Maybe it was because Sauron had agreed to their request. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The goddesses all seemed to be in a good mood, Sauron was a guest from afar after all, and the goddess of agriculture decided to hold a banquet to entertain him after thinking about it for a while. It is very easy for the gods to hold a banquet, there is no need to trouble those mortals at all, as the goddess of agriculture clapped her hands gently, a group of lovely flower essences flew out of the lush woods in front of her, and they were only the size of a palm like pocket fairies, and these flower essences brought honey and fruits. The goddess of the river picked up the conch and blew it towards the river, and more than a dozen beautiful water spirits came out, carrying plates made of beautiful shells, which contained all kinds of aquatic products. The goddess of spring water **** lightly touched the snow-white toe on the ground, and immediately it was a clear and sweet spring water use, which automatically made a small fountain, and appeared colorful brilliance under the sunlight. The Goddess of Sprouts beckons a flock of gorgeous birds, which play a piece of music with a variety of chirps.

Sauron was a little dumbfounded.

In fact, although he was the master of Modo City, and he was a god with medium divine power, he had never experienced god-level enjoyment a few times.

Many princes and nobles lived much more luxuriously than him, and as for the use of divine power to hold banquets, he had never studied a similar spell. And looking at the extremely skillful movements of several goddesses, it seems that everything is so natural, and it is obvious that this is not the first time that these goddesses have cast similar spells.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with the rumors, and the gods of this world are really good at enjoying life.

It is said that some gods have also developed the 'banquet technique', which can automatically conjure a large amount of wine, food, chairs, and even a garden square out of thin air by casting a spell of six or seven rings. Sauron felt that if he had time, he should also learn the 'Extradimensional Mansion Technique'.

………………

A banquet didn't delay Sauron for long.

The goddess of agriculture is a powerful activist, and in the afternoon the goddess of agriculture delivered an oracle to the church, and then many priests and druids throughout the southern principalities were summoned. The goddess of agriculture has a large number of priests and agricultural druids who are skilled in cultivating plants and are experienced gardeners and farmers. These people originally served many nobles and merchants, and some of them were themselves lords of the manor, and under the oracle of the goddess of agriculture, many priests and druids who had been advisors to the nobles came to the harvest city, and then began to travel to the Windspear Hills under the arrangement of the church.

Devout believers do not disobey oracles, so hundreds of druids and priests left on that day alone.

And at this time, the nobles of the southern principalities quickly got the news, and they were a little unable to sit still when they heard the news. Their harvest depended entirely on the help of these priests, and now that many of them had left the estate, they were a little worried about whether the goddess of agriculture was dissatisfied with them. So they planned to pay a certain price to keep the priests and druids, but they were soon rejected, because the covenant of the gods was not a joke, and since the goddess of agriculture had agreed to Sauron's request, it was useless for these people to pay a greater price.

Wind Spear Hill, Maple City.

The light of a portal emerges.

The first to come out was a mature and elegant white-robed priest with the insignia of the goddess of agriculture on her chest, an archbishop of legendary rank.

In charge of receiving her was Adele-Isabella, and behind her was another aristocratic woman with a somewhat similar face, Adele nodded slightly to the archbishop in front of her, and said in a friendly manner: "My lord has arranged everything. Please come with me, we have arranged a temporary lodging for you at the Lord's Mansion. ”

"The temple is under construction, and it will be completed in about a week."

The first batch of priests consisted of twelve, all of whom were high-ranking priests, led by an archbishop. Then there are the three other separate druids, and the priests of the goddess of agriculture have many part-time druids, all of whom are experts at manipulating plants.

The archbishop smiled and nodded, "No hurry. Can you show us around? ”

Adele Isabella smiled and said, "There is no problem. Let's go to the temple area first. ”

The archbishop's purpose is very simple, she needs to see the sincerity of Modo City, as well as the strength of Modo City, although the goddess agreed to the cooperation of the shadow master, but the specific progress of the trial, how many priests need to be sent, we have to see the actual situation. A church has its own rules for functioning, and unless the value here is very impressive, she is not advocating the mass transfer of priests from the southern principalities to the Wind Spear Hills.

Temple area.

As a city that is not too big, there are only a few temples in the temple area of Maple City, and they are all renovated. The most obvious one is the temple of the Lord of Shadows, then the temple of his god whipping the maiden, then the temple of the goddess of wealth, the other temples are not seen, and the temple of the goddess of agriculture is currently under construction. In charge of the temple's construction were a group of half-elves, including witches, who were responsible for controlling more than twenty clay golems, most of the manual labor they did. The main body of the temple is made of pure white marble, and only a building frame has been completed, and there are still many vacant lots in the vicinity that have not been renovated.

"The temple covers an area of 5,000 square meters, and a third of it is currently in use."

Adele smiled and introduced to the group of priests behind her, "We are only responsible for the framework of the main body, and you still need to complete the specific layout and transformation of the temple. After all, the characteristics of each temple are different. ”

The archbishop looked at everything in front of him in astonishment.

Just by looking at it, she knew that this temple was expensive, and the marbles alone cost a lot, and such a temple would require at least one priest or more than a bishop to preside over such a temple even in the southern principalities.

After looking at it for a moment, she frowned.

She felt that she had to gather men quickly, because the temple built by these half-elves was completely inconsistent with the beauty of the goddess of agriculture, and there was no such harmony between nature and man, she said a few words to a druid behind her, and then said to Adele, "Since this is a temple that serves my lord, it is best for us to send someone to help." ”

"This is Master Kaali, he knows how to decorate this temple, you have built a lot, but there are some places that are not to my lord's liking."

The city of Modo is characterized by its grandeur.

Therefore, the specifications for building the temple are also according to this, but the temple of the goddess of agriculture is very exquisite, and the archbishop feels that he should send people to participate in advance, otherwise it will be too troublesome to renovate later.

"No problem." Adele smiled.

Immediately afterward, she led the group to the commercial and residential areas, and finally to the refugee shed at the outer gate, where a large number of displaced people had gathered.

"For now."

Adele pointed to the refugee shed in front of her and said, "We have taken in about 6,000 refugees, all of whom are dragging their families, which is easier to manage." These people will be used to clear the land, and all the tools and seeds will be provided by the city of Modo. But they need you to send people to manage and teach. ”

"There's a lot of wasteland around here, and if you reclaim it, you should be able to sustain yourself next year."

"According to our calculations, the city could expand to 50,000 people. The current population is more than 18,000 people, so we can still accept about 32,000 refugees. ”

A city of 50,000 people.

The archbishop and the others looked at each other with a look of surprise on their faces, because the other cities were about 30,000 people, and 50,000 people were already considered big cities. The fact that Modo City can be counted as such a scale means that they are very confident in the management of the city, even if it is such a small city, they are confident that they can complete the material deployment and attack of 50,000 people. At the same time, the archbishop also noticed that many parts of the city were being renovated, most notably sewers and ditches, and the roads near the market were being repaved.

"Huh?"

The archbishop looked around for a moment, and suddenly said, "Why are there gray dwarves here?" ”

Not far away, in what appeared to be a blacksmith's shop, there were about a dozen gray dwarves busy, working while drinking, often picking up the flask and taking a sip after a slam of the bang.

Adele smiled and said, "These are the residents of Modo City. ”

"They are blacksmiths who are good at blacksmithing, and they are the ones who make the farming tools that house the displaced people at present, and they will also provide the weapons of the City Guard in the future. These gray dwarves will not reside in the city, and they will return to the city of Mordor once they have done this work. ”

"After all."

Speaking of this, Adele smiled and said, "This kind of excellent blacksmith is also in high demand in Modo City. ”

The gray dwarves forge all fine iron.

There seems to be a lot of steel resources in Modo City, the archbishop just glanced at it, and found that the quality of these agricultural tools is very good, most of them are steel instead of pig iron, a priest picked up his weapon and looked at it, and couldn't help but admire: "Sure enough, it's a fine product!" ”

Grey dwarves don't like to deal with outsiders.

The bearded gray dwarf at the head just snorted when he heard this, as if he was taking it for granted, and then went on to busy his business.

If it weren't for the Great Shadow Lord's request, they wouldn't want to come to this place, where there is no good wine and no oversized furnace, which is too much worse than Mordor City.

"Maple City expects to recruit an army of three thousand people."

Adele glanced at the archbishop in front of her and smiled, "After all, this is an extraordinary time. So we hope that the agricultural church can also provide some manpower. Of course, all weapons and equipment are provided by us. ”

One word.

Ostentatious!

Adele's every word indicates that the city of Mordor is wealthy, as if she doesn't care about this expenditure at all. In fact, I really don't care, because Sauron's plan to lay out the bottomless abyss has already begun to be produced. A steady stream of steel and rare minerals is being poured into the city of Mordor from the bottomless abyss, and that is now a fraction of the cost.
