Chapter 226: Territory without the Glorious God Cult
Before setting off, the adventurers had one last concern:
"Will the territory in the Dark Forest be polluted by the evil gods?"
"Is the pollution there serious? Are there monks from the Church of the God of Light to purify the pollution?"
Sam shook his head with a hint of weirdness:
"I can't say for sure about this question."
"The environment in Xiwei Territory is very safe. There is no pollution from the evil gods. I stayed there for one night, and the depression and dizziness after the pollution disappeared! Just like in the Kingdom of Reyak, there was no feeling of being invaded at all."
"But... I didn't find anyone from the Church of the God of Light in Xiwei Territory!"
Sam described what he saw and heard truthfully.
"I have seen quite a few Radiant Priests. For minor injuries, headaches, and fevers, there is a place called 'Clinic' over there. As long as you pay a few coins or something called destiny points, you can enjoy the priest's divine treatment."
An adventurer slapped his thigh and said, "Oh! I know!"
"It's the monastery hospital of the Radiant God! There is one outside Ceylon!"
"Then there are still people from the Radiant God!"
Sam corrected: "No, no, no."
"That's the problem."
"I asked the Radiant Priests in the clinic, and they told me that although they are willing to believe in the Radiant God and thank Him for the power He has given them, they are not people from the Radiant God!"
Adventurers: "Huh?"
In their impression, Radiant divine arts are almost bound to the Radiant God.
99% of professionals who have mastered relevant divine arts will join the Radiant God Church, either actively or passively.
After all, the welfare benefits of the Radiant God Church are good!
As long as you join the church, even the most ordinary and lowest-ranking priests will not have to worry about food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and their families can enjoy corresponding benefits.
Many places like monastery hospitals are only open to members of the Glowing God Church. Adventurers like them have no chance to get treatment even if they want to pay.
How can there be idiots who did not choose to join the Glowing God Church after being blessed by the Glowing God?
Not only did they not join the Glowing God Church, but they even came to a ghost place like the Dark Forest to open a "clinic"?
According to Sam, the clinic charges are very cheap?
For ordinary injuries, the treatment fee is only a few dozen coppers?
Damn it, what kind of paradise on earth is this territory, the kingdom of God on earth?
A tavern with 1 silver coin per night, bread with 20 copper coins, and even jam and broth. It is said that there is also stew. These are not enough, and there are even Glowing priests who provide affordable treatment services?
They think it's outrageous.
Apart from anything else, there are only two possibilities for a stable supply of various materials.
Either there are well-developed farmlands and animal sheds nearby, and the planting and breeding industries are completed on a large scale and in a systematic manner. All raw materials can be produced locally, and the corresponding processing technology must be mastered.
Or, it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to transport them from outside.
Not to mention where to buy such cheap food and supplies, just the problem of transportation routes.
There are always bandits who block the road and rob in the Kingdom of Reyak!
Transport things to the Dark Forest?
Aren’t you afraid of being wiped out by monsters?
The adventurers thought about it again.
Oh.
Sam said that there are so many mages in the place called Xiwei Territory. A worker who builds a house on the roadside may be a mage. Magic is not worth anything there.
If you imagine it this way, maybe it makes sense?
The sources of information for the adventurers were basically bards and various gossips and hearsay. They had heard that the Star City on the edge of the Frostfire Plateau was a magical city where all the citizens were mages. Because there were various kinds of magic to assist life, the prices of various magic supplies there were ridiculously low.
During the monster red tide, the Star City would even rise hundreds of meters in the air to become a "floating city" under the effect of the floating magic circle drawn by the great mages to avoid the monsters sweeping the earth.
Could it be that a second Star City would appear in the Dark Forest?
All doubts and curiosity can only be known by going to the so-called West Wei Territory.
…
Knowing the approximate location, it is not difficult to find West Wei Territory.
It is near the Misty Valley!
Soon, the first group of brave adventurers, led by Sam, spent nearly two days and arrived at the "West Wei Territory" built by Hugo again.
It was morning when they set out from the border defense line.
It was already evening of the next day when they arrived.
While still on the road, the adventurers felt something was "wrong".
They were a little too safe on this journey.
In the past, entering the Dark Forest was full of dangers, and one had to be highly alert at all times.
No one knew when a monster would suddenly appear to attack. If they were hit in the vitals, in this place where no gods would respond and no monsters would come back, they could only consider how to wait for death with dignity.
This time, the journey was unusually peaceful!
The 4 shifts were specially arranged for night duty, but after a night, no monsters appeared that tried to attack under the cover of night.
When they saw the ten-meter-high stone wall described by Sam from a distance, some people even felt a little sleepy!
"Yawn--finally here!"
"Wait a minute! I... I was just sleepy in the Dark Forest?!"
When the adventurers realized this, they were shocked.
They used to stay in the Dark Forest for three days and three nights without sleeping, and they were so nervous that they didn't feel sleepy at all.
Only when they returned to the territory of the Kingdom of Reyak and realized that they were back to a safe place, they would feel tired all over, and even sleep for more than a whole day.
But when they saw the tall and solid walls of the West Wei Territory, they felt a sense of security and felt sleepy!
"There really is a wall! It looks so solid!"
"It seems that there are still people on guard, and the red light in the air seems to be the effect of [Lighting Arrow]!"
"Use [Lighting Arrow] to continuously detect stealth monsters? Is it so luxurious? It has to be released again every 2 hours!"
"Are there not a lot of rangers here besides mages?"
The adventurers were shocked before they officially stepped into the territory of the West Wei Territory.
The situation seemed to be even more exaggerated than what Sam had described to them.
Even Sam himself was a little stunned.
When he came back last time, there were no such things!
It had only been less than a week, why did it feel like this territory had become prosperous again?
Near the entrance of the city gate left by the city wall, the second round of shock followed.
A middle-aged woman with neat clothes set up a set of tables and chairs, with a polite smile on her face.
A dozen adventurers lined up in an orderly manner, registering something under her questioning.
…
