Chapter 112 The rich and powerful Modo City!
Perhaps it was because Sauron agreed to their request.
Several goddesses all seemed in a good mood. After all, Soren was a guest from afar. The goddess of agriculture thought for a moment and decided to hold a banquet to entertain him. It is very easy for the gods to hold a banquet, and there is no need to bother those mortals. As the goddess of agriculture patted her hands gently, a group of cute flower spirits flew out from the lush woods in front of her. They only slapped and defecated like small fairies. These flower spirits brought honey fruits. The goddess of river picked up the conch and looked at her.
As soon as the river blows, more than a dozen beautiful and charming water spirits came out. They carried plates made of beautiful shells, and there were all kinds of aquatic products. The goddess of spring water **** gently tapped on the ground with her snow-white toes, and immediately a clear and sweet spring water was used, automatically forming a small fountain, and colorful brilliance appeared under the sunlight. The goddess of the new buds attracted a large group of beautiful birds, and they played a music with various chirping sounds.
Sauron was a little stunned.
In fact, although he was the master of Modo City and a god of medium power, he had never experienced the enjoyment of the god level several times.
Many princes and nobles live much more luxurious than him. As for using divine power to hold banquets, he has never studied a similar spell. Looking at the extremely skillful movements of several goddesses, it seems that everything is so natural. Obviously, it is not the first time these goddesses have cast similar spells.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with the rumors. The gods in this world are really good at enjoying life.
It is said that some gods have also developed the "banquet technique". They only need to cast a spell of six or seven rings to automatically create a large amount of fine wine, food, seats, and even a garden square out of thin air. Sauron felt that if he had time, he should learn the "variant dimension mansion technique".
……………………
A banquet did not delay Sauron for too long.
The goddess of agriculture was a relatively powerful activist. In the afternoon of the same day, the goddess of agriculture conveyed the oracle to the church, and then many pastors and druids in the entire southern principality were summoned. The goddess of agriculture had a large number of pastors and agricultural druids, who were good at cultivating plants and were experienced gardeners and farmers. These people originally served many nobles and merchants, while some of them were the owners of the manor. Under the oracle of the goddess of agriculture, many pastors and druids who were consultants of the nobles came to the Harvest City, and then began to go to the Wind Spear Hills under the arrangement of the church.
Believers who serve devoutly will not violate the oracle, so hundreds of druids and priests set off on that day alone.
At this time, the nobles of the Southern Principality quickly received the news, and they couldn't sit still after hearing this news. Their harvest was entirely due to the help of these priests. Now many priests have left the manor, and they are a little worried whether the goddess of agriculture is dissatisfied with them. So they intend to pay a certain price to keep the priests and druids, but they were soon rejected, because the covenant of the gods is not a joke. Since the goddess of agriculture agreed to Sauron's request, it would be useless even if these people were willing to pay a greater price.
Wind spear hills, maple city.
A portal glow emerged.
The first one to come out was a mature and elegant priest with a white robe with the emblem of the goddess of agriculture on her chest, an archbishop of legendary rank.
The person responsible for receiving her was Adele Isabella, and behind her was another noble woman with a somewhat similar face to her. Adele nodded slightly to the Archbishop in front of her and said friendly: "My lord has arranged everything. Please come with me. We have arranged a temporary residence for you in the lord's mansion."
"The temple is under construction and will be completed in about a week."
The first batch of priests had a total of twelve people, all of whom were high-level priests, led by an archbishop. Then there were three other independent druids. The priests of the goddess of agriculture had many part-time druids, all of whom were experts in controlling plants.
The Archbishop smiled and nodded, "No hurry. Can you take us around?"
Adele Isabella smiled and said, "There is no problem. Let's go to the temple area first."
The purpose of the Archbishop is very simple. She needs to see the sincerity of Modo City and the strength of Modo City. Although the goddess agreed to the Shadow Lord's cooperation, the specific trial progress, and how many pastors need to be sent to see the actual situation, a church has its own rules for its operation. Unless the value here is very amazing, she does not advocate the large number of pastors from the Southern Principality to the Wind Spear Hills.
Temple District.
As a city that is not too big, there are only a few temples in the temple area of Maple City, and they are all transformed. The most obvious one is the temple dominated by Shadow, then the temple of his god-beating girl, and then the temple of the Goddess of Wealth. Other temples have not been seen. The temple is currently being built. The temple of the Goddess of Agriculture is a group of semi-elves, including the figures of witches. They are responsible for manipulating more than 20 clay golems, and most of the physical labor is completed. The main body of the temple is completed by white marble. Currently, only a building frame has been completed. There are many open spaces nearby that have not been transformed.
"This temple covers an area of 5,000 square meters, and currently one-third of it is used."
Adele smiled and introduced to the group of priests behind him: "We are only responsible for the framework of the main body. You still need to complete the specific arrangement and transformation of the temple yourself. After all, the characteristics of each temple are different."
The Archbishop looked at everything in surprise.
Just by looking at it, she knew that the temple was expensive, and the marble alone cost a lot. Even in the southern principality, such a temple needs at least one or more priests to preside over it.
After watching for a while, she frowned.
She felt that it was necessary to mobilize people to come over quickly, because the temples built by these half-elves did not conform to the beauty of the goddess of agriculture, and there was no harmonious beauty that was naturally balanced with people. She said a few words to a druid behind her, and then said to Adele: "Since this is the temple serving my Lord, it is best that we send someone to help."
"This is Master Kaarli. He knows how to arrange this temple. You have built a lot, but some places do not meet the preferences of our Lord."
The characteristic of Modo City is its grandeur.
Therefore, the specifications for building the temple are also based on this, but the temple of the goddess of agriculture is very exquisite. The Archbishop thinks that people should be sent to participate in advance, otherwise it will be too troublesome to transform it.
"No problem." Adele smiled.
Immediately afterwards, she took the group of people to the commercial and residential areas, and finally came to the refugee shed at the outer door, where a large number of refugees had gathered.
"at present."
Adele pointed to the refugee shed in front of him and said, "We have accepted about 6,000 refugees, all of whom are from families, so it is easier to manage. These people will be used to reclaim land, and all the tools and seeds are provided by Modo City. But they need you to send people to manage and teach."
"There are a lot of wasteland nearby, and you should be able to be self-sufficient and self-sufficient as long as you reclaim it next year."
"According to our calculations, the city can expand to a scale of 50,000 people. The current population is more than 18,000, so we can still accept about 32,000 refugees."
A city with a population of 50,000.
The Archbishop looked at each other with a look of surprise, because the other cities were about 30,000 people, and 50,000 people were considered big cities. The scale of Modo City can be counted as such, which means that they are very confident in the management of the city. Even in such a small city, they are confident of completing the material allocation and attack of 50,000 people. At the same time, the Archbishop also found that many places in the city were being renovated, the most obvious ones were sewers and ditches, and roads close to the market were being repaved.
“Huh?”
The Archbishop observed the surroundings and suddenly said, "Why are there gray dwarfs here?"
Not far away, there was a place where the blacksmith shop was in the middle of the distance. About a dozen gray dwarves were busy. They worked while drinking, and often knocked on them and took a kettle and took a bite.
Adele smiled and said, "These are residents of Modo."
"They are blacksmiths who are good at forging. They are currently building the farm tools for the refugees. In the future, the weapons of the city guards will be provided by them. These gray dwarves will not live in this city. After completing these tasks, they will return to Modo."
"after all."
Speaking of this, Adele smiled and said, "This kind of excellent blacksmith is also relatively intimate in Modo City."
The grey dwarfs forged all the fine irons.
Modo City seemed to have a lot of steel resources. The Archbishop just glanced and found that the quality of these agricultural tools was very good, most of which were steel rather than pig iron. A priest picked up his weapon and looked at it, and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's indeed a fine product!"
The gray dwarf doesn't like to deal with outsiders.
The bearded gray dwarf just snorted when he heard this, looking as if he was natural, and then continued to work on his own affairs.
If it weren't for the great Shadow Lord's request, they wouldn't want to come to this broken place. There was no good wine or a large furnace here, which was much worse than Modo City.
"Fengcheng is expected to recruit an army of 3,000 people."
Adele glanced at the Archbishop in front of him and smiled: "It's an extraordinary time after all. So we hope that the Agricultural Church can also provide a certain amount of manpower. Of course, all weapons and equipment are provided by us."
One word.
Wealthy and powerful!
Every word Adele said was that Modo City was rich and powerful, as if she didn't care about this expenditure at all. In fact, she really didn't care, because Sauron's plan to lay out the bottomless abyss had begun to produce. A steady stream of steel and rare minerals were being imported from the bottomless abyss, and now this expenditure was just a drop in the bucket.
