Chapter 856 It's You?!(1/2)

After leaving the Eternal Church, Frank took his guards to the slums to visit John, the God-lovers of the Church of Life.

John, the God-loving man, seemed quite famous in the local area. No matter who Frank asked, everyone would show respectful expressions.

This made him more curious about John, the God-loving man.

Frank was no stranger to the Church of Life. When he eliminated the demons entrenched in the southern consular areas, he often fought side by side with the elves who believed in the Church of Life.

Those elves were different from the descriptions he saw from books since he was a child. They were brave and fearless, loved fighting and adventure, and were all born warriors.

However, although it is easy to fight, they unexpectedly have a warm and kind heart.

Frank often saw them enthusiastically helping civilians and were particularly friendly to the mercenaries who fought side by side with him.

It is also because of this, coupled with all the rumors about Maple Moon Freedom, that Frank was curious about the Church of Life and naturally developed a strong favor.

Therefore, he even asked the elves for a book called "The Book of Life" and read some doctrines.

Of course, favor is favor, and politics is politics.

Even though he was very curious about the Church of Life, Frank still clearly distinguished the two.

He always believed that if you want to change everything, you still have to start with the eternal church rooted in the human world.

However, Adam, the visit to God's favor, was rejected, and along the way he saw the inaction of the eternal church, the collusion between the fallen nobles and the church... A trace of shakenness finally appeared in his heart.

Even the gods of the church no longer pay attention to the common people, and only the nobles can visit him. He really doesn't know whether this eternal church that once represented light and justice can still bring hope to the world...

With a feeling of loss, Frank came down to the slums under the guidance.

However, when he entered the slums, he was slightly stunned.

Frank has not been in a slum.

In his impression, slums often represent dirty and messy.

The smell is foul and the order is in no order, people's eyes are empty and ragged...

However, the scene in front of him was far beyond his expectations.

“It’s really a slum?”

Looking at the renovated buildings in front of you and the well-organized and clean streets, Frank couldn't help asking.

"King, this is the slum of Larona."

The guide replied proudly.

"Lying! We are not the nobles who have never seen slums. It is reasonable to say that this is a civilian area in the inner city. How could it be a slum in such a clean place?"

The personal guard Roland frowned and said unhappily.

"No... Lord Knight, Larona's slum was not like this a few months ago. It was all done by Lord John and his elf friends..."

The guide quickly explained.

"John? Elf?"

Frank raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, Lord John said that change should start with your side and start with little things, as the first appendix to the Holy Book of Life, "Life, Rights and Struggle" says: How can one sweep the world without a single house!"

"If you can't even change the environment you are in, how can you change the world? How can you chase hope?"

"Opportunities are always left to those who are prepared. Light and hope will not come by themselves, but will pursue them with their own will..."

"The first thing to do is to change your mental outlook! Let your life be revitalized and energetic!"

"It is also because of this... Master John led everyone to renovate the slums..."

"Well... I also have to thank the elves. It is said that many of them are also admirers of Lord John. They follow Lord John and preach the faith of life. It is them who use magical magic to improve everyone's living environment under the command of Lord John."

The guide said with a gaze, his expression full of respect for John, the favored God, and his praise for the teachings of life.

Seeing him like this, Frank couldn't help asking:

"Are you a believer in life?"

The guide nodded and said proudly:

"Return to the Knights, as early as the first day when Lord John came to La Rona, I became a believer in life. Not only that, our family also became a believer in life!"

Hearing this, Frank's heart moved:

"You live in a slum?"

"Yes."

The wizard nodded.

Frank's expression changed completely.

Now, he was really surprised.

If he remembered correctly, most of the residents of the slums had been living in a daze. As a person who was forgotten by the city and the nobles, their status was not even much higher than that of the slaves in the black market.

There is no hope, no future, and it is even possible to be killed by guards and robbers who vent their lives at any time, or be involved in the struggle of the gangsters and die in a life of death...

Even Frank was not optimistic about them at all.

He knew that the empire was sick now, and if he wanted to overthrow this corrupt country, he needed to get the support of the people.

However, the people he is optimistic about actually refer to those civilians who have received more or less certain education...

This is a point to mention that although the world of Seges is similar to the late Middle Ages on Blue Star, because of the existence of magic, the world's knowledge and literacy rate are far higher than that of Blue Star in similar periods.

Of course, most ordinary people are difficult to access when it comes to knowledge of extraordinary powers such as magic and martial arts.

For example, civilians with basic education can account for one-fifth of the empire's population.

Although one-fifth seems to be very small, their composition is very important.

Among them are mainly surplus free people, businessmen, rich peasants and professionals.

Especially for professionals, most of the low-level professions in the entire empire are civilians, while low-level professions account for more than 80% of all professions.

In other words, low-level professions are the cornerstone of extraordinary power, and the common people are the cornerstone of low-level professions.

At present, the magic power of the Seges world has improved, and professionals have ushered in an explosion period. The most obvious floating strength is this class.

In Frank's view, if this force can be integrated, he will have the ability to shake the rule of the nobles.

On the other hand, he was not optimistic about the poor and farmers who occupied nearly 80% of the population of the entire empire.

They have little education and rarely have professionals.

Their physique is generally weak due to malnutrition. Even if they have hidden talents, it is difficult to rely on their own awakening power at the moment when magic power is revived.

Not only that, because their mental power is often weak, in most cases, the quality of faith is also low. Even the eternal church gradually ignores them as the church's strength continues to grow.

In the extraordinary world, they are the weakest people at the bottom.

The most common thing they look is to hide in ragged clothes in dangerous buildings that may collapse at any time, looking outside with a dull look.

However, the guide in front of him was completely different.

Although his clothes were covered with patches, they were washed clean, with bright eyes and full of color.

Although he is a little thin, his mental outlook is very sunny, completely different from the poor people Frank knows...

This is what Lord John did?

Is it brought by the Church of Life?

It took less than three months?

Frank's eyes changed.

As if he realized something, he quickly raised his head and looked into the slums, looking for the figures of the poor.

And when the poor living here came into his eyes, they showed faces full of hope and light like the guide.

Their eyes shone brightly.

Not only that, Frank was even shocked to see that there were actually a large number of professionals here!

However, their strength is not high, they should have just awakened.

However, this is already very shocking.

You should know that this is a slum, the place where the entire human world is the most difficult place to give birth to professionals. Even if it is a slave who is held by the nobles, the possibility of giving birth to professionals is far higher!

Clean streets, residents with smiles and hopes, one awakened professional after another...

If such a scene appeared in the civilian area of ​​the inner city, Frank was not surprised.

But this is a slum in the outer city!

Or...slums!

And this change may have only taken less than three months!

Three months! Only three months!

What can I do in three months?
To be continued...
