The effect of the "Divinity" ability is very powerful. It can allow the paladin to transform into a giant that is almost four times the original height in about half a minute, and at the same time, the weapons and armor on his body will also become larger.
As the size of the paladin increases, the strength of the paladin will increase explosively, and the power of weapons and armor will also increase. In Sui Xiong's experiment, a believer who used this ability was able to fight off six believers who were originally as strong as him and joined forces. The combat power can be said to be like a rocket soaring into the sky.
But this ability also has shortcomings. It can be dispelled by the "Dispel Magic" spell, or it can be dispelled by powerful negative energy. The paladin who becomes a giant will not gain any enhancement in intelligence, will or agility, so such as Spells such as confusion and slowdown can also work on him. If you are facing a team of mid-level adventurers with reasonable combinations and rich combat experience, even if you use this ability, you can only gain a temporary advantage.
But when dealing with monsters, these problems are no longer a problem. For example, if during today's battle, a certain paladin displays this ability, then he can gain the powerful power to confront the Wild Boar King head-on in a short period of time. He can even knock down the Wild Boar King directly with his bulk, and then A knife stabbing me to the core.
After the paladins obtained this ability, they studied it for a while and smiled happily.
They were happy that they had become stronger, and they were even more happy to have received the affirmation from His Majesty the Mask of the Void.
To the clergy, the latter is more pleasing than the former.
After Sui Xiong recovered all the injuries and energy of the priests, he left—or, in other words, pretended to leave. And this news soon reached the ears of Baron Dar.
"His Majesty the Mask of the Void just came incarnate and gave the paladins the ability to temporarily turn into giants?" He pondered for a while, not connecting this matter with the goblin chief, but thinking about the future with the Church of the Mask of the Void. Problems with getting along.
Originally, according to his plan, he was going to take advantage of this winter sweep to weaken the power of the Void Mask Church, and it would be best to kill one or two of them. In this way, after the sweep is over, he can launch an attack on the night of the celebration and eliminate them in one fell swoop.
But now it seems that this plan is not appropriate.
The jellyfish god was more protective than the legend said, and his priests suffered a defeat. He immediately descended on the incarnation impatiently and gave them the ability to deal with the giant beasts. I have never even heard of a god like this before, let alone seeing it.
(Could it be that... there is a so-called "elect" or "holy son" among those clergy?)
Baron Dahl pondered secretly, feeling that his guess might have some truth to it.
In this case, his plan will have to be adjusted.
Killing a few ordinary priests is not a big deal, but killing the Son of God or the elect is a blatant attempt to tease the god's beard, and it is an act of seeking death to the point of seeking death.
Not to mention that there is no powerful god behind Baron Dar. Even if he has a backer, he will never make fun of his own wealth and life.
No matter how powerful the backer is, it may not be reliable at critical moments. Isn’t there a proverb that says that you can only rely on yourself to be the most reliable!
The way to "rely on one's own" is to change the policy and stop going against the Church of the Mask of the Void, or at least, don't do it all.
He can suppress them, he can find ways to cause trouble for them, and he can also use the winter sweeps to kill one or two of them, but he must not deal with them directly. This is the bottom line and must never be touched!
In fact, Baron Dar had given up his plan to kill several clergymen. Since there is no intention to wipe out all the priests of Masked Void Church in Darland, there is no point in killing a few people. It is just to let the other party send more people over.
As a descendant of a businessman, Baron Dahl is happy to do evil, but if he doesn't get any reward for doing evil, he is also willing to pretend to be harmless, or pretend to be "I still follow the rules".
Businessmen can sell anything, including conscience and morality, as long as the price is right. In other words, without a suitable price, why should you sell your moral conscience or your glorious image
Is it a shame
After deciding on a new policy, Baron Dahl began to vaguely show his favor to the Church of the Mask of the Void. He does not expect to turn enemies into friends with each other - judging from each other's moral orientation, he knows that this is absolutely impossible. He just hopes to strengthen communication with each other so that they can cooperate a little bit when needed.
Of course, we will definitely still have conflicts in the future, but contradictions are contradictions and cooperation is cooperation. There is no delay in the two.
He first sent people to deliver fresh vegetables and meat to the clergy, which puzzled the clergy who had been eating dry food for several days and even making soup with leaves. Afterwards, he sent his second son to visit the Kabbalah priest, expressing his great yearning for the miraculous methods of the Church of the Mask of the Void, and asking if he could learn from them.
The Kabbalah priest is even more confused. He comes from a merchant family that serves the nobles. He has some understanding of the etiquette and rules of the nobles. He knows that this means that Baron Dar has recognized the official legal status of the Church of the Mask of the Void, and even tried to win over them. the meaning of. But... why would Baron Dahl do this
So he didn't agree rashly, but put it off for the time being, and then held a meeting with the church members while they were camping that night.
"What exactly does Baron Dahl mean?" He told his guess, and then looked at everyone in confusion, "Didn't he try to suppress us before? Why are you trying to win over us now?"
"Probably because they found out that we are very strong." The sword that had been rewarded by Sui Xiong before, and the special ability "Divine Power" yesterday, the bear-like paladin was full of confidence at the moment and said with a smile, "A leader Mainly to stabilize your rule, of course you need to have good relations with the powerful forces in the territory."
"That's true, but we were quite strong before." The Kabbalah priest shook his head, "Supposedly, after the first battle, he should have known that we were very strong, but why didn't he show it until now? "
"Could it be that His Majesty's incarnation touched him?" the older pastor guessed. "His Majesty's deep and broad power infected him and made him yearn for kindness and progress. This is also very possible. Yes."
A standard priestly idea, but still not enough to convince the Kabbalah priest.
Of course he knew that his majesty was kind and progressive, but he didn't think he could infect Baron Dahl.
Shortly after arriving in Dal City, he had quietly cast a spell to detect the camp. In the eyes of the baptism of divine power, it can be clearly seen that Baron Dahl is a complete bad guy. Such a person will change his mind just because he feels the greatness of his Majesty
Hey, please stop joking, okay
After some discussion, everyone could not come to any decent conclusion. The final plan was to remain unchanged in response to changes. No matter what Baron Dahl did, they just had to do their part.
Priests are not politicians, so what’s the point of thinking so much!
