Chapter 446 445. Forbidden Magic Preaching
Port City-State Woo-Pu.
After finishing the communication, Mile sat in front of the mahogany table in the mansion she had just moved into and pondered for a long time. She found a reasonable way to carry out the task assigned by Lu Yu, and the corners of her mouth rose, and she stretched happily.
The afterglow of the setting sun slowly slipped away from the window sill, and the carved furniture, which was lit by the red glow and was exquisitely crafted, disappeared into the darkness.
After sitting in the unlit room for a long time, Mile converged her perception from all directions, and her eyes with golden light returned to normal in just a blink.
After being asked to establish an information channel belonging to the Dawn Territory, Mile resumed the caution and rigor when she was still the incarnation of glory.
The character is a refugee merchant who has nothing but money. Mile always appears in this image in public. The nobles and merchants of Wupu City quickly accepted her joining - no one dislikes a beautiful lady who has not yet had a conflict of interest with them and likes to throw money around.
The Solon Civil War did not affect the prosperity of Wupu, a large port trading city. A large number of Solon nobles who fled south during the period of immersion gathered here and waited for the result of the civil war, which made Mile always easily get a lot of useful information from them.
But it is far from enough to just build a good relationship with this group of rubbish who are drunk and dreaming. The changes in the magic tide are unknown to these gentlemen who have no worries about food and drink and do not need to take risks.
Mile, who dressed herself as an adventurer, stepped into a crowded tavern in Wupu City. She leaned against the bar because there was no place to sit, listening to the words of the people coming and going under the influence of alcohol.
This job is very challenging for anyone who has just started this job. There are many adventurers who brag and brag. It takes a certain ability to distinguish the truth from what they say. However, for Mile, the former incarnation of glory who has dealt with a lot of people, this is not a problem.
"I'm telling you, I met a real ghost yesterday, near Xuyan Forest."
"Why do you say that, too, Nur? You're a Mithril adventurer. You must have drunk too much after completing the commission."
Nur was about to raise the wooden cup filled with beer and drink it all. Hearing that he was questioned, he glared and shouted angrily, "I never drink when I'm carrying out commissions, unlike Parson!"
"Come on, Parson claimed that he saw countless white cotton wool floating in the sky, and there were blurry faces in it. This has been confirmed to be a story made up by a bard, but he insisted that he saw it with his own eyes... I say that it's not shameful to fail to complete the commission, but it's a bit ugly to say that you accidentally discarded the spoils that the commission asked to be recovered because you were scared."
The table top flipped sideways, golden slurry splashed, and the two wooden cups rolled far away on the ground.
Mile, holding the mead, slowly turned around and leaned on the bar, watching the group of adventurers with great interest. If the guess was right, the other main character in the conversation, Parson, was among them.
Mile naturally knew that Parson's experience was very likely to be true. She had witnessed the resurrection of the spirit in Dawn Territory, but after leaving Dawn Territory, she found that Mela still knew nothing about it.
No one stopped the two groups of adventurers from having a lively fight. It was great to have someone fight to cheer them up after drinking. As long as they didn't use magic, the tavern owner wouldn't care. Such things were never new.
Taking advantage of the noisy gap, Mile deliberately bypassed the waitress who was only in front of him and walked to a young man who kept glancing at him from the corner of his eyes.
The slightly immature young waiter couldn't control his expression and emotions. Just facing Mile, he slowed down a few points in wiping the wine glass. When Mile smiled and bought him a full glass of mead, his face turned red unnaturally.
"Have you been working here?" The drinker left, which allowed Mile to finally get a chair. She sat on it, holding her chin and staring at the young man.
"It should be... a year?" The young man was a little surprised. He was not prepared for communication at all and his voice was a little out of tune.
"Oh, there are people coming and going here. You must have heard a lot of interesting and useful news. I want to ask if there are any outstanding summoners in Wupu City?"
Mile did not deliberately suppress her voice. It happened that the fight was over and the tavern ushered in a brief moment of silence, so everyone nearby heard her words.
"Are you looking for a summoner?"
"Yes, a very outstanding summoner."
"For a commission?"
"Not entirely, more to verify a rumor with him."
Although the summoner returned to the public eye after the disaster of the infected spirit, everyone's attitude towards him is still: the future is promising, wait and see for the time being.
Adventurers still don't like summoners. For a commission involving the survival of themselves and the team, the assistance that summoners can provide still needs time to test. No one dares to take risks in such an event where a mistake will give them the opportunity to communicate with the gods.
Summoner, rumor, and special search, these three keywords aroused the interest of many people in the tavern.
"Why don't you tell me what kind of rumor it is?" someone said.
Mile was very grateful to this impatient "trust". She said: "I met a magician who had just returned from Broken Gold City in the wild. He told me that the glutton seemed to have been defeated."
"Glutton? Which glutton?"
"As you said, in the entire Mela, who else can be called a glutton except the summoner glutton?"
"He was defeated? No way. I heard that at the recent celebration, he defeated some summoning masters with overwhelming force."
"You'd better make it clear. The word 'suspected' sounds ambiguous."
After Millais realized that his emotions and curiosity had been successfully aroused, he narrated the story he had just made up in a passerby's voice, "I just heard about it too."
"It is said that the magic wave brought huge changes, causing the glutton's originally powerful summons to be unable to be summoned. The changes in the summoning ritual even made him have to explore the knowledge of summons from scratch. He was completely on the same starting line. He was not even able to defeat Rising Star.”
"I thought it was impossible at first because it sounded really outrageous, so I have been looking for summoners to try to verify this huge change."
Everyone no longer paid attention to the two people who had just used force, and everyone was thoughtful.
"This...could it be true?" Someone raised his head and looked around, trying to find an answer.
"It should be true...the huge fluctuations in summoning are real." Someone from a team of adventurers sitting in the corner said, "There are people in our team who have learned the summoning technique from the Infested Spirit, about thirty days ago During a hunt some time ago, his summons disappeared out of thin air without any warning, and the summons was full of instability for several days."
"Didn't those summoning masters say that Gluttony had tampered with the summoning templates given to everyone?"
"No way, there are really people who believe what those so-called 'leaders' say and can do things like using templates to defraud money. You can't believe even a hair of what they say!"
"So, more than thirty days ago, the magic wave brought some new changes to the summons... The knowledge mastered by gluttons is invalid, doesn't it mean that the knowledge mastered by those families is also meaningless?"
The magicians all showed joy, and they knew exactly what this meant.
Each wave of magic brings huge changes, and there are a lot of records of changes in the magic system. Summoning was dead before this, and now the number of summoners is basically half a bucket of water that was only temporarily learned after being soaked in disasters, and the knowledge barrier has not yet been established. In construction, everyone is on the same starting line, so is there any hope that I can get ahead and become the first?
The traditional professions have been overwhelmed, and the fluctuations brought by the magic wave will not completely collapse their system. The small group of people who want to be at the top need to invest an astonishing amount of time and energy, but the summons is completely unavailable. Fertile land for development, there is no one on this track yet!
Mi Lai admired the excitement and excitement flashing in the eyes of many magicians with satisfaction. She knew that most of her mission had been completed. Next, she only needed this wind to spread to various places with the free adventurers.
Mi Lai didn't feel any psychological pressure about belittling her lord. She had confirmed from her words that he didn't care about his reputation. Becoming a villain or becoming a background in the story would not affect Lord Lu Yu's mood.
The same trick didn't work for Mi Lai the second time. After arriving at the second tavern, she changed her "face" and still leaned against the bar, silently collecting the breeze blowing from the bottom.
"They're here again..."
"Haha... I won't talk about it for a long time. It's really disappointing."
The murmurs from the people around him made Mi Lai turn around. Four young men in purple gowns walked through the bustling crowd of drinkers and ordered four glasses of ale at the bar. However, they did not wait for the bartender to serve the drinks and walked separately to the door of the tavern. Every corner.
The nearby drunken people noticed that they were approaching and picked up the wine and food on the table as if they were avoiding the plague. If possible, Mi Lai felt that they were not even willing to make eye contact with these four people.
After a busy day, the adventurers, who were wandering on the edge of life and death and in desperate need of relief, would actually stay away from such a group of people who seemed to be weak. Reminiscent of the fight in the previous tavern, this wonderful scene aroused Milai's strong feelings. interest.
She pursed her lips at the youngest girl among the four, and asked the bartender sideways: "Who are they, and why are people here so afraid of them?"
The adventurers who came here to get drunk were generally reluctant to drink the more expensive mead. They just glanced at it and the bartender provided a service attitude corresponding to Mi Lai's spending power.
"The guest probably just came to Wupu City not long ago and doesn't know much about the features here."
"The characteristic you are referring to is the four-person group that uses rich body language to use the pub as a stage to deliver passionate speeches with full of emotion?"
The bartender joked: "We are happy to accept the free resident clown's performance, but unfortunately, their performance is not recognized, which troubles us very much."
"Tell me about it?"
"Has the guest ever heard of the Forbidden Demon Sect?"
This is not a name that is unfamiliar to Mi Lai. She has dealt with related incidents during her glorious incarnation.
Generally speaking, the Forbidden Demon Sect believes that magic is the problem that causes huge differences. As long as the use of magic is suppressed and controlled, most of the current conflicts can be resolved.
This sect, which seems to be completely opposite to magicians, has magicians as its core members, and their ranks are not low. This makes many magicians laugh at the Forbidden Magic Sect in the hope that everyone will put down their weapons and become the world's leader. The strongest.
No one really takes the Forbidden Demon Sect seriously, and the magician group is too lazy to even end the dispute. Magic exists in this world, and you can use it at will. They will only repeatedly promote their own ideas and how much trouble an inferior organization can cause. The waves?
Others may not know this, but the Theocracy, which has always been sensitive to religion and belief, has conducted investigations. Since the birth of the Demon-Forbidden Sect, which has been ridiculed by magicians, the number of its followers has increased year by year.
This is not something that can be fooled by "fooling the people," but reflects the current ambivalent mentality of ordinary people wandering between hopelessness and desire.
Smart people naturally know that it is impossible to hope that the strong will put down their weapons and restrain themselves, but for those who are desperate, the comfort given by the Forbidden Demon Sect is as warm as the sun in the sky.
The Theocracy has not banned other sects and beliefs in the country, but the harsh missionary environment has left the Forbidden Demon Sect with no market at all. They often face a fatal question: "If magic is the root of all problems, then the brilliance of possessing magic God, isn’t he an evil god?”
It would be okay if you were facing a sane believer under Laurent's teachings, but if you met a fanatic believer, if you answered this question incorrectly, the people waiting for the Forbidden Demon Sect would only be endless.
Unlike the Theocracy, Solon does not have a single major religion in the true sense. Here, the major sects are full of vigor and vitality, and all kinds of earthy religious beliefs emerge in endlessly. It’s no different than a junk church trying to get parents’ money.
Therefore, this is indeed the first time that Mi Lai has seen the Forbidden Demon Sect preaching. Their preaching is simple and direct. They go wherever there are many people. They don't care about the eyes of outsiders, and they don't mind cynicism. They remain silent in the face of anger and indifference and care for themselves. Doing your own thing.
Like stones that suddenly appeared in the river, the hustle and bustle of the tavern was temporarily stagnated by them. The adventurers who were forced to listen to the preaching content waited impatiently for them to leave so that they could enjoy their wine and meat.
Like Sera, Miley does not believe in God. The person closest to God in her heart is Laurend. For him, Miley, who is a half-breed siren, joined the radiant incarnation to protect a lie that she knew well. Just for more people who need the comfort it provides.
Milai, who had no interest in faith after leaving the Theocracy, almost sneered in front of the girl who took out the scroll and walked towards him.
The girl seemed not to be surprised by this. She smiled and said: "We are taciturn people who work for those who cannot awaken. It would be an honor to be recognized by you. Is this lady interested in learning more about the Forbidden Demon Sect? knowledge?”
