As the eastern gate of the empire, the military role of Nuuk City was far greater than its political and economic role, so the buildings and streets in the city were mainly designed to meet military purposes. www.biquge.info The houses on both sides of the street are sturdy and tall, completely made of hard granite stones, the roofs are flat-roofed, and the side facing the street is built with a battlement wall to facilitate the archers to release cold arrows at the battlements. The provincial governor's residence, the office buildings of various departments, the ordnance warehouse, the grain and grass warehouse, and other military points were all built at the intersection of the main streets and roads that were convenient for traffic, but a tall and heavy stone wall must be built within 20 steps outside the gate, which not only shielded the sight of the incoming enemy, but also avoided the direct impact of the key departments by the heavy iron cavalry, and greatly improved the safety.

Liang Ke admired as he walked: "Amazing! It's really amazing! If you use these buildings for street fighting, if you want to take this city, I'm afraid you will have to pay a lot of casualties." ”

"Oh, Mr. Aragorn also knows how to attack and defend city battles?" Kekeba raised his eyebrows and asked Liang Ke a professional question.

"Haha, where do I know what to attack and defend, but I am amazed by the precise thinking of the designer, at first glance those buildings are disorganized, but in fact, there are rules between the height and shortness, and the crossbowmen standing on it complement each other to shield, which can ensure the full coverage of the street, leaving no dead ends, such a calculation is really amazing! Lord Sheriff, who is the hand of such an exquisite design?" Liang Ke was rarely modest.

"Oops! Big ...... Your Excellency, you are a wise ...... Wise, Cocoba has also encountered ...... before I have met wise men who can read these buildings, but ...... But like an adult, I can ...... One needle ...... Those who see blood say the essence of it, and ...... Or for the first time, you are really coco...... Kekeba's bosom friend!" Kekeba stepped forward with excitement on his face and grabbed Liang Ke's hand, shaking it very hard.

"Oh, is it true that Lord Cocoba is the designer of this city? Liang Ke was almost shocked by this ugly-looking guy again.

"Your Excellency...... Joking...... It's a joke. Binuk City has been around for almost a thousand years, and I ...... I've been here for less than ...... Less than twenty years, when ...... When I was serving as an operational staff officer in the Northern Army, I ...... He once participated in the defense of Binuk City...... Design, the renovation of the city...... I'm in charge of the program. Kekeba seemed to be a little embarrassed by Liang Ke's praise, and his speech was a little stumbling.

"That's also a great achievement! You said you served as the combat staff officer of the Legion, but now how do you become the sheriff of the border city?"

"Hey!" Kekeba let out a long sigh when he heard Liang Ke ask about the past.

"Speaking of which, this ...... I'm to blame myself, too. When I was a teenager, I studied military command at Jonah College in the imperial capital, and I was not ...... about what I had learned I was very enthusiastic, and after graduating, the military department assigned me to the Northern Corps. I...... From a sergeant major step by step to a corps staff officer, during this period, he was also ...... by the military department many times Awards. Once, when I was on patrol in the barracks, I found a sergeant major prostituting in the barracks, which was a ..... a serious crime, and according to military discipline, I fined the bastard twenty ...... Whip. But these twenty lashes are beaten...... The problem is that the bastard is the nephew of the chief of the logistics department of the military department. Not too much...... For a long time, the corps commander asked me, an operational staff officer, to take the army to the front, so ...... That year coincided with the famine of the orcs in the north, and the orcs were extremely fierce in their autumn hunting in the northern frontier of the empire...... Ferocious. On that day, we were in the Gobi ...... One...... I took more than 100 people to hold on to the earthen fence for a day and a night, and finally the bow was broken, and none of the knives were intact...... The mages were all killed, and the orcs left us for some unknown reason and retreated. I fled with the remnants of more than a dozen people...... fled back to the camp, but then inexplicably ...... Inexplicably, I got a strange illness and ...... As a result, I became like this. That's not all, the most shady thing is that the commander of the legion ...... On the grounds that the command was ineffective and caused heavy casualties, I was given twenty lashes and then thrown back to the military headquarters. None of the bigwigs in the military department listened to my defense, and directly revoked my military membership and sent me to a local place. Fortunately, when I was in the Northern Legion, I formed a deep friendship with the lord of Binuk...... Friendship, I was asked by him to come here and become a sheriff. ”

"Oh! I see! Talented people are always better at wielding power, so let's open up some! Haven't you found a doctor for treatment for this strange disease?" Liang Ke comforted Kekeba after listening to Kekeba's misfortune and diverted the topic.

"But the doctor has also seen it, and the priests of the temple have also treated it with the Holy Light Technique, but it has no effect, hey!" Kekoba shook his head helplessly.

"He's not sick, he should have fallen under a curse called 'Gabrin Transfiguration', which should be regarded as a variant of spiritual magic, Gabling Transfiguration is a special ability of the high high priest of the orcs in ancient times, if it is cast by the most powerful priest, it can instantly turn a living person into a monster that looks like a monkey, and the orcs call that kind of monster Gabrin. Unexpectedly, after 10,000 years, some of the orc priests have mastered this ability, but he should not have fully mastered it, otherwise Kekeba will not only become a monster, but also lose his language ability, which is definitely not as simple as knocking. When Liang Ke and Kekeba didn't know the reason, Achilles suddenly sent such a message.

"Gabrin Transfiguration?" Liang Ke repeated, recalling what he had seen in the Book of Jonah, and finally confirmed that the great wise man did not seem to have heard of such a curse either.

"Achilles, can this curse be removed?"

"What? moved the heart of compassion?" Achilles was a little puzzled.

"If you can help, you can help, saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter." ”

"This kind of transfiguration is a curse, different from spiritual magic, it needs the assistance of some medicine, I have only heard of it, but I really don't know how to remove it, if it was so easy, those priests would have earned his gold coins a long time ago. Perhaps, we still have to go to the orcs to find a way. ”

Kekeba watched Liang Ke pinching his necklace pendant and stepped forward to remind Liang Ke.

"Monsieur Aragorn, the temple has arrived. ”

"Oh!" Liang Ke looked up at the magnificent building called Grechedor.

The Glacedo Temple is a typical Denarus architectural style, along the south side of the central square of the city, with huge granite bricks piled up with a three-story pedestal covering an area of nearly 10,000 meters, fifty or sixty stone pillars with a diameter of two meters rise from the pedestal, supporting the temple's high and raised semi-circular dome in a ring, the three-hole arch with a height of four meters opens in the north of the temple, a pair of huge stone beasts with wings on their backs in front of the door, staring at the passers-by who walk in front of the temple with cold eyes, the high eaves of the temple squat on the eaves of different images of eaves beasts, the snow water melting from the roof slowly flows through their slightly downward cheeks, and then condenses into sharp ice vertebrae at the corner of the mouthIt looks like long fangs sticking out of their mouths, making people shudder. Directly above the temple stands a huge gilded bronze statue of Denarus, the god of fate, which glows in the sunlight with layers of golden light, and people can't help but feel awe from the soul. The god of fate holds the compass of fate in his left hand, and holds the slender spear of time and space with his right thumb and index finger, and his deep gaze looks down on all beings through the gap between his hands, and the faint smile on his face seems to represent that he can give good luck to believers at any time, or it may be to bring bad luck to those infidels.

"Aragon...... Sir, although I don't know what you came to the temple for, ...... But I still have to warn you that the priests here are not so easy to talk to, you ...... Be mentally prepared. Looking at Liang Ke, who was slightly distracted, Kekeba gave a kind reminder.

"Haha, thank you Lord Sheriff for the reminder, I'm just here to check some information and verify some information, I don't think the priests are still embarrassed by me, a hillbilly with no oil and water. Liang Ke shook the big one, which had faded slightly due to the wind and snow, and smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Hehe! That's ...... Cocoba. I won't disturb the adults' business, I still have some things to deal with, you are done...... After that, I can go directly to the Blues Hotel, where I have booked rooms for a few people, and I invite you to try them in the evening...... Try the Pinook's signature roasted ...... Roasted deer lips, I believe...... That's probably something you've never tasted...... delicious. ”

"What's the matter, Lord Sheriff, still doesn't worry about us rude strangers?" Liang Ke asked Kekeba with a smile.

"Follow you and your ...... entourage to ensure the ...... of the citizens Security, that...... That's Cocoba's...... duties, but ...... In addition to this, other ...... All out of erudition to Monsieur Aragon...... Respect. Kekeba was a little nervous when Liang Ke asked this, and he began to speak again.

"Hahaha! In that case, then I will follow the customs of the locals and wait for the wine and conversation with the adults. ”

After saying that, Liang Ke instructed Piedro and the others to stay outside, and only took Tucker into the temple. At this time, in the tall castle opposite the square, there were several pairs of eyes looking at Liang Ke's back with interest.

"Hehe, it seems that our esteemed Bishop has a guest here, and this is a strange fellow. The tall man in a loose dark green brocade robe gently shook the wine glass in his hand, the scarlet wine slowly swirled in the glass, exuding a strong aroma of wine, the man put the wine glass to his nose and sniffed it gently, then withdrew his gaze, walked to the oak table, touched the glass with the thin old man in the red sacrificial robe opposite, sat down and slowly poured the wine into his mouth, closed his eyes and tasted it.

"What a guest, a bunch of rats in the ditch, devil's cubs, stench infidels, sooner or later I will burn them all at the stake. The old man in the red robe drank the Chamberlain red wine in his glass in one gulp, and slammed the glass on the oak table.

"That is, a group of dangerous and shameful murderers who dared to swagger to the city of Binuk, and dared to enter the temple to defile the great god Denarus, these people simply did not take the lord of the city seriously. Our sheriff doesn't know what to think, but he's still following behind his ass and serving those shameful murderers......" A slightly chubby middle-aged man standing next to the thin old man chattered with a spittle.

"Shabi, about these people, Kekeba has already sent someone to report to me, and he followed them because he knew the danger of these people, so he had to stay alone. In addition, I already knew about the good deeds that your brother did in Turing, and he was innocent of death. He dared to collude with foreign enemies, kill his own compatriots, rob other people's property, and forcibly occupy other people's wives, any of which was enough to kill him once. In my opinion, you should take care of yourself, get your taxes up on time, and don't let the finance department find a reason to clean you up. The green-robed man glared at him in disgust, and filled his glass again.

"The lesson of the lord of the castle is that Shabi will definitely live up to the high expectations of the lord of the castle. Listening to the reprimand of the city lord, Shabi quickly bent down to admit his mistake, his ass was higher than his shoulders, but his eyes were secretly aimed at the cardinal Mutuo beside him. Mu Tuo frowned slightly, glanced at him vaguely, and then shook his head slightly.

Unbeknownst to him, Liang Ke had been looked at by three men with different thoughts, and swaggered through the porch with Tucker to the hall of the temple. Since it was not a Sunday, there were a few worshippers sitting on the benches in the hall, and Liang Ke was hesitating, and a nun wearing a white veil and a black robe came to Liang Ke.

"May God bless you!" Sir, are you here to pray, or to repent, or ......" The black-robed nun placed her left hand on her chest and drew a semicircle in front of Liang Ke with her right hand, performing a holy blessing ceremony.

"Hello! I'm here to inquire about something, I don't know what to call a beautiful nun?" Liang Ke bowed slightly, and returned a vulgar salute.

"Joanna King, how can I help you?"

"Sister Joanna, I wanted to ask something about Gandosa. ”

"Gandosa? It sounds like a person's name, but I don't really know this person. Maybe you'll find something to learn from looking elsewhere. The nun thought for a moment, then shook her head apologetically with Liang Ke.

"Oh, this man may not be known anywhere else, is the Bishop here? Can I please tell Sister Joanna about it, I think the Bishop can give me some guidance on the lost lamb. In order to achieve his goal, Liang Ke was cheeky and begged for help.

"I'm sorry sir! The Bishop is not at the temple, you may need to come back tomorrow to see him. ”

"Oh! that's excuse, we'll be back tomorrow morning. May God be with you!"

"Joanna, who is this gentleman?" Just as Liang Ke was about to turn to leave, a tall thin young man in a brown robe walked over.

"Father Zela, they have come to see the Bishop, saying that they want to know something about Gandosa. The nun bowed and replied.

"What? which Gandosa?" asked the priest who called Zela, who didn't seem to hear clearly, in a loud voice.

"Gandosa, the necromancer from 10,000 years ago. Why?Master Priest knows about this person?" Liang Ke observed the priest's expression a little nervous.

"Of course you know, as a clergyman, how many people don't know about that demon? What are you asking him for?" the priest stared at Liang Ke warily.

"Hehe, that's right, a friend of mine is a trainee at Jonah Academy, and they went out with the teacher to practice, and they went back to write a graduation thesis on "A Study on the Roots of Necromancy Sin", and the teacher said that Gandosa was the most evil necromancer, and our Denarus priest must be the one who knows the villain best, so, please let me try my luck here. Faced with the question, Liang Ke hurriedly shook out the reason he had already made up.

"Oh, but didn't those students already return to the imperial capital?" the young priest did not believe Liang Ke's lies.

"A few of them were injured a little bit, stayed in Turing to recuperate, and didn't go back with everyone, didn't Mr. Johnson tell you?"

"Oh! it turned out to be a student of Johnson-sensei. Haha, the last time he met with Bishop Muto when he was passing by, I was by my side, and Mr. Johnson also instructed me in a little alchemy, he is really a good person. Are his students alright?" the priest confirmed the identities of Liang Ke and the others, and spoke closely.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just that it's not very convenient to move, so I can only do it for me. Can the priest give us any guidance on Gandosa?" Liang Ke struck while the iron was hot and went straight to the point.

"This ...... Gandosa was a wicked heretic, a shameless butcher, as well known in our church, but I know very little about his history, and he is a stain on God's light. In fact, most of the time we don't mention it, let alone discuss this guy's affairs, and no one studies his history and whereabouts. ”

"Oh, so it's hard for me to get the information I want here?" Liang Ke was slightly disappointed.

"Well, there is a library of various sacred texts in the temple, and I will take you there, and you may find some information there. ”

"Thank you so much, Priest. ”

Liang Ke followed Father Zela through the hall and along the side corridor to the library, the temple's library was surprisingly large, a hundred meters square, three walls were occupied by bookcases, all kinds of books were densely piled up from the bottom to the roof, and there were high ladders that could be moved next to the bookshelves, so that people could easily climb up to get the books from the heights. With a large solid wood table in the middle of the library floor and dozens of velvet-wrapped high chairs on either side, Zela called the caretaker and led Liang Ke into the library.

"You can take them here as you like, but please understand that these books cannot be taken away without the permission of the Bishop. Zela politely explained the rules to Liang Ke.

"Yes, thank you, Priest. ”

"If you finish reading it, you can leave on your own, and if you come back tomorrow, you can read it yourself, and I won't bother. With that, the young priest turned and left.

"Tucker, get started!" As Zela left, Liang Ke snapped his fingers and beckoned Tucker to start looking for the book.

Liang Ke and Tucker spent the whole afternoon moving ladders, going up ladders, going down ladders, flipping books, then moving ladders, going up ladders, going down ladders, and flipping through books, from "The Revelation of God the Father" to "The Shameful Blasphemer" to "The Age of the Dead" , From documentary, to biography, to more unreliable novels, Liang Ke has read no less than twenty related books, but the information he gets is basically the same as what Achilles knows, but the individual details are not the same, but without exception, there is no research on the real reasons for Gandosa's practices, and there is no description of the later pursuit process, as if the past is over here.
