Chapter 426: The Architect's Old Story
Griffin's mentality collapsed.
He knew that he was not a true paladin.
There was a very rare type of paladin in the Radiant God Cult, and they would use a special divine art.
The condition for casting divine arts was to take an oath.
It was necessary to abide by doctrines such as justice and kindness, so that the corresponding powerful divine arts could be used.
If the oath was broken, the price would not only be that the corresponding divine arts could no longer be used, but also that the gods would punish them and the blessings would be directly taken back!
Therefore, the true sworn paladins could be absolutely trusted, and they were the real "saints".
Griffin did not have the courage and awareness to take an oath.
Although the paladin who took the oath would gain more powerful power, the oath would become an invisible strict shackle, constraining his every move at all times.
Griffin thought that he was not a bad person!
Although he was more noble and more important than ordinary people and could look down on them, Griffin felt that this was what he deserved.
Because every year when the monster red tide came, he really went up to fight the monsters to the death.
He was injured several times with broken arms and legs.
The most serious injury was that he almost died in the monster pile and couldn't come back.
It was only after the battle that the priests used magic to slowly nurse him back to health that he gradually recovered.
Since he made such a great contribution, it was reasonable for him to have a higher status and a better life.
At least, he still held on to some bottom lines.
For example, he didn't use the glow magic to make money.
He only took the part of the income he deserved.
He was greedy for other parts, but he quickly suppressed it.
The result... now it seems.
He is the only one who is a big victim!
The entire Ceylon region of the Glorious God is rotten from top to bottom.
"Where did this list come from? Is it reliable?"
Griffin asked slightly collapsed.
Rena spread his hands.
"This matter - it's a coincidence."
"I didn't expect the two things to be related."
...
Time goes back to when Ceylon Territory was shrouded in eternal night.
Reina did not follow the main forces of the "attack" on the Countess's castle. The reason for her absence from this event was that she was busy with another matter and could not get away.
According to the original plan.
The future expansion of Chim Town needs to ask architects to plan the blueprint first.
Ray Wayne, one of the members of the Church of Knowledge, said: He can't handle such a large amount of work alone, and he needs to go to Ceylon City to pack up other architects and bring them together to plan and design.
The problem is.
Ray Wayne and the architects in Ceylon City... had some conflicts.
This involves that old story.
The Ceylon City expansion plan was launched to alleviate the refugee problem at that time.
Before the expansion of Ceylon City, the Countess publicly recruited design plans from everyone, and the one that stood out was Ray Wayne's plan.
His colleagues also submitted their own ideas, but all of them were rejected.
Everyone competed fairly, based on their own abilities. If you were not selected, you were not as good as others.
No one said anything bad at that time, and many of Ray Wayne's colleagues came to congratulate him.
They even discussed with Ray Wayne whether they could also join in and participate in the planning of the blueprint for the expansion of the outer city.
In the profession of architects, everyone is proud of creating wonders. Within their own capabilities, the larger and more spectacular the things they designed and built are, the more they can prove the strength of the architect.
Ray Wayne rejected them all.
Because at that time, he felt that the expansion of the outer city and accommodating about a thousand refugees was easy to do.
With his brilliant talent, he didn't need to ask for help.
He could complete all the designs by himself!
He was indeed a genius, and he did it in the end.
He worked day and night and overtime to design, and he alone got the appearance of the outer city of Ceylon in his ideal.
The entire "perfect" plan was kept strictly confidential by Ray Wayne. Before starting the work, he only described the scene of his blueprint to the countess.
That was when Ray Wayne was at his most high-spirited.
A young genius, famous at a young age.
No matter who saw him, they would respectfully call him "Sir Wayne".
Countless businessmen waved their bills in their hands, trying to get closer to Ray Wayne, so that they could know the best location in advance and buy the land there during the expansion of Ceylon City.
Until the expansion project started.
Overnight, everything changed.
The craftsmen suddenly united their front and unanimously claimed that there was a problem with the design, the existing conditions were not suitable, and there was a big problem with Ray Wayne's design drawings.
They found various reasons and finally summed it up in one sentence:
They can't do this job.
Without the efforts of the craftsmen, Ray Wayne could not support himself.
There was no way, Ray Wayne at that time could only go back and find other architects.
He did not hesitate to take out the blueprint of the outer city that he had devoted his heart and soul to design, as well as the drawings of various new buildings.
He wanted to prove that there was no problem with his design through the voices of his friends in the same industry.
The development of the situation was far beyond Ray Wayne's expectations.
After looking at his drawings, his colleagues also said that there was something wrong!
But they did not say what exactly was wrong with the drawings.
No matter how Ray Wayne asked.
His colleagues just kept silent and said nothing.
They would only repeat over and over again: "There is a problem, give up Wayne, don't get involved in this matter anymore."
Ray Wayne became the unlucky guy abandoned by the industry and alienated by his peers.
His reputation plummeted.
The expansion plan of the outer city could not wait for anyone, and it had been delayed and not started, and the wages of the recruited craftsmen and laborers still had to be paid.
The withdrawal of the sponsorship of the Glorious God became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Ray Wayne's hair turned white overnight, and he was shunned by everyone and was considered a "fraudulent architect."
He could only hide in the refugee slum outside the city in autism.
Later, he was taken out of the refugee slum by Pete and others and joined the Church of Seeking Knowledge. During this period, Ray Wayne had verified his various "ideas" and "designs" in the new environment.
The result was successful!
His drawings were correct and completely feasible!
Back then - if the craftsmen had not gone on strike, there would have been no problems with the expansion plan of Ceylon City!
This old incident has become a thorn in Ray Wayne's heart.
Whenever he thinks of it, he still feels unwilling.
Ray Wayne can understand that the craftsmen opposed him.
They don't understand architectural design.
But the alienation of his peers at that time was the most unforgettable for Ray Wayne!
There was obviously nothing wrong with his design, why did they deny him!
After many years, he had another opportunity to meet his peers.
Although a long time has passed and Ray Wayne no longer intends to care about anything, he still wants to show his peers actual evidence and slap them in the face!
