Crown of Chaos
Chapter 47, Three people form an army
PS: This chapter is said to be open in a few days, but everyone is welcome to speak up. I can see it in the background, otherwise it will be too uncomfortable to have no communication.
The strong summer wind passed through the hall of Our Lady of Silver Church, and the oak trees at the door whistled loudly. The dazzling bright light forced passers-by to squint their eyes, and the hot air numbed people's sense of taste and smell, melting all perceptions into themselves. In the waves of heat falling from the sky and rising from the earth.
So hot!
As a result, the number of pedestrians in the upper city decreased significantly, especially the big nobles living here, who all went to the countryside to escape the summer heat.
The Church of Our Lady of Silver, which is located in a remote location in the upper city, was rebuilt from a former aristocratic church. The believers of Su Lun have never been the most popular, richest, and most influential. They cannot be like the lucky lady Taimo. Radu built a huge temple in Susar that was as grand as a palace, using gold, platinum, and diamonds to carve statues of gods, but Sullun's followers still had a considerable degree of influence.
The most typical example is the Silver Virgin Shrine. Its predecessor was donated by the wife of a great nobleman after her husband's death. She directly donated the entire guild hall to the great Suellen.
For this reason, her son also filed a lawsuit with her to deny her property ownership. Both parties appealed to the Kingdom Court. Finally, Tyr, the God of Justice, personally ruled that the donation was valid.
The ruling was established, and the mother and son also severed the parent-child relationship, and she eventually died alone in the temple.
Aaron thought that this incident could very well illustrate the logic of the Chaotic Good Funny People - doing what they think is right, without any concept of rules and order, but acting according to what they think in their hearts.
So what is the difference between chaotic good and chaotic neutral?
The biggest difference is that people in the chaotic good camp do not have the concept of lawfulness, but they have a basic sense of morality and good and evil. They know what is moral and what is against morality.
Chaotic neutrals are different, they have no moral concepts.
It has to be said that the do-gooder camp often ends up doing things with good intentions but doing bad things. They feel that doing so is good, correct and moral, but the final outcome is not so good, at least for some people.
For example, there is a famine in a city. There is some food in the warehouse of a big businessman in the city, so a few warriors from the good camp lead people to open the warehouse and release the food from the big businessman to the hungry people for free, thus alleviating the famine. , the warriors realized they had done good deeds and left without leaving their names. Not only did the big businessmen not receive any compensation, they also went bankrupt.
The starting point of this matter was good, and the ending was good, but the process was not so good, because no matter what, the private property of big businessmen should be protected by law, and no one has the right to forcibly deprive others of their property.
Even the regent's forced food expropriation was done through negotiation + coercion and inducement, and compensation would be given afterwards.
Therefore, the Harpers Association, as a well-known force representing "goodness" in the country, is often disliked by people. Some countries even legislate to ban Harpers from entering the country. This is why.
Aaron remembered that in the online articles he had read in his previous life, most of the authors had great malice towards Hun Shan and also magnified and emphasized the negative impact in this regard.
So, why did Aaron decide to maintain extremely close contact with them even though he knew that the Sullun Church was dominated by the good camp?
The family belief and the Silver Virgin Mother Su Lun's great kindness to me are one reason, uh... Miss Pastor is the second reason.
But the biggest reason is that the chaotic good camp never interferes with other people's freedom. They will not tell you what to do in a "dad-like" manner, or ask you to do something in the name of "for your own good" to control you.
Moreover, as long as they think you are doing good and acting in line with universal moral values, they will not interfere in other people's affairs.
This is very important to Aaron.
Very important!
Many online article writers he saw liked to preach the power of lawful evil. That was because their protagonists were the ones who made and controlled the rules. They were at the top of the pyramid and had very few restrictions, while lawful evil could be the greatest. Let them use and play with the rules to the greatest extent, and implement their will to the greatest extent to obtain resources from below.
This is understandable. They can maximize their own interests by choosing lawful evil, and Aaron can also maximize their own interests by choosing to follow the chaotic and good goddess Suellen.
No one is nobler than anyone else.
The guards at the gate of the temple were old acquaintances with Aaron. As soon as they saw Aaron appear, the two guards wearing short-sleeved leather armor and legging shorts wiped the sweat from their foreheads and smiled at him: "Your Excellency Salian, You came a little late today, is there something wrong?"
"The time is never so perfect, just like the fair weather of the Silver Virgin." Aaron also smiled and said: "Today I have something to do and I have to go to the palace."
"That's it." The guard was a little disappointed, but still had a big smile on his face: "Please come in!"
Since returning to Sousal, Aaron has always been present at the Shrine of Our Lady of Silver in Sousal on Sundays.
Stepping into the gate of the temple, you are greeted by a cool breeze. A barrier composed of divine power blocks out the midsummer outside. The temperature inside the temple is humid and cool. There are many fish swimming happily in the sparkling pond. Many people crowded in the temple to chat, enjoy the cool air, laugh and joke.
Aaron thought to himself that this was just like some uncles and aunties in previous lives who liked to use the air conditioner in supermarkets and department stores.
There was no one in the entire temple who didn't know Aaron.
In addition to Aaron himself being a celebrity in Sousal, he is also a very rare male "toucher" of the Silver Madonna.
There were no more than 10 "touched persons" in Suellen in Cormyr, and only Aaron was a man.
"Is Eleanor here?" Aaron asked a priest.
The female pastor, who was about forty years old, showed an ambiguous expression when she heard what Aaron said. She pointed inside with her mouth: "It's in the green leafy courtyard, playing with the children."
In the green leafy courtyard, the unique sounds of children's laughter and laughter can be heard endlessly. Under a few dense and prosperous trees, the pastor lady is playing with a group of children. The oldest among the children is no more than seven years old. Each one calls "Sister Eleanor" .
Miss Pastor stayed happily with the children, letting them hold her hands, playing games and telling stories.
Aaron did not go up to disturb them, but watched silently.
Whenever he saw this scene, he didn't feel happy, but rather sad.
Those children... are not all human beings, not even all healthy. Some of them have congenital diseases, some are born with something missing, and some children are abandoned by their parents at the gate of the temple. They have never been I don’t know who my parents are.
It is true that diseases and disabilities can be cured through divine magic, but where can we find so many powerful priests? Divine magic is magic, and it is also a limited resource. If every patient should be healed, any church would go bankrupt.
Su Lun's teachings have always been to provide "help within our ability".
Maybe, I can... A certain thought came to Aaron's mind, and his eyes were in a trance.
The power of Nurgle within the body is still tightly sealed.
If one day, he can unlock the power of Nurgle, then the diseases and disabilities of these children will not disappear at all... He can also rely on the Church of Sullun to form a force of his own that is absolutely loyal.
Because to these children, Our Lady of Silver is their mother, and this temple is their home!
Miss Pastor stood in front of Aaron's eyes. She was not wearing a mask today. Her delicate appearance was extremely beautiful, with a long golden braid hanging down to her slender waist. She had a well-proportioned and slender figure, a round and soft little face, straight and She has a small nose, delicate eyebrows under golden bangs, charming pink lips full of moisture, and clear and beautiful sea-blue eyes with a touch of joy, accepting the kindness of the children.
She had no makeup on her face, only wearing a light pink short-sleeved shirt with a beautiful bow on the neckline. Her breasts that had begun to grow were slightly erect, and underneath was a plain white skirt. Her slender, white and tender legs had delicate skin. Shrouded in a layer of light and shadow, the feet are wearing the simplest pair of sandals, which are delicate and charming.
"Ah, brother Aaron is here!" A sharp-eyed child saw Aaron.
"Brother Aaron is here to see Sister Eleanor!" cried the little girl with braids and a bow but only one eye.
"Brother Aaron, did you bring something delicious?" A half-orc child saw the gift box in Aaron's hand.
"Sister Eleanor, brother Aaron is here!"
"Brother Aaron, come and play with us!" A child came up and tugged on Aaron's sleeve.
"Forget it, forget it." Aaron shook his head quickly. The young and handsome Viscount was particularly popular with children, but he actually didn't like children: "I have something to do with your sister Eleanor."
"I understand, brother Aaron wants to give sister Eleanor a gift!"
"It's a date, I'm going on a date with my sister!"
"Brother Aaron is going to make dolls with sister Eleanor!"
The children seemed to understand. They started to cheer and then dispersed.
"You!" Miss Pastor's face turned red. She wanted to catch the children, but the children had already dispersed, leaving her stomping on the spot, and then looked at Aaron with shameful and angry eyes.
If you don't give an explanation, you're dead!
"Hey, it's Eleanor I've never seen before!" Who knew that Aaron didn't follow common sense, and he suddenly lowered his head sadly: "Didn't we agree not to wear masks between each other?"
"?" Miss Pastor didn't understand for a moment.
"You are so nice to them and so pleasant, but you are so cruel to me and want to hit me at every turn!" Aaron seemed aggrieved.
"Aaron!!!" Eleanor blushed, and the pastor yelled in embarrassment: "Do you think you are a five-year-old like them?"
"Haha, I'm just kidding, my dear Eleanor, don't be angry." Aaron immediately put away his sadness and took the initiative to approach: "I have something to ask you."
"Who is your darling?" Miss Pastor looked away, not wanting to look at Aaron, but found that there were already many people pointing at them in the courtyard, and the children were piled behind the door and behind the pillars, smiling and whispering. , the face that had calmed down involuntarily began to turn red again: "Well... Anyway, come with me!"
Under everyone's gaze, one was proud and the other was embarrassed.
In a less crowded corner of the temple, Aaron handed over a shell: "This is for you."
"What is this..." Eleanor opened it curiously.
Inside the white shell is a deep red paste.
"Ah! This!" Miss Pastor exclaimed softly and immediately stopped the topic.
She knows what it is, it's lipstick!
Did he give himself lipstick?
"I chose this specially for you." Aaron's words seemed to be full of magic: "For this reason, I came later than usual."
"..." Eleanor held Aaron's gift in her little hand, her sea-blue eyes sparkling with bright light, she opened her little mouth, and wanted to speak several times but didn't know how to speak. But he kept holding the shell and didn't let go.
Aaron didn't give her a chance and immediately changed the topic to "business".
He told Eleanor what he had encountered, emphasizing that he wanted to deal with this group of orcs, and personally tortured him to find out the whereabouts of the warlock.
"So you... came to me?" Eleanor crossed her legs and looked directly at Aaron. Next to her was the gift from Aaron. She held the beautiful shell in her hands and her eyes were full of excitement. light.
"The first thing I thought of was you." Aaron said seriously.
Miss Pastor lowered her head and tightened her hand holding the shell a little harder.
"...It's not impossible to go with you..." Miss Pastor was more frank in this regard: "But is it enough for the two of us?"
"We need a teammate." Aaron also said frankly: "And we need a very reliable teammate who will not betray our own people. I can't go to the Adventurer's Guild to find it, nor can I find it among the recruits. Eleanor, Do you have any suitable candidates?"
"If there is another one..." Miss Priest thought: "I have a bard friend named Xia Duo, she is an elite bard..."
"No." Aaron shook his head violently: "You are a priest and I am a warlock. We no longer need a bard."
"A teammate is poisoned? Give him an incentive!
Are your teammates fighting the Minotaur in hand-to-hand combat? Use encouragement to make him strong!
Are your teammates ready to cast a spell? He needs motivation to stay focused!
Teammates are ready to open locks, read speeches, threaten and intimidate? Encourage him to do better!
A teammate has hooked up with a succubus and is about to enter the hotel? He needs your motivation to help him defeat the succubus!
Inspire, encourage, and encourage, and you will be the best bard! "
————Bard of the Realm Joke
As mentioned before, the bard profession is a bit of everything and proficient in nothing. The various buffs of the bard in the early stage are better than nothing, especially since Aaron and Eleanor both know the magic of divine guidance (the effect is the same as The motivation of the bard is about the same), the weakness of the bard is extremely poor in self-protection, weak in melee combat, and most of the spells are in the enchantment system.
Only master-level bards can begin to strengthen their abilities through in-depth exploration of different academies and further selection of magical mysteries. Later, bards who are proficient in singing, dancing, singing, and dancing gradually become powerful beings.
"We need a tank." Aaron said subconsciously.
"Water tank?" Eleanor didn't understand what Aaron meant.
"No, what I mean is that we need a teammate who can provide protection, strong melee combat, and also has enough experience in outdoor adventures." Aaron explained: "As for divine arts and magic, we have it."
"In this case...I have a candidate." Eleanor immediately thought of someone.
"who?"
"The Asha you met before, an elite female barbarian on the path of the soul of the ancestors!"
"Okay! It's her!"
