The Great Conqueror

Chapter 338: The Final Word (Part Three)

Talos, the shaman of Shenguang, has been maintaining an elegant and straight sitting posture. Hearing the man of divine grace yelling again, the corner of his mouth moved slightly, and his eyes swept across Sablanca's face like lightning.

What does this guy want?

Subaru's gray eyebrows moved slightly, but he was in a deep state of mind and could hold his breath without any expression, waiting for Shenen's final move.

"Arthur's ability and contribution are definitely not a problem. Such an outstanding talent must be favored by the beast god, and I don't doubt his piety," the high priest in red spoke eloquently, but suddenly changed the topic.

"The most critical question now is whether he can live up to this responsibility."

Can you afford it?

Few people would have thought that the chief priest in red in the Province of Divine Grace would actually ask such a question. Didn't he just say that he thinks Arthur's ability is fine? It's a bit contradictory.

As soon as this idea came up, the voice of the chief priest in red from Shenen came up again, asking further questions.

"Once such a talent becomes a priest, he will inevitably take on very important responsibilities. Ability is not a problem, but is there such a mature mentality to lead the overall situation?"

The voice paused. Seeing that everyone was thinking about it, the chief priest in red gave a fierce smile, met the eyes of the shaman Sablanca in front of him, and made a final conclusion loudly.

"Arthur has faith and talent, but his performance is just a personal excellence, and it cannot be seen that he can take on the heavy responsibility of a priest. And his age, experience, and time spent in the temple can't make people feel at ease about his work. What I want to say is that."

Wei Wei bowed to the four directions and sat down slowly.

In the entire conference hall, a needle could be heard.

sharp!

This really raises a very difficult question.

Priests are not like trainee priests. They really want to take on the job of the priesthood and operate as an important part of the temple machine. Moreover, with the attention and appreciation Arthur has received, he will be responsible for extremely important tasks in the future.

This requires the ability on the other hand, to be able to truly control local work, communicate with the people of the beast tribe, and promote a series of practical tasks such as the belief in beast gods. And in the process, there will inevitably be various problems.

Priests, as messengers and representatives of beast gods, are the front line facing the public, and can also be said to be the "face" at the lowest level of the temple. They have heavy responsibilities and cannot tolerate any mistakes.

Even Subaru was a little surprised by this question, and his calm face moved slightly.

This should be the last obstacle set by the Divine Grace Province. After passing, Arthur will have no problem turning into a full-time job.

If you can't make it through...then there's nothing to mention. The previous concessions were all turned into meat buns beating dogs, allowing the three major shamans to take advantage of it for nothing.

Subaru's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes swept over his opponent, the Rhine Sablanca with a deep temperament.

What a troublesome fellow!

...

"Brother Arthur."

Annie greeted Arthur very happily. After so long, brother Arthur finally finished his work. Nini is also sensible now, and knows that her brother is doing business, but now that she is done with her work, she can take her brother to play with her. Of course, in the absence of Subaru, Nini doesn't want to care about the difference between men and women!

Lu Yao also followed Arthur back to Subaru's mansion, but she was more worried about Arthur's physical condition. I heard that this time in the underground world of Kaisermeng, the opponents of the fighters who participated in the election were the 45th-level silver-eyed banshee.

Although everyone has been healed with the War Song of Healing before, for Arthur, of course, he has special treatment that is different from others.

"Okay, let's talk in the room first, I'm exhausted...I still need to change my clothes." The clothes on Zou Shengun's body were completely soaked by the ice lake water from the silver-eyed banshee's place.

"Hey, hasn't Master come back yet?" After walking a few steps, he remembered to ask.

Nini shook her head, and the servants beside her hurriedly said, "Priest Arthur will take a shower and change clothes to rest, the master may not come back until later after attending the meeting."

Zou Shengun nodded thoughtfully. It seems that in this selection competition, the big shamans are also fighting very tightly. The undercurrent under the calm will definitely have to fight to contain it before it will come to a result.

...

"Test it."

The chief priest in red at Ovilland stood up confidently on behalf of Subaru.

"Since everyone in the Divine Grace Province is worried about Arthur's ability, you can use a test to test it." If it weren't for the super-excellent promotion that required all the four shamans in the south to nod, even Owellan would not want to dump these proud benefactors.

Such a difficult problem is raised by the other party. There is no other way but to prove it through the test of actual work.

Subaru had already hinted to Owellan before, as a member of the same faction, of course he understood the subtle lingo. After Owellan finished speaking, he noticed from the corner of his eye that Subaru's expression did not change, and he acquiesced.

It seems that his performance this time should be able to add a point to Shaman Subaru. Based on Owellan's thinking, since the test was proposed, he naturally thought about the follow-up reaction of the other party, as well as some details of the content of the test.

He cleared his throat and was about to continue expressing his thoughts when suddenly, Tiger, the chief priest in red from the Province of Divine Grace who had sat down on the opposite side, stood up again and said, "The chief priest in red from Ovilland spoke very well. Since it is a test, it must be inconvenient to conduct it within Shenyao Province with the justice and strictness of Lord Subaru of Shenyao Province. I have a proposal here."

One sentence blocked all what Owellan wanted to say, and the tiger glanced at Owellan, whose face was a little downcast, and smiled, propping up the table with his right hand, with an imposing manner.

"In the northernmost part of our God's Grace Province, there is a city that is in contact with the barbarians in the northwest. It has been harassed and looted by those barbarians all year round. The people have suffered a lot, and their belief in the beast god has been minimized. Priest Arthur can choose that place for this test. If he can make some practical achievements and raise the people's belief in the beast god and our temple, his ability will be recognized."

In other words, after passing this level, Arthur will be able to successfully cross the hurdle of the trainee priest, and Sablanca, the shaman of the Divine Grace Province, will no longer have any problems.

It's just... the red-clothed chief priest in front of me laid countless ambushes in his words, and those who are familiar with the inside story of Shen'en Province despised him in their hearts.

The so-called city in contact with the barbarians in the northwest is naturally Duolan City, the most northwest border city in the Shenen Province.

The map of the Mengjia Empire basically occupies the center, while the Northwest Wilderness distinguishes between grassland and desert, like a moon shaped to connect with the empire.

The four northern provinces that face the greatest threat from the wilderness in the northwest are the four provinces in the north, especially the first-tier cities such as the border city of Ebony City, which not only face the wilderness, but are also connected to the land of the Windland. When the empire was at peace, border frictions never stopped.

History and the environment have created that although the culture, politics and economy of the north are not as good as those of the four southern provinces, the folk customs are tough, and they are used to producing masters and strong people.

This is why people in the northern provinces look down on southerners and often call them "soft-legged shrimp".

As for Duolan City, as one of the few cities in the south bordering the wilderness, it was indeed in a miserable state. First of all, the armed forces in the southern provinces are indeed a little weaker than those in the northern provinces. But barbarians are not stupid, and they understand the principle of picking soft persimmons and pinching them.

So every time those barbarians in the wilderness didn't have enough food, or wanted to vent their energy, it was almost inevitable to wreak havoc on the southern border. And Duolan City, as a prominent one, suffers from disasters almost every year.

Every year, the grasslands are green and yellow, and those barbarians come here without anything to do. They do everything from burning, looting, robbing money, food, and women.

The most hateful thing is that after the looting, they still don't forget to set a fire, burn all the things, and kill all the people, so as to reduce the resistance of the Mengjia border for the next looting.

People have low belief in temples and beast gods?

The priests of the temple and the city guards and the city officials have learned their lesson a long time ago. Every time the barbarians came to kill them, they didn't think about increasing the city defense or sending troops to repel the enemies after receiving the news, but packed up and fled immediately. After all, your own life is the most important thing, and it's not like you haven't fought before. As a result, all those who insisted on resisting were killed, and the combat effectiveness of the two sides was not comparable at all.

When the barbarians had killed and looted enough, they came back tremblingly, gathered those who fled, and continued to be their officials and priests. Of course, you have to wipe your ass for the disaster, and don't forget to make a high-sounding report and submit it.

Resisting to the death, fighting bloody battles, and finally killing the enemy are all overused.

But the people above are not fools, and positions such as the Imperial Storm Watcher are not just for show, everyone knows what's going on. It's just because the top people are busy fighting for power and checking each other, and a few small border cities are harassed, and the impact of grabbing something is not too big, so we can just muddle along.

In this context, when the barbarians came to the temple priests, all these people ran away, and no one would have a firm belief.

Where is the bravery of the beast god? Where is the protection for the people?

Believe you, believe your mother is hot!

The common people are very simple, if you can feed them and clothe them warmly, they will believe in you if they live a good life, otherwise it is all bullshit. Especially in the border Duolan City, where the situation is precarious at any time.

How easy is it to raise people's beliefs?

It can be said that the proposal of the Tigers definitely harbors evil intentions.

However, if Subaru wanted to help Arthur go further, he had to accept this trick.

Test, is Arthur still afraid of the test? For his disciple, Subaru is quite confident. The performance time after time also proved that he lived up to his expectations.

The test is also a kind of training and improvement. As long as this test is passed, Arthur will not have any problems in taking off. There will be a flat river ahead.

Seeing the calmness in Subaru's eyes, O'Weilan was a little surprised. This kind of problem is difficult even for him who has rich experience in governing. Doesn't Subaru Shaman worry about Arthur at all?

Or is it because of the shaman's strong self-confidence and courage? Can't lose momentum to his opponent Sablanca?

Retracting the thoughts in his heart, the chief priest in red at Ovillan took a breath, and was about to speak for Subaru, when he suddenly saw Subaru pat the table with his right hand, and returned to his opponent in the Divine Grace Province with a calm and calm voice.

"I accept the test you proposed on behalf of Arthur."

The final word.
