Almighty Alchemist - v5 Chapter 53
Returning from the Frank Empire, it is already the sixth day of the battle of Yinyuefeng.
Xiuyi doesn’t have much time to wait.
He decided to go immediately to Mount Grabis and the Holy Spirit Church to showdown.
If the Pope doesn’t know the big deal, then he doesn’t mind dealing with it in the same way.
But before that, Xiuyi needs to make some adequate preparations for himself.
The Gribbis Mountains are located at the southernmost tip of the northern continent, if its owner is a small border country-Bain.
Bain was once the most prosperous place in the northern continent. The former Bain empire had a vast territory and almost covered the entire northern continent. As a result, the Church of the Holy Spirit has become the first religion in the northern continent. Their relationship with the Bain Empire is similar to the relationship between the Scourge Church and the Sierra Empire on the southern continent.
Bain’s decline has its inevitable historical trend, as well as artificial factors.
At the height of the Bain Empire, they encountered the eldest legion of Electra, the biggest challenge ever.
It was a life-and-death battle that affected the entire continent. Headed by the Bain Empire, all the nations of the northern continent joined forces to fight against Electra, but with few successes. Electra’s army swept across the continent, defeating the once prominent Bain Empire, until Electra gathered his army that he thought was enough to travel to the abyss. At this time, the once great empire had been shattered.
Shortly after that, the former old landlord died of a sudden injury, and his three heirs fought to fight for imperial power. After the external troubles and the internal troubles, the Bain empire finally broke down completely, and some small countries took advantage of the situation to start the era of melee.
To this day, the northern continent has not yet formed a complete unified situation, but the Bain empire has survived miraculously to this day.
The reason for this is entirely dependent on the blessing of the Holy Spirit Church.
Speaking of this problem, the Church of the Holy Spirit actually has a lot of suffering.
In the past, the relationship between the Church of the Holy Spirit and Bain’s empire was cold. However, with the weakening of the Bain Empire and the rise of some small countries, the Church of the Holy Spirit is facing a choice. In order to gain the support of the church, some small countries have assured the Holy Spirit Church that no matter who owns this land in the future, the state religion in this country will only be the Holy Spirit Church. At the same time promise all kinds of rich offerings.
Greed made the eyes short-sighted, and the Church of the Holy Spirit watched Bain’s land being divided up until the Allied Forces hit the Grabis Mountains, and the Church of the Holy Spirit finally panicked. At last they called for an armistice and, at the last minute, saved the last bit of land in the Bain Empire.
According to the teachings of the Holy Spirit, each Holy Spirit worships the Holy Land of Sarahan at least once in his life.
This was originally a sign of the advancement and retreat of the Church of the Holy Spirit and the Bain Empire. But for this reason, it became a noose to restrain the development of the church. The Church of the Holy Spirit must therefore set up its headquarters in Salahan for life, and must not leave the Holy Land, which has also weakened their influence on other countries.
For this reason, in the view of the Church of the Holy Spirit, it is not a good thing for any country outside the Grabis to rule, unless the Bain Empire re-emerges.
Today, Bain can only be called a kingdom. Judging from the size of the country, it is not too much to call the Principality. Although in terms of land area and number of soldiers, they are far inferior to the three empires, and their quality is not as good as those in the West, etc., fortunately, they still have a sacred place.
On the surface, Bain Kingdom is still the country most favored by the gods. On the surface, people still respectfully call Sarahan a holy place.
But no one except Bain himself likes to be intoxicated in the glory of glory and walk out of this mountain area. No one will take Bain as one thing.
Xiu came to Sarahan in this situation.
Taking a lap in the sky, Xiu Yi folded her wings and slowly landed in an unmanned forest area.
It’s about twenty miles away from Sarahan.
Xiu intends to walk over from here, and by the way look at Bain’s customs.
He is not in a hurry to meet the Pope, and currently he has enough time to learn more about it.
Compared to the prosperous Lance Empire, Frank Empire and other places, the lives of Bain people seem much simpler.
They seem to admire a simple and close to natural lifestyle. Simple wooden fences, low-rise double-storey villas, everyone has a small garden in front of their houses, planted with various colorful flowers. Some are even pretty good alchemy materials.
The Bain’s carriage was actually a ox cart. They used a stout ox with four horns as their main motive. This cow has great strength but travels slowly. Analyzed from this aspect, most of the Bain people live a leisurely life, and there are few urgent things that need to be hurried.
As a matter of fact, the Bain people who have always been self-proclaimed as the remnants of the heavens still have their own pride in speaking and acting.
They call the Lances an insurmountable upstart and think that the Franks are all self-righteous bastards. As for the Georgia Empire, it is not much better. They are a group of true adulterers, always good at getting things done. As for the Xido, they were rebuked by them as “uncivilized barbarians, humanoid beasts.”
In the eyes of the three empires, these Baines are a group of arrogants who are lingering under the wings of the Church of the Holy Spirit.
But no matter what the three imperial people think of the Bain people, there is at least one special advantage here: they have almost retained most of the traditional etiquette, which is one of the few things that they can get out of now. I believe Baron Harden will like Here. Oh, by the way, he is now the count.
In the subconscious, Xiu still likes to call this gentleman a little barbarous, except for the etiquette-less gentleman. Maybe the memories of his childhood that he brought will be even better.
An hour later, Xiuyi finally crossed the long mountain road and entered Salahan.
Looking around, the most, most splendid and tallest buildings here are almost all the churches of the Church of the Holy Spirit.
In the most glorious era of the Bain Empire, hundreds of thousands of foreign believers came to worship in the Holy Land every day, which forced the empire to repeatedly expand churches to accommodate believers. Nowadays, most of them have become ornamental buildings, and still attract a large number of tourists every year, of which believers and tourists account for almost half.
Salahan is the most famous tourist city in the northern continent.
“Hey, sir, do you need a tour guide?” A little boy rushed over and bowed to Xiuyi.
He has big beautiful eyes.
“Tourist guide?”
“Yes.”
“You know I’m a foreigner?” Sarahan was a city, not a village. If the boy said he was convinced that he was a foreigner because he hadn’t seen him, Xiuyi would not believe it.
“I don’t only know that you came in from a foreign country, but also that you are not a believer.” The boy was very proud.
“Tell me how did you know?” Xiuyi was curious.
“If you plan to hire me, I’ll tell you.”
“how much is it?”
“It depends on what you want to do. If it’s tourism, twenty-five Silver Witts. If you need special services, you need to add money.”
“What kind of special service?”
“Like a girl, there are good girls from all over the world. They are young, beautiful, and very enthusiastic.” The boy blinked.
“I don’t need a girl, is there any other service?”
“It will be difficult, depending on what special requirements you have. As long as you can tell, please believe that Little Bill can do it for you. Of course, the key is the price.” The little boy Bill rubbed his fingers.
Xiu threw out a Kimvit: “Then I hired you, three days, this is the deposit. If you do well, you will get three more.”
“Oh! You’re so generous!” The little boy shouted, and he took a look at King Witt in the sun and determined that it was real money and carefully stored it. Then he said to Xiu, “So what do you need now?”
“Take me to find a hotel to rest, and then I need to ask you some questions. By the way, answer me first. How do you know that I came from a foreign country and that the tourist is not a believer?”
“Because every one of Sarah’s people is a believer in the gods, and as long as he is a believer, he will not know the image of Emeris. No believer dares to stand in front of the Imaris and not worship him. “The boy answered quickly,” It’s a simple way to identify. “
Xiu Yileng realized that he was standing in front of a huge idol. Some believers will continue on the road after worshiping the statue before passing it. Xiuyi just looked at the surrounding landscape and didn’t pay attention to this issue.
The little boy looked smart and had a strong ability to capture business opportunities. When he saw that Xiuyi was not a believer, he immediately guessed that it might be a tourist, especially Xiuyi was well-dressed, and obviously he was not the owner of money, so he immediately recommended it.
Now hearing the little boy say that, Xiu Yi suddenly realized that he had made a big mistake.
Feelings have not kept the Church of the Holy Spirit in his heart, so far he doesn’t even know what **** this church worships and what doctrine they have. At least what this Umaris looks like, why everyone should worship it, Xiuyi is completely unclear.
“So you are also a believer in the Church of the Holy Spirit?” Xiu asked casually.
“Of course, Sarah is here, the Holy Land designated by the Holy Saint!” The boy cried.
He beckoned to Xiuyi: “Come on, I know there is a hotel, it’s cheap, it’s comfortable, and the food is very delicious.”
Xiu followed.
—It’s late.
I know there have been few updates recently, and everyone has questions.
Let me be honest with you, it is time to explain in the world.
The weather hasn’t been bad for the past two days, my condition is actually very good, and I write a lot. But unfortunately, this book is not written, it is a new book.
As early as Electra appeared, some friends said whether the all-around is about to end, and a series of puzzles have been announced.
I never answered.
Now I make a formal answer: yes, it’s almost over.
At present, there are still some mysteries that have not given an answer, and some incidents that have not been fully explained, but at most ten days, all the stories will be finished.
Some people may wonder why there is no abyss story.
My answer is: From the beginning, I didn’t plan to write about the abyss. The abyss is only a medium, and the story is still on the surface.
If I wanted to write this book indefinitely, I could write a follow-up war.
But I didn’t want to do that.
This is mainly because I was the first to write fantasy, and I lacked experience in many aspects. To me, this is a creation, but more of it is learning.
If I were to write another fantasy, I’m sure that Xiuyi’s story would be very different from what it is now.
In fact, when many friends said that only the first one was good-looking, I did not deny that there was indeed a problem with the book later.
This is related to experience and also to the inadequate preparations at that time.
For this reason, I don’t think it is necessary to write a new chapter of the abyss war, just take out the part of the plot I prepared in advance.
In fact, as far as my current achievements are concerned, this is very bad for me. After all, this book is doing well.
But I don’t want to perfuse readers with stories that I think can’t be better.
I wouldn’t squeeze a book because it sells well, and squeeze its residual value.
Honestly, I’m not satisfied with Almighty, or only the first half of it.
So I don’t want to continue the dissatisfaction.
Of course, this does not mean that I want to be bad, I need eunuch.
It just means that I ended it at the end, it was not a long delay, and nothing more.
At this point, how can you use a whole book to prepare for the end?
So the final story is about to come. I will seriously and work hard to write it well, without perfunctory or shirk.
At the same time, I have been preparing for the new book for two months. I believe that I will not make the same mistake again.
That’s all for now.
Well … Anyway, there are still a dozen days left. !! ~!
