Bill's refusal: In Talos's anticipation, the status of the priest of the goddess of wealth determined that his way of thinking and acting could not be on the same channel as the priest of the god of knights and order.

The priesthood is the key to why a deity is a deity, and it directly determines the teachings and belief groups of a deity.

Taking Bill's goddess of wealth as an example, aside from those false believers who believe in multiple gods, pan-believers who hope to make a fortune one day, there are three main groups of her faith, merchants, traders, and wealthy people, all of whom are closely related to her priesthood [wealth] and [commercial trade].

It is not difficult to understand why the teachings of the goddess of wealth advocate free trade, eliminate barriers to international trade, vigorously develop the deposit and transfer business of the magic network, and believe that business is the best way to get rich.

It is natural that thieves, thieves and robbers who obtain wealth through theft, robbery and other illegal means have become the most hated and disgusted group of the Goddess of Fortune Church.

Correspondingly, in the outer plane, the god of thieves who holds the two priesthoods of [Thief] and [Steal] is the mortal enemy of the goddess of wealth.

All of this determines that a priest like Bill is very good at investing and trading in addition to spreading the faith, and is willing to lobbied business ministers, tax collectors, and other business officials to improve the overall business environment, promote the orderly development of the market, or find treasures to please the goddess of wealth.

The appearance of the undead creature rot ghoul did surprise and anxiety Bill, so he chose to report the situation to the church as soon as possible and instructed the two priests to purify the undead creatures.

But to use a group of human mercenaries, or to go a step further and invite Talos to join forces to destroy the giant shark rotting ghouls in the sea, is obviously not in line with the behavior of a priest of the Goddess of Wealth.

Compared with Bill's less strong determination to purify the undead creatures and his attitude of judging the situation, the priests of the Temple of Order and Knight are much more resolute, and they must go up if they have the conditions, and they must go if they do not have the conditions to forcibly recruit professionals.

Only four men dared to ignore Talos' forcible recruitment of human mercenaries on the Garon, not by sheer force, but by the prestige and glory of the powerful divine order and the god of knights.

Just like in previous lives, a certain Shu Huang, who to some extent represents the state's violent apparatus, can enter a building and arrest a group of people after obtaining approval – not a question of numbers, but a question of whether they dare to resist.

This is the first contradiction between the two sides, and as for the second contradiction, Bill is in the midst of a treasure hunt related to whether he can be promoted to the third rank and obtain the title of bishop in a short period of time, and he is in a critical period.

Although the human mercenaries are not as strong as the Black Sea Knights, they are also a help, and they will change their minds because of the simple words of the priest of the Order and the Knight Temple.

Probably not expecting Bill, who was also in the priest's camp, to refuse him so simply, the middle-aged priest's face was a little ugly, and he looked at the second-order priest very carefully and persuaded him a second time.

"Necromancers are heretics and living creatures are evil, and their existence is a mistake that should not have been in Sainz. This is the agreement and rule set by the gods at the beginning, and no one can break it. As a servant of God, are you going to ignore the giant shark carrion ghoul of the sea and be ashamed of your faith?"

This sentence is a bit serious, as we all know that the power of the clergy comes from the gods, and it is faith that supports the transmission of power between the priest and the gods.

Once the faith is shattered, the power bestowed by the gods will slowly weaken until they disappear, and they will become an ordinary person who can no longer use divine magic.

"I knew very well what I was doing, in fact I had already made a detailed debriefing to headquarters when I encountered the first carrion ghoul. Wait, there's no such thing as you. ”

Very rarely, Bill was particularly tough: "Secondly, I follow the teachings of the goddess of wealth, in terms of the cognition of faith, please believe me, I will never be less than you." ”

Seeing that he couldn't convince Bill as an ally, the plan to forcibly recruit human mercenaries was aborted, and he was sarcastically ridiculed by the other party, the middle-aged priest's face was not very good, but because of the strength of the other party, he could only say stupidly: "I understand, but what happened today may be told to the Archbishop of your sect Borg." ”

Not surprisingly, the middle-aged priest received a sneer from Talos and Bill.

This is indeed a joke for Bill, once the treasure hunt is successful, he will receive the title of bishop - the success of the ceremony itself is regarded as the goddess's recognition of him - and officially enter the upper echelons of the church, and Matt can not be slandered by an outsider.

As for Talos, as long as he doesn't openly violate the rules set by the gods, although he may violate one of the most crucial ones in the near future, the Temple of Order and Knights can't do anything to him.

You must know that one of the most important links in the practice of the faith of this group of priests and knights who believe in order and knighthood is to defend and follow the order, and if they all openly violate the order and attack Talos, then who is expected to believe in the god of order and knights.

"I think I see what you mean, well, so can I know where you're going on this voyage?" the middle-aged priest set his eyes on Talos.

"I regret to inform you that no. Without waiting for the middle-aged priest to react otherwise, Talos continued, "I beg your pardon for not being able to travel with you because of the rudeness of a knight who has tarnished my personality. ”

Naga gestured to the reef, which was still some distance away from the Garon, and made a gesture of please: "Just assume that nothing happened just now, it's a misunderstanding." ”

"No, you can't-"

"Of course I can!" Talos rudely interrupted the middle-aged priest and snapped his tail on the deck, "I'm Talos Nepton, Nepton, the Black Sea Lord of the Naga Kingdom, the captain of the Garon, and I'm the master here!"

Naga faded the last shred of friendliness and became extremely tough, thanking the young knight for a vivid lesson in his words, making him realize that he had been too cautious under the influence of his past "law-keeping".

But it is not necessary.

As the second in line to the throne of the Black Sea Lord, a magical nobleman whose parents are both master-level professionals, he should have been flying high a long time ago, what are the clerics of the four orders and the knight temple?

"I fear the gods, but that doesn't mean I need to tolerate your rudeness. ”

"Naga, pay attention to your words, are you doubting our adherence to order?" In the distance, an old voice came from the sky.
