Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 794 The Purvi to the Maztec Continent

Lynn didn't rest for a long time, so he asked Hill to borrow Liszt. He had to negotiate with Lila about the price of all resources: this lady is not trustworthy at all, and there is a possibility that she will take advantage of loopholes.

Laila has always been willful and reckless, and it is likely that she deliberately created some excitement in order to attract some people to Luskan, but Lynn is not willing to let Hill suffer such a big loss.

It was indeed possible to play that kind of gimmick in Faerun Continent in the past. At that time, there were only so many merchants who could travel far, and even if adventurers wanted to make money, they could only make a difference of 1 or 2 items.

But now there are nearly [-] million undead people. Not only do these guys have a lot of storage space, but they are also rich, not to mention the very economically minded people among them: Lynn has long discovered that These middlemen, who are good at buying and selling, can not only make money from the same family, but also make the price difference between several cities.

For a person like Laila, it's useless to stress troubles to her, she doesn't care about troubles at all... At most, she will get rid of them immediately after something happens, but if this is the case, it will not be good for Hill's reputation.

Moreover, Lynn felt that after learning the truth, Hill probably chose to bear the loss instead of hurting his honor by changing orders day and night.

He was not Laila who knew little about the undead, and he didn't think that the undead would make a lot of money by taking advantage of the price difference between the two cities.

At that time, Hill will pay the bill.Lynn would never agree to such a thing.

The reason why he came back now is that Leila's city government has been initially set up, and she has to write a letter of appointment, and then give it to Hill for stamping.

Then I had to hold a meeting with those officials and the city guards before I could discuss with him the pricing of supplies between the two cities.

However, most of these officials are from Aglaia City, and they are basically used to the style of the undead, so there shouldn't be any discomfort.

Hill is powerful enough to turn all the undercurrents into calm. At least for a few years, these officials will work honestly.

In the future... it will depend on whether Luskan is so prosperous that people can no longer bear the greed.

Lynn is very clear that no matter how well he speaks and how upright he behaves now, not many people can hold on to their original intentions in the face of the gradually becoming stronger temptation.

He doesn't even believe in himself, let alone anyone else.

"Hill..." Lynn was about to speak, but stopped when he saw Hill throwing his seal of the city lord around.

"Respect your seal...it will be troublesome if it is lost or broken." Lin En couldn't help but say something.

Of course he knew that this seal was very strong. It was made by Hill with meteorite iron mixed with fine gold and some special metals, and the writing on it was so deep that even the pattern in the notch could be clearly seen. Most people don’t have this. It can be carved.

After all, that kind of meteoric iron is actually the main material of the Demon-Breaking Dagger, and magic cannot be used. Hill also used a strange alloy formula, which has a terrifyingly high ignition point. At least the steel-making furnace cannot burn it at all.

But... Lynn sighed helplessly. Hill always threw such precious things around. If it wasn't for the need to use it in Luskan this time, his friend would have almost forgotten that he still has this thing.

In the usual Aglaia, affairs can be confirmed with a small seal of the city lord... As we all know, that seal is in his hand, Lynn.

Lynn doubted that Hill would use such good materials to make this purple-gold seal that didn't even use ink pads, because when the city was built, he believed in the ancient experience taught by those people.

He probably didn't understand that the seal of the city lord of Silvermoon City was nothing more than mithril mixed with fine gold powder.

Now it's all right, this seal is indeed strong enough, so strong that Hill can use it to play parabolic games in the air.

Hill hesitated before saying, "I was just wondering... Will this seal be placed with Martha in the future?"

"Luskan here, after confirming these senior officials, you don't need to keep running to stamp them." Lynn reassured Hill who found it troublesome.

He could feel that Hill didn't pay much attention to Luskan, maybe the whole city was not as important to him as Tarling Ruth.

But where you got it, why give it up?
Lynn thought for a while before saying: "Hill, are you worried that you will leave Toril in the future, so you need someone to keep this seal?"

Hill nodded silently.

"When you leave, you can put the seal in the Temple of Aglaia." Lynn said bluntly, "Martha's place...isn't it really safe? What if a god makes a move?

These are all uncertain things. Here in Toril, everything that happens is normal.

Only Aglaia, if something happened, she should have a way to send that seal directly to her kingdom of God, right?

If there is any major event, you can ask Martha to go to the Temple of Aglaia. For other small matters, the small seal in my hand is enough. "

Lynn sighed. In Hill's heart, Toril will always be just a stopover here... He doesn't plan to stay here for a long time.

I just hope his friends don't leave too early or too fast.

Hill felt Lynn's regret, and smiled and said, "You worried too early! I was just thinking about traveling. I will definitely not leave Toril in a short time! The legend of Midnight... ...I must watch the finale."

He really wanted to see if the Maztec Continent had really exchanged with a continent in another world.

Lynn raised his eyebrows in surprise: "At this time, do you still want to run outside?"

"If the undead didn't come back, I would definitely stay in Aglaia." Hill said indifferently, "Aren't they coming back now?
The gods cannot descend, and ordinary mages cannot even use magic... The number of arcanists, if they want to return to the peak again, they must be cultivated at least dozens or even hundreds of years.

Now on the continent of Faerun, who else can compete with them? "

No matter how many fighters there are in other countries, can they resist the undead who can use spells?
In fact, at this time, Aglaia is the safest.

Hill wants to get around while Midnight is still a teenager... he'll definitely have to come back to see the action when the lady starts to slowly remember who she is.

Lynn finally understood what Hill wanted to do. After thinking about it, he nodded in agreement: Rather than looking at the strange growth of the Midnight Girl here, it is better to wait for her to wake up and see what the goddess has. feel.

After Hill finished his chapter, Lynn went into the negotiation with Leila again.

The tug-of-war between the two lasted for nearly three days, and with the assistance of the two Talings, they finally reached an agreement: he still gave in a step, and the various crafts, magic materials and even strange object fragments that Lila bought from Icewind Dale, You can set your own price, and you don't need to keep it consistent with the one on the mainland.

The rest are normal economic exchanges. In this regard, both Leila and Lynn are very straightforward, so the negotiation has almost come to an end quickly.

During this period, Hill built a bridge 10 meters above the water in the middle and east of the Miral River. For Toril, the maximum height of the magic ship would not exceed 7 meters. , there should be no problem.

However, during this period, in addition to the clergymen of Tyre and Heim who started to build their own temples on the north shore of Luskan, a group of Tempus priests also found Lila, hoping to build the temple of the Lord of Battle here.

This group of Tempus priests... In fact, everyone knows what they want to do, which is to be able to advance to become Tempus War Guards.

Warguards are indeed very good war supporters, but many people find it unreasonable for their boss Tempus to advance to the requirements: first of all, they cannot be in the lawful camp... This is understandable, war... will always be It's disrupting order.

But the most important one... You must have participated in at least five battles, and be on the winning side of at least three battles with 50 or more people participating.

This is very difficult. Tempus also asked his pastor not to be the one who started the war. Although he can make insinuations and entice others to do it, when there is no initiative, the direction of the war is easy to lose.

For so many years, the priests of Tempus have participated in countless battles, but it is said that there are no more than 2000 people who can advance to war guards.

So after discovering that Luskan was about to enter the war, this group of Tempus priests rushed over from Baldur's Gate without hesitation, not even much later than the Paladins of Tyr... They were Riding a griffin.

Hill, who was notified by Lila, agreed to their request after thinking for a while.

Just to make Baldur's Gate lose the best source of soldiers, Hill will agree to this request.

Although he didn't intend to talk to those villains, Hill was not without a temper.

Moreover, there is another point, if they are here, the group of Heim will be uncomfortable... Compared to Tyre, Tempus hates Heim more... Their two styles of doing things are completely incompatible.

Hill felt that the only unstable factor in Luskan was the Temple of Helm. They might turn against Lila for a trivial matter... Even if they suddenly turned against Lila during the battle, it would not be of much use, the undead would definitely Teach them a lesson enough, but it would be better if someone could keep an eye on them all the time.

The priest of Tempus, in order not to let his advancement be dragged down, will definitely look after the people of Heim dutifully.

Hill's vigilance towards Heim is not something that can be said.

Sometimes, he wondered if the patron saint had been replaced by AO.

Fortunately, neither Lynn nor Laila had any reaction to Hill's arrangement of the northern temple area to several major temples in order, and the Temple of Heim was sandwiched between the Temple of Tyr and the Temple of Tempus.

After everything came to an end, Hill, who returned to Aglaia, packed up his luggage, put the seal of the lord of the city in the temple of Aglaia, and put it away. On a sunny dawn, he sat on Pulvi Headed to the Maztec continent.

　Warguards are the formidable soldier chaplains of Tempus who specialize in all aspects of military affairs.They are strategists and tacticians, possessing the knowledge and subterfuge to swing battles before they even begin.As battle smiths and support staff, they labor to forge weapons and equipment for their devoted warriors, even on the toughest marches.They are also stern instructors and demanding overseers who understand the power of recognizing and rewarding heroism and easily earn the unwavering loyalty of their troops.They are battle fanatics and divine champions who inspire their followers to epic feats of bravery and daring, all in honor of the name of Tempus.

Whenever possible, warguards take steps to prepare their companions for the coming battle, and use healing magic to revive those who fall in valiant battle.These holy warriors are usually organized according to military hierarchies.Common classes from high to low include: War Priest, Swordsman, Dread Sword, Lord's Lance, God's Shield, Female Swordsman/Male Swordsman, Battle Maiden/Warlord, but these are usually equal in status , such as Battle Priest of the Temple or Sword of Trust of the Temple.The upper echelon of the church assigns ranks based on tasks, needs, and current circumstances.In desperate circumstances, appointments are often made on an ad hoc basis.

Most warguards are clergymen of Tempus, but there are also many who combine multiple classes, such as barbarian, divine wrath, or fighter.They generally serve in the various combat forces in the country
