Cthulhu Gonfalon

Dal Baron collar?

When I was awkward, I remembered this place.

It was a relatively remote territory. Yuxiong originally intended to use it as an experimental place, and the "European prince" Kabbalah, who was the best at summoning the gods in the church, was sent to the main sacrifice.

According to his thoughts, the local lords belong to the evil camp and will certainly clashed with Kabala in the good camp. By the time Karab will inevitably summon God to help, he can prove God's help to these middle-level priests through practice.

Moreover, you can also use this to see what God can use. By the way, try God to advance and so on... In short, there are many things that can be studied and tried.

However, even if it is a god, there is no way to do everything. Although the design is very good, the development of the matter is different from what he expected. Or, the practice of the Dal Baron is exactly the opposite of his expectations.

According to his plan, the Dal Baron must not be able to endure the help and organization of the Void Mask Church for the poor, and sooner or later it will have a serious conflict with the Void Mask Church. But after actually witnessing the fighting power of the Void Mask Church, the Dal Baron almost gave up the intention of confrontation with force. After all, even if the poor people in the territory became strong, it was not easy to control, nothing more than nothing. It’s not worth the risk of losing troops because of the money or the cannon fodder.

How much is the value of the poor? As long as he dies on a dozen elite soldiers, he will be more valuable than the poor people in the entire city of Dar!

With such an idea, the Dal Baron began to repair the Void Mask Church. It was not long before, as the conflict between the merchants and the nobility became more and more fierce, the Dal Baron was caught in a dilemma. The Baron Dahl did not want to join the merchants, nor did he want to join the aristocratic faction. In the end, he succumbed to the virtual masked church and started a small autonomous region.

He said that he is also a monk. He knows that it takes a lot of hardships to rely on the Void Mask Church, and he has to lose a lot of benefits. However, in order to escape the wave of merchants and aristocrats, he would rather suffer and lose money. In order to complete the sinful ritual, he sent a half of his life. If the healing ritual of the Kabala sacred offering was too hard, he was afraid to die in the atonement ceremony.

But he also relied on his own determination to let Yuxiong see his sincerity. Therefore, Xiong Xiong changed his mind and lowered his blessing and shelter for Dahl’s collar.

Thanks to the refuge of Yuxiong, Daling successfully escaped from the abundance of the aristocracy and the merchants that almost developed into a war. At present, it is changing the policy of low-key development and living safely.

Probably because of too low-key, Yuxiong even gradually forgot this territory. If it wasn’t for Leon’s reminder, he didn’t even think of Darling.

So he rushed to Dal, and arrived in the destination in just a few hours.

Winter has reached the coldest season, and the climate of Dar's collar is relatively cold in this area. Now the entire territory is almost covered with snow.

The Kabala main sacrifice is sitting in the reception room of the Baron's Mansion, and talks with the Dal Baron alone.

The burning firewood keeps the minimum warmth inside the house through the fireplace. Although it is not like other noble houses, it can be worn in a single coat, but at least it won't feel the cold.

Kabbalah holds the grass tea, but does not mean to drink tea, just quietly thinking.

Opposite him, the Dal Baron is also thinking. At present, the two people with the highest status in Darwin are like two statues, and they are motionless.

After a while, the Dal Baron sighed and said: "Things... it's hard to do!"

"I know." Kabbah said, "If I can do it, I will not come to you."

“Warming is a big problem, and I know this. But to let the poor people survive the cold, they need a lot of fuel anyway. We don’t produce coal here, we can only use firewood. If we cut down a lot of wood, it means There will be conflicts with the Druids in the forest..." The Dal Baron shook his head gently. "With our strength, even if we can win them, the loss will be great. It is not worth it."

"For the sake of human life, nothing is worth it." Kabala advised.

"The lives of the poor are life, and the lives of the soldiers are also life." The Baron Dahl said sincerely, "The Kabala main sacrifice, I will not tell you the empty talk, the soldiers are very expensive to choose and train. They have always been loyal and brave, and they are the reliance of my ruling territory. I can't take their lives to risk in order to help the poor to keep out the cold."

The Kabala main offering frowned and said, "But isn't the soldier there to protect the people? If the soldiers don't protect the people, what is the value of their existence?"

"It is true to say this, but can I tell them that 'poor people need firewood to keep out the cold, they need a lot of trees, but there are druids in the forest, you can deal with druids, let them cut trees.' ...does this? They will not agree to it!"

Kabala was silent. After a while, he sighed: "Where did the druids come from!"

This is not a question, just a feeling.

Since the fall of last year, the Druid has appeared in the forest near the Baron of Dar. They are not the common sects that emphasize the natural balance between man and nature, but rather the more radical sects that maintain nature and believe that people should return to nature.

This sect protects the natural ecology unprincipledly, and strictly prohibits all acts that destroy nature. This includes, but is not limited to, the development of wasteland, the cutting of trees, the development of roads in forests, and so on. In the past few months, they have already handed over several hands with Dar's adventurers. Although they have not lost their lives, they have suffered a lot.

In this case, even if the weather is cold, the civilians do not dare to cut trees in the forest, so as not to be attacked by them.

For ordinary civilians, if you don't cut trees, you can also rely on buying coal for heating, or simply save wood, and wear it thicker. But the poor can neither afford coal nor thick clothes to wear. If they don't get enough firewood for heating, this winter doesn't know how many people are going to freeze!

The Kabbalah Lord's sacrifice certainly cannot allow this cruel thing to happen under his own eyes, so he took the priesthood to negotiate with the Druid.

The result of the negotiations was clear, so he came to the Lord's Office to visit, and hoped that the Baron Dahl sent troops to assist himself and "convinced" the group of Druids so that the poor could not survive this winter.

However, the Dal Baron did not want to send troops. Although he was also a believer in the Void Mask Church, he really could not bear to lose power for this kind of thing.

In this regard, Kabala's main sacrifice is also no way. The so-called kindness means that people can sacrifice their own interests when they need them, but it does not include sacrificing the interests of others.

He is a good man, so he can't convince himself to force Dar's Baron to send troops.

So things are in a deadlock. Today is the third day of their discussion. Even though the Void Mask Church is no longer allocating, the firewood in the slum reserves has been used almost the same - this is still the baron’s firewood stored in the mansion. A lot of results after the relief of the poor.

At this point, the Kabala main sacrifice was also very helpless. Just when he wondered if he was going to find the merchants in the territory to fight the autumn wind, he suddenly heard the words from the bottom of his heart.

The words were deep and deep, with a sense of sacredness that made him extremely happy.

[Don't worry, I am coming. 】
