298 Order's Guard
Although Beta felt that he would definitely win the secret battle with Bud by himself, he still didn't sleep and didn't work.
When it comes to proselytizing and deepening the faith of believers, Shirley has a great talent for it. She is a divine creature herself, and believers can feel the divine aura of Waujin as long as they stay at a certain distance from her. For believers, if they can feel the breath of the gods, it is a supreme gift for them, and it will naturally strengthen their belief in the gods.
Shirley is in charge of the mission every day, and now she rarely sticks to Beta, but as long as the two of them are alone, Shirley's affectionate eyes can melt most men's hearts. Since Beta rescued her from Workin's men, she seems to be becoming more and more independent, but in fact she is becoming more and more dependent on Beta.
Beta has almost no end to do now, not only has he to direct a few students to build better stone houses for the believers, but he also has to grasp the big picture. Now there are more and more people who believe in Workin, among which dragons and snakes are mixed, and many people do not believe in Workin will change their ways.
Many of them are even deceiving other believers or oppressing ordinary civilians under the guise of believers.
These people are definitely the ones to be cleaned up. Therefore, Beta wanted Katy and her team to temporarily set up the Order Guard, so that they could go from the dark world to the light, from logistics to the foreground.
Beta made a series of rules and regulations for them, but when he used them to find Katy, he caused some opposition.
Katy took the book of rules and regulations, looked at it for a moment, and then set it aside. Several of her subordinates immediately grabbed it, flipped it for a while, and then their faces became more and more solemn.
In Beta's opinion. It's a very standardized, and very humane book of rules and regulations, but in the eyes of Katie and her subordinates, it doesn't seem very human.
"Your Excellency, can you change it?" Katie looked at Beta and asked, "This system is too difficult for strong people." ”
Beta didn't expect the other party to object. "Which one, for example?" he asked. ”
"Here, all members of the Order Guard are not allowed to drink alcohol on the day of duty. There is also this, the personnel of the guard, can not leave the post ten kilometers without authorization. And this ......" Katy said for nearly five minutes in one breath, and the terms she gave examples were very necessary rules in Beta's opinion, but in their opinion. Such a clause is indeed difficult for some strong people.
"That's it?" Beta asked, "Isn't there anything else?" ”
Katie shook her head, "No." ”
I have to say that there is a big difference between human beings in the information age of the earth and human beings in this world in terms of concepts.
Earthlings believe that a strong army must pass through a detailed system. and the usual little by little specifications can be created. So Beta is in the game. His army was also trained and restrained according to this rule, although it was also opposed by Glynton and others in the early stage, but he persevered and cultivated an elite army.
Therefore, Katy and others objected, in fact, in a certain speed, they just wanted to live more comfortably.
Teachable Regiment Guard. In Beta's vision, it is not only the temple's guardian force, but also one of the temple's propaganda windows, which must not only be combative, but also disciplined. A character similar to a soldier.
Beta's gaze swept over Katy and the others, and then said, "I won't change the rules again, so what do you think?" ”
"If you don't change it, you won't change it." A man standing aside said with a rather arrogant expression, "Who do you think you are?" If you want to manage the affairs of the temple, it is naturally Ms. Shirley, and if you want to manage the combat power of our temple, it is naturally Ms. Kati. Isn't it because of Ms. Shirley that you can be crooked here, don't think that you have some strength and can point fingers at us. ”
"Shut up." Katie yelled at the man, then she said to Beta in embarrassment, "It's a bit difficult. You should also know that they are mercenaries, and it is indeed a bit impersonal to bind them with strict terms. ”
Beta waved her hand, "I don't have to ask them to follow these rules. They don't have to join the Order Guard, but they can teach the Order Guard, and they must act according to the rules and regulations I have written. ”
Carty finally heard something: "You mean, let them go?" ”
As soon as these words came out, several mercenaries were shocked. Two or three even looked at Beta with hatred.
Beta didn't care at all about the hostile expressions of these mercenaries, he nodded and said, "If they can follow the rules I set, then the core of the Order Guard will naturally have their share. If you can't comply, you have to leave. Of course, I'm not a ruthless person, you guys have been helping the temple during this time, and you have no merit and no hardship, and I will give each of you a severance pay of twenty gold coins as a little heart. ”
Speaking of which, Beta felt that she had done her best.
It's just that Katy and the others have extremely unsightly faces. The person who choked up on the beta just now continued to choke: "What qualifications do you have to decide the rules and regulations of the Order's Guard, if you really want to decide the system, it should be our Katie boss, not you." ”
Beta looked at each other and smiled, "If I can't decide the system of the Order Guard, then who can?" You? You are not even a believer in the goddess Waukin, what right do you have to question my decision? ”
The man was speechless.
Beta looked at Katy: "I know you are very emotional, you recruited these people, you will definitely worry about their future." ”
This was said to Katy's heart, and she nodded, agreeing with Beta's statement.
Beta continued, "But the Order's guards are different, this is the power to guard the temple, and it is the foundation of our existence. Now the power of the Cult of God is slowly becoming bigger and stronger, and a strong and self-binding guard is necessary. If our core, that is, the people who lead them, can't do these institutional contents, then the army brought out will definitely be vulnerable. ”
The man shouted again: "You little white face, do you know how to lead an army?" Let me teach you, of course when I was in the army, charging with more than a hundred men......"
A golden pillar of light swept directly past the man, and the powerful magic current shook his whole body.
Beta withdrew his hand and said lightly: "Back then, I took a few thousand men with me. You weren't even born when you fought in a war of tens of thousands. ”
The words immediately left everyone speechless. Although they did not believe it very much, they did not dare to disbelieve it. Many times, strength can change all objections, and Beta's hand showed its strength, and then they remembered. Not long ago, a companion was beaten by this little white face in their eyes, and his nose was swollen, and he was powerless to fight back.
"Katy, you talk to them." Beta said expressionlessly, "If you are willing to accept my system, then stay." If they don't want to, let them come to me and get twenty gold coins. ”
Then Beta left.
The next day, Katy came with his subordinates, half of whom received twenty gold coins. Leave immediately. After missing these people, Beta immediately selected those strong and strong young people with relatively high faith values among the believers, and formed a hundred and twenty Church Guards.
Then came the hard training, and the few remaining professionals mingled with the ordinary guards and received Beta's 'education'. Because Beta's training method draws on the drill practices of the Earth Army, especially in military discipline. A certain red team was almost completely copied, so the people who were trained at first were complaining. But soon they got used to it, and their spirits gradually changed.
The training of more than a hundred people, naturally, there was no way to hide it from those who had a heart, and soon the news of the training of the guards in the Workin Temple reached the ears of Bard of the Temple of Light.
He was now sitting in his study, looking happy.
The Temple of Light has been built. After spending a lot of gold, it is larger and more imposing than the Temple of Workin. And now Bard has converted nearly thirty nobles and become a shallow believer in the goddess of light.
And these shallow believers have donated a lot of money. He recovered one-third of the gold coins spent on the early construction of the Temple of Light.
Money is easy to do! Bard chuckled, and then he planned to continue to convert the nobles to the shallow believers, as long as he worked hard, he would get back all the money spent on building the temple, which would be a great merit, and he might be able to become an archbishop at that time.
A fool like the Waujin Temple, who only knows how to sprinkle money, will never run the temple. The only way to await them is bankruptcy.
The priest of the temple had to eat, the temple had to be repaired, and the temple had to build a guard, all of which required money. And once the money of the Wokin Temple is used up, then it will definitely face the tragedy of people going to tea. Even if the young boy understood the importance of money in advance, they had already made an oath that he would not preach to the poor, and the other party could not preach to the nobles.
When the temple of Waujin had no money, they naturally had to preach to the nobles, and the poor people had no money to donate to them. And because of the oath, once Beta takes the initiative to come to the aristocratic district, then he has a chance to make trouble.
Indeed, if there are many believers, it will be of great benefit to the gods. But if the temple itself can't be maintained, no amount of believers will be in vain. Therefore, all temples were given priority to the nobility, and faith would only be useful if the temple could be maintained.
Only the young, inexperienced young man would rush to preach to the poor. In Bud's eyes, Beta is indeed quite capable, but he is too young and inexperienced.
How long will the money from the Waujin Temple be spent? Half?
Bard stood up, guessing, and got into the carriage as he went out to be a guest at the house of a nobleman he had made an appointment. This person is also the object of his mission, because the other party is very rich, as long as he can become a shallow believer, the other party will definitely donate a large amount of money.
The carriage soon reached its destination, and when he got out of it, he was told by the butler standing at the door that the master had gone to the temple of Waukin.
Went to the Temple of Waukin? Bard's first reaction was a little annoyed, and then he immediately rejoiced, could it be that Beta had preached to this nobleman? Then he would have a reason to trouble the Workin Temple.
He hurried back to the carriage and shouted, "Quick, take me to the Temple of Workin." ”
The man Bard was going to preach, and it was called Joyce. His family was originally a wealthy merchant, and it took four generations of hard work to finally become a nobleman, and he was accepted as a member of the aristocracy.
Now Joyce was looking at Shirley with a look of obsession in her eyes.
As long as normal men like beautiful women, and Shirley's appearance is definitely the first in Copper Drum City, without any suspense.
It's just that Joyce didn't come to tease the beauty, he came this time to ask the Waugold Temple to sacrifice gold coins for him.
The lord of the city, Glynton, achieved the legend through the sacrifice of gold coins, which was clear to all nobles. They also inquired that gold sacrifices cost a lot of gold, but if they just turned themselves into professionals, the gold cost was still within their acceptable range.
Many people are quite interested in this, but because they are not very familiar with the relationship with the Wolkin Temple, they don't dare to come over casually, for fear that if they fail, they will kill people, after all, most of them are just ordinary people, and they are not strong people like the city lord. And the slum is dirty and smelly, and they don't want to go to that kind of lowly place.
However, recently there are more and more people who believe in the goddess of Waukin, and those poor people who were originally dirty and smelly, after believing in the goddess of Waukin, not only have become clean, but also have a strange temperament.
Because of the family business, Joyce had more contact with the commoners, and after coming and going, he understood the teachings of the Temple of Waukin. He was then surprised to find that the doctrine of the Temple of Waujin was nothing more than the dogma of aristocratic etiquette.
Although there are other inexplicable rules in it, the core content is indeed the etiquette dogma of the nobility.
For example, love cleanliness; rules for eating; Precautions when speaking; walking posture; Persuade people to be more literate and so on. The so-called aristocratic etiquette is actually these small places, accumulated bit by bit, slowly changing a person's way of doing things, making him become quality and retreat.
And these things are generally only taught by people in aristocratic families...... They don't spread this kind of teaching to the civilians out there, because it's the easiest and most direct way for them to distinguish themselves from the civilians.
Joyce thought it was an astonishing discovery, but he didn't tell anyone, but went to understand it himself, read the teachings of the Temple of Waukin, and then he made a very bold decision to sacrifice gold coins, and if it succeeded, then he decided to believe in the goddess Waukin, and if it failed, it didn't matter, as long as people didn't die, anything was easy to do.
