Sir, this is not how bad women are used.

Chu Yan often woke up from a nap and walked to the former slum to take a look. He would wonder if he had gone to the wrong place. The situation changed every day.

Even the extremely rare "mobile NPC" traveling merchants have appeared once in the past few days, which really brought honor to the humble place.

but,

Although so many aspects are developing prosperously, the biggest hidden danger has never been resolved.

——Repair of the suppression array.

Led by Chu Yan, the team of scholars has entered the lord's castle and explored it three times in succession, but unfortunately found nothing.

The original words of the white elf scholar, Anjia, were:

"There is indeed some kind of magic circle in the castle. The forbidden power is like a fish on the shore here, but we can't find any trace of the magic circle."

Chu Yan really wanted to confront her. He had seen the fish that had come ashore. That siren was so fierce, singing and creating tornadoes.

Today, Chu Yan obtained concessions from several familiar taboo sisters and brought the scholars into their rooms to check if there were any signs of formations.

Some magic circles do not require drawing a circle on the ground, but only require placing specific tokens in specific locations.

For example, the so-called indoor feng shui.

Putting a cat at the door can attract wealth, and putting a cow at the bedside can attract a succubus.

"Well, after visiting these two rooms, do you have any clues? You can't go to any more rooms.

82

I am quite shy. ”

Chu Yan didn't want to put pressure on them and didn't show his hope.

The elf scholar wearing white silk garters shook his head slightly with regret and apology:

"No, there is nothing special in the room. Even the floor tiles are made of ordinary materials, which makes it difficult to form a hidden magic circle."

Chu Yan took them out of the castle for the time being and said:

"So where do you think the castle's ability to suppress the forbidden comes from? Do you have any guesses?"

Several scholars looked at each other, wanting to see from their companions whether there was anything they had overlooked or missed.

One of them had a different idea and said:

"My Lord, what I said is just a rather obscure guess. There are some special objects that carry a certain power, and this power can sometimes affect the environment.

Therefore, the castle's current condition is not necessarily a magic circle."

"You mean something like a holy vessel or a sacred object?"

"Yes."

There are some powerful weapons that, just by placing them somewhere, can bring about the effect of being bathed in holy light and blessed.

But the castle is penniless, and most of the things left over from the past have been resold.

An Jia added: "But there are many unknowns in the magic field. Maybe it is really like what is mentioned in the legend, the angels and gods saw the harshness of this place, sighed, and left behind a miracle."

"Then you really have to accept your fate. Okay, thank you for your hard work these days. You can visit Paradise City freely, except for the castle. If you want to go back, you can go back."

......

"Really? There's been no progress on the most important thing!"

After saying goodbye to the scholars, Chu Yan went back into the castle, went directly to the second floor, entered the nuns' room, and helped them exercise.

If you tie them up all the time, even the most flexible bodies will become stiff, so you have to change the way you tie them up regularly.

Today they are beaten with **, tomorrow they are hung up and tied up, and the day after tomorrow they are tied up and made to ride on wooden horses.

In the room, the nuns with their mouths blocked made pitiful "woohoo" sounds from time to time.

Unfortunately, no one will come to rescue them.

The next batch of church carriages for the replacement shift will not arrive for at least another month.

"So, how did the church absorb the power of the magic circle here?"

Chu Yan muttered in distress.

It can be guessed that even the church cannot copy, let alone "move away" the magic circle here.

Otherwise, there would not be such a troublesome method of sending people to steal the "miracle power" on a regular basis.

Just when Chu Yan finished changing his bonds and was about to leave, he heard Aunt Nancy's voice from behind him. She used her flash magic and appeared directly in the room.

"I was wondering why you were so secretive about the situation on the second floor. It turns out that you made the nun look like this."

Nancy looked at the disheveled and dripping black-robed nun, who was looking at her with tears in her eyes, as if she had suffered great injustice and humiliation.

However, Nancy did not help the nun to free herself. She just looked at her younger generation, the boy with a delicate face like a tall girl.

"Actually, I'm a good person..."

Chu Yan raised his hands in surrender, indicating that he had confessed his crime, but his expression showed no remorse.

In fact, after learning from the scholars that there was no way to repair the suppression array, he was ready to explain the matter to his aunt.

He explained the whole story, and then said:

"Aunt, if this happened again, I would still do the same thing. The theft by these nuns made the situation worse at one point.

…So what now?”

"What do you want to talk about? Repairing the magic circle here, or how to explain to the church in more than a month?"

"Both, but I see that you are not suspicious of the church's 'stealing' here, do you know why?"

"Hey......"

This sigh confirmed Chu Yan's guess that Aunt Nancy did know something.

The woman with long crimson hair closed the door, leaving the poor, helpless and tearful nun in the room.

She brought Chu Yan to the lord's floor, brewed a cup of tea on the terrace, and then told him the secret.

"The church is stealing 'miracle power' from here for two reasons.

The first reason is that some powerful people within the church have also lost control. They have never touched the forbidden power, but have always been at the forefront of the fight against the black magicians. "

“Are there clergymen within the church whose power is out of control?”

Although this matter was a bit ironic, Chu Yan did not mean to be sarcastic.

It is true that there are many taboo people in this lord's castle who have a good side, but more groups of black magicians are indeed evil.

Use that powerful magical force to attack and loot towns, break the peace, plunder resources, and disturb the tranquility.

The Church is indeed doing good things in this regard. Even if it acts with a kind of ridiculous arrogance, it is impeccable in combating evil magicians.

"Yes, the reason is unknown. This situation has been around for a long time, and it has increased in recent years. The church 'stole' power from here in order to stabilize those out-of-control clergy."

"What about the Dead Sea border?" Chu Yan wanted to curse.

顾及

83

When we get to the church, the taboo holders at the border of the Dead Sea won’t have to maintain their power anymore, right?

The carriages carrying people came every few months, and it turned out that they were here to unload goods.

They increased the difficulty of resisting the Dead Sea monsters out of thin air, but did not send anyone to help reinforce or offer any help.

If you send an additional team to support the work of clearing monsters, Chu Yan will feel that the church still has a sense of shame.

Nancy poured him a cup of tea and calmly told him the truth:

“The church cannot take care of so many things, because this level of the world is almost coming to an end. In the next five to ten years, all races will have to move to the upper level of the world.

Rather than leaving the 'power of miracles' on this level, it is better to use it to maintain the stability of the clergy.

Like Weilin's voyage, she was essentially worrying about relocation."

Author's words: There is only one update today. The subsequent plot is more important, so I will try to make it as compact as possible. I will sort it out.

The picture is AI picture, I hope it will not be harmonized

Chapter 49 Do You Know What Half a Month Means?

Chu Yan knew about this world a long time ago, but he never thought about it too deeply.

Just as he had known in his previous life that the planet he lived on was round, but he had only been to a few states and counties in his own country, let alone the outside world.

This world in this world is described in history books as a vertical world in the shape of a tower or a tree.

Just like a tall tower, each floor is a world with abundant resources and new races.

But after hundreds of years, each layer of the world will decline, the magical energy will be exhausted, and the world will wither.

If this only meant that the supernatural powers disappeared, then it would still be fine. Everyone has no magic power and no sword skills, so they can still live a normal life.

But......

The monsters are not affected!

The monsters remain as powerful as ever, but the power of all races has weakened, which is tantamount to the end of the world.

Therefore, every several hundred years, all races have to move upward, settle in a new level of the world, and then wait for the next "several hundred years".

This is information known to all living beings in this world. Even if they do not have access to books, they will learn about it through word of mouth.

However, moving upwards is not easy.

Not to mention that there may be xenophobic indigenous people in the higher world, that is a story for later. Before going to the new world, you must first defeat the "gatekeeper boss".

"I don't understand why it is said that Weilin's voyage is also related to the new world. The tower is there."

Chu Yan looked far inland. Beyond the thousands of mountains and the heavy clouds, he could vaguely see a dark "stick" - that was the Tower of Babel.

The entrance to the new world is at the end of the Tower of Babel, and the most powerful "gatekeeper" in this world is waiting for the challenger in front of the gate at the end.

Aunt Nancy pushed aside her hair from her bangs and looked over there as well. Her tone was filled with exhaustion and helplessness as she said:

"According to the records after the church was founded, the first layer of the 'gatekeeper' was just a slime, a low-level monster that strong ordinary people could kill by working together.

Chu Yan, do you know what this means?"

"do not know."

"...Don't be so talkative at a time like this."

“Okay, I know.

What my aunt meant was that the 'gatekeeper' was becoming increasingly powerful, and was already running out of strength at this stage. It was even possible that by the time of the next relocation, there would be no hope of a breakthrough at all.

So, Weilin is the one who looks overseas to find new possibilities? "

"Yes, Weilin is one of the most famous and powerful dragonborn. Even she is shaken about 'going up', so you can imagine the challenge of this level.

Under such circumstances, the church can no longer afford the loss of clergy, especially those with good combat capabilities."

"Because time is running out and we can't wait for the rise of the new star clergy?"

"Chu Yan's brain can still figure things out."

"I'm just too lazy to think about it, not that I can't think of it."

Chu Yan felt that he was looked down upon, but on second thought, it was not a bad thing.

He is also happy to have no time to worry about, as he does not have to endure the unreasonable expectations of others, because his recognition of you will often become a reason to waste your labor, and he thinks that if you are capable, you should do more work for free.

However, Chu Yan was not distracted by such long-term topics.
