Chapter 197: Bargaining
"It's not us who are ridiculous, but the fools who are blinded by common sense, who don't know your potential, who can't see the future clearly. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Novels.23txt."
Thort Siena's eyes were fixed on the "Legendary Mage", and the look on his face was more serious than ever, as if he was not joking.
Lu Bin was stared at by the eyes of the high-ranking members of the Righteous Hand in Blackwater Town, as if he saw a female dragon caring for her cubs, and he couldn't help but feel a little irritable.
"I'm just a wandering mage who searches the ruins of civilization in search of lost knowledge, travels and fights to hone his skills, and very chances come to a trivial encounter, and that's it. ”
Lu Bin has been telling the truth from the beginning to the present, in the past, the senior pastor of the Vigilant Eye Church who was sitting opposite him had long believed it, but in the current situation, even if he reserved his attitude, he did not dare to ignore the influence of "Master Rez".
Thoth Siena curled his right index finger and tapped lightly on the table, "Your Excellency, I understand that you have introduced the Church of the Flame Heart and the Fountain Goddess to your territory, and their power is relatively weak, and they will not fight for or interfere in the construction of the territory and other daily affairs. In this regard, in fact, our righteous hand can also obey it, and we can also talk about it, as long as you prescribe conditions......"
Hearing this, Senior Pastor Gracchus could no longer remain silent, or he would be removed from the list of collaborators by the cunning Toth Siena.
"As a reminder, the Vigilant Eye Church has been involved in all frontier building processes in the North, and this time will be no exception. ”
Lu Bin sat up straight, and his eyes turned to the senior pastor sitting opposite: "I heard me right! Or have you forgotten the unpleasant experience we had in the past, and you are embarrassed to mention this?"
Senior Priest Gragu grinned, "Lord Rez, you're finally starting to look me in the face. The conflicts that have arisen between us are only private matters, and must not be involved in serious matters. As an added note, you can check out the history of the North's frontiers over the years, and we at the Vigilant Eye Church are the best partners for your lords. As a powerful person, you must not be emotional, right?"
For a while, Lu Bin couldn't find the right words to refute, he was choked by the other party's verbal offensive, and turned his head to think: "On that day, if I didn't show Shuijie Lanya, I would definitely be subdued and taken to the private prison of the Vigilant Eye Church, and live a miserable life." In retrospect, who was right and who was wrong?"
Senior Priest Gracchus knew that this was true, but he didn't want to see the topic diverted by the other party: "There is a terrible thing about the sacrifice of evil god believers in Blackwater Town, some people may accidentally bump into it, but they unscrupulously cast high-level spells in the town, although they thwarted the conspiracy of the evil cultists, but this arrogant act violates our cherished conscience?
The Paladin Leader of the Hand of Justice didn't want to get into trouble with these suspicions, but the senior priest of the Vigilant Eye Church just didn't want to see him feel better, and insisted on pulling him into the water.
"In order to protect the lives of the public, sacrificing the interests of some of them is also a helpless choice in some emergency times. Furthermore, the sacrifice of the Silent Lord of the evil gods, Sillion, and the massacre of the demon lodgers, were solved by Lord Reze before the damage could be extended, and even if we took action ourselves, we could not have done better, so why treat them so harshly? ”
Lu Bin nodded slightly, this approving statement made Pastor Gragu a little nervous, but he couldn't find the right words to refute: "For such a thing, our Vigilant Eye Church is obviously a bit derelict in its duties, and it will not let go of any suspicious character easily." As for the things that were born that day, Lord Rez's reaction was indeed a bit intense. ”
"That's all for gossip, let's get down to business!"
Lu Bin, who was alone, dominated the pace of the conversation in front of the top of the two churches, and because of the demands of others, Toth Siena and Gracchus could only continue to cope with it with exhaustion.
"I worked with the Heart of Flames and the Church of the Fountain Goddess, first of all, because of the former's shrewd and capable Ranger group, which was able to properly protect the new seedlings during the construction of the Pioneer Realm, and the teachings of the Ranger Patronus were not much different from the philosophy of me, a wandering mage who wandered the wilderness all year round. As for the faith of introducing Her Highness Lady Edas of Tranquility in the Pioneer Realm, I have heard that Lord Nell Austin, the lord of Blackwater, seems to have a close relationship with the church of the Fountain Goddess. After all, we are neighbors, and sometimes communication through church people is often more appropriate than direct official conversation. A bridge or a link, that's how I position it. ”
Hearing this, Toth Siena and Gracchus looked at each other, and their hearts were a little shocked, neither of them expected that the "Legendary Mage" would think of such a detailed level, and they didn't look like novices at all.
"The paladins and paladins of the Righteous Hand Church are too strong, and as for the Vigilant Eye Church, no matter who it is, it is a high posture, so it will be difficult for us to cooperate like this, I believe you should understand my troubles. I'm not alone in the new pioneer territory, there are several founders, and even at least two mainstream ethnic groups are booked. ”
Thoth Siena quickly understood that this was the condition of the "Legendary Mage", as a high-level of the church, he had a certain right to speak, and thought about it carefully: "Your Excellency, our Righteous Hand has many nobles in the north who cooperate well, and in the spring of next year, we can organize five hundred landless farmers to go to the New Frontier to participate in all aspects of the construction process. We will not give any instructions to these people, and leave them all to the presiding officer of the territory to arrange, hoping that this will be exchanged for the presence of the church and spread the idea of the hand of justice. ”
Lu Bin estimated that the number was within the allowable range, "Five hundred? The early stage of the territory seems to be enough! Well, if the church can provide a sum of building materials at an affordable price, I will discuss with the other founders to allow the righteous hand to share the faith of the pioneer territory." ”
Hearing this, Senior Pastor Gragu couldn't sit still, and couldn't help but clench his fists in a panic, he didn't expect that Toth Siena would leave himself alone and act alone, but the other party had successfully seized the opportunity, what should he do to get tickets for the church, and it was rare that he had to bow his head to this spellcaster.
"Lord Rez, we recently learned from a secret source that the Dark Wizard King at the apex of the Northern Underworld has recovered from all the injuries sustained in the battle with Thorgod Tyrese, and it is far better than in the past. The dark Ones, encouraged by their increasing activity, are moving from the hidden underground to the open side. The growing group of dark wizards, as well as evil cults from different places, will not sit idly by and watch humanity expand its territory. I believe that the Vigilant Eye Church will play a decisive role in the construction of the new frontier. ”
Lu Bin was stunned when he heard "Thorgod Tyrese", he finally figured out the identity of the golden boy, looking at the situation, I am afraid that only he was kept in the dark, and it was funny to think about it.
Next, Senior Pastor Gragu's words, Lu Bin also vaguely heard some of them, and thought about it carefully, he successively resisted the Silent King Sillian, the first time was to ask for himself, and the second time was when the other party came to the door by himself with the help of Windranger Aurelia, and they all suffered losses, and I believe that they will come again in the future.
"The Vigilant Eye Church is indeed a nuisance, but they do have many successful examples of dealing with false god beliefs and devil believers, and they are also very effective at guarding against dark wizards. It's definitely not okay to just come in without bleeding, it will make several churches, including the Hand of Justice, feel unfair, and if I nod my head now, then the Pioneer Territory will never be at peace in the future. ”
Lu Bin retracted his thoughts: "If the Pioneer Territory is attacked by a dark wizard, or if there is an evil god sacrifice in the territory, then I will ask the Vigilant Eye Church for help, as for now, with a righteous partner, I believe I can survive it." ”
The High Priest Gragu was satisfied, but he didn't see the meaningless smile on Toth Siena's lips at this time, and he self-righteously threw out a valuable piece of information, which frightened the "legendary mage".
Toth Hienna glanced at him, and couldn't help but feel some pity in his heart: "Fool, who did not participate in the first and most difficult years of the pioneer territory, and experienced and faced pressure from all sides, why should you give you a special status and share the faith of the people?"
Lu Bin clearly saw that there was a turbulent undercurrent beneath the surface of harmony, and Gracchus, the senior pastor from the Vigilant Eye Church, was very satisfied with his promise, and Toth Hienna of the Righteous Hand Church seemed to be content with this arrangement.
"The construction of the pioneer collar will be officially carried out next spring, please wait for the good news!"
Lu Bin gave the order to evict the guests lukewarmly, and Toth Siena immediately got up and left, after all, it was a very rude act to disturb the dining of the "legendary mage", and as for Gragus, because of the promise, the big stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground, and his attitude changed again, but when the high-level officials of the Church of the Righteous Hand who came together got up and left, he seemed to be a little unreasonable to sit in his place again.
Seeing the two senior clergy representing their respective churches leave the tavern, Lu Bin's mood finally relaxed, and after slowly settling the rest of the dinner, he went upstairs and returned to his room after settling the bill, and after a little decoration, he fell asleep quietly on the warm bed in front of the roaring fireplace.
Lu Bin's spiritual will quickly returned to the body of the buried bones, and obtained a slight improvement in his physique through the wishing tree, and finally met the inheritance requirements of the "Rune Blacksmith".
The pendant of zigzag lightning set off a light wind out of thin air, and countless fine particles fluttered in the wind, and Lu Bin looked carefully before he realized that each particle was a mysterious rune, and they were rushing towards him.
"Yes, this time I really did!"
