Struggle in the Steam Age

In this world of unearthly power, money still holds its own. But the power of all kinds of extraordinary representatives is far more powerful than the power of money.

Therefore, after realizing Lawrence's great help to the island as an outsider, the lords on the island quickly adopted some reward plans for Lawrence.

These reward plans are divided into many aspects. In addition to the financial green light, as another part of the reward for Lawrence's willingness to help them plan, the lords of the northern islands headed by Green Island also offered another reward that he could not refuse. :

These lords passed a decree in the Lords Council. If you agree to complete the ascension ceremony in Nora in the future, the clergy who belong to the little dolls can come to the island to preach and enjoy the treatment second only to the state religion.

Obviously, as Nora continued to advance the progress of the ascension ceremony, the magical fluctuations I generated during those rituals naturally became larger and larger, to the point where it was impossible to cover up.

In this case, some previously confidential content for security considerations can be gradually decrypted, and at the same time, through decryption, a solid foundation for the next step in the future can be laid.

For example, when it can be confirmed that Nora is likely to pass the ascension ceremony, disclosing Nora's existence can make sufficient preparations for the spread of belief in the future.

Of course, those who can do this are the existences like the little puppet Nora who have been recognized by the gods.

If it is those who are not accepted, let alone spread it in advance, it may take all the energy of those people just to be busy concealing it.

As time passed day by day, Lawrence also felt the great changes in the little puppet through the connection of the soul. Finally, when he and Nora were separated for nearly two months, the little puppet finally became a god in the ascension ceremony. The most important step has been taken.

It was a Tuesday afternoon, and Lawrence was working through the series of documents related to financial activities.

When he was writing his views on the reserve ratio at the bottom of a document, he suddenly felt his heart beating violently as if being hammered by a heavy hammer, and then his whole body became stiff as if he had been petrified for a moment. sat there.

"Lawrence, what's wrong with you?" Just when Lawrence was affected by the little puppet and his body changed drastically, Safiel, who was sitting on a desk next to him, immediately noticed his situation and asked nervously.

"It's nothing." After taking a deep breath, Lawrence quickly confirmed his situation. "Nora has reached the last step of her ritual, and I may have to help him during this time."

Lawrence whispered to Safir with all his strength. "Now help me lie down on the bed in the back room. This process may take a day or two."

"Understood." Because Lawrence had told Safir about this before, she also had some preparations for it. Soon, Safiel carried Lawrence into the bedroom of the room in the posture of a princess and put him on the bed.

When everything was ready, Lawrence concentrated all his energy on the connection between himself and the little doll.

For a split second, Lawrence felt himself traveling a great distance and projecting his consciousness onto the little doll.

At this time, over the blue mountain of New Sauer Island, a huge group of non-attribute magic power slowly gathered, and at the same time began to rotate with the blue mountain as the core.

As these magic powers gathered more and more, the non-attribute magic power that should have no color or specific shape began to radiate colorful brilliance, which looked like substance from a distance.

Soon, the vortex changed from the size of a basketball court to a behemoth with a radius of more than 100 meters, and the speed of rotation became faster and faster.

At the same time, a low-pitched roar sounded faintly from the vortex of magic power, which sounded like thunder.

"Is your ascension ceremony going to cross the catastrophe?" Looking at the powerful magic vortex in the sky, Lawrence, who had just come out, subconsciously expressed his opinion. "Why did the thunder come here?"

"Actually, it's almost the same as Dujie." Safiel felt Lawrence's appearance the first time he reconnected, and after hearing his complaint, the little puppet also said jokingly.

"To be honest, isn't this ceremony the ascension? Since it is ascension, crossing the catastrophe is naturally inevitable." Nora is in a very good condition now, and she even has enough energy to joke with Lawrence.

Of course, this is also a joke that only Lawrence himself and Nora understand.

However, the accumulation of this ability and energy still produces a huge sense of coercion. So much so that those who had been ordered to retreat to the depths of the blue mountain grass pad before were all agitated, and it took a long time for the herdsmen present to calm down.

Compared with the small riots among the herdsmen who had received orders in advance and made preparations for the civilized race, the real panic was the goblins who occupied the other part of the Blue Mountain Meadow.

Under the influence of this kind of strong pressure, those goblins who were not very courageous in the first place panicked, and even conflicts broke out among their own kind.

"The next step is the last step. I need your strength." Although he couldn't see what was going on outside, the puppet could easily feel that he was extremely close to a certain point.

So after reminding Lawrence, Nora changed her relaxed attitude and floated up from the ground, then suspended in the center of this pocket cave less than two meters high. In an instant, a vast force slowed down. Slowly gathered towards her.

"It's finally started." Lawrence murmured softly, and then passed his own powers to the little doll along the soul connection.

A few seconds later, three shadows appeared behind the little puppet. The largest one is the shadow of a giant tree that looks only two or three meters high, but gives people the feeling of reaching the sky.

The other two shadows are a phantom of a golden and green city at the root of the giant tree and a phantom of Bai Ze emitting a holy white light.

I saw a huge and vast energy based on Nora's core, rapidly condensing in a mysterious way. At the same time, with the help of the little puppet's perception, Lawrence also heard the sound of energy and weapons colliding from outside the mountain.

As everyone had guessed before, there would always be enemies coming to make trouble when anyone ascended to the gods, even if Nora, who successfully held the ascension ceremony in a very short period of time, did not have many conflicts with enemies.

Fortunately, this time Nora and the others are not fighting alone. In the past two months, a large number of church members belonging to the friendly side have mobilized their strength to escort

. Therefore, Lawrence could feel through the perception of the little puppet that all the enemies who came to attack are now outside the blue mountain, and no one can break through the defense line built by those powerful friendly forces.

This good news made Lawrence feel a little more relaxed, and then he began to focus all his attention on the little doll. As time goes by, the strength of those surrounding the dolls increases gradually, until it reaches a threshold that makes everyone who comes close to this area feel a sense of danger.

Just when Lawrence began to worry about whether this mass of energy would explode violently and shatter the entire mountain, the whole mass of energy immediately began to vibrate in a strange rhythm, and made some kind of mysterious buzzing sound.

But at this moment, a large amount of strange energy began to slowly generate from the void, and then rushed towards the little puppet in the center of the cave.

Although it is not clear what kind of power these energies contain, Lawrence can clearly feel that these energies contain extremely obvious malice and ominousness.
