MTL - Age of Empires From Scratch-Chapter 254 Gwen's Father's Invitation
Chapter 254 Gwen's Father's Invitation
Holy Light has become the main belief in Winter City, which is what David hopes most.
If the natives of Brennia don’t believe in the Holy Light, but instead believe in the gods in the temple, he will feel a headache instead, and he doesn’t even know how to deal with it?
Fortunately, things didn't go in that direction. Raines' missionary work in Cold Winter City was very difficult, and the people in Cold Winter City had no interest in the gods in the temple.
The reason is simple: the Holy Light can actually help people solve problems such as injuries and diseases; the pastors of the Holy Light Church help everyone do everything they can without asking for anything in return.
What about the temple? I have never seen that missionary really help!
Because of the "philosophy of life" of the Church of the Holy Light, the believers of the Holy Light can always be recognized by people in the shortest time, and the believers of the Holy Light who do good deeds everywhere without asking for anything in return will also be regarded by many people as messengers of justice.
In addition, David, who uses Holy Light, also has a good reputation in Winter City.
Maybe the new residents don't know what the Holy Light is all about? But the old people in Winter City don’t think it’s such a troublesome thing to popularize this information for these latecomers, and they even enjoy it, and add fuel and vinegar appropriately, saying to these latecomers, “It’s right for you to come to Winter City, It should have come long ago, let me tell you... blah blah blah blah...'.
The newcomers may be a little skeptical at first, but when they run into trouble and go to the pastors of the Church of the Holy Light for help, those young pastors will indeed do their best to help until the problem is solved...or find someone who can Someone who helps solve problems.
Under such circumstances, it is difficult for the temple missionaries to move an inch in Cold Winter City. Now Rains is completely at a loss as to what to do. He keeps thinking whether the situation in Cold Winter City is special? Or is it that your own ability is not enough? Is it really that difficult to bring the favor of the gods to the north?
Under such circumstances, his mental state has not been very good, and because of this, Wilcox and others have obtained more information, including the so-called 'Old God'.
Listening to Van Cleef's report, David was surprised to find that the old gods called by the temple were actually Leluti, the goddess of harvest, and Sehe, the **** of war.
"The Goddess of Harvest and the God of War are old gods?"
"According to the information Wilcox inquired, it is indeed so."
David rubbed his chin. The temple called the gods who helped humans to overthrow the dark elf kingdom and made humans stand on the continent of Brunnia as the old gods, and they had obvious hostility. The many gods enshrined in the temple are not from the same faction as those two?
It seems that the man behind the scenes on the human side is much more complicated than the situation on the dark elf side?
Of course, it is also possible that these behind-the-scenes black hands are fighting each other, and all races, including humans, are just pawns of the gods, and the ownership of these pawns does not always belong to a specific god?
"This situation is getting more and more chaotic, hey!"
David smiled lightly, and didn't dwell too much on these situations.
With his current strength, it seems that there is no need to entangle the factions and struggles among the gods, and he is not going to draw these chess players out early.
Currently, his target is still the various races on the Brennia continent. He will continue to accumulate strength in the process of fighting against these chess pieces, and prepare for possible higher-level battles by the way.
Gently waved his hands, indicating that Van Cleef could continue to do his own thing. David turned his chair and looked out of the window. Thick clouds had appeared in the sky outside, and the northern land, which was still a little bright, fell into darkness early. among.
The lights in the office had already been turned on, and Helen walked in to greet David to have dinner when Van Cleef left.
"Didn't continue to rest today?"
"Don't underestimate my physical fitness, I have recovered." Helen looked ruddy and energetic, and her voice was a little higher than usual when she spoke.
Everyone can tell that she is in a good mood, especially the upturned corners of her mouth, as if hooked.
"Especially after going to the dungeon."
After the training and baptism in the dungeon, Helen's physical fitness has indeed improved a lot, and her temperament has also undergone some changes.
The original Helen was beautiful and delicate, like a piece of fragile porcelain that needed good care.
The current Helen is still beautiful, but the fragile feeling is much weaker. As for the caring and loving temperament, it will only be shown in front of David.
"Wait for the mission led by Sutton Stewart to leave, and then I will take you to continue to clear the dungeon." David originally wanted to clear the level on normal difficulty in one go, but just in time for the mission to come to Cold Winter City, and Princess Sophia. He had no choice but to put this plan aside for the time being.
Following Helen to the dining room, they found that Laura, Eva, and Gwen were all sitting at the dining table. The servants of Glamorgan Castle had already arranged the food, and they were waiting for David, the host, to be seated.
"There are so many people today! What's the matter?"
"It's nothing, it just happens that everyone is here and having dinner together." Laura saw David sitting down, picked up the knife and fork and began to enjoy the food in front of him: "The number of times you sit and eat dinner together like this, actually Not much, right?"
"The main reason is that Gwen can't stay here often." David glanced at Gwen, and suddenly remembered the piece of leather from before. I don't know what Gwen did with it?
"What are you talking about? I asked Pierre to help make it into equipment, but it will take a few days to get it." Someone started talking, and Gwen's current atmosphere was a bit strange, but they still chatted: "These two days I After learning something new with Vanessa, I suddenly realized that I seem to have the talent to be an assassin."
"Are you learning to sneak?"
"Yes!" Gwen directly performed for everyone on the spot. Everyone saw that Gwen, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly disappeared gradually. Nothing at all.
A moment later, Gwen's figure reappeared, looking at everyone with a smile, as if waiting for everyone's praise.
"Awesome!"
Learning to sneak is accompanied by huge risks. It is said that when SI7 in Stormwind trains intelligence personnel to learn to sneak, a large number of trainees have accidents every year, such as entering the gap between the shadow and reality and never coming out, or Falling directly into another plane and so on.
But learning any mysterious side knowledge has a lot of risks, and Gwen is learning smoothly now, so there is no need to pour cold water on this situation.
In private, David was going to remind Gwen to be a little more careful. In this case, it's enough to boast.
Moreover, the topic that Gwen opened made the strange atmosphere completely disappear. After all, it was not the first time for the girls at the dinner table to meet each other. They had previously worked together to spawn monsters in the dungeon!
"That's great, I can only learn the priest's holy light spell." Eva said that after leaving the dungeon, she tried to learn some new things, but unfortunately only the priest's holy light master learned it quickly, and other knowledge can be learned by herself. Can't learn at all.
Helen said that she didn't even get started with Holy Light, and she was having a headache now, what kind of power should she learn?
Hearing Helen's problem, Eva gave her own suggestion: "Holy Light? If you really can't learn it, you can ask David to help you."
Laura gave another option, if Helen is not interested in the Holy Light: "Arcane is also available, I heard that Sharon has been learning their skills from the high elf spellbreakers brought by Cirvanas during this time." Combat skills."
For the people of Winter City, holy light and arcane energy are currently the two easiest energies to master.
The former has more and more Holy Light users in Winter City, and latecomers can not only learn and understand by themselves, but also find familiar people to help instill the Holy Light.
As for the latter, since Pierre Newton came to Cold Winter Town, the acquisition of arcane energy has become very simple, and the real difficulty is 'whether this energy can be mobilized'.
As long as Helen can mobilize arcane energy, obtaining arcane energy is actually a very simple matter.
In this case, as a woman who is the Lord of Winter City, she can choose according to her preferences.
Besides Helen who was hesitating which power to choose, Gwen was also discussing similar topics with David, but what she wanted to learn was not power, but more combat skills.
After fighting in the dungeon, she found that what she lacked now was not some mysterious power, but a systematic learning how to fight.
"It was indeed my negligence!" David also ignored this point, Gwen was just an ordinary high school student, how could she know how to fight?
Besides, Helen is also in a similar situation. The two of them performed well in the dungeon before, mainly because David and Laura took care of them...and the difficulty of the dungeon is relatively low at this time.
"Which skill do you want to learn? Firearms? Daggers? Short blades? Long swords?"
"I want to learn hand-to-hand combat." Gwen's reason is very good. In her own world, she can't take out a weapon casually. Some small conflicts are better resolved with bare hands. As for the use of weapons, she will of course learn .
"No problem at all!"
"By the way, there is another thing."
"What?"
Gwen originally wanted to talk to David in private, but when she looked around, Helen was discussing various power situations with Eva and Laura, so she probably didn't notice herself.
So she moved closer to David and invited him in a low voice: "Father noticed that I had a boyfriend, so I want to invite you to my house as a guest."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly found that the surroundings became very quiet. When he turned his head slightly, he saw that the other women had stopped discussing and stared at themselves and David together.
"Cough~ I'll see which day I'm free."
