-109- Charlotte's "new" believers
"What?"
Charlotte put down the goblet in her hand and raised her head instantly.
Seeing her react so much, Ness was slightly stunned, and then repeated a little weakly:
"Save ...... O Savior...... It's some northern tribe that worships legends......"
"Legends? What legend, what kind of savior is it? ”
Charlotte continued.
Nice spread his hands:
"I can't remember this a little bit, it was all hundreds of years ago, I just learned from some people in the north when I traveled, there are such tribes...... It was the first time I heard about it, so I was surprised at the time. ”
As he spoke, Ness looked at Charlotte again and said with some curiosity:
"Charlotte, do you care about this? Did I say something that awakened some memories of your past? ”
Charlotte hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly:
"Sort of."
Ness was immediately interested.
Its eyes lit up, and its amber cat's eyes were full of gossip.
However, before it could continue to ask, Charlotte had already dumped the new order on it:
"Okay, what has happened in the past few months, I already know almost everything, you go and call Yurst over, the conditions offered by the Ness clan should also be responded."
Seeing that Charlotte was reluctant to talk more, Ness had to hold back her curiosity.
It nodded, said "yes" honestly, and then withdrew with some regret.
Nice left, and Charlotte's expression fell into thought.
Savior......
I don't know if it's her sensitivity or what, this title, it's really hard not to remind her of the "title" she received from the free city-state when she crossed over for the second time.
Coupled with the hundreds of thousands of believers who suddenly came back from her time travel this time, it was really hard not to make her have some bizarre associations......
These hundreds of thousands of believers......
Wouldn't it be the remnant of faith after she crossed over for the second time and left traces in history?
The idea can be a bit narcissistic.
But with so many coincidences coming together, it's really hard not to make people so guessful.
Although Sebas's ability is not small, it is too exaggerated to turn 3,000 believers into nearly 500,000 in four months, but if it is not Sebas's doing, but these believers "already exist", it will be different.
"Whether it's or not, just take a look."
Looking at the manifestation of the personal status of the Blood Sacred Text, Charlotte muttered to herself.
The gods are able to project their own eyes through their connection with the believers.
Charlotte, who has the Blood Tome and is also a demigod herself, can do it.
The hundreds of thousands of extra believers were as dazzling as stars in her world of faith, and picking a few projected eyes was enough for her to figure out what was going on.
Thinking of this, Charlotte decisively sank into consciousness again.
The Light of the Blood Tome bloomed, and Charlotte's consciousness returned to the Night Castle, where she sat on the Blood Throne and summoned her own network of faith.
A little starlight spread in the castle, and a bright sea of stars appeared in front of Charlotte, the starlight of the star sea was red and gold, which was more magnificent than the crimson star sea representing blood.
That is the embodiment of the light of faith.
Charlotte's eyes fell on her own faith network, and she quickly distinguished the extra hundreds of thousands of believers.
There is no other, because in front of her, the existence of these believers is too unique.
Unlike those believers who existed before she fell asleep.
The believers Charlotte had before were shining brightly, and she could clearly feel her connection to the other party in Charlotte's senses.
But the extra hundreds of thousands of believers are different.
In Charlotte's senses, her connection with them was extremely vague, as if there was a veil in between, and as if there was no real effective connection.
She sensed it carefully, and knew what was going on, these believers were not really part of her faith network.
That's interesting.
The reason why believers become believers is that they are incorporated into their own belief network by the gods, establish a "connection" with the power of the gods, and are "protected" by the power of the gods.
How can you become a believer if you are not included in the faith network, if you are not connected to her power?
It's like a student at school.
Every student needs to be enrolled, and with a school status, they are a student in the school in order to attend classes in school.
But a group of unregistered "students" suddenly appeared in Charlotte's "school".
They never enrolled, and there was no file for them in the school, but they suddenly appeared in the school, and you don't even know how they came to be, and not only that, but they also had their own seats in the school, their own beds in the dorms, they could listen to the lectures, and they could interact with the "teachers".
But they just don't have a school status.
They also did not go to school, did not have a file in school, and did not hand in homework.
So the question is, where did these "students" come from?
If it weren't for the "second" crossing, Charlotte would have looked confused, but now, she has some guesses in her mind......
"Could it be...... These believers have been handed down by me after I traveled back in time to influence history?"
"My crossing...... Isn't it the completion of the original history, but also the change of history? ”
It's hard for Charlotte not to have such thoughts.
After all, if she really had such a group of believers, why didn't she come out before, but after she crossed over a second time and accepted the name of "Savior".
Of course, this was all her guess.
Whether these believers are descendants of the free city-states who believe in the "Savior", Charlotte has to "see" for herself.
Thinking of this, Charlotte looked for it in those "starlight".
"The strength of faith determines the brightness of the light, since I plan to check, I should choose the strongest light of faith, so that it will be easier to establish a connection and the loss of divine power will be less."
Charlotte pondered.
These believers do not have a complete connection to her faith network, and it will be more difficult and costly to cast their eyes than to use it.
At this time, it is natural to choose the most time-saving and labor-saving method.
Charlotte's spiritual power spreads, and after a search, she finally ...... In the depths of the sea of stars, I found the one with the brightest light.
Then, her divine power bloomed and she cast her consciousness into it......
The long-lost sense of "crossing" came.
As the divine power spread, Charlotte only felt her consciousness slowly rise, and then quickly went north.
The next moment, she "saw" a strange picture.
It was a magnificent strait valley.
Snow-covered mountains stretch into the sky, and glaciers on the peaks shimmer blue and flow downwards into surging waterfalls that plunge into the blue fjords.
Dense and ancient verdant forests stretch to the end of the world, with eagle-beaked falcons soaring through the treetops, and stags and brown bears roaming through the dense forests.
Beyond the forest, the long, rocky coastline stretches out like an endless serpentine line, and the village surrounded by tall wooden walls and fortress towers is smoky.
The houses in the village were made of rough timber and covered with heavy straw, and on the shore you could see wooden piers where long, majestic warships were docked.
Unlike the Castel Lord's galleons, those slender warships were slightly smaller in size and carved with lifelike dragon heads and mystical runes and elaborate motifs carved into their hulls.
Charlotte recognized the village's origins almost instantly.
If she wasn't mistaken, this was a traditional northern tribe that used to be a "pirate".
Just like the Vikings who feared Western Europeans in the Middle Ages in the Blue Star, in the world of Miria, there were also pirates who stopped the children of the Unettes hundreds of years ago, and that was the Pirates of the North.
In that era of piracy, with superb navigation technology and strong military force, the northerners often raided the shores of the Falling Star and Crescent Kingdoms on their warships, plundering huge amounts of wealth, and even pirates even settled directly on the coasts of the two countries and even invaded.
Even the current Falling Star royal family, the Roman family, if you trace the genealogy, are all descendants of the pirates of the North.
Although in the past hundred years, with the development of magic technology and the alchemy industry, the cities of the Yunette countries have become more and more difficult to defeat by poorly equipped pirates, and the northern pirates have also declined, but in the northern Grand Duchy, there are still many of these tribes.
Of course, they have stopped pirating and turned to hunting monsters in the ocean.
Now they are more like Warcraft hunters roaming the seas.
Combined with the books she had seen about the North, Charlotte quickly determined the identity of the village.
Only, the question arises, why is the field of vision in the sky?
Charlotte wondered, but ...... The next moment she knew why.
With a dragon's roar, the view overlooking the strait suddenly descended towards the village.
Charlotte was stunned.
The believer she "watched" this time was on the back of a dragon.
Charlotte's divine power moved slightly, and her vision quickly expanded, and she quickly saw the appearance of the believer clearly.
It was a girl who looked fifteen or sixteen years old.
She was dressed in a brown linen robe with simple leather armor, a helmet decorated with feathers on her head, and a variety of ornaments hanging from her body, typical of a northern pirate.
Underneath her, riding a majestic bipedal wyvern, the wyvern did not look very old, and should not be an adult for a long time.
"Odosis! Let's go back! ”
The girl patted the wyvern on the back and shouted a name that almost made Charlotte stagnant.
With a long roar, the wyvern circled twice above the village before slowly descending.
Seeing the flying dragon that landed, the village was full of chickens and dogs, and people avoided it.
"Astrid! What are you doing! Don't hurry up and get me down! ”
A majestic voice came, with a bit of annoyance.
Hearing this, the people consciously moved to the sides, and a bearded Northern warrior wearing a black robe appeared in Charlotte's field of vision.
"Father!"
At the sight of the warrior, the girl rejoiced.
She jumped off the dragon's back, and then said cheerfully:
"Father! See? I've been able to fly with Odosia! I can also participate in battles and hunt monsters for the village like a man! ”
"Nonsense! Hunting for Warcraft, even the most powerful warriors in the village are ready to fight for their lives every time they travel, what kind of excitement are you a girl fooling around! ”
The northern warrior's face darkened, and he reprimanded sharply.
After speaking, looking at the girl's excited appearance, which was obviously completely unanswered, the warrior let out a long sigh and said:
"Astrid, don't think about going to sea, the emissaries from Castel and the representatives of the Church have arrived in the north, and I have agreed with the elders and the patriarchs of the various tribes to accept the invitation of His Majesty the Grand Duke to represent the Alliance at the upcoming banquet in Wintercastle."
Listening to the warrior's words, the smile on the girl's face suddenly froze.
Her face changed, and her delicate little face was stained with anger:
"Why! Why did you accept the invitation of the Grand Duke? Do you really want to accept his harsh conditions and abandon our proud faith and relatives! ”
