The rest of the Night Dancer's retraction took little effort, especially when the Night Dancers members who had arrived from under Thunder Bluff joined in. Whether it was the duchy army that had disarmed and surrendered, or the serfs who were confused about the status quo, they all obediently obeyed orders - the situation was stronger than people, and in the face of sharp daggers and long swords, they really lacked the interest and courage to resist.

"My lord must be happy now. Yu Qian stood beside Viscount Prescott and looked at the night dancers who were cleaning up the camp in the distance, looking very relaxed. "My colleague is giving a sermon in that tent, and it will be over in about half an hour. It is conservatively estimated that at least three high-ranking priests will be born after the end of the day. Their power is very useful to you, but I have a small piece of advice. ”

"Please. Viscount Prescott still looked a little nervous, after all, the divine servant in front of him looked like he was going to kill himself just a few hours ago. Any normal person would be nervous.

"They have received the admonitions, but they are not yet the most devout of our lords. Yu Qian said in a deep voice, "Their loyalty is not guaranteed, and you should take steps as soon as possible to ensure that they are loyal enough to our Lord and your church." ”

"Sounds hard, but I should be able to solve it. Viscount Prescott rubbed his head and replied, "It seems that many of my father's teachings to me can be applied to the day-to-day management of the Church. A big part of it is about gaining loyalty. ”

"Very good. Yu Qian nodded with satisfaction, "Then, retire first." My colleagues also leave directly after completing their tasks. If there is anything else, my lord will speak to you directly through the oracle. Please develop the Church, Your Majesty. ”

Viscount Prescott knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice, "It is our lifelong mission to spread the glory of our Lord. We will spare no effort to make the Church all over the world!"

"Determined things can be put aside. Yu Qian said softly, "You'd better solve the more urgent problem first." For example, the current mass famine facing the Duchy of Grant, such as your younger brother George, who may be used as a puppet by the royal family. ”

"An unusually thick fog has covered Fort Grant, the capital of the Principality, for three months now. Viscount Prescott stood up and replied, "Neither the Duchy scholars nor the investigating magicians sent directly by the royal family have been able to determine the exact source of the fog. When I was usually dealing with the work of the underground chamber of commerce, I was also sending someone to investigate this matter. It's just that so far there is still nothing to gain. It seems that this is just a purely natural phenomenon. ”

"A simple natural phenomenon?" Yu Qian looked at Viscount Prescott and asked, "Don't you think what you see now is a little different from usual?"

"You mean ......" Viscount Prescott was suddenly stunned, looked around and said in surprise, "The fog has dissipated?"

"No, it's just that you can't see the fog anymore. Yu Qian looked at the fog still lingering around him with interest, "It's really interesting." This is not an ordinary natural phenomenon, but a criminal act with a purpose. ”

Ruan An and Yu Qian knelt in the Jinluan Hall at the same time and saluted Shen Xi. Sophia sat next to Yu Qian, looking a little bored.

"My lord, your task has been completed. Ruan An spoke first, "As you wish, Lord Yu Qian was violently attacked by villains. ”

"My lord, my mission is accomplished. Yu Qian didn't seem to hear what Ruan An was saying, "As you wished, His Majesty Prescott has successfully obtained the three artifacts that symbolize your authority. ”

"I thought you had given Yu Qian the task to help Prescott take power. Sophia asked curiously, "I'm a little worried that you'll break the commandments." ”

"Actually, it was a somewhat risky test. Shen Xi looked sideways at Sophia and explained in a low voice, "I must know exactly where the margin and bottom line of the precepts are. This dispatch of Yu Qian is one of the safer tests I can think of. So far, the results have been encouraging. ”

"What test?" Sophia was even more curious, "Could it be that Yu Qian's mission is not just to ensure that those three artifacts are obtained by your Pope?"

"Not at all. Shen Xi smiled, "I think Yu Qian's task is to ensure that Prescott enters the miracle and completes the test, and I clearly instructed Yu Qian's mission is to protect Prescott's safety, and my fundamental purpose is to let Yu Qian assist Prescott in taking control of the principality." ”

"What?" Sophia was completely dizzy, "I didn't understand. ”

"That's what I tested. Shen Xi began to explain to Sophia what had happened.

"First of all, when Prescott was in distress, Panakaya overstepped my direct command and gave Yu Qian an order to protect Prescott. Then, as he completed his mission and communicated with me, I reconfirmed the order. But what I wanted was for Yu Qian to ensure that Prescott could enter the miracle labyrinth in the Principality Army camp. ”

"In other words, you're duplicitous?"

"It's understandable. And the test proved that Yu Qian took what I thought as a direct task instruction. This instruction is higher than my verbal instruction. ”

"And what about the fundamental purpose? This fundamental purpose of yours should be to violate the precepts?"

"What my fundamental purpose is, Yu Qian doesn't know at all. And when I had a direct conversation with Prescott, I didn't directly instruct him what to do. I'm just making it easier for him. Shen Xi smiled proudly, "The second precept is, 'Do not directly interfere with the functioning of human society or the thoughts of people. But that doesn't stop us from guiding and suggesting certain people to act in line with our expectations. ”

Sophia's eyes widened, "Is this okay? That means we can safely influence mortal society in the future?"

"If only it were that simple. Shen Xi smiled less happily now, "According to the current test, at least the odds of success for some specific things are safe. I can protect the Pope by sending Divine Servants, or I can watch my own Pope hacked to death. But I can't do the same to other mortals. At the same time, I cannot command my own pope to unify the world...... There are still a lot of limitations. ”

"Sounds like a hassle. Sophia rolled her eyes, "And it's useless." ”

"There's nothing wrong with trouble. Shen Xi sighed, "After all, it's a loophole, and it's easy to push the boat down the river, but it's very troublesome to find a suitable boat." Besides, pushing it doesn't mean that the boat will be able to drift to where it wants. But at least it provided me with the means to interfere with mortals. ”

"Well, I think you'd better report it to your mentor. Sophia suddenly said with great interest, "Being able to circumvent the precepts by interfering with it! ”

"The mentor should have known about this method for a long time. Shen Xi spread his hands, "To put it bluntly, this is just a compound effect caused by the Pope's nether status and the timely activation of the protection regulations. The magic of creating miracles and bestowing artifacts is still my unique miracle, and there is little point in promoting it. ”

"It's not about promotion. "The point is to bypass the precepts! At least I've never heard of a trainee god who can find a way to circumvent the precepts, even the gurus believe that the precepts can't be bypassed." At least your plan can come up with a new idea for everyone, and it can also get a lot of magic points, why not use it?"

"I don't need any other miracles now. Shen Xi waved his hand to let Yu Qian and Ruan An, who were kneeling on the ground, retreat, turned to Sophia and said seriously, "What can the magic point be for?"

"Divine points are so useful!" Sophia looked excited, "There are a lot of other intern gods in the public temple area, and they will sell their followers' offerings, and sometimes they can find interesting things! ”

"That's true. Shen Xi thought about it, the effect of magic points is probably similar to ordinary currency, but the effect is much higher than that of simple currency. It's definitely not a bad thing to store more, "Then I'll just tell the guru?"

"That's not going to work. Sophia stood up and volunteered, "I'll go and ask Henry to come over." He's the god of writing and art, so it's fitting for him to teach you. ”

"Teach me, teach me what?" Shen Xi asked.

"Teach you how to write a thesis. Sophia ran out of the Taihe Palace, "If you have a new discovery, of course, you have to write a paper!

The Taihe Hall only left a messy silence.

After a while, Sophia sent someone to bring the not-so-good news, "Henry is busy creating a new work, and he will only have time tomorrow afternoon." Anyway, you're tired enough today, so you might as well take a good rest. ”

Only then did Shen Xi free himself from the "fear of papers". Although he dropped out of junior high school, Shen Xi never went to school again. But in the year of cooperation with Qian Sanming, in order to improve his management level, Shen Xi read a lot of literature on management and medicine. He obviously knew those words when they were opened, but what they meant after they got together, Shen Xi was completely confused.

Although it was only a day to postpone the date of study, it was enough to make Shen Xi relax a little - after just accepting the great change that he was no longer human, learning to write confusing literature was definitely not a good choice.
