As for the strong alone...... Within one or two hundred meters, even if Luo Ming himself was hit by a solid cannonball, he would probably have to suffer a lot of injuries - and instead of catching the cannonball head-on, he used his exquisite swordsmanship to exert a lateral force on the cannonball to push it away, but this was enough to damage the long sword in his hand and burst into the tiger's mouth.

If you really get hit head-on...... He himself might be able to heal himself with Cang Yan's recovery power, but most of the other swordsmen would be seriously injured, or even die on the spot.

Of course, a strong swordsman like Luo Ming can generally predict the trajectory of the cannonball and dodge it.

But after all, the risk is very high, and the average swordsman will hesitate to stay far away than charge casually - it is obvious that if you rush closer, you will be more likely to be hit.

Even if he really rushed, he had to be prepared to be slapped by the shotgun of the tiger squat cannon, and the vindictive shield would be worn out a lot.

If you want to really carry the cannonball head-on, you have to be a great swordsman. Great Sword Master, huh...... It is estimated that I can't find one in the entire Vanchy County, and even if I find one, will such a noble big man go into battle casually?

Using one's own strength as a bargaining chip and directly negotiating with the other party to obtain benefits is much better than taking risks to go to the battlefield to fight a battle - Luo Ming has three sword masters on his side, and if he besieges a great sword master, he may not be able to win, but there is a high chance that he will be injured, and the life of the great sword master is also precious, so he can't do this.

Thinking about it like this, Luo Ming found that in the ordinary level of battle, he was already in a good situation.

There are only two types of combat that he still needs to be concerned about at the moment - fighting monsters, and fighting an army with mages or priests to accompany them.

In the case of monsters, they didn't rely on the array to fight, but relied on the relatively strong individual strength to disrupt the opponent's array, and even if the long-range solid cannonball hit, it could only hurt one at a time.

By analogy, it can be compared to the cavalry of human soldiers.

In a few months' time, spring will fall, and when the winter snow melts, you'll have to face such enemies - but it's not impossible to hit them with shotgun at mid-range, and three swordsmen at close range.

And the other one is more annoying - at least for now, Luo Ming's chances of victory are not great, unless it is to use special cannonballs to fight long-range snipers and blast out the casters in the opponent's army formation as soon as possible, otherwise military spells are really not to be underestimated.

It's not that the combined spell makes a big fireball and smashes it down or anything - that thing usually doesn't have a range of more than a kilometer, and firing at artillery is doomed.

It's about all kinds of auxiliary spells, such as courage or bloodlust - let the soldiers scream and rush up with high morale, even if they are hit by artillery, it is estimated that they can hold out for several rounds without retreating, even if they are injured, they are not aware of it, and they really want to drag a cushion before they die......

In Luo Ming's opinion, this is no different from taking drugs - it is obviously unwise to fight against this kind of army that has been drugged, especially when Luo Ming has few people on hand.

However, it seems that there is no need to be hostile to such an army in the short term. These are all elite soldiers, and they will not just appear in this remote county to deal with a little knight.

There will definitely be a day when we will have to face this kind of army, but by then, Luo Ming may have trained enough soldiers. Maybe you won't even be able to fill it with the blood and lives of the soldiers, and there will be enough artillery and grenades to blast it into flesh.

Putting aside these future reveries for the time being, Luo Ming continued to devote himself to very practical and practical work.

===============================================

In the blink of an eye, it was late October.

The three altars for the goddess of springs, the goddess of agriculture, and the goddess of cleansing (Aya simply determined its gender) had already been built, and because Luo Ming was more careful, the scale of these three altars was larger than that of ordinary altars, and the foundations and open space were reserved for direct transformation into formal shrines.

Since Ariana herself is the undisputed priest of the Goddess of Cleanliness, the altar of the Goddess of Cleanliness was built first, and has already begun to be converted into a temple - even if it is just an empty shell, it has a bright face, right?

And the priest of the ambitious goddess of agriculture, Hills, also quickly completed the formalities, broke away from the original small temple, and then ran to Meiquan to receive fifty acres of land, and in the name of the landlord of these fifty acres of land, he swore allegiance to Luo Ming.

Theoretically, a priest of a god should not recognize anyone as a lord except for a god - but in reality, this is not such a harsh iron law, and a priest can be a worldly person, such as a landlord, or even receive a knighthood.

There is no conflict between the fact that some of the Electors of the Holy Roman Empire on Earth also held high positions at the same time.

The so-called knighthood can be seen as a role to be played, just as a person can be a philanthropist and a torturer at the same time, or he can do his best for the country while embezzling public funds on the other.

It is entirely possible for a person to receive multiple unrelated titles, or even to be a nobleman of two countries at the same time. If the two countries were to fight, it would be as if they were to be schizophrenic, and each of them would send troops to fight in the name of the nobility of the two countries, and there might even be a situation where they would fight themselves, although this situation has now decreased, but it is not absolutely impossible.

Hills as a pastor and Hills as a small landowner cannot be seen as the same person - it suddenly becomes clear that this is what he said.

However, Hills himself has no intention of being a grass on the wall, anyway, it is unlikely that the power of the goddess of agriculture will conflict with Luo Ming, so she can leave the internal affairs of the church and concentrate on serving Luo Ming here, and in the process use his power to spread the glory of the goddess, even if she makes a great contribution, no one can blame her.

Now that Hills is also loyal, Romin will not refuse to help her convert the altar into a small temple, but it is bookkeeping—the cost of the construction will be offset by her future salary and credit.

On the surface, he does put on a fair and just appearance, but in reality, he must be partial, but his methods are difficult to criticize.

The temple of the goddess of cleansing was the first to be built, and naturally it was the first batch to be built, and in the process, a lot of stone and wood were consumed, although there was still a surplus in the warehouse, but those were other strategic reserves that were of great use to Luo Ming.

So he contacted the merchant to buy an extra batch of stone and timber, but he couldn't get it in a day or two, so he didn't have enough materials to build a second temple for the time being.
