Lord of Arcane

Chapter 237
Xia Duo feels that he should find a full-time blacksmith for the territory, so that he can build whatever is needed at any time, wouldn't it be beautiful!

But when Xia Duo and Director Arman talked about recruiting blacksmiths, the other party shook his head again and again, saying that it was almost impossible for him to recruit redundant blacksmiths.

"Arman is in charge. Except for blacksmiths, any other craftsmen are also in urgent need of the territory. Please pay more attention to this aspect."

"Yes." Arman could not refuse Xia Duo's request after all, and agreed.

However, Xia Duo also knew that there was a shortage of craftsmen everywhere, and he didn't expect to find someone with superb skills, as long as he could barely use it.

Or those who are talented, he is also willing to cultivate.

After some conversations and finalizing all the details, Xia Duo returned to the Mage Tower and prepared to spend the night in the library. He will not be able to come for more than ten days after leaving this time, so he still needs to make full use of it.

……

Early the next morning, Xia Duo took the "Lucky Owen" back to Daxia, and seemed to feel the anxiety of the lord. Owen ordered the crew to row with all their strength, without stopping for a moment.

Just after noon, the "Lucky Owen" stopped steadily near the landing point.

After 4 and a half days, Xia Duo was in a very complicated mood when he set foot on the land of Daxia Territory again.Here, in this start-up territory with almost nothing, he finally feels at home.

For a long time, although he tried his best to integrate into this magical world, he always felt a sense of alienation from the bottom of his heart. Only now did he know that wandering wanderers always need to take root and sprout.

As for Da Xia Ling, he will take root here, no matter what the future holds, this is his home now.

For a while, Xia Duo was in high spirits, and various thoughts flashed back and forth in his mind about how to manage his three-acre land, complicated and complicated. He was not beaten back until Leiden came to invite him to witness the opening of the altar. Reality.

"Master Leiden, the altar was built so quickly?" Xia Duo asked curiously.

He thought it would take at least ten days and half a month to repair this thing, but he didn't expect it to be so fast, even if it is pure wood, it may not be so fast!

While leading Xia Duo to the altar, Leiden explained to Xia Duo: "My lord, the most important thing about the altar is regulation and holy power. If you don't consider long-term use, it doesn't even take half a day to repair it."

The two, one in front of the other, passed through a piece of temporary housing, and further south was the "construction site" that was being developed. Dozens of people were distributed along the east-west line and moved southward.

Shrubs and miscellaneous trees were brought down, and even the weeds could not escape the "poisonous hands" of these leaders, but all plants higher than the ankles were cleared away.

And with so many people working together, even with the lack of tools, the "front" has been pushed south by nearly [-] meters in the past few days.

As for the slaves, because their bodies have not recovered, Qiao Qi and Layton arranged for them to do some light work later after discussing, in short, they cannot be left idle.

And they have one more task than ordinary citizens, which is to recite the "Lord's Quotations" written by Xia Duo. There are too few people now, and it is still too early to talk about the law.

At present, some regulations are still announced in the form of quotations, mostly codes of conduct. The style is different from other places, but it is not difficult to do.

It's just a way to reinforce their obedience.

As for the ordinary citizens, of course they couldn't escape, but they didn't take compulsory measures. After they saw the transformation of the slaves, they would naturally take the initiative to learn.

After passing through the front line of logging, Xia Duo and Layton had already entered the jungle. After walking for nearly [-] meters, Xia Duo saw a circular open space with a size of two meters.

The weeds and humus on the ground have been cleaned up, revealing dark brown soil with dense and fuzzy footprints on it. Xia Duo didn't feel soft when he stepped on it, obviously it had been trampled firmly.

A layer of pebbles was paved about one meter in the middle, and on top of it was a half-meter-high circular altar made of wood. A hole was dug in the center, and a stone bowl was placed inside.

The traces are very new, as if they were chiseled out recently.

On the upper surface of the wooden altar, that is, around the stone bowl, the holy emblem of the Lord of Radiance—the sun with a face—is engraved in the east and west directions.

This is probably the simple "father-in-law" of the Nether people!

The whole body of the altar is engraved with the text of "Proverbs", as well as some patterns of unknown meaning.

At this time, in Xia Duo's eyes, the so-called altar is just an ordinary item, without any extraordinary power, it depends on what Layton does now.

It's impossible not to be curious, not to mention that as a mage, just a person on earth, how could he not have the idea of ​​spying on the "God".

"let's start."

Saying that, Xia Duo took a step back and motioned for Layton to start.

"Yes."

Layton responded, then stood on the east side of the altar, knelt down on one knee, raised the holy emblem (a magic weapon), and began to pray to the sun hanging above his head and slightly to the west.

Xia Duo didn't feel anything at first, but as Layton's voice became louder, a hazy radiance appeared around Layton, and spread unstoppably to the surroundings.

Xia Duo took another step back, but he was still wrapped in this brilliance. In this brilliance, Xia Duo felt the beauty of order in the world.

From the natural order of high mountains and flowing water, the birth and death of elements, to the humanistic order of national class and self-regulation, everything in the world is in order.

As soon as this idea was born in his heart, Xia Duo felt that the radiance was so bright that he felt a sense of warmth, like the sun in winter, not only warming the body, but also warming the heart.

But that's all.

The brilliance quickly converged, concentrated on the holy emblem (magic weapon) in Layton's hand, and finally projected to the holy emblem (pattern) on the altar.

And the holy emblem on the altar never rejects anyone who comes, and absorbs all the brilliance, so it appeared in Xia Duo's eyes, and a scene almost miraculous appeared——

This simple wooden mosaic altar has slowly changed its material, blending with the stone bowl above it, becoming a material that is neither gold nor wood nor stone.

In the magic vision, the altar was already filled with dazzling sacred light, and an invisible aura spread out, covering the two meters around the altar.

In this range, countless small bugs crawled out of the ground one after another, fleeing away as if fleeing for their lives.

Xia Duo was lamenting the wonder of the altar, and Leiden, who was kneeling on the ground over there, couldn't hold on anymore, collapsed on the ground, and began to cry, muttering in his mouth at the same time:

"My lord, you are the lord of brilliance, the lord of order."

"Leighton? Leighton, are you all right?"

Xia Duo stepped forward and patted Layton on the shoulder, but unexpectedly, Layton immediately hugged his leg, "My lord, I saw it, I saw it, my lord showed me His way, my lord, Your word will be done on earth!"

Then Leiden described to Xia Duo what he saw in the brilliance—the scene of strict laws, well-organized government and harmonious people in Daxia.

Not only that, he also vividly talked about a "Tax Law", which is collected in stages according to the amount of income, and a "Traffic Law", which even stipulates that you must try to move on the right side of the road.

"My lord, all advance to the right, so that there will be no conflicts for the road."

Seeing Layton's frenzied appearance, Xia Duo wanted to say something, he didn't even see the road, what "Traffic Law" was he thinking about!
However, Leiden was able to see the vision of the future Daxia Territory from the appearance of the Lord of Radiance, as well as traffic laws and tax laws. This is indeed something Xia Duo might do.

Does God really have foreknowledge?

Then why didn't he see it as the lord?Or can only believers see it?Or is it just a deduction based on personal thoughts?
