Chapter 18: A Threat from the Castle
......
It has been more than a year since he traveled to the lonely kingdom of God and said goodbye to a large number of small films and some art films he collected.
For Wu Hui, it was simply torment.
If it weren't for the fact that he only had a soul and no body, Wu Hui estimated that he would have collapsed long ago.
Anyway, it's your own holy daughter, so it's nothing to take a few looks, right?
What's more, as long as he Wu Hui gives an order, the Holy Maiden Catherina doesn't let her do whatever she wants?
The distracting thoughts in his consciousness filled Wu Hui's soul.
For a while, Wu Hui seemed to have two villains fighting in his mind.
"I'm a god of light, wouldn't it be too embarrassing to do this kind of thing?"
"It's okay, I'm just a layman, and I'm not the one I want to be the god of light?"
"I don't even have a body now, what's the point of just looking at beautiful women?
Sadly, Wu Hui was excited, as if he had been poured a basin of cold water.
yes, I don't even have a physical body, what should I do if I look at a ghost beauty, what if I see a fire? I can't even do that......
Crafting the most ordinary human body also costs 1 point of divine power. And Wu Hui is now a god of light, but he is so poor that he doesn't even have a single point of divine power.
Forget it, it hurts self-esteem.
Don't look at it, don't look at it.
It's better to wait until you have a physical body to think about this.
Wu Hui shook his spirits and put aside those messy thoughts.
Continue to experience the efficacy of the Eye of God.
The perspective continues to pull up.
The figures of Catherina and Langdon became smaller and smaller in his eyes, and the range of what he could see became wider and wider.
Soon, his perspective was stretched to the limit, and the whole person seemed to rise into the sky, with heavy clouds floating around him, and the sun shining on the clouds, half brilliant gold, half pure white, as if in a fantasy world.
Look down.
The Abbey of St. Luan was at his feet, its smoky grey façade mottled with a sense of historical obsolescence, but still sacred and solemn, standing like a fortress in the wilderness.
Behind the monastery, there are rolling hills. Although these hills are not high, the vegetation is lush enough, and at a glance, they are full of greenery, and you can faintly hear the howls of demonic beasts in the mountains and forests.
The place where Wu Hui first came may have been somewhere in this mountain forest.
In front of the monastery is a plain with scattered villages, scattered with irregular fields and herds of cattle and sheep moving slowly like clouds.
The faith passages in these villages are not very dense, but there are quite a few of them, and they are obviously new believers developed by Catherina and them in the past few days.
Further afield, there is a small town.
There are even fewer faith passages in the town, only a few dozen of them, but it is enough for Wu Hui to see the situation in the town clearly.
The town is not big, only about seven or eight hundred households. The streets inside the town are vertical and horizontal, and from the perspective of Wu Hui's modern people, the streets are a little too narrow, and the pedestrians are sparse, and they are not prosperous at all.
But this is already the most prosperous place within a radius of dozens of miles.
This town should be the town of Gru that Catherina and others mentioned when they prayed.
Wu Hui sighed in his heart about the backwardness of this world, and looked farther away.
A little further past the town is a town edge where a castle stands.
This castle does not have the appearance of the aristocratic castle in Wu Hui's imagination at all, it is neither golden nor majestic, it is completely like a small military fortress, and the stone exterior wall is mottled, and there are traces of time everywhere.
At the entrance of the castle, there is even a deep ditch dug, and above the ditch there is a drawbridge that can be raised and lowered, and the interior of the castle can only be accessed through the drawbridge.
If you look at it this way, you can see that the defense of this castle must be good.
This castle should be the castle of Baron Gangdeyar, the lord of Gru Town, Gruburg.
Wu Hui took a visual look at it when he was looking down from a high altitude and found that the distance between the castle and the town was very close.
From the castle, you can ride a horse and make a sprint straight to the town. At this distance, you can bend your bow and arrow on the terrace of the castle and shoot the arrow directly into the town.
He figured it out and thought it might be a strategic ploy.
Gru Town is within the attack range of Gru Fort, so if you want to occupy Gru Town, you must first capture Gru Fort, otherwise you will not be able to hold Gru Town if you occupy it.
That's a good idea~
Wu Hui was very interested in the internal structure of the castle, but unfortunately he did not feel the passage of faith in the castle, so he could only regretfully stop outside the castle gate.
As for the farther back of the castle, there was also no faith passage, and he couldn't get through it either.
That's the downside of the Eye of God.
There must be a place for believers in order to transmit those instant messages through the faith channels of believers.
Where there are no believers, there is no way for the Eye of God to peek.
However, he did not regret it.
After all, the development and operation of the business has just begun.
Catherina and the others, even if they were capable, were only a few people, and it was beyond his expectations that they could develop more than a hundred new believers in Gru Town in just a few days, and he couldn't ask for more.
In the future, when the number of his followers increases, he will have more places to go.
At that time, the world is so big, where will he go?
Naturally, there is no need to be as aggrieved as now~
He didn't dwell on the places that he couldn't get through, but began to wander around the town, the village, flying into the sky and walking through the clouds, overlooking the village and the town of Gru at his feet, and then falling to the ground to observe the daily life of the common people with relish, and seeing everything was very fresh.
He is from Earth, and all his knowledge of this plane comes from the trivial and scattered memories of the old God of Light, although he knows a lot, but there is no sense of reality. Moreover, the old god of light obviously didn't care about how the believers lived, and Wu Hui didn't find any details of the believers' lives in his memory.
Now that he saw this, he realized that the ignorance and backwardness of this place were far beyond his imagination.
Not to mention anything else, the feces that could be seen everywhere on the streets alone made him feel incredible. Forget about horse dung and cow dung, the key is human dung.
He even saw someone defecating on the street, and everyone around him was used to it, which simply refreshed his three views.
To be honest, when he first landed on the street, he almost fainted from the smell. Let him think about whether to improve the magic of "God's Eye" and make a functional "plug-in" to at least filter out the smell or something.
At the same time, he is also very glad, fortunately he is not in the real Netherworld, but just experiencing holographic projection, otherwise he will be disgusted for at least a long time if he steps on this foot.
And there are many, many things like this to refresh the three views.
However, even so, Wu Hui's wandering spirit is still very strong. He has been holding back in the kingdom of God for too long, and he can't stop playing this game.
Before you know it, the sun is already in the west, and the sky is getting darker.
Candles had been lit in the castle, and the flickering light of the candles came through the small windows. The townsfolk were not as extravagant as the Baron of Gruburg, the herdsmen drove the cattle and sheep back to the pen early, and the craftsmen hurried to work at the last of their time, or they would have to rest when the last rays of the sun set, and they were reluctant to light candles.
At this time, Wu Hui's freshness gradually passed, he pulled his perspective to the sky, and was about to cut off the "Eye of God" and keep some divine power to continue playing tomorrow.
Suddenly.
His heart jumped, and he "clicked", keenly aware that something was wrong.
