Chapter 177: Bishop Frank
When Da Liang knew that the food in the Misty Region was very expensive, he planned to become a food supplier and resell alcohol and some high-end delicacies from the main position to the Death Realm.
Now it seems that selling food in the foggy area is the same as going to the primitive tribes of Africa to sell brand-name fashion, and the purchasing power cannot be reached, and it cannot be sold if it is shipped over.
It's just that the Black Fire Collar has already sent a batch of drinks and freshly caught sea fish to the Buried Bones, and it seems that he doesn't want to think about exchanging them for gold coins.
Since he was planning to hold a banquet at Destiny Manor, Da Liang ordered the Bone Land Fortress to load all the wine and food that had been transported, and then use the skeleton carriage to transport it to the City of Sighs at full speed.
The expected arrival time of the convoy and the accompanying troops was three days later in the evening, just in time for the banquet.
In addition, the church in the Misty District has a new bishop, and Da Liang also wants to take the opportunity of this banquet to get to know this bishop. Find out what the new protagonist is interested in, and then do what he likes to get the process of the territory building task done.
Everything seems to be going very well.
It's just that Da Liang still doesn't trust the residents of the Misty Zone, and he can't entrust them to inquire about Frank's whereabouts, so he can only wait for his trusted army to arrive for Minia and Jonathan's commission. There are a few undead heroes who came with the army this time, although they belong to the tavern recruitment and don't have any outstanding abilities, but they can still be competent to inquire about the news.
Da Liang sat in his bedroom, looking through the window at the gradually busy manor below, while thinking about his plans in the realm of death.
When you feel that there are no major omissions, you can practice the design of the brig on a table.
On land, players in the Chinese region have no rivals around East Asia, and there is little pressure to survive as long as they don't go on expeditions.
The threat to China comes from the sea.
And the cost of naval warfare is much greater than that of land warfare.
In land wars, players in China can flock to the battlefield with a single order, and can easily organize a battle of millions of people on several battlefields at the same time.
And the threshold for naval warfare is much higher.
To fight a naval battle, there must first be a warship, a series of logistics support ships such as armament, captains, sailors, etc., and the maintenance of peacetime alone is enough to exclude the vast majority of players from naval warfare games.
Naval battles, once they began, were fateful wars, a ship was sunk, all the inputs were lost, a fleet was wiped out, and rebuilding required a lot of money and time.
To lose sea power is to lose the opportunity for development.
Just like the current Korean game area, in the face of the pressure of the entire northern seafaring players in the Chinese region, they can only trap their own seafront, not only can not provide effective support to the Jeju fleet, but also greatly lose the competitiveness of gold in Southeast Asia.
The lessons of the past make Daliang pay more attention to how to strengthen his maritime strength.
Fight for quantity, the black fire collar is not the opponent of the player, but only for quality.
At a time when player ship designers around the world are stuck in the bottleneck of sloops and brigs, Da Liang decided to complete the installation of the Blackfire Fleet brig and improve the hull performance as soon as possible.
As with dhows, designing a high-performance brig requires a deep understanding of the base model of a brig.
Da Liang stayed in his room like this, drawing the brig drawings one by one.
The originally calm fog area, because of the sudden appearance of the Destiny Manor, some things are slowly fermenting.
After leaving the Cathedral of the City of Sighs, Frank couldn't wait to come to the Misty District Church to take up his post.
What he saw, however, was a dilapidated building, with multiple collapses in the walls, dead grass all over the church, a ten-meter-diameter hole in the ceiling, and a meteorite of the same size smashed under the altar.
Here, there is no splendor and solemnity of the unsullied churches like other places, and the decay and dilapidation are like a dwelling of the dead on the side of the street. There are traces of the battles of all kinds of powerful heroes everywhere, and you can imagine how many disasters this church has been.
Although Frank had heard about the situation in the Fog Zone, he was still angered by the scene in front of him.
He was angry that the monarch's promise was playing tricks on him, and that he had destroyed his new home into such a misty inhabitant.
The Wizards' Guild has betrayed our original ideals, and it has become obsessed with the Monarchs of Death, reduced to a tool in Cloudsdale to control the Realm of the Dead.
And I always remember that I am a wizard, and only witchcraft can make me a god-like being in the end. In this Fog Zone, I will continue my research into witchcraft and recreate a new Wizarding Guild. An organization that can concentrate all the material and power that will elevate me to God.
And the first problem to solve now is to control the Fog Zone first, and then loot the wealth here.
After all, the study of witchcraft requires a lot of money.
Standing below the altar, Frank summoned a missionary from the Unsullied Holy See and asked, "How many clergy are there in the Church of the Misty Zone?" How many Papal Knights are there? ”
The walking corpse missionary who followed Frank replied respectfully, "Dear Bishop. There are now ten clergy in the Misty Zone, all of whom are the lowest level of missionaries. As for the Papal Knights? There are no more appointments now. ”
According to the structure of the Holy See, the Holy See of a region has one bishop, three popes, ten to twenty church fathers, and missionaries are free to appoint. In addition, each church has an Order of the Holy See as the armed force of the church, and the task of the Knights of the Church is mainly to patrol the diocese and attack the Vault Dwellers who have turned their backs on death according to the bishop's orders.
Now there are only ten missionaries in the church in the Misty Zone, and the administrative and military strength is basically zero, plus such a dilapidated church.
Frank was even more annoyed.
Churches need to be renovated, clergy need to be recruited, and the Order of the Holy See needs to be formed, all of which cost a lot of money.
"How much money do we have in our storeroom?"
The missionary felt the anger of the new bishop, and he hastened to say: "When the previous bishop was assassinated, the mob took everything from the storehouse......"
"Bastard!"
Frank finally couldn't help but curse.
The bribes he had received from the Sorrowful Monarch had not filled the great hole of the Misty Church.
And the cost of his research on witchcraft, the cost of creating a new wizarding guild, all of which cost money, and it took an untold amount of money.
Just as Frank was hesitating to rebuild the church out of his own pocket, another missionary hurriedly ran in: "Lord, Lord Bishop. A human named Booneless invites you to a banquet he hosts on his estate three days later. ”
"Deboning?"
When Frank heard the name, he frowned.
"Yes, Your Excellency. This Terran named Deboned is a rich man who has just come to the Misty Zone, and he is very rich, so the residents of the Misty Zone can build a Terran manor for him in one day. ”
Building a manor in a day requires a lot of magicians and labor.
It seems that this human race called deboning is really very rich.
Frank squinted his eyes and smiled: "You reply to the other party, I will be there in three days, and I will personally bless him and welcome a new resident of my parish." ”
