Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 546: Is it a violent storm?

After figuring this out, Lowry nodded slightly: "That's good, I'm just worried that the other party has more conspiracies."

As long as the Storm Lord and the others know what happened.

Lori could accept all the native gods of this world, even the Dark Night Goddess, who displeased him the most... Whenever he thought of Toril, Lori would naturally feel extremely satisfied and have no other thoughts.

Believe in God and don't worry about him.

If the gods of Toril were willful and arbitrary before they learned to use the power of faith, then they who learned to use the power of faith to strengthen themselves are simply... locusts.

The reason why these people are still doing okay now is that the world's will has suppressed them harshly and resolutely.

But no one knows what will happen next.

Even though Lowry has a good relationship with the Lord of Storms now, if one day, he changes from the initial mutual benefit with believers to an existence that absorbs the power of faith to strengthen himself, Lowry will inevitably immediately separate the two sides.

Changes in supply determine the attitude between God and man.

Lowry isn't leaving anything to chance.

By this point, he actually understood it very well.

The gods have actually long understood the two-sided nature of faith. They don't care because those changes are nothing to their endless lives.

Whether it's indifference or viciousness, it's not directed at themselves.

Although some gods do still have some persistence, these persistences lose their value when faced with threats.

It is true that there are many gods who can handle the relationship between themselves and faith very well, but there are also many emergencies.

Just like Toril.

Lansendel, who once brought hundreds of millions of his elven believers into the kingdom of God, is a vivid example.

Wasn't it that all his persistence over the years was ultimately destroyed by his desire to use his faith to reach above the sun?
The believer he once placed high hopes on did not send him up, but instead brought back the damned Amaunator.

This is the most typical example of the imbalance between gods and faith, which led to the complete collapse of gods.

Afterwards, Lansendel suddenly changed from a young man into a middle-aged man, and even had a daughter with the Earth Goddess... Is that something that a passionate and eternally young man like him could do?
That is a typical case of being changed by faith.

Therefore, Lowry's attitude towards the Lord of Storms is close but not intimate. He will raise issues directly, especially those that are mutually beneficial, but he generally will not proactively offer suggestions to the other party.

Just like at this moment, he was actually a little worried that these gods had underestimated the enemy...Lori was not so confused as to wonder how the Lord of Storm knew the truth when he was not there.

The sun and the moon are naturally good at observation.

But he wouldn't say anything else. He had mentioned it and reminded her, and that was it.

The Lord of Storms sighed, “We can’t be sure whether what we did is right or not, after all, it’s all in the hands of fate.

I can only follow the original agreement with the Sun and ignore anything that happens in secret. If anyone really shows up, I will strangle him to death.

We have been doing this for so many years and there haven't been any major mistakes.

Even though there have been more and more things happening recently, I can still handle it.”

He hesitated for a moment and then smiled and said, "Lord of Ice, because of the existence of the White Dragon King, most foreign forces are reluctant to start with him.

The Lord of the Tower is the evil god who is most likely to attract all kinds of attention.

With him around, many things are much easier to handle.”

Lori blinked.

He was not surprised that the Lord of the Tower could be so arrogant as he is now because it was the result of the gods' indulgence. Even his appearance might have been planned in advance.

He wondered why the Lord of Storms had mentioned this to him.

“The Lord of the Tower, what really worries those guys from the outside world is his magic tower priesthood.

After the priesthood is condensed, it can really directly control the magic tower of a wizard who is much stronger than him." The Lord of Storms continued, "Even if they have the ability to turn him into their own appearance, they will never touch this priesthood.

This thing will be transmitted directly to their original bodies, and no matter how evil the gods are, they are unwilling to... offend the wizards of the entire universe.

Therefore, once there is a problem with the tower, the first thing to do is to deprive this priesthood.

As for being neutral or kind…Lori, in this world of ours, where is the chance for someone to get involved without intending to do something bad?

Both business and power are tightly controlled.”

Lori suddenly thought of His Majesty Travis' overly casual attitude after discovering the Night Spy.

The royal family and the nobility did make concessions to the Church of the Gods in certain respects.

This can be considered a tacit understanding between the two parties!

It's just inevitable that someone will take advantage of you.

Lori blinked in confusion and asked curiously, "Then, my initial behavior of directly excluding the major churches was not... good."

The Lord of Storms answered simply, “It’s normal for you to do that.

The country of ice, no one cared about it at first.

But after they ruined themselves, it became a mess that was left alone.

The North will naturally be affected to some extent.

Therefore, even though I have always been in the North, I have not allowed the church to develop in the North. In fact, I have deliberately reduced the control of the Storm Church.

I still understand my own believers.

Even those who have no problems have great ambitions.

This is the background color of the storm, and it is very aggressive.

If they were not allowed to develop in the North, they would cause so many troubles!
But Lori, you should also know that the Storm Church is indeed responsible for what happened to your family, but that is not their purpose. "

"Yeah, I know." Lowry said calmly, "So I only hate the Schroeder family."

The Lord of Storms laughed and said, "Use everything you can to avoid being used as a target when you are weak, and don't want others to attack you directly just because your demiplane is discovered... In this regard, you have done very well.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with my followers because of this kind of thing.”

Lori smiled slightly... He was indeed a Storm believer. After all, he had been formally baptized by the church and had never publicly denied his beliefs.

He could now understand what the Storm Lord said.

For the Lord of the Storm, who regards his believers more as employees, or employees who share some of the responsibilities he carries, he does not care about Lowry's disgust towards senior employees.

As long as Lowry is still working for him and indeed provides him with sufficient rewards, the Lord of Storms will only value him.

As for whether you are loyal to the company or not, a serious boss doesn’t really care, as long as you can do the job.

Rather than senior employees who bring him trouble, the Lord of Storms would rather see rebellious subordinates like Lowry who may change jobs at any time due to insufficient pay but can bring him huge profits.

This is a large company that is still striving to make progress. What the boss wants is the results of hard work, rather than having the time to pay attention to whether his employees punch in at work every day and work overtime after get off work.

Even though the boss has a tough nature, the company is too powerful, with termites and pests popping up everywhere, and he doesn't have enough time to clean up the internal and external troubles!
It is not time to explore whether the relationship between employees is harmonious.

As long as it doesn't affect his work, he doesn't care even if he gets beaten to a pulp.

Perhaps in the eyes of the Lord of Storms, it would be problematic if Lowry, who was known for his bad temper and stubborn personality, did not do this... Unless Lowry knew the inside story a long time ago, he would definitely be very thoughtful when doing things.

I have to be careful not to let the gods discover my peculiarity.

In fact, Lowry's demiplane could not be hidden from the eyes of the gods. If the eight-year-old boy acted too cautiously, or even restrained his hatred, he would really be blacklisted.

After all, his parents are the type who know nothing, and they lack respect and trust in the church under the will of the Lord of Storms. After figuring this out, Lori took a deep breath and couldn't help asking, "Since you know I'm fine, why does the Dark Night Goddess always bother me?"

"She likes you very much." The Lord of Storms answered inexplicably.

"What?"

"Dark Night loves you, so she tortures you like that. To her, it's a test before she has to give more love." The Storm Lord's tone was also... strange. "Look, didn't she say that you and the trusted aide of the Tower Lord are somewhat similar in some ways?

The Lord of the Tower was not very tolerant of your differences. He did not force Pat and Yanis to contact your mother because they did not want to.

This is very thoughtful of him.”

Not to mention the Tower Lord for now, Lori suddenly understood why the several beings that the Goddess of Darkness valued all stabbed her in the back!
Who wouldn’t go crazy?

Just these few encounters made Lori obsessed with them, always thinking about tricking the Dark Night Goddess and her church... If she really fell in love with him to the point of being unable to extricate himself, how much suffering would he have to endure!

"That staff member of the Tower..." Lowry couldn't help but mutter to himself, "It's understandable that he chose to die for the Tower."

The Lord of Storms coughed violently a few times: "Lori, don't tell the truth too much."

"Then now..." Lowry looked at him hopefully.

"Well, you are no longer her type." The Lord of Storms answered affirmatively, "You have been too smooth these years. You are not as sharp-edged as before and dare not kick anyone. You insist on being yourself and will never compromise with anyone.

Although you still do not allow believers of God to enter your castle, you have not refused the church's affiliated Chamber of Commerce to go to your valley to trade.

Your precious magical artifacts were also sold out without hesitation.

Although you said that as long as they abide by the rules of your territory, anyone can buy it.

But in this world, the people who are the richest and most willing to spend money are still those in the Temple!"

Lowry actually knew this. The chances of his top-notch items being bought by nobles were very low.

After all, by this time, most of the mineral reserves in the hands of the nobles were few and far between, and they relied more on managing their territories and various businesses to make a living.

The Northern nobles seemed to be richer because they had new mines, but they also had other concerns... After the White Dragon King abdicated, it was still unknown whether Leon could maintain his current momentum and keep those high-energy minerals outside the country in the hands of the Northern royal family and nobles.

No one would do such a thing as attacking the Northland, after all, Travis just abdicated, not died.

But the struggle outside the territory doesn’t matter... If Travis even cares about this, then why would he abdicate?

The former kings in the fantasy world are completely different from the emperors he knew before. They have to write a document of abdication witnessed by gods, and they will never look back unless the country is in danger.

Even if Leon went to Travis for help, Travis would not tell him everything.

Otherwise, the journey back to the palace, which should only take two months, would not have been made into 108 difficulties.

Now Leon is still stuck in the last thousand kilometers before entering the capital!

Without a big turtle to cross the river, he wouldn't be able to find the way.

In this case, if Lowry wants to get some super materials he has never seen before, he can only rely on these churches.

They span countless countries and have all kinds of minerals in their hands.

The grudges between him and several churches have nothing to do with these materials, and he doesn't need to admit his mistakes, so Lori will definitely choose to turn a blind eye!
Even the Church of the Earth dared to offer some special fruits for trading during this period, and Lori did not refuse.

As long as they don't use the name of the church, it's a small matter.

The benefits are real only when they are in your hands.

Besides, the crazy purchase of magical artifacts by several churches was obviously for the upcoming war.

His little bit of resentment is nothing compared to a matter concerning the life and death of the entire world!

It's his problem that he continues to insist.

Lori couldn't help but feel a little confused: "How old am I?"

Even though his dragon blood allows him to keep a young mentality, he can't stay in his middle school years forever, right?

It is enough to make up for the shortcomings in life once, there is no need to spend a lifetime to make up for it.

"You can see it from the Dark Moons." The Storm Lord said slowly, "They have been like that all their lives. She loves people who are persistent like that.

This is also the reason why I liked rain before.

He is obviously a ruthless character who can send down a torrential rain and flood a country, but he always appears to be gentle and in need of help.

Dark Night really saved her life."

Although everyone has their own calculations in the end, the help has never been false.

Lori understood what the Storm Lord meant by these words... The Goddess of Darkness is still deeply shocked.

It's not that she didn't know that Yu Shui had other thoughts, but she really didn't know that this thought was to kill her as well.

Lori laughed sarcastically.

He would not sympathize with the goddess of darkness.

To put it more clearly, when that person was helping Yu Shui to calculate other existences, he didn't think it was wrong.

It is only natural that you should bear the consequences of what you have raised.

Then…Lori looked at the Lord of Storms with a strange look in his eyes, and smiled thoughtfully: “Storm and wind?”

The Lord of Storms paused, and instantly transformed from a small whirlwind into a gust of breeze and disappeared from Lori's sight.

Sure enough, there are some law-related things in the Rain Goddess's pursuit of the Storm Lord.

Just like Talos, the Storm Lord in disguise in Toril, as the lord of the orcs, the type of women he likes is definitely not the type of Auril. It is enough to have a wife who is always thinking about killing him, so there is no need for him to have a lover who wants to kill him even more.

But the Storm Lord has very few options.

If I had to choose between Amberlee and Auril...I would definitely choose neither or Auril.

But the result is that if Amberley wants to take back her own divine authority, she can do it as long as she dares to resist her... Of course, she is a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong, so she simply doesn't have the courage to do so.

She even hoped to become Talos's lover so that her life would be more comfortable!
On the contrary, after being deceived again, it was useless for Euler to regret. He could only seal himself in the Arctic Circle and wait for the opportunity.

Although the essence of these two goddesses is ice and snow, and sea water, respectively, they can both be associated with storms.

Their initial attraction to Talos stems from their inherent desire for the power of storms.

If it were this world, where rain has a simpler meaning, there would be no need to mention it.

If the Lord of Storms didn't want to, Yushui would even move his home next to his kingdom.

Of course, Lori was not concerned about the actions of the Rain Goddess who could not resist the urging of her heart. He wanted to know whether the Lord of Storms himself was also affected by certain laws.

Judging from the way he fled today, there should be one.

The reason why the gods can say a lot of things when facing Lowry is because they know that Lowry is knowledgeable enough.

Even if there are things you don’t know, you will probably understand everything after going home and swimming in the sea of inherited memories for a few days.

Therefore, they usually tell the truth, and avoid it when they don't want to say it.

Lowry slowly glanced towards the north: The reason why he asked this question so straightforwardly was naturally not because he was just chatting about gossip.

In this world where even the gods have limited vision, Lowry has seen too many hidden things through the eyes of birds.

Even in this situation now, the 'Ice Queen' is giving a lot of slack to the people of the Church of Storms, not caring about the indifference towards her homeland that Rosalind had created over the years, and only wants to maintain the image of the Ice Kingdom.

After all this, who can't see that she has problems?
