Chapter 14: The Temple
It should be said that Cain is worthy of being the most qualified nobleman, and at the same time he is a rare good teacher, in just a few days, Mijas was able to talk and laugh with His Excellency the Grand Duke Don Mins in this kind of meeting between nobles, of course, this is also because Mijas and Don Mings both belong to the royalist faction in the empire, and the Grand Duke Tang Mings has maintained a considerable degree of tolerance for this legendary figure, the close friend of the previous king, and to this extent, Some ceremonial behaviors are no longer so important, so Mijas's trip was a perfect success.

"Young master, there is news from the dwarves that the temple of the Earth Goddess has been completed." Speaking was a new little maid, named Licon, who was the prettiest and youngest of the maids, and the best maid Cain had ever trained, and in Cain's words, "it is a blessing to be a human being to discover the gifts he possesses at this age." Because of this, she was appointed by Cain as Mijas's exclusive maid, responsible for some of the tasks that Cain himself was doing.
"Oh, those dwarves are moving pretty fast, I remember when I saw that drawing, I was almost confused, I didn't expect them to finish it so quickly?" Mijas said as he got up and walked in the direction of the temple. Even if it's a dragon, it's not omnipotent, Mijas is a standard zero cognition in architectural design, he still remembers that when he found the famous dwarven craftsman town, saying that when the goddess of the earth was about to build a temple of his own, the group of guys trembled with excitement, and then in just one day, the group of guys who obviously stayed all night took out a stack of drawings, and various data indicators saw that Mijas's head was abnormal, but in short, it was a very powerful temple.
"It is said that there are a lot of minotaurs who have come to help, and there are many high-level professionals here, and it is said that there is a high-level shaman of a small tribe who directly brought his own people to settle here!" Ricon followed behind Mihas, reporting the information he knew, which Cain told Licon about, at the beginning, the local officials below were still hesitant to accept this group of foreign friends, but Cain directly agreed to it, but Mijas would not care about this little thing, and besides, a high-level professional is willing to settle in your territory, do you still care what race he is? This kind of local official with no vision is really incompetent, and it is no wonder that he can only stay in the countryside and be a petty official.
"The strength of those fools is indeed big enough." Mijas nodded, you must know that the construction of a temple is never allowed to use extraordinary power, that is to say, the role that a legendary mage can play in this matter may not be as big as a middle-level warrior, although dwarves are much stronger than humans, but their strong attribute is physique, so just rely on these dwarves, even if there are 3 quasi-legendary masters who are tempted by Mijas to come and work, don't think about completing it in a few months. But now with the addition of the Minotaurs, it's different, their natural advantage attribute is strength, and they are definitely the best porters, you must know that the main material for building the temple is the obsidian that Mijas went directly to the earth elemental realm to move!
Since Mijas was "born" by the earth goddess who is still the mother of the earth, there has been a faint connection between him and the earth elemental realm, coupled with the fact that the origin of the four elemental realms is now absorbed by the main plane, these four half-planes are all in the weakest state, so even if it is only the strength of a middle-level legend like Mijas, he can freely enter and exit the earth elemental realm by virtue of this connection. Obsidian is also characterized by being simple, hard and heavy. Therefore, with the addition of the Minotaur, the time spent transporting raw materials has been reduced several times at once, and the means of resonating with some elements of the Minotaur Shaman is also one of the few supernatural powers that can be used to build a temple.
"I thought that these stubborn minotaurs and harsh dwarves would quarrel when they worked together, but it seems that I underestimated their reverence for the crown of the goddess of the earth." Mijas had thought about asking the Minotaurs to help before, but he gave up due to the coordination problems that would arise when multi-race cooperation, but now it seems that he was overly concerned, and even if he didn't invite, the Minotaurs came to have a lot of "volunteers" for their "Mother Earth".
"It is said that there were indeed several verbal conflicts, but they did not break out under the persuasion of some local stonemasons, and they are now working together very well!" This is the information that Rikon herself heard, when she was working in the tavern, she heard more than once that the stonemasons who received a good salary from Mijas came to drink and brag, because once the minotaur and the dwarf were allowed to quarrel, they could not work and could not get paid, these human stonemasons played the role of peacemaker many times, and the relationship between the three tribes became better and better under continuous contact, and the day before he was selected to be a maid in Mihas's castle, Liconel even saw the stonemason uncles invite two minotaurs over for a drink.
"Mankind does have a unique advantage in eloquence." Mijas was very satisfied with the harmony between the three different races under his rule, but this was also the light of his goddess "mother", if it were not for the construction of the first separate temple of the earth goddess, these dwarves and minotaurs would have lost the constraints of their faith, then their shortcomings would have become obvious, now at least everyone is a believer in the earth goddess, and they will naturally be more tolerant of each other.
The Nine Holy Church is a church that has been widely spread among various races since the gods came into the world to seal the elemental creatures two thousand years ago, but due to the long-term cultivation of the gods, the Nine Holy Churches that lack miracles have naturally declined, except for the loyalty of some minotaurs and dwarves to the gods of the earth, only the elves still have a considerable degree of faith in the gods of nature, although there are many pan-believers in the Nine Holy Churches in the human race, there are very few people who have reached the level of shallow faith, after all, as a short-lived race, the forgetting speed of human beings has always been the highest among the five races. In this case, there is only one main hall left in the current Nine Holy Church in the holy city of Harvis, and only the nature gods are worshiped enough, and the other gods, even the sun god Hana, who is revered as the king of god kings, do not have much "incense", although as gods, they don't care about this.
Mijas wants to build the main temple of the Earth Goddess, the main hall of the Nine Holy Churches naturally knows, and they naturally know that the Earth Goddess is the first to be "born", but here is a little embarrassing, the Pope of the Nine Holy Churches also went to participate in the crusade against the Mother Earth, so before the Earth Goddess took the initiative to contact them, the Nine Holy Churches did not dare to take the lead in speaking out. Because the Nine Holy Church is now located in the territory of the elven race, they also learned some information from the elven queen, so they expressed strong support for Mijas to build the temple of the earth goddess, not only sent the original bishop of the earth god line, but also attached 10 devout elf sacrifices, after all, due to geographical factors, almost all the elites cultivated by the current Nine Holy Church are elves, even the 9 archbishops, there are a full 5 elves, considering the number of elves, 10 devout sacrifices, It was really to give all the power of the earth line in the Nine Holy Churches to Mijas, which was also a kind of show of favor to the earth goddess.
"Your Excellency Mijas." When Mijas walked to the built temple, the bishop sent by the Nine Holy Churches gave the "Son of God" a standard greeting to him, which made Mijas suddenly feel like he was back in Cain's class. Shaking his head not to think about those horrible things, Mijas opened his mouth and asked, "Is there something wrong?" Bishop Green? In fact, he didn't like to talk to this serious old man much, because the other party's eyes looked at him almost like faith, seeing such an old elf who was older than himself looking at him with this kind of eyes, Mijas had always had a strange feeling, and even the old bishop asked others to be respectful to Mijas, and the already very old elf druid was even a little excited when he reported the results, and was caught by Bishop Green for a while. It's just that Old Green is older than the old elf, and the old druid is really trained to be as respectful as a child.
"Goddess, she, sent the first oracle!" Old Green's tone was rarely a little excited, you must know that when he was advising the old druid, he was gentle and preachy, and now he still has a blush on his face!
"Lord Mijas, the goddess has chosen you to be the first archbishop of the Earth Temple!" After the Earth Temple becomes independent, it will naturally have its own system, and the Earth Temple, which was originally completely subordinate to the Nine Holy Churches, will also need its own archbishop, and other god systems will also be independent in the future, and the Nine Holy Churches will eventually become the Natural Church, but the Nine Holy Churches will still be placed in this boss hall.
"Huh?" Mijas was completely stupid, he didn't know what the earth goddess was thinking, but he knew that once he became the archbishop, there would be more troubles, so he walked quickly into the temple, although he had not officially accepted the baptism of the gods and became part of the god kingdom of the earth goddess, but there was Mihas, the "god son" here, plus the earth goddess must be watching here, Mijas could summon the will of the earth goddess and pull himself into the goddess's kingdom.
Mijas closed his eyes and meditated, "Mother! "Since I'm going to ask for someone, of course it's better to have a sweeter tone." Come in and say, my child. The goddess of the earth was summoned by Mihas, and with a little divine power, she opened the door to the space leading to her kingdom, and quickly closed it as Mijas entered, leaving Bishop Green, who was excited to witness all this, in the empty main hall chanting elven songs in praise of the gods of the earth.
