390 Chebury
Santil Fort is the most famous port city in the Moon Sea, and the first human town on the Moon Coast, in history, it once became a large city with a population of 50,000, but since the invasion of the evil gods, the Santil Fort ended its heyday in the overturning war, after several massacres due to the war of faith, the city became the most inconspicuous of the port cities along the Moon Sea, and the prosperity was far behind the other harbor cities.
With a population of less than 20,000 today, the Fort of Santil was not prosperous in any way, and its geographical location made it stumble after the Great Depression - it was too far from the mouth of the Lisb, so the prosperous Falling Star Sea Trade Route did not benefit it, and the original prosperity of the Fort Santil was due to the gems and minerals in the mountains north of the harbor, and even now, the mining industry is still the backbone of the city's economy.
Although its economic status is declining and its population is not large, the long and complex historical background has made Santil Fort a city with a special status in the Moon Sea - it seems that most of the people of the Moon Sea agree that this city is their spiritual home - with its huge popularity, when it comes to the Moon Sea, the first city that the Faeron people think of is probably here.
After the most recent war, the Santarim Society, blessed by Bann, expelled the church and priesthood of the Prince of Lies, and re-established the city's dominance, and with the expansion of the majesty of the Black Hand Lord, the current largest city in the Moon Sea, the economic and shipping center, the city of Murmaster located at the mouth of the Moon Sea, was also attached to the Santarim Society.
Subsequently, either under strong pressure, or because of the inseparable relationship with the Santil people, or because of the similarity of style, the leaders of Far Mountain City and Melwater City also expressed a certain degree of recognition of the Santarim Society's dominance in the Moon Sea and formed an alliance of interests.
Since then, among the five major port cities in the Moon Sea area, except for the city of Sentia, which has a special background, which still regards the Santarin Society as nothing and acts as a discordant note, all of them have been included in the sphere of influence of the Santarin Society.
In the case of the devastating devastation of the Bane Church after the turbulent years, the Black Hand Tyrant returned to the Kingdom of God and re-established his prestige in just a few years, and Bane's power has grown to such an extent that the Black Hand Lord's own priesthood has great authority and faith in this world, and on the other hand, the leaders of the Church are also indispensable.
In the mouth of the apostle of the good deity, the name of Ferzol Chebury is definitely an evil devil who deserves to die a million times, the leader of the Bane Church has witnessed the decline and prosperity of the church in his leadership career, and has also experienced the death and nirvana of the Black Hand Lord, and the harpist, the red-robed mage, the Shade, the Lansendale church, Having dealt with the Church of Sheric and other organizations, he took Manson's fall into the void and took the Santarim Church into his hands, and absorbed several branch churches that were born during the period of religious turmoil, and since then the various forces of the Bane Church have been merged into one in his hands, and he has become the most powerful leader in the history of the Bane Church.
Under the leadership of this cunning and powerful figure, almost the entire Moon Sea fell into the divine power of the Black Hand Lord, but Chebury still did not stop.
As Bane's apostle and chosen person, Verzor Cherbury's purpose was simple: to rule the continent of Feren by power and spread Bane's faith to every corner of the world.
Of course, as a sane and cunning figure, he knew that it was very difficult and almost impossible to achieve this goal, but Cherbury was not discouraged by this, but worked hard to increase the influence of the church in Faeron through a series of plans, and achieved the wish of the Black Hand Lord step by step.
The conflict with the port of Carrante was no accident, for a few years earlier Chebury had seen the importance of the trade route between the Moon Sea and the Falling Star Sea, which had not yet emerged in power at a time when the economy was underdeveloped, but the prosperity of Murmaster and the fading of the Forts of Santyr reminded him that Murmaster was on the west shore of the mouth of the Risb.
However, it was not enough to just master the Moon Sea and the Inland Sea, Cherberry understood that the trade route between the Moon Sea and the Falling Star Sea had to pass through the two narrow passages of the Rees Strait, and as long as this passage was blocked at the Falling Star Sea, the trade between the two inland seas would be interrupted, and for the Moon Sea, this waterway was undoubtedly the throat of trade.
However, this choke point is not in the hands of the people of the Moon Sea, the southern part of the Moon Sea, in the hands of the Santarin Society, Ilfran is only a sparsely populated town, the surrounding terrain is treacherous, the coast is narrow, not too many ships can be moored, let alone huge development, and the coast of Comanso to the west is not suitable for building a military base.
Further south is the Vast Land, and as long as the navy of Port Carrante blocks the sea route in the center of the Dragon Bay, it will also make the Moon Sea very uncomfortable.
As a result, Cherbury had long hoped to take the city and the entire land into his hands, not only to strengthen the power of the Bann Church, but also to gain more control over the inland seas trade.
But this war, which is happening under his nose, is not what Cherberry wants- He hasn't dealt with the beginning and end of the Moon Sea and the Inner Sea, although the current Moon Sea is under the control of the Bann Church, but the internal undercurrent is still fierce, except for Sentia, who is in sharp opposition to the Santarin Society, Melwater City, which is forced to succumb to the forces of the Santarin Society within the system, is also waiting for an opportunity to find the flaws of the Santarin Society in order to bite back and drive the forces of the Santarin Society out of the Moon Sea.
But so the war began.
This is also helpless, because Ciric's forces are trying to occupy the port of Calant, which is absolutely intolerable to the Bann Church.
Due to the usurpation of the priesthood by Shirek, so not long ago, there were still some Hirek believers lurking in the Santarin Order, and after the efforts of Chebury and a group of minions, there is not even a single dog in the Santarin Church that believes in Shirek, and the hatred between the two churches can be seen.
If the dark said is allowed to grasp the trade throat between the Falling Star Sea and the Moon Sea, the trouble caused to Chebury can be imagined.
Now that the war had begun, Cherberry had to find a way to achieve victory, sending troops, mages, and spies to keep an eye on the opposition in several cities, and on the other hand, he mobilized his troops and calmly arranged them to prepare for the port to be taken down.
In addition to this, he also had to guard against the spies of the Church of Shirek who might infiltrate the Santarim Society, and Chebury was very wary of this, he knew very well that the apostles of the Prince of Lies could not detect them with detection spells.
Now, Verzor Cheebery's nerves tightened over the sudden war
At this time, a mysterious figure that suddenly appeared would naturally attract his attention, and he walked into the tower of the ** master Mansong, and now the owner of this tower lives in a simple place, and even the main body has escaped from the main material realm - the copy of this ** master knows very well in his heart that the person who launched the static clone at the beginning did not want to save his life, but was completely uneasy and kind, and the main purpose was to disturb the world with his clone.
The scattered copies increased the chance of exposing his methodology exponentially, and now the only remaining Manson clone on the continent of Feren somewhat understood that this world was very dangerous to him, and he must not easily show his head without being fully prepared.
Therefore, he wisely gave all the power he had in the Santarin Society to Chebury, and only used the projection to travel around the area controlled by the Santarin Society, training some mage apprentices for the church on the one hand, and nervously preparing for the revision of the methodology on the other hand, for the sake of long-term planning, it was only a matter of time before the methodology was reset.
Now, Cherberry walked to the depths of his room, in the original bedroom, sitting on the soft rough chair like the master, enjoying the wine and dessert handed by the apprentice with peace of mind, but only took a shallow sip, and saw the appearance of the ** master:
"Are you really ready to reset your methodology?hmm, that's not good news, why don't you give it to your master?" Cherberry looked at the face, feeling slightly awkward in his heart: "Being a voter is enough to eliminate all your worries. ”
With the cover of divine power, the mage's methodology will not be broken, but Manson shook his head: "Chebery, this is the rule of the mage. ”
"Rules?" Cherberry smirked, "I've never heard of such rules. ”
"Rules don't need to be spoken. Manson held up a finger: "Real mages are doing it." ”
"Lady of Magic's?" Cherbury paused and looked at Manson expectantly, awaiting his answer.
"They...... Not pure wizards. Manson shook his head, "There's nothing to discuss, Cherberry, I know why you're here." ”
"Hmm?" the de facto ruler of the moon sea stopped.
"I can't see through that person, he looks like an ordinary person, at most he has some brute strength, and it's not strange to have that kind of martial arts. Manson frowned: "If it's fake, then his disguise must be amazing, I can't see through it." ”
"Even you can't see through it?" Cherberry's eyelids jumped: "Aren't you a ** teacher?"
Although he is a voter, Chebury himself does not learn spells and does not understand much of these things, and this kind of technical work is still to be done by Manson.
"It's not necessarily arcane that can't be seen, anyway...... If he is disguised, he must be very clever in disguise, and I don't think it is surprising that the followers of Ciric have such a disguise ability. Manson shook his head again: "Of course, it is also possible that he is not disguised. ”
"That is, we don't know if he is in disguise?" Cherberry shook his head.
It would not be wise to judge this mysterious creature as a believer in Ciric because of a suspicion - if this man was just an ordinary person who didn't know the height of the sky, it would be okay to kill him directly, at most he would be an ant, but this guy was not an ant, but a poisonous snake that had eaten almost all of the rulers of Port Calant, and if he acted rashly, it would not taste good to be bitten in return.
"Of course, but Chebberry, there's a piece of news you should refer to. Mansson paused: "I went to Starlight City through a spell to investigate. ”
"Oh?" Chebury raised his eyebrows, it was not too much to make such a big move against such a mysterious person, he knew that since Manson mentioned it, then there would be a result.
"Dan Flynn, the merchant does exist, and the information basically matches the one who appeared in Port Calant, and I have found no flaw through the information that these agents have urgently gathered. ”
Cherberry's eyelids jumped, and he fell silent.
Penny's disguise was carefully considered, and the disguise object he found, Dan Flynn, was rebellious, had a young and beautiful little lover, and knew a little martial arts,—— no one knew where he learned it, which gave Penny free play, and his disguise was to negotiate directly with Dan Flynn, so that he and his family would go to sea to do business, but as soon as the ship left, it had been arranged by the Dan Flynn family, and Dan Flynn was hidden.
Of course, this kind of disguise is seamless, and in the hearts of Dan Flynn's family, they also know nothing about the truth about Li Dai Taozhuang, and of course the investigation of the Santalin Society secret agents cannot find any loopholes.
The ruler of the Moon Sea raised his ten fingers, his eyebrows furrowed.
It is impossible to confirm whether this person is a secret agent of Ciric, but that amazing martial art also has a high use value, and it is a bit of a dilemma for a while.
Manson's projection waited for his response, and after a long time, Chebury opened his eyes: "The man you sent to spy on him, is it reliable?"
"Quite reliable. Manson smiled slightly: "She will carefully watch this person's every move and report the situation at all times." ”
"Then don't act rashly. Cherberry tapped on the table and pondered, "Since we can't tell at a glance whether it's true or not, we're going to have to look at this fellow more, Mr. Manson, and hope your students don't let up." ”
"Of course. Manson nodded, and the projection vanished into the air.
"If there is a horse's foot, sooner or later it will be exposed......" Cherbury raised his eyebrows as Manson disappeared, and he thought to himself.
He thought that if this person was an apostle of Ciric, he would have some plans to approach Santarin, such as using the actions of Port Carrante to win the trust of the Santarin, and then bite back in a naval battle, so that the hope of the Santarim Society to occupy the Port of Caronte would be in vain.
And if you plan to do it for a long-term purpose, you will reach out to the Santarin Society, and the war in front of you will be used to win the trust of the Santalin Society.
If neither is the ......
Cherberry smiled, then he was very interested to know, what was this man approaching the Santarim Society for?
Profit?
This excuse is reasonable...... Yes, reasonable......
Chebury gradually stopped laughing.
Not everyone can make a profit from Bane
