Chapter 25: Future Plans
Ferrers was gone, leaving only a messy empty wine glass on the table, and two men with red cheeks who had drunk. After Ferrers left, the two drank the remaining strong ale glass after glass, but remained silent in the process.
The three ladies did not speak from beginning to end, and when Ferrers was there, the three of them gave all the decision-making power and the right to talk to Shure, and even when it came to her mother Anika, Moria's voice was silent, and her usual foolish appearance was almost like two people. It is clear that they have shown absolute trust in Shure with their actions, believing that he will handle everything well, and even believe that he can handle it better than Minnie and Orana.
It is true that when Fellers left, although he didn't make any promises, he just left a sentence to go back and discuss with Calvin and several churches that had already determined the covenant, and to return to the gods, and then he could make a decision, so he left in a hurry, but everyone could see that this was a good sign, indicating that the other party really listened to Shuer's words, and not desperately messed around, presumably knowing that the Water Temple and the Forest Temple were still working hard, and many gods didn't mind leaving them some more time, even if time was running out。
Indeed, time is really running out, and this is the reason why the five of them remained silent after Ferrers left, and no one was in the mood to speak when they heard this kind of news.
"Lisa, forget all the words you heard today. Shuer stared blankly at the empty cup for a long time, and suddenly said, "Your mind is not mature and easily influenced. ”
"Brother......
"Even if tomorrow is the end of the world, today's days will still pass, and we can't fall into chaos first because the sword hangs over our heads. Therefore, how to live before, it will be the same in the future, do not change anything, this is not something that we people should worry about, believe in the Lord, the Lord will protect us from danger. ”
"In the name of the Lord, holy. Lisa nodded, drawing her fingers in circles on her chest, "I see, brother, I'll try to do it." ”
"Well, very well, as for the few of you, don't say anything to anyone, including Orlana and Minnie, I'll explain them there, remember, just any 'people'. ”
"Why, are you afraid that your reputation will be damaged?" Darker had recovered from the shock, and teased with a wicked smile, "It's really rare, it's the first time I've seen you speak so directly, not only did you not calculate him, but you didn't even ask him for payment, which is not in line with your style." ”
"Saying the same thing in different ways has a big impact on the outcome, so it has to be done differently for different people. You idiot is also a nobleman, it's impossible not to understand. Shure pouted, "And, even if I am greedy for money, do you think I might be paid for such a serious matter?"
"Yes, and more energetically than usual. ”
"Hey, this is self-help. Xiuer said angrily, "In a few more years, if you don't get it right, everyone will be finished together, and surviving is the best reward." ”
"You're greedy enough, and that's not enough for you. "You're not satisfied with surviving like everyone else, you're going to want to get more than they do." ”
"Well, I admit it, a person like Fellers doesn't need to talk to him about remuneration at all, as long as things are done and you don't talk about remuneration, he himself will feel embarrassed, and he will take the initiative to bring it up, and often give more than you want. Shuer affirmed, "This kind of person is not common, it is easy to cooperate with them, but it is a pity that their brains are not normal, otherwise it is a good choice to cooperate with them." ”
"Don't count me in, I have nothing to do with your Dark Moon Temple, I'm just a mercenary, I don't care who you cooperate with. Duck shrugged his shoulders with an indifferent look, but in the end, he couldn't hold back, leaned forward and lowered his voice, "What you just said, is it true?"
It was the first time they had heard the news, and they hadn't even had any signs before, so it was no wonder that people like Duck and Moriah were speechless in shock.
"In the past two years, I actually had a hunch, but I haven't said it because I can't be sure yet, and I want to wait until I collect enough examples before judging, but it seems that I don't need it anymore, and my hunch is not wrong. Shure sighed deeply and lowered his voice as well, "When I fought against the Great Rift with Augusta and them in the Rose Capital before, I once asked why the frequency of the Great Rift had become higher in the past two years, but he diverted the topic, presumably he actually knew something. ”
"Now you also know that the world is going to destruction, can you imagine such a life? At that time, there will be cracks erupting around the city every day, and the earth is no longer wandering with demonic beasts, but hundreds of millions of void evil spirits, even in the city, there is a great possibility that you will be unprepared to be sucked in by the otherworldly projection, even if you are lucky not to be sucked in, there is still a ghost space waiting for it. ”
can imagine, but no one wants to imagine, even if it is a legendary powerhouse, he can't live for a few days in such a world.
"The only result is that the civilization of Parvadiga will be destroyed, and there will be no trace of life in the world, at least no intelligent beings. Shuer's voice was a little eerie, "Fellers said something just now, he asked me if I could see any trends in the otherworldly projection, and the truth is, there is. ”
"What's the trend?"
"No, I don't want to cause panic. Shure glared at him, this idiot, he kept asking questions in front of Lisa, he really wanted to kill you. However, this is too obvious, so he still explained perfunctorily, "I haven't figured it out yet, I'll tell you when I think about the reason, there's no need to worry about it together." ”
"Alright, now that you have commissioned, the first step has been completed, and the honorarium will be settled when you return to the Temple of the Gods. Shuer deliberately diverted the topic, "You can move freely for the time being, but don't be too crazy, three days later it will be the Water Curtain Festival, and after the Water Curtain Festival is over, I will return to the Temple of the Gods immediately, heh, I also promised Yulia to meet with the Archbishop of Lord Simon, the Lord of the Sky, I thought it was just a matter of entrustment and cooperation, but now that I think about it, it is definitely not that simple." ”
"Can't the gratuity be settled now?"
"Are you a fool?" Shuer squinted at this idiot, he didn't have a brain, he actually wanted to take the gold from me in advance, stupid, even if he had to give it to you sooner or later, it would be good if I could touch it for a few more days.
"I'm afraid that you will be beaten to death, and you will not be paid for your life. Duck said leisurely, "You have suddenly become the focus of contention between the two sides now, although it is possible to temporarily stabilize the two sides, but it is difficult to guarantee that no one behind you wants you to die, who will pay me if you die?"
"Didn't you notice that Lisa looked at you like she was looking at a dead man?" Shul sneered, "Just say it if you're worried about my safety, I won't laugh at you, hahahaha......"
"Idiot, you're already laughing. Duck turned his head and said with an embarrassed smile, "Beautiful little lady, you listen to me, I'm not ......"
"Okay, don't worry, there is absolutely no problem with my safety here, it is impossible for either party to do anything to me, even if there is a third party with bad intentions, and there is an oath of the temple of gods, they will not dare to attack me. ”
It's not so much about comforting Duck as it is about Lisa who was reminded by Duck, in the eyes of the girl, her brother is synonymous with omnipotence, so she never thought that someone might plot against him, and after Duck's size, she remembered this possibility.
"Can you tell me now, then? Duck said warily, "On the way back, how many people do I have to mobilize in advance? Damn gold eater, what the hell do you want to do, what do you want to transport back?"
"That's a question you should ask Saf, not me. ”
"Huh, ask me?" Hidden under the cover of Shuer's body, the female swordsman was in a trance, and she didn't seem to have recovered from the shock just now, but she was startled when she heard Shuer call her name, "Why do you ask me?"
"It's time to make it clear to you. Shul turned to Saf, his attitude obviously much softer than speaking to Duck, "You like to read, you like to spread knowledge, and you want to start a school, so I've got you covered." ”
"After the Water Curtain Festival is over, you will go back to the Rose Capital with us, and the Darkmoon Temple will provide you with a school site, hehe, the temple has a lot of space and a lot of rooms, and it is still possible to set aside a small area for your school. ”
"But, I ......"
"I know that there are a lot of difficulties, lack of funds is still a small thing, and not having enough teachers is the biggest problem. Even if you solve the teacher's problem, there will be a lot of follow-up details to consider, and you don't know how to deal with these trivial matters at all, right? ”
"Hmm......" Saph didn't dare to raise his head, his voice was so soft that he could barely distinguish it, "so I just thought about it, I didn't dare to do it at all, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to do it." ”
"Don't worry, it's all solved. Shuer patted the female swordsman on the back, such an intimate action, only Shuer made it, and it would not arouse Saf's disgust, "In terms of funds, you have been saving money for the past few years, and you have worked hard in the otherworldly projection for money, you should have accumulated a certain amount, I think, there is no need to buy or rent a school site, this money should be enough as an upfront fund." Hehe, you're not mistaken, the Dark Moon Temple provided a school site for free for the first three years, and did not charge your rent, not only did it not collect rent, but you could even invest a sum of money as support, of course, this money will have to be repaid later. ”
Wow, that's not a big loss, the great Lord Lisa instinctively thought. However, the girl knew very well that her brother was definitely a person who knew between public and private, and even if he could decide everything with a single word in the temple now, he still made all the accounts clear, and made them open to everyone in the temple, and everyone was eligible to check them, which was enough to explain her brother's attitude. Therefore, the elder brother would never use the benefits of the temple to satisfy his needs, he was sure ......
"Not only does it not charge rent, but the Dark Moon Temple will also help you solve some of the teachers' problems, after the school is built, we will provide two teachers who are responsible for basic education, that is, reading and literacy, and will also be responsible for teaching basic religious studies, hehe, how about it, although there are not many people, it can also solve a large part of the difficulties. ”
Ha, brother, you're such a vampire, you've got your mind on this idiot.
