Chapter 319
The main body of this sacred building is composed of more than a dozen white spires. The main hall that pierces the sky is like a heavy rifle. On the tip of the rifle is a giant bronze bell, which sways and roars, as majestic as thunder.
I didn’t feel much shock when I was studying in a church school.
But now, the church school has become a majestic shadow in his heart.
And, and in the corridors of church schools, you will see it.
The principal of the church school and the owner of the resort villa.
Earl of Moon Phase, Rand Nicholas.
...
In the more than four years of running a school in Rand, several groups of students have graduated.
The first batch of graduates who visited the battles of Land and Poron Kingdom were not the first batch.
Now due to the domestic political turmoil in the Frost Moon Kingdom, many students have graduated.
Some of them have just returned to the family, while others have already occupied high positions in their family.
There are even students who inherit the title.
And now, the third prince has fled the royal city.
The civil war is about to begin.
Graduates from these church schools are divided into two camps.
...
Rand's mission in the Adventurers Association has been completed.
Now Rand has obtained a batch of magic salamanders.
The research on dragon blood extraction of dragon blood stone has also made breakthroughs in progress.
Although extraction is still difficult and the yield rate is very low, at least it is confirmed that the one in the dragon blood stone that can enhance physical fitness is dragon blood.
And although the yield rate is low, the purity is good, which is much higher than the purity extracted from the body of the sub-dragon species.
And the magic salamander.
It is good in adaptability and regenerative.
It's time to continue experimenting.
As for the current domestic problems.
This is indeed a big problem, but Rand has no solution at the moment.
In fact, it may not be possible. Rand and the Grand Duke of Thorns, united with the power of the Black Brown Marquis, the Bucks Earl, and some neutral factions, should have the hope of forcibly suppressing both sides and forcibly creating peace.
but!
Isn’t that the Torch Church?
When the Southern Kingdom gold mine war started, the Torch Church wanted to mediate forcibly.
The Torch Church has proved that the peace that was forced to mediate has no meaning.
The current situation in the Frost Moon Kingdom is similar to Rand's view.
The two factions within the Frost Moon Kingdom are like the two alliances of the Southern Kingdom.
The throne is equivalent to the gold mine that can produce magic metal-companied mines.
Rand and some neutral factions are equivalent to the original Torch Church.
It is difficult for humans to learn from historical experiences and lessons, but the matter of the Torch Church is right in front of us, and Rand still understands it very well.
Rand is ready to wait until both sides make some results and consume some anger before making a decision.
From the moment the Great Prince attacked the Third Prince's residence at night, the civil war actually began, and the consumption of national strength was inevitable.
And if both sides don’t really fight one, they won’t be willing to accept other results.
Therefore, Rand held his troops and watched the world situation in the Frost Moon Kingdom in the crescent moon.
Of course, there is another very important reason why Rand does this, that is, he is qualified to do so.
Therefore, in the surging Frost Moon Kingdom, the Earl of Moon, the Moon Phase entered a busy but not particularly tense atmosphere.
Rand held the magic salamander in his hand and began to inject dragon blood into the magic salamander.
The magic salamander is a dangerous and powerful magical creature.
But Rand is very strong, at least the magic salamander is difficult to break free in Rand's hands.
Olena, who was standing by, still abides by her duties as a clerk, helping Rand write the test records.
...
On the other side, in the south, fleeing civilians.
Stopped in the wilderness.
The location of the New Holy City is a territorial disputed area for many countries.
Many southern kingdoms claim sovereignty here.
However, due to the involvement of all parties, it cannot be actually controlled.
This led to the spread of monsters, bandits everywhere, and there were many cultists.
Later, the Paladins of the New Holy City came here.
After cleaning up the monsters in the wild and wandering cultists, they chose a good area to build a city.
The power of the New Holy City is powerful, at least it seems to be powerful, and the bandits and cultists who destroy it are also destroyed.
Therefore, the countries that were controversial about this land were recognized by the fact that the utilitarian paladins had established a new holy city here.
The civilians who chose freedom have not been able to escape from the New Holy City.
Most of the land near the New Holy City is semi-wilderness.
There are many poisonous insects and wild animals.
Fortunately, at the beginning of the plan, the armory of the New Holy City was robbed, and the civilians had more or less iron tools.
This makes their wild survivability much stronger.
The wilderness is also lacking in food.
However, when the "Jiuyang Plan" was launched, these were also considered.
Therefore, there are not many problems at the moment.
But I can't hold on for too long.
The New Holy City has begun to send people to hunt down these fugitives.
Moreover, the food cannot last long, after all, the food that people can carry is limited.
It's still winter, and they don't have houses to resist the severe cold.
These are all problems.
No big deal can happen in a short period of time.
But I definitely can't hold on for too long.
And many people got separated.
Some of the arrested people have their own places, such as Kuirou, the rat man and his fellow tribes.
They were caught in the New Holy City, and the rat man Quirou was planning to find the holy artifacts of their race.
There are also some civilians who have been caught from other places and have their own places to go.
Or simply plan to join the territory of a certain noble.
Of course, the group that accounts for the largest proportion is the group that is willing to go to the Count of Moon Phase.
They may not be worried that they will be oppressed like they are in the New Holy City after going to the Earl of Moon.
It's just that they have to make such a choice.
In the New Holy City, it can be almost completely desperate, and in the wilderness, you will basically be caught or die.
Then a choice appears at this time. This choice may be just as bad, but it should not be worse.
Maybe it might be better.
At least for now, the missionaries and paladins who preached them are different from the ones with the largest proportion in the New Holy City.
So whether to choose this option can actually be concluded.
But now there is a problem.
To enter the Earl of Moon Phase, you need to pass through a southern power, the Kingdom of Lenza, which is hostile to the Kingdom of Frost Moon.
This is quite difficult.
If it is a caravan or a slave caravan, it will not be too difficult to walk between noble territories.
At most, some people or money will be deducted.
Adventurers are more difficult than caravans to cross the border, but they can do it.
But if it is a free civilian, it will be very difficult to cross the border.
The merciful lords will capture them, and the greedy lords will capture them.
Mobile, ownerless civilians.
It’s like walking silver coins, being caught is the norm.
The original plan was to bribe or use slave merchants.
But now...
The coastline is not far away.
At that time, because the Ice Sea Kingdom often likes to go south to rob, many nearby villages have moved.
After the orc invasion, many villages moved back and started to compete with the fishman and Naga for survival space.
Next is waiting for the arrival of Count Rand's ship.
Earl Rand had already made the decision.
The ship borrowed from the Ice Sea Kingdom robbers who lost their royal city as the flagship, and with the help of the Bucks Earl, the ship borrowed from the Ice Sea Kingdom robbers who lost their royal city as their ships, came here to transport civilians to the Tsing Yue Port.
According to the plan mentioned by Earl Rand, the timing should be the nearest.
Rand's fleet would take these civilians to the land of hope.
Now it is Lesa who leads these civilians.
When Lesa was serious, she looked calmly at the Torch Church's newborn and "former utilitarian" paladins who were now under her command.
"The plan is over now, and everyone has done a good job so far." Lesa said.
Lesa is always arrogant, but Lesa like this always makes people willing to obey her orders.
She is very much like a qualified leader when she needs it.
Everyone listened to Lesa's plan.
"There is only the last hurdle left next." Lesha looked at these subordinates, "Everyone, have a good rest. Everyone has been tired these days. This time, not only those civilians are going to successfully arrive at Xinyue Port, but you are also here. .”
After saying that, Lesa waved her hand and signaled that everyone could go down and rest.
Next is the final difficulty.
The New Holy City has sent troops to pursue them, although their pursuit progress is very inefficient because of some unknown reason, just like someone is dragging them down.
But he was riding a horse and was almost here.
And the immediate questions.
To reach the coastline, you also need to pass through a noble territory.
So many of them will inevitably be discovered. Will the nobles on the opposite side be willing to leave here with so many coins that they can walk?
