Keel asked, "Excuse me, what are these things?"
Following the mottled plant cloak that Keel pointed curiously, the middle-aged priest who brought it explained: "This is a kind of concealment cloak that can hide your body in the forest. It is the church's imitation of the forest elves. A prop made of a forest cloak. The color on it is similar to the fur pattern of animals, which can hide from human eyes from a distance. These more or less various branches and shrubs are related to the blessings they receive.”
After finishing speaking, the middle-aged priest unfolded a cloak and put it on himself. The hood of the cloak is put over the head, and the front edge of the cloak on the chest is flicked left and right to cover the front and back so that the body does not leak out.
Then the middle-aged priest took two steps and came to the stone table: "Look at it."
He stood there first.
"There is a coat of arms of the God of Saturn on the neckline of the cloak, and it will change after a light touch." As soon as he finished speaking, Kiel saw the opponent's hand under the cloak reach up and tap the coat of arms.
Then the various plant branches and shrub branches on the top and bottom of the cloak, which were originally hanging down, branched out as if electrified.
The whole person seemed to suddenly become the base of many plants on his body, like a mottled trunk that was broken and bullied by many plants.
"Uh, this?"
Before Keil could finish his questioning words, a new change suddenly took place in the outrageous thing in front of him.
After activating the inner blessing of the cloak, not only did the plants on its surface branch out, but also new changes took place on the surface of the cloak as time went by.
The cloak that was originally shaped like a standing person changed rapidly, and the original mottled color of the feet faded, replaced by the same dark gray color as the surrounding stone ground.
Then from the feet upwards, the human figure and the cloak gradually disappeared, leaving behind a real tree trunk, which was still covered with wet moss and flowers.
Near the head and shoulders, which are the most human-like, the shape changes into a round cylinder, which is the same size as the bottom, and some vines and flowers quickly climb up on it.
The original branches and shrubs turned black and hidden, and they couldn't be seen at all if they didn't pay attention.
In this way, after only a few breaths, a middle-aged priest standing and displaying blessing props disappeared in front of everyone, leaving behind only a tall column full of moss and flowers.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Kiel would never have thought that the thing in front of him was not something that didn't exist in the underground storage hall.
Because the bottom of the column covered with plants and flowers is clearly connected to the ground.
"How, after the blessing is activated, it can quickly integrate with the surrounding environment. It is not easy to be discovered."
Shi Zhu spoke.
Keir had a weird look on his face. He didn't expect the branch cloak to work so well.
Then the middle-aged priest in the cloak squatted down.
This time, the change of the cloak was a bit unstoppable, but soon, the figure of the squatting priest changed again, this time it was not like a stone pillar, but a green bush that was not very high close to the ground.
If it weren't for knowing that there is no habit of placing green plants in buildings in the human society of the other world, Keel almost thought that these priests had originally planted this shrub here.
"It's okay, it's okay, I've seen the hiding ability of this cloak, it's really powerful."
Keel clapped his hands, and the metal gloves clapped together, making the sound of metal slamming.
The crouching bush stood up, and then a hand reached out from it and lifted the hood of the cloak.
The middle-aged priest then turned off the concealment ability of the cloak and took it off.
"What about this prop?"
The prop Keel pointed to was a whole set of gadgets, a combination of a metal spike and a few stone balls.
He couldn't tell what this thing was for just by looking at it. He could only guess what the metal nails might be used to fix based on its appearance.
"This thing is a mobile positioning tool used to determine the orientation in an unknown environment in the wild. It is a good thing developed by the church on the side of the empire, called a positioning pin. I will demonstrate it to you, and you will understand."
After speaking, the priest greeted his companions, and several of them came to the side and parted with each part of the props set.
The middle-aged priest who was demonstrating the props held a metal nail covered with tiny prayers on the surface, stood surrounded by people around him, and then lightly rubbed the surface of the metal nail with his hands.
The small writing on the metal nail gradually brightened up, but the light was very faint, and it was hard to notice if you didn't pay attention.
After the metal spikes lit up, the priests holding small stone **** all stretched out their palms holding the stone balls, so that the stone ball in the center of their palms was displayed in front of Kiel and the others.
Keel took a closer look and found that there was no other change in the metal nail, but the surface of the stone ball in other people's hands was emitting fluorescence, and this fluorescence did not scatter towards the surroundings, but drifted straight in the direction of the metal nail past.
"How? See how and where they are used?"
Kiel nodded, and then the middle-aged priest holding the metal nail walked around, while the fluorescent lights floating on the stone **** in the hands of the others kept changing directions, always pointing to the real-time position of the metal nail.
"It's amazing! If you have this set of props, you won't be able to miss the position marked by the metal nails in places with heavy fog or complicated environments!"
Kiel praised it sincerely, because this thing is really easy to use and practical at first glance.
Not only that, the priest holding the metal nails did not move, while the other priests holding the luminous stone ball started to move.
Keel could see that as he moved, the fluorescent light floating on the surface of the stone ball was constantly changing directions. No matter where the priest holding it went, the fluorescent light on the stone ball was always facing the metal spike.
-
After the previous props were displayed, the next ones were two small wooden Saturn statues.
When Keir saw this thing, he felt that it was exactly the same as the black wooden bird statue on his chest, and they seemed to be of the same type.
"This statue of the great Saturn is used to assist the priests in fighting and exploring wild life. Everyone knows the name, it is a statue of amulet, or a statue of a **** of protection. Generally speaking, we provide it for the priests to use exclusively. But you, warrior of Kiel, have enough Saturn power in you, so you should be able to use it."
After finishing speaking, the middle-aged priest came over with two small wooden idols in hand, and handed one to Kiel.
Keir lowered his head and looked carefully at the small wooden statue, no, the statue of the bodyguard.
Different from other images of Saturn, although the face of Saturn on this wooden statue is relatively blurred, it looks like a typical image of priests of the Saturn Church when dressed.
He tapped the wooden idol lightly with his fingers, and found that it looked like it was made of wood, but its actual hardness and firmness were far superior to ordinary wood. It was estimated that stones were not as strong as it.
Squeeze it a little harder, and a cyan ripple of divine power appeared on the surface of the statue, blocking Kiel's move.
What's interesting is that the divine power of the **** of agriculture consumed by it to generate the ripples of divine power was actually paid by Kiel himself. Kiel clearly felt part of the Saturn's divine power flowing through his fingers and poured into the wooden statue through the metal glove.
"interesting."
After finishing speaking, the light of the statue flickered a little, and a wave visible to the naked eye bombarded from the statue towards the front.
Bo Long Long—
The attack range was not large, that is, the shoulder width of a normal person was about half a meter, but the attack distance was six or seven meters away. A wave of divine power swept across, and some floating dust on the ground was blown up.
"Its power is not bad. It is no problem to subdue ordinary people or ordinary soldiers. It can directly knock people into the air or knock them to the ground. The impact will also make people a little confused. At this time, retreat or step forward to subdue the opponent. .”
"besides."
The middle-aged priest holding the amulet statue turned around to look at his companion, and the priest holding the pointing stone ball was not polite, and directly threw the stone ball towards the middle-aged priest vigorously.
Hoo-dang!
The stone ball flew by, but when it was very close to the middle-aged priest, it was blocked in the air by a blue ripple of the **** of Saturn's divine power that suddenly appeared.
After a loud impact sound, the stone ball fell to the ground in a daze, and at the same time, the protective blue ripples disappeared.
"It can also generate a divine wave defense with a certain degree of protection on the front of the body when the holder remains vigilant. It can protect a little from the shooting of bows and arrows in a short period of time."
"Short time? What is the specific intensity? This is critical."
Kiel's question was on the point, he couldn't really try the specific protective power, so he asked about the specific situation, so that he would not make mistakes in the future use.
"Specific words."
The middle-aged priest looked at their leader, the old priest in black robes. The other party nodded slightly.
So he said: "Look at the strength of the bow and arrow. A normal archer's full bow can defend against seven arrows. As for the crossbow, it depends on the strength of the design of the crossbow. A common soldier's bow needs about ten arrows. Of course, The farther you are from the incoming bows and arrows, the more power they lose and the more they can protect. The variables in this need to be experienced and mastered by the user himself."
The middle-aged priest continued: "Besides this, it has other functions."
"Like this."
Immediately, the protective statue emitted light, the blue light was bright but not dazzling, and most of the underground storage hall was illuminated brightly.
"and this."
The middle-aged priest pulled out a piece of hair from his head, and with a flick of the amulet statue in his other hand, the hair on his left hand was burned to ashes with green smoke.
"Of course, the most important function is that it can be used as a medium for priests to pray to the great Saturn in the wild. This is very useful for some young priests."
As he spoke, the middle-aged priest also glanced at Priest Batar beside Kiel.
Priest Batar immediately coughed in embarrassment.
"In addition, the amulet statue can also be used as a reliable tool to show the identity of the people, especially the Saturn believers. They can really generate a very small amount of divine power when they pray to the statue. It is used to show their identity or unite believers , It is very useful to gain the trust of the followers of the strange **** of Saturn."
Finally, the old black-robed priest said: "Our Church of the God of Saturn never fights alone. The most extensive cultivators are our real powerful force."
In this regard, Priest Batar devoted himself to being taught, but Priest Mingu did not express it. Obviously, within the Saturnalia Church, the ideas and methods of doing things are not consistent.
-
After introducing the amulet statue, it is the next blessing item.
It was a tiny wooden hut that looked like a toy.
Not big, just the size of a fist, round and solid, with a flue on the top, no windows, and only a small wooden door made of the same wood on the front.
"this is?"
The middle-aged priest lifted the object and displayed it in front of priests Kiel and Batar.
"This is Shelter Farm. A rare blessing item."
The middle-aged priest looked around, and finally seemed to give up something: "After all, the hall is underground, and this thing is not easy to display like other things. It looks small, and it will become a room that can accommodate dozens of people after actual use." It’s a big house. And this wooden house looks weak, but in fact, there is stored divine power inside to provide energy and protection, and if you hide in it, even monsters can’t destroy it.”
Keir pointed to the wooden door of the small cabin: "But there is a door, and there is no lock or anything. Does it have measures to fix the door inside?"
The middle-aged priest shook his head: "No need, the wooden door of this small wooden house looks ordinary, but in fact, the person who opens it every time can only push the door open personally. Unless other people have the strength to directly destroy the wooden house, otherwise Can't open the wooden door."
Keir didn't expect this thing to look ordinary and backward, but he didn't expect it to be quite smart.
After introducing all the props, the middle-aged priest handed things over to Kiel and the two of them, while the other priests also prepared a handover paper document.
The priests of Kiel and Batar, as well as the Minggu priest who brought them, need to sign or leave a mark.
The Minggu priest swiped the document a few times with his fingers, leaving a name written with his divine power.
Priest Batar couldn't do so lightly, so he had to honestly sign his name with the ink quill provided here, and then gather his divine power to leave a circular mark of divine power.
Kiel snorted and smiled. He flicked his fingers and tried to draw on the document, wanting to write his name, but Kiel didn't have the ability to release life energy at this time, so he had to follow along honestly. Signed, then pricked the tip of his finger with the tip of the pen, leaving a drop of blood full of his life energy.
The difference between divine power and life energy is here for Kiel to truly understand.
Compared with the convenient transfer and release of divine power, the life energy of knights is more restrained. Ordinary knights do not have the ability to release life energy~www.mtlnovel.com~ But this does not mean that life energy is weaker than divine power, no Similarly, when it comes to a real battle, no one compares strengths one by one like a competition.
In a real battle, all kinds of situations have to be taken into consideration. The number of people, strength, detection, belief, skills, weapons, props, protection, terrain, environment, energy, fatigue, disease, etc., will all affect the direction of the battle.
And despite the large number of priests, most of them are not very good at fighting, unlike the knights who kill and fight to survive.
Rather than fighting, the actual main task of priests is to develop faith for their gods.
Force is only one part of developing faith.
For today's St. Holes Kingdom, the growing number of migrants and the second-generation population have prevented the churches from attacking each other. The ratio of priests to people still makes the churches feel that they are too short-handed and overwhelmed.
In the future, when most of the land in the Kingdom of St. Holes is developed, the population will no longer grow rapidly. At that time, the belief competition for believers will change from the increase of the overall population to the competition for the stock of the existing population.
At that time, various churches will no longer ignore you and I ignore you as they do now. Religious wars may not happen, but conflicts and disputes will probably be inevitable.
-
After all the auxiliary props are finished, Priest Batar needs a set of priest weapons and equipment that he needs.
At this point, Kiel realized that the priests actually need to undergo certain martial arts training in the stage of apprentice priests. Not to mention how powerful it actually is, but at least it can protect itself under normal circumstances and cultivate a sense of struggle.
In response, the priests in the underground storage hall brought him a new set of equipment.
