096 Waiting for small-scale contact
Thanks to the good start of cooperation, Liu An and his entourage in the Gongglak Kingdom had all kinds of coats of arms stamped and signed a series of signatures within three days, and more than 100 documents, including all reincarnators and contractors, were sent to the Black Feather Legion garrison by hand.
With these things, Liu An and his entourage can enter and exit all countries on the mainland at will, without having to apply for a "passport" again, and without having to pay a poll tax when entering the city. Through the seal, Liu An found that the royal power of this continent has declined, and the church power is dominant, at least in the Kingdom of Gonggrak, dozens of various documents, only one of the royal coat of arms of Gonggrak, and almost all of the others are the official seals of various institutions of the church or the signatures of the heads of the people.
Mission 1: Join a faction and get a reward of 3000g.
I have also figured out what the courage point is, it is a kind of military merit awarded by the church, stored in a medal of courage, which can be exchanged for wealth in peacetime, and depends on how much merit has been made in wartime. This wartime does not refer to the war between humans and humans, but to the war between humans and aliens, such as evil creatures, monsters, demons, elves, dwarves and the like, or heretics.
Depending on the degree of cooperation between the kingdoms and the church, the things that can be redeemed vary slightly. For example, the Kingdom of Gongglak can exchange for titles, cultivation methods for flame fighting energy, enchantment services, magic equipment, etc., which can be exchanged in the church is similar, but one difference is that the church can exchange a large number of military materials, such as ordnance and armaments, which will not be provided by any kingdom.
In short, courage points are a very valuable thing.
Mountain eagles and alpacas naturally did their old jobs, wandering around the city for all kinds of entertainment and collecting intelligence. Since it is a killing scene, it has already reminded that "there is no punishment for the reincarnation of the hostile camp", there must be the existence of reincarnators in other blocks, although this continent is quite large, and the reincarnators in other blocks may not be put into the Kingdom of Gongghrak, but it is always good to prepare more.
Others train, rest, and play every day, waiting for the arrival of the demon tide.

There are two libraries in the main city of Pompeix, which belong to the church and the royal family respectively, and Liu An's "tourist" status just allows him to enter these two places and read general books, literature, history, biographies, etc., as for the secrets and cultivation experiences that record magic and fighting spirit, these two places also have them, but they are kept on a higher floor and require special permission to read.
But for Liu An, it is enough, he mainly wants to understand the history of the "thick legs" he holds.
Although history books are written by victors, if you want to hide something, you will inevitably expose something, this is the truth, the key depends on how you discover it.
This continent has been dominated by humans as early as 2000 years ago, in order of strength from high to low, elves, dwarves, goblins, halflings, gnomes, orcs and other races, have been driven to the wilderness, the reason seems to be that the human gods have broken the cow, and the guardian gods of these races have been overturned and fallen, so the decline of these races themselves is inevitable.
What kind of logic is this, you can't sleep in the cowshed 30 years ago? Although Liu An had already assumed that there was a "god" in this world, he still felt ridiculous when he saw this, but as he went deeper, he understood a little bit that this would be the case.
If a race develops a divine system, it means that it has basically abandoned the evolutionary direction of group civilization, or that religion hinders the development of science, such as Copernicus, such as Bruno. From these documents and materials, it can be seen that the patron saint of a race can greatly improve productivity and combat effectiveness, and the "god" can protect the farmland, and the wind and rain will be smooth and the yield will be high; "Gods" can protect warriors and improve their abilities to fight bravely. …,
So once the Patronus falls, it seems that the decline of the race is really inevitable, because the wisdom and courage that can resist the divine power have been emasculated by their own religion...... This is really the unpleasant retribution of the Heavenly Dao cycle, which rises because of "God" and declines because of "God".
People, sure enough, the most reliable is themselves.
Liu An thought mockingly.
After solving the external problems, human beings, or "gods", began to attack themselves. The heretics were purged or converted, and the headquarters of the Mage Guild was first "punished by God" and destroyed in the divine light, setting an example for the world, and then the Church of Nature, which was pushed down by the Holy Knights, and ninety percent of the Great Druids were killed in battle, and only a few of the Great Druids survived, leading the congregation to avoid the mountains and forests.
The "god" seems to have patronized the goddess of the forest, Merian, and I don't know what happened in the middle of the road, and then Merlian sent an oracle, and the forest church was merged into the Holy Church, and Merlian became the queen of the gods......
Lying in a groove, the fairy version of the harem text, because after Merian, the goddess of flowing water, Du Caofen, the goddess of ice and snow, and the goddess of flowers, Saldo, were patronized by the main god one after another, and then became the queen of the gods.
As for the disobedient god of the rock, the god of the rock, the god of the earth, the god of Duga, the god of wisdom, the god of wisdom, Mirihaus, the dwarf, and other 17 male gods with names and surnames are all ashes......
It's the same big battle of 800 rounds, but the ending is diametrically opposite, dear, do you understand the social reality?
Thus, the Holy Church had agricultural druids, church water mages, holy ice and snow mages, and flower priests......
There are really enough copies of "The Divine Lord Gods and Goddesses......
After the first and second war between humans and demons, the territory of the Church of Light covers almost the entire Anthropocene realm, except for some corner areas, etc., as if something has been discovered......
Land of the ShireRock God Territory: ...... In Sudamir alone, the total number of demon soldiers reached 5 million...... Besustan, the demon commander Midakoshuai's 3 million demon soldiers defeated the kingdom's main station corps "Rock Grip...... The total number of demon soldiers in the Shire exceeds 30 million......
Old Church Nation of the Sacred Eagle Country: ...... Cole? Lord Todd killed more than 23,000 demon soldiers in the territory of Cthun...... Viscount Jackson? Michaelson defeated 800 Demon Soldiers in Springtree Village...... Baron Lodifil killed the little demon in Kexia Town and led 1 demon soldier with 4,300 ...... A total of more than 300,000 demon soldiers were destroyed......
10 times the strength of the comparison, shady! Shady!
If it's just this data comparison, it can be said to be a coincidence, Liu An spent ten days statistically calculating the comparison of battle reports for the same period, and the results were all like this, to say that the Holy Lord didn't care about hell at all, he didn't believe it anyway.
Thinking of this, Liu An hurriedly investigated the relationship between Gongghlak and the church...... Rest assured, the Kingdom of Gonglak is a new kingdom supported by the Church after the fall of an unfortunate kingdom after the Second War of Man and Demon, and it has always been the attitude of the Church.
Damn, this unspoken rule is everywhere, you sister!

Because of the planning and presiding over the church's recent propaganda actions, and the favor of God, Akmund himself was bullish, not only raised the priesthood rank to 21, becoming the youngest bishop, but also in charge of some substantive work, and finally grasped the real power in his hands.
This made him excited for a long time, since the age of 13, he served the archbishop as an acolyte, and in the blink of an eye, he has been working hard for 15 years, and finally sees the hope of getting ahead.
On this day, he suddenly received a summons from Malfurion, asking him to meet him at the Black Feather Residence.
For Liu An, he is still very grateful and respectful, first of all, Liu An's strength, and secondly, if there is no Liu An, whether he can return safely from the Black Devil Rift is not to mention, not to mention that his current status is also Liu An's help in giving advice. …,
Therefore, as soon as he put down the work at hand and explained the relevant matters, he came to the station with two guards.
After the two sides met, Akmund asked respectfully, "I wonder what happened to Master Lu Dao looking for me?" ”
"Don't be so cautious, sit down and talk, you know I don't care about these etiquette" Liu An looked lazy and waved at him.
Akmund smiled slightly, and after getting along for a while, he really knew this habit of Liu An, but the character he had cultivated over the years in the church still made him maintain a cautious attitude and sit in the chair. "It is a virtue that our teachers have taught us for many years to maintain a humble and prudent mindset no matter what position we are in."
Liu An nodded, "How is it, looking at your complexion, you have been doing a good life recently, right?" Quite a few words"
Speaking of this, Akmund couldn't hide his color, "Thanks to the master's guidance, if it weren't for this, I don't know when I would have come out."
He said it bluntly, which is also the reason why Liu An became friendly with him, because he saw that this priest still retained a sincerity.
"I'm also worried that you will be proud and complacent when you are young, and your teacher will keep you by your side, which is good" Liu An nodded.
Akmund's heart moved, and he asked, "What does the master mean by this, I don't really understand?" ”
"Don't you understand? Your teacher still keeps you by his side, that is, he still has the intention of cultivating you, maybe he is cultivating his heir, and the position of the archbishop is still your share, if you are sent to a place to preside over the teaching affairs of a place, then your future will stop there, because far away from the center of power, your future achievements will be limited. ”
Akmund was startled, and suddenly remembered that his teacher had inadvertently asked him if he wanted to go to Peckershire to preside over the church there, and he had almost said yes at that time, if it had not been for his habitual refusal...... Thinking of this, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"It doesn't matter, since you are still sitting with me now, it means that you have accepted the test"
Akmund nodded, and although he remained calm, his heart thumped uncontrollably and violently, and it took a long time to calm down.
And Master Malfurion, too, kept silent at the right time, giving him time to calm down.
"Thank you for the suggestion, Master, otherwise I may not have thought of this problem in another 10 years with my own head."
"How far a person can go, in addition to talent, but also depends on how big your ambition is, you can have it now, then work hard to germinate ambition, only worthy of your ambition, can you have enough motivation to get to the position in the future!"
The previous analysis gave him hope, and then faintly pointed out his path, and Liu An's words took root in the young bishop's heart like poisonous weeds, and gave birth to a heart of trust and admiration.
The two talked for a while, and Liu An said after being the most embarrassed: "How about it, accompany me to the territory of the Bilp Knights."
Akmund nodded, but he still asked, "It's okay to go with you anywhere, but why do you want to go to him?" ”
"It is said that there are a lot of demon soldiers in his territory, because he is a new nobleman, your church colleagues don't pay much attention to his appeals, resulting in a lot of losses for him, your foundation is shallow, and the borderless land can become your own help," Liu An said with a more cunning expression: "Besides, according to my understanding of historical materials these days, every time there is a demonic disaster, there are always nobles who abandon the land and flee, and there are also nobles who resist to the end of the death and annihilation, if Bilp can survive and make a contribution, I can't say that this title needs to be mentioned to Lu Shang, which is a big help for you."
Akmund's heart pounded.
※I ※ is ※ evil ※ evil ※ ※ ※ ※
A day later, Liu An led a pair of centaurs and Bishop Akmund to the territory of the Bilp Knights.
Bilp started his career as a martial artist, preferring to be called a knight more than a viscount. His territory is located more than 200 kilometers south of Pompeix, outside the national border, in the mountains, but it is not afraid that it will be flooded by the demon army when the demon tide breaks out, because the main city of Pombex is blocked by the path of the demon army, otherwise there is no need to build a 50-meter wall there.
There is an underground iron mine in his territory, last month, there were sporadic demon boys from the depths of the crypt, but the mountain people were fierce, and they used the miners' hoes to kill the little devil with teeth and claws, but with the increase in number, the mountain people Rao is fierce, after all, it is not a combat unit, and gradually there were casualties, morale was lost, and they dispersed in a hurry, and when he received the news, the mine was also lost, and was occupied by hundreds of demon boys.
His cavalry is good at cavalry fighting, and mountain warfare is relatively sparse, although he can't recover the lost ground, but the little devil is also firmly blocked by him near the mine and can't come out.
Although the situation was deadlocked, it was getting worse and worse, because the number of demon children was increasing, and his side had no reinforcements, and he had lost several soldiers, and he asked the church for help, but no one received it, so he was overjoyed by the arrival of Akmund and his party.
Especially accompanied by Liu An and others, he almost fainted with happiness.
He doesn't know how fierce this uncle is, but the women around him are all fierce! Especially those monkey-like women Konoha Ninja, in his opinion, are simply the natural nemesis of the magic boy.
Needless to say, good food and drink are waiting.
Needless to say, the reincarnator on Liu An's side originally came with the purpose of fighting monsters and doing tasks, and Akmund also had the purpose of developing and helping, and the two parties almost hit it off with their concubines, and after resting for a night, they set off early the next morning, ready to go into the mountains to destroy demons.
It's just that Liu An habitually got up late, tossed for a long time, washed up and was just about to go on the road, Princess Victoria with her bodyguards, 24 royal knights and the court archmage Balamoya blocked the door.
During this time, including the royal family, all the aristocratic classes of Pombex were very curious about him, a master from the "other world" who often traveled to the plane, especially when he had two sword saints under him, n more than one suspected sword master, and a group of no more than 3 beauties with all the men together.
However, this guy shrank in the camp and became an otaku, but he didn't show his head, which made everyone feel like a mouse and a turtle couldn't start.
This time, when this guy finally led the crowd out, Princess Victoria received the news and rushed over almost before dawn, just to see his true face and continue to make friends with Sophie and Sommy.
Then, the eyeballs of Barromoa and the 24 royal knights behind her shattered, and the handsome young man with a young face and no more than seventeen years old at the head was Malfurion? Master of the Wind?
"Y-You're Malfurion? Fury, Master? Princess Victoria couldn't speak well, and pointed at Liu An very rudely.
"Ah, there's a problem?" Liu An thought it was funny.
"No way, how can you be so young?" Victoria screamed in self-denial, almost pulling her blonde hair.
She can't be blamed, it's too much of a contrast from what she imagined. And these days, I often see this "young man" in and out of the settlement, originally they only thought it was a servant, but they didn't think it was the main master.
"Oh, originally I also looked like a middle-aged uncle, but then I had an accident and became younger" Liu An shrugged his shoulders, to be honest, he really missed his fat figure at the beginning, and he was a little obscene, and he pushed the girl to really feel it, unlike now, several royal sisters pushed him in turn .........,
"Ahh What kind of accident can make people younger? "Women, both girls and women, are very sensitive to this issue, and Victoria's eyes are round, and she has no image of a princess.
"It's all said to be an accident, and I don't know what to do."
……
Since they had come here, the princess simply joined the team.
Walking on the road, the royal family looked at the strange and unfashionable T-shirt and big pants + slippers in front of them, "Malfurion? "Angry Wind", although the people accompanying him are the same, but they always feel a little weird.
It can't be equated with a great power that is strong enough to travel in the plane.
There are no mana fluctuations, not to mention, and there is not even a magic item on his body.
But soon there will be a chance to test, and he will soon be engaged in a battle with the demon soldiers, and when the time comes, he will be able to see if this person is hiding or is really an ordinary person.
Thinking of this, Princess Victoria was eager to fly to the mine immediately.
Liu An quietly opened his spiritual power at this time, and the court mage Balamoya behind him looked around with some doubts.
It seems that he can't feel the mental power very clearly?
Liu An pulled all his own people into the spiritual network, and the two teams of female ninjas understood, swished away from the team, and jumped into the jungle on both sides to protect the flanks. The trees here are also very tall, allowing them to jump freely on them.
"What, it's here?" Princess Victoria asked with some excitement.
"No, Your Highness Princess, there is still some way to go," replied Bilp. (……,
