Chapter 12 (2/2)
“Is it that obvious?” Liang Li Dong asks cheerfully.
Old Village Head ate up the noodles and drank all the soup. It is unexpected that the old him when comes to eating, is actually faster than the young Kyle: “Priest Beta, share with us the good news.”
Liang Li dong considers for a while and says: “It’s indeed something good, I received G.o.ddess’ oracle last night……”
Old Village Head looks at him in surprise.
While Kyle excitedly jumps around: “G.o.ddess is giving Lord money again?”
After what happened yesterday, Kyle has already linked G.o.ddess Waukeen’s oracle with windfall.
Liang Li Dong shakes his hand and says: “How can there be money to give away every day, if there is an oracle to pick up money every day, the world will already be filled with G.o.ddess’ believers……It’s like this, G.o.ddess instructs that a small temple can be built here to spread her ideals and her blessings.”
“For real?” The old Village Head stands up with a swoosh.
It is no surprise that he is so excited. In this world, there are too many disasters that can take away people’s frail lives, beasts, hunger, war and illness. Among all, illness is the thing that ‘kills’ the most easily. Even if it is a Cla.s.s-er, if afflicted with illness and not treated properly, they will die as easily, not to mention ordinary people with even weaker const.i.tution. Last year, there was 8 newborn babies but only 3 survived, the other 5 all died from fever or other illness.
However, if there is a temple, things will be different. A standard temple with a priest presiding over will produce a weak exorcist barrier. Its effective range is normally 1 or 2 km, although it does not heals illness effectively, it can instead slightly increase ordinary humans’ body c.o.o.nst.i.tution and make ordinary people less susceptible to illness. Furthermore, if there is priest that knows Cure Illness in the temple, there will be 1 more a.s.surance on lives.
This is what Liang Li Dong decided after thinking about it after he read the letter last night. Divine n.o.ble is cla.s.sified as Warlock, and indeed cannot learn other magic but divine spell are different. Warlock that agrees with G.o.d’s ideals, as long as they are devout enough, they can borrow G.o.d’s power to cast divine spell. This is not cla.s.sified as ‘learnt’, and is just borrowing temporarily. This is a similar situation as using magic scrolls. It is just that magic scrolls are gone after usage while as long as Mind Power is enough, divine spell can be used repeatedly.
Liang Li Dong wants to obtain a divine spell or two from G.o.ddess Waukeen to increase his strength. Most importantly, if he can become a temple’s priest, presiding over the daily matters of the temple can give character EXP. Although the EXP is incomparable to fighting outside, it is safer and is easier to acc.u.mulate contacts.
In ＜f.l.a.n.g.e Continent＞, most daily activities produce EXP, for example, fighting, travelling, teaching students and partic.i.p.ating in work. And presiding over temple’s various rituals is a kind of ‘work’.
Liang Li Dong knows the reason for old Village Head’s joy, he nods seriously: “It’s real, I’m not lying to you.”
Old Village Head takes a deep breath: “Requires how big of a temple.”
“The main hall occupying around 200m² will do.” Liang Li Dong thinks for a while and says: “Additionally, the main hall must be built with stone, this is the most important.”
Old Village Head sits down and frowns: “This is a bit difficult, the amount of work is large, if it is a wooden temple, we can help Lord build it for free but this stone temple is a bit difficult.”
Stone buildings are not like wooden buildings. Stone is heavy, uses a lot of stamina and stone has to be shaped. Building a 200m² stone building and a temple at that must have enough strong labourers and all the manpower in the villager added may not be enough to build a qualified temple in a year.
However, Liang Li Dong says: “I know your difficulties. Actually, old Village Head can get people from Seri Village to help out.”
“The temple is built here and not at their village. They probably wouldn’t want to.” Old Village Head shakes his head.
“You can tell them, all that partic.i.p.ated with building the temple can choose a child in their family to learn Holevin words from me.” Liang Li Dong says slowly: “You all must finish the construction in 6 months. In this 6 months, I will teach the children 3 Holevin words every day, whether they learnt it or not is their matter. If they managed to learn it all, that is at least 540 words. This amount of words should be enough for them to read common Holevin books.”
Old Village Head stuns for a bit and mumbles: “This condition is way too generous.”
Looking at the sight of Old Village Head, Liang Li Dong knows his suggestion must be accepted by him. He heaves a sigh of relief in his heart. The first step of becoming strong has a good start already. Persian Cat and Xiao-bai want him to live a good life and not search for them and watch them go fight with the enemy, wait until the matter is over before coming out…… If he really listened to them, hiding in safety like a rabbit, watching his women being bullied, is he still a man?
Actually saying this kind of words, if those 2 women is standing in front of him, he will definitely scold them properly.
