Chapter 222: Sleeping Moonlight
After the war, the faith of the people of Fluk was also shaken to a certain extent, in addition to Freya's eventual defeat by the demons, as well as the credit of Ymir's Doomsday Cult on the side.
While stability has returned to the majority of the population, Richard has an opportunity. The Twilight cult has taken root in Fluk, and with the Fluke government not intervening and the Goddess of Autumn appearing in Fluk less and less often, there will be more and more believers. The Twilight Cult came to Fluke with one more mission, and that was to repay the Doomsday Cult. Anyway, the Doomsday Church also contributed to Richard's victory, and if they received the help of identification, they had to repay it, so Richard's thank you gift to them was to destroy them. Now that Fluke is Richard's, they have lost their original value.
In addition to the common people, speculative merchants also took action, and due to the destruction of windmills, production problems arose everywhere, and merchants took the opportunity to hoard large quantities of grain with the intention of buying it at a high price. Naturally, Richard did not miss these opportunities, and the merchants' inventories were all expropriated by Richard in the name of military expenses. The merchants who resisted were also disposed of, their property confiscated, and their positions were given to the merchants of the Iron Wheel I.
Freya and Richard discussed other issues related to Fluck's stability, and finally made a compromise, in which Freya and Richard agreed that Richard would harm Fluk's people, and Freya would help Richard get the mainland. It's just that when shaking hands, Richard saw Freya's eyes revealing the fact of distrust. This kind of look Richard had seen in a female who later became Richard's meat dragon, and if Freya continued to do so in the future, the day of becoming Richard's meat god was not far off.
Fina placed the freshly made pastry on the table and finished talking about Fluk's future, and Richard asked the questions he had always wanted to know as he ate the pastry.
"Freya, I've always wanted to ask you a question, your Martyrs unit has an outstanding ability to conceal, is it because of you that this unit has this outstanding ability?"
The martyrs had caused them great trouble from the beginning of the Richard invasion, and by the end of the war they had lost more than 100 non-commissioned officers, the highest of which was a regimental staff officer. Their stealth ability is excellent, and Richard can only detect them within ten meters, and this ability will not be able to be exercised by ordinary humans.
Sure enough, Freya nodded: "Yes, I call this spell 'Sleeping Moonlight', this spell can make the martyrs hide their aura for a long time or even completely hide their aura. ”
"A whole army? The power of the goddess is really extraordinary. ”
Freya modestly said, "No, that's not just my strength. Without these strong believers, this magic would not have had this effect. ”
"Oh?" Richard tilted his head, did the power of the goddess and the believer complement each other? Richard seemed to touch a trace of the origin of the goddess's divine power. Richard looked at Freya and thought to himself that it was a pity that Freya would never tell him about her powers.
"Can your Martyrs still work now?"
"No, you can't. Freya was a little sad: "They committed suicide the moment I was defeated. ”
"Tsk, that's a pity. "If there were martyrs operating in the shadows, it would be more convenient for Richard to control this place, and no one in Richard's own stealth force could have such stealth skills except Valera. These people did not insult their names, and defended the sect with their lives after being defeated by the demons.
Since the Martyrs can't be used, what about the effect of this spell on others?" Richard pointed to himself, "How effective is your 'Sleeping Moonlight' magic on me?"
"It doesn't have the slightest effect!" Freya said categorically, "People like you who don't believe in goddesses at all can't accept the blessings of goddesses, and they won't have any effect for a minute!"
Richard was not able to do it at first, but Freya used it once on Richard and then on an ordinary Fluk soldier, and Richard believed that "Sleeping Moonlight" had no effect on outsiders like him.
After asking all the questions he wanted to ask, Richard stood up and opened the window, looking out at the vast golden plain, enjoying the cool breeze blowing in. Looking at the windmill in the distance, the construction workers of Ghazruvi are already on their way to Fluk, and it is believed that it will not be long before Fluk will regain its former prosperity. Although it took a lot of effort to take this country, it was all worth it.
"Hey, Freya. ”
"What?"
Richard tilted his head: "We have a celebration banquet tonight, you come and pour me wine." ”
Freya frowned, "Don't you have Fina?"
"I want you, do you have any opinions?"
"......" Freya did not answer.
Richard pointed at her and said, "Dress better tonight, don't embarrass me." ”
Looking at Richard who walked out, Freya's eyes were a little angry, but now she did not refuse Richard's qualifications.
In the eyes of the local dignitaries, Freya respectfully poured Richard wine like a barmaid, and everyone had a new idea in their hearts.
"Primatis, can I sit here?"
While the banquet was still going on, Richard left the banquet hall with Freya. The people who attended the banquet were also relaxed and chatting with acquaintances, and Diluka was no exception.
Primatis smiled, "Please take a seat, is there something wrong?"
Diluka smiled: "Now Yug Delsiru has not yet been taken down the Divine Domain, and Richard is getting closer and closer to victory. I want to get to know him better, and you and him longer. ”
Primatis saw through what she was thinking at a glance: "Are you worried that Richard will lose his word? Don't worry, since he promised you, as long as you follow the agreement, he will not break the contract." ”
Diluka smiled awkwardly, and Primatis continued: "To be honest, I don't know much more about Richard than you do, and I haven't been with them for very long, just a few years. ”
"What about the story of these years?"
Primatis took a sip of wine, sighed, and said, "There's nothing to say, it's not necessarily better than the war in Yugdelsiru." Let's talk about Rocky. We were just talking about this. ”
Primatis gestured to Fina to the side, and Diluka thought for a moment and accepted the suggestion.
"Come on Fina, I'll take care of you to start from the beginning. ”
"Okay. Fina leaned over and began to tell the story of her and Rocky......
