Final Lord

Chapter 108 Mission and Test
"Ah!" Weiyi opened her mouth in surprise. "How come I've never heard of such a powerful deity?"

"Because our Buck Principality belongs to the Dawn Empire." Wang Buyi shook his head and said, "The Dawn God and the Rising Sun God of the Dawn Empire both have the power to protect the growth of crops. The God of Fertility is stealing their jobs here.

The gods do not care where their faith is sown, but the church that depends on the gods does care.

Within the Dawn Empire, the God of Fertility is a strictly prohibited pagan religion.

It's not that we don't have shepherds here, but they usually disguise themselves as bards, tavern owners, undertakers, and the like, drawing revelry from village celebrations and sipping sorrow at funerals.

And try to pass on the collected joys, sorrows, anger and happiness to your fellow believers."

Wang Bufu looked at the nightmare cage and said, "The biggest function of the nightmare cage is to collect fear.

For believers of the God of Filth, fear is a garbage emotion that can be recycled, but for believers of the God of Fertility, it is also a good thing that can be used to make food.

By processing the emotion of fear, they gain experience points that help them grow.

It’s just that this method of collecting emotions has gone astray.”

"Then can emotions that have strayed from the right path still be used?"

"Of course. The power bestowed by the gods doesn't care where these emotions come from. The gods are so busy, how can they have time to discern what their followers are doing?"

Wang Bufu sighed and said, "It's like draining the pond to catch all the fish. Villagers who have been in a nightmare state for a long time will suffer a mental breakdown in the nightmare.

But before they have a nervous breakdown, they'll churn out tons of quality horror.

This is equivalent to squeezing out all the emotions a person can produce in a lifetime in a short period of time. In the long run, most of the losses will definitely be incurred, but the short-term gains are quite high.

Hank used this method to forcibly collect the fear emotion, which shows that he was very anxious.

Yudo told me before that Hank found the biological nest of the [Lame Sheep] and was recruiting the extraordinary soldiers [Lame Sheep] in large quantities.

"[Lame Sheep] is a centaur. Coincidentally, all centaurs believe in the Mother of Fertility. Doesn't that make sense?"

Wei Yi immediately understood: "Brother, what you mean is that Hank is using the emotions of our people as bargaining chips to trade with the goat people?"

"Smart, he understood it immediately." Wang Bufu said, "My father took me to meet Viscount Hank before, and he respected Viscount Hank very much.

He told me that Viscount Hank had helped him a lot.

I guess Viscount Hank suggested to my father that he help collect fear for him like this.

But the old man was kindhearted and loved his people like his own children, so he would never do such a wicked thing. He definitely refused.

That's why Viscount Hank tried to cut off Gru Territory's medicine caravan, causing the old man to die of illness and supporting Lincoln's ascension to the throne."

Wei Yi was very angry: "This is too abominable! He has so many people in his own territory, but he doesn't use them and comes here to harm our people!"

Wang was dissatisfied and said leisurely, "Who said he didn't use it? Maybe he did, but it wasn't enough?
It is not so easy to recruit the extraordinary legion, and the price is very high.

If my guess is correct, Hank will definitely not watch his territory being taken back by us.

He had put so much effort into bringing Lincoln to power, and hadn't seen enough benefits yet. He wouldn't be willing to suffer losses like this.

The core of collecting emotions is people, not territory.

Even if we take the people away, Viscount Hank might not give up and continue to harass us."

"Then do we still need to relocate the people?"

"Of course, even more so. The Sunset Mountains are inconvenient to travel to, but they have several semi-chaotic lands as barriers, and with General Ed in charge, they are definitely easier to defend than Gru Territory."

At this moment, Blind Cat rushed back with a group of maids and servants. "My Lord, I have brought the person here."

“Thank you for your hard work.” Wang Bufu patted Weiyi’s head and said, “Let’s go, we still have a lot of things to do.

"Those are just my speculations, lacking any crucial evidence. If we want to fully understand what Hank is doing, we need to send someone to the Shackles to investigate."

"Ah?! Brother, if we go to the Shackles School, won't we be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth?" Wei Yi was a little surprised.

"Of course not us." Wang Bufu said with a smile: "Such a dangerous mission, if completed, would be a great achievement. Someone would be happy to go."

……

In the lord's mansion, Ruth knelt in front of Wang Bufu and listened quietly to the information Wang Bufu gave him.

"This is the situation. Sooner or later, we will confront Viscount Hank. War can be delayed, but it is inevitable.

Therefore, I need someone to spy in Viscount Hank's Shackles for a long time to collect information for me.

This is undoubtedly a very dangerous mission. Those who go to Shackle Territory will complete this arduous task without any support.

I'm not going to lie to you, the mortality rate is probably very high.

If you, the Crowmen, are willing to undertake this task and complete it with excellence, I can free you from your status as a slave and vassal race.

Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you, and I won't hold a prejudice against you."

Before Wang Bufei could finish his words, Lute nodded vigorously and said, "Lord, we are willing."

"Oh? Don't think about it anymore?"

"Don't even think about it!" Root said firmly, "None of us Crowmen are afraid of death, and certainly not of danger.

We are just afraid that we won’t have the opportunity to show our abilities.”

"That's fine." Wang Bufu nodded and said, "Then you select seven Crowmen and have them come to see me."

"Yes! Thank you, Lord."

Seeing Ruth clenching his fists and leaving the room excitedly, Wang Bufu smiled at Wei Yi and said:

“Look, he has us to thank.

I wouldn't be willing to let anyone, including the cavemen, harpies, and cat sand beasts, take on such a dangerous mission.

But I am willing to let them go.”

Wei Yi shuddered. "Brother, this is why you took them in. I thought you would treat them as well as you treated the cavemen."

"Treat them all equally? Why?" Wang Bufu looked at Wei Yi doubtfully. "They have made so many mistakes, why should I treat them all equally?
I'm being kind by giving them a chance to prove themselves again.

Many sins cannot be forgiven simply by words; they require bloodshed and sacrifice, and can only be washed away with blood."

"What if they turn around and join Hank? Lincoln betrayed us once."

"That's why I only chose seven Crowmen to go." Wang Bufu laughed and said, "The future of the tribe rests on their shoulders. They don't dare to gamble."

Even if they dare to rebel, it doesn't matter. Don't forget, they haven't even climbed Chicken Leg Peak and can only build their nests among the cliffs of Chicken Leg Peak."
