In fact, it is not a god, at most it is a ritual procedure specially reserved by the gods for this miracle.
It would take the priests several days to comprehend even a single babble from the ancient nature gods, so how could they participate in the miracle ceremony in Kendall County every year?
It was just a special ritual channel left by the gods for them after the priest couple communicated with the gods decades ago.
Huge eyes formed by the water of Wumi Lake float in the center of the lake. Naturally, the people of Wumi Lake Village can’t see any special sights on the shore of the lake. Only the tilted water mirror at high altitude can capture the huge eyes The complete projection is displayed, and naturally, the people of Hekou Town can also look up and see all this.
On the high platform more than ten meters high, the male priest raised his hands and looked up at the eyes in the water mirror. He muttered to himself and conveyed the prayers that need to be repeated every year through the water mirror.
Soon, the eyes in the lake melted into the water and disappeared, but a blue light fell from the sky and landed directly on the male priest.
The water mirror in the sky rapidly expanded and expanded, and soon spread into a large cloud of water mist, which disappeared in a way similar to raindrops.
And on the high platform, the male priest shrouded in blue light was bathed in a strong divine power, his soul seemed to be washed by the current of water, he raised a hand trembling all over, and raised it up to the sky.
Immediately, a steady stream of vigorous and powerful mental power was transformed by him and rose from the high platform.
This blue divine power went straight to the sky and extended to very high places.
The blue beam rising from the ground was seen across Kendal County.
-
"Here we go. Children, concentrate!"
In front of the temple on the side of the river in Kendall City, the female priest and several children stood in a circle surrounded by colored pebbles, and they all saw the blue light from the north.
Immediately, the children put their hands together and closed their eyes to pray, silently reciting the prayers that they recite every year.
The female priest, like her husband, also raised her hands to the sky.
Without her guiding anything, the blue light projected from Hekou Town to the sky fell on her at an extremely fast speed.
With a bang, the moment she accepted the projection, a blue halo spread out from her palm and swept out instantly, attracting the attention of the people on the wall of Kendall City not far away.
And Keel's note.
-
Keel noticed that not only was a beam of blue light falling from the sky near here, but also a blue beam of light rising from the horizon in the direction of Hekou Town in the north.
What he didn't know was that as the couple released the blue light into the sky, the other received the blue light.
On the land of Kendall County, where there are **** emblems of the Lord of Rivers and Lakes, those **** emblems gradually seem to have been remotely charged, and each of them is bright and active.
In the main town of Hekou Town and various ferries, the emblems of the gods in the small shrines set up by fishermen emit bright blue light. After these blue lights are filled, some radiant water gradually drips down. And these waters are different from ordinary rivers and lakes. They respond to the prayers of the priests, couples and children. After flowing on the ground, they don’t touch any other substances. Instead, they splash out like children and run to the town. The periphery, the periphery of the ferry.
Start to circle around the land where human beings live.
At the beginning, there was not much water flow, but as more and more luminous water flows overflowed from the emblem of the gods, these flowing luminous water flows gradually increased and became full.
Not only in Hekou Town, but also on the impact plain on the north side of Kendall City, in the rooms in the center of each farm, the secret rooms that have never been visited by anyone are also placed with a stone pillar. The emblem of the gods, as before, as the husband and wife released and retracted the endless blue light, a cycle of divine power was constructed in the sky, the earth, and the river, and the emblems of these farms in the cycle were also filled. Awakened the power of the gods.
The blue glowing water flowed out gradually, and then flowed along the gaps in the farm building to the outside wall of the farm not far away, bouncing around the farm in circles as before.
As the luminous water flow increases, the circles around the farm become higher and thicker. When they reach a height of two or three meters, they gradually stop rising, and everything becomes stable and stable.
All the people in the farm came to the heights of the farm, opened the windows or sat on the fence, pointed at the water fence that protected them, and said all kinds of words.
Some people looked to the north and guessed when the flood would come. They even made a small gamble for this, and put the few coins in their hands on it one after another.
Some people complained why the protected water flow could not be increased. It would be better to enclose the fields cultivated by themselves, so that after the flood, they would not have to work hard to re-measure the fields. They have to get it done once a year, and they have long since found it troublesome.
In Kendall City, it is so close to the temple where the female priests are, so it is naturally surrounded by water to prevent floods.
Kendall City is built on a mountain, and it stands to reason that the lowest point is also much higher than the place where the flood can hit. But the Baron Kendall family is proficient in the construction of magic power projects, and there are free protection measures, so naturally they don't want the magic power organs under the city to be hit by floods every year, which saves a lot of money for city maintenance.
At this time, in addition to the people on the city wall like Keir, in the high place of the city, in the hall of Baron Kendall's mansion, in addition to the members of the Baron Kendall's family, some knights are also here.
Baron Kendall was sitting on the main seat in the hall, looking up at a map of Kendall County.
"Jenny, you have the best eyesight. Please go to the top of the water tower to see if there are any problems with the protection measures of various farms and settlements." The baron ordered to Knight Lanisa who was sitting by the side.
At this time, Knight Lanisa's injury has mostly healed, but the scar left by the burn has not yet been eliminated by divine magic. .
After receiving the lord's order, Knight Lanisa stood up and saluted, and walked out wearing a female cavalry light armor that was more decorative than practical for the knights.
She called a few servants who were waiting outside the hall, and headed towards the highest point of the baron's mansion—the water tower.
Soon after arriving at the water tower, she climbed up the specially built stone ladder in the water tower, and behind her were several male and female servants who were panting from climbing the stone ladder.
When she reached the top of the water tower, she didn't need a servant to wipe it down, and just sat in the open place. She rubbed her eye sockets, and soon, a small amount of life energy gathered in her eyes. When she opened her eyes and looked towards the north, a large divine force field that could not be recognized by the naked eye appeared in her eyes.
"Oh! It's so spectacular every time I see it."
Knight Lanisa muttered to herself, while the servants following behind looked at each other, completely unable to guess what the Lord Knight saw.
But soon, Lanisa Knight recovered from the shock and started working.
She clearly knows the location of every farm on the north side of Kendall City. At this moment, by identifying some of the most active places in the divine force field that traverses the world, she compares the locations with the farms she is familiar with.
As she tapped her fingers, the places where the divine power was active were aligned with the directions of the farms in her memory. Every time she confirmed the situation of four or five farms, the servants behind her remembered the name of the farm she said, and sent one person back to the hall of the mansion.
Soon, after all the farms confirmed that they had been protected by a protective water ring, the last servant also remembered the names of those farms and returned the same way.
And the people in the hall gradually quieted down as each area was secured.
Knight Lanisa just sat on the highest point of the entire Kendall City, sitting silently.
With the official arrival of spring, she seems to have gradually let go of the things that didn't make her happy this winter.
"Father has died a long time ago, he has died a long time ago." She muttered softly, stroking a piece of skin on her neck that had not yet returned to normal.
She felt that, compared to the knighthood and family property passed down to her after her father disappeared, the scars left by the two when they fought were the real things that man left her.
These things are far more important than the rest. These days, relying on her father's final ending, she deliberately searched for content about werewolves in the family books. She learned a lot, not only some of the adventures of the man in his early years, but also many legends about his home in the empire.
Connected with his experience, she finally knew everything behind it.
Then the female knight sobbed softly on the empty water tower.
She hated these things because they had destroyed not only her father, but her possible life.
-
Keel took off the fur hat on his head and shook it vigorously, throwing the water droplets stained on it to the ground.
Waiting is not boring, after all, here you can clearly see the thick circle of water that surrounds the entire city of Kendall several meters high. I heard the people next to me say that those things may look like water, but they are actually used to protect their city.
Of course, many people think that Kendall City does not need the protection of these things, after all, the city is built on a high place. Some people told the story of their fathers living here in the early days. The couple priests who could perform such miracles did not come here. People live here in Kendall City today, but they are not hit by floods every year.
It's just that although the situation at the time was as these people said, the development of Kendall County has been greatly affected.
People could only reclaim a small piece of land around Kendall City, but failed to reclaim the fertile land on the north side on a large scale, and the population of Kendall City could not increase. The migrants came and went to other places that were not affected by the flood.
Until one day, a middle-aged priest couple came here and saw the plight of the Kendal people. After a period of preparation, they performed a miraculous divine ritual during the flood period of the second year.
As farms to the north were built one by one, the population of Kendall County rose rapidly and the economy prospered. After more than ten years, the then Baron Kendall decided to rebuild Kendall City.
As he said that, a roar that gradually increased from low to low gradually sounded.
Keel heard it, and so did everyone else.
"The great flood is coming!"
"It's finally here! Everyone look north!"
With similar cries, all those on the walls looked north. A faint black line on the horizon at the end of the line of sight attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone gathered to the edge of the fence, squeezing each other and looking towards the north side. Keir's eyes were fixed, and he saw two young men with dirty hands and feet taking advantage of the crowded opportunity to take out other people's money bags.
But he ignored it and turned his head to look at the flood.
Booming, the flood is coming faster than it is moving, but it doesn't mean the flood is slowing down.
On the contrary, the flood that came along the Kendall River was far faster than a galloping horse. It was only because the distance was too far that it seemed slow without comparison.
Keel just watched, as the black and yellow flood flooded from the horizon, passing one barely visible farm after another.
However, those floods with huge impact and ravaging the wilderness can't do anything to those small farms. It's not because of how strong the farm is built, it's just that outside the farm, compared with the seemingly endless flood, there is a thin layer of blue-emitting water barrier, which easily blocks the torrential flood.
It didn't take long for those floods to seem to have lost their strength because of the open impact plain, and they were not very scary when they came to the city of Kendall.
But at this moment, the entire surrounding area of Kendall City, except for the temple of the god, only Kendall City has not yet been submerged in the black and yellow flood.
"ah!!"
Some people yelled at the flood to relieve the impact on their spirit.
Although Keir also felt that all this was very surprising, he didn't follow suit.
He noticed that as the flood came, the power and volume of the flood was increasing. Even though Kendall City was already located in a relatively southerly area, the flood here gradually rose from one meter high to two meters high.
What he didn't know was that at this time, outside every farmhouse north of Kendall City, the flood situation there was even more terrifying and desperate.
-
"Oh!! This year's flood is even bigger than previous years!"
At the height of Wiss Farm, Millenton was standing on the roof of a farmhouse, shouting at the raging flood.
Beside him, there were some other brave young people scattered here and there. Everyone imitated his example and howled loudly at the flood, because the surroundings were full of floods and the luminous flowing water walls collided with each other. produced a huge roar.
These loud noises frightened some children in Zhuangzi to cry, and their parents had to find something to plug their children's ears, and then continued to comfort the frightened children.
And at the owner of the farm, Mr. Weiss, he is now with his family, counting the tools for re-measurement of the field after the flood. In the evening, there was also a conversation that was sure to last for a long time between him and the head of the farmer who rented his field in the village.
In this conversation, the heads of each family will re-rent Mr. Weiss's farmland according to the manpower situation of each family. the reason? That is, some adult men in each of their families have already gone to Kendall City at this time, and will participate in Baron Kendall's expedition after the spring.
There is one less male in the family, so naturally this year's field doesn't need to be rented so wide. After all, the rented land is less, and the rent paid when receiving the goods will be less.
Farmers come to these farms that have to pay two rents to make money, and they will not do loss-making business at all. If it weren't for this extraordinarily fertile land, they could earn more wealth than those who settled in remote villages. Don't want a piece of land of your own?
Not only did they have the most fertile land they had ever seen, but they also had cattle and farm tools that could be used for free, which was far beyond the hard work in the empire.
Sure enough, people have legs, and they have to rely on them to find the best place to live.
-
In the town of Hekou further north, the people boldly walked up to the pier of the town, pointing at the four to five meter high torrential flood.
Every year, the flood here is the most turbulent regardless of its size.
The people who grew up here have also developed a big heart that is different from other places. At this time, some people even took out drinks, singing and dancing while drinking and dancing.
It was the lively Elisa knight who led them into trouble, and the people of Hekou Town had the habit of making a scene first when they encountered something.
But at this time, Knight Elisa did not join in. He sat firmly on the chair and carefully looked at the figure of the male priest who was bathed in extremely abundant divine power.
He tried to learn a trick from this person, even if it was just a superficial skill, it would be a special skill that his family could pass on.
The Lanisa family is like that. Even if the head knight suddenly disappears, relying on a secure family inheritance, they can still quickly cultivate a new knight-level head. It's not like the old knight in the south, who is getting old and has to find a way to hand over all his abilities to the nephew of the family who is most likely to be promoted to a strong knight.
Even Knight Elisa doesn't look down on the nephew of the old knight's family at all.
For guys like them who fought hard and became knight warriors when they were young, the most troublesome problem is how to pass on their own skills to the children.
It's easy and simple to ask them to kill something, but it's too embarrassing for them to pass on their own ability to be promoted to knight without knowing what happened.
To this end, Elisa Knight thought of many ways. Fortunately, his territory is very good. Over the years, he has established a good relationship with the border knights of the empire. Taking advantage of the opportunity to maintain the supplies of the knights, he even established a relationship with the local vice-captain of the knights. Nice friendship.
He is a serious magician!
Thinking of this, Knight Elisa felt that there was no problem in cultivating offspring, so taking this opportunity to figure out a unique skill or trick would be more effective for him and the family he established.
There are still two or three days left for the flood to rage~www.mtlnovel.com~ He still has a long time to observe carefully. Therefore, Knight Elisa turned his head to look at the sullen old priest Cook: "Haha, priest Cook, do you think all this is difficult to understand?"
The old priest whose chest was rising and falling raised his head and smiled wryly.
"Hey, what an inadvertent move. Just now, my trust in the **** was hit, and I was reprimanded by my god."
Knight Eliza smiled: "You should be prepared, the miracle ceremony is not just a talk. When I wandered around in the capital of the kingdom, I have never seen those high-ranking priests who can guarantee that they will perform miracles. "
The old priest who had calmed down stroked his gray beard, shook his head and said: "Can't you say that, miracle ceremony. Every church has its own unique ability, not that it doesn't have that ability, but in the capital, The royal family will not let them have that opportunity."
"oh?"
Knight Elisa came to his senses: "Tell me about it in detail."
"Within the royal capital, the number of priests allowed to live in each church is controlled. The number of high-ranking priests, the number of ordinary priests, and the number of apprentice priests are all reviewed by officials. Hehe, those king's running dogs and spies Ladies and gentlemen, we will count the number of priests in the royal capital every few days, and everyone is very troubled."
These words made Elisa knight laugh. When he was young in the king's capital, he harassed those guys who cared about everything more than once. At that time, he thought that wild wandering knights like him were not welcome by the king, but now it seems that not only knights, but even the priests and priests who are high above the ground are also harassed by them.
But also, who told the king to have the reorganized Knights of the Royal Guard as the best support for his power?
