Valon: Even a supporting character can change his fate.
Chapter 594 Arrival in Town
Valon first asked the other party if he knew the town they were going to next. After getting an affirmative answer, he asked him if he knew the infrastructure inside the town and the population.
"I don't know about the infrastructure, but I know that there is a blacksmith shop, a grocery store, a mercenary association, a church, and the lord's castle in that town."
"Wait, you said there's a church in this town. What faith is it?"
Hearing Valon's question, Vanessa looked at Valon as if he were a fool and said, "Of course I believe in the God of Light."
Valon nodded and signaled the other party to continue.
"As for the exact number of residents, I don't know, but there are probably around 150 to 160 permanent residents, and some mercenaries who do things for money."
He then asked the other party a few more questions. After getting answers, Valon nodded with satisfaction. As agreed, he explained the concept of gravity and what gravity was.
After acquiring new knowledge, Vanessa was so happy that she couldn't express it in words. At the same time, she became more determined to stay close to Valon so that she could learn more scientific knowledge.
Knowing that he couldn't drive her away, Valon let her follow him, but he repeatedly reminded her that she could follow him but she shouldn't nag him all the time, and that their relationship would end after they arrived in the town and there was no room for negotiation.
Seeing Valon's firm attitude, Vanessa had no choice but to agree.
However, on the way to the town, Valon still taught Vanessa a lot of scientific knowledge. Even though this knowledge was only the most basic, it was already a treasure for Vanessa.
When they arrived in the town, even though Vanessa was unwilling, she did not continue to make trouble, but just left with regret on her face.
Arriving at the city gate, there were two armored guards standing on the left and right of the gate, checking people coming in and out to prevent any dangerous elements, especially dark creatures disguised as humans, from sneaking into the town and causing harm to the town residents or even the lords.
Fortunately, the Church of Light distributes special magic crystals to every area with a church.
As long as you are illuminated by the magic crystal, no matter what kind of dark creature you are, your true form will be revealed.
Therefore, those who want to enter the town not only have to pay an entrance fee of one silver coin, but also have to be exposed to the magic crystal.
For ordinary residents of this world, the entrance fee of one silver coin is not low. It is enough to feed a normal family of three for most of half a month.
Therefore, for those who have already entered the city, try not to go out unless necessary, otherwise you will have to pay when you come back.
Then the question is, some people may find it strange that since the entrance fee is so high, why not just not enter the city?
But the problem is that there is a dark forest nearby. In the dark forest are hidden all kinds of bloodthirsty beasts, terrifying dark creatures, especially those mad hatters who kill people without blinking an eye.
As for those villages, do you see any protection at all? There isn't even a decent earth wall. It's okay to deal with those harassing wild beasts, but for the dark creatures, they are just public toilets that can be entered and exited at will.
But this town is different. Not only does it have walls made of stone, but it also has guards wearing armor and holding weapons.
Even if the price of staying in the town is a bit higher, at least your life safety is guaranteed.
Although Valon does not have the currency of this world in his hands, his ring can hold a lot of precious metals.
Valon took out a silver ingot, looked at the silver coins used by these people, held it in his hand, and when Valon opened his hand again, the silver ingot had turned into brand new silver coins.
When Valon arrived at the city gate, the gate guard didn't waste any time. He first used the magic crystal in his hand to shine a light on Valon from head to toe to make sure that he was not a dark creature, then stretched out his hand and signaled Valon to pay.
It can be seen that the guards really treat everyone equally, no matter whether you are an ordinary person or some other dignitary, even if you are a clergyman, as long as you are not a lord or his family, you have to pay to enter the city.
Valon didn't say anything more. He just handed over a silver coin and strode into the city.
Since Valon had paid the money and the other party was not a dark creature, the guards naturally had no intention of stopping him.
After entering the city, Valon did not rush to the church, but walked around the town first, paying attention to the situation inside the town and observing the daily conditions of the townspeople.
As he walked, Wallon arrived at the door of the church.
Looking up, I have to say that this church is truly magnificent, with a flat stone floor, a three-story spire, stained glass windows and quaint, heavy wooden doors.
"It seems that the influence of the Church of Light in this world is really not small."
Thinking of this, Walon pushed the door and walked in.
Perhaps it was just a coincidence that Valon arrived. After pushing the door open, he happened to meet the eyes of the pastor standing on the pulpit.
At this time, the pastor was cleaning the church. Hearing the sound of the wooden door being pushed open, he looked towards the door and saw Wallon coming in.
The pastor could tell at a glance that the other person was also a priest of the Church of Light like himself. However, judging from his appearance and age, he should have just completed his studies and was probably a traveling priest.
While the pastor was looking at Valon, Valon was also looking at the pastor on the stage.
Judging from his appearance, he should be in his forties, and compared to those ordinary people outside, he is obviously living a much better life.
Not only did he have shiny white skin, but at first glance he looked like the type of person who ate well and didn't work in the fields. Moreover, unlike the coarse cloth clothes worn by ordinary people, this pastor was wearing a set of pure white silk.
Good guy, Valon is straight up good guy.
In an era when almost everyone wore coarse cloth, silk could be considered a luxury item.
Even the lord of a region may not have many silk clothes in his wardrobe. Even if he did, he would only wear them on important occasions and would protect them well on weekdays.
But look at this pastor again, he is just like wearing ordinary coarse cloth, and he wears it to clean the house. For the people in this world, it is no exaggeration to say that it is a waste of resources.
However, these are not important to Valon. What Valon really cares about is this guy's attitude towards the God of Light and whether it is possible to convert him into a believer of the Holy Lord.
If the priest could be converted, it would be easier for Valon to change the town's faith.
As for how to make a staunch believer change his faith, it is not complicated in Valon's opinion.
The reasons why a person chooses to believe in God are nothing more than for those reasons: powerful strength, endless wealth, or power, or something else.
However, no matter which one it was, Valon felt that he could fully satisfy it with his own strength.
