Chapter 201: Royal Capital Mission Church
Chapter 201: Royal Capital Mission Church
The towering city-state, like a fantasy in ancient legends, stands surrounded by mountains.
From a distance, it seems like a giant beast, majestic and mysterious; up close, every stone brick is engraved with the traces of time.
The city walls are towering, like a barrier to the sky.
As the sun rises, golden sunlight shines on the city wall, dyeing every brick golden, and the entire city-state is like a burning golden torch.
The city gates were wide open, and caravans were coming in and out in an endless stream. The wheels of the cars rolled over the bluestone road, making a dull sound that intertwined with the sound of horses' hooves to form a melody.
On the city wall, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Cohen were wearing armor, which shone silver in the sunlight.
As expected of the royal capital, the soldiers guarding the city seemed to be around level three.
In other words, they are all elite.
“What a magnificent city!”
Lurek raised his head and sighed, while the others nodded silently.
"Is that... an orc?" asked Aliris.
Among the crowds passing through the city gate, one can clearly see those furry upright creatures that are obviously much taller than humans.
Some of them had wolf-like heads, wore leather clothing, and had weapons slung across their backs.
It looks a bit like the elite troops among the vampires - the stitched werewolves.
Or perhaps the prototype of the Stitched Werewolf is this group of orcs who look like upright werewolves.
Others have fox-like heads and slightly narrowed eyes that look somewhat malicious.
They were dressed in form-fitting leather robes.
Popot nodded. "Yes, they are orcs. They have the appearance of wild beasts, like upright beasts."
Except for Popot and the two elves.
The people who followed Kana were all seeing orcs for the first time, and they were observing them from afar.
Kana looked at these orcs and couldn't help but recall their backgrounds in his mind.
Like elves and dwarves, orcs can also be divided into humanoid races.
In the ancient past, a group of humans obtained the complete Genesis Stone.
In the distant past, they worshipped the totems of wild beasts, and perhaps by chance, they obtained the Stone of Creation.
Their belief in the beast allowed them to activate the Stone of Creation and make wishes through faith.
From then on, this tribe began to possess the strength and even the appearance of wild beasts.
However, it should be noted that orcs generally refer to humanoid creatures that are like upright beasts.
And it must have fur.
Because of the existence of the Creation Stone, there are always some other ethnic groups that look similar to orcs.
But not orcs.
For example, the Tauren belong to another ethnic group and do not belong to the category of orcs.
For example, the rat people are very obviously non-human.
Because they are more like giant rats standing up than humans becoming upright rats.
In short, because of the existence of the Creation Stone, the races in this world are difficult to distinguish.
Without understanding, it is very normal to make wrong distinctions, and even some ethnic groups themselves cannot understand these things.
"There are a lot of outsiders." Lulilusi said.
She identified many different races among the people coming and going at the city gate, and they should not be in the Kingdom of Cohen.
"It should be because of the gathering of troops." Aliris said.
According to information from Lawrence, the joint meeting organized by the Holy Light Church was held in this royal capital.
Everyone led their mounts and headed towards the city gate.
Perhaps it was because there were too many strange races and forces gathering in the capital during this period.
Even if they were holding a Chocobo, the residents around seemed to have gotten used to it.
He just gave me a curious look, took a quick glance, and then turned away.
There are too many people and a mixed bag.
The guards at the city gate didn't check at all and let everyone in.
The inner side of the city wall is covered with moss, and time has left a deep mark here.
The spacious streets and buildings of varying heights uphold the architectural style of the human empire in this area.
The buildings are endless at first glance, which is enough to show how huge the city is.
However, even with such a capital, the Kingdom of Cohen is only upper-middle class at the national level.
Perhaps to facilitate trade, the market is just a short detour from the main gate.
The market was bustling with activity, the cries of vendors clamoring for hawkers' wares echoing endlessly. The stalls were filled with a dazzling array of goods, from vibrant fabrics to exquisite jewelry, spicy delicacies to exotic herbs. Amidst the crowds, vendors haggled over prices, while tourists curiously examined the various novel items.
It's unbelievable that there are still people coming to the Kingdom of Cohen to travel at this time.
After walking around the market and crossing the entire commercial area, I saw a building that looked like a hotel next to the road.
There were two night watchmen at the door of the building, wearing ordinary clothes, waiting boredly.
After seeing the conspicuous Chocobo, he confirmed that it was Cana and the others, so he jumped and waved to attract their attention.
The two teams of night watchmen who were sent over a few days ago have already prepared a hotel for the incoming people.
Soon everyone rested here.
This hotel has been booked.
A dedicated living room is at their disposal.
Kana and others gathered here.
There was a simple map of the city on the table, but everyone was mainly looking at the maps in their respective interfaces.
The Night Watchmen who had arrived here a long time ago played their due role and almost lit up the entire map.
The black ones are almost all the interiors of private buildings.
As long as there is a passable place, it is almost lit up.
Through this three-dimensional map, supplemented by the simple map on the table, you can get a good understanding of the environment of the entire city.
"This is a church, the church of the Holy Light Church. As far as we know, the meeting hosted by the Holy Light Church was held here.
The bishop the leader is looking for is also here."
The night watchman next to him gave a brief account, and Kana and the others who had just arrived nodded.
After listening, Kana asked, "Have you found the people or buildings I asked you to look for?"
The Night Watch captain nodded, then shook his head and said, "We have found all the buildings you mentioned, but the people in some of the buildings don't match what you described.
And those that have only certain characteristics… only determine a person’s location.”
Cana nodded. This was beyond his expectations.
After all, no one is familiar with this place. Even if a map is lit up for them, it will be difficult for some people to find it if they are not local experts.
As for what Kana asked these night watchmen to find, it was naturally a treasure to the night watchmen.
The capital of the Kingdom of Cohen is the player's first large main city in the game.
There are countless tasks here and countless characters and residents of all kinds.
For Kana, he naturally knew many important things.
But you can't expect him to know the city completely.
However, Kana would naturally not forget important things. Even if he didn't know the details, he knew the general idea.
But the time period is a little wrong now.
The game's plot has been changed beyond recognition, and many things cannot be reflected or found in this city.
Thinking of this, Kana looked at the simple map.
Some notes are made on his needs.
Khanna pointed to a mark on the map and said, "This is the slum. Hidden inside is a sewing master named Margaret, and her two daughters."
"Lurik, go find her and bring her into the Night's Watch."
Lurik couldn't help but glare, pointing at himself: "Me?"
He was wondering if he had heard correctly, and couldn't understand why such a task was given to him.
Although he is a dwarven sage, you have to know that he is indeed a golden dwarf.
Although he didn't show much bad temper, he was still much rougher than a normal person. A woman with two daughters was still hiding in the slums.
Aren't you really afraid of messing up if you let him do this kind of thing?
Kana nodded and explained, “Although Margery is a master of sewing, she is not well-known and her hands are injured.
That's why they can only barely survive in the slums, and their lives can be considered poor.
However, she received a favor from a dwarf when she was young, so she has more trust in dwarves."
After hearing this, Lurek probably understood. Although he didn't know why Kana knew it, he was already used to this kind of thing.
No one else around wanted to ask.
Of course, this doesn't include Lulilu and Migsir, as they haven't gotten used to it yet.
Seeing that no one around asked Kana why he knew, he closed his mouth silently which had opened to ask.
"So I have to invite her to join the Night's Watch on the condition that I can heal her arm injury?" Lurik asked.
Kana nodded.
The first treatment option is naturally digitization, because the sewing master himself may not even know that he is a sewing master.
I didn't even know what was wrong with my hand.
The reason why I know this character is naturally because I am doing a task in the game.
And only dwarves can accept the task without any prerequisites.
The final reward is naturally advanced sewing-related skills. Through the task, we also learned that the initiator is a sewing master.
I just stayed in this city all my life. I have talent, but no one has discovered it. I just did things quietly.
Until one day, a material that had not been cleansed of toxins was used, causing poisoning in the arm.
A talented sewing master faded before he could even shine.
In the game, players can find a way to treat it and remove the toxins from his hands.
So even if digitization doesn't work, Kana has other ways. Of course, it would be best if digitization is possible.
Seeing that Lurik knew how to act, Cana smiled and nodded. "Yes, that's right. After all, you are the sage of Gray Mountain. Simple communication will definitely be no problem."
Lurik nodded: "If that's all, then leave it to me."
Then Cana turned and looked at the two elves.
His eyes flickered between the two of them.
This made the two elves a little nervous.
It was obvious that Kana had something that needed their help.
"Well, Lulilu, take a few night watchmen here. This is an orphanage. But this orphanage is doing business with human traffickers.
Go collect intelligence and find out all their contacts including their trafficking routes.
Then we'll wipe them all out and save those orphans."
Lulilu suddenly became a little excited, but she did not lose her composure. Instead, she thought about whether she had the ability to do so.
nodded.
But he still asked, "I'm an elf, won't it be too conspicuous?"
"It is precisely because you are an elf that you can go in and visit openly." Kana said.
At this time, the elves will not be too conspicuous.
Lulilusi nodded in understanding.
Migsir next to him looked a little dejected.
However, after learning about the situation of the mission, he had to admit that Lulilus was indeed more suitable for this task than him.
As for why Kana is paying attention to this orphanage, it is naturally because the problems in this orphanage are indeed serious.
Because they were in collusion with a cult, I don’t know if they are in collusion now.
But at least human trafficking can be confirmed.
This is a terrible task that Kana has a deep memory of.
Not to mention that there are some boss-level characters whose painful experiences come from this orphanage.
I would be doing myself a disservice if I didn't save him.
"Everyone else, follow me to church in a while."
After arranging the tasks.
Everyone immediately dispersed and left.
Kanadu took Aliris, Migsir and several night watchmen and walked towards the foot of the mountain in the city.
From a distance you can see the castle at the foot of the mountain. That is the palace of this country.
The palace is tall and majestic, and is a symbol of power.
The golden roof sparkled in the sun. As they got closer, Kana and the others could clearly see that every window of the palace was inlaid with exquisite patterns, and the details revealed the wealth and prosperity of the kingdom.
If you look carefully, you can see the side of the huge castle palace.
There is a spire, without support, floating beside it.
In the city center, a tall spire can be seen about 1 kilometer below the mountain.
Apart from the towering castle, this spire is the most conspicuous building.
There is the city's mage tower.
However, it does not belong to the royal family or any nobles, but to a magic force.
Far away, in the midday sun.
You can see a faint glow gathering.
Walk through the streets, past the houses that block your view.
More and more people gathered around, and many of them had pious expressions on their faces.
Knights wearing the armor of the Church of Holy Light began to patrol nearby.
There were also priests wearing light grey robes with gold edges and silver patterns walking around in the building.
Walk out from the corner.
The vision suddenly opens up.
before.
There stands a majestic church.
The exterior walls of the church are made of pure white marble, which sparkles in the sun, as if it were a direct descendant of holy light.
The spire points straight to the sky, and the top adopts a special structure that depicts the power of holy light, making it absorb the power of the sun and shine.
Stepping in here means entering the realm of holy light.
A warm feeling filled my body.
[Holy Illumination: Under the holy light, feel the pure power of the holy light. Magic and health recovery speed is increased, and gain the ability to ward off evil spirits and exorcise demons.]
At the church entrance, you can see believers coming and going.
Kana and the others looked like just another believer, and there was nothing special about them that was worth noting.
Perhaps because of the joint meeting, people from all forces and races can be seen here.
When you enter the church, the first thing that catches your eye is the spacious hall. The high dome is painted with exquisite murals depicting the legends and teachings of the Church of Holy Light.
Rows of beautifully carved wooden benches line both sides of the hall for believers to pray and meditate.
In the deepest part of the church, a huge statue stands solemnly. This statue has no clear representation and is just a crystal-like sculpture.
On the altar in front of the statue, the sacred fire burns all year round.
The church is not only a spiritual haven for believers, but also a center for spreading the power of holy light.
Here, priests of the Holy Light perform various sacred rituals, healing injured bodies and purifying polluted souls.
The church's library contains a rich collection of scriptures and ancient books, and is a treasure trove for studying the teachings of the Holy Light.
Interestingly, the style of this church is integrated with the entire city.
The Church of Holy Light in each place will not be unique, but will try its best to blend its architectural style with the local environment.
It can better show the feeling of intimacy.
