Chapter 47: The Battle of the Lords

Suren's priesthood is the moon, the stars, navigation, prophecy, exploration.

The stars of the world of Orende are different from the universe in which the Earth is located, and they are mysterious celestial bodies with powerful magical energy, and they are mainly distributed within the astral plane.

The astral plane, on the other hand, is the barrier that separates the main plane from the outer planes. It is precisely because of the protection of the astral plane that the main plane can be protected from direct intervention by the gods, or from the demons of the abyss. It also effectively prevents large-scale direct clashes between the different factions of the outer plane.

When the gods fall, they too fall into the astral plane. The shattered body turned into a meteorite floating in the astral plane.

Therefore, Suren decided to use the moon in his control as the core server and the stars as the network nodes to build a huge magical network that can cover all planes of Orlund.

But this magic network is relatively high-end, and only people with magical powers have the ability to link to this network. It can't be a civilian-grade thing like Earth.

At this point, it was Chariel's turn to act, and she needed to build an internal LAN of the main plane on top of the magical network built by Suren.

This LAN can use a magical creature as a relay. The barrier to entry for the use of the magic network has been further lowered, and you can connect to this secondary network by purchasing special magic items. Of course, the function of the LAN will be different from that of the main magic network.

And this magical creature is naturally a cat.

The cats in the world of Orlund are also extraordinary, there are no cats in this world, and this group of cold creatures was brought by Chariel from her homeland.

When these alien cats descended into this magical world, they didn't know what happened, but they evolved from ordinary animals to magical creatures, and had some rudimentary intelligence.

The average magic cat has the intelligence of a 3 to 5-year-old child. They are always told that Charil is like their mother, so they can generate the power of faith, so that Charil has the main priesthood of cats, so in addition to the stray lady, she will also be revered as the mother of cats.

And the high-level magic cat can have the intelligence of a child between the ages of 7 and 0. Therefore, the mages of the Orende plane will give priority to cats when choosing magic pets. When cats become the mage's pets, their intelligence will increase even more.

Mages like to choose cats, not only because they are smarter and can help them better, but more importantly, because they have a backstage. In this world where there are gods three feet up, there is a huge gap between those who are covered by gods and those who are not.

Chen Jian himself also deeply understands this. Although most of the time it is not of much use.

Orende's magic cats are mavericks themselves, and like the gods who shelter them, they like to wander around. This is a natural moving hotspot.

When these cats become part of the local area network, the closer you are to the cats, the better the network signal will naturally be. This obvious benefit is put there, and it is believed that in addition to mages, more people will begin to like cats and keep cats in the future. Then love the house and the belief of the god of the cat and the router.

That's right, this is Chen Jian's new priesthood for Chariel's brain. In the future, Magic Cat will be equivalent to a multi-functional magic router.

Then Charil naturally became the god of routers, and addiction to the Internet became a kind of job, even if she hung up on the Internet to watch anime all day long, and no one would say that she was not doing her job, and the new priesthood would naturally not have a crisis of dissipation.

It's just perfect.

For the big project of the magic network, it is certainly not something that can be completed overnight, but the preliminary plan has been decided.

Chen Jian only needs to provide as many materials as possible for the reference of several bigwigs on the earth, and provide some ideas and ideas. In order to allow the alpha system to directly access the Internet on the earth, Chen Jian worked hard to study various network communication protocols and network architectures. Now it comes in handy to apply what you have learned.

The Moon God Department is in full swing with a great plan that can be said to determine the future of the God Department. Chen Jian also returned to the main plane after the meeting for the time being, and had a headache for the second thing, the territorial issue.

An important reason why Chen Jian was able to quickly gain a foothold in Yier Village was that Yier Village was a default extralegal place. The previous lord, Baron Vinoa, didn't want to bother with this place that had anything to do with Dave.

Therefore, Chen Jian started a sect here, and naturally no one cared about it.

But in fact, in the human countries, the lord has the right to manage the mission power in his own territory, except for the unruly cult of evil gods, most of the churches of good gods need to obtain the consent of the local lord if they want to establish a church or temple in a certain place. Otherwise, the lord has the right to expel the pastors sent by the church to preach from the territory.

This time, Chen Jian expanded his power in the Barony of Vinoa, and the reason for accepting believers was also because Baron Vinoa's family was killed by the orcs and died neatly.

For a time, there was a vacuum of secular power in the Barony of Vinoa. Chen Jian preached as much as he wanted, and inspired believers as he wanted, and no one cared at all.

However, with the retreat of the orc troops, the situation in the northwest gradually stabilized, especially Chen Blade's transportation and disaster relief, which accelerated the stability of the people's situation.

So the nobles, who had been worried about when the orcs would make a comeback, began to shift their energy back to the internal struggle.

In this war, the nobles who killed the whole family were not only Baron Vinoa, the baron had a strong castle and could not stop the orcs, not to mention those knights and minor nobles who did not even have a castle.

The northwest is poor, some viscounts are poor and can't afford to build a castle, some of them run early, or hide deep, although these nobles can't afford to build a castle, but the ability to build a secret passage is not small, many nobles rely on the secret passage or secret room under the house to escape a catastrophe.

But the big nobles above the earl are basically fine, and the orcs are also picking soft persimmons, and they all avoid the big cities with strong cities. After all, this surprise attack is deep into the enemy's territory, and once the offensive is blocked and loses the flexibility to come and go like the wind, it is likely to be counter-surrounded by human forces.

So it was the middle and lower class of the petty nobles who suffered heavy casualties. If there are still legal heirs of these dead nobles who survive, then the titles and territories of the nobles can continue, and if a family like Baron Vinoa is martyred, the territory will be reclaimed and redistributed by his feudal lord.

Baron Vinoa's feudal lord is the Count of France, Chen Jian has heard the rumors, for the sake of Baron Vinoa's piece of fat, many nobles have gone to France City to run relations, and those who can't be beaten by eight poles claim to be a distant relative of Baron Vinoa's blood thicker than water.

This is not good news for Chen Jian, who has become the de facto controller of this land.

More than seventy percent of the population of the entire barony's one town and six villages are currently gathered in Yir Village, after all, if these survivors return to their hometowns with nothing food and clothing, and their houses burned down, they will not be able to survive this cold winter.

And under the influence of Chen Blade's sugar-coated cannonballs that send food and warmth, and the delicacies that people can't forget after eating once, half of these civilians have converted to the god of food. Most of the remaining half are still wobbly. Chen Jian is confident that in the spring money, eighty percent of the people can become believers in the god of food.

In such a situation, how could he tolerate a sudden parachute in a lord to dictate him.

So he decided to make a trip to Fran to try to turn the Barony of Vinoa into a religious dominion of the Gourmet Order. Even if this can't be done, then at least a nobleman who can get along with him will become a new lord.
