Chapter 126: A tail is to be exposed after all
It was the gossip and gossip that Aine didn't bother to look at in those forums that made Aine finally find a breakthrough - in the game of his previous life, this Sir Sophie was actually not like this.
Although Aine has never been able to determine whether the characters in this real world are different from the games in his previous life, at this time, it is better to believe that there is no certainty about this kind of thing!
In the previous life, the time when the game was launched corresponds to the time in this real world, which was about a few months earlier than Greion disappeared from Ain's house, at that time, although there were frequent frictions on the border, it was still very safe in the Northwest Fortress, and this Sir Sophie was very fond of some fighting performances because of his beliefs, so he set up a ring in his Sophie Fort - in fact, the system was set up as a place for a group of warriors to fight each other in close quarters without fatalization.
And every time the victor at the end of the chaos is received by Sir Sophie, they will see Sir Sophie's prayer - not to the "Platinum Dragon" Bahamut as today, but to the "wrestler" Kod, who has mastered the priesthood of "strong", "battle", and "storm".
Even those who can't stand Ian's religious knowledge even know that pan-believers who worship and revere multiple gods at the same time do not pray exclusively, and their so-called prayers are all performed in the environment of the temple, and the priest of the god who follows them, and in terms of rituals, it is also very different. Believers who think that they will pray in private are not pan-believers, and as long as they are more devout believers, they will not worship or worship more than one deity at the same time.
Sir Sophie would never have thought that the Baron Ain in front of him still had such a secret method, and it was not until a long time later that he heard the news, and he was a little crying and laughing - although Sir Sophie at that time had already turned into an evil warrior, and even abandoned his life for the sake of stronger combat ability, and transformed into an undead creature, and had lost the function of crying.
There are even some landscape photos that show the flag hanging at the top of the inner fort of Fort Sophie, which is not the same.
Sometimes it's the flag of Riesel, sometimes it's the Sophie family coat of arms banner with the "Platinum Dragon" insignia, and sometimes it's the Sophie family coat of arms with the "Wrestler" insignia.
"I was still too young at the time, otherwise I could see from these flags that something was wrong with this guy." Aine was relieved, because the old fox's tail had been exposed in front of Ain, although the old fox probably still felt that his tail was well hidden.
"Praise to Your Majesty Bahamut, and thank you Sir Sophie for your generosity." Aine nodded, because he was not a believer in the "Platinum Dragon", and he didn't even have a formal belief in any of the gods in this world, so he naturally didn't need to use those specific poses to reply to Sophie's words.
……
For Ain and his more than 90 people, the room was vacant in the inner fort of Fort Sophie for use in the war, although it had a bit of an unfriendly smell that had not been used for a long time, but it was still much better than the environment of those wild mountains.
As for the meals and food, after Aine took out the gold bars and gems that had been prepared, Sir Sophie, who had been a little shirking, directly accepted it.
Although he had even sworn in the name of the "Platinum Dragon" Bahamut before, and now Sophie Fort did not have a lot of food for the winter, but after seeing those gold bars and gems, he hurriedly sighed at the honor and protection of the "Platinum Dragon" Bahamut, and then agreed to arrange food and prepare dry food for them to rest for a few days before setting off for Winterfell again.
"Actually, I always think that the faith of Evendra, the 'changer', seems to be more suitable for this Sir Sophie......" Al Aine complained silently in his heart with a little crying and laughing, "After getting the gold bars and gems, Sir Sophie's turning speed is really faster than turning the book......"
Because there are mountain peaks on the east and west sides of Fort Sophie, not long after lunch, except for a little bright sky, there is no sun shining in the entire Fort Sophie, and Aine has nothing to do at this time, just wandering around Fort Sophie - because of safety reasons, the more than 90 people brought by Ain, except for Harden and Ain himself, are not allowed to leave the gates of Fort Sophie's inner fort. Of course, this decision, Ain is very understanding, if there is a group of refugees in Ain's future fiefdom who can only be said to be relatively clear, Ain will only settle them, but it will temporarily restrict their freedom - the word "barely clear" is actually a bit unclear from another point of view.
The whole of Sophie is not very big, nor is it very lively, but there is a very interesting place, and the gossip that Ain found in the bookshelf in his head also said that this small castle built in the saddle of the mountains also hides a tavern, and this tavern has some NPCs above the average level of players at the time.
You know, this kind of small castle like a small village, where are there NPCs with professional abilities who are not in the army? Except for the army or militia, the rest of the NPCs should be ordinary villagers.
"If that is the case, there are still some veterans who have lost interest in being a soldier, whether it is a private soldier of the nobility or a semi-spontaneously organized militia." Ain also sighed silently in his heart, "These veterans are the elite who experienced the most successful June War in their generation, and then survived that and its brutal tug-of-war......
Following the guidance of the gossip posts, Ain quickly found the tavern that had no obvious indication at all, except for a wooden board with a beer mug engraved on the wall of the tavern, Aine could not find any sign that the room was a tavern - and the wooden board was also covered with various graffiti, and there was no way to find out what was originally carved on the wooden side if it was not for Ain's careful observation.
