Chapter 317 (2/2)

Holy Cross Church.

As the dean and every alchemist of the furnace college boast, the furnace college in furnace town is the only two alchemist colleges in the empire that can smelt and forge secret silver. This rare and precious metal has been proved to have a good restraining effect on all kinds of mutations caused by void forces.

In that case, as a Holy Cross Church with orthodox ideas, how can it let this rare metal out of its own control?

More importantly, we should not let a large amount of secret silver fall into the hands of ordinary people, especially wizards - because of the neutralization characteristics of secret silver, this rare metal can also be used as the core of alchemy items, or used to compile runes and make magic wands, which is absolutely unacceptable to the church.

The first step is the absolute embargo against Mithril;

It is not difficult to do this. After all, the secret silver itself is very rare. The de saleon family also hopes to control it under the control of the royal family, at least not out of the imperial capital Palaven and East Saxony in large quantities; Therefore, even if the Wizards of eboden are willing to offer a sky high price, they can still get very little secret silver.

But this alone is not enough. After all, the secret silver mine is in the hands of the dwarves, and the Church cannot persuade the Empire to fight a friendly ally for the secret silver, especially when surrounded by enemies on all sides; From the dwarves to the capital Palaven, they will certainly pass through the Principality of Bain in the South and will be robbed.

Therefore, the second step is to consecrate or ”aristocrat” the secret silver - only knights who get the blessing of the Holy Cross Church or want to make an oath of the Holy Cross can be ”qualified” to get a secret silver weapon;

In this way, the threshold for obtaining secret silver is raised. Considering that almost the aristocracy of the whole empire are believers of the Holy Cross, it is not difficult to do this. At the same time, it almost completely cuts off the possibility for wizards to obtain secret silver. After all, no one will believe the piety of a wizard.

However, even so, it can not be completely controlled, so we can only start from the root.

Yes, it's in Furnace Town, even in furnace College - the church here is built opposite the college, basically to monitor the every move of the alchemists here.

It is very dangerous to be identified as a false believer in the land with strong Holy Cross belief in East Saxony, especially for the Wizards here.

Not to mention the priests' attitude towards wizards and their greed - what is the face of lottel's grass-roots church? The priests led by Prince sakran will only intensify.

In the face of decades of exploitation by the Holy Cross Church, the ”means of resistance” of furnace college is to make false accounts.

Through the daily account, which only looked at the results but not the process, the melting furnace college successfully concealed the eyes of the local church. Without their awareness, all the raw silver mines that would have flowed into the hands of the church were intercepted and sealed in the warehouse.

Of course, no matter how much they hide, they can't hide from duanjieshan fortress, because the quantity of materials they get can't be fake; So the seemingly rough but careful Dean chose to cooperate with Conrad, deceived the church and provided the crown prince with a large amount of ”black gold” that would not be traced.

As a ”reward”, Connaught also brought more orders to melting pot town - this is not very difficult. After all, there are two legions stationed in duanjieshan fortress. Even the tasks of patrol and regular search will require a lot of materials and logistics.

Of course, there is an easier way, that is, all these materials were ”accidentally” lost.

According to the president of the melting furnace college, he used the news of the northern invasion to deliver two batches of materials to the front and back of the duanjieshan fortress, and finally ”unfortunately disappeared”. Considering that the North led by Prince saklan is now in chaos, such materials are robbed from time to time.

But in fact, those weapons or ordnance have never left the warehouse in melting pot town from the beginning. As long as they are properly turned around, they can become hot gold at any time.

This is the dean's final confession, which describes in detail the course of his crime. In addition, the account books and archives are also cooked by him. Anyone who sees this confession will not hesitate to believe that he is the culprit.

And everything about Connaught and the Holy Cross has been erased
