Doctor of Science's Journey into Another World
Chapter 29 Preparation before departure
After Bai Haoguang's full-strength healing technique and a night's rest, Kalia became lively again.
Bai Hao had already told Elsa about his plan to travel far away. Elsa expressed her support for this, but required that she must arrange the accompanying guards and servants. Bai Hao didn't care about this. After all, it was very rare for Elsa to agree to let her go far away.
There is still half a year before Bai Hao reaches the required admission age of thirteen to the Ornolan Advanced School. During this period before admission, Bai Hao plans to go to the Swart Empire south of the Omo Empire to visit the large library there and pay a visit to some elven scholars who have lived for thousands of years.
The Swart Empire is located in the western part of the Central Plains of the Walterlan Continent, bordering the elven kingdom of Gibis in the south, and some small Western countries controlled by the Dark Night Witch in the west.
The Swart Empire was greatly influenced by the rich academic atmosphere of the elves. The royal family attached great importance to academic research and magical education. There were many schools and institutions in the country, including four advanced institutions like Ornolan.
The people of the Swat Empire believe in the God of the Fiery Sun, which is slightly opposed to the Goddess of the Bright Moon believed in by the Omo Empire. There have been constant frictions between the two countries' sects for many years, but it has never affected their political exchanges and close economic cooperation.
Since Elsa needs some time to recruit people, she also provides some necessary training for the accompanying personnel that Bai Hao will need for this trip.
Therefore, Bai Hao still needs to wait for a week before he can set off, which makes Bai Hao deeply feel that his mother has really made full preparations for his trip abroad.
Bai Hao had heard that among the guards this time there were many active military mages of the magician class, and his mother also had a special guard for herself, which included all aspects of attributes such as offense, defense, stealth, reconnaissance and medical care.
Bai Hao often suspected that this trip to Swart was not a simple and enjoyable pre-enrollment trip, but more like a cross-border visit by a diplomatic team.
Today, at the request of his mother, Bai Hao, Kalia and Xing Lili came to the Church of the Goddess of the Bright Moon in the center of the inner city. The purpose of Bai Hao's trip was to pray for a long journey in the near future.
Bai Hao was in the carriage, looking out the window at this grand building complex in classic Gothic style and couldn't help but sigh. The area of the Church of the Goddess of the Bright Moon is second only to the Campbell family's manor in the inner city of Campbell, where every inch of land is valuable.
The church buildings are all tall and thin, with many neatly arranged bamboo shoot-like decorations dotted in between. The emblem of the Moon Goddess sect is a horizontal crescent moon with a sphere in the middle of the two tips of the crescent moon. A thick vertical line runs directly through the crescent moon and the sphere. Many emblems are set on the outer walls of church buildings.
Bai Hao felt a little funny when thinking about his prayer this time. He was the incarnation of the Moon Goddess, and the Moon Goddess's thoughts and will remained in his body. Wasn't this prayer equivalent to worshiping himself?
This was not the first time that Bai Hao came to the largest church of the Moon Goddess sect in Campbell, but every time Bai Hao came here, he would have a strange feeling. It was a sense of déjà vu, an inexplicable sense of intimacy, as if he had some invisible connection with this church.
The carriage drove to the square in front of the church, and Bishop Odom, who had been waiting there for a long time, greeted Bai Hao and his party with a smile.
Aisha, supported by the head maid Irene, slowly and gracefully got off the carriage. Facing Odom's smile, this powerful woman in Campbell County did not give him any face and said bluntly: "Odom, when can you return Sergeant Qi Xuan? He has been studying in the church for almost a month. I sent someone to look for him a week ago."
Sergeant Qi Xuan, as mentioned by Aisha, is a non-commissioned officer of Campbell's Second Legion. As he is a rare light element mage, he is highly respected in the barracks. He is also a kind person, often doing his best to heal seriously injured soldiers, and occasionally faints due to exhaustion of magic power.
However, Sergeant Qi Xuan happened to understand the teachings of the Moon Goddess Sect during a free medical consultation activity organized by Bishop Odom not long ago. He was accepted as Odom's last disciple and is still studying in the sect's church and has not returned to the army.
Odom is already in his sixties or seventies. He entered the Cult of the Bright Moon Goddess at the age of ten and has been in the sect for more than fifty years. He has a very high reputation in the Cult of the Bright Moon Goddess and even in the entire Campbell Territory. Even Earl Campbell has to give him face.
Odom's face was ruddy and he looked energetic. His white hair was neatly combed. He smiled kindly and said, "When I treated old Earl Campbell, he said that his daughter-in-law was capable and the best candidate to lead the army. I never thought that the trouble-making Cullennan would marry you. It's really a wonderful fate, hahaha."
Elsa had a helpless look on her face. Although she was very powerful and could have taken Sergeant Qi Xuan back by force, she was not only a powerful magician, but also the general and mistress of Campbell Territory.
So Aisha said solemnly: "Sergeant Qi Xuan is an excellent therapist who is indispensable to our army. As a soldier, he has an absolutely bright future in the army. Although he is your apprentice now, he was a Campbell soldier before. Therefore, he must fulfill his military obligations. If he continues like this, I can only regard him as a deserter."
Odom heard this, with a smile on his face. He took out a piece of old letter paper from the inner pocket of his spotless robe with his skinny hands and handed it to Elsa calmly, saying, "Alas, back then, old Earl Campbell once wrote to me asking me to treat him. At that time, I tried my best, but in the end I fainted due to exhaustion of magic power..."
Upon hearing this, Elsa snatched the old letter paper with the Campbell family emblem printed on it, snorted with a stiff face, and then led Bai Hao and his party into the church. Bishop Odom smiled but said nothing and followed slowly behind.
Bai Hao witnessed the whole process and couldn't help but twitch his lips at the kind-faced and amiable old bishop. Odom had lived for sixty or seventy years, and all the nobles, big and small, in Campbell Territory had asked him for treatment more or less. He sighed in his heart that Odom should be regarded as the biggest debtor of favors in Campbell Territory.
