Bud was shocked: "How do you know that you are a militiaman? It's not so easy to be a professional."
In many cases, nobles are not incapable of becoming professionals, but impatient. Because of the basic necessities of life, they have healthier bodies, smarter minds, and more material resources than ordinary people.
But why are there still so few nobles who can become professionals? That's because they are used to fine clothes and fine food, and to a comfortable life, so asking them to exercise every day is tantamount to killing them.
Therefore, among the nobles, there are not many people who can become professionals. Aristocrats like Emma who are not only talented but also hardworking are very rare.
Joyce smiled slightly at Bud. He took out three silver coins from his clothes, stacked them together, and then pressed his fingers slightly, and the three silver coins were bent immediately.
Bud stared at the three bent silver coins, slightly dazed.
It is very easy for a flexible person to bend one silver coin, but it is a bit difficult to bend two silver coins. If three silver coins are stacked together at the same time, if you can bend them with your fingers, it means that the person who applied the force has great power. , or special abilities.
This is indeed a characteristic that only professionals can have.
Bud let out a suffocated breath, and he asked, "Your Excellency is a militiaman by profession?"
Joyce nodded vigorously, and he asked excitedly, "Is the profession of militia powerful?"
"As long as you are a professional, you are not weak, it depends on your ability to use it. Work hard or not." Bud is very clear that the profession of militia is not very powerful, but he does not want to tell the truth to offend anyone: "Your Excellency Joyce When did you realize you were a professional?"
Bud was a little strange. He had met Joyce a few days ago, and he was obviously an ordinary nobleman at that time. But now he has obviously become much younger. Just now, Bud's attention was all on Beta, and now he looked at him, and he did find the difference in the other party.
"Just now at the Temple of Woking, I performed a gold coin sacrifice."
Hearing this, Bard's face changed greatly: "Is it true that you can become a professional just by offering gold coins?"
Joyce responded in the affirmative.
Bud immediately fell into deep thought. Now he finally knew why Beta agreed to his proposal to divide the sphere of influence. It turned out that the other party didn't need to preach to the nobles at all. As long as the Wojin Temple had this ability, they were not afraid that the nobles would not send money.
Was tricked. Bud felt a burning pain in his cheek. Not long ago, he felt that Beta was just an inexperienced young man, but now he felt that the other party must be secretly laughing at himself in his heart.
He hadn't tasted such a gap and humiliation for more than ten years, and he almost forgot what it was like.
The ability of the Woking Temple must be 'sealed'. Bard returned to the temple, after thinking for a while, he called all the priests in the temple, closed the door, and held a meeting that outsiders could not know the content of.
Joyce is a person who likes to show off. He held a banquet to show off that night. In just one night, almost all the nobles knew about it. Although they had heard that the city lord Greenton's becoming a legend was related to the "gold coin sacrifice" in the Temple of Woking, but no one believed it at the time. After all, if there is such a convenient shortcut to become a strong man, who would work hard what.
But once Joyce held the dinner, and then showed off in front of the nobles, everyone knew about it, and the credibility of the rumors suddenly became higher.
The next day, Joyce brought 200 gold coins to the Temple of Woking, and there were nearly a dozen nobles who followed him. They planned to take a closer look. If it was reliable, they also planned to become professionals After all, they can still afford a few hundred gold coins.
Beta had expected this to happen, and he held a gold coin sacrifice for Joyce. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Joyce comprehended the militia's unique specialty 'All Weapon Proficiency'. The latter was extremely excited, and he couldn't help but demonstrate the fighting methods of several weapons on the spot, without any jerky at all, just like a veteran who has been in the army for a long time.
This is the best live advertisement. Several nobles who followed Joey also brought gold coins, and they asked Beta to sacrifice gold coins for them on the spot.
These few people have also successfully become professionals. Apart from common warriors and mages, one of them has become a rare 'dancer'. This is a support job, very good at socializing.
Everyone went home happily, and soon everyone in Tonggu City knew about this matter. On the second and third days, there were more than a dozen nobles who came to the Wojin Temple to sacrifice gold coins every day. In just two days, the Wojin Temple received nearly 6,000 gold coins.
What is the concept of six thousand gold coins? Greenton's family, with more than 300 years of accumulation, can only collect about 5,000 gold coins, and the Temple of Woking, in just two days, has already earned the equivalent of a big family's 300 years of hard work.
And with the increase of time, this amount of money will still increase.
But on the third morning, none of the nobles came to perform the 'gold coin sacrifice' again. When Beta was wondering, Katie walked in, and she said with an unhappy expression on her face: "Joyce is dead, And the dancer girl is dead too."
"What's going on?" Beta frowned, he could already smell the conspiracy.
"The death of both of them is a broken heart." Katie looked at Beta with some suspicion in his eyes: "Right now, there is a rumor that is bad for our temple among the noble class."
Beta's tone was indifferent: "Say."
"They suspect that the gold coin sacrifice has sequelae. After certain conditions are met, the person who performed the gold coin sacrifice will die."
Beta closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said, "You bring the trained religious guards to guard the temple. And announced to the public that today's prayer is cancelled, and non-members of the temple are not allowed to approach the temple."
When Katie heard this, she was taken aback immediately: "Do you suspect that someone is trying to harm us?"
"It's not suspicious, it's already obvious." Beta snorted, "I'll go to see the dead with Shirley later, I'm afraid that after we leave, the enemy will take advantage of the situation to attack, you must be careful, fight ten Divide the spirit, don't let the enemy take advantage of it, understand?"
It was rare for Katie to see such a serious look on Beta, and she nodded solemnly upon hearing this.
An hour later, Beta and Shirley showed up at Joyce's home.
As the head of the family, Joyce's death naturally dealt a heavy blow to the entire family.
The entire manor was filled with a sad atmosphere. Many families sent people to mourn the funeral that was being held. The arrival of Beta and Xueli immediately attracted the attention of many people. They tilted their heads slightly and whispered.
Joyce's coffin was placed in the backyard, and the grave had been dug and was being prepared for burial.
Joyce's wife, dressed in black, was crying loudly while supporting Joyce's coffin. It sounded heart-piercing, but Beta found it ridiculous, because he could hear joy and relief from the crying.
Beta and Shirley bowed slightly towards the coffin first. Although they were not familiar with Joyce, this was a due courtesy and respect for the deceased.
But a thirteen-year-old boy next to him suddenly jumped up. He pointed at Beta and cursed: "Who let you in, you executioners, get out, get out of here, get out of our house."
There was hatred and sadness in the boy's eyes.
But the surrounding nobles had strange expressions. They looked at Beta with only a little mockery and a little regret.
Beta looked at the little boy and said, "We didn't kill your father. There is nothing wrong with our gold coin sacrifice magic."
"Get out, I don't listen to your explanation, I don't listen to your explanation." The little boy rushed up, punching and kicking Beta.
It's just that he is a child and an ordinary person, how could he do any harm to a master-level powerhouse like Beta. In game terms, this little guy can't even break Beta's defense.
The little boy beat Beta for a while, and finally got tired, and finally knelt down on the ground and howled. Beta believed that among so many people present, only this little boy was truly saddened by Joyce's death.
Beta looked at Joyce's wife: "Madam, I have an unfeeling request, and I ask you to agree."
The middle-aged woman bowed slightly to Beta and said, "Please tell me, Your Excellency."
"I want to do an autopsy..."
The whole scene was silent, and it didn't know when it started to rain lightly in the sky.
It took a while for the middle-aged woman to say, "Good!"
Half an hour later, Beta took Shirley away from Joyce's house, and then went to another deceased's house.
The family seemed very calm about Beta's arrival. He was received by two elderly people, a man and a woman, who were the grandfather and grandmother of the deceased.
Although the expressions of the two old men were indifferent, Beta could still see endless pain and despair in their eyes.
The deceased girl was very beautiful. Even though she was dead, she was still quite amazing. Beta checked her heart, then walked in front of the two old people, and whispered: "Two old people, don't worry, I will avenge your granddaughter."
The two old men just nodded slightly, without speaking.
Beta sighed a long time in his heart. Compared with revenge, these two old people may hope that their granddaughter can come back to life.
There is indeed resurrection magic in this world, and Beta understands it, but he can't cast it. Few people in the world can cast it, because the price that needs to be paid is too harsh, and few people in the world can do it.
Beta left the manor of the deceased and took Shirley back to the temple.
It was already afternoon at this time, but around the temple, there were two teams of religious guards waiting in full force. When they first saw someone coming, they seemed very nervous, but when they saw that it was Beta and Shirley, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
