Chapter 281 Chapter 29.3-B: Double Funeral and Gladiators

·

You handed all four "divine bones" to the plane mage, who thanked you profusely and ran away quickly while holding the white stone, ignoring the obstruction or complaints of the other three.

Because there is no need to show off,

Let’s put it bluntly,

Those three people... can't be said to be cheating on you, but they're close to it.

Knowledge is power. They are all sure that no one, including you, understands their professional field. In short, they must first grab the divine body.

Regarding the clones, in order to cut off the possibility of rebellion or escape, the closer the four of them are to you, the more demented they become. Moreover, they cannot disperse their actions among themselves and can only be sent as an adventurer expedition. Until they are destroyed, they can make money.

Half of the experience gained will be returned to you, which is no different from a piggy bank with a 50% tax deduction. It is very likely that you will be struggling with four negative levels for a long time. Suppose you are in urgent need of strength when you reach level 14, and then smash

By smashing those four clones of about level 8, you are not rising to 14+4+4×4=more than level 20 in one go, but you are only rising to about level 19. Extract good, evil, and defensive characters from your character.

The typical characteristics of order and chaos are stuffed into the four golems, so their words and deeds are far from the original body. Of course, fifth-class marriage is impossible.

When it comes to artifacts, just having four stones as the core is definitely not enough. You also need many other rare materials that can match the divine bones. Many of them cannot be bought with money. You will need to work hard to collect, search, exchange and even rob.

Because the divine skeleton is the mermaid princess' love token, the news will spread like wildfire, and the final result is that the artifact that was worked so hard is targeted by countless bandits. To this day, the whereabouts of the +5 acid giant sword of the first generation are still unknown.

That's the best example.

Divide it and eat it? How many drops of essence can be extracted from the stone? You purse your lips and it's gone. From the moment of the proposal, the chef concluded that there must be some kind of side effects.

Maybe the three of them originally planned to explain the pros and cons to you, but as the dispute became more and more fierce, no one mentioned it.

certainly,

You only learned about the above disadvantages a long time later, so you had no idea what the plane mage was hiding. It is difficult to expose the disadvantages proposed by others through cross-disciplinary arguments. In fact, the three of them knew very little about plane travel.

All the arguments didn't reveal much - although the otaku mage can also travel through planes, his ambitions are entirely within his own nest.

"I'm really looking forward to it."

Annette sighed as she looked at the back of the plane mage moving like a rabbit, and you nodded silently, looking forward to your future adventures in another plane.

Master Zhai was very unhappy and bluntly said that you were wasting your natural resources. You told him that you would go to the business later. He was happy.

Langdon was very sorry. You told him that you would start the workshop later and asked him to guide you. He was also happy.

The chef's expression is full of despair, as if he has lost millions. You tell him that there are many monsters in the underground arena that he can try. His expression is full of hope... You never said that you can eat.

The three of them were successfully appeased, and Samuel came again.

After saluting respectfully, Samuel would like to invite the lords to attend the two funerals on behalf of the three management agencies of the camp. "Yesterday's defensive battle, the guards suffered heavy losses, both the captain and deputy were killed. The guards and Count Aneurin's soldiers fought bravely against the enemy, and the sacrifices were

There are so many. According to etiquette, a grand funeral should be held, otherwise it will chill the hearts of the soldiers."

"The captain and the deputy are buried separately? Or should the guards and soldiers be buried separately?"

"The other one is not directly related to us." Samuel replied, "Wasn't there a retired Druid King before? He came to the camp to say hello and then flew to the wilderness without any news. This morning, the camp

A lot of druids came here...a lot. Only then did we know that the old Druid king yesterday, uh, should it be called death or nirvana in religious terms? In short, he turned into a big tree and passed away. According to etiquette, he

He is highly respected and our two places are adjacent to each other, so we should also show our respect."

Turned into a big tree?

It's okay to show respect, and I really want to see a scene with many druids. Priests are restricted by the temple management system and rarely go out alone, and the urban faction has no chance to see large groups of druids, which is rare.

Suddenly Annette asked: "Where is Miss Hathaway? I thought she would be the one to inform the president."

"She's busy."

"But camp work is not her job, right? Although it is also the president's business."

"Then I don't know."

We haven't seen Hathaway since last night when she was escorted to the court. Logically speaking, she should be fine. Tong En hasn't come back either. How long does she plan to hide in the Fairy Wilderness?

You take the teleportation array to the camp,

Half of the ruins are in front of you.

Basic rescue and repairs have been done. There are broken stones and beams on both sides of the road, and the damage is more serious than expected. The front city gate has disappeared without a trace, and there is also a gap in the side wall. Even if it is a double-thick wall, it is made of wood.

It was obviously not very strong. Looking around, about 40% of the houses had collapsed, but it was easy to rebuild because most of them were relatively simple wooden buildings. There was no black smoke, no corpses, and no crying women and children. The situation seemed to be under control.

In a location similar to a square, craftsmen are building what looks like a circular platform.

You walked towards the gap in the side city wall, where many familiar faces gathered. More than forty graves were dug on the ground, with a coffin placed next to them. You looked up and looked into the distance. There was no grass left, only scorched earth, and several large pits.

, you can vaguely see a frightening number of corpses randomly thrown inside, and some are even piled up to the top.

The retired old bishop was holding a funeral, praying devoutly. The paladins also lowered their heads and knelt on one knee holding their swords to pray. The atmosphere was solemn.

The female village chief squeezed next to you and handed over a report, which counted six civilians dead, twenty guards dead, eighteen Count Aneurin's infantry dead, and two cavalry. Approximately 100,000 enemies were killed.

Seven hundred, of which only two hundred were killed inside the city wall, and about a hundred were disarmed and captured along with Clementine Walter. The corpses of those enemies were all dumped in the big pit on the battlefield.

Hmm? Where's Hathaway? Why wasn't she at the funeral?

The female village chief pointed in the direction of the underground city: "I was there just now, and now I'm following the elf secretary, Fiertin, the Sword Songs, dozens of killers who surrendered from the black street, and a few former slaves of the elves to see the giant tree.

They plan to use the giant tree transformed by the old Druid King as a landmark to rebuild their home, and are negotiating with other high-level druids. It is said that the negotiations are going relatively smoothly."

...This has nothing to do with Hathaway, right? Although it is also business.

Seeing you folding your arms and being deep in thought, the female village chief thought that she had some instructions that she couldn't give because the secretary was not around. She saluted and said, "If you have any instructions, please just tell me. I or any representative of the management agency will implement them."

You pointed at the inconspicuous damage on her clothes. She was startled and said with a smile: "You are so attentive. I'm sorry. All the staff in the council hall have not slept since they were busy yesterday, so they ignored their appearance. I hit one.

The arrow has been cured."

You ask again, what happened to the raw gemstones that were previously delivered to the camp for processing?

The female village chief couldn't answer, so she stretched out her hand to greet Samuel.

"Yes, what are your orders?" Samuel thought for a while, but couldn't answer, so he immediately waved his men over, and after listening to the whispers, he replied, "Ninety percent of it has been processed. I'm sorry that I couldn't answer right away.

, because Miss Tongen has always been in charge."

According to Samuel, the ore you brought from the mine contains a lot of diamonds necessary for resurrection. If the corpse is well preserved, these diamonds can resurrect four people.

Why hold a funeral instead of a resurrection ceremony?──This question stopped Samuel and the female village chief, and they looked at each other.

"Well, it's not worth it?" Samuel tilted his head and murmured, "Although it sounds cruel, isn't birth, old age, sickness and death normal in the world? I am a half-elf, and I have lived for decades, and my relatives and friends around me have not

Half a person is resurrected. If you ask me why I am not resurrected...I'm sorry, I don't know how to answer at the moment."

The female village chief thought for a while: "That's right, President. Firstly, the cost of resurrection is too expensive. Secondly, all resurrections need to be approved by the temple. Thirdly, diamonds are required, not gold coins. The Adventurer's Guild

It is a very special existence. I think you can already see this from the fact that Julianne can cast healing spells at will for free: the Adventurer's Guild has law enforcement power second only to the Guards, and has the most power second only to the Temple.

There is no need to mention privileges such as treatment rights and raising dangerous monsters. Therefore, the establishment of the Adventurer's Guild has always been extremely sensitive to the big shots. If there are too many people, no one can tell what the guild will rule.

Are they adventurers or private armies? Are the dangerous monsters they raise familiars or demons? Are the staff they hire working or are they just nepotists who enjoy the privilege of treatment or resurrection?"

The death of the three presidents was absolutely no accident. Privileges and risks coexist.

You cannot resurrect the guard captain and deputy who died while defending the camp without authorization, because they are not adventurers. Even if your application to the temple is successful, only resurrecting them would be unfair to other guards, and resurrecting them all would be unfair to Aneurin who fights side by side.

The count's soldiers are even more unfair. Resurrecting all forty people is a sky-high price, and the temple will never agree. No matter who holds the diamond, it is also a limited non-renewable resource in this world, and should be reserved for more important figures.

So during the war, apart from occasionally resurrecting the general...

What are you going to do?

A. Resurrect the guard captain. Remember, he will have two negative levels and will be very weak and unable to continue to do his job.

B, Resurrection of the guard captain and deputy.

C. To resurrect all the guards, you will most likely need the help of the dark streets of the ancient city to smuggle enough diamonds, at least 500 gold per person because the actual cost of smuggling will definitely be high. There are too many of these soldiers, and it is impossible to get negative level treatment.

D. To resurrect all the guards and Earl Aneurin's soldiers, you will not only need to use the black streets of the ancient city, but also the assistance of the black streets of the bay. In the end, it is very likely that you will lose both men and money.

E. Pray that they rest in peace.

No one in history would resurrect those fallen minions, not just because of the loss. But strictly speaking, you do have the ability to do so.

Among the crowd, several law enforcement teams are secretly watching you. As long as you are brave enough, you will always find a way to resurrect anyone you want. No matter what you plan to do, the funeral is currently being held in a solemn atmosphere, and it is impossible to stop it immediately.

"Did you see a round high platform on your way here?" the female village chief whispered, "Generally, a statue should be built for the martyrs who died heroically, so I made the base of the statue first, just in case you don't

It doesn’t matter if you approve it, I will send people to tear it down. Please tell me, what kind of statue should we build for the sacrificed guard captain? Because he was the first martyr to die while defending the territory, and it has a strong weathervane significance."

wind vane?

"Yes. From now on, the guards and even your army will think of this statue whenever they need to fight to the death, and then judge whether they will be taken seriously - this involves "disability retirement", "survivors' treatment", "leave behind"

Although no one wants to die in battle, they will more or less consider their own affairs before going to war."

1. Pure gold statue, 2000 gold.

2. Gold-plated statue, 500 gold.
