaceable, and even the change of kings in the empire required the approval of the temple.

But now, the status of the temple has been greatly reduced, but some simple arbitration and judgment are usually carried out.

 Luke said several times before that it would be handed over to the temple for review. This is the operation process.

The Principality of Nott is also dominated by Mother Goddess believers, and there is also a corresponding church in Xishan City.

 The savages claimed to have obtained the favor of the gods, and they also had some corresponding characteristics, so it was natural that they would attract the attention of the temple.

It's only a matter of time before you come to your door!

 At present, the only thing in the Sophie world that may bring real trouble to Wang Yi is the possible return of the two gods.

So he was quite concerned about this, and wanted to know whether it was the divine court or a branch hall here.

“It’s the local Father Anderson.”

Luke paused for a moment before speaking, and then continued:

"But I guess I got the order from their divine court. After I occupied Xishan City, I went to the church to report and stated the cause and effect of the matter. There was no response from the Temple of the Mother Goddess, and they even responded to the fact that I was assassinated. I expressed my regret.”

 Hearing this, Wang Yi also nodded to express his understanding.

No one paid much attention to the fact that Xishan City was captured. Now that he suddenly came to visit him, it was obviously not likely to be the idea of ​​the local Father Anderson.

Luke reminded that Father Anderson is a veteran professional priest. In addition to some spells, he can also use some divine spells with the help of the power of gods.

Wang Yiyou has visited the temple in Dunnuo City, and he is also clear about the principles of priests using divine magic.

 Although the two gods have left, they still left behind a cyclical system of belief.

 It is somewhat similar to the Hall of Valor created by Wang Yi. It sifts through the messy beliefs and extracts them, allowing the clergy to feed back and consume them in the form of divine magic.

And divine magic is also obtained through prayer in advance. Every time it is used up, you have to pray again to draw it out of the pool of faith and add a purifying filter...

 Chapter 912 Potential Crisis

 “Master Yi is in your honor.”

Father Anderson is a middle-aged man who looks very gentle. His brown hair is carefully styled, and he has a compassionate look on his face.

However, Wang Yi can feel that he is not young, and may be over a hundred years old.

"Father Anderson came here on his own initiative. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

 Wang Yi behaved very casually.

 At first, mages are just shallow believers at most, and they may have a lot of rude thoughts about gods, so Wang Yi's casual behavior is not surprising.

 The status of a great mage is indeed not comparable to that of a priest.

Even though he has a special status with the Mother Goddess Temple behind him, Luke had to come to see him as soon as possible after he conquered this place to appease the people.

"The situation is like this. Recently we have also heard that the savages are a race that has been favored by the gods. Some time ago, miracles also appeared in the divine court, but no specific divine prophecies were handed down. So we also want to know about the favor of the savages. Who is your Majesty?"

Anderson is also straightforward.

In the absence of a personal oracle from the gods, they could only discuss some solutions on their own, and then notify the local people here to inquire.

 “The savages call him the ancestral god.”

Although Wang Yi is not afraid of trouble, he obviously does not make himself uncomfortable either. He just deals with it vaguely.

 “A miracle occurred in the Divine Court not long ago?”

Not only did Wang Yi perfunctoryly answer the question, he also asked questions with great interest.

 Is it the time when you tore the void apart?

 I don’t know if those two people have noticed anything.

This world also has teleportation arrays, which are said to be arranged by the gods themselves.

 Theoretically their anchor here is very deep.

No matter how far you have traveled, if you have digested the side effects of the poison of faith, you will be able to return quickly through the abyss.

 It’s just that the gods themselves may not like this method and are worried about the pollution of the abyss.

“It is indeed a miracle, and it is found in both major temples.”

This is indeed news that does not need to be concealed, and even spreading it to a certain extent can maintain the prestige of the temple.

 After all, it is said that the oracle has not been issued for a long time.

It seemed that the priest only came to confirm the matter. After not getting the specific information he wanted, he left decisively and readily.

“Master Yi, although the temple is now much weaker, its influence cannot be underestimated.”

Luke carefully reminded Wang Yi, worried that he would rush into the temple due to his youth and arrogance.

“Don’t worry, I know it in my heart, and I still respect the two gods.”

 …

 On the other side, Anderson also returned to the church.

He didn't pay much attention to this experience. Currently, the two major temples are actually relatively low-key.

Moreover, as an insider and the person in charge of Xishan City, which is not a small city, he knows even more information.

　　When Leo Floating City was born, the top management actually made some moves.

 The saints have personally tested them.

However, the legendary mage has too many abilities and methods. When they cooperate with each other and have a mage tower, the saint does not have any very good methods.

 At the time of the initial test, there were only four legendary mages. Now there are as many as seven, and the eighth one is likely to appear soon.

With them sitting in Leo's Floating City and relying on the Floating City and the Mage Tower, now the temples have to stay away from the edge.

Under this current situation, a great mage who has already shown his cards will naturally also have the opponent's cards, and he cannot be matched by a priest.

 So he just needs to send back the news he got...

 …

 Morning Empire, the Divine Court of the Earth Mother.

 The Temple of the Earth Mother God covers an extremely large area and can be directly regarded as a city.

 And among them, there is a simple wooden house on the bank of a lake surrounded by birds and flowers.

The wooden house was decorated like a small church. There was a handsome young figure who had been praying devoutly in front of the statue of the Mother Goddess.

Just at this moment, a sound of footsteps came from behind. A red-robed bishop on the forest path came to the door of the wooden house and said respectfully to the seemingly handsome young figure inside.

“Lord Saint, we are currently unable to determine which one the savages are favored by. They call them the ancestral gods. However, judging from our prediction tests, the savages have indeed received a strong favor from the gods.”

If someone saw the scene here, I'm afraid they would be extremely shocked.

 Each of the red-robed bishops of Mother Earth is a legend!

But now a legendary red-robed bishop behaved so respectfully, and the identity of the figure in the cabin was naturally revealed.

Demi god!

 After hearing the words of the red-robed bishop, the saint didn't say anything else. Instead, he waited until a stage of his prayers was over before he slowly stood up and turned around.

 The moment the opponent turned around, the legendary red-robed bishop also felt a burst of great pressure.

Just facing him can give him such a sense of oppression. The strength of those legendary mages who were able to rely on the mage tower to confront the saint head-on was so amazing!

 I didn’t expect the gap between being both legends to be so big…

 “Ancestral God…, this may not be a very beautiful title.”

The voice of the seemingly young saint seemed a little vicissitudes of life, and after saying these words, there was a trace of worry on his face.

 After reaching their status, they naturally know that there are more than just their own gods in the world.

Unlike the Moon God, our own gods are more philanthropic and will not be so fond of a new race.

 So there is a high probability that it is not the dependent family of the Mother Goddess. The best case scenario is that the Moon God is a new substitute for the vampire family.

Given the character of the Moon God, it is possible to have such a strong divine grace.

 As the most senior priest, he is actually very clear about some of the limitations and characteristics of gods.

 Both gods left because of the poison of faith.

Even if the Moon God took some special measures to split his godhead into two and inherit different beliefs with two different personalities, he wouldn't come back so boringly and create a race of gods, right?

Isn’t the Moonlight Brotherhood undergoing faith correction? Is the Moonlight Brotherhood alone not enough?

 When one's status and strength reach a certain level, many secrets are considered public information.

 This is what the Moonlight Brotherhood, which represents the other side of the Moon God, does.

And since he thinks that this is the best ending for the Moon God's Familia, it means that there are worse possibilities...

 After the two gods have been away for so long, it is really easy for people to imagine that a race that has received such a favor from the gods suddenly appears.

However, whether it is the original Moon God's back-up plan, the birth of a new god, or even the invasion of foreign gods.

 At this time, the reality has been laid before them, and the choices they can actually make now are limited.

“The protection of the world’s will is still so strong, even in the worst case scenario, there is no need to worry too much for the time being.”

 The saint first comforted the man in red robe, and then said

"But we still haven't found the corresponding symbol for the secret metaphor twenty years ago. Could it be that the Mother Goddess had a premonition of the birth of the savage? Or, the person behind the savage may be Twenty Traces were revealed years ago..."

This saint, who was obviously handsome and young, but also had a mixed feeling of being old, could not help but fall into thinking at this time.

The outside world has always rumored that the most recent oracle was a hundred years ago, but in fact, there was an undisclosed oracle twenty years ago.

 The crisis from the abyss is approaching, let them look for the anomalies in the world of Sephy!

In the past twenty years, they have been quietly searching for various abnormal intelligence, but in fact they have never found any effective information.

  There is no trace on this side of the abyss, and it has been a long time since the last plane war.

 Could it be that this oracle is confirmed by this group of savages...

Update completed~
