Chapter 241: Recruitment
Kingdom of Light.
"This is the second time since the last demon projection that a passage to the abyss has been opened on the continent of Draenor."
The deep voice of the God of Light echoed in the hall, but both in tone and expression, it was very calm.
Meleth sat upright on the throne in a silky light blue robe, and her voice was as soft as usual: "Will the Abyss notice the presence of Draenor?" ”
"When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares at you." Shepard said a proverb about the main plane, but he smiled again: "In other words, if you don't look at the abyss, the abyss won't look at you, but the connection between the planes involves time and space, it's not so simple, fortunately, it's only two contacts, even if a demon rushes to the main plane, unless he can return to the abyss and send the coordinates to a big deal, if he leaves this part of his power in the main plane, he won't have a chance." ”
Meles nodded in understanding, looking at Shepard's handsome appearance like a marble sculpture, and said curiously, "You don't seem to be very worried, but ...... Happy? ”
Shepard tilted his head to look at her and smiled, "Is it so obvious?" It was a happy thing that I found out about my authority over Draenor...... It has increased a lot, the last time this kind of thing happened, it was when the demon projection came, and this time it seems that it was because of the opening of the portal, so that the breath of the abyss spread to the main plane, scaring the will of the continent that was still very ignorant. ”
Melers looked puzzled: "However, the will of the mainland is not ......"
"God is not omnipotent, and neither is the will of the continent, especially the will of the continent that I am talking about is only an embodiment, not some kind of individual, nor does it use its own self-consciousness, maybe it is more like those joint meetings among human beings and the like, the will of the continent is a certain concept that everything on the entire continent is condensed, this concept cannot make choices or make decisions, it can only promote certain things."
"That's why the world needs gods, before the power of intelligent life can replace the gods to change the world, the gods are an indispensable part of all the main planes, but the abyss is not, each new member of the bottomless abyss represents the death of a world or continent, just like human beings will fear death, because the will of the continent that has been condensed by intelligent life will also fear that kind of ending, but it can't resist or make a choice, the only thing it can do is for me, the god who shares authority with it, to deal with it."
"Just as the children of fate are all small puddles that have sprung up in the long river of fate, the will of the mainland also transferred part of the authority to me at this time to increase my strength against the abyss......"
"Do you want to ......," Meleth looked at Shepard with wide eyes.
Shepard's eyes lowered, as if he wanted to see the distant main plane through the temple: "Of course I won't refuse, and I can't refuse, but I won't have a bad brain to fight against the abyss, which is the accumulation of countless years in the entire multiverse, at least for the current me, it is still an existence that can only be looked up to......"
He turned his head to look at Melers with a gentle gaze, calming down the somewhat nervous god of love and family, and said with a smile: "The will of the continent is just fear of that kind of breath and power, but it can't distinguish it, I can, so you don't have to worry, but although I can't fight against the entire abyss, maybe one day I can go to a certain layer to take a stroll." ”
Meles said softly, "As long as you don't take risks, wouldn't it be nice for us to be like this......"
Shepard looked at her and smiled, and when he looked back, he remembered the flower-crowned saints in the church city, Roseth, Evie, and Natalie......
He didn't say anything.
……
Draenor Continent, New Ruth City.
With the upper echelons of the expeditionary force turning a blind eye, the underground trade between a large number of adventurers and nobles and the natives of the New World has developed very rapidly, and has even become completely public, and after the gods of faith have been incorporated into the Bright God system, the Ruth tribe has completely become a vassal of the Dawn Kingdom, and the tribal leader has become the first earl of the kingdom.
Gems, Gold, Silver, Magic Ore, Magic Plants...... The continent of Draenor is very rich in various resources, after the expeditionary force was unable to attack, these things became a sought-after commodity in the trading market, and the Count of Ruth, who originally lost Ruth City, now controls three newly built large towns, and continues to name the largest one Ruth, but it is used to being called New Ruth City.
In the Adventurer's Tavern opened by the Expeditionary Force, the large tavern that can accommodate hundreds of people is bustling, and the central task board is hung up with new tasks from time to time, or someone takes on a suitable mission.
Once encountered kobolds chasing vampire warriors in the wilderness, Monreker, the leader of the [Eyes of Nature] team, was still dressed in standard druid attire, he was still dressed in clothes made of green leaves and branches, wearing a vine-woven bracelet on his wrist, a half-human stick as thick as an adult's arm, a half-human stick was put aside, a dagger, a throwing knife and a short spear hung from his waist, and he was drinking a glass of water in his hand, smiling as he watched his team members drink beer and brag to each other.
"Captain, when is the mission?" The halfling thief next to him played with the dagger in his hand, took a sip of juice, looked at Monrekel and asked curiously.
Monrecker picked up a piece of dried fruit from the plate on the table and put it in his mouth, chewed it before replying, "Don't worry, the last mission was not bad, so I plan to wait a little longer to see if there is a task worth doing." ”
The halfling shrugged: "You are the boss, listen to you." ”
"Hey! Damn, what kind of mission is this?! ”
An exclamation came from the side of the task board, and then after a while, there was a lot of discussion, Mon Rykel subconsciously turned his head, and saw a group of adventurers yelling around the task board, he turned his head and shook his head at the team members, and naturally someone got up and went there to inquire about the situation.
After a while, the team returned and introduced the matter to Monrekel.
"What? Into the eastern forests to catch the natives? Monrecker paused for a moment: "Isn't it the rift valley and those indigenous outposts to the east?" ”
The team member who ran to see the mission shrugged his shoulders: "It is said that the earthquake some time ago collapsed the rift valley and shook out a tunnel dug by the indigenous dwarves, so the Dawn Kingdom established by the natives in the south put out a task to recruit adventurers to go to the ancient mountain range where the dwarves are located...... Captain, the task pays well, can we take it? ”
Monrekel listened to the information on the mission and muttered, "Demon...... Pick up, it's not that we want to clear out the demons, just catch some dwarves out, Romens and his [Timberwolves] are now taking the pioneer collar to be their own pioneer knights, this time relying on this task to make a fortune, we also go to buy a pioneer token, we can't be adventurers for a lifetime! ”[.]
