The battle was over, but the poisonous fumes released by the Spider Temple made the name of the ruined forbidden place even louder. The hundreds of fugitive slaves and outcasts who originally inhabited this place witnessed the battle between "Big Brother" Krut and the monsters, and most of them were convinced by him and were willing to follow in his footsteps to the Ash Lake, the paradise favored by the gods.

There are also a small number of fugitive slaves and outcasts, who are envious and jealous of Klut with extraordinary powers, and do not want to be manipulated in their free life. Besides, if it weren't for Kluter's visit, the monsters hidden in the depths of the Spider Temple might not have made such a big battle, so there were quite a few people who refused to go to Promised Land.

However, after these people left the ruins of the forbidden land, they went in different directions and took refuge in different wilderness settlements, and thanks to their blessings, through word of mouth, the legend of the Ash Lake, a paradise for sheltering homeless people and fugitive slaves, spread throughout the southern rainforest.

Kluter, who recruited his animal companion Spotted Leopard and turned into a "Leopard Warrior", led more than 400 people back to Ash Lake. The first priest, Temothy, was a little caught off guard, because the sudden increase in the number of people in the realm was somewhat insufficient.

The leopard warrior Klut had other ideas for this, and when the two were alone and talking secretly, he threw out a way to save food from the enemy. The first priest, Temothy, scoffed at this.

"You're crazy! You must be crazy! We're still very weak now, and we don't have any chance of winning against the direct forces of the upper city-states, especially the well-trained samurai. ”

Speaking of this, the first priest Temothy looked up at Klut, who had turned into a leopard warrior, and couldn't help but clench the snake staff in his hand, and nodded slightly: "A group of skinny alpacas can't defeat the wolves armed to the teeth, but under the leadership of a war leopard, they may be able to create miracles." ”

The panther warrior Klut looked at the first priest in surprise and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to change your mind. ”

The first priest Temothy did not speak, and only after a while did he laugh: "I see that the divine grace in you has far surpassed mine. The concentration of the spiritual light of faith is even twice as strong as mine. You are so close to God that you must have received God's will. The lake of ashes has suddenly doubled in population, and even if I personally presided over a call, it would not be possible to turn everyone into devout believers. ”

Speaking of this, the first priest Temothy suddenly understood: "It's okay that I didn't miss the noon prayer. Gather everyone to the altar, and I will do my best to carry out the call of faith, and then pick out the unqualified ones to be taken away by you. ”

The leopard warrior Klut was very satisfied with this, he knew better than anyone that the people he brought back to the Promised Land this time, if he didn't handle it well, he was afraid that he would destroy or even destroy the newly raised ash lake, and the weak and small seedlings needed support to thrive, and it was not a good thing to water and fertilize suddenly, cold treatment was the best choice for now.

Not long after, the first priest Temothy rang the bell for the afternoon prayer, and everyone immediately put down their work and hurried in the direction of the altar. As for the person who was brought in by the leopard warrior Klut, he had just finished washing his body, and after looking left and right curiously, he couldn't help but move with the epidemic.

More than 600 people were gathered near the altar, and the black pressed human head looked quite powerful, and it had long since lost the shabby atmosphere of the original lack of manpower.

The panther warrior Klut stood side by side with the first priest Temothy at the front, the closest to the altar, waiting for the sun to come to the highest point of the firmament, and knelt down without hesitation.

The others, as if commanded by an invisible command, fell to their knees with their hands folded on the ground, their foreheads pressed tightly against the backs of their hands, and listened to the prayer that the First Priest Temothy had led to chanting.

"The Great Savior Kukulkan, the Holy Sun, the Harness of the Wind and Rain, the Sleep of the Dead, the Fertility of the Land. Lord of the world, all things fall at your feet, sing praises of immortality, receive your grace and forgive our sins. At the time of death, it shelters our souls and arrives in true paradise. ”

When a wise person hears it and understands the true meaning of the gods, he will probably be able to repeat it. After listening to it twice or even three times, someone will be able to follow it word for word, and a faint aura of faith will appear on his body, which will resonate harmoniously with the altar, and the prayer will change from as thin as a mosquito to a loud voice, which is the power of the call of faith.

At first, it was still the altar that poured spiritual light downward, but when some people in the crowd gradually opened up their bodies and minds to embrace the gods and establish a weak line of faith, it was their turn to start giving feedback, and even producing a field effect, so that the concentration of spiritual light on the altar continued to increase.

A trickle of water can converge into a river, and more than 600 people who participated in the afternoon prayer, excluding one-third of the believers, more than 300 people were inspired by the faith to become believers in Kukulkan, the winged serpent.

There are more than 100 people left, for various reasons, who have been secretly resistant, and have never been able to become believers. The first priest, Temothy, saw with his own eyes that half of them were staunch unbelievers, forty or so hesitant swingers, and three of them were wicked men who had been immersed in darkness in body and mind.

In front of the gods, true and false believers knew at a glance that the first priest Temothy knew the specific result without looking back, and the leopard warrior Klut secretly sighed, and probably understood that the candidates who saved the food from the enemy fell on these unconverted people.

After a while, the sacred prayer was repeated three times, and the grass on both sides of the wall still fell on both sides, and the wicked who threw themselves into the darkness became even a little impatient.

The first priest, Temothy, knew this, and when the last prayer was over, he closed his mouth and stood up in silence, and the noon prayer came to an end.

The elderly in the Ash Lake Territory went to the open-air bathroom to wash up, and then received their own lunch in the nearby public cafeteria. There are sweet potatoes simmered in the hot embers, and you can feel the sweet aroma in the mouth, and the reindeer meat cooked in the stone pot, the surface of the broth floats with golden butter stars, and because of the addition of fragrant viburnum, which can remove the smell, not only does it not smell, but it has a strong fragrance. The indispensable vegetable is chili leaves, and after a few bird eggs, the egg blossoms that emerge from the soup are exceptionally beautiful and the taste is surprisingly refreshing.

Ye Zhiqiu's divine sense stared at the sharp pepper, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and secretly thought: "In countless historical texts, the vegetables and fruits that I want to introduce in every possible way are right in front of my eyes, and many places are at my fingertips. ”

With his current ability, it would be easy to take away some of the seeds and cross the void to return to Kyushu Heaven and Earth, but it was best to swallow this world in one bite, so there was no need to be so troublesome.

The Panther Warrior Klut took all the unbelievers, swingers, and villains into a formidable force. Not bad, referring to the spotted leopard who never leaves Kluet. The combat effectiveness of the team, sorry, is equivalent to none.

At the critical time, they did not collapse at the slightest touch, even if it was good! Fugitive slaves who are accustomed to being alone will not be trusted by anyone, nor will they entrust their backs to their partners. Even if three or five people who knew each other well, or were grouped together because of the smell of the same thing, they didn't even believe in the gods, how could they really obey the command of the leopard warrior Krut.

In the days of slavery city-states, armies consisted of a group of people with different intentions, ranging from samurai who wanted to win merit and cowards who were on the verge of battle. It's more of a bastard who automatically turns into a veteran oilman after a few battles.

The leopard warrior Klut looked back at the team behind him, and couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart: "Leading this group of people to save food from the enemy, not to mention the villages and towns near the city-state, I'm afraid that even the caravan can't break through, how can it be successful? A group of consumables that can be discarded? In order to ensure the purity of the Ash Lake territory?"

He didn't continue to think deeply, for the first priest Temothy's decision, the leopard warrior Klut still quite agreed, but these people believed in him and would leave the ruined city-state, if they led them to death, Klut would inevitably be a little sad.

"Whew...... Woo"

The team didn't know how long it had been in the dense forest, but the spotted leopard, who was at the forefront of the reconnaissance, suddenly let out a roar, apparently finding its target.

Maybe it's a patrol of a city-state, maybe it's a caravan traveling between different city-states, or maybe it's a regular army on the line, anything is possible until there is formal contact.
