Global Age of Gods

It took Lin Xiao almost four days to get out of the forest. On the third day, he found a small hut in the forest. It seemed to be a place for hunters to rest in the forest. He followed the traces to find the way down the mountain. After wandering around for a long time, he finally found it.

The way people come out.

Fortunately, he had prepared a set of leather armor this time. Replacing it with thick plate armor would be too much even with his current physique.

When passing through a bush, ahead is a wilderness half as tall as a man and overgrown with weeds. Looking into the distance, you can vaguely see the faint shadow of thatched huts in the distance in the wilderness, as well as puffs of faint blue smoke.

“There are villages!”

He simply tidied up and walked over to the other side through the weeds that were half a person tall.

This wasteland is a real wasteland, full of insects and venomous snakes. I am afraid I may have stepped on more than ten venomous snakes along the way.

Venomous snakes are nothing. His leather boots have very high defense and cannot be penetrated by venomous fangs. The main problem is the small bugs that always sneak in through the gaps in the leather armor unknowingly.

If you are in other planes, you can still emit totem aura and shock these little bugs, but in this magic-free plane, the power of the totem cannot be used at all. The talents or abilities of any totem master are disabled here, and can only be obtained by becoming a totem master.

The powerful physique and strength can be used.

The power of the physical body is the most universal power in all the worlds. No matter how powerful the physical body is in the crystal wall universe, it cannot be disabled.

It can be used even in a world where only souls and spiritual bodies can exist, but the prerequisite is that you can have a physical body in that world.

He almost walked all the way to the village. Before he got close, he was spotted by two militiamen wearing linen clothes and holding wooden guns on a wooden sentry tower at the entrance of the village. The two militiamen saw him as if he were fully armed.

He raised his spear like an enemy and shouted:

“￥#@#@%#…?”

He quickly raised his hand and shouted:

“￥#@#&￥”

This is the language of this world. Lin Xiao understands it a little bit. He had learned the lingua franca of this world in the fortress for half a month before.

But the time was too little and I only learned a rough idea. I could only understand a few words. Then I used this vocabulary and combined with the current situation to guess a rough idea. What the two militiamen said should be "stop, don't get close" or something like that.

Lin Xiao put the long-handled cleaver into its sheath to show that he meant no harm, then took out a tree sculpture from his back and held it in front of him, using half-baked common language of this plane and gestures, which made the two militiamen look puzzled.

.

Fortunately, his action of sheathing the sword could be regarded as a release of kindness in this world. The two militiamen were able to endure it and listened to his half-baked words and continued gestures. It took a long time to respond with half-understanding.

After spending a lot of time communicating, the village was alarmed and a large group of people came out to watch the show. It was almost half an hour before he was allowed to enter the village.

But they were only allowed to stay at the entrance of the village and were not allowed to enter the village. Obviously, they were still very wary.

Lin Xiao didn't mind this at all. He took out two silver coins, bought some tableware and tools from the villagers, and settled down here temporarily.

A village is a standard starting place.

It's not that he started to spread his faith here. He wasn't going to rush to spread his faith before he figured out the situation in the early stage. He just wanted to see if he could hire some strong boys here and build a small team first.

Of course, although there is no rush to spread faith, preparatory preparation is still necessary.

After buying tools and tableware with silver coins, in front of many villagers and children who were watching, Lin Xiao quietly took out a ring and put it on, then placed the empty tableware on the table and made it according to the standard prayer ceremony of his family members before meals.

They made a set, and every move was full of religious rituals, which made these villagers and children very curious.

After a standard prayer ceremony, he quietly activated the dining table summoning spell that came with the ring. Suddenly, like magic, the empty dinner plate in front of him was filled with all kinds of delicious food, which immediately caused the surrounding onlookers to exclaim.

Lin Xiao ignored the shocked and disbelieving looks and distributed most of the summoned food to the surrounding villagers, leaving only a small portion for himself.

As mentioned in the course about preaching and managing beliefs that I learned during my freshman year of high school, in the early stages of spreading beliefs, different methods are needed to face different intelligent creatures.

For example, when facing a scholar, you can talk to him about knowledge and truth. As long as you crush him with an absolutely overwhelming advantage in the field he is best at, and make him awe, then after being good at tempting and attracting differences, you will become a scholar.

It is possible to develop him into a believer.

If you face a warrior with powerful strength, then you have to talk about force and power. In most foreign worlds, force represents power and wealth.

At this time, Lin Xiao faced the farmer, and it was useless to talk or brag. He could just use food from Chiguoguo to seduce him.

Don’t tell them that if they believe in God, they will get food. Lip service is useless. Actually tell them that if they devoutly believe in the true God, they will get food. This is more useful than anything else.

Therefore, when the onlookers actually ate the food and confirmed that it was real, the news quickly spread throughout the village.

Normal people would tend to use iron-clad magic sticks to preach at this time, but Lin Xiao did not do that. Instead, he drew his sword and slashed open a stone pillar that was taller than a person at the entrance of the village. He rejected the offer of the village leader with a gentle tone.

Unreasonable demands.

Lin Xiao has his own unique way and talent in managing his faith.

This contrary behavior not only did not anger the villagers, but instead made them feel in awe, especially the middle-aged young men in the village, who admired him greatly after seeing him cut a stone with one knife and then easily lift a boulder of several thousand kilograms with one hand.

"Your Excellency Rolle is definitely a powerful knight. I bet the Baron is not that powerful either."

Several young men in their prime were sitting in the shade of a tree and watching Lin Xiao not far away, holding a huge stone sword more than two meters long cut out of stone and swinging it casually as if it were nothing, with even more admiration in their eyes.

The best way to impress such young and strong men is to show force. It doesn't even need to show high-end force. Just the initial strength that surpasses ordinary people has already made them astonished.

He practiced a certain set of sword skills that he had learned before becoming a totem master's apprentice several times. He put away his sword and stood up, blowing out a breath of white breath and hitting the wooden stake with a "snap" sound. Even though several young and strong young men had seen it many times, they still

Shocked.

Putting a stone sword weighing hundreds of kilograms on the shelf, he waved to a few young and strong men not far away.

"Sir Rohr is calling us?"

A strong young man ran over excitedly. He picked up the white cloth beside him and wiped his hands, and asked casually:

"Do you want to learn?"

The young men widened their eyes and thought they heard wrongly. The young man leaned back and nodded hurriedly:

"We want to learn!"

"Very good, come to my place every morning from now on."

Half a month later, at dawn, Lin Xiao got up slowly and politely, opened the door, and found a dozen young men of different ages on the ground outside the door practicing with wooden weapons.

There was already a washbasin filled with well water and a wet towel next to the well. I simply washed my face and mouth, then came to the flat ground with my sword in hand and watched them practice.

I definitely won't be able to produce anything after more than ten days of training, but at least I have something.

He didn't teach anything substantive in the past half month. He just taught a simple routine, which at most served the purpose of exercising the body and did not involve other strength.

The main function these days is to hone their willpower and select young people with a certain level of willpower.

After watching for a while, he went back to the house and moved out a large stone nest and several large bags filled with herbs he asked the villagers to pick.

Of course, these herbs have no effect and are not formulas. They are just randomly picked by the villagers, mainly to cover up the pills they plan to make later.

If nothing else happens, these young men will become his first batch of subordinates, and they will naturally need to be strengthened a little.

In addition, after he showed his hand to call for food every day for half a month, many villagers in this village have imitated his actions and prayed before each meal.

Although it's of no use and I haven't sensed any power of faith now, it's a good start.

He learned from the information he occasionally communicated with the villagers. At the same time, he took the time to go out for field inspections in the past half month and learned that the village he was in now was ruled by a baron family called Gibson. The baron's name was Herman Gibson.

, the family rules a small town and eight villages, as well as a large area of ​​wasteland, a forest and a small iron mine around it.

The Gibson family has a castle between the town named Gibson and the iron mine. It is said that they have raised five knights and more than 40 full-time warriors. They can summon more than 150 young men in battle, and their strength is among the best in the barony.

Average is average.

The so-called knight, like the knight in most foreign worlds, refers to a strong man with physique and strength that far exceeds that of ordinary people.

Because there is no extraordinary power in this world, there is also no so-called fighting spirit. He quietly went to Baron Gibson's castle and met the so-called knights. They were elite warriors with more than three times the physique and strength of normal men, equipped with superb fighting skills and

The elite weapons and armor can crush ordinary farmers like chopping melons and vegetables.

Now there are two roads before Lin Xiao. One is to develop faith in a peaceful way, find ways to preach at the bottom, and then influence the nobles and follow the religious route.

The other is to use force to preach, using strong force to force faith among the civilians. To put it simply, you become a powerful lord and force the people to believe in the name of the lord.

There are pros and cons to both routes, but it is certain that proselytizing by force is more difficult.

But this is the best choice under the current circumstances. After all, this is not a safe world. Sixty-six sons of nightmares and sons of the spirit realm are watching and may eliminate him at any time. He must have enough force.

protect yourself.

Then, the only way to preach is through force.

Of course, this does not mean that he has to train an army to defeat the baron and become a noble himself. Although this is also a way, it is too troublesome. Lords' campaigns have always been troublesome.

Lin Xiao planned to combine the church with force, protect the church with force, and then use faith to unite many nobles.
