Chapter 490: The Hand of Punishment
In the early morning after about three days of Earth time, Qin Xiaoxia was finally ready to go down the tower.
Doudou seemed to be guarding the door day and night, and when he saw the door "click" open, he jumped out from no corner directly.
"Big cousin!!Are you playing with the projection of the missing body again, and you are playing the game of borrowing the body? Is there anything special about this world? What kind of creature is it? Female and male? Tall and short? Can you ...... your hair?"
After all, Doudou knew that the eldest cousin was going to investigate a place suspected to be a new world this time, and the new world always aroused more curiosity than the known world.
Although Qin Xiaoxia knew most of Doudou's thoughts, sometimes this little guy's brain circuit contained a lot of Qingqi thoughts.
"Doudou, except for a few existences such as high-ranking goblins, not everyone's hair is useful, and you should know very well. ”
As he spoke, he walked downstairs, and Doudou followed behind.
"But this time it's different, and even though it doesn't seem like a high-level new world, there are some things that I have to be cautious about. ”
Qin Xiaoxia went downstairs not because he had enough of understanding that world, nor because he was hungry and tired, although he did want to satisfy his appetite, but the bigger reason was that he wanted to re-explore the possibility of the existence of the so-called "gods".
After all, what I have seen in the New World in just a few days is enough to show that there is a religion with a very exaggerated number of followers.
If it was on Earth, Qin Xiaoxia could not take it seriously, but after all, it was another world, and although the Void Plane and the Universe Level were similar in many ways, there were actually more differences.
Downstairs, Qin Xiaoxia first informed the Red Banshee on the sea to come back, followed by Ji Li'an in the deserted garden world, and then asked the person in charge of the Dawn Dossier Management Office to help find valuable information about the "gods".
Originally, Qin Xiaoxia also wanted to pull the Demon Eye up, but considering that in the heart of the Demon Eye, the true body of the Sage Lord was originally a god, and it seemed a little inappropriate to ask it about the god again.
Gillian came back very quickly, and in less than a minute, he stepped out of the enlarged magic mirror, leaving behind the envious eyes of the wasteland world.
The Red Banshee, on the other hand, was a little slow at sea, so she arrived at the nearest secret realm at the bottom of the sea at about noon, and then returned to the guild headquarters through the secret realm ring technique.
Mu Mu and Ji Lian didn't share lunch, and the headquarters only had four mouths, but these guys still need to make a big deal to eat.
This time, Su Su was not there, so naturally there was no sumptuous private food to eat, so as usual, except for steaming several pots of rice, the rest were all cooked food and some canned food purchased outside.
After feasting, still in the Secret Realm Demonized Botanical Garden outside, Qin Xiaoxia held a private discussion meeting, and the topic was about the possibility of believing in gods.
However, even Gillian is not very clear about this, although as an ancient species, it has been worshipped as a god in memory, but Gillian does not feel any power of faith, and Gillian never takes the so-called believers seriously.
In that world, Gilian had slept in a lofty mountain valley, and of course, for ordinary beings, a sleep of the ancient species was possible from a few years to a few decades.
In his sleep, some "little bits" brought some "sacrifices" to the valley where Gillian slept to sacrifice the "gods", rapping and singing a lot, but they were slapped to death by the annoyed Gillian.
Since then, it has slept cleanly.
The Red Banshee made a possible guess.
There are countless creatures in this void with magical natural abilities, and even elves with wish abilities such as tricksters and elves exist, and there may not be a special kind of creature that can borrow the "trust and worship" of others, or similar spiritual powers.
Strictly speaking, if Doudou's ability is strong enough to a certain extent, it is almost impossible to say that he is not a true god.
This is different from Qin Xiaoxi's previous considerations, and the probability seems to be greater.
It may not be true that there is a belief in a god, but there may be beings with special talents.
Of course, all this discussion meeting can do is to provide ideas, Qin Xiaoxia found that even if it was originally a casual matter, there were questions in the in-depth discussion, and he was more cautious about the mentality of the new world.
I slept in my room that night, and the next morning, Qin Xiaoxia was "autistic" again.
。。。
With the projection of the mind, the body of thought reappeared in that aristocratic family.
After the previous few days, he already had a basic understanding that this family was the city lord of this city, but it was two systems of the church that burned Akantisen.
It's just that now, whether it is the merchant side or the aristocratic side, Qin Xiaoxia does not dare to show up easily.
Because even though both sides have a lot of criticism about the church, their own belief in the "Most High God" exists, from some spontaneous prayers to some taboos.
In line with the principle of caution and no big mistakes, it is better to observe and observe.
As for the church, he would not easily contact those priests and bishops, after all, strictly speaking, some of them, even if they are greedy, should essentially be "the closest people to God".
He really hoped that the so-called bishop would give away some crystal accessories, but unfortunately the goods were a greedy guy who kept all seven of them for himself and played with them every day, at least for the time being, and he didn't see any plans to give them away.
At this moment, it was already the afternoon in Nolan City, and it was very rare for Qin Xiaoxia to find that he did not appear in Brantey's room, but in a beast cart.
Brantey was sitting in the carriage looking at the "Signature Book".
There is no papermaking in this world, but there is a cloth process, and the main material of the books used to record the text is cloth.
The silk cloth book is a kind of book formed after fixing the text on the back of the cloth with a wooden skewer, sewing and fixing it with silk thread, and then writing words on the front of the cloth.
The former resembles an advanced version of bamboo slips, and the latter resembles a rudimentary version of modern books.
The wooden sticks are fixed to make it easier to read, and the cloth can record more text.
Qin Xiaoxia is still quite interested in this kind of book, but he can't understand what is written on it.
Brantey should have gone out this time, and deliberately brought this crystal accessory, judging from the noisy hooves and wheels outside the beast cart, the team should be relatively large.
Sure enough, when I went outside the car, a convoy of hundreds of members was moving forward on the road, and the location was wild, and there was a dirt road full of wheel prints.
Outside, the commander of the guard rode a well-built camel with a head more like a camel to the Brantemon cart.
"Young Lord Brantey, the Vision of the God of Light has begun to move away from the sky, and it is time to set up camp. ”
The Eye of the God of Light refers to the Shining Star of this world, which Qin Xiaoxia scoffed at, he knew enough about that thing, it could not be the eye of the God of Light.
"Yes, stop the convoy and get ready to set up camp. ”
No matter how young Brantey is, after all, he is the highest status in the team, and he still has to give orders.
The whole team chose a relatively flat place on the side of the road to camp, because there were too many cavalry accompanying them, it was unrealistic to want to surround everyone with beast carts like the previous caravan, so the beast carts just found a suitable place to stop in the center, and around them were seven or eight fire pits for burning firewood at night with stones.
Leveling the field, building fire pits, chopping tree branches, and building tarpaulin racks and pot racks......
Hundreds of people were busy for half an hour, and the entire camp was already established.
Qin Xiaoxia didn't feel bored, looking at them busy with their work, they felt like watching a wilderness survival show, it was still a real ancient version.
It was getting dark in the other world, and before I knew it, a bonfire had been lit in the camp, and on each of them was a pot with broth boiling in it.
Brantey and his entourage gathered around the fire and chatted.
"Stop!
The shouting of the sentinels in the distance alarmed everyone, and Brantey stood up with him, leaning outside with his weapons as the Captain of the Guard and the soldiers beside him.
Two dirty, bloodstained men were outside the camp with pitiful faces.
"Please save us, my lord, our convoy was confronted by robbers a few days ago, and they have been hunting and killing those of us who have fled in the past few days......"
The commander of the guard looked at the two guys vigilantly and motioned for the two soldiers to search their bodies.
After some examination, the fractures on their bodies were real, as were several deep wounds, and the yellow muscles on their faces looked like they had experienced hunger for several days, and the panic and sweat did not seem to be fake.
Although the Commander reminds Blantai that there is still a certain risk and that they can be ignored, Blantai has also done his homework.
The robber groups active in this wilderness are at most small groups of ten or twenty people, and the number will not be large, even if they all add up, they cannot be the opponents of their team, and the robbers are all bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and the caravans with many guards generally dare not go up, let alone their fully armed regular army.
So they still took in the two of them, but they also asked everyone to be vigilant, and also let the soldiers who knew a little medical skills accompany them to bone-graft and rub medicine to heal their wounds.
It was much warmer in front of the campfire at night than in the wilderness, and the two hungry guys devoured the black bun cake on the boiling broth, and if it wasn't too hot, it was estimated that the soup in the wooden bowl would disappear in a second.
"Hmm... Thanks... Tied in... Delicious... Gollum, thank you so much!!"
The two of them stuffed their mouths with something and kept thanking each other, which Blantai found very amusing.
He was born in a family with no worries about food and clothing, and Nolan City is relatively stable under the family governance, and he has hardly seen this way of eating up close.
"Tell me more about the bandits, and how did you escape?"
The taller one swallowed a mouthful of soup and took a breath.
"It's horrible, they..."
"Poof~"
Brantey only felt a heat on his face, his vision was blurred by the blood splatter, and when he looked again, the slightly taller man had a short sword stuck in his head.
"Ah!!h!!!!!!h
"噌" "噌" "噌" ......
The surrounding soldiers, including Brantey, everyone who was left with the obvious frightened madness drew their weapons and pointed them outside.
"Step" "Step" "Step" "Step" "Step" ......
A dark figure approached the camp from a distance, and some of the soldiers on the side had already drawn their bows and arrows and were ready to shoot.
"Light is not only in the heavens, but also in the heart, and whoever blasphemes the Most High will surely fall into hell......
The visitor was dressed in black leather armor, with a cloak to protect him from the elements, a sword hanging from his side, a bow and arrow and a quiver behind his back, a thin chain and a short axe around his waist, and a number of other pockets hanging and various small objects.
The back of the cloak bears the mark of the Most High God of Light, the front of the armor, the scabbard of the weapon, and even every arrow.
He slowly approached Brantey's team, as if blind to the hundred soldiers.
"Your Excellency, the people around you are despicable villains, who have committed murder, rape, fraud and many other crimes, and on behalf of the Supreme God, we pronounce the death penalty!"
As he got closer, the sword at his waist was slowly held in his left hand, and the firelight gradually illuminated his face with a rain hat.
"Young master, this is... Paladin of Light, don't act rashly!"
As the Commander spoke, Blantai only felt that the person in front of him suddenly accelerated, and the moment the guards around him turned around, the sword in his hand was already stuck in the chest of the survivor hiding behind them.
"You..."
Brantey wanted to say something but didn't.
The paladin ignored the gaze around him, and instead knelt down on one knee beside the two corpses, pulling out the dagger from the head of one of them.
Very solemnly, he put the long and short swords into the sheath, then slid his right hand behind his neck to his chest and then flipped the flat sticker, bowed his head and whispered a prayer to the corpse.
"O wicked ones, may you look in hell to the light of my Lord!"
The Captain of the Guards frowned and put his sword away.
"You're Leyt Solo... The famous hand of punishment?"
The paladin stood up after praying, nodded slightly at the Archon, and then looked at Blantai.
"Your Excellency, you have a kind heart, but your ability to distinguish right from wrong still needs to be exercised, if there are more people like you among the nobles, may God guide you, disturb!"
At the end of the sentence, there was no mud or water, as if he had come suddenly, and the paladin walked into the darkness alone, not knowing where his mount was parked.
Ignoring the thoughts and movements of the people in the camp, Qin Xiaoxia's longing body on the side followed the comer for a long time, until he got on his mount and left, and then stood in the darkness with squinted eyes.
The strength shown by this person just now was overwhelming, and at the moment of his outburst, a strange energy resonance appeared and disappeared in him.
'It's not just 'no demons' here, things are getting interesting!'
For some reason, it seems that this encounter gave Qin Xiaoxia an indescribable feeling.
