Mountain and Forest Kingdom

The City of Light, the headquarters of the Holy Light Church, the Mountain of Holy Light, Everdulan.

Cardinal Tabor stood in the tall and quiet sacred hall. The middle of the palace was empty and surrounded by many high-altitude balconies connected to the mountain. Standing on the half-empty building like a balcony were several saints of the Holy Light Church. By.

The saint is the clergy second only to the pope, and is also the senior priest controlled by the pope of this generation. His status is higher than that of outside bishops.

Tabur raised his head to accept the gazes of several saints. Sitting on the front throne tilted fifty meters away was the 16th Pope of the Holy Light Church.

"The wizards in Northrim have been cleared out. I searched the brains of those barbarians. Lawrence Crowfeather of the Northern Star Church is not a wizard, but a mortal disguised as a wizard."

Tarble's ability is not lightning, lightning is the ability of another wizard under his command.

One of his abilities is to look into the past, and can see into the minds of animals and humans what they see in the past.

In addition to memory exploration, Tarbor also has the ability to modify memories.

These powerful abilities have little effect when dealing with the Barbarian Legion.

The Pope did not look at Tabur. This powerful being wrapped in bronze armor rarely expressed his opinions on external affairs.

Most of the time, it was the saints in the surrounding circular pavilions who handled and discussed matters.

"Since he is a mortal, Tabur, why didn't you kill the Crowfeather Prophet?"

A majestic voice came down from mid-air. These saints of different shapes, all disguised in cloaks and lights, rebuked Tabur at this time.

Tabur stood calmly.

"He himself has no witchcraft, and the witches around him are also very weak, but he has thousands of barbarian warriors under his command. These warriors are not afraid of death and don't know how to escape. Three of our wizards have died there!"

"Mortal life is short. That little liar is no threat to us. What we should do now is not pay attention to those barbarians!"

"If those wild wizards hadn't killed Luofen III, we wouldn't have to waste time dealing with these things!"

Tabur looked at the saints in mid-air, "If you want revenge, send someone there yourself!"

The surrounding saints actually didn't want to deal with the barbarians in the north.

The important thing now is to gather the power of this land, study and break the limits of life and death, and complete the transformation from a mortal body to a god's body.

Another saint said: "The lifespan of barbarians is short. A new group will be replaced every thirty or forty years. When this generation goes away, they will disperse again."

"The ancient treasures from the forest wizard have been brought back, and now Sibanda is studying the witchcraft energy inside."

"Tabur, have you finished what I asked you to do?"

Tabur lowered his head, "It's done. A total of sixty intact dark elf bodies, as well as three living elves and a living giant turtle that is at least five hundred years old have been collected."

The Church of the Holy Light quickly ignored the barbarians of the north.

Those barbarians could not reach the south, nor could they conquer the southern walls and mountains.

The Holy Light Church is much stronger than it appears, especially since this generation has gathered a large number of powerful people, and its strength is far greater than before.

The barbarians in the north were nothing in front of the Holy Light Church, but after learning that Lawrence Crowfeather was not a wizard, but a liar, they lost interest.

If you were not a wizard, you would not have collected various witchcraft props, and you would not have left any test notes or witchcraft materials.

A group of incompetent witches cannot make any waves at all. These people will be left to the people below to deal with it, while the higher-ups are busy with their own research and plans.

Worldly wars and disasters, the rise and fall of dynasties, have no feeling at all in the eyes of these extraordinary beings.

***

Earl Sidel successfully became the duke and occupied the city of Trantarhoof.

Lawrence noticed something strange, quickly told the things here, and then stayed away from this place again just like he had left this city.

On the way back, Sophia noticed a change in Lawrence.

"Master, are you worried that Sidel has occupied a good place, gained the allegiance of the Wild Boar Legion and the nobles in the city, and then turned against us?"

Sofia felt that this was why she had to leave quickly.

Lawrence looked solemnly and looked at the flat road ahead. It was no longer the same as before. There were many more elite soldiers around him to protect him.

"That's not the reason. I found that this time we went too smoothly, and we captured Tran Big Hoof City with almost no effort."

Sofia didn't understand what Lawrence was thinking about, "Isn't this a good thing?"

"Not really." Lawrence turned his head and looked at the team behind him, followed by deer cavalry and a few wild boar riders.

Soon Lawrence looked at the road ahead and continued: "This time we surrendered some people, and Si Deer also accepted a group of people to be loyal, but there is almost no high-end combat power."

Sofia thought all this was normal, and many people died in the battle between the two sides.

"I think the fight was very hard. It's been almost a month since we came out." Sophia now wants to go back quickly.

Lawrence recalled the fighting during this period, which was mainly about encroaching forward step by step, gathering a large number of people, and relocating the territorial villages outside Pig Trotter City one by one.

Bring the population back and resettle it to prevent these people from continuing to serve the enemy.

During the war, he also fought many times with the nobles of Pig Trotter City, from summer to autumn.

The problem is that there are no powerful obstacles, such as wizards or powerful berserkers.

"Maybe you are right. It is indeed because we are strong enough now that it goes so smoothly."

After following Sophia's thoughts and telling her what she thought, Lawrence said calmly: "I think the main reason is that some of the soldiers from Telangtaho City were separated."

Sophia asked curiously: "Where to separate? Those surrenderers have already killed Duke Redela. The pig Duke didn't escape. It doesn't matter if the others escape, right?"

"It's different." Lawrence rode the black unicorn slowly on the country road. He felt very good after looking at the wheat that was ready to be harvested nearby. "I think the southerners have also noticed the strength of our side."

"They must think it's the barbarians who are more powerful, not me."

Lawrence's mood became even better, "They will think that they are all barbarians. As long as they get some barbarians, they can do what I do."

"Especially the church people who have fought with us, and some nobles, they must think that as long as they get the barbarian soldiers from the Luofen Kingdom, they will have the same strength as our barbarians."

"Let the Sidel people help us fight for a while in the middle. Now the south is not in a hurry to attack us. They want to obtain the [Barbarian] unit."

Most of the generals of the Luofen Kingdom, as well as many capable warriors, went to the Northrim Kingdom.

The church mainly targets wizards, not the barbarian race.

From the initial acceptance of the joining of Luofen III to the sending of three priests to help Pig Trotter City fight naval battles, these details show that the church has a high ability to accept barbarians.

Especially after they demonstrated the powerful offensive capabilities of the barbarians, the wizards who lacked protection were actually very willing to obtain such a group of subordinates who could fight and defend.

In short, it was a united front value. Although sixty-two barbarians died in the battle, it caused a lot of pressure on the church and recognized its strength from the bottom of my heart!

Lawrence felt that this should be the case. Now that the troops of the Luofen Kingdom have been transferred to the south, this is why Telantho City looks so weak.

The population of this era is still too small to fight a particularly fierce war.

There should be a long period of peace ahead.

Just make gunpowder and artillery slowly. The next thing you need to do is to develop the existing land and study witchcraft.

In terms of science and technology, it is enough to point out explosives and artillery. The rest cannot develop at all without enough population. Only when the population increases can the development of science and technology be promoted.

Nowadays, farming, breeding, processing of agricultural products and iron-making are a huge consumption. If the population is used to research and develop technology, there will not be enough manpower and material resources for development.

Compared to technology, Lawrence cares more about the witchcraft of this world.

Lawrence touched his chin, and there were some whiskers sprouting under his chin and nose.

I am twenty-one years old this year, but I still have no children.

Whether it was with ordinary women or with witches, I had done it many, many times, but I couldn't give birth to a child.

Lawrence didn't care much about having children, but he was more concerned about life expectancy now.

When I left Telandaho City and lived in seclusion in the Agama Mountains, I wanted to live quietly and didn't want to get involved in too many troubles.

Now 20,000 to 30,000 people can develop quietly, and the resources of this land are enough for them to enjoy for fifty or sixty years.

After you calm down, you should study the extraordinary power of this world.

Since there are long-lived races like elves and wizards, is there any extraordinary power that can give me a long lifespan?

There is no witchcraft on earth, only technology can be developed.

Since there are mysterious powers in this fantasy world, it would be a pity not to understand them.

For the sake of eternal youth, Lawrence decided to contact the elves of the Green Forest Kingdom first, and at the same time develop technology to gain more power of witches. (End of chapter)
