Chapter 688: Serge

With the reopening of the Lost Lands, Arkham immediately became the focal core of the entire Sword Bay and even the Northlands, on the one hand, the city was indeed quite luxurious and majestic, even surpassing the capital of the entire Faeron World Kingdom. On the other hand......... Many churches are in Arkham and have begun to build their own church forces.

Of course, it's not surprising that this happens in general, but the problem is that there are so many temples in Arkham that it can be said that almost all the good and neutral Church of the Gods have built their temples in Arkham. There are even rumors that in the dark corner of the city's underground, there are temples of evil gods such as Shar and Lauvita.

This is a very unusual thing for a nascent territory, because generally speaking, it is rare for a large number of god churches to appear together, which naturally arouses the suspicion and concern of many forces.

Duanmuhuai, of course, knew that the nature of these churches in Arkham was actually equivalent to an embassy. So he also gave them land according to the application of these churches, and the buildings on it were naturally built by the believers of the various gods themselves.

Naturally, this has also made many chambers of commerce a windfall, although in general, people are not particularly concerned about the size of churches and shrines.

But......... It's a different story in Arkhamco, okay!

The sacredness and majesty of this sprawling Gothic-style city makes people tremble just by looking at it, and in this case, if your church or temple is not built well, isn't it just a disgrace to your own gods?

Not to mention that the city is full of various gods and churches right now, although most of them are good gods or gods of the neutral camp, but who wants to be compared!

As a result, these churches also threw a lot of money, especially rich churches like Loshanda and Woking, and threw away the gold coins as if they didn't need money, hired the best construction teams, bought the best building materials, and demanded that the most gorgeous and noble buildings must be built.

If we use civilization as an analogy, Arkham City is currently completely in the style of religious victory.

Not only that, but the unique way of life in Arkham City is also the envy of many poor people. In general, in other cities, it is difficult for poor people to find a job to support their families, let alone buy a house. However, the policy in Arkham City is completely different from that of other places, as long as the poor people in Arkham City Center find work and sign a contract, they are automatically allocated a room, similar to public rental housing. Rent is automatically deducted from wages, for example, if a poor person gets a job sweeping the streets in Arkham, then he can get a public rental house, and then he can live a certain level of life as long as he works hard to save money.

And the security of Arkham City is also quite good, although it is not at the level of the road and the night is not closed, but it is rare to see a public security caseβ€”β€”β€” this is also normal, there are angels flying in the sky, where do ordinary thieves have the courage to do it in front of angels.

Even if they weren't afraid of angels, the ruthless iron fist of the night guard wasn't something anyone could withstand.

Because of this, Arkham City also immediately attracted the attention of many wealthy merchants and nobles, and many merchants considered living hereβ€”β€”β€” after all, compared to the chaos and danger of other cities, a place like Arkham City was safe and secure, and there were a bunch of gods and churches, not to mention at least the safety.

"At present, many chambers of commerce have applied through diplomatic channels to buy land in Arkham City to build estates........."

"Purpose? We're not a resort. ”

"It is mainly used for the families of the children to live."

"Oh, that's right, it's using Arkham City as a safe."

Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, of course, those big nobles and big businessmen will not have this kind of demand, after all, they all belong to the head dragon, the kind that calls the wind and rain on their own territory, so they don't have to worry about these problems at all. But it's hard to say about the second-class ones, especially in the Northland, where the situation is complicated, and many people are also worried about whether their families will be affected, if they can live in Arkham City, not to mention anything else, at least safety can be guaranteed.

"As always, tell them that Arkham's land is owned by the Inquisition, it is rented and not sold, it can be leased for a long time, and the construction blueprint must be approved before it can be built."

"Yes."

Mysterina nodded, shaking the shaggy ears above her head. Her Royal Highness the forest princess's long supple golden hair and ears are indeed beautiful, and Duanmu Huai can't help but want to pinch them.

"Then came Bambi's report that Shar's church had been built and put into use at Block 13 Underground......... Is it really okay? Isn't Shar an evil god? ”

"Fighting against the evil god is not as simple as a battle between good and evil, although Shar is a god of the evil camp......... But the feeling of not wanting this world to be destroyed is the same, after all, this world is destroyed, she will either run away or become a slave of the Chaos Evil God, I don't think Shar has this meaning. ”

In fact, the one who hates the invasion of the Chaos Evil God the most is the gods of the evil camp, after all, they are considered local mafia, and your foreign gang wants to annex the local gang, have you asked us?

If the gods of the good camp are still like government intelligence departments such as police stations or secret services, then the gods of the evil camp are basically mafia gangs, the former have to have some scruples about doing things, and the latter is not bad if he doesn't give you black and eat black, and you still want me to bow down, don't even think about it!

Especially the evil god with powerful divine power like Sha'er, which is more similar to the nature of the leading big brotherβ€”β€”β€” other younger brothers may see the wind and rudder or betray or something, but a boss like Sha'er has no choice, so he can only go all the way to the dark.

Therefore, Duanmu Huai acquiesced to Sha'er's behavior of building a church under his house, and as long as she did not openly cause trouble and confront the court, that Duanmu Huai would not care about her.

But if she dares to interfere in the affairs of the court......... Hehe, I hope this goddess of the night won't be so stupid.

"And the application from the Heim Church........."

"Just say no, don't Heim."

Duanmuhuai waved his hand, the Haim Church had applied several times, but Duanmuhuai would not let this group of bastards who had more than enough success and more than enough to lose come in. The church of Heim was loved by rulers in other cities because they could help each other keep the law and order, and they were good dogs.

But Duanmu Huai doesn't need this group of good dogs, and the night guards under him are not stronger than this?

Thiel also came to intercede for himself, but Duanmu Huai really didn't have a good impression of Haim at all, this thing was completely a dog skin plaster, standing in a neutral position, doing all fucking order and evil, and looking like Lao Tzu was conscientious and had a clear conscience, he was really fucking a bitch and set up an archway, disgusting to death.

In Duanmuhuai's opinion, Haim is really not as good as the gods of those evil camps, so people have written the words "I am evil" on their faces. If someone is still fooled by this, it is purely self-deserved. Just like those victims of phone scams, the police can't stop them and they have to send money, so what can they do?

That would have to wait for her to jump off on her own.

Heim is a man who is a man and a prostitute behind his back, and on the surface he shouts for freedom and democracy.

What a shame.

"And ......... Application from the Santarin Society and the Chalder Council of Red Mages. ”

Mistrina turned the page again.

"The Santarim Society has requested a stronghold in Arkham City, and the Council of Red Mages of Cellr wants to establish a trading base belonging to the Red Mages."

"Hmph, let them sneak in and engage in smuggling, don't approve it."

Duanmu Huai can't get involved with the Santalin Society, which doesn't even pay attention to Zhuoer's business as long as he gives money, and that group of red-robed bald heads.

Neither of these is a good thing.

"One more thing, the red-robed mages would like to have a magical exchange with Arkham City..............."

"Ann is going to do it, right?"

Looking at Mistrina's embarrassed expression, Duanmu Huai suddenly knew what the problem was, this kind of thing like a magic exchange meeting, especially the magic exchange between different worlds, is simply Ann's favorite, otherwise Mistrina would not have deliberately brought it up after she had already denied it.

"Yes, Miss An is looking forward to this, and thinks that it will be interesting to have a magic exchange meeting with the Red Robe Mage Society."

"That's because she doesn't know how notorious those bald heads are."

Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, the reputation of Serre's red-robed mage is not much worse than that of the devil in hell, but ......... It's also a good opportunity.

"Okay, I approve it."

Duanmu Huai thought for a moment and nodded.

"I'd like to see what those bald red robes are going to do to fool us."

"Next, there are some ............... Well, not so good things. ”

"Huh?"

Looking at Mistrina's spitting appearance, Duanmu Huai also looked at her with some curiosity.

"Is there anything that's so hard to talk about?"

"No, ah, it's not ......... It's just that there have been rumors from the outside world recently, and there are quite a few complaints about Arkham City's policy of not allowing aliens to enter............"

The Lost Lands is the territory of the Inquisition, and Arkham City is the city of the Inquisition, so naturally, according to the requirements of the Inquisition, aliens, heretics and demons are not allowed to enter Arkham City. The latter two are easy to say, but the alien is a bit troublesome, after all, the criterion for the Inquisition to determine whether it is a human is the skull, and there are many races on the Feren continent whose heads are not like humans, and they are basically turned away when they try to enter the Lost Lands.

And it's no wonder these races complain.

"Leave them to death."

Duanmu Huai snorted coldly.

"This is the order of the Inquisition, and what the outside says is their business, and it has nothing to do with us."

"Yes, finally......... Intelligence gathering efforts are ongoing, and no signs of an invasion similar to the Chaos Gods have been found. ”

"Not now, not necessarily in the future."

Duanmu Huai sighed, and at this time, suddenly the communicator sounded, and then Akot's voice appeared in Duanmu Huai's ears.

"Report to Uncle Inquisitor, the reconnaissance fleet has locked on its target!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai's eyes lit up and he hurriedly stood up.

"Very good, I'll go now!"
