Territory quests, this option has been greyed out since the entire Panda Territory was recovered three months ago, and the system prompt was turned on.

For the operation of the system, Sean was too familiar to be more familiar, and immediately knew that this meant that this option was out of an inoperable state. It's impossible to say that you're not curious, but no matter how curious you are, this entry column has been in an inoperable state, and Sean doesn't have a problem with it. Thinking about whether it might be a hidden mission or something, I ran around the territory during that time, but I didn't trigger any territory tasks, so I forgot about it after that.

Unexpectedly, just when I saw the residents of Panda Town start to move, the system actually issued an instruction.

You have activated a Territory Quest. 】

Sean opened the entry column for the territory quest as he pondered the meaning of the sentence.

The word "activated" is a bit chewy.

This usually means that the territory quest isn't as hidden as Sean thinks, but it's not much worse. At the very least, the appearance of this kind of task must be a sudden task, and it will definitely be accompanied by a series of events, which means that this kind of task is destined to have some so-called "cause and effect relationship" with this world, and it is usually not a simple task, otherwise it would not be possible to appear on the task panel.

Sean, who opened the territory task panel, looked at it, and there was a red mark on the territory task prominently.

With a little thought, the task spreads out like flowing water from top to bottom.

[Mission Name: Followers of the Goddess of Ice and Winter]

[Content: A cultist who worships the goddess of ice and winter has entered your territory.] As a god who has fallen into a deep slumber since the Age of Dusk, the goddess of snow and winter is not as powerful as before, and her godhead has lost a lot. Her followers are now looking for a sanctuary where they can build their faith and gather their powers, and if the believer dies or fails to establish a place of faith within three months, the goddess of snow and winter will fall completely. 】

[Mission Reward: Get a chance to win the lottery once.] 】

Sean stared silently at the content of the mission. I thought about it.

"I'll go to Red Leaf Town, and I'll leave it to you here." Sean turned his head to look at Sean and said.

The latter was already lying on horseback, looking like he didn't like to deal with people, he hadn't seen Sean's temperament for the first day, and he really didn't know what to say about this lord who liked to be the shopkeeper, so he simply turned a blind eye. waved his hand casually twice, and it looked even more heroic than Sean, the real lord, and Simi was surprised to see him.

She and Vivian and Elizabeth are sisters to Asuna, but in fact they are also in private. If there are outsiders, they will also pose as subordinates and retainers, and there will be no transgression. But following Sean to this Panda Ling really subverted all her cognition, how could Simi not be surprised?

"Count Simi. I'll go to Red Leaf Town to deal with some personal matters, you ......"

"It's fine. Sir Sean, go ahead. I'm here to learn a little about the art of war from Lord William. Before Sean finished speaking, Simi said very understandingly, "I heard earlier that His Excellency William is extremely proficient in military strategy, so this time I also came with a purpose. ”

Sean smiled slightly, didn't say anything more, and drove away directly. On the contrary, William, who was left behind to be a teacher to the earl of Simi. Rolled his eyes and looked very unhappy, through getting along with each other in the past few days, he already knew that Dao Simi was a complete academic, and if you don't have solid theoretical knowledge for such a person. Who is qualified to be his teacher, but William is an out-and-out practical student, not one of those theorists at all.

So after getting along for the past few days, William was in great pain. Every time the exchange with Simi starts, it almost turns into a verbal dispute, usually not two or three hours, there is no way to tell the winner at all, of course, in the military dispute Simi naturally cannot win William, with William's meanness and poisonous tongue, once the dispute wins, how will it give Simi a good face, every time it is cynical to make Simi angry all over the body, at this time William will remember Simi's other identity.

But what can be the result? The next day, the same thing continued to play out, and even William wondered if this Simi was sick. So on the fourth day, William simply hid on Sean's side, but was still approached by Simi. And now, Sean is gone, William is worried about where he can hide in the future, turning his head and coldly seeing Simi looking at him with a gentle smile, William suddenly regrets how he became Sean's commander for the sake of the addict who can command the army.

Sean ignored William's complaints, and rode straight to Momiji Town.

In the past, in the game, Sean has never been a thoughtful and exquisite person, he knows a lot of strategies, a lot of secret things, but these are all he memorized word by word, word by word. Sean has always felt that he is not smart enough, so he can only rely on rote memorization to polish his team, but fortunately, it is really a little effective, and it really allows him to polish a strong elite team.

And in the original game, a lot of the work was taken care of by the executive chairman who adopted him, and most of the time the intelligence work was already prepared, and he didn't need to spend any brains. But after coming to this world, it was completely different, Sean had to find a way to solve those so-called puzzles by himself, and he had to rack his brains to think about what plots those clues and intelligence were involved, and even had to seriously study the feasibility of some plans.

So at this moment, when he saw this territory mission, Sean's first reaction was Red Leaf Town.

Sean has already been to White Dove Town and Panda Town, there is no temple in White Dove Town, but there is one in Panda Town, but if this quest is really the temple in Panda Town, it is impossible to wait until all the townspeople have left Panda Town to activate it. Because the content of the quest clearly states that "a believer who worships the goddess of ice and snow and winter has entered your territory", Sean guesses that this believer should have come from the east, and the only places he will pass through are White Dove Town and Red Leaf Town.

But there is no shrine in White Pigeon Town, only in Red Leaf Town.

If the mission is "activated", it means that it is similar to a mine-triggered mission. Thinking about it this way, the place where the mission took place must be in Momiji Town.

These are all the wisdom that Sean has grown up under the force of helplessness. Of course, whether there is more bonus effects similar to equipment and attributes after coming to this world, Sean is not sure. But since wearing the ring called "Thinker" given by the director of the Haytham Institute, Sean has really felt what wisdom is, many problems that originally seemed quite complicated, and after a little thought and consideration, he was able to figure out the core of the problem.

But for now. What really makes Sean a little uncertain is how to deal with this matter.

This province quest does not give a real quest requirement, which means that the realm quest does not have as many restrictions as those delegated quests, but rather has a very high degree of freedom. And judging from the content of the tasks shown so far, Sean can roughly judge it. This territorial mission is probably for him to help the believer of the goddess of ice and winter build a temple to collect the faith, or to prevent the believer from collecting the power of the faith, or to kill the believer outright.

The former is to help the ancient god regain a foothold in the kingdom of the gods. And the latter was directly erased by this god.

Either the former or the latter. Sean believes that he can get paid for the task, which is a chance to draw a lottery.

But if it's just to get paid for such a task, there's really no need for Sean to run in such a hurry. If Sean values this matter, it is naturally to be able to obtain greater benefits, and Sean has not taken it to heart for a lottery opportunity. Of course, if you can get the lottery items according to Sean's wishes. Then he might care a little more, anyway, it's a stuff full of randomness, how could Sean really care.

He never believed in pinning his hopes on illusory things.

Back then, in the game, if there was a dungeon, there was no strategy. Sean never thought about what would happen if there was one more critical hit, or if the boss slipped at the time. He directly began to reflect from beginning to end, and then picked out all the faults, and then began to lead by himself, overcoming these faults and problems one by one, so in the later strategy of each copy, when others have a large number of high-level equipment and half-crushing and half-relying on skills, Sean's team will always pass the level with the minimum standard.

So even in the game, many dungeons he didn't get the first kill, but everyone regarded Shaun's team as the uncrowned king of that dungeon.

Along the way, Sean was constantly thinking about what he could do to squeeze all the value of this territory mission - the so-called value is naturally nothing more than what benefits he can gain if this believer is allowed to build a temple in the territory; And if he let the believer die, or prevent the other party from setting up a temple to collect the power of faith, what benefit would he gain from it?

If this believer really has some strength, and the charism that this ice and snow and winter can shelter is really good, Sean actually doesn't mind letting this believer build a temple in his territory and recruit believers to collect the power of faith. After all, this is likely to mean the establishment of a priesthood - Sean doesn't know anything else, but he knows better than anyone else about the strength of the priesthood.

And the normal clergy corps, naturally, can only come forward to assist in the event of a war between countries. There has never been a precedent for a temple to send a corps of priests to assist in a war, as in the case of disputes between lords, at least not in the present era. And in the context of the current era, the priests under the command of the gods are very shrewd, and they all feel that they are worth extraordinary, how can they become the possibility of becoming a military priest, and it is very good to give the lord face if they can give a little blessing to the army before going out.

That's not what Sean wants.

If this believer is really able to cultivate a regiment of military priests for his army, even if Sean gives this goddess the right to believe in the entire territory, then what's the matter? (To be continued.) )
