During the time when the wolf smoke signal is issued and the enthusiastic people come to help, it is better to search the underground carefully. Festan the Blue Dragon assured that there was no one else down there—because it hadn't heard—but Fitch was vigilant and cautiously searched the long passageway.

The passage was long, stretching from the hidden black hedron basement to five or six miles away. Push open the door locked from the inside, and outside is a small wood, with an empty hunter's hut right next door. There was a wagon parked in front of the hut, and from the ruts it was supposed to have come from a forest path not far away, but there were no pack horses in sight, only some old, broken empty boxes in the body. Feige looked at the hut, and judging by the level of rotting food, it hadn't been used in a while.

This room is very ordinary, and nothing can be found, and there are no mana fluctuations. Unable to find any suspicious clues, Feige tries not to touch anything and returns the way he came.

On the way, Xia Ni suddenly asked, "My lord, what will happen if I don't understand your gestures, or if I move slowly?" Will you be killed by that mad priest?"

"There aren't so many ifs. You understand and act quickly, thank you. ”

"No, I mean if. Xia Ni rubbed her hands, looking a little nervous. "If I don't understand or move slowly, will you die? If so, I will always be very scared, and my eyes will always be fixed on you, and I will not dare to leave for a moment. ”

"Oh, I see. Don't worry, of course I've got other plans. It's actually very simple, I just have to go backwards. In that duel, I only had to expose the vital weakness for two seconds to give her a chance to attack, and I didn't promise to let her hit. So, I can back away and dodge without stupidly letting her stab. Feige smiled and said, "Still, please keep your eyes on me, it will give me a sense of satisfaction that I am cared for." Thank you, ladies. ”

"Thank you Shani, I didn't help much. Bennie sighed, shook her head from side to side, and said, "Alas, after following you, it is rare to be able to fight happily. It seems that a lot of things can be solved very simply, such as changing the outfit or saying a couple of words - this feeling is so strange. ”

"Isn't this bad?" Fei Qi was a little confused, was it not strange to go out and fight all day long, and constantly choose to persuade each other with his fists?

"It's not bad, it's just that something is missing. ”

"Violence is a means, not an end. Violence can only solve the problem, not the problem. Feige thought for a moment and said, "You care about my safety, and I care about you too, and I don't want you to face dangerous scenes of violence." Isn't it better to put the enemy in danger? Having said that, I know that you will always find a way to deal with the enemy in the end, so I have the confidence and time to think. These are all mutually reinforcing!"

"You really know. Beni replied with a smile.

When Feige returned to Yan Rui, he didn't speak much, or only spoke in programs and code. In this life, the code has been replaced with runes, and the program has been replaced with spells, and this part of life still retains a lot of similarities. The biggest change actually came from the devil, who gave him the ability to speak.

This ability is very good, it is very convenient to use, and it gives Feige a kind of experience that he has never had. Using this ability, he has a good life in the church as a devil, and has become a comrade-in-arms with the archbishop, and even a life-saving benefactor. He can set verbal traps to lower his opponent's alertness and control their actions for an easy victory.

Feige has never experienced such a feeling of "being at home like a fish in water", and a sense of satisfaction will come to his heart with every "victory". However, after victory, when tension is vented, when excitement and excitement are relieved, this satisfaction also decreases. At this time, the programmer's calmness regains the high ground, and he will examine his actions with the habit of looking for loopholes.

"Isn't it a little too smooth?" Feiqi said to himself, "In any case, the danger factor of the Holy Three Castle is much higher than that of the Ice Peak Fortress, and so far there has been no problem, which is a lucky luck that may not be repeated." Anyway, I've earned enough, so I should take it when I see it!"

So when Feige returned to the Black Crystal Room, he wasn't moved by any other people, and he was alone with the mysterious crystal cluster. Obviously, the crystal crystal cluster is a trouble, involving things at the level of the Creator and the Goddess of Truth and Thunder, and there may be a major conflict behind it, and it is better for him not to get involved as a small priest.

"My lord, aren't you going to take some crystal clusters, that thing is so beautiful!"

"Well, that crystal must be valuable too, but forget it. I'd love to go back to Ice Peak Fortress now, and it's time for the cardinal's affairs to come to an end. If I had taken the crystal, I wouldn't have been able to go. Feige shook his head, "Come with me, let's go back to the surface." ”

When he returned to the ground, a group of guards patrolling nearby had already seen the beacon fire coming to check, and was now talking to Archbishop Mackintosh under the gaze of the blue dragon. Feige didn't want to disturb them, so he went to find the blue dragon.

"Is there any treasure down there?" the blue dragon was originally hunkered up, but when he saw Feiqi, he moved his head over, "Did you find anything?"

"I wasn't sure what it was, but it felt a little dangerous, so I didn't move. Anyway, sooner or later, the Church will have to send experienced and knowledgeable senior priests to check it out, so I won't interfere. ”

"Really, that's a shame, it's another battle with no oil. A dragon of my age, so strong, could have gathered a lot of wealth. Now, I guess I don't have much advantage. Alas......"

It turns out that not only people worry about lack of money, but also dragons. However, Feige looked at the blue dragon, a little unsure if he was really crying poor, or if he was deliberately showing that he was poor, so as not to keep Feige thinking about it.

"Shall I promise not to steal your treasure?"

"Well, we're good friends now. The blue dragon stretched out his claws, grabbed a handful of burning wood from the blazing fire, and stacked it in front of Feiqi: "Come, in order to show friendship, let's roast the fire together." Well, I now find that not only to you, but also to your two female companions, I feel like a family. Come along, shall we?"

When Feige heard this, he winked at Benny and Shanny. Aren't the two of them still looking for who their father is? Although the green dragon and the blue dragon are not very compatible, at least they are both dragons, and maybe there will be news. Feige took the opportunity to sit quietly, holding the cat teaser stick and began to learn Chitana's spells.

Well, that's what peace of mind feels like.

On the same day, around midnight, reinforcements from the Holy Three Castle finally arrived. Among them were not only the Inquisitors of the Sacred Heart, but also the High Priests of the Blessed Body and the Priests of the Rites of the Word. At this time, the victims were all found, temporarily wrapped in canvas for a simple farewell ceremony, and then transported to the clergy cemetery near the Château of the Holy Trinity for burial. Immediately afterward, a thorough search of the estate began, and the priest in charge of the magic also found Feige under the guidance of Mackintosh.

"Pastor Feige, please tell me everything you know, and make sure you don't miss it. And ...... "That priest is about forty years old, and I'm afraid it's the most ambitious state, so he doesn't seem to have a good attitude." "We must speak with facts, not subjective speculation. ”

Feige rolled his eyes, "Well, the truth is that all the information I know is conjectural, and I have neither evidence nor a way to test it, so do you listen or not?"

"You ......" The priest choked up, but could only reply, "Okay, you say, I'll listen." ”

"You'd better take a piece of paper and write it down, because I don't really want to say it a second time. Well...... Xia Ni, please remember a copy of it, and give it to him when the time comes. Feige wasn't polite at all, he just wanted to finish the finishing touches here quickly and head north back to Icepeak Fortress.

Fei Qi succinctly described the course of the battle, including his own guesses about the enemy's abilities and his understanding of the crystal clusters. "I suspect that there is an illusion circle near the pit where the crystal clusters are stored, but I'm not sure which one it is, you must be careful, there is nothing else to report......"

"Can you explain a little bit more about why the Crystal Cluster spell didn't work for you?"

"Is that how you recorded it?" Feige craned his neck, looked at the piece of paper in his hand, and immediately exclaimed, "Archbishop, this guy has very poor shorthand skills, and he has written it all wrong. It's better to use Xia Ni's record!"

Mackintosh walked over and looked at it twice, and shook his head slightly: "Okay, just give me Shanny's share." Isn't that nonsense to say you're not affected by crystal clusters? I've seen with my own eyes that you'll get hit too, but you'll just recover. ”

"That's what I thought, too. Feige breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said to Mackintosh, "Archbishop, is the handover here complete, right? If it's fast enough, maybe it can catch up with the tail of the funeral of the old man Kiplin. ”

"It would be more beneficial for you to stay here and dig the crystal clusters together, after all, there will be more credit. ”

"I still want to go back to Icepeak Fortress, there are enough experts here, and I don't need it. Feiqi rubbed his hands together and said in a particularly sincere tone: "Moreover, I don't need credit now, as long as I don't make mistakes, I will wait for Grand Duke Aria to pardon me." ”

"I don't mean to say that your credit is useless, you ...... after all," Mackintosh hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's good that you chose that." Back to the Ice Peak Fortress first, I look forward to your greater role in Minas Ihir. ”

After spending almost half a year outside, Feige found that he missed his little room in the Ice Peak Fortress. He half-robbed and half-deceived the knights who had come to reinforce him to "ask" for three fine horses, exchanged them with the three ordinary horses that Xia Ni had bought from the chariot and horse station, and then let the paladins perform the magic of increasing endurance - so that the speed of their return journey was greatly increased.

The sun is shining, the warm wind is whistling in the ears, the road recedes rapidly, and the lofty mountains of the Sunset Mountains become taller, clearer, and more intimate. They galloped all the way, basically did not stop to rest, let alone prepare to spend the night outside, and all actions were prioritized to rush back to the Ice Peak Fortress as soon as possible.

They had to pass longitudinally through most of the model collars, where the scenery was basically the same, only slightly different after entering Minas Ihir. Fitch is pleased to see that the road is being repaired, and that new roads of rubble and rammed earth are being extended outwards from the entrances of the villages, and although they have not been repaired far yet, they are believed that if they are maintained, they will always be connected to each other and radiate throughout Minas Ihir.

Feige also saw the large convoy. The cart looked a little rudimentary, and the mules used were a little listless, as did the drivers, who hung their heads and smoked slowly with long pipes in their mouths.

"Hello, let me ask, where are you going, what is in the car, why is it tightly covered with canvas?"

"Oh, it's the Goddess Priest, are you going to Ice Peak Fortress?" asked the coachman.

"I'm Feiqi from Ice Peak Fortress, have you heard of it?"

"Nope. All I know is Giles from Icepeak Fortress, who helped us build the watermill last year. The coachman looked Feige up and down, undisguised his vigilance: "It seems that you don't look like an elf, but even if you can't help it, who called the current lord a female elf? These underground crops are produced in large quantities, but they cannot be eaten! The devil's things are only liked by the elves! Look, there are a lot of truckloads and carts, and they have to be transported over the trouble of transporting them!"

I didn't expect Didlet to carry the blame for herself like this. "It turned out to be potatoes, and it looks like these were all shipped to Ice Peak Fortress. How much can you harvest, have you dug up everything in the field?"

"It's a lot, this thing grows faster than a mouse, and it can come out in a bunch at once. The fields must be dug up, and these devil's curses remain in the soil, and if it affects the planting that follows, my year will be in vain. The coachman complained and did not vomit. He complained to Feige for a long time, but it also made Feige understand what had happened here after he had been away for more than half a year.

Some elves moved in and were in charge of daily patrols as soldiers of the territory, appearing in the sight of the villagers from time to time. These elves are very elite, and they have already exterminated two groups of kobold robbers led by the mountain giants, killing nearly 100 wild wolves, greatly improving the security of the territory. However, the elves did not build castles, but only planted trees, built roads, and let the villagers plant potatoes in large quantities, which made some people panic. Although kobolds and wild wolves are threatening, the village can handle it on its own, and it is not a big problem to spend money on monster hunters. But a lord who doesn't have a fortified castle means that he can't shelter his villagers in the event of a greater threat, which can lead to the tragedy of a broken family.

The quarries of Collingwood Town are one of the few places that everyone is happy with – except perhaps the elves who don't like dust. The price of stone outside is abnormally high, and the income from working in a stone factory is good. In addition, potatoes don't require much complicated management – and on the other hand, the villagers don't want to manage them too much – so many people go to work in the stone factories and earn more than in previous years. Moreover, the price of stone in the territory has actually fallen, and it is much cheaper to build roads, bridges, and houses. Some villagers buy low and then secretly resell it, adding some "special income", at least so that there are fewer complaints about growing potatoes.

"Although there is a lot of money, people are very tired this year. Driving stones, planting land, and building roads, they were not idle at all. I took some money, but these devil potatoes are worrying. These cannot be eaten directly, and need to be purified one by one by the pastor. Alas, with that kind of kung fu, it's okay to treat more diseases. ”

"How are these potatoes harvested?" Fitch asked.

"You are not allowed to keep this potato, you must pay as much as you want. Originally, I had to pay 80% of the land I planted, and this 80% was potatoes, and the remaining 20% was eaten by myself. It's the same as in previous years, but in the past, I knew that the lord had food there, and in case of disaster, I would share some of it. But this year, there are only potatoes that can't be eaten, and no fort has been built, so it's inevitable that I will panic......"

Fei Qi gradually understood that the two biggest problems in the territory were food and security, and the food problem was still a security problem in the final analysis. The only reason why people form societies and organizations is because individuals cannot provide security, only societies and organizations can do it.

Elite elven soldiers and increased income are pluses, building roads and bridges are not obvious for the time being, potatoes and no castle are minus. Still, Feige is confident that the minus will turn into a plus, or that kind of super plus.

The closer you get to the Ice Peak Fortress, the more trucks are carrying potatoes on the road. The mules and pack horses that had been exchanged for stones from the saddle collar began to exert their power, and Minas Ihir was more capable of transporting than ever before. Of course, this is mainly due to the smuggling of stones, and if you want to transport stones, how can you do without a car?

The carts arrived at Collingwood, unloaded at the stockyard, got a tax clearance certificate for the first half of the year, and then dropped by to buy some cheap stones from the quarry. Tax clearance certificates are now used as proof of identity, and only with this can you buy bargains. Everyone has a limit, but the limit is simply not used up - Eddie made some adaptations in the execution of Feige's plan, deliberately leaving this "loophole" to make people feel that there is a cheap to be made, and the natural force of action will come up.

"Don't underestimate it!" Eddie has this ability, which makes Feige feel like he has made a fortune. He glanced at the potato dumping field, only saw the two elven officials, not Eddie, so he continued on his way to the Ice Peak Fortress.

Along the mountain road, you can see a column of white smoke rising from the fortress in the distance. It was a pillar of smoke at the funeral, which meant that the body returned to dust and the soul ascended to heaven. He urged the horses and promised to let them eat and drink well and rest when they reached the fortress. Finally, when he walked through the unguarded gate to the lookout platform on the side of the castle, he had just arrived in time for the final stage of the funeral: the final blessing.

Everyone was present at Icecrest Fortress, including Kyle, Giles, Silkina, Mohm, Tron, Wumama, Ramsden, Eddie, and Friends, as well as Geud and Anne. Since he had received a raven letter from Feige, everyone knew that Old Man Kiplin had arrived at the Goddess Divine Kingdom as a saint, which was a supreme honor and a lifelong pursuit of the old man. Therefore, everyone's sadness is not so heavy, but more for the comfort that the old man can walk peacefully and satisfied.

Of course, everyone would expect him to live more.

"Feige, we think you're going to find a way to get back. Hurry up, it's not bad to rest for a while. Come over and say a few words and say a final goodbye to the old man. Calet pointed to the urn in the small crypt and beckoned to Feige.

"Uh...... I said it when I was in the kingdom of God. Okay, okay, that's the rule, I know. Kylie still had a very serious look, and any non-compliance would be met with a glaring glance. Strange to say, when he stares at him, everyone will feel muscle soreness, which may have something to do with his usual corporal punishment training, and Feige's muscles already have a memory.

"Master Kiplin, you are a good person, I wish I had known you earlier, and my life would have been happier. Feige looked at the urn, his mind was a little confused, he had forgotten all the rituals and speeches of the priests at the funeral in the canon, and he just wanted to say something happy. "You are in the kingdom of God, you must eat and drink well, and when you meet a lady you like, you have to pursue it, and angels can too, don't let go. Then, don't rush to merge with the Goddess Divine Kingdom, at least don't do that until you've had enough. It usually takes 10,000 or 20,000 years for the soul to completely lose its vitality, and you still have a lot of time......"

Kylie had clenched his fists, and he really wanted to get a touch on Feige's brain. Sisina shook her head, and before Cale could get angry, she said, "Feige, you're a priest, perform the blessing ritual and start covering the earth." ”

"Oh, yes. Feige patted his head. He took a deep breath, raised the emblem in his left hand, and recited the eulogy of the goddess, performing the simplest blessing of the priest's divine art. Then, feeling that it was not solemn enough, he used the Dharma Seal to cast divine grace and legal weapons on the urn, then cast a shield and light dance with magic spells, and then grabbed a handful of dirt from a nearby mound and sprinkled it into the pit where the urn was kept.

Everyone stepped forward in turn, each with a handful, which basically covered most of the pit. The cemetery of the Ice Peak Fortress is not large, so it can only be buried with ashes, and then a tombstone is placed on it. Old Man Kipling's tombstone is simple, with his full name on it, including his birth name before becoming a priest, and the subsequent position is "Icepeak Fortress Presiding Priest". The epitaph reads: "Believe in the Goddess, who looks at you and me." ”

"Why didn't you write about the saints?" asked Feige.

"Although I have received your letter, the Church has not written about it, so I cannot officially give him the title of saint. Tron explained.

"Don't wait, I'll come. Feige reached out and stroked the tombstone, and a line of glowing magic runes appeared on the tombstone, "There is a saint buried here", a very simple sentence. "First use a temporary word, and after the burial, I will use a chisel to carve a permanent one. ”

It's not in order, but no one will object. Together, everyone straightened the tombstone in the shape of a thunder cross, stood firmly on the ground, and then gently touched it.

So the old man Kiplin was buried.
