Chapter 789 New Year's Party (Part 1)
It's dark in Dawn City.
unconsciously.
The time has come to the end of the year.
In the year 997 of the New Hui Calendar, we have already put on our coats and packed our bags, and the Divine Advent Day in the year 998 is about to come and knock on the door.
In this era of the New Radiance Era, the New Year represents the day when Navarre, the god of Radiance, comes into the world.
In order to commemorate His coming, mortals used His appearance to mark the arrival of a new era.
The Glorious Church of God held various celebrations in these days, serving Holy Communion, providing relief to the poor, free healing, distributing holy water, and large-scale prayer and offering ceremonies.
It has gradually become a custom to have an all-night party on New Year's Eve. People will spontaneously bring various small gifts, snacks, dried fruits and other things to familiar pubs to have a few drinks with close or unfamiliar friends. Welcome the arrival of dawn, and then go together to the ceremony venue selected by the Glow God Religion to participate in the activities organized by the church.
In previous years, church commemorative activities were basically arranged in Ceylon City.
This year there have been some changes.
Captain Griffin, who was temporarily acting as the bishop of Ceylon, adapted to the current situation and set the venue for the event near Auroville.
Two reasons.
First, there are more people in Auroville.
Secondly, the most important thing is that there is a group of believers in the Qiuzhi Church who have clear ideas and great courage!
Towards the end of the year, several idea kings emerged.
"We can also use the divine magic of the God of Glow, those offerings ceremonies held at New Year's celebrations, etc., as well as the Holy Communion, free treatment, and holy water. It seems that we... can also do it?"
"There are two divine spells that must be presented with corresponding sacrifices during this ceremony to be granted."
"Those who join the Glow Divine Cult organization may not be qualified to offer sacrifices, and the quota may not be our turn."
"Otherwise we can organize one ourselves!"
The Dizi King took the lead in causing trouble.
The action ability of the believers who seek knowledge is terrifyingly high.
In less than half a month, they really put on a decent replica of the Glow Celebration Ceremony outside Dawn City!
The altar, supplies, and materials needed for the festival are all available!
Because they had secured the sponsorship of the generous gnome Hugo Seavey, the scale was even higher than those usually held in Ceylon City!
When Commander Griffin heard the news, everyone was numb!
With the Glow God's current attraction and appeal in the Ceylon region, he really doesn't have the confidence to stop the achievements of the Idea Kings.
After all, the Glow God Religion in most of Ceylon now also relies on the help of believers who are practicing the priest profession among the believers who seek knowledge!
Nowadays, they only occupy a nominal "orthodoxy".
Practically speaking.
It's the same with or without them.
If it's just about maintaining regional stability, investigating and eradicating cultists, purifying contaminated items, providing treatment to people, etc., the glow priests among the knowledge-seeking believers can do the same, or even do better.
Griffin really had no choice.
He had no choice but to use the most classic trick:
If you can't beat it, join!
First, he contacted the group of knowledge-seeking believers who were full of action and agreed on cooperation.
Then they urgently announced that the location of their New Year Celebration Ceremony in 998 of the New Hui Calendar would be rescheduled to be near Auroville City!
Climb onto the venue prepared by the believers who seek knowledge, and both parties hold a celebration together!
Because the New Year's celebration was moved to Auroville, every pub and restaurant in the city was naturally packed on New Year's Eve!
This new and huge city already has abundant population support.
Under the siphon effect, people in the surrounding areas will take the initiative to go to Dawn City if they want to pursue a better life.
The effect of replacing the traditional kingdom currency with destiny points is now gradually showing.
The gap between rich and poor has been narrowed.
Even workers who move bricks and build walls in the city can now take out a small amount of change and go to the pub to order a farmer's stew or a large piece of grilled pork chop that is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. With unlimited refills, you can drink as much cheap beer as you want!
Not to mention that various pubs also took advantage of this annual opportunity to advertise promotions.
On the Temple of Truth, you can see a lot of propaganda with just a swipe.

The lights in the "Lori Bar Suo" tavern were brightly lit at the moment. The [Lighting Technique] light balls made by discrete magic devices lit up every corner of the room. The warm flames in the fireplace licked the warm atmosphere that was gradually rising.
The owner of this tavern is a native of Ceylon named Solo.
He has many of the classic appearance features of the people from the east of the Kingdom of Reyak.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
He has thick hands and long legs, a strong body, thick eyebrows, big eyes, brown hair and brown eyes.
What makes Solo proud is that he made the best decision in his life a few months ago!
At that time, he was still an unlucky guy struggling in a refugee slum, making a living by picking up garbage and doing odd jobs, because the village where his old house was located was invaded by monsters and no one could live in it for several years.
He stayed in the refugee camp for more than half a year, with no chance of leaving.
Later, inspired and tempted by a group of refugee friends who had returned, he plucked up the courage to go to the Dark Forest with them, dedicated his faith to the God of Knowledge, and became one of His early believers.
Now, his courage and firm belief have brought him rich rewards.
Solo's life is back on track, and it's better than before!
He never dared to think before that he could own a tavern in the city that belongs to him completely!
But that's the reality!
Solo doesn't have any exclusive secret recipes or brewing secrets. The only advantage is probably that he has a good personality and temper, and he can find topics to talk about with anyone he meets, even strangers. He can quickly get familiar with them.
Of course, he is sometimes teased by familiar friends, saying that he talks a lot and never ends.
Relying on this popularity, he simply opened this tavern, calling on friends he knows, familiar or unfamiliar, and asking them to come to the tavern in their spare time. He can chat and brag with them at any time.
Although Solo himself is not good at cooking.
But he can recruit and hire people who know these skills!
Anyway, he knows enough friends and has a wide range of ways!
For example, he once happened to meet a man named Wendil in Xiwei Territory. Solo became familiar with him in just a few words.
A few days ago, through Wendil's introduction, he met two brothers from the Marquis of Nochima Territory. They had just moved to Dawn City and were in need of a job!
After tasting the secret grilled chicken steak made by the two men, Solo made a decision on the spot and hired them!
Facts have proved that he has a good eye.
The two brothers surnamed von Braun worked quickly and well, and the grilled chicken steaks were even more popular after being coated with their secret sauce.
The Lolibaso Tavern has become a hit since then.
On New Year's Eve, the popularity here is even more lively.
