Chapter 8: One City, One God, One Kingdom (II)


Who is Amon most afraid of seeing?

It was none other than his father, after all, the power of the legendary powerhouse was really not something he could measure, and he didn't know if the other party could see his abnormality.Simply, a legendary warrior is still a warrior after all, his muscles are more developed than his brain, and no matter how Wade's interruption is, it will only pass in a hurry.After the welcoming ceremony was over, Amon did not go home, but went to the great library in one of the grandest buildings on Quran Street, not far from the temple.The Great Library of Kelmar City was established under the initiative of Paris, and its architectural style combines the rugged atmosphere of the ancient Mongolian clan and the exquisite and peculiar spirit of the elves, which can be called the most distinctive building in the entire Kelmar City, except for the temple and the Colosseum.Amon strolls along the winding grey stone path, surrounded by cyan stone walls and withered yellow vines, and although it is winter, it is not cold, and there is a strange fragrance that fills the mind.Stepping through a wooden door, he entered a large library, where he saw rows and rows of bookshelves displaying neatly stacked books and scrolls, and in the corners some stone carvings, wood carvings, and even tortoiseshell animal skins.A small number of these books are inherited from the ancient Mongolian clan and classics from the High Silver Moon Elves, and many more are caravans from the caravans of Kelmar City over the years.Because of Paris's attention, books are the bulk of the caravans in Kelmar City at every trade fair, and caravans in other cities are also happy to send these small and easy to carry goods in exchange for high prices.Of course, the quality of the books obtained in this way is naturally worrying, and most of them are stories and travelogues.Amon walked without stopping, stepping across the rows of bookshelves, and finally stopped at a corner, he bowed and saluted, "Teacher Agudi, I'm here." ”Hearing the voice, Agudi, who was buried in his books, finally raised his head, he was a standard elf handsome guy, with a handsome appearance and elegant posture, even if it was just a gesture of raising his head, he could show his excellent demeanor, but the whiteness of his temples showed that he was no longer young.Even in terms of the elf's lifespan, Agudi will enter old age, and the years will show signs on him, but it will also bring him an unimaginable wealth of experience and knowledge.He was not only the caster mentor chosen by Paris for Amun, but also the enlightenment mentor of Amun's siblings when they were young, and the etiquette, language, characters, and arithmetic foundations of the three were taught by him.Although Agudi has a silent personality, he is not old-fashioned, always speaking and acting slowly, not slowly, and has no contact with the eccentric spellcasters recorded in the books, and even has a better temper than most people in Kelmar City.Still, he always has a way to submit a mischievous Alice and a tendony Wade.Whether it's an interesting story or a magical spell, just a few words, he can arouse your interest and obediently complete the learning task according to his requirements.Amun, who had been that one, had great respect for this teacher, and although he admired the glory and strength of the Gumeng clan, he also admired the calm wisdom of this understatement.He rejects the practice of spellcasters, but he is a regular visitor to the library.In fact, Amon can convince Wade, but not just family affection, he has many excellent qualities, most of which he learned from this mentor.Agudi didn't say much, just stretched out his hand and pointed in a direction, and said, "I found some more books you want, on the third shelf in the second row." ”After speaking, he lowered his head again, holding the book in one hand and writing something on the parchment scroll next to him in the other, Amon was used to his style, and he didn't talk nonsense, he bowed again, and walked away again.There are libraries in this world, but books cannot be as rich and professional as the world in memory, and they are more messy when they are arranged, and there is no such thing as a consolidated catalog.If you don't have someone you know to help you choose, the process of searching for it will take a lot of time.In the second row, next to the third shelf, Amon stood still, his gaze swept across the title page of the book Winter Solstice City Travels to the Savage Wasteland Top Ten Horror Monsters Gulliver Stories of the Great Lion Nubien Diros City Storm Expedition Chronicles Yes, these are indeed the books that Amon is most interested in at this stage, he doesn't pick them, he glances at them with his cross arms, just takes them all, puts them down in a corner of the reading area, quietly opens them, and reads them.Amon reads books quickly, does not read meticulously, and rarely chases between the lines, but as he flips through the pages, bits and pieces about the world converge in his mind and fill in a huge outline.And he sat for hours, when the sky was about to darken, Amon finally woke up from reading, he closed his eyes, pressed his temples slightly, but what flashed in his mind was what he had gained from these days.For half a month, Amon read a lot of books, although they were not detailed, but combined with the memories of the past and the knowledge of another soul, they gave him a general understanding of the world.This world, or this continent is called Wharton, can be translated as the first field.In Amon's opinion, this name is appropriate, because everything here seems primitive and savage, still in the nascent stage of Ming.The wilderness here is extremely dangerous, the terrible and changeable natural environment and the unknown Jedi are countless, and the wild growth of demonic beasts threatens the safety of humans at all times, and this forces most of the humans to build cities and live together.In other words, this is the origin of the city, a city, and the scope of what the city can protect, that is, a country.And each kingdom has its own ruling class and beliefs.At first, when Amon looked at the world from the knowledge and perspective of another soul, there was always a doubt in his heart that even the recorded history of the ancient Mongolian clan had been thousands of years, and a thousand years was enough time for the city-states with similar regions to become familiar with each other.Especially after the domestication of various camel beasts and the opening of roads, the communication between caravans has strengthened the connection between various city-states.For each city-state, it is naturally beneficial to communicate with each other, but if there are more connections, there will be friction, and if there is friction, there will be contradictions, and when the contradictions cannot be coordinated, wars will inevitably break out.Under the war, there are city-states that grow and some city-states are annihilated, the weak eat the strong, and the survival of the fittest is the most common rule in the world.What puzzled Amon was that this kind of war and annexation should have given rise to a larger, more radiant system of power, such as principalities, kingdoms, and even unified empires.According to the law of development in another world, everything should be like this, but the reality is that the millennium has fallen, the city-state is still a city-state, and the unified regime is still nowhere to be found.This strangeness bothered Amon for a long time, and it was not until his cognition expanded and he understood more deeply that an answer took shape in his mind.Because there is a god in this world!

At Wharton, the gods are no longer symbols, they are no longer nothing, they are still unreachable, far away from mortals, but they are real and immortal.Their majesty is far-reaching, their power is enough to break through the rocks, they control the development of cities with their churches and oracles, and they accept the faith of mortals.Cities can be destroyed, people can be killed, but as long as the gods do not abandon their people and faith does not perish, it is difficult to have true conquest.And this has led to the fact that the system of one city, one god, that is, a country, has continued to this day, and as far as the eye can see, it seems that there is no possibility of change.Of course, these are only Amun's personal obscure views, and he will not say them to others, nor do he dare to say them, because the field of faith is mostly unreasonable.Moreover, perhaps the existence of God hindered the emergence of a unified empire, but it was also because of the existence of God that human beings were able to survive in this nascent and dangerous world.In the case of Kelmar, for example, the ancient Mon people believe in Kod, the god of strength and courage, a god who loves to push limits and be powerful.He encouraged people to resolve conflicts in certain forms of sports that were not fatally dangerous, and believed that the strong and healthy must lead the weak.He even decreed that bravery was the best, noblest, and most positive quality that a person must possess.At this point, the rulers are the same as the common people, and anyone has the right to ridicule and despise the coward.Of course, Kord wasn't a good-natured deity, he was irascible and irritable, and while he was challenged to go beyond his limits, he hated intrigue.He is never afraid to fight, and the dragon-slaying giant sword in his hand, Kelma, is ready to charge with his master at any time.When He is hurt, He enters a state of rage, wielding his greatsword to crush any enemy who stands in His way.Kod was also generous to his followers, and he gave the Gumeng not only a fanatical fighting spirit and a will not to fear death, but also a real talent to start the Gumeng clan's battle.Specifically, every citizen of Kelmar is eligible to be baptized in the temple, and the truly pious will receive Kord's bounty, the power of natural favor!

The system of the natural favor of the ancient Mongolian clan is complex and complicated, because when you study it carefully, there are too many types of it; It can be said that it is simple and simple, because there are only a few mainstream systems.In order of high and low, the most inferior talent is called strong, which can endow the ancient Mongolian people with a physique far beyond ordinary people, and with the corresponding training, it can definitely achieve the most solid foundation for warriors.In the upper tier, it is called Great Power, and this talent gives the talent owner an extra amount of great strength in addition to strengthening the body.The Legion of the City Splitter, one of the three legions of Kelmar City, recruits warriors with great talents, and their standard weapons are only three types of battle axes, shields, and javelins.Their fighting style can be called simple and brutal, that is, mid-to-long-range javelins, plus melee charges.When the enemy approaches, first come a round of javelin throwing, with the blessing of great power, the javelin can be hundreds of blades of the hole in the golden cracked stone, the power is terrifying.After that, they lined up and charged with their shields, and as long as they couldn't catch their impact, they would be killed by them.Of course, even if you can't die, there is still the last tomahawk harvest, and once you slip down, it will be as simple as cutting leeks.The third-class talent is called rage, a strong warrior never only has a strong physique and combat experience, but also has the will to never give up in the face of any desperate situation, and rage in addition to the physique and great strength, what can be given is the warrior's heart that never fears.In Kelmar City, there are very few warriors who can possess the talent of berserk, and they will be dubbed berserk warriors regardless of their strength.As long as it is human, it is impossible to erase the fear of death, even the ancient Mongolian warriors have precedents of surrendering on the battlefield, but this does not include berserk warriors.As for the fourth-class innate power, it is also a high-level fury that only Kord's favorite believers, or the lineage of the Odoyak family, can awaken.Physically strong, self-controlled, fearless, and always calm, these traits create warriors like Kord's gaze on his most beloved followers, each of whom is a terrible butcher on the battlefield that no one dares to face.For example, Amon's younger brother, Wade Odoyak, has the power of a high berserk talent.It is also because of this that he is only young, and he can advance to a high-level warrior, and even have the ability to fight the two-headed bull monster, and he can hardly catch the six breaths of the bull monster without damage, and win the last battle.And countless warriors have studied the strength realm they have pursued all their lives, but they have appeared in a young man who is only seventeen years old.Therefore, the gods of the high rage aka Kord, as the name suggests, are nothing more than the real gods.As for Amon, he was and is a weak chicken, baptized at the age of three, not to mention the exclusive talent of the Odoyak family, he didn't even get the strongest of the second.His awakened talent for favor wanders outside the mainstream system and is known as Nightmare.In the past, Amon thought that this nightmare was the most useless power of favor, a disgusting existence, but now, he knew that it was not so simple.Because, the reason why he came here is because of this waste wood ability.
