Chapter 30: Werewolves
Randur clasped his hands together, propped his arms on the armrests of the chair, and muttered: "His Excellency the Pope's proposal is very practical and fair, and I swear in the name of the gods, and I believe in you, but ...... How can humanity guarantee that it will stop the invaders of another continent, and what does that sentence you asked Lemmon Kerr to bring to me? ”
Shepard shook his head slightly and chuckled, "I must be able to block this kind of talk, I don't dare to say it...... But before the collapse of the Orton Domain, there is no doubt that the west of the Kingdom of Sylvan will inevitably be shielded by us. ”
"As for the latter point, I think it's already clear, the world has begun to change, Lord Randil, the elves need a guardian, otherwise they can only succumb to the changes of others in the tide of change! The Church can promise never to do anything to allies, but as the faith of my Lord spreads, Lord Landier, do you want to see the day when the elves believe in human gods? ”
Such an obvious hint that Randyr couldn't help but say, "Why do your gods want to help me?" Doesn't he want to gain more followers and fewer possible enemies? ”
Shepard laughed: "Your Excellency! Gods are not omnipotent! If only some of the elves voluntarily believe in our lord, then my lord is very willing, but if it involves the faith of the entire elf race, it will inevitably distract the energy of my lord and the church, and cause friction and contradictions with you royal families, which my lord does not want to see! ”
"Therefore, in order to have a solid ally, and to have as many helpers as possible who can talk to each other on an equal footing in the future, my lord has commissioned me to make this suggestion, because with the number and nature of the elves, the benefits of an elven god far outweigh the role of a human god, and besides, the human race in the future will inevitably have more than one true god, and my lord needs foreign help, and the elves also need it, so why not do such a happy thing?"
Randuil took a deep breath and said word by word, "Your Excellency, you and your gods have convinced me, but what is your method?" ”
Shepard smiled: "It's very simple, the specific method I will tell you later, Lord Landil's accumulation is enough, but there is a lack of the right way to achieve the god position, and there is one more thing, does Lord Landil know the news of other elf kingdoms?" ”
"You know, the north of Sylvan is the kingdom of Sinda, which is the kingdom of the gray elves, and I also have a part of the blood of the gray elves, and further south...... Most of the green elves live in seclusion in forests and river valleys, and their [Illyad Kingdom] is called a kingdom, but there is actually no king, what do you want to do with this, you ask? ”
"It's just a small proposal," Shepard clapped his hands, "I wonder if Lord Randur has the ambition to become the only elven god on this continent?" ”
Randur didn't even think about it and said, "Elves have no ambitions!" Only one God? That's horrible! ”
Shepard shrugged his shoulders and said, "In that case, after I tell you the method, Lord Randur can contact the qualified lords in those two kingdoms to share this method and your experience with them, and when you succeed, we will discuss the next step." ”
Randil's eyes flickered, and he wrote down every word by heart, and when Shepard finished speaking, he pondered for a long time before he sighed, "My intuition tells me...... There's a good chance that your approach will succeed...... I don't know how to express my gratitude for your generosity. ”
Shepard said lightly: "Be an alliance with me, be a friend with me, that's enough, Your Excellency Randil doesn't have to worry too much." ”
Randur said seriously: "I will make a covenant and oath after I succeed, but the world testifies that I and the [Sylvan Kingdom] will be a solid ally of the [Lord of Light] and the [Church of Light]!" ”
"I very much look forward to the good news of Your Excellency's success." Shepard smiled as he held his teacup.
When Randur left, Shepard stretched and said regretfully, "It's a pity that no one can share such a joy......
After thinking about it, he said loudly: "Someone! Go and invite the three flower crown saints to come to me! Let's just say I have something important to discuss with them! ”
*
Old World, Myratma.
Although the news from the expeditionary fleet has long been known to the churches, it is the first time that it has been confirmed among the civilians that the fleet that once went to sea not only confirmed the discovery of the New World, but also brought back a large amount of loot!
Gold, silver, spices, herbs, furs, minerals...... Too much loot was unloaded by the workers on the docks, and when the inspectors opened the wooden boxes to inspect them, the onlookers exclaimed at what they contained, and for a while, the news of 'the land of wealth flowing with the river of gold' spread.
Shepard, on the other hand, found a passenger boat, rented a room at his expense, and planned to go up the river along the Iss.
"Tesser, just like in previous lives, the gods have chosen this country that has just emerged from the war, and as the news spreads, the two docks of Myratma and Manon will become more and more prosperous...... After all, from now on, the plot of [Blood and Gold] begins, for the sake of fiefdoms, wealth, fame or other messy things, but the idle adventurers in the west will rush to the New World with green eyes...... It seems that it is easy to expand the territory. ”
Instead of staying in the room, Shepard stood on the deck and felt the inland atmosphere that was very different from the sea breeze, and ocean voyages usually became boring quickly, not to mention that he had already taken this route many times in his previous life.
The scenery on both sides of the river was not in his eyes, and he was actually thinking about other things in his mind as he looked at the land.
"Fight in the New World, dig treasure in the Old World...... Although the feeling of expanding the territory is intoxicating, who teaches the focus of the gameplay is on the Old World, those ruins, treasures, tombs, treasure maps...... Hey, the main quests are basically in the Old World, and the New World is mainly about chopping and farming. "The experience system of [God War] is very comprehensive, and you can gain experience in both combat and life to improve your skill level and career level.
There seemed to be someone whispering next to him, but Shepard didn't care, still thinking about his own business.
"Along the river...... I remember arriving in Modesa in half a day, right? There's a little plot around there.,The quest reward seems to be a green sword? Very good, I'm also poor and white now, and I've been following primitive people in the New World for so long that I've almost forgotten what civilized society is like......"
The equipment in the previous game is graded, shabby gray, fine white, fine blue, delicate green, fine is similar to military weapons, and refined is equivalent to the equipment used by some masters or the descendants of kings and nobles.
Enchanted weapons are not necessarily related to the level, the color indicates the quality of the item, and there are many conditions for judging the quality of the enchantment, such as the enchantment material and effect.
Above the green, there is the orange artifact, or like a god-made instrument, representing the pinnacle of human craftsmanship and enchantment, some of which are indeed made by God, and some of which are man-made.
It's a pity that among the humans in the New World, the people who can make white equipment can be regarded as high-level manufacturers, which shows that the civilization level of the New World is miserable, after all, it was originally a cool place for players, but I didn't expect to have Shepard, a guy who came through and didn't play cards according to the routine.
The level of civilization of the elves in the New World is extremely high, and the soldiers of Lemonkel's patrol are all in full green equipment, which Shepard can see at a glance.
And the elven king Randil, he has at least two artifacts on his body, but his robe is luxurious and comfortable to look at, and the quality is similar to that of an artifact, but there is no enchantment, and the magic power of the enchanted item fluctuates, which is also one of the reasons why Shepard discovered him.
"Hello, excuse me, are you an adventurer?"
The main body is surrounded by various affairs in the New World, and the doppelganger is enjoying a rare leisure time at this time, thinking about things aimlessly in his head, but suddenly a sweet female voice rings in his ears.
He came back to his senses, turned his head to look, and saw a man and a woman standing by the boat gang not far away, watching him, and the voices he heard before he came were also between them.
Shepard narrowed his eyes slightly, a man and a woman were wearing clothes of good texture, there were some similarities in appearance, they should be brothers and sisters, they were not very old, the man was quite heroic, wearing a long sword, but the hilt was not carved with a family crest, but the mark of the god of justice, Tyre.
In addition to her sweet voice, the woman is very beautiful in appearance, has a quiet temperament, and is also draped in a shawl, like a noble lady who has traveled back.
"Something?" Without the members of the expeditionary fleet, Shepard didn't have to continue to disguise the iceberg innocent man Troger, so he looked at the two with a smile.
The girl who spoke had a slightly red cheek, but said generously: "That's right, Mr. Adventurer, we are the children of the barons of Modesa Town, and we are returning to the town from Myratma, because the dock is still some distance from my family's mansion, so we want to hire Mr. to protect us, and we will give you the reward we deserve." ”
The boy was not very immature, and with a little aristocratic pride on his face, he said loudly: "We also have our own guards, but we have heard that there have been wild wolves near the town and the docks recently, and you seem to be experienced, so we want to hire you." ”
'Children of the nobility of the town of Modessa? Such a coincidence? Shepard's mouth opened slightly, feeling a little incredible, the little plot in Modesa Town is actually that the eldest daughter of the Baron's family falls in love with a handsome guy passing by, and the handsome guy himself is a beast, that is, a werewolf.
Judging from the age, it should be the girl's sister, and the more troublesome thing about the plot is that the werewolves have endangered the safety of the nearby residents, although the strength is not strong, but it comes and goes like the wind, and civilians and militia are not opponents.
