Chapter 110: Farming Guardian! 【Request for Recommendation Votes】
There was a clear hint of displeasure in the expression of the goddess of agriculture. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
She has paid a lot for her beliefs, and Sauron's words obviously have a trace of negation of all this, and other gods with more violent tempers may have turned their faces, but she is a different kind of agricultural goddess after all, and she is just quietly watching Sauron at the moment, waiting for what he will say next.
The goddess of agriculture thought that Sauron would speak many things.
But Sauron didn't do that, he just smiled and sat on the chaise longue in front of the goddess of agriculture, and said calmly, "You should have been to other places, right?" ”
The goddess of agriculture frowned slightly when she heard this.
Sauron looked at the beautiful scene around him and smiled, "It's really nice here. Much more beautiful than my kingdom. ”
"I've traveled a lot along the way, some cities have been completely ruined, countless people have been displaced, many people are starving, and north of the Onyx River you can see bones everywhere, both human and other creatures."
"The peace and beauty here is only because the lords of the manors and the nobles have blocked the homeless people from approaching."
"They were turned away and locked on the other side of the river."
Sauron sighed softly, and continued, "I don't have the idea of denying your idea. It's just that everything you want to create cannot be created on the basis of civilization in the current material plane. ”
"If it's just a little bit of a couple, you should be able to realize your idea here."
"But this is only the Southern Duchy, and it is only an insignificant place in the entire continent, and it is a very small piece of land in the physical plane."
The southern principalities are not as large as the south coast.
It's about one-thirtieth the size of a continent, and it's an inconspicuous place in the entire material plane, and Arendelle is more than three times the size of here. The influence of the goddess of agriculture has always been confined to this land, and as soon as she leaves this land, the influence of the goddess of agriculture decreases dramatically.
"What are you trying to express?" The tone of the goddess of agriculture was a little unpleasant.
Sauron raised his head to meet her gaze and said seriously, "You have the most believers in the material plane, and you have also inherited the priesthood of Mother Earth. But have you ever wondered why you haven't been able to advance to the powerful divine power until now? ”
Yes.
The goddess of agriculture has always been a medium divine power.
Although she has the largest number of believers in the material plane, her godhead power has not been able to improve for a long time.
If Sauron's followers are only a few hundred thousand, then the believers of the goddess of agriculture are at least a few million, and basically all races related to farming have her followers, but such a huge number of believers still can't make her advance to a powerful divine power. The reason for this is naturally very simple, that is, although the believers of the goddess of agriculture are very large, the quality is completely out.
The most people who believe in the goddess of agriculture are farmers, which is a very large base, but this base also means that their faith is not pious enough.
Every farmer prays to the goddess of agriculture before sowing and harvesting, but that's about it, there are so many pan-faith that ten pan-faith farmers can't compare to one more devout believer. The priesthood of the goddess of agriculture and the practices of the church made it impossible for her to raise enough fanatics, so even with a large base, the number of fanatics of the goddess of agriculture was probably less than one-tenth of Sauron's. This is also the reason why the goddess of agriculture has not been able to advance for a long time, except for the territory of the harvest city, in the southern principality her church cannot fully grasp.
Hearing Sauron's words, the goddess of agriculture couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Sauron continued, "I have passed through many places along the way, and I can see that although there are your temples everywhere, these lords and nobles only know how to ask for you, and they believe in you not because they really revere you, but because you can bring them a good harvest. ”
"I've heard that several oracles of the church have been vetoed by the nobles lately?"
The goddess of agriculture issued an oracle, that is, to accept the homeless people from the outside world, but this oracle was violated by yin and yang and was not carried out at all.
The expression of the goddess of agriculture was a little unbearable, and she said in a cold voice: "What are you here for?" Is it just to mock me? ”
Sauron shook his head.
He stood up and walked in front of the goddess of agriculture, then stretched out his palm and said softly, "On the contrary, I came here to seek cooperation, but also to help you advance to a powerful divine power. ”
Help yourself?
The goddess of agriculture looked at Sauron suspiciously, Sauron's priesthood was so different from her, she didn't know how Sauron could help her.
"Civilization."
Sauron seemed to see the doubts in her heart, and said slowly, "Only a strong enough civilization can change all this. Without enough civilization as a foundation, ignorance and barbarism will never achieve your ideals. ”
"And I can help you do that."
The goddess of agriculture laughed when she heard this, and said with a hint of mockery on her expression: "Civilization? The civilization of the Arcane Empire? ”
"Nope." Sauron shook his head and said, "More rational than the Arcane Empire. What I want to create is a more harmonious civilization, a peaceful coexistence between man and nature, and although I have not yet done so, I have seen how far I can ultimately achieve it in the future. ”
The goddess of agriculture fell into deep thought.
After a long time, she looked up and whispered, "What do you want?" And what are you going to give? ”
Sauron looked into the other party's eyes and said solemnly, "I need you to form a true alliance agreement with me. And what I pay is a vow. ”
Vow?
The goddess of agriculture raised her head with interest and said, "What oath? ”
Sauron smiled and said seriously, "In the name of the true god, I swear to protect the farming!" ”
Startled.
The goddess of agriculture raised her head in surprise and suddenly chuckled playfully, "Are you going to swear to fight for me?" ”
Sauron shook his head.
He said earnestly: "I swear to protect the farming. Maintain agrarian civilization. Anyone who destroys and threatens the agrarian civilization will be my enemy. I will help you to promote agriculture, protect agriculture, develop agriculture. ”
"I will be your staunchest ally, fighting for you when agriculture is threatened!"
The goddess of agriculture fell silent.
After a long while, she looked at Sauron with a hesitant face and muttered, "Are you serious?" ”
It's not that she's doubting everything Sauron said, it's that she still can't believe it, because a god of the evil camp of order, an evil god who holds the power of death and killing, could really identify with farming in his heart, Sauron can't deceive her with lies, but it is precisely because it is the truth that makes her even more surprised.
"Agriculture is the cornerstone of everything."
Sauron nodded slowly, stretched out his palm again towards the goddess of agriculture, and said calmly, "I'm serious. ”
A hint of a smile emerged.
The goddess of agriculture quietly looked at Sauron in front of her, and then a smile appeared on her beautiful face, she gently held Sauron's palm, and said slowly, "Okay." I promise you. ”
All the time.
There is no real battle god in the agricultural gods, whether it is the goddess of spring water and peace, or the goddess of rivers, or the goddess of sprouts, none of these gods under the command of the goddess of agriculture can fight. Agrarian civilization itself is very fragile, which just needs a strong force to protect, war will destroy farming, plunder will destroy farming, tyranny will destroy farming, almost all kinds of disasters will bring heavy damage to farming. This is also the reason why the goddess of agriculture can only be a partial, she is not unwilling but unable to expand, prosperous farming is almost always driven by social order, and when turmoil comes, farming will inevitably weaken.
Sauron's oath means that he will fight to protect the farming civilization!
From now on, all races involved in nomadic fishing and hunting will become hostile to him, and tyranny, chaos, turmoil, and war are also enemies that he needs to fight, because they will also destroy farming.
The oath Sauron made meant that he would face almost all the enemies of the goddess of agriculture.
A golden glow emerges.
The moment Sauron made a pact with the goddess of agriculture, the golden divine brilliance had already spread, and almost all the gods learned that they had signed an alliance oath, although neither god announced the content of the oath, but this kind of oath that all gods had sensed was at least at the level of the Pantheon, which meant that they could only have an oath in the name of the true god.
Meantime.
A brief vow echoed in the ears of the other gods.
- "In my true name, Sauron, I swear to protect the farming!" ”
A very simple sentence.
But the chain reaction was huge, and almost in the blink of an eye, in the temples of all the faiths and services of Sauron in the entire material plane, an emblem of an ear of wheat suddenly appeared. In all the temples associated with the goddess of agriculture, the emblem representing Sauron also appears.
Military alliance!
This is the highest level of oath of the gods, which means that the two gods have become the staunchest allies.
Intra-half-plane.
A divine light emerged, and then a woman with beautiful long hair like a waterfall appeared in front of her, first leaning slightly towards the goddess of agriculture, and then smiling at Sauron, "Lord of the Shadows. ”
- [Spring and Goddess of Peace] - Edas!
A deity of weak divine power, and also a god of the goddess of agriculture, the most hostile deity is the god of hunting, Marat, perhaps because Marat died at the hands of Sauron, and her attitude towards Sauron seems very friendly.
Immediately afterward, the brilliance of the other two gods emerged.
After Sauron made a vow with the goddess of agriculture, her three gods arrived at the first time.
The figures of the Goddess of the River and the Goddess of Sprouts appeared within the half-plane, nodding slightly to Sauron, and then turning their suspicious gaze to the Goddess of Agriculture.
All this was completely unexpected!
No one would have thought that Sauron and the goddess of agriculture would suddenly conclude such a high-level offensive and defensive alliance contract!
