Two weeks later, the bard came back. He not only brought his relatives, but also several colleagues, and these colleagues brought his relatives, about 80 people in total.
If we only talk about the number of people in a few households, this is too much, but if we look at the urban population, it is very small.
When Harris registered the household registration, he found that there were more than ten people who could read and write, and there were more than a dozen people with special expertise, which was a surprise.
But it is a pity that there are only more than 20 of them who are willing to believe in Goddess Woking, and they are all without much talent. But it doesn't matter, Beta believes that under the policies he formulated and inspired by the teachings of the gods, most of them will soon become shallow believers in the Woking Temple.
After several bards settled their families, they took Beta's money and went out to promote Woking City for him.
Emma has been staying in Woking City for almost two months, and has been refusing to go back, always saying that the journey is too far, there is no other way, so Beta had no choice but to set up a teleportation magic circle in the basement of the City Lord's Mansion.
With convenient transportation, Emma went back to live in her lord for a few days, but when she came again, she actually brought her mother, the former queen Angel, with her.
Angel was also surprised by the change in the wetland, and then forcefully occupied a room in the City Lord's Mansion.
Beta can only say that like a mother, like a daughter.
Emma and Beta have a very good relationship, and it doesn't matter whether they send a maid to serve her. Anyway, Emma is also very independent, and she can solve many small things by herself.
But Angel is different, this is the former queen, Beta thought for a while, and pointed Julie to serve her.
Ever since she came to the wetland, Julie has seen Beta and Shirley transform the swamp that is not suitable for human habitation into a fertile plain, and she has also seen their hard work and efforts.
In her heart, Julie didn't hate Shirley and Beta. She knew how she and Joshua stood up from the dangerous quagmire and became a master. She also knew very well that Beta didn't target Joshua at the beginning. Ya, it was Joshua Yatai who was too proud and wanted to use his benefactor to do things for him, which caused the conflict.
When she came to Woking City, she originally wanted to find a chance to escape, but then she thought about it, she is a weak woman, where can she find Joshua if she escapes, and the outside world is very dangerous, she might as well stay here, at least it will be safe Much, she could see that Beta had no interest in herself.
Moreover, as long as Joshua still has the slightest affection for him, he will come to this city to find him sooner or later.
With this in mind, Julie stayed in Woking to work with peace of mind.
Everyone has their own ideas, including little people, whether it is right or wrong, it is always their own decision. But many times, the decisions I make are just the result of guidance, such as fate.
Also for example... the general trend.
The former is the behind-the-scenes play of conspirators, while the latter is the self-promotion of the will of the entire world.
Jihad is the general trend.
Amanda came back from the Frost Star Kingdom and brought back many troubled talents. She also received a reward from Beta, a gold coin sacrifice, which pushed her merchant level from lv1 to lv3.
When the Frostwolf clan settled in Woking City, although they had friction with the locals at first, after getting along for a while, they also adapted to the laws of Woking City.
Then, many bards who went out came back, and at the same time they brought back new news... In other countries, the Vulcan Cult and the Storm God Cult officially declared war.
Emma soon received an oracle from the Goddess of Storms. As a saint, she was preparing to go to the country of Garucha to participate in the battle.
At this moment, Beta realized that the jihad he had been worrying about was finally coming. Although this was just a fight between the Sect of the Storm God and the Sect of the Vulcan Worshiper, he knew that this was the trigger, and the jihad that would soon spread to the whole world was about to start vigorously.
Emma left, but the former Queen Angel stayed. Her words were straightforward and reasonable: "Emma is going to Garucha, and I am a weak woman. If I stay in Isnes, maybe I will be bullied by people with bad intentions, so I have to stay here, at least safe. I won’t drag my daughter down”
Angel put her hips on her hips and raised her chest, triumphantly. Although she was already a mature woman, the delicate girlish posture did not make people feel disobedient. There is no shortage of rooms in the city lord's mansion, and the other party's words are nice and reasonable, so Beta can only admit it with her nose pinched.
Since the jihad is coming, the Woking Temple naturally has to be careful. Beta left Shirley in Woking City and teleported to the Bronze Drum City by himself. He called Shalo and Katie together and told them to pay attention to protecting the Bronze Drum City. It was a hard-won situation, and I told the two of them all the situations that are likely to happen during the jihad, and repeatedly told the two to be careful and cautious in everything.
Then he teleported to Winterwind City and talked with Kyle for a while.
Beta found that Kyle's body was full of dead energy. Of course, the dead energy was not exuded by Kyle, but contaminated.
Beta was a little curious and asked what was going on.
Kyle sat on the chair and said with a wry smile: "Recently, there have been a lot of bear people, and I feel that I can't kill them all. I feel a little tired from killing them."
Beta frowned: "How about Reed Village?"
"This is thanks to the big city wall you built in advance, not to mention the bear people, even us humans are very difficult to capture, and a small village does not have much property, so the bear people are not interested in Reed Village, it is very safe there. "
After a pause, Kyle poured a glass of fruit wine for Beta, and then asked, "You came here on a special trip this time, and you didn't just come to chat with me, did you? There should be other things."
"Well. The jihad is about to begin." Beta sighed: "For ambitious people, this is a rare opportunity, but for ordinary people, it is another catastrophe. I don't know how many people will disappear in the In this holy war."
Kyle was also silent. He is a brave man, and he is naturally resistant to such things. After a while, he rubbed his forehead and asked, "Is there no way to avoid the occurrence of holy war?"
"The chessboard of the gods is not something that small chess pieces like us can jump out of." Beta's eyes hid a faint light: "Unless we also have the strength to be chess players."
Although Beta's words seemed very relaxed and bland, Kyle could hear an evil spirit, an evil spirit not willing to be manipulated.
He knew that his teacher was not an ordinary person, but aiming at the gods was no longer what normal human beings should have.
After being stunned for a while, Kyle suddenly remembered something: "By the way, there is something I must tell you, teacher. Alice was taken away by the elves."
