Chapter 423 Blood Shark

The work of the church is going on in an orderly manner. The church personnel will go to the street to distribute leaflets and publicize the teachings; when people who are interested in the church come to the church, the church will give them a small gift to increase the importance of the church in their minds. Then, Father Miro will use his three-inch tongue to speak to these people, which is called inspiration; finally, Vera, who occasionally appears on the scene, will randomly prophesy to someone in the church, often a few days later, People will find that the person prophesied by Jean Vera is crying and begging to join the church.

And such a person will drive his family, friends, and even relatives to join the church. Under such a chain reaction, Father Miro's church is growing at a geometric speed. In just a few days, more than half of the citizens in the territory of Storm City have become believers.

This kind of influence is still expanding, and with the business exchanges between Storm City and Violet Harbor, ~pig~pig~island~small~say~www~zuhu~ is becoming more and more frequent. Many businessmen have already brought various miracles of this church to the port. Even under the intentional promotion of Allen, led by the Lily Chamber of Commerce and Roger, they organized a church event, and asked Father Miro to leave for the port to preach in the near future. .

It is conceivable that when the church took hold in Violet Harbor. Then, through the many merchants in the port, the image of Christianity will be spread to other territories of the empire, laying the foundation for the church to enter the hinterland of the empire. Of course, before that, Allen needs to enter the hinterland in advance and gain a foothold. Only when Allen's power can pass through the hinterland of the empire, can the Church be able to flow unimpeded.

Conversely, when the church takes root in the empire, it will eventually shade Allen. At that time, with secular power and divine power in hand, Allen's power will sweep any lord in the empire, including the Duke. At that time, I am afraid that only the royal family can compete with it. However, given the pervasive nature of the church, this threat will eventually become a non-threat.

The blueprint has been planned, and the only thing left is to promote and realize it. Of course, Allen knew that achieving the ultimate goal was much more difficult than planning a blueprint.

On the second day after the cathedral ceremony, Higgs said goodbye and left. But when he left, he left behind a dark cloud knight. Higgs told Allen that if Storm City was in danger and needed support, someone would tell the knight, and he would naturally notify Higgs through Black Iron Castle's own methods. Allen readily accepted, and at the same time knew that the deterrence he arranged at the ceremony worked, otherwise Higgs would not be so kind.

However, keeping a black cloud knight in Storm City might not necessarily be a good thing. He can completely become Higgs' most legitimate eye, and he can report the situation of Storm City to Black Iron Fort from time to time. It's just that Alan didn't take this arrangement to heart. He forged ahead, constantly hitting higher power and bigger territories, and following the upright kingly pattern. Since Higgs wants to see it, let him see enough. When he saw that Storm City was getting stronger and growing faster than he expected, Allen knew exactly what choice he would make.

After bidding farewell to Higgs, Allen received an invitation from Roger.

Roger's slave team will go to sea in a week, and then they will go to the port of the ark and visit an earl. Roger invited Allen to go with him, so as to understand the pattern in the hinterland of the empire, and at the same time see if there is any possibility of cooperation with the earl. Allen agreed, and just before he was about to leave, the envoys from Bauhinia and Dawn Castle arrived.

Allen met them in the study.

The emissary of the Bauhinia flower turned out to be a woman, in her late thirties, which is the most sexy and mature time in a woman's life. The woman named Xi Lian kept looking at Alan after seeing him. Her eyes went from indifference at first, to concern, and finally to enthusiasm, almost wanting to swallow Alan in one gulp. When she handed a ransom list to Alan, the stalwart twin peaks that were about to come out lightly brushed Alan's arms, and said softly: "My lord is so young, the city under your governance is just as radiant as you It's alive and well, and I'm interested."

She gave Alan a wink, but she didn't know whether she was interested in the city or Alan himself. Allen could only pretend to be stupid, and said haha: "Since Miss Xi Lian has this interest, please stay in the city for a few days, how about having a good time? Oh, we have a cathedral that has just been completed and opened recently. It is in our city. It is a special scenery, I think Miss Xi Lian will like it."

"Oh, it would be even better if you have an adult to accompany you." Xi Lian bit her lips lightly and stepped back with a smile.

The other messenger looked much more arrogant. He looked at Xi Lian with disdain and snorted before handing over the ransom list and another letter from Dawn Castle. Allen picked out the letter and asked, "This is it?"

The messenger snorted and said, "This is a letter written to you by Sir Unicorn, the great and powerful Viscount Daniel. We have lost this time, so we have nothing to say. Even if the ransom is paid, our commander must be redeemed." Go. But as for the war indemnity, we will not pay it. The reason is in the letter from Lord Viscount, please read it yourself.”

Allen smiled slightly and said without reading it: "Since it is a personal letter from a Lord Viscount, I will not ask for your war indemnity for the sake of this Lord. As for the two commanders, from this moment up, and they are free."

The messenger was a little surprised, and couldn't believe that Alan was so easy to talk to. He agreed to waive the war indemnity without even reading Daniel's letter. This overly smooth negotiation process made him a little uncomfortable. After taking some time to adjust, the messenger told himself that it was Allen who was afraid of the viscount.

It wasn't until after he left that he suddenly felt that Allen threw away Daniel's letter with a bit of contempt and rudeness, not just fear?

"My lord is really refreshing. I don't know if other aspects are also so refreshing." Xi Lian said pointedly, and then left with a smile, so as to send the commander of her side back as soon as possible.

Allen shook his head, the emissary Bauhinia is really a bit difficult to deal with. After thinking about it, he decided to throw this hot potato to Roy.

After arranging the affairs of Storm City, Edward also came to sit in the city, and Allen took the team away with confidence to go to Violet Harbor for the appointment. This time he took some of Shanwang, Dark Blade, and Inch Fire to form a 40-man army. Allen believes that even if there are any dangers encountered on the way, this team is enough to deal with any situation.

As for the strong, he brought Regis, Belmode and Qila with him. Although Qila's strength is not outstanding, she used to be an adventurer, and her knowledge should be higher than that of Allen and others. And this time with Belmode, Allen also wanted to let them strengthen their relationship. After reaching Violet Harbor, another Willick will be added. There are basically no enemies in Violet Port now, and there is no need to waste Willick's elite combat power all the time.

As for Adele and Lucy, Allen didn't bring any of them this time. The former is still continuing to raise funds, and the latter is joining the team of Lins and is working on the development of the weapon workshop.

So after Allen left, when Xi Lian saw that the person in charge of entertaining her changed from Allen to Roy, the woman's eyes were slightly disappointed. But looking at Roy carefully, the tall figure, gray pupil color and a layer of indifference naturally exuded from his body gradually attracted her. And the night before leaving the city, Roy conquered her body. Until leaving Storm City, Xi Lian still couldn't forget the touching feeling when the strong man opened his city gate with a powerful impact.

For Roy, this encounter is a small seasoning in the process of fighting in Outland.

It has been six days since I arrived at Violet Port. After passing through the arch of the port city again, and heading towards the city along the winding mountain road, Allen breathed the slightly fishy sea breeze. Immediately, he was refreshed. After all, this was the third time he had come to this city. And every time I come, the mood is different. The first time was to break down the city's barriers and find business opportunities for Sur City; the second time was to establish a cooperative relationship with several chambers of commerce in the city. That time he gained both friends and enemies; this time If you want to go to the hinterland of the empire through this city, the mood is different.

Allen first met Willick on Oriole Street, and then came to one of the piers in Violet Harbor as indicated in Roger's invitation letter. But when they entered the port terminal, they were stopped by someone. I don't know when a roadblock was set up here, and a tree trunk was placed between the two wooden frames, sealing off the passage several meters wide. A banner was also tied to the barricade, with a picture of a shark swimming in a sea of ​​blood.

"Stop!" A burly man holding a fire/gun yelled, "What are you doing? If you want to go there, each person will pay 5 gold coins, and the horses and goods will not be included."

Allen frowned: "We are Mr. Roger's guests."

"Roger? That slave trader?" The big man laughed, and said with a cold face: "What is Roger in front of our Blood Shark Chamber of Commerce, since you are his guests, then you can go there, and the fee will be doubled! "

Allen was a little surprised, he hadn't heard of any Blood Shark Chamber of Commerce in Violet Harbor. Moreover, the other party's attitude was very rude, and his face became gloomy at the moment. Seeing Alan's face sinking, Willick and Belmode suddenly looked at the big man in front of them with ill intentions, and the aura exuding from them formed a huge pressure. Sweat came out of the big man's forehead, and he shouted back: "Come on, damn it, Roger's people want to make trouble!"

As soon as he yelled, more than 20 men ran over to the pier immediately. They held fire/guns or swords in their hands, and they looked menacing.

Allen snorted coldly: "The king of the mountain will only hurt you if you don't die. I want to see what the Blood Shark Chamber of Commerce is!"
