Chapter 311: Weather Forecast Officially Goes Live

Just then, a burly old farmer walked in from outside.

Though this description sounded weird, anyone who saw him would probably think the same thing.

Over two meters tall—in this day and age, most knights couldn’t reach that height. His body was robust, all muscle at first glance, but his hair was already gray. You could tell at a glance he was getting up there in years.

He was the greatest authority holder of the Church of Agriculture in the mortal realm, the Hunting Pope of the Church of Agriculture.

The Goddess of Agriculture’s most devout follower.

The moment he appeared in this room, everyone perked up and bowed in greeting.

"Your Holiness."

"Your Eminence."

"How are the preparations?"

The Hunting Pope looked around before speaking.

"Everything’s ready. Support from the Church of Love and Beauty has also arrived, but we’re not planning to use their people on camera. They’ll just be coordinating with us off-camera..."

Immediately, a middle-aged man who looked very shrewd stepped forward quickly and began introducing the current situation.

It sounded a bit strange—cooperating with the Church of Love and Beauty, having them provide support, but then not letting their support appear on camera, just coordinating off-camera work. But as a long-term program, this choice seemed correct.

Today, they indeed had a good relationship with the Church of Love and Beauty, and they were willing to send some people over to help. But what if they had a falling out someday? Would they let the show go down with them?

In comparison, the best choice was to have them coordinate off-camera.

Recently, under the leadership of that newly promoted archbishop, the Church of Love and Beauty had been doing live streaming, videos, and sales with great enthusiasm. Daily revenue of millions of gold coins—who knew how many experienced and excellent behind-the-scenes personnel they’d trained.

They were skilled at lighting, filming, makeup, pacing, stage control... Just these things alone were enough to bring many excellent effects.

The Hunting Pope became more and more satisfied as he listened.

"This is tomorrow’s weather conditions for various places. I had the war clerics stationed in various places compile statistics... Of course, only within human territory or areas with many humans. If it’s a country entirely composed of other races, we didn’t collect statistics."

After hearing the report, the Hunting Pope directly pulled out a stack of papers.

"This is already enough."

The middle-aged man was very pleased. After saying a couple sentences, he quickly took the papers and walked toward the prepared room.

Time passed minute by minute. With the assistance of professionals from the Church of Love and Beauty, everything was ready.

The moment the News Broadcast from the World Economic News Agency in Roster territory finished playing, the official livestream of the Church of Agriculture started.

Because they’d been promoting in various forums, group chats, and videos during this time, quite a few people came to watch.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t easy to confirm in reality whether a noble had a second-gen Magic Net ring. Otherwise, the numbers should have been even higher.

The area covered by the Church of Agriculture was really too vast. Every church was doing this without sparing any effort. The scope of influence was really too large.

The key was that the Church of Agriculture had a relatively transcendent status in this world.

Once a territory had a Church of Agriculture or a Church of Abundance, it meant that territory’s yield would increase by over thirty percent. Doubling it wasn’t a dream.

For land nobles, this was literally manna from heaven.

Those farmers would naturally most likely believe too.

Who wouldn’t want to produce more grain?!

The opening music was something they’d commissioned from the Church of Music.

Pretty distinctive.

Listening to it gave you a natural feeling.

The Hunting Pope nodded with satisfaction. "In the future, as soon as this sound plays, I want everyone to know it’s the Church of Agriculture’s weather forecast... If we succeed this time, from now on, have all the churches under us broadcast at this time every day too. Let those without Magic Net also benefit, and while we’re at it, cultivate the habit."

He had a premonition that it wouldn’t be long before Magic Net rings would be in everyone’s hands.

Everyone would be able to go online.

If that was the case, then invest now, cultivate the habit, and in the future, once they had Magic Net, the first thing they’d definitely do was follow themselves.

As he let his imagination run wild, the music ended. At this moment, their livestream viewer count had just reached a hundred thousand.

A hundred thousand people on the first livestream was definitely an incredible achievement.

How many people were on Magic Net total?

The host was someone the Church of Agriculture had carefully selected recently, a cleric who looked very youthful and beautiful.

Originally, she was just a staff member at a church in some city-state of the City-State Alliance, responsible for guiding believers and receiving visitors. But during this round of auditions, His Holiness personally selected her, believing her temperament was most fitting for the agriculture attribute.

"Good evening, everyone. Welcome to watch the weather forecast by the Church of Agriculture."

"Currently, this major cold snap will continue for the next three days. This will be especially noticeable in the northern part of the Kingdom of Dawn... Even the Highland Kingdom and City-State Alliance will be affected to some extent..."

The host first gave an overall summary based on the summarized continental climate conditions. After finishing the summary, she suddenly changed topics. "Next, we’ll introduce tomorrow’s weather conditions for various regions."

"Kingdom of Dawn capital, tomorrow clear turning to cloudy, northwest light breeze..."

"Kingdom of Dawn, Roster territory, tomorrow clear..."

"Gray Fort Empire..."

"Hill Lands Commonwealth..."

One place name after another was continuously announced. Each region’s specific weather conditions, wind direction, wind strength, and temperature were all included. They even appropriately reminded people what agricultural work should be done locally.

For example, it was predicted that tomorrow afternoon there would be rain in the City of Epic in the City-State Alliance. This season happened to be when local wheat matured, so they suggested completing the harvest before noon tomorrow.

There were many more like this.

What was even more ridiculous was that, whether there was a magician or some special divine art blessing, whenever a new location and new weather was introduced, the host’s clothes would change.

Letting people clearly judge what the weather was like in that place right now.

Many people in the livestream were calling out "holy crap!"

The audience who’d originally just come to join in the fun listened to the explanation and became more and more serious.

"Worthy of being the Church of Agriculture!"

"The clerics of the Church of Agriculture are really amazing!"

"They can actually predict tomorrow’s weather precisely for each territory. Too amazing!"

"It’s actually going to rain here tomorrow? The weather looks really clear right now though?"

"Which genius thought of matching different weather with different outfits, and completing it instantly? If the Church of Love and Beauty couldn’t predict weather, I’d suspect they were hosting this show!"

"Thanks for the reminder! I’m going to harvest wheat overnight tonight. If it really rains tomorrow, I’ll go donate some gold coins at the Church of Agriculture!!"

Off-camera, the Hunting Pope looked at the livestream situation, a slight smile appearing at the corners of his mouth. His evaluation of the Southern Archbishop of the Kingdom of Dawn rose several more levels in his heart. "Worthy of someone who hung around with Viscount Roster. Just a little suggestion brought such good results."
