The Game of Demon Hunter
Chapter 30 The Demon Hunter's Sponsor
At the same time, the Temple of Campas.
The demon hunter Gang Ze, who had just been tricked by his disciple, was sitting in a tight seat with the priest Li Cha who presided over the temple.
As one of the few church organizations that got along well with the demon hunters, the priest of the God of War Campas won the respect of the demon hunters with his bravery and many times of cooperation on the front lines of the chaos-occupied area.
And the person in charge of the Temple of Campas in Antony Grand Port, Pastor Richard, once acted together with the demon hunter Gangze and successfully prevented a crisis of chaos on the border of the old road.
"My lord, the god of war, protects every warrior who dares to fight. The little guy you sent is fine, and he can fully recover after a while of rest." Priest Richard, who was a warrior, said to the witcher.
After thanking his old friend, the demon hunter Gangze bowed his head like a statue of the God of War, and at the same time put down a few gems of the elves, mostly as donations.
Then he said with regret: "Thank you very much for your help, old friend. But I am not here today for this matter. I think you should be aware that in the Black Forest outside the city, the gate leading to Chaos has been closed It’s opened, and this time I failed to prevent it from happening, and it won’t be long before the swarming chaos demons will spread all over the Black Forest, and the power of this city alone may not be able to hold on for too long.”
Pastor Richard patted his old friend on the shoulder: "My lord has issued an oracle, and a group of paladins are already on their way to help, but I don't know if it's too late. You shouldn't be blamed for this failure. The behavior of the Church of Dawn has been reported and recorded. All organizations that have signed the fire transmission agreement will send representatives to question the behavior of the Church of Dawn. However, this is not the church's sphere of influence after all. It has many connections with the New World. I think Nothing will come of it."
Demon hunter Gangze sighed: "The knights of the Lord of Dawn are still so proud, they don't know how to adapt, and their black and white world view is like a child. I will go to Kaer Morhen to give my opinion, Demon Hunter Never acting with them again is a nightmare."
The corner of Pastor Richard's mouth trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but the witcher interrupted him: "Richard, I need to meet the lord here. I brought the kindness from the elves. The lords formed an alliance to jointly resist the invasion of Chaos. But the nobles here rejected me, and I did not send any news to the lords here."
Pastor Richard smiled awkwardly: "The situation here is a bit special. The sole heir of the Anthony family is underage, so Mr. Antoine, the steward of the Anthony family, is currently managing the city on his behalf. Attitude, our relationship with the nobles in the city is not very harmonious, and even this small temple was built after Antoine acted as the lord of the city. I think you can talk to him."
The witcher frowned: "My feeling tells me that you are hiding something. My hearing hears the perfunctory in your tone, old friend Richard! Steward? When can a steward replace the lord to talk to other forces? It’s a matter of forming an alliance! Because of the local lord’s attitude towards the church, are you on the side of the apostate who wants to oust the lord?”
The earliest members of the witcher organization were selected illegitimate sons of nobles with outstanding physical fitness. Later, because of the high death rate in the trial, they gradually accepted new members from all walks of life. Regardless of their noble background, they became demon hunters After all, it has nothing to do with the previous life.
But it is undeniable that the external funding of the witcher mainly comes from the aristocratic forces in the old and new continents. After all, unlike the major churches that have donations from believers, the mage organization monopolizes the production of magic items, and there is no shortage of money at all. The few fighter organizations that can compete with these organizations rely entirely on the huge annual sponsorship fees.
These aristocrats have provided funds to the witcher organization, and it has not been interrupted for hundreds of years, so that the witcher organization can develop and grow despite such a high death rate. At the same time, they promised the demon hunters that they could do things conveniently on their own land, so that the demon hunters could concentrate on their work, expel chaos, and maintain the human living environment.
And the nobles pay so much at all costs, the only request is that the demon hunters need to protect the inheritance of the noble blood. Because of the power system in this world, even the humblest slave has the opportunity to become an extraordinary person with power far beyond ordinary people. However, the nobles cannot guarantee that each generation of their descendants can be as brave and good at fighting as their ancestors.
No noble lord hopes that the foundation he has worked so hard to be taken away by a strange extraordinary person when he is old. Demon hunters are the protectors hired by nobles to maintain their legitimacy.
The Witcher Council made a promise back then that every Witcher traveling abroad, if they received help from the local lord, would protect the lives of the nobles, intervene in the incident as a mediator, and conduct public evidence collection. If the local nobles were indeed blackmailed and threatened by the Extraordinary, the witcher would use force to protect the property of the local lord. But if the opposite is true, the witcher will have a public trial of the nobles.
For hundreds of years, demon hunters have mostly abided by the laws enacted by nobles in their own lands. No matter how absurd these laws are, as long as they have nothing to do with chaos, demon hunters will not interfere without authorization. Of course, from time to time, there will be some witchers with a strong sense of justice, because the behavior of the local nobles is too much, and seeing injustice, they take lessons or kill them directly. happened before. In most cases, demon hunters will help local lords maintain order in the territory to prevent chaos and give chaos believers an opportunity.
Over time, it gradually formed that the nobles paid enough protection fees every year to ensure the normal work of the witchers. And the witchers will also maintain the authority of the local lord when they are not working.
This is why Antoine was afraid when he heard that a witcher had come to the city. As for Pastor Richard, because of the local lord's family's prejudice against the power of the church, the old Earl Anthony has been suppressing the power of the church. In contrast, Antoine's butler, apart from being greedy for money and lust, for his own career, associating with church forces is his only choice.
Therefore, the church pretended to be ignorant of the ongoing power seizure in the city, and planned to sit back and watch the local lord's family decline and support a lord who was pro-church.
