Two hundred and fifty-eight, Merchant Priest (asking for recommendation votes)
It can be imagined from this that the development of the Paroti Church is very difficult. Any normal person would probably not be too willing to worship a god who spreads fear. Even if he wanted to go, he would only pray for some protection at sea. £® £® com // "" Advertisement Full text txt download
Well, in fact, everyone knows that that kind of prayer is completely useless. When His Highness Parotti went crazy, not a single person in the boat ran away, and they all sank to the bottom of the sea to feed His Highness Parotti's descendants.
In the other four countries, the Paroti Church is quite honest. After all, those countries have their own gods to protect them. His Highness Paroti, who sometimes goes crazy and talks nonsense, also prohibits his church from conflicting with other churches. After all, everyone It is a weak divine power. If he really offends the public, it will not be a pleasant experience for three gods to deal with him together.
But within the peninsula, the performance of the Paroti Church is completely different from that of the other four countries. Since it is the only church, the priests of Paroti always deal with the principality with a arrogant and domineering look. Their gods rule this sea area. Shouldn't this small country that relies on the navigation industry be more respectful?
In the country of the peninsula, the Paroti Church has almost become the Supreme Emperor. Their priests not only charge high poll taxes from fishermen and sailors, but also find ways to get their hands into the secular power system of the principality.
It was okay before. The Grand Dukes knew that with the strength of their own country, they couldn't do anything to the Paroti Church. Therefore, even if His Highness the Grand Duke was insulted by a high-ranking priest, he would swallow his anger and make big things into trivial matters. The state of affairs is the principle.
To be honest, no matter which Grand Duke he is, he hates the Paroti Church from the bottom of his heart and is always thinking of ways to expel the Paroti Church from the principality. But the principality's strength is too weak. The entire country only has a regular military force of the Grand Duke's Guard, numbering less than a thousand people, and the rest are fishermen and part-time militiamen. How can such a strength confront the Paroti Church?
If the Paroti Church wants to deal with His Highness the Grand Duke, it may only need to send a team of paladins and a few high-ranking priests to completely annihilate the Grand Duke's guards.
Fortunately, after all, the Grand Duke line is the orthodoxy of the Principality. Even if the Paroti Church wants to replace someone as the Grand Duke, it has to consider the prying eyes of other gods. The Paroti Church is not willing to give other churches excuses because of these things. Entering the country of the peninsula, the rule of the Grand Dukes was finally maintained.
But things are different now. As the magic net covers the country of the peninsula, and those merchant priests bring books of meditation and a large amount of goods influx, His Highness the Grand Duke, who has been suffering for a long time, suddenly finds that the opportunity for him to turn over has come!
What could be more reliable than those fishermen and sailors who rely on meditation to become spellcasters? His Highness the Grand Duke sent out all the guards and recruited spellcasters who suddenly appeared through meditation.
And those merchant priests soon discovered the strange movements of His Highness the Grand Duke, and they came to the door on their own, expressing their willingness to help His Highness get rid of the oppression and oppression of the Paroti Church. "" Advertisement txt download
At this time, His Highness the Grand Duke had already made a desperate move, and the visit of those merchants and priests gained His Highness the greatest enthusiasm. His Highness the Grand Duke nodded and agreed to any conditions. As long as the Paroti Church can be driven out, any price is worth it.
However, what surprised His Highness the Grand Duke was that the merchant priests did not make any requests, not even for the construction of temples or the establishment of a national religion. After His Highness the Grand Duke nodded and agreed to receive assistance, they drove a huge cloud cart to move a large amount of goods. come over.
This is simply stealing His Highness Shadba¡¯s job.
With the free assistance provided by the merchant priests, His Highness the Grand Duke suddenly felt that his body was straighter, his waist was straighter, his speech was stronger than before, and the operation of recruiting those spellcasters became much smoother.
Although those spell casters have been oppressed by the Paroti Church before, the Paroti Church also knows how to use benefits to win them over. They were originally in a stalemate, but who knew that His Highness the Grand Duke announced a series of benefits with great wealth, and suddenly the Some of the spell casters who were originally resistant to the church were all drawn over.
By the time the Paroti Church learned the news, it was too late. But for the Paroti Church, this is not the final outcome. After recruiting spellcasters, His Majesty the Grand Duke vigorously trained the army and distributed all kinds of high-quality weapons and armor, hoping to fight against the Paroti Church. the trend of.
Coupled with the spread of some rumors, the Paroti Church immediately made up its mind. Since you are dishonest, then you will be erased from the body!
With determination and strength, bad news soon spread from the Grand Duke¡¯s palace. The country of the peninsula was shocking.Dear, the benevolent Grand Duke has been assassinated! And the assassin was caught on the spot! And recognized him as the leader of the Paroti Church. In fact, the assassin was about to escape. Unexpectedly, he was accidentally bumped into by several merchant priests on the way. As a result, with the efforts of the merchant priests and the orc guards, the assassin was rescued. Didn't run away.
Of course, this is only the situation on the surface. In fact, as soon as the assassins were dispatched, the merchant priests obtained the intelligence and laid an ambush. They waited for His Highness to be assassinated and then captured him. You must know the actual orc guards around the merchant priests. Above are the newly trained paladins from the Church of Wrath of Nature. It is also a training for them to follow the merchant priests.
Originally, the words spoken by the assassin were not enough to make people believe that the Paroti Church dared to be so crazy. Who knew that the identity of the assassin turned out to be a paladin in the Paroti Church!
At this moment, the Paroti Church was not allowed to quibble at all. The extremely angry son of the Grand Duke immediately announced that he would succeed the Grand Duke, called on the people across the country to expel the Paroti Church, and ordered the Paroti Church to hand over the main envoy.
As the church of His Highness Paroti, the God of the Sea, has always been arrogant in the country of the peninsula, it will not comply with the requirements of the Grand Duke's son. Instead, it seeks help from the church branches in other countries, preparing to take this opportunity to conquer the Grand Duke in one fell swoop. A line of blood was wiped out and directly replaced with someone he recognized.
Under such circumstances, the situation within the peninsula suddenly deteriorated. The son of the Grand Duke led the newly formed guards to surround the headquarters of the Paroti Church, and personally went into battle to attack fiercely. If it were not for the defense of the headquarters of the Paroti Church. Once in place, I'm afraid the Archduke's Guards would storm the church headquarters on the first day.
With the changes in the situation in the country of the peninsula, several surrounding countries and their gods have set their sights on the country of the peninsula.
"If this kind of thing happened to most churches, I'm afraid that the guards led by the Grand Duke's son would have been wiped out long ago. After all, those spell casters are too weak. They can deal with ordinary soldiers, but it would be a bit sad to meet the paladin.
But the situation here is a little different. The paladins of the church were attacked by powerful snipers. Some orcs who were a little different from ordinary humans appeared in the guards, beating back the paladins who were originally thought to be able to kill them.
To be honest, His Royal Highness Poseidon Parotti did not attach much importance to his own church. Therefore, there is no pope or supreme ruler in the church, not even a cardinal archbishop. There are only five archbishops who are jointly responsible for the management of the church. Therefore, there is no legendary powerhouse in the church, and of course there are no sub-legendary powerhouses. There are not even many paladins. Most of the paladins are just church soldiers who have excellent combat skills and have been promoted to paladins.
You must know that His Highness Paroti, the God of the Sea, is not a weak god. He has not yet given the power of divine magic to the paladins. Therefore, it is normal for those paladins to be completely defeated when they faced the orc paladins in the Church of Nature's Wrath.
And it is reasonable for him to retreat to the church headquarters after being suppressed by the Grand Duke Guards.
The archbishop who stayed at the headquarters of the Paroti Church called back the four archbishops who were living in other four countries. It has been difficult to see the gathering of five archbishops in the Paroti Church in recent years. In order to fight for power and gain, the archbishop who stayed at the headquarters brought back the remaining four archbishops. Archbishops rushed to other church branches.
Letting them return to the church headquarters is undoubtedly a very dangerous thing, but the archbishop who is now left behind can no longer care about it. If the church headquarters is breached, then everything will be in vain.
Of course, the remaining four archbishops were naturally angry at the left-behind archbishop for driving them out of the church headquarters. If they had not seen the death of their lips and teeth, most of these four archbishops would have just waited for the war.
But even so, when the five archbishops met to study the problem, quarrels continued to break out, and even the most lively things almost resulted in a fight.
However, before they could come up with a solution, the church soldiers guarding the outside of the church headquarters were horrified to see a giant beast rushing over from a distance, with all kinds of arrows and magical spells hitting its body without any damage. When he rushed in front of him, he slapped him and a large part of the extremely solid city wall collapsed.
Just when the surrounding countries and even the churches were considering whether to intervene in the affairs of the peninsular country, a shocking news came. The headquarters of the Paroti Church was breached. The Grand Duke Guards actually drove a behemoth when they broke through the defense of the church headquarters.
For these churches that developed in the plane of Nar, there is no doubt that they have never seen the Behemoth. However, from the spies¡¯ descriptions, the church¡¯s senior leaders can know that this behemoth must be a legend. Behemoth!
This can¡¯t help but shock them. There is such a legend in a place as quiet as the country of the peninsula.Strange beast? This was hard to believe, but as follow-up information came, they learned that the legendary beast turned out to be the new Grand Duke of the Kingdom of the Peninsula. He pledged his position as Grand Duke to the Church of Nature's Wrath in exchange for the top-level contribution points exchanged. prize!
Damn it! Is there such a good thing? The top leaders of the church couldn't help but uttered foul words for a while, but then they came to their senses. Such a church is really awesome. It can actually take the legendary beast as a prize!
You must know that among the churches of your own, the legendary strong one is just a pope. In the weaker churches, even the pope is just a sub-legendary strong man. Comparing people to people is irritating, and churches are comparing churches to death. It is embarrassing to the gods.
But they reacted quickly and immediately sent envoys to the country of the peninsula. The name was to mourn the assassination of the former Grand Duke, but in fact they wanted to contact the merchant priests to see if there was any chance of buying the legendary beast.
Soon, the news came back that top prizes such as legendary monsters, even if you have enough contribution points, you must be a believer in the Church of Nature¡¯s Wrath before you can redeem them. This news immediately dampened the excitement of the church's senior leaders. They were all a little envious of the believers of the Wrath of Nature Church, but if they really wanted to convert them, they still wouldn't dare. If the church's senior leaders converted, then It will arouse the wrath of the gods. Even if the gods take action to kill them, the gods of the Church of Nature's Wrath may not be able to intervene.
But the next news quickly increased their excitement. It is said that the merchant priests said that it is not impossible to redeem the legendary behemoth, but the redemption points are five times higher than those of believers of Nature's Wrath, and the merchant priests are willing to provide Give tasks to other churches to complete in order for them to earn contribution points.
Good thing! Good thing! The top leaders of these churches who bordered the peninsula country suddenly became excited. They were like male dogs in heat, desperately asking about the mission. If they could exchange for a legendary beast, I'm afraid their reputation in the church would be greatly improved. , it won¡¯t be too far away from the supreme position.
Soon, the first mission of the merchant priests was passed on. To annihilate the Paroti Church branches in various countries, you can get 5,000 contribution points. Five thousand points? Well, the redemption points for the legendary beast are actually 500,000 points!
In other words, you have to complete this kind of task a hundred times before you can redeem it for the legendary beast. In fact, when I thought about it, the church branches of Paroti Church in various countries are not very strong. If it were not for the sight of Poseidon Paroti In order to save their lives, these church branches may have been expelled long ago.
In fact, if you don't use it to exchange for legendary beasts, these 5,000 points alone can be exchanged for a lot of good things, such as a level 6 magic pet with 200 points, a level 7 magic pet with 500 points, etc. .
Although it was far away from what they hoped, the church leaders still gritted their teeth and did it! Although it is not possible to exchange for the legendary behemoth at once, with the beginning of this kind of cooperation, a harmonious relationship is necessary, and the days to come are still long.
With the sudden attack by several churches, the miserable national branches of the Paroti Church were quickly destroyed, becoming an allusion in the history of various countries. The wealth recovered from the various branches of the Paroti Church also made these churches rich. A windfall, no matter how bad the Paroti Church is, it is still a church with a heritage of nearly 1,300 years. After more than a thousand years of accumulation, the church has a lot of wealth.
