If you want to live a life free from suffering, you have to be a god or a dead body. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThink about the misfortunes of others, and you will be able to face life calmly.

- Menander (Greek New Comedy Poet)

After this sacrifice was over, Bai Feng saw the High Priest of Binglan take back her scepter, and walked from the corner of the main hall to the High Priest of Binglan, but this time, Bai Feng felt a completely different feeling from the High Priest of Binglan from the previous two sacrifices.

After sacrificing the four gods for the first time, Bai Feng could clearly feel an indescribable feeling from the high priest of Binglan, as if he had eaten a creamy ice cream on a hot summer, which made people involuntarily feel a sense of satisfaction and comfort.

It was that time, the life period of the High Priest of Binglan increased by a full seventy years, not long ago, after the second sacrifice of the four gods, Bai Feng felt that feeling from the High Priest of Binglan again, but compared to the first time, the second time it was a little worse.

Because in the second time, the life period of the High Priest Binglan had only increased by thirty years, but this time, Bai Feng did not feel any such feelings from the High Priest of Binglan after the sacrifice was over, which was obviously unreasonable.

"Bing Lan, didn't you use the eight god statues to increase your life limit this time?" Bai Feng, who suddenly thought of something, stared at the high priest Bing Lan with an extremely serious look, and asked her word by word.

"Bai Feng, you and I both understand what the crisis that Rome City needs to deal with now, do you really think that I will selfishly use these eight gods to increase my own life period at such a time?"

"Alas, but we clearly said it before!" In the face of the firmness of the High Priest Binglan, Bai Feng finally had to sigh helplessly, and then muttered a little abruptly.

Seeing Bai Feng's loveless appearance, High Priest Binglan also smiled and reached out and patted Bai Feng's arm, and then joked:

"Don't think I'm selfless dedication, this sacrifice I gave up the life period I lent you temporarily, and when you find more and better artifacts in the future, I will even take it back with interest, and then you can't regret it!"

With a soft voice, a sly smile and humorous words, Bai Feng had to admit that he was becoming more and more attracted to the High Priest of Binglan, and after seeing the High Priest of Binglan blushing again, Bai Feng returned to the topic:

"Bing Lan, even if you don't increase your life period this time, the benefits of sacrificing these eight gods shouldn't be very much, you can help me build the blacksmith shop that is being built directly, and if the remaining power of faith is enough, build a town barracks." ”

After nodding slightly, the high priest of Binglan raised the scepter in his hand and began to change the city of Rome with the power of faith, when the milky white pillar of light shot out of the scepter, the blacksmith shop under construction was also directly built, and the town barracks that followed were also built, the only change was that the treasury of the city of Rome had dropped to 3145 gold.

"The power of faith obtained from this sacrifice is limited, and after these two buildings are built, there is not much faith power left, and it can only be shortened by one month at most. After retracting the scepter, High Priest Binglan's face also had a hint of paleness, and she forcibly endured her physical discomfort and explained to Bai Feng.

"Binglan, I'm here today, and with the extra power of faith, you can add five hundred people to the city of Rome tomorrow, and I'll leave right away, so you can rest well." ”

Although the High Priest of Bing Lan tried his best to hide her discomfort, the delicate body that trembled slightly still betrayed her, and Bai Feng could also detect her weakness from the tone of the High Priest Bing Lan's voice;

Therefore, Bai Feng decisively chose to end everything today, and let Bing Lan have a good rest in the temple, and the high priest of Bing Lan, who was getting more and more familiar with Bai Feng, did not refuse Bai Feng's kindness, and after nodding slightly, she left the main hall and went back to the backyard first.

After the high priest of Binglan left the main hall, Bai Feng also hurriedly left the temple of Apollo and returned to the governor's palace, and with the construction of the blacksmith shop and the town barracks, the city of Rome could finally begin real preparations for war before the crisis officially broke out!

When Bai Feng returned to the Governor's Palace, he found 500 new bows, 50,000 arrows, 500 short swords, 500 sets of battle armor, 500 square shields, 2,000 spears, and 2,000 small round shields in the warehouse on the left side of the Governor's Palace.

Five hundred bows and arrows can create a 500-strong archer army for the city of Rome, while 500 short swords and 500 sets of armor and 500 square shields can create a 500-strong elite warrior army for the city of Rome, and finally 2,000 spears and 2,000 small round shields can create a 2,000-strong pikemen army for the city of Rome.

The weapons and equipment brought by the blacksmith shop alone are enough for the city of Rome to form a well-armed mercenary force of 3,000 people with barbarian warriors as the core, and every month after that, the output of the blacksmith shop can also bring the same sophisticated weapons and equipment for 3,000 people to Rome City, which will play a vital role in improving the combat effectiveness of Rome's mercenaries!

The construction of the town barracks is the official opening of the regular army construction system of the city of Rome, after the existence of the town barracks, Bai Feng can recruit young troops on a large scale to serve as the main army of the city of Rome, which is the beginning of the formation of the system army of the city of Rome.

The blacksmith shop and town barracks that were supposed to be built in two months were built ahead of schedule, and while Bai Feng was preparing for a large-scale recruitment of young soldiers, he also had to discuss with Yue'er how to start the construction of the next buildings in order.

The eight idols that Licinius obtained from the two conquered tribes this time gave a powerful impetus to the development of the city of Rome, and soon Licinius and Gatus would gradually attack the other three tribes, and then the city of Rome would be able to obtain a certain number of idols.

In order to better promote the development of the city of Rome, Bai Feng still needs to discuss with Yue'er about how to build other buildings, after all, Yue'er is a real expert in this area, and the construction of the blacksmith shop is the most typical example.

If it weren't for Yue'er's reminder, Bai Feng would not have been able to build a blacksmith shop first, and then there would be so many weapons and equipment in the warehouse, and how could Rome City create a well-armed mercenary force before the enemy attacked?
