Missionary Wright's brief and clear answer made Gawain stunned for a long time, he had already prepared a lot of reasonable and euphemistic and polite remarks to deal with the missionary's chatter, including but not limited to "there is no money in the territory to maintain the church", "there is no money in the territory to support the priest", "you can buy the bricks and tiles of the church yourself", etc., but he didn't expect that this missionary who was suspected of being a gladiator turned pastor would just forget it...... That's it......

This big brother can't be an undercover agent of the Shadow Church to break into the Church of Light, right?

"That's it?" Even Amber couldn't help but say, "Don't plan to persuade again?" ”

"The Way of the Holy Light tells me that if I do good deeds, then the Holy Light will naturally shine in people's hearts, and if I don't do good deeds, then even if I say that my tongue will not work," the big man drew a emblem of the Holy Light Church on his chest with his hand, obviously his face was full of stubble and muscles, but he just piled up a holy appearance, "So it's okay if you're not interested, it's not too late to come to me when you're interested." ”

"That's a funny guy," Hetty shook his head incredulously, "and you're from the Midlands, aren't you?" How could the church in the plain of the Spirit send you to the Far South to preach? And they gave you a paperwork...... What about your retinue and bodyguards? ”

Now is no longer the beginning of the chaos of civilization, the various sects in the wilderness of the difficult running era, even the missionaries who travel around, is no longer the ascetic walking alone, especially from the rich plain of the Holy Spirit, the missionaries will basically bring a considerable number of retinues and guards in the world, so that kind of team is also called "mobile church", that is, a church has all kinds of armed personnel, servants, priests, But this Mr. Wright had walked here from the plain of the Holy Spirit with a tattered paperwork, not to mention his entourage, and he had earned his own money and food.

This trance gives the feeling of traveling through time and space, as if the missionary had come out of a barbaric age in the history books.

But Wright, after hearing this question, just smiled indifferently: "I went on the road alone, and the bishop gave me a paperwork to come to the south to preach, and I came, as for the retinue and guards...... I'm a little low-ranking priest, where do I get an entourage and a guard, and I don't need it. ”

As he spoke, he flashed his muscles: "Many paladins can't beat me, and many of my followers can't work as well as me, so what do I want them to do?" ”

Then he looked up and saw that a new batch of bricks had been sent to the site, so he stood up and patted the soil on his pants: "It seems that there is work to be done again, do you still have problems?" If it's okay, I'll help unload the bricks first. ”

Gawain's face was strange: "...... Be my guest. ”

Wright waved his hand: "Then I'll go." Oh, by the way, don't forget to help me pass on the paperwork to your lord, I need to get permission from my lord to start a church and serve a public mission. ”

Gao Wen was a little crying and laughing: "Don't worry, I will definitely transfer it." ”

Wheath nodded and turned to walk towards the construction site, but turned around again as soon as he took two steps away: "By the way, there was something I forgot to ask." ”

Even Hetty couldn't help but laugh: "Ask what?" ”

"Where do you go to eat after work?"

Hetty sighed: "...... Just follow the workers, and those who work have food to eat and be fed. ”

After the missionary had walked away completely, Amber muttered, "I thought the people from the Holy Light Church would be looking for trouble when they saw me, but why were they so stunned...... Kook. ”

"Don't be paranoid, no one knows who you are and what you're doing," Hetty glanced at Amber, then looked at Gawain, "Ancestor, do you want to allow this ...... 'missionary' to preach in the realm?" ”

"Observe for two days," Gao Wen said lightly, "you send a clerk, register his basic information, and then arrange a place for him to live according to the standards of skilled immigrants - arranged near the administrative district, and pay more attention to his movements." If there's nothing wrong with this person...... He was allowed to preach and operate within the limits of Cecil's laws. ”

Gawain himself had a discord with the belief in the gods, but he did not intend to prevent people from practicing religion in the territory - because religious activities are the "established facts" of this world, and magic is also part of the local productive forces, and eighty or ninety percent of the people in the territory themselves have beliefs, either the gods of abundance and the gods of light, or the gods of craftsmen, commerce, learning, warriors, etc., most of them are shallow believers, and a few are devout believers, Preventing a missionary from the Church of Light from operating in the territory is neither necessary nor pointless, and one is suspicious.

And as long as this strange Gengzhi missionary is free of suspicions and stains on his background, then his arrival is a good thing - Gawain still remembers what Veronica mentioned last time, and he believes that the holy princess is not as simple as casually mentioning it, and she will come back to him sooner or later, but if a small church is established on the territory that is recognized by the Church of the Light before that, then he has good reason to refuse the infiltration of the church from the royal capital.

A regional church founded by a wandering missionary with the financial support of a local lord was much easier to control than a church under the direct command of the Holy See.

Thinking about what he didn't have, Gawain returned to his tent.

Looking at this tent that he had lived in for several months, he also felt a little emotional.

It's really time to move out of here and move into a brick-built house.

At the very least, the new mansion he designed had a formal study, bedrooms, warehouses, and various laboratories, which would be much more convenient for both living and conducting magical research.

But I don't know why Amber is also interested in Gao Wen's ability to move into the new house as soon as possible, and last time Gao Wen asked her curiously, but the latter said a bunch of strange things, such as "I haven't entered the house through the window for a long time", "You don't even have a door in this tent that can be pryed", "What kind of aristocratic mansion is without a basement and treasure house", etc...... It's weird.

Gawain had to knock Amber's head around to correct her strange words, but it didn't seem to work.

Several reports on the expansion of the population and the new settlements of the territory were placed on the table, and Gawain sat down at his desk and went about his daily work.

With the inherent appeal of the ancient heroes and the de facto prestige of Gawain as a leader in protecting the people, the measures he promulgated were implemented very quickly in this land, and even the measures that planned the roads in the towns, built sewers before building houses, and banned defecation in the streets were difficult to promote in the context of the current era, and it was difficult to explain to the people, as if people did not really care about the purpose of these measures (even though Gawain had sent people to preach the meaning of each policy). But as long as the lord says it, it must be right.

However, Gawain knows that the efficiency of enforcement brought about by this kind of blind trust cannot be relied on for a long time, and it will inevitably be worn out in the process of promulgating one system and law after another, and there are only two ways to maintain this enforcement rate.

First, as many new systems and laws as possible can produce tangible benefits, or at least convince people that the improvement in their lives is driven by those systems and laws, so that they will be happy to follow the new laws.

Second, promote education so that the people know how to think and discern, so that they can truly understand what the lord is saying, and still support the laws and rules of the territory under this premise.

Article 2 will not only maintain the current implementation rate, but will also greatly improve the efficiency of every work in the territory.

But...... Where can I find a teacher? Especially in the Gawain program, it is even more difficult to find such teachers in order to carry out the education of extraordinary knowledge for the whole people.

Ordinary literate people may be hired with money, but those who are truly literate and can carry out a more high-end education are difficult to find, and they are unlikely to be willing to explain what runes and calculations are to a group of noisy "lowly poor" people, even if they are given money.

Maybe she should ask Jenny, she might know some of the most extraordinary professionals in high society...... In the spirit of thinking about change when you are poor, it should be easier for those mages who are dying of starvation to buy them......

At the same time, the storm was gradually dissipating in the far sea, far away on the eastern side of the continent.

The raging water element has returned to the atmosphere and oceans, and the energy accumulated in the atmosphere has been almost all spilled on the islands and reefs, tearing the entire island and reef apart, and now those residual energy is stabilizing with the water element, gradually returning to the embrace of nature.

The blood of the cultists stained the sea red, and the smell of blood attracted the predators of the sea, but the predators only roamed the periphery of the waters in fear, not daring to approach the place that still exuded a dangerous aura.

The Children of the Storm were unable to withstand the real storm, and they struggled to withstand the natural disasters caused by the Kraken army for a long, long time, but in the end they had to abandon this "miracle realm".

At the cost of nearly a third of their followers' lives, they forced their way out of the raging ocean and fled the place.

Now the reef is back in the hands of the Kraken.

There were still many huge and terrifying beasts roaming the sea, and the bodies that floated on the water, covered in carapace and bone spurs, and full of magical brilliance, were daunting, but soon the beasts sank into the water, and a moment later, some female figures floated up from the water.

They have beautiful faces, elegant and well-proportioned bodies, and eyes that are full of wisdom and agility like human beings, but their cheeks and arms are faintly covered with tiny scales, which are not terrible, but give people an unusual bewitching beauty, and in the process of churning the sea, the structure of the lower body of these women will occasionally turn out of the water - it is a long tail like a sea serpent, or a fish's tail.

There are even tentacles with suction cups like octopuses.

These intelligent creatures in the water looked at the islands and reefs left behind by the cultists' evacuation, but they had no interest in the so-called holy weapons and altars that the cultists were desperately guarding.

A kraken with long azure hair looked in the direction of the island, while another kraken floated up from the water and swam to the leader with long azure hair: "Those brain-sick humans have run, General Vanessa. ”

The Kraken, known as General Vanessa, frowned: "What an inexplicable creature, I clearly remember that they weren't so crazy hundreds of years ago, why can't they even communicate now......"

"Probably because they can't live in the sea, and their brains are suffocated when they live on land all day."

"Forget it, it doesn't matter," the Kraken General shook his head, "now that the brain-sick humans have run away, we can get back to work." ”

"Then ......," the young Kraken soldier said with an eager expression on his face, "Let's go down and continue digging for squid?" ”

The Kraken General laughed and nodded vigorously: "Well, keep digging for squid." ”

"Keep digging for squid!" "Dig the squid!" "Big squid!"

The Sirens cheered, and then one by one the waves rolled up, flicking their tails like sea snakes, sea fish, and octopuses, and rushed to the bottom of the sea to continue the work they had planned to carry out in this area—

Go to the deep sea, go to the seabed, and continue to dig the "big squid" that I don't know why it died underneath, and the corpse fragments spread a whole seabed, and I can't dig it up no matter how I dig it......
