Chapter 570 Sapphire's Thoughts, Farming Training Meeting 【Subscribe】【5K】

At this moment, she suddenly thought of Zong Shen.

The man who rescued her from the pursuit of the Dragonborn Knights while riding a big wild boar!

Although they did not meet many times, Zong Shen left a deep impression in Sapphire's heart.

He is different from those believers, deacons, church elders and even archbishops in the church.

Most of the people in the Church of Calamity Ravens are fanatical and persistent.

The respect for her is only based on her status as a saint.

Even Sapphire felt like a tool person every time she faced the Archbishop.

On the contrary, His Holiness the Pope treated her very well, which made her feel some kind of affection.

Before that, Sapphire had also determined to dedicate everything to the development of the Church of Calamity Raven.

Each mission performed by her rarely fails, and most missions are successfully completed.

The only real crisis of almost being captured was the Odo village.

As for Zong Shen, the feeling he gave Sapphire was completely different.

From him, Sapphire seemed to see the outside world.

Yes, the outside world!

The cookie-cutter, fanatical, obsessive church life is like a cage.

When she first thought of this, Sapphire was still very scared.

Feeling that my piety and certain beliefs have collapsed, and there is a sense of guilt.

But after thinking about it for a while, Sapphire can safely accept her own thoughts.

For Zong Shen, her thoughts are actually very complicated, but in any case, she will not use the mad believer transformation ceremony on Zong Shen!

This is an extremely overbearing faith conversion ritual.

Once the ceremony is over, anyone will have a fanatical belief and worship of the Raven God.

In Sapphire's heart, she still hopes that the operation of Rentax Giant City will be successful!

But she didn't want Zong Shen to become a fanatic.

Sapphire didn't want even Zong Shen to become an inhuman guy.

Thinking of this, her heart became more and more heavy.

It felt like when she was just fourteen years old, she followed the Apostles to attack the churches of other churches for the first time, and she watched those jackdaws euphorbia warriors chop off the heads of other church pastors.

As for those deacons, they were even burned at the stake in public.

Even now, with her eyes closed, she can still clearly recall the faces that were distorted by the pain of the deacon fire. She sniffed gently, and there seemed to be a lingering stench in the air, and the sound of chanting reverberated in her ears. And curses and heart-wrenching wailing.

The village to which the church belongs was trodden by the iron hooves of the heretic giant knights.

Slaughter all the followers of the opponent's church.

The soil in the north that had been frozen all year round was softened by the warm blood soaking, and was stepped on by the reloaded Sharma, mixing it into a reddish-black mud.

Even the air smelled of bloody rust.

There was no joy after victory in her heart at that time.

Just feel sick.

Vomiting from the stomach to the throat and finally into the head.

Everything made Sapphire nauseated and dizzy.

That was her real reaction at the time.

Although Sapphire has received the faith and indoctrination of the church since she was a child.

But then Sapphire discovered something.

Even though she had already sworn that she was determined to fight for the church in this life.

But seeing this scene, I still feel uncomfortable in my heart.

It took her a long time to get used to this feeling.

It was not until she got used to life and death that she could look at death and killing calmly, that nausea completely disappeared.

Now, Zong Shen made a tangled feeling appear in her heart.

This feeling has nothing to do with sex.

She just has a window.

A window looking out of the church.

"call…"

Sapphire let out a heavy breath.

The warm breath slowly dissipated in the cold air in the form of a white mist.

The Raven Lady Saffrey turned and continued to lean on the stone stack on the tower.

The stone wall has been covered with a layer of solid ice, and it glows with a pale luster under the moonlight.

The church tower here is the quietest place in the entire Jackdaw Valley.

It is also a commanding height with a wonderful view.

Standing on it, you can almost overlook the whole valley.

The Jackdaw Valley under the night sky is extraordinarily quiet.

Under the silvery white moonlight, Sapphire could even see the permafrost and the forest covered in silver.

It is not yet the time of winter in the north.

The silver on the forest is all condensed rime and ice.

When it comes to winter, Jackdaw Valley will be covered with snow.

The winter season in the north will last for about four months.

Heavy snow can accumulate to a thickness of one or two meters without anyone clearing it.

Every year, there are many cases of snow and collapse of the house.

There will also be violent icy winds and icy cyclones in the sky.

So the reason for not building walls in Jackdaw Valley is also very simple.

This is because it is actually an isolated and remote area.

To the south, you need to pass through a very large forest.

In the forest, there are powerful monsters and various icefield beasts.

To the north is the Icefield Heights, and those northern barbarians are not vegetarians.

There are no hard straights built from here to the outside.

The easiest way to get in and out is to use the space teleportation array.

Otherwise, you have to travel through glacial plateaus or permafrost forests.

In the winter season, it is difficult to reach Jackdaw Valley, whether on the ground or in the sky.

This is not like the main giant city of the Versia Kingdom, where the Kingdom Avenue was built.

It's an isolated place.

Of course, Jackdaw Valley has not completely cut off communication with the outside world.

Although a large-scale army is difficult to send directly to this place.

But those refugees and small-scale traveling merchants can still get here.

Travelling merchants are the most active group of people on this continent.

As long as there is a place where human beings live, there are active merchants.

So if Sapphire asked Zong Shen to be a guest at that time, it was not entirely polite.

If Zong Shen came along with the traveling merchants holding her token, he would not be hurt.

Although the Church of Calamity Ravens is not a good believer, it is also in urgent need of expanding its followers.

But it will not easily do anything to the traveling merchants and refugees.

This is an established rule.

Once it is destroyed, there will be no refugees and nomads here, and eventually the vitality of development will be lost.

The so-called believers in most churches are just those who have been transformed through preaching.

Most are refugees, accepting their faith with a mouthful of hot porridge.

This kind of belief is not strong, and it needs to be constantly consolidated and brainwashed.

Screening will also be carried out from among these believers.

Recruit into a church or group of believers.

As for the transformation of the fanatical ritual mentioned by Archbishop Byron before, that is the so-called fanatic.

There is also a price to be paid for performing cult rituals.

If Zong Shen came here simply as a visit, he would not be forcibly transformed into a fanatic.

And Archbishop Byron also said that if Sapphire insisted on wanting Zong Shen to participate in church affairs.

It has to be turned into a fanatic first.

In other words, as long as Zong Shen is not involved, there is no need to convert him.

Sapphire looked at the scenery of Jackdaw Valley and fell into deep thought.

At present, there are still more than 20 days before the start of the banquet in the giant city of Rentax.

To be on the safe side, she'll be leaving in a week.

First, go to the secret stronghold of the church in the east of Avalon through the teleportation array.

Then ride the Frost Raven to the nearest state city.

This operation can be regarded as a beheading operation.

The real purpose is to take the big and small nobles who attended the banquet in one pot, and use this as an opportunity to quickly master the giant city and its subordinate state cities.

In order to cooperate with the action, the church will assign an entire group of apostles to hibernate in the mountains and forests.

It is convenient for the church to quickly control all cities.

Operations in the giant city do not require too many manpower.

Cooperating with Sapphire's actions will be a squadron of church elites.

These elites are not like the Jackdaws and the heretic knights of the Faithful.

They are the real elite in the church.

They are the Frost Judgment Army and the Calamity Arbitration Army.

In the Church of Calamity Ravens, these are the most powerful warriors out of ten thousand.

Equivalent to the sixth-order soldiers in the kingdom.

In order to attend the banquet smoothly, they have been preparing for several months in advance.

Enough invitations have been obtained through various channels.

It doesn't take so many people to enter the banquet.

At that time, most of the elite soldiers will be on standby near the central castle.

There are not many ways to obtain the qualifications to participate in the banquet.

In addition to the normal invitation letter, the only way to get a place is to participate in the competition.

It is also unrealistic to obtain places by participating in the conference. In addition, it is easy to reveal strength.

So they prepared camouflage props that could change their appearance and figure.

Infiltrate the state city under the great city of Rentax in advance.

Controlled the local ruling nobles and obtained an invitation letter.

This control carries certain risks.

Especially when Bangseong's force has not been disarmed.

There is always the possibility of being exposed.

But the church doesn't care so much.

If you intend to delay, there is no problem with hiding it for a month or two.

After getting the invitation letter, Sapphire will disguise again, and she can go to the banquet again logically.

After the banquet begins, their final plan can be completed.

As long as they can successfully hijack and control Marquis Henry Lancaster and the small nobles who attended the banquet and in charge of the major cities, then there is no need to worry about the soldiers and dragonborn knights in the giant city.

Even so, this plan is still very risky, which can be called an act of seeking wealth and wealth.

The action this time goes far beyond the great city of Rentax.

The church's goal selected the three great cities in Avalon.

The other two will have different archbishops in charge.

Sapphire is just one offshoot of the plan.

If it fails, just two teams of Tier 6 elite Judge Army and Arbitration Army will not be able to fight against all the warriors in the entire giant city.

But Sapphire had no choice.

The Church needs to insert nails into the kingdom of Avalon.

And as far as she knew, the forces that observed the contradictions at the top of the major kingdoms were not the only Church of Calamity Ravens.

If the current continent is like a calm lake, then the real waves will soon appear, and the major kingdoms will be overwhelmed!

Sapphire thought of this, and her eyes gradually became deeper.

She stared at the cold wind, as if merging with the night in the north.

...

At the same time, in Zong Shen's territory.

It took him more than half an hour to finally answer the soldiers' suggestions and doubts.

This is the result of his intention to allow each branch to send only one spokesperson.

After all the soldiers had finished speaking, his mouth was dry.

The warriors' advice varied.

Most are advice on territorial life.

Almost all mages strongly demanded the construction of one more [Magic Hall].

Although the [Mage Training Ground] also has a meditation room, the effect is not as good as the ten meditation rooms in the [Magic Palace].

Therefore, the most popular among mages is the [Magic Hall].

It's just that Zong Shen can't solve this problem in a short time.

He doesn't have a suitable rare grade [Architectural Replica Stone] in his hand, he can only see if there is a chance in the future.

As for the requirements of other fighters, it is also very jumpy.

There are both daily food problems and suggestions on the warrior team.

And there's the matter of housing.

Hearing Zong Shen's brain "buzzing", it was as if he had been hit by the [Rumbling Hammer in the skull].

After he listened to the advice of the soldiers.

He hurriedly handed it over to Luna, Vereesa, and Doris to deal with the aftermath. .

By their detailed statistics of today's equipment loss.

And Zong Shen himself took the opportunity to slip away, and directly drove the weight-bearer mecha to find Howie and Mariel.

When he reached the open space on the other side of the living quarters, he realized that the farming meeting was not over.

You know it's past ten o'clock in the evening.

This farming training conference has no intention of stopping.

This made him feel a little surprised.

"Good guy! Is the training session still addictive?"

He muttered to himself with a sigh.

According to the original plan, the evening training will end on time at ten o'clock, but now it is obviously overtime.

I saw a large circle surrounded by farmers in the periphery.

The scale of more than a thousand people still looks quite imposing.

Zong Shen could only see a cluster of swaying heads at a glance, and he could also vaguely see the tall campfire in the crowd jumping out of sparks.

As for Mariel and Howie, he didn't see anyone at all.

Except for the two of them in this training session.

The hero-level talents from the two former refugees and the seven hero-level talents recruited from the Borderless Territory are also here.

There are a total of eleven hero-level talents in the logistics department of the territory after these two replenishments.

As long as they are familiar with and run in for a period of time, these newly added hero-level talents can quickly devote themselves to the construction and development of the territory.

By then, the logistical efficiency of the territory will be taken to a new level.

These heroic talents will also form the foundation of the future city hall of the territory.

Zong Shen stopped the weight-bearer mecha outside the crowd.

The scene of the farming training conference was full of people. Those farmers didn't even know that the lord was here in person. Zong Shen looked at the crowd and didn't want to use brute force to enter. ].

His body floated up and flew directly from the top of the crowd to the middle.

There is about a hundred square meters of space in the central circle within the crowd.

In it, there is an illusion of being surrounded by the vast ocean of the people.

At this time, the heroic talents led by Howie and Mariel.

With Erya and Xiaoping, who were in charge of farming affairs, as well as those rare farmers who had learned farming books, grabbed the hoe forged by the dwarf uncle, and opened up a small square of a few square meters on the ground. The square field, while demonstrating, while focusing on farming techniques.

Questions such as how deep to dig, how much to bury, and how to distribute drainage ditches.

When Zong Shen floated down.

The first to react were Howie and Mariel.

"Sir! You are here!"

Howie took the lead in bowing to Zong Shen.

Mariel on the side opened her mouth, but did not speak.

When Zong Shen heard Howie's voice, he couldn't help showing a strange expression.

"What the hell, Howie, how did your voice sound like a crow?"

"Why did your voice suddenly become hoarse?"

Howie's voice was harsh and hoarse, like iron blocks rubbing against each other.

Hearing Zong Shen's question, Howie's face showed a wry smile.

He turned his head to look at Mariel, and then they both turned their heads at the same time to explain awkwardly.

"Go back to the adults, because of the farming training meeting..."

"Our voices are basically hoarse."

"I can at least talk."

"Maryl can't even speak now."

"It will take at least two or three days to recover."

After Howie finished speaking, Zong Shen also looked at Mariel.

I saw the little girl nodded vigorously, and the tense expression on her face finally relaxed a little.

Not being able to speak made her so uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Howie was her translator.

Zong Shen was stunned for a while, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"You are working too hard!"

"Go to the central area for a while and ask Mariel to get you some [Lunar Spring]."

"I hope the spring water can heal your wounds."

Zong Shen really didn't expect them to fight to such a degree.

All the hero-level talents knelt down on one knee and saluted Zong Shen to show their respect.

"Welcome Lord Lord!"

The surrounding farmers also knelt down on one knee at this moment and saluted him.

The scene looked like a falling domino as the crowd knelt from the inside out.

Zong Shen's arrival interrupted the farming training conference.

He waved his hand, signaling everyone to get up.

The etiquette of another world is somewhat fancy and cumbersome to him.

But when facing farmers and warriors in the territory.

Accepting their respect is also a way of guaranteeing authority.

Under his nod, all the farmers stood up one after another.

Zong Shen raised his hands and pressed them down, signaling everyone to keep quiet and prepare to lecture.

Perhaps due to loyalty, or perhaps because of other factors, all farmers have entered a state of silence.

"Cough cough..."

He cleared his throat, then began to speak aloud again.

"I think tonight's farming meeting can be over."

"Lord Mariel should have said that the territory is not suitable for full-scale farming for the time being."

"At least we have to wait another seven or eight days!"

"I make sure everyone has a suitable job."

"Those who do not have jobs will also be allocated a field!"
