Chapter 197: Give Me a Reason
As a territory next to the Duchy of Etro, the territory of the Hall is no less than that of the Duchy of Etro.
It's just that compared to the Duchy of Etro, which has a large number of people and abundant resources, most of the land in the Hall Territory is relatively poor, and there are only a few suitable places to live, so it can't be compared with the Duchy of Etro at all.
"Truth be told, Holy Son of Gray, I am the next member of the Hale family, Philippon Hale." Filimon suddenly said solemnly.
"Oh."
Although Gu Fan was a little surprised by Philimon's true identity, he still nodded flatly.
For a moment, Philimon, who was about to take Gu Fan by surprise, fell into embarrassment.
You must know that not to mention ordinary people, even those nobles with knighthoods, most of them will start to surprise and compliment him after hearing that he was born.
And Gray Mu in front of him was as if he was an ordinary person.
However, Philippon quickly cleaned up his mood again, as the next family of the Hall family, and the only heir, he was also extremely strict with the aristocratic education since he was a child, even if he disguised himself as an ordinary person during this time, his character and etiquette that have been deeply rooted in the bone marrow will not change.
"Isn't Grey Son curious what I'm here for?" Philimon's tone changed slightly, and he spoke like an elegant aristocrat.
Gu Fan said unsurprisingly: "In order to establish a branch church? ”
"Well, it seems that my little caution can't hide it from you, Son of Gray." Filimon smiled elegantly, without the slightest frustration, "I wonder what you think, Son Gray?" ”
"Give me a reason." Gu Fan said indifferently.
Filimon smiled, knowing that this matter was already in place today, "Holy Son Gray, as long as you choose to come to our Hall Territory first, we can not only fund the establishment of a branch church for the Church of Light, but also will not interfere in any way with your mission. ”
Philippon didn't say much, because he knew that these two were enough.
After all, it is difficult for any force to allow a church with strong cohesion to develop in its own territory without restrictions.
And he not only provided the Church of Light with the money to build the church, but also did not restrict the development of the other party in his own territory, without great courage, it is impossible to be like him.
"What do I need to do?" Gu Fan asked.
"All you need to do is send a certain number of regular pastors in each of the branches." Philippon's smile widened.
"Good!" Gu Fan agreed.
"Happy working together!" Philemon stood up.
"Happy working together!" Gu Fan stood up.
After watching Philemon walk out of the quiet room, a smile appeared from the corner of Gu Fan's mouth.
Light and Dark!
Theocracy and kingship!
From the moment he had the identity of a missionary, Gu Fan knew that he had entered a whirlpool, and there was no other way to live or die.
Even if Philippon had other calculations, he had to make this trip.
"Dillon, what do you think of this?"
Dillon walked out from the shadow of the wall behind Gu Fan, "Follow the Holy Son's orders." ”
Nodding, Gu Fan walked out of the ashram, found the nearest priest and said, "In three days, I will officially leave Lila Town." ”
Such a young priest seemed a little shocked when he heard the news, although he had long known that the Holy Son could not stay in this church forever, but he had a feeling in his heart that he could not explain the loss of the Holy Son, whom he admired the most.
"Yes, Son Gray."
Soon the news spread throughout the town, although the Church of Light already had many official priests who could perform divine arts, Gu Fan's position in the hearts of believers had never been replaced by anyone.
Especially after Gu Fan was given the title of Holy Son, as the spokesperson who walked the mortal world on behalf of the God of Light, he had an unparalleled status in the hearts of believers.
After learning the news, many believers flocked to the church, volunteering to follow Gu Fan's back, not for power or profit, but simply to protect the Holy Son.
And if it weren't for Dillon's suppression, those new-world guardian knights in the church would probably have been unable to hold back and want to follow Gu Fan.
They would rather have an accident themselves than have an accident with Gu Fan.
It was for that kind of follow-up speech, and Gu Fan clearly refused.
Although so many people follow and look very majestic, but not to mention being conspicuous, how can they pretend to be pigs and eat tigers?
And it is also an extremely troublesome thing to greet the life and diet of a large number of people, but it is better to travel lightly, as long as you and Dillon are not only fast, but you can also escape in time when you encounter a dangerous situation, and you will not be dragged down.
Three days later, the church door was crowded with people from several nearby towns, and the people were more and larger than the previous light celebrations.
Most of the people came because of Gu Fan's status as the Holy Son, but there were also many people who rushed over because of what Gu Fan had done before.
Since you can't follow, then at least you have to come and send them off.
After the door of the church opened, the crowd that had been whispering from time to time instantly quieted down, and the extremely crowded crowd also made way in front of Gu Fan.
At this time, Gu Fan was still wearing the well-made pure white priest's robe and stepped into the path.
He was followed by Dillon, who was in full body armor, and he carried a large backpack behind him.
The crowd continued from the church to the edge of Rila Town, and many people even cried for Gu Fan's departure, but they just couldn't hold back.
After saying goodbye to the crowd, Gu Fan and Dillon walked towards the meeting place agreed with Philemon.
On the way, out of the corner of Gu Fan's eyes, he looked at the backpack behind Dillon, and he might as well sigh.
For the luggage that Dillon carried, Gu Fan sometimes thought of the storage props that appeared in the virtual world.
Although he didn't have to carry these things, as his apostle, he was obviously wearing such a brave armor, but he was carrying a backpack that didn't match, which undoubtedly lowered Gu Fan's style.
But there were no storage props, and he had never heard of anything like this in this world, so Gu Fan could only helplessly let Dillon carry it.
When you get out of town, you can put it directly on Philippon's convoy.
It didn't contain much stuff, just a few changes of clothes and some books for the ministry.
Originally, it stands to reason that since he was going to follow Philemon to his family territory to open a branch church, Gu Fan should bring a few priests to set off with him at this time, which would be more convenient and faster.
However, Gu Fan chose himself and Dillon to investigate first, and after confirming that there was no problem, he would send some official priests over.
