  Chapter 892 Cooperation with Huaiguang Church (6000)

  Terra 775, May 18th, Xiahui City.

The Victory Square, decorated with lights, is full of residents and tourists who come here admiringly. Because the foundation stone laying ceremony on June 1 is approaching, pieces of colorful curtains have been hung on the street, and vendors setting up stalls along the street enthusiastically Sell ​​your delicious snacks.

  The sanitation of these roadside stalls is mostly not very up to standard, but the aroma and lively atmosphere that make the index finger move, it is really hard to control your hands.

  A horse convoy that looked ordinary in appearance and didn't even have any extra decorations came to the city entry checkpoint—although Xiahui City didn't have a city wall, there was still a management office on the avenue that inspected the convoy.

  After passing the review, the envoys of the Huaiguang Church came to Xiahui City in such an ordinary carriage.

   "It seems that the lord already knows we are coming."

  Sworn Archbishop is a 'girl' wearing a red and black sacrificial robe.

The robes on her body are layered, black obsidian and light blue are blended together, making her look complicated and magnificent, and she looks at most fourteen or fifteen years old, her long hair dances in the wind like black flames, but her eyes are dead. Normal ice blue.

   And if you look carefully, you can see that the sworn archbishop has a pair of black panther-like animal ears in his hair. She is a filmmaker.

  Accompanying this person was a burly bald man who looked a bit like a Milosian. He closed his eyes, but there was light shooting from them, and he could vaguely see the bright golden eyes under his eyelids.

   Archbishop Tianyan nodded slightly: "I sense that this city is enveloped by an invisible force that I can't capture, probably some kind of psionic magic lock, or the superior's inscription circle."

   "The Prophet and the King of the Mountain are waiting for us beyond the Silver Peak."

  Turning his head, the archbishop swore that although his face was expressionless, he said softly to all the members of the envoy: "You can act freely first, and Tianyan and I will pay a visit—the banquet can be eaten, but there is no need for such a big fanfare."

Yinfeng is the cliff peak where the Lord's Mansion is located. Although it is only one or two hundred meters high, it is still enough to overlook the whole city. Missions' banner, the banquet is ready.

  Obviously, the Huaiguang party did not notify in advance, but the prophet did know that they would arrive today.

  Everyone responded, and the two archbishops turned into streamers and disappeared.

  The seven people who were allowed to move freely were divided into two groups. They smiled and looked at each other, made a few gestures, and then moved separately.

   "It's really hard to imagine that this is the former Lai'an City..."

In the three-person team, the white-haired dragon nun stared at the city in amazement. Yingguang was not a person who made a fuss, but rather she was very calm, even in the face of something that could scare people. The remains of the Alien God who called out will not change color.

  But for some things, the more contrast there is, the stronger the sense of contrast.

Sister Yingguang still remembers that when she first came to Laian City to investigate the disappearance of the caravan, it was only a small town with a population of tens of thousands. Some gloomy atmosphere.

Yingguang dare to say that even if Baron Laian did not secretly plunder the population for biological experiments, the atmosphere in Laian City would not be sunny. After all, this is a city in the mountains surrounded by mountains and forests, and people's personalities are also because of the Receive deliberate 'high welfare' and appear lazy.

  It is the protective layer that Baron Ryan used to disguise himself, so naturally it is impossible to have any internal vitality.

but now…

  The dragon nun raised her head involuntarily, and looked at the huge chimneys on the west side of the city.

  Different from the chimneys of the alchemy workshops she had seen in the past, the chimneys here will not emit gray-black or colorful 'glow'. On the contrary, in this city named after Xiahui, the color of the chimneys is as pale as snow.

  The Huaiguang Church has done their homework before, and they know that this is the practical result of the lord's "reuse of alchemy techniques".

  Ian Yinfeng invented this genius technique when he first arrived in the imperial capital and passed the alchemy assessment. Although it is not suitable for high-end alchemy, a slight improvement is the best measure to prevent pollution.

  The chimneys that seem to be towering into the clouds spray thin white gas, faintly connecting with the flowing clouds in the sky, and when the light is watching those clouds and mists, a shadow passes from the sky, covering the city and streets.

   That's a dragon—the dragon nun saw two real dragons slowly approaching.

  The real dragons landed on a mountain peak in the northwest of Xiahui Territory, and then two beams of light entered the lord's mansion. They must be the King of the Mountain of Nanling and his child Linglong Xiou.

  The King of the Mountain was originally responsible for guarding the treasure of the Iron Dragon, waiting for the successor to appear. After Ian Yinfeng became the envoy of the Dragon God and inherited the inheritance of the Iron Dragon, he should return to Dragon Island and wait for the next action.

But it may be because of the relationship between Mahdi and Dragon Island, or Ian himself is the target of Dragon Island... In short, the King of the Mountain who should have left not only did not leave, but even directly participated in the belief of the former Dragon God, The construction of the new holy place of Chongling Sect, 'Frost Sky Dome'.

At this point, no matter how much some nobles in the imperial capital murmur, saying, "How can the Yinfeng leader be worthy of the honor of being the first Earl of Nanling without the fourth energy level?" Large tracts of territory' are useless.

  Because there are really dragons of the fourth energy level living on this land.

  The appearance of the dragon did not cause disorder among the people on the street. They all just stopped, saluted silently, and then continued to laugh and laugh, doing what they should do.

"strangeness…"

  The Milosian redeemed Guang and muttered: "Longwei doesn't mean that you won't be afraid if you see it a lot. It's an instinctive reaction of the spirit and blood. How can this group of Yinfeng people be so calm?"

   "I'm afraid it's because this group of Yinfeng people are unusual."

  While Bai Zhimin cleric Hui Jian smiled slightly, he scanned the street in front of him, the 'fluorescence' in everyone's body, and then looked towards the north of the city.

  Different from the bustling southeast urban area, the western part of Xiahui City is densely packed with alchemy parks. The security here is heavily guarded, and the atmosphere is as hard and indifferent as steel hammering. There is nothing but the sound of workshops running.

  The north side is another extreme—it is a group of towers flashing with infinite thunder, like a lightning storm... This is the energy center of Xiahui Territory, and one or two electric sparks explode in the void from time to time between the high-voltage towers.

  The magnetic storm coils all over the city, the light prism tower and another brand new, constantly rotating eight-sided prism tower all rely on this place for energy supply.

  The energy pipeline here is buried deep underground. Although it has been hidden, it can be clearly seen that the main structure of this place, that is, the power furnace core is located underground.

  【The pipeline leads directly to Xiahui Lake...Has an energy furnace core that uses the 'Heavenfall Relic' been built...】

The pure white psychic light flashed in Hui Jian's eyes, and he thought thoughtfully: [Ian's ability once again exceeded our expectations, maybe there is a reason why he took the initiative to choose the Xiahui Territory as his territory... According to the deduction, his choice should be to return to Port Harrison, use some means to get rid of Viscount Grant, and seize that port and the South China Sea Labyrinth]

  【But looking at it now, he still has information that we don't know】

   "Do you want to go directly to the Lord's Mansion?"

  Xuguang noticed his companion's performance, and he was a little surprised and said: "The archbishop will talk about it when he comes back."

   "Hmm. No rush."

  Hui Jian responded with a smile, he motioned for Ran Guang to follow Ying Guang: "Let's take a look at this city first."

The city is bustling and bustling, and Xiahui City looks like a big city at the moment. The refurbished commercial street is wide and lively, brightly lit, and vehicles are not allowed to pass through. This is a pedestrian street. Mobile hot dog shop and kebab shop.

   "The food disaster has only passed a year, right? Can they eat meat like this?"

Redemption opened her mouth wide, not because she was surprised, but because she was hungry. The female paladin of Milos touched the corner of her head, swallowed, and said, "Besides, they used too much spice. Don't spices cost money?”

   "It's just chicken and duck meat. Breeding is already fast."

  Huijian noticed that today's Xiahui meat is still based on fast-growing poultry such as chicken, fish and duck.

As for spices, Canaan Moore, which is in cooperation with Xiahui, is the origin of spices, and the Jindeng family directly controls many spice plains, not to mention that most of the knight manors in the Golden Plain also grow spices, as long as they reach a cooperation agreement , there is certainly no shortage of this aspect.

"Do you give priority to the supply of civilian supplies?" The only thing that made Hui Jian think about it was Ian's attitude. Obviously, this lord didn't seem to intend to turn the territory into his own testing ground or sublimation material supply point—really If this is the case, he will not set up chicken and duck breeding factories and agricultural buildings, but let everyone go to the mountains to mine.

  Now, what Ian is doing is mainly to make ordinary people eat well... Although it is indeed a good thing, what is the purpose?

  Even Huijian can't figure this out for a while. According to the current situation known to Terra, after the people are fed, their work will be slack...or even give up thinking.

  Although it sounds a bit unpleasant to say, it is the truth. Some elves in the remote areas of Canaan Moor still live in wooden houses. Isn't it because the life in the coastal jungle is too simple, and it doesn't take much effort to get enough?

   On the contrary, they live in the mountains and plains, and even in the underground space. Those elves who need to work hard to fill their stomachs began to develop and expand very early, and evolved into the embryonic form of Canaan Moore.

   Unless, Ian finds another way that allows ordinary people to still have 'desire' after they are full.

   And just as Hui Jian was thinking, and when Hui Guang had already spent money to buy Xia Hui's specialty grilled stone shrimp sausage, Ying Guang discovered a novelty on the side of the street.

   "Vending machine?"

  She came to a huge square glass 'storage cabinet' quite curiously. There was a special terminal on the left side of the vending machine, where locals led by Xiahui used the terminal to buy something.

   After they manipulated it, the vending machine automatically pushed a product into the sales outlet, and the buyer took it and left. It was very smooth from beginning to end.

   "It's still like this..."

  Yingguang has gained a lot of insight: "Isn't there any thieves stealing from Xiahui's side? Such a big container is placed here, and no one is looking at it. Isn't it stolen all at once?"

  With such doubts, Yingguang went to a passerby to ask this question.

   "That's going to jail! And no one will get away with it!"

  The passerby's answer was very simple: “In the first two weeks, there were idiots stealing things from the vending machines every day, but everyone who stole things would be caught, and it was useless to hide.”

"The first time was just to criticize education for three days, the second time was to go to the west swamp to work and reclaim wasteland for a month, and the third time... I have never seen such a stupid fool, who dared to do this kind of thing three times, It's dead."

"But don't talk about it yet." The passerby seemed to think of something, and the gray-black-haired mountain man said: "I really know a 'thief' who has stolen three times—he is not a thief, but he is heartless. See what happens if you steal three times."

"A few days ago, he came back from the laboratory. He became decent and decent, and he didn't talk nonsense anymore. I almost didn't know the original silly boy—he even called me third uncle instead of 'old thing' 'It's gone!"

  Hearing this, Ying Guang frowned slightly.

The law of Xiahui collar is strict but not strict at all. It is normal for such a thief who stole the "government property" arranged by the city hall to have his hands cut off directly in other noble territories of the empire. The second time he will have to beheaded no matter what up.

As for the third time, it is obvious that there is no cure, even the kindest lord has to hang this kind of person—put it in a hellish place like Terra, and be content if you can be hanged, some of them are worse than death .

  But the third time...the third punishment, what happened?

   This reminded Yingguang of the three children led by Laian, the one who can manipulate memory... His psionic ability seems to be able to play a similar role?

  He had some doubts in his heart, but Yingguang didn't think too much about it. After all, in the case of being caught every time, there are very few people who will really steal official things three times.

   Not to mention, how could a kind and reliable knight like Ian use the same terrifying tactics as Baron Ryan back then?

  The only strange thing is how the leader Xiahui can catch everyone who steals.

   Could it be a prophet?

  No, no, no, it is not advisable to rely on the prophet for everything...

   And just as Yingguang comforted herself, she suddenly saw a person running out of a vending machine not far away.

  This man held a shaking fan in his hand, and complained profusely that it was too hot inside the vending machine, and the passers-by also teased him.

   "Huh? Artificial?"

Seeing this scene, Sister Yingguang was stunned, and the demeanor of a clergyman who had been well maintained suddenly turned into a country girl—not only her, but even Zhuang Guang also took a bite of the shrimp sausage in shock: " I thought it was a real automated system, but I didn't expect it to be human!"

   Now it is perfectly clear why every thief gets caught.

  But Hui Jian raised his eyebrows.

  He noticed that the clothes on this person did not look like a vending machine operator, but more like an engineer... He seems to be a maintenance and replenishment person?

  Vending machines may really be automated. That being the case, Xiahui Ling must have the means to monitor the entire city, and that is the 'monitoring magic circle' and 'psychic magic lock' that Archbishop Mingsao and Archbishop Tianyan said.

   "Or in other words, the network program of pre-epoch civilization?"

  He pondered in his heart.

   While the Huaiguang Church team was moving freely in Xiahui City.

  Lord's Mansion, Ian has already met with the two archbishops.

   "This time, we are here on behalf of Huaiguang Sacred Mountain, and we want to reach a 'Natural Disaster Mutual Assistance and Cooperation' with Chongling Sect in Nanling."

As soon as we met, the leader, Archbishop Sworn, didn't have any greetings, and said directly: "Because there are prophets in Nanling, and you, an influential prophet lord, exist. The Holy Mountain cannot predict any disasters around Nanling. Even if it is predicted, we cannot be sure whether the intelligence is distorted."

"Fortunately, Earl Yinfeng, you happen to be a crisis prophet, so we want to sign a prophetic agreement with you on behalf of Huaiguang Sacred Mountain—as long as there are signs of large-scale disasters or crises, Just notify us immediately, and we will send relevant personnel to cooperate with you to deal with all possible natural disasters on the mainland."

  Although Archbishop Mingyan is petite and young and beautiful, looking at Archbishop Tianyan's low-browed and pleasing servant-like posture, one can clearly understand her seniority... This posture is not just because of strength.

  Asians are very young until some time before their death, and so is the Sworn Archbishop apparently.

  As for the proposal to take the oath of the archbishop, Ian's idea is "Of course I agree."

  Huaiguang Sacred Mountain must have reached cooperation and intercommunication with all prophetic forces in terms of natural disasters, so as to avoid some extremely influential disasters that cannot be predicted in a certain territory in a certain place.

  This is also the reason why Terra Continent has great respect for the prophets. They can indeed guarantee the survival of the vast majority of people in the entire continent from multiple dimensions.

  But the only thing that worries Ian is one.

   (I know there are too many natural disasters)

  Ian thought in his heart: (Is it better to say everything to prevent problems before they happen, or to say one by one? I always feel that I don't know how to start it...)

   After Ian was distressed and swore the archbishop had finished speaking the most important thing, Archbishop Tianyan spoke.

He slowly talked about another key cooperation: "In addition, the existence of Chongling Sect has been recognized by our four major Orthodox Churches. Later, before June 1, envoys from other Orthodox Churches will also arrive at Xiahui Leader, we will conduct a public certification of Chongling Sect at the time you wish... and as a requirement, you must be very clear."

   "I must have a regular team of psionic priests."

After regaining his senses, Ian took over the words of Archbishop Tianyan, and he said with a smile: "And the core goal of this team is not simply to fight, but to be able to go deep into the void—it's about demons, you Say it right?"

   "It seems that there are many things that we don't need to talk about."

Archbishop Ming swore raised his brows, while Tian Yan smiled, and the burly former knight calmly said: "That's right. Sure enough, you already know a lot, and you have even mastered the technology of artificial psykers... But in order to avoid misunderstanding, we It is still necessary to inform you of the relevant detailed regulations."

   Speaking of this, he raised his finger and said seriously: "And—please don't get me wrong!"

"In order to ensure our cooperation in the future, the clergymen on the side of Chonglingjiao may need to be trained by us... This is not for the purpose of seizing power, nor for containment, nor forcibly intervening. It is just that the clergymen need to abide by it. Only some rules can survive better, so we may send some trainers to teach..."

"marvelous!"

Ian was too lazy to listen to the self-proving words of the Huaiguang Church. He clapped his hands and praised: "When will you send someone to teach our priests? Of course, you also know that there are not many priests on our side at present. There are only two young people on duty..."

"it's the same."

   Archbishop Tianyan obviously didn't expect Ian to be so insensitive, or to put it another way...believe in Huaiguang so much.

  So after a pause, he also nodded with a smile and said: "According to our judgment, Chongling Sect will have a long period of development, so our trainers will be stationed in Xiahui for a long time."

   "As for the candidate...you should also know the Earl of Silver Peak."

   "They are moving freely in the city now, and will respond to the call later."

   At this moment, Yingguang's trio had already arrived at the foot of the Silver Peak.

  The manor next to Yafeng has long been vacant.

  There is only one super-huge battleship model located there today.

"What it is…"

Redemption, who doesn't know much about this aspect, muttered to herself. She looked up at the exquisite battleship model in front of her, and said with some hesitation: "When I went to the World Tree Capital, I felt as if I had seen a similar structure before. , but the world tree capital is vertical, and this battleship..."

   "It should be the world tree capital."

Hui Jian raised his head and said: "According to our information, Ian Yinfeng received a gift from World Tree Capital, and this model is probably one of them—could it be that World Tree Capital also shared its structure with Ian?" What? Then what did he do to get this kind of reward?"

   "I don't think it might be that complicated."

Yingguang raised her head thoughtfully and said, she said quite firmly: "I think Ian might like this kind of model - it should be a hobby. This model should be just a miniature model, nothing A miniature airship that can really fly”

"How can it be."

  Huang Guang didn't care about his junior sister's naive thoughts: "A person like Earl Yinfeng has a purpose in everything he does. With such a big model, how could it be purely for hobby?"

"Too."

  Yingguang thought for a while and felt right: "Earl Yinfeng's idea is definitely not that simple."

   "We still have to think about it."
