Chapter 575: The Cursed Elect (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription)
But if Soram really didn't want to die, Fizteler didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Fitzteler knows a little more than anyone else, and Scarlett is not as simple as it seems! Don't look at the fact that she has never been involved in those ups and downs, but her background, even Feztimeler, has to be treated carefully, otherwise how could Fetztierer be so polite to her?
In fact, not to mention Fitztier, even the Shadow Church has to be careful in front of Scarlett!
There is no other reason than because she is the chosen one of the Goddess of Doom, Ben Saba!
Among the gods, there are two goddesses to pay attention to, the first is the goddess of luck and the second is the goddess of bad luck. You can distrust them, but don't offend them!
In the continent of Faerun, when any newborn is naming and baptism, a ceremony is held, and in this ceremony, prayers are often held according to the beliefs of the parents, and there are two goddesses at the same time, regardless of the beliefs of the parents, prayers and sacrifices must be performed.
That's the Destiny Twins, Lady Luck and Goddess of Doom. These two goddesses are also the goddesses who are the most muttered in the mouths of ordinary people.
For example, if a person has good luck, he will say that the goddess of luck is blessed. When a person is unlucky, he will also ask the goddess of bad luck Bunsaba for forgiveness.
As a result, these two goddesses have an extraordinary foundation of faith, and they do not need to specialize in developing church priests to preach, because whether or not there is a priest to expand the faith, they are one of the two gods that mortals are most familiar with and remember, and they are naturally loved and feared by all.
(This is also a kind of faith, although it is not even pan-faith, and the power of faith that can be provided is very small, but it can't stand the fact that almost all people in the whole continent are like this, the quality is insufficient, and the quantity is to make up for it)
As a result, these two goddesses did not have a fixed temple and church at all, and even had very few priests. It is also because they have very few priests, and no one dares to underestimate the priests of these two gods. Because these two goddesses are notoriously difficult to deal with, and they are also very protective of their shortcomings.
They don't need pastors, but the people who can be their pastors are all the ones they pay special attention to and even prefer.
Therefore, anyone who sees their priest had better show corresponding awe, or else wait for the revenge of the two goddesses, which, by the way, although the sisters are mortal enemies of each other, have one thing in common, that is, they are petty and vindictive, and moody.
As long as you are targeted by these two goddesses, you don't know how to die!
Because they're the twins of destiny! They can control their ethereal fate!
This may be an exaggeration, but they can manipulate both good luck and bad luck.
If you have offended these two goddesses, congratulations on winning the jackpot. For example, if you are hated by the goddess of luck, Tamorah, then good luck will leave you, and your enemies may be blessed by the goddess of luck, think of that scene.
However, it is worse than offending Taimora and offending the goddess of bad luck Bunsaba, you will receive a series of bad luck blessings, such as being bitten by a dog when you go out, or drinking water and stuffing your teeth, falling for no reason, suddenly distracted during a fight, being besieged by enemies when you go out, etc., all kinds of bad luck will befall you.
If you offend Tymorra, you will not lose your life, and no matter how you say that Tymora is also a good goddess, her punishment is more of a prank. It's just going to make people disgraced. Can you offend Ben Saba's words......
That's going to cost you your life! Even if it is not good, it will affect a large number of people, such as plagues, disasters and the like.
And this extremely cautious goddess rarely chooses to forgive! She is synonymous with extreme stinginess!
Even among the gods, these two gods are very special, although they are only medium gods, no god dares to offend them! For example, the prince of lies, Ciric, is crazy enough, and he still doesn't dare to provoke them.
There are also evil gods such as Queen Rose, Night Lady Shar, and so on, who can intimidate a group of people with their fame alone, and they have to be obedient in front of them.
And Scarlett, as the elect of Ben Saba, is naturally like this, she is willing to give in to the shadow thief, and the Shadow Church doesn't even dare to let out a fart, and she has to be polite to her. No way, the backstage is too hard.
Fortunately, although Scarlett is a god's chosen person, her personality is very honest, she just wants to live her own life, and she never uses the power given to her by the goddess of doom, so she is an ordinary woman quietly.
To outsiders, Scarlett is a well-being loiter, and no one knows that she is a voter of Bensaba.
"How are you going to talk to Solam?" Fitzteler put aside his distractions and asked with a fixed concentration. Not many people know Scarlett's true identity, and Fitzteler has no interest in revealing her identity, after all, no one knows what Bensaba thinks. So he said with the same attitude as usual.
"Talking to him, of course!" Scarlett was pleased with Fitztierer's attitude. To be honest, although she is the voter of Ben Saba, she does not have a good impression of this goddess in her heart.
Yes, Scarlett, as a voter of Ben Saba, does not like Ben Saba!
If it had been possible, Scarlett wouldn't want to be this unfortunate voter at all! She didn't want to at all!
The fact that she became a voter of Bunsaba also began when she was born, and her mother was a devotee of Tamoura! It was nothing, but the bad thing was that she had an accident on the day of her baptism.
Her mother was a devotee of Tamora, so she was not very interested in Bunsaba, so she was not very sad about Bunsaba's ritual, which caused the sacrifice that was originally given to Bunsaba to be overturned in an accident!
And somehow, this baptism, which was not surprising, was actually watched by Ben Saba, so in order to punish this careless mother, Ben Saba chose Scarlett, who was still a baby, to become the elector......
Perhaps because her mother was a devout member of Tamour, in order to punish her, Bensaba made her daughter her chosen and her own daughter her chosen one, a punishment that left the careless mother at a loss......
Her mother prayed to Tymorrah to change the outcome, but Tamoura could do nothing.
If that's all there is to it, it's not a big deal to be a voter, but the wayward Ben Saba also puts another vicious curse on Scarlett, she will never get true love, and anyone who has a "relationship" with her will not die well!
To put a curse on one's own elect is something that only Bensaba, a chaotic and wayward goddess, can do. Scarlett hated the curse to death, so she didn't believe in Bensaba, didn't use the power that Bensaba gave her, and never even spread Bensaba's name.
She just wanted Bensaba to disappear from her life! Never again! She even asked Bensaba to take back her identity as a voter and make herself an ordinary person.
But apparently this is an extravagant hope, and if Ben Saba could forgive people so easily, she would not be Ben Saba!
"Talking about business? Will he agree? Fitzteler frowned and thought that Scarlett's idea was really not good, and the conflict between them was caused by "business".
"Why not? I'm doing business with sincerity this time, and I'm not planning to do anything. And I don't just do business honestly, I even give him benefits! ”
Scarlett hated Bensaba very much because she had been ruined by Ben Saba all her life, and she was not willing to use Ben Saba's power for her own benefit, which was the only way she could maintain her dignity.
She wants to live on her own, so she manages everything she does very carefully.
And so it is, she watches a little more than the others. Solam: They were originally here to do business, in this case, who is the business to do or not? As long as you become a partner, won't those previous misunderstandings be easy to talk about?
"And give him the benefits?" Some people think that this is a bit cheap, the shadow thief gave up revenge on Solam, it was already very embarrassing, and now he still wants to give benefits to others? Isn't that cheaper?
"Of course!" Scarlett affirmed: "If we don't give them benefits, how can we share the benefits from him?" ”
"Profit sharing benefits?" This made everyone else stunned, and even Fitzteler was a little confused. "What's the benefit?"
"Didn't you notice that Andre had been in contact all this time?"
"Fleet?"
"That's right! And it's an ocean-going fleet! ”
"So what?"
Hearing this, even Feztimeler understood something, except for the fools with muscles in their heads who had not yet reacted, but Fezteler did not care about the stupidity they said.
Instead, he looked at Scarlett and said, "You mean, they have a source of spices?" ”
Scarlett nodded and said, "Isn't that obvious?" If there was no supply, Andre would work so hard? What is the situation now, you all know, how much does it cost to organize a fleet at this time? If there was no abundant supply of spices, would Andre have worked so hard to organize the fleet? ”
If you want to say that after the big storm, that industry is the hottest, it has to be said that it is the shipbuilding industry. Not only did the storm damage the West Coast shipbuilding industry, but many shipyards were not spared.
This has also led to a serious imbalance between supply and demand! Because of the reshuffle of the big storm, many of the original shipping tycoons have fallen one after another, so that the shipping has returned to its original state! Now is the perfect time for many newcomers to enter the maritime industry.
Therefore, the business of the major shipyards is extremely hot, although the storm has caused countless losses, but this is also a great opportunity! Let more people have the opportunity to enter this already extremely competitive industry.
However, due to the fact that many shipyards were destroyed in the storm, there are still very few shipyards that can produce ships. As a result, the price of ships skyrocketed to a very terrifying level.
Now that organizing a fleet of ships is unintentionally costly, many large chambers of commerce now only dare to replenish ships in a limited amount, because it is too expensive, and the danger of long-distance voyages is too great, and no one dares to take such a big risk.
But what about Andrey? He jumped up and down quite a bit, and it seemed that he wanted to organize a large fleet! This is very intriguing, Fizterler thought about it carefully, there is only one reason why Andrei dares to do this, he can get a sufficient supply!
