Chapter 962: Other intentions

"Woo woo..." Anna whimpered.

Because Gavin, who was beside her, was covering her mouth.

Gavin quickly sent her a message and warned her: "Don't mention your regeneration skills again, and don't treat Brown for free. It's not that I won't let you treat, but it needs to be done under my arrangement. Nod your head if you understand."

He really knows Anna's character too well.

To put it nicely, it's called kindness.

To put it bluntly, it's called the Virgin Mary.

Even if the Brown family had previously called her a demon priest and a demon illegitimate child, she would still use her regeneration necklace to help him treat for free.

After all, in her eyes, she didn't have any consumption.

But Gavin is not such a good person to talk to. The ancestors said, repaying grievances with virtue, how can you repay virtue?

Repaying grievances with justice and repaying virtue with virtue is the most correct way to deal with people.

Gavin has been instilling this concept in Anna all the time, but the effect is not very ideal. This is related to Anna's nature and the suffering god she believes in. He is the first Virgin Mary of Furen.

If you impose other people's suffering, whether good or bad, on yourself, what else can you do if not act like a saint?

Some people's suffering is indeed worthy of sympathy, but some people's is not.

"Woo woo..." Anna nodded, indicating that she understood.

Gavin slowly let it go this time.

Anna still respected Gavin's opinion as always.

She knew the reason very well and decided to obey his arrangement.

Because she knew that Gavin was a gentle and kind person, and would not really sit idly by, but just teach Little Brown's family a small lesson, let them correct their attitude towards themselves first, and then treat him to clear their names.

Anna saluted Marina a little awkwardly and said, "High Priest, how are you? I wonder if you have received the letter and gift I sent you before?"

This halfling high priest is Anna's teacher.

The Halfling Priestess Marina did not reply directly, but looked Anna up and down, with an undisguised surprise in her eyes, which became stronger and stronger, and finally said in disbelief: "You are already an extraordinary priest? What have you done in the past year and a half? Did you kill a dragon?"

No wonder she was so surprised, because her student had already surpassed her professional level.

The equipment on her body was something she could hardly hope for in her entire life.

The priest's cloak with the Nestu camouflage aura on Anna's body, which covered the magical aura, could hide it from ordinary people, but it could not hide it from Marina who was interested in exploring.

"Extraordinary priest? You mean little Anna? How is this possible? She has only been a priest for a few days?"

"Do you think that Priestess Marina looks like she is joking?"

"No, could it be that little Anna has really become a powerful extraordinary priest?"

The Green Nest villagers who were watching the excitement around them also looked in disbelief.

For a small town like theirs, every extraordinary professional is a powerful existence that needs to be looked up to and respected.

Because these extraordinary professionals are the foundation of their foothold in the wilderness, and it is they who make those monsters dare not easily invade here.

"This is a long story, I will slowly tell the chief priest later." Anna is not the little white flower a year and a half ago, who knows nothing, and many things are not suitable to be said in public.

"Okay, it happens that I have a lot of things to ask you." The halfling priest is also a smart person, and he quickly restrained his emotions, "Do the Carbon couple know that you are back?"

"I don't know yet." Anna responded with guilt and apology.

"Then you go back to see them first. In the past year or so, they don't know how much they worry about you..."

Before the halfling priest finished speaking, there was a noise in the crowd again.

"Is Anna really back!"

"Is it really our little Anna?"

The crowd automatically parted, revealing a pair of middle-aged men and women.

The woman's eyebrows and eyes are similar to Anna. She is holding a baby in her arms, and behind her is a timid half-grown girl and a little boy with a runny nose.

"It's really Anna, it's really our Anna who's back!"

"Anna, it's really my Anna!"

The middle-aged woman rushed up and hugged Anna, tears pouring out uncontrollably.

I don't know if it was hurt by the squeezing or influenced by her mother, the baby in her arms also burst into tears.

The scene was in chaos for a while.

Anna, who was not good at expressing her feelings, could only cry with her mother and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, I should have come back earlier, I should have come back earlier, it's all my selfishness..."

"It's good to come back! It's good to come back! It's good to come back!" Mrs. Carbone did not mean to blame Anna, but just kept repeating.

For them, seeing Anna again was already a loss and recovery.

After all, in a world full of dangers, once you leave your home, the chance of the two sides meeting again is less than half.

Even if they are not separated forever, they will be blocked by a long and difficult road.

Although Anna had been sending letters home through the caravan for the past year and a half, and even sent back some valuable daily necessities.

But she didn't reveal too much about her situation, so they couldn't help but think too much.

But they had a family to take with them, and they couldn't go looking for Anna.

But the more this happened, the more guilty Anna felt.

Compared to her parents' selfless love, she was much more selfish. She only considered the difficulties and accusations she would face when she came back, but never considered their feelings.

She has a kind nature. Even though the healing spells have side effects, her temperament is still stable and she has no complaints. Her harmonious and loving family is indispensable.

"Let's go home." Compared to Mrs. Carbon, Mr. Carbon's mood was obviously much more stable. He was also wearing a priest's robe and the holy symbol of the God of Passion.

Anna is of family origin.

But this is normal. The most primitive units of most religions in Faerûn are not churches and monasteries, but families.

When pastors preach, they usually start with the people closest to them, and children are most easily influenced by their parents.

The more severe the teachings of those gods, the more obvious this situation is.

"Yes, yes, yes, let's go home! Let's go home! Let's go home!" Mrs. Kara held the baby in her arms to Anna and said, "Look, this is your new brother Neo. When you left, I I just got pregnant with him, look, he is so big now..."

"Wait, wait, wait..." The Browns were unwilling to let Anna go so easily. They looked at Anna as if they were holding on to the last life-saving straw and said, "You just said you can cast regeneration. What means?"

"This..." Anna's eyes drifted to Gavin involuntarily, with a look of embarrassment on her face.

She was not good at lying and didn't like lying, but she agreed to Gavin.

"Miss Anna is the chief healer of our territory. She is in charge of hundreds of excellent priests and thousands of doctors. Naturally, she masters the regeneration technique." Gavin took the initiative and introduced Anna's identity to them with a proud look on his face.

At this time, everyone noticed the ordinary-looking young man who had been following Anna.

When Gavin approached Green Nest Town, he took the initiative to use super transformation and changed his appearance.

Firstly, his charm value is too high and his appearance is not bad. If he doesn't suppress it, he will probably take away all Anna's brilliance. She is today's protagonist.

Secondly, he is now a celebrity regardless of age, especially since the Giant Plains is not very far away from here, only separated by a troll mountain range, there is no guarantee that his reputation will not spread here.

If someone recognized him, he could easily get into trouble and would be seen as a sign of westward expansion.

There may be a day in the future, but not now.

Not to mention that his main energy is now in the desperate eastern region. Even if it is not there, it is not appropriate to continue to expand. His next main task is to strengthen internal construction and reproduction, as well as introduce more people.

"Hundreds of priests, thousands of doctors... Hey, young man, you don't even know how to brag. How big is your territory? Will you need so many doctors?"

"At least it has to be similar to Amn or Cormyr, but the chief healer there must at least be a legendary priest!"

"That's right, young man, what's the name of your territory? Tell me!"

Many Green Nest villagers sneered at this and questioned the authenticity of what Gavin said.

"Have you ever heard of the Road of the Conqueror and the Army of the Conqueror? It was built by our lord, and Miss Anna was an important participant in it. The legion of amputees in the Army of the Conqueror was established with the help of the medical team led by her. Countless amputees on the Dragon Coast have regained their lives because of this." Although Gavin kept his identity secret, he was not prepared to let Anna continue to keep it a secret, and there was no need.

Because his visit this time was not as simple as letting Anna visit relatives.

Instead, she planned to let her parents move and move them all to their own territory.

As his strength continues to expand and he has more and more enemies, Gavin pays more and more attention to his high-level protection and anti-espionage work.

Anna is considered one of her core senior executives, so naturally she cannot leave her fatal weakness outside to be exploited by someone with ulterior motives.

Not only her, but other high-level officials will also be in this situation. It is just left to them to solve the problem on their own. Only when they encounter a situation that they cannot solve themselves will the territory directly intervene.

"The Road of the Conqueror? Are you talking about the new trade route that starts from Tethyr, crosses the Kingdom of Amn and the Giant Plains, and finally leads from the goblin wilderness to the valley?"

"The army of conquerors you are talking about is the one that almost swept across the entire Dragon Coast a year ago and forced them to form a city alliance?"

"I think there is no second road in this world called the Road of Conquerors, and there is no second army called the Army of Conquerors!"

"Are you a participant in the Conqueror's Army? Your boast is even more exaggerated than the last one, haha... With Anna's healing magic, how can you join the Conqueror's Army? Haha... We are watching She grew up!"

The name of the Conqueror's Army and the Conqueror's Road is big enough that it has already spread to this small town.

Strictly speaking, Greennest Town is also a beneficiary of the Conqueror's Road.

The Urden Trade Road that Green Nest Town relies on is a branch trade road that connects the trade road with the goblin frontier.

What restricted this trade route in the past was the rugged and difficult roads on the goblin frontier and the overgrown monsters.

When the Conqueror's Road was opened, the Urden Trade Road immediately became a natural central passage connecting it to the trade road. Passenger traffic increased rapidly. As the largest transfer station on this trade road, the town naturally had more business opportunities and gained more from it. Much wealth.

But these villagers never believed that Gavin and Anna were participants.

After a year of fermentation, the Conqueror Army had long been spread as a supernatural being. How could Anna, a little girl they watched grow up, participate in such an earth-shaking event?

"Have you heard of the regeneration gems produced in the Troll Mountains? The necklace Miss Anna wears is made of troll gems, which have powerful regeneration capabilities, including using it as a medium to perform regeneration." Gavin pulled the regeneration necklace from Anna's neck.

Without the disguise of the priest's robe, this huge emerald gem glittered in the sunset, emitting a magical aura that even ordinary people could easily feel.

If it were Gavin himself, he would just sneer at the doubts of these small citizens and ignore them at all. He didn't need to find a sense of existence from them.

When they need it one day, they can only look up to him.

But now, it is to save face for Anna who has returned to her hometown and strengthen her self-confidence.

Not only did she let the people in her hometown realize that she is no longer the young priest a year and a half ago.

She also clearly felt the huge changes in herself.

"Regeneration gem? You mean the troll gem, right? Hiss... It's really the troll gem from the Troll Mountain!"

"I heard that this kind of troll gem is extremely precious. A small piece of it, the size of a fingernail, is worth tens of thousands. Little Anna's piece is so big, it must be hundreds of thousands?"

"A necklace worth hundreds of thousands? I can't imagine it! I can't imagine it!"

"Do you think it's fake?"

"Fake? What's the matter with that powerful magic aura?"

"What's so rare about it! Those magic scammers like to use spells like light magic to deceive those who don't know the business. When they buy it back, they find it's a piece of junk!"

"You said it yourself, it's a magic scammer. Is it necessary for little Anna to deceive us?"

There are many people in Green Nest Town who know the goods and recognize the troll gem at a glance.

They are not close to the Troll Mountain, but not far away. They have heard about the production of regeneration gems there. Many young people are even tempted to go there to pan for gold, and most of them never come back. Therefore, this gem is also called "the temptation of the devil".

It means that it looks beautiful, but in fact, it is filled with endless despair and demands your soul.

"Little Anna, is what he said true? Are you really a participant in the Conqueror Army?"

Not only did the Green Nest villagers not believe it, but even the Carbon couple looked incredulous. On the contrary, the chief priest Marina looked thoughtful.

Anna naturally would not expose Gavin's stage, and what he said was all true. She nodded and admitted: "Yes, I accepted Lord Gavin's invitation to take risks and embarked on the road to find my treatment together.

The Conqueror Army is the large immigration policy launched by Lord Gavin to solve the shortage of population in the territory. By the way, I have some memory phantoms along the way."

Anna searched in her combat backpack for a while, and soon took out a thumb-sized spirit crystal ball. With the infusion of magic power, a magic phantom immediately appeared in the sky, and the image projected inside was about the Conqueror Army.

This perspective should come from Anna, all about treating various injuries, with Anna's narration.

This phantom projection stone is not a big phantom for publicity, but for medical science education.

Anna specifically asked Regina to make it for the convenience of popularizing basic medical knowledge.

If the Browns had seen this magic projection before, they would not have carried little Brown around without any treatment on his wound. At least they knew to bandage his legs urgently to stop the bleeding temporarily.

This medical knowledge popularization projection lasted only more than ten minutes, and it only showed the tip of the iceberg of the Conqueror Army.

In other words, the Conqueror Army was the background of medical education.

Even so, it still stunned everyone present.

They had never seen such a new thing. Since Anna started playing the magic projection, they were controlled for more than ten minutes, and they didn't even dare to breathe. More and more people gathered after hearing the news, filling the entire street, seriously affecting traffic, but no one cared.

Although magic projection has been developed for a year, this new thing is still a long way from being fully popularized.

Even Gavin's territory is in a mobile tour mode, and other areas are temporarily out of the question.

Even if the magic projection propaganda is launched in the future, it will be prioritized from big cities like Waterdeep or Westgate, rather than small towns like Green Nest with a population of less than 10,000.

If Anna hadn't been born here, such a small town would have to wait until the magic projection propaganda is fully launched and expanded from cities to towns to get in touch with this new thing.

"This is really incredible. Magic is really amazing. It's like we really peeked into a part of an army just now."

"But this doesn't mean that Anna has participated in the Conqueror Army. From beginning to end, there was no trace of her in it, only her voice."

"You really watched for so long in vain. Everything just now was clearly Anna's memory. Everything was from her perspective, what she really saw and heard."

"Have you not discovered the real use of this magic? It clearly records the basic medical methods of those doctors. If we can learn it, even if we can't become doctors, we can treat some injuries and avoid the cost of finding doctors."

"It's true. It's a pity that I was just watching the picture and didn't remember what was said at all!"

The eyes of those Green Nest villagers looking at Anna again were obviously less questioning and more respectful.

Powerful professionals are worthy of their respect, especially those powerful priests, who are not only the closest to God, but also have the ability to save the dying and the wounded.

Everyone may turn to them for help. (End of this chapter)
