Chapter 260: The Fatal Flaw of the Land of Three Rivers
After this one is ruled out, he can only think about the gods related to death and immortality.
Jecob, the Death Recorder, was one of the oldest gods, and had great divine powers during the time of the Netharel Empire, but this lord, disgusted with his duties, successively transitioned his priesthood to Bane, Baal, and Mirkor.
These three, at their peak, were all powerful divine powers.
This shows how strong Jerk was at his peak.
But all three of them are a thing of the past.
And Jerk now has only a faint divine power left, only maintaining fatalism, funerals and tomb keepers, a few relatively unpopular death-related priesthoods, and watching everything in the world with a cold eye.
There is not so much cumbersome thing to build the temple of this god, because he is indifferent to everything, including his own believers and beliefs.
Don't think about getting any assistance from him in the future.
A god who has no desires and no desire and is difficult to reap benefits, even Gavin is not willing to invest too much energy and attention.
As for Kranvo, the god of the dead, he was made a god by mortals along with Shirek and Midnight last year.
It's just that compared to the god of conspiracy in the sky, Hirek, and the goddess of magic, Midnight, he is still a little unknown.
Because most of the priesthood related to death was taken away by Ciric, he is now just a small substitute, a small transparent, and it will be ten years later that he has really come to the front of the stage and become a powerful divine power.
The war between Bane and Ciric broke out, and he took the opportunity to take away the entire priesthood of death, and the conflict between him and Ciric was also put on the table.
Believing in him now is a send-off in the snow, and it is easy to win his attention and favor.
The only problem is that this god of the dead was a warrior with a full sense of justice during his lifetime, and even after becoming a god of death, he did not completely reverse it, and he was extremely disapproving of life extension and undead creatures, and his priest advocated the destruction of all undead creatures and let them enter the cycle of life and death.
As for good and evil, it is not within their consideration, since all immortal existences break the cycle of life and death, which is abnormal.
In this respect, the Vizeme estate is clearly at odds with it.
When it comes to life extensions, Gavin thinks of a god who has the opposite attitude to Cranvo.
The Healer of the Firmament, the Poison of Death, the Lord of Flesh and Bones, and the Doom of Pain and Plague, Jasanapur.
He is a good deity whose main priesthood is healing, necromancy, carnal knowledge, and steadfast will.
He approves of the use of all kinds of good means to prolong their lives, including becoming undead, as long as this transformation does not carry the curse of eternal hunger and thirst.
The existence of Estelle's mother and daughter and Black Heather is naturally within the scope of his acceptance.
The only problem is that he is not a native god of Faerun, but a multiverse.
Although his faith had spread to Ferron, it was very narrow, with only a very small number of preachers, most of whom had never even heard of his name.
To build his temple, there must be at least one of his priests, or it would be an empty building.
Where to find a priest of the Healer of the Sky is the biggest problem.
Gavin, who was thinking about the comparison for a while, did not make a decision at the first time, but turned to Anna and said: "If you have time, let Andrew, take you around the neighborhood, and see if there is a suitable place to build a real Ilmat church, it is best to suppress the negative energy of the manor, but it cannot be completely covered." ”
As soon as these words came out, it meant that Gavin had completely given up his plan to build a temple of goodness in the Vizeme Manor.
Even the temple related to the god of death is not ready to be built in it in a short period of time.
Rather, it is through external repression, and confrontation is carried out.
"Great, I've wanted to do this for a long time." Anna's eyes sparkled with excitement, but in the next second, she was a little entangled and said, "What about the dragon oak collar?" I've managed to make some progress over there. ”
"That's just to give you evangelistic experience." Gavin said lightly, "The true belief of the kobold is still the dragon, and only the dragon, and those kobold believers that you have cultivated are all pseudo-believers, and I can seduce them away with a bottle of dragon blood potion."
Human beings and races of similar nature are the focus of our preaching and training, and I will further increase your resources in the future, and try to help me train a large number of real pastors. ”
There was no way to train a kobold priest before.
As it turns out, they are not the material for this at all.
Even if they formed an effective kobold medical team, they did not rely on faith, but on the magical abilities awakened through the three major rituals of dragon vein, dragon blood, and dragon transformation, and they still relied on their own dragon blood.
Now that there are better options, it is natural for Anna to take a break and focus her energy on more worthwhile directions.
"Ah......" The little face of the young priest suddenly fell, she was a person who missed the old love very much, and she was a little reluctant to cultivate the kobold priests she had so hard cultivated, after all, they gave herself a lot of help in refining magic potions.
"Don't worry, when the church is built, they will be the first to be dispatched." Gavin gave Anna a reassurance, "After all, in many ways, they work better than ordinary people, especially before you raise a true priest. ”
"I know Mr. Gavin, I think most thoroughly, and I'll choose a site early tomorrow morning." Anna said excitedly.
Gavin didn't leave the matter to the young pastor alone.
The next morning he set out with her and circled the vineyards of Vizeme.
In the end, the site of the temple was chosen on the other side of the vineyard.
It is three and a half kilometers away from the Vizeme estate in a straight line.
It was chosen to be built here because the Vizeme estate was already destined to be unsuitable for permanent residents, and even for the surrounding area.
It was not so much about choosing a site for the temple of Ilmat as it was about the location of a new town.
New towns will revolve around this temple.
Since it is a town of the future, it is natural to consider the cheapness and safety of the residents.
It is located by water to the west and by road to the east, and is located on the way to the Vizeme estate.
Since it is a dry project, it is indispensable to transfer kobolds from the Spring Sprout Forest, and in this regard, they are professional.
It doesn't matter if they haven't built a human house before.
They can make holes and build roads first.
They needed to build a home for themselves on the side of the Vizeme estate, and they needed to lay the sewers for the future town of Vizeme.
For large-scale project construction, the kobold who is needed is not eight out of ten.
Gavin initially planned to transfer eight hundred kobolds over, and then let the lord of Virginia send people back and forth, which would be inappropriate.
She can send up to three trips a day, each trip with eight people, and she has to send 800 kobolds for a month.
If these 800 kobolds had traveled overland, and then they had been transported by halfling fleets from the Ashaba, it would have taken less than ten days.
How to choose, it goes without saying.
Even if it's teleportation, it's not a panacea.
A portal that can be used in large quantities is a good thing.
It's a pity that the Lord of Virginia doesn't have a second Dragon Oak Mother Tree seed in his hands.
The construction of ordinary portals is not a matter of high cost, but a question of whether it will be built.
Most of the portals that Faeron is using today are relatively historical, dating from the Elven or Nethrel Empires, and only a handful have been built in modern times.
Relatively commonly, it is a teleportation circle that uses magic constancy to constantly.
It's just that the teleportation circle is a nine-ring spell, and there are only a handful of people who are proficient in it, and they are not willing to build it on a large scale.
If you want to cast a teleportation circle normally, you only need the corresponding casting material.
Once a permanent teleportation circle is created, the caster's experience is consumed, and the lower the usage conditions, the more experience is consumed, and vice versa.
Gavin didn't crouch at the Vizeme Manor, waiting for the kobold engineering team to arrive.
Instead, on the third day, he got on a halfling houseboat and went down the Ashaba River.
Avery Chief, the leader of the halflings, prepares to travel to the Valley of Feathers to buy cotton for Gavin.
Originally, Gavin had to do it entirely with Vito Avery.
Later, I calculated that I had enough time, and the way to travel was convenient enough, and at the same time, I decided to take a trip myself.
Nothing else, just talking about the information gathered along the way made Gavin make the trip worthwhile.
Descend from Yebon Pond to this section of the Black Feather Bridge.
The north shore belongs to the Battle Valley, and the south bank belongs to the Taser Valley.
It's just that the two sides are different.
On the side of the Battle Valley, most of the places are alluvial plains, and there are settlements and towns, but they are scattered and very scarce.
On the Taser Valley, the first half is similar to the Battle Valley, with large impact plains, many settlements, and many places, all of which have been reclaimed into fertile farmland, but after the second half, the Don Hills are across the river, and the high hills and high ridges are undulating, making Gavin a little back to the illusion of rocks.
"On this side of the Battle Valley, there is obviously a large area of fertile land, and there is the convenience of the Ashaba River, why are the residents and arable land here so scarce?" As he was about to leave Battle Valley, Gavin couldn't help but ask.
"My lord, I'm just seeing the good side now." The leader of the halflings explained with a smile, "After the rainy season in Komanso, the water volume of the three rivers will skyrocket at the same time, and the water surface of the entire Yevon pond will be raised by one meter, and the adults should be able to imagine what the water here will become."
As you can see from the terrain just now, here in the Taser Valley, the Don Hills are their natural river embankments.
However, there is no shelter on this side of the battle valley, and it is common for the river to burst its banks and flood dozens of kilometers of surrounding land.
In contrast, there are also large tracts of fertile land on the Rosavile Way, and there are merchants coming and going, and lord warriors patrolling.
There is no shortage of rain in the valley, so there is no need to worry about irrigation.
Under the two phases, if you are a lord, how do you choose? ”
As if thinking of something, Avery added: "Not as a lord, but as an ordinary farmer, the construction of a hundred and fifty kilometers of embankments is not something that one or two farmers can do. ”
The halfling leader's implication was obvious, he believed that the new lord of the Vizeme Manor was capable of doing this.
It only took less than two ten days for the other party to make the Vizeme Manor look new from top to bottom.
If he were given another three or five years, what changes would he bring to the Land of the Three Rivers, to the Battle Valley, and even to the surrounding valleys?
I can't imagine it.
Avery was looking forward to it.
Because it means that they will have more job opportunities, more convenient services, and a better life for themselves.
"It seems that if you want to develop this place, the first task is to build an embankment and control the river." Gavin was thoughtful.
Even for him, this is no small project.
However, this project can be carried out in sections based on the terrain.
The main problem now is that he doesn't have much idea about this rainy season in Komanso, and he doesn't know what the Asaba River will look like after the flooding, so he can't rush into construction.
You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
