I'm a druid in Type Moon

Lin En woke up from his sleep, shook his dazed head, and climbed down from the big bed.

The maid waiting outside the door heard the noise, pushed the door open and helped Lin En wash up. When Lin En finally woke up, Ivan also stood in front of Lin En.

"Take me to where those knights train."

Lynn said to Ivan.

So Ivan led Lynn to an open space not far away, where many knights were sparring with each other. Lynn walked to a secluded corner, took out the sword that Merlin had given him, and began to practice in a methodical manner.

Lin En learned the druid's swordsmanship. The druid is not a pure wizard, but more like a scholar. Although Lin En focused on the way of spells, he did not neglect the practice of swordsmanship. Even when it was not used, he could use it to strengthen his body.

As time went by, more and more knights came here to train. The knights not only practiced swordsmanship, but also horsemanship and target shooting. As the number of knights increased, the entire open space was filled with shouts.

Lin En also finished his sword practice at this time, took the towel from Ivan's hand and wiped it vigorously, then rode his horse to catch up with the knights. The team automatically separated, and Lin En squeezed his horse's belly to speed through the middle, guiding the knights to form a cone, with Lin En as the sharpest tip.

The guard opened the gate, and Lin En led the knights out of the manor and galloped towards the grass outside. After charging for hundreds of meters, Lin En began to slowly slow down the speed of the horse, and the speed of the entire knight group also slowed down. A knight behind Lin En accelerated at this time, and when he was about to catch up with Lin En, he pulled the reins, and the knight group split into two, heading left and right respectively.

Ivan stood in the distance and watched his master command the Knights to form various formations. He thought that if his master was not a great druid, he might be a general. Although these were basic formations, it was not easy to let a newly formed Knights learn these formations in a short period of time.

The training didn't last too long, after all, Lin En and the Knights didn't have breakfast. So after sweating a lot, Lin En led the Knights back to the manor.

Led by Ivan, they came to the big bathroom, which was already filled with hot water. Lin En was not embarrassed and washed himself before entering the pool. The knights did not hesitate either, and after washing themselves, they also soaked in the hot water.

This is a very common thing in Britain. The lord and his knights take a bath together. This is a manifestation of trust in each other. Usually only the lord's confidants can bathe with the lord.

However, Lin En still couldn't get used to taking a bath with someone else, so he just soaked for a few minutes and then went out.

Lynn came to the restaurant. Since this used to be the king's manor, the dining table was the same as the one in the palace, a large round table. Everyone at the table had an equal right to speak, and there was no distinction between high and low seats.

After breakfast, Lynn changed into druid clothes, took the oak staff, and rode to the palace. He met Merlin, who came out of some noble house and was still yawning. The two went to the Government Hall together.

The morning is office hours. Merlin will listen to the problems submitted by various officials and then quickly provide solutions. Lin En will sit aside and act as a mascot, occasionally giving some suggestions. After all, someone is too cautious and takes things seriously while acting.

After handling important government affairs, it was almost lunch time, so Lin En had a meal at the palace. This was the only time of the day when she could see Morgan. The rest of the time, Morgan stayed alone in the magic studio, studying her magic. After all, with Merlin's suppression, Camelot had completely recognized King Arthur's rule, leaving Morgan no chance.

After lunch, Lynn would take a nap in the woods in the back garden of the palace. Lynn planted an oak tree here. Although it was not tall, it was big enough for Lynn to lean on and rest for a while.

In the afternoon, Lin En no longer had to be a decoration in the government office unless there was something very urgent to deal with. Lin En had to do his job as a druid.

What is the job of a druid? A druid is a Celtic priest who is in charge of Celtic baptisms, weddings and funerals. Since there is only one druid, Lynn, the residents of Camelot want to invite Lynn to preside over various ceremonies, so the afternoon is the busiest time for Lynn.

It was dusk and most of the common people went home for dinner. Lin En also rode his horse and headed for the noble's house where he had an appointment today.

Dusk is of great significance to the Druids, and many activities within the druids are held at dusk. In order to highlight their status, the nobles chose to invite Lynn to baptize the entire family at dusk.

The nobles walked out of the manor to welcome Lynn's arrival. Under the guidance of the maid, Lynn took a bath, changed into the clothes of the archdruid, and baptized everyone in the family in the open space, including young children, young people who were just starting out, and even elderly people. Although the Druid Order disappeared for decades, the influence of Druids is still far-reaching.

After enjoying a sumptuous dinner at the noble's house, Lynn rode back to his manor and handed the horse to a special guard. Lynn followed Ivan to the study and listened to his report on the various things that happened in the manor that day. Ivan was an excellent butler and could solve most of the problems. Most of the problems that could not be solved were related to money, so Lynn gave most of the money to Ivan for management.

Even so, there are still some things that Ivan cannot decide, such as the fights among the knights, the various invitations from the nobles, and some civilians who come from far away to see the druids.

So Lin En stayed in the study for a few more hours. Only after arranging tomorrow's itinerary did Lin En go to the bathroom to take a bath under the guidance of the maid.

After enjoying a hot bath, Lynn returned to his bedroom and activated various arrangements, turning the bedroom into his own magic workshop. Only after making sure that no one had touched the bedroom's arrangements did Lynn begin his research.

Night is the time that Lin En sets aside for himself to study magic. Although Lin En has forced himself to memorize all the knowledge of the Druid sect, it is only knowledge. If he wants to transform knowledge into power, Lin En needs to practice day and night.

Learning is boring, even learning magic is the same. The only difference between Lin En and others is that he can clearly feel his own progress, because it is not only him who is learning, but the natural consciousness around him will also explain to him from time to time, just like having a tutor with him.

After finishing his studies, Lin En lay on the soft big bed and took out the cloth bag he found in the king's treasury. After Lin En's identification, this should be the seed bag mentioned in the records, which stored all the seeds a druid had seen in his life. However, due to lack of maintenance, the seed bag was no longer functioning properly and only one seed could be taken out every once in a while.

Now is the time to verify his bloodline. Lin En reached into the bag, grabbed an oval object, and then quickly took it out.

Under the moonlight outside the window, an oval yellow rhizome appeared in Lynn's hand. If Lynn remembered correctly, this should be the miracle crop of Type-Moon Britain: potatoes.

The End of the Age of Gods: Chapter 34: Can Only Be a Mascot

The next day, Lin En got up early and after washing up, he did not go for exercise, but went to the farm near the manor.

This manor was originally a vineyard, dedicated to providing daily wine for the royal family. After King Arthur rewarded this manor to Lynn, Lynn marked out a piece of vacant land near the vineyard as his own plantation.

Lin En planted many edible vegetables and wild fruits that he found during his travels. Because they had not been artificially domesticated, these plants were very different from those in later generations. Even Lin En could not recognize what these crops were. He could only judge that they should be harmless to the human body.

In order to see the effect in a short period of time, Lin En read the druid's books, used many precious materials, and set up a magic circle in the botanical garden. The effect can accelerate the growth of plants, but it is ineffective against spiritual materials.

So this place became Lin En's exclusive vegetable garden. Normally, servants would come to water and fertilize the garden. Lin En would check the situation in the garden from time to time, check the growth of the plants, and make sure that the methods he had developed were correct.

Today, when Lin En came to the vegetable garden, a servant was watering the plants. Lin En took a quick look and confirmed that the other party was cultivating the garden carefully according to his own method. He did not look at it again, but walked to the corner of the garden and used an oak stick to mark out a square grid to separate it from other plants. He then buried the potatoes he got yesterday in the soil and blessed this small piece of land to ensure that the potatoes would mature quickly.

Normally, it takes three months for potatoes to mature from the time they are planted. However, with the help of Lynn's magic, this season's potatoes will mature in about a month. The cost is that the land needs more water and fertilizer. So Lynn found the farm manager, told him that he needed to pay special attention to that piece of land this month, and then left the manor.

They rode to the palace. Since they arrived a little early today, Lynn waited at the palace gate for a while. Then, they saw a carriage without a noble emblem approaching. Merlin got off the carriage with a refreshed look on his face and nodded to Lynn, saying, "Good morning, Lynn."

"Good morning, Merlin!"

Lin En and Merlin walked towards the Government Affairs Hall together. Lin En tentatively said, "I found a vegetable I had never seen before yesterday. I just planted it today. When it is ripe, I will ask you to try it."

Merlin stopped yawning abruptly, blinking his purple eyes, and soon understood what Lin En meant.

"Okay, you must let me taste it when it's ripe. I may not be able to eat it after the Age of Gods ends."

Lin En thought about it and understood what Merlin meant: potatoes can indeed be grown now, but after King Arthur defeats King Benevolence and the Age of Gods ends, potatoes probably can no longer be grown. This is probably the restriction given by the restraining forces. Before the Age of Gods ends, there are no taboos, and after the Age of Gods, everything returns to the original track.

During the Age of Gods, the atmosphere was filled with True Aether, so the crop yields were extremely high, and even the appearance of potatoes would have little impact. After the Age of Gods, if potatoes could still be grown, then Britain's demise would be delayed, which was inconsistent with the destiny, so the suppression force would subtly erase the traces of potatoes in Britain, and no one would remember except the people involved.

Lin En was in mixed feelings. When he got the potatoes yesterday, he also thought about using the prestige of the Archdruid to force large-scale planting of potatoes to replace wheat. After it was effective, he would use artificial breeding to cultivate seeds with higher yields, and use this in exchange to buy the large amount of grain stored in the hands of the nobles.

With abundant food, King Arthur would not need to requisition food from civilians as military rations, nor would he make the "correct" decision to oppress a village to reorganize the army before the war. The fate of Britain might have been changed.

But the restraining force has long blocked this road. Even if Lin En can obtain a large amount of food by planting potatoes in the next few years, and can make Camelot live and work in peace before the expedition against the Bite King, once the Age of Gods ends, potatoes cannot be planted, and farmers are forced to plant wheat again, with a significant reduction in yield. Due to frequent changes in crops, the grain output may even be lower than the original time. The demise of Britain may be accelerated.

After figuring it out, Lin En and Merlin also arrived at the Government Affairs Hall. Lin En continued to act as the mascot, watching Merlin reviewing decrees and meeting ministers, and he seemed to be in a trance.

"Recently, many civilians have come to Camelot from other places, and there are not enough houses in the city..."

"Lord Kai sent an urgent letter saying that the military rations are still insufficient, and he hopes Lord Merlin can deliver some more..."

"Lord Gawain sent a letter saying that the king has a good appetite recently..."

After dealing with all the government affairs, Merlin stretched and patted Lin En's shoulder.

"Is it over? Can we go have lunch now?"

Lynn came back to his senses from the book in his mind, looked at Merlin walking out, stood up and followed him.

"I feel like it doesn't matter whether I'm here or not. Why not let me go around the city during this time? There are many people waiting for me to be baptized."

Lynn complained to Merlin that ever since he had explained in detail his governing philosophy under Merlin's guidance, Merlin had quickly put it into practice, and the occasions for Lynn to make suggestions became fewer and fewer. Even Lynn would not be so arrogant as to think that he, who was just a keyboard warrior in his previous life, could understand politics better than Merlin, King Arthur's teacher.

Not to mention the huge cultural differences between the East and the West. In this era, the British spirit of chivalry prevailed, and many knights would draw their swords when they saw government officials bullying civilians. Therefore, overly complicated decrees could not be implemented at all. Not to mention that the power of the nobles was much greater than that of ancient officials. The kingdom only had the right to make suggestions, and it was impossible to enforce its own policies.

Even Merlin had to consider the personalities of local nobles when formulating policies, not to mention Lynn, who didn't know many nobles. Therefore, Lynn was a mascot in the Government Affairs Hall, proving that the Druid Order supported Merlin's policies and preventing those with ulterior motives from sowing discord.

"But the Archdruid has the obligation to supervise the king and can even stop a war. If you don't stay in the palace, someone might kneel in front of you and beg you to stop the war. If this happens, what will you choose?"

Merlin said slowly.

If someone does not want to see this war happen, whether it is to protect civilians or suppress King Arthur's authority, asking Lynn is indeed the best way, because the Archdruid can indeed order the two countries to stop the war, and King Arthur, who is crowned by Lynn, must listen to his advice. Even if the war has already started, the two countries must stop fighting and sit down for negotiations.

The End of the Age of Gods: Chapter 34: Preparations before Departure

The peaceful days passed one by one, but the atmosphere on the front line became more and more tense, and both sides began to send small forces to test each other. The nobles and the king on the other side had reached an agreement to jointly fight against King Arthur's invasion.

Lin En put down the quill in his hand, looked at Merlin opposite him, and said, "All the knights have been sent out. The only ones left to defend Camelot are Morgan's followers and my knights. Although I think Morgan should not take action at this time, now is indeed a very good opportunity. As long as Morgan can control Camelot, King Arthur, who has not yet established a stable foundation, will become an isolated force, and the outcome of the war will be unpredictable."

"Don't worry!" Merlin's men kept writing. After finishing a note, he raised his head and said to Lin En: "Although Morgan wants to seize King Arthur's throne, she will definitely not do it during the war."

"The Morgan of today?" Lin En sighed. If it was the Morgan in the future who was called the Demon Concubine, she would not give up such a good opportunity even if it might lead to the failure of the war.

While the two were chatting, a knight broke open the door, rushed in front of them, and handed a letter to Merlin.

Merlin opened the letter, read its contents, and then smiled.

"The battle has been set. It will begin in the early morning of three days. The two armies will meet in the suburbs."

Lynn took the letter. It was a handwritten letter from King Arthur, which recorded in detail the entire negotiation process between the two parties. Since they could not reach an agreement, they finally decided to go to war three days later.

Lin En handed the letter back to Merlin and said, "Since the war is about to begin, it's time for me to set off."

Just after Lynn realized that the war might have been planned by Merlin, Merlin told Lynn his plan and asked him to be ready to set off at any time.

After defeating the enemy, King Arthur will try his best to capture the enemy's king and great nobles, and release the smaller nobles back to their country. Lyn will arrive after the war and ask King Arthur to give the prisoners proper treatment, and then preside over the negotiations as a third party.

Since the king and the great nobles had been captured, there were no nobles in the country who had the same status as King Arthur. The remaining minor nobles could only ask the Archdruid to act as their agent to negotiate the ransom.

During the negotiations, Merlin will contact various nobles, divide the relationships between them, win over those nobles who are close to Camelot, release these nobles first, allow them to return to their territories and start a war with the opposition.

Since the leader of the opposition has not been redeemed, the war will end in a very short time. Even if the surrounding countries get the intelligence and want to send troops to rescue, it will be too late.

Of course, King Arthur was not aware of this plan. Merlin would ask King Arthur to tour the country and appease the frightened civilians. This was the time for the small nobles to appear. They would be the first to submit to King Arthur, publicize King Arthur's power and kindness, and denounce the arrogance of the original nobles, so as to gain the support of the civilians.

The most important part of the whole plan was that King Arthur had to defeat his opponent quickly, and not through strategy, but by defeating the entire kingdom's forces face to face, demonstrating the power of Camelot and King Arthur's bravery, and thus conquering those defeated nobles. In this era when chivalry prevailed, such a victory was enough to spread King Arthur's reputation throughout Britain.

As for King Arthur's defeat, neither Lynn nor Merlin had ever thought about this issue.

Merlin searched the table, took out a piece of parchment with a seal on it and handed it to Lynn.

"The food has already been prepared. You can just take this document to get it. Before you set out, remember to bring enough cattle and sheep to distribute to the soldiers as rewards. And remind Kai and Gawain that we have decided not to allow the soldiers to plunder nearby villages, otherwise our efforts will be in vain."

"Stop the soldiers from looting? You've really given me a big problem!"

Lynn took the parchment, glanced at the number on it, and put it in his arms after making sure it was enough.

Britain practices a conscription system, and every noble has his own private army. In times of war, knights lead well-equipped private soldiers and recruit a large number of civilians as cannon fodder. This is the army of this era.

Knights basically had their own manors, and their private soldiers were supported by the lords, so they fought bravely and had high morale. The civilians who were summoned to fight were to plunder the enemy's towns and villages after the victory, not for a few silver coins given by the nobles before the war.

So that afternoon, Lynn did not preside over the baptism in Camelot, but returned to the manor to notify all the knights to set off the next day.

The knights cheered when they heard the news. What the knights wanted was to achieve great things. These knights voluntarily followed the Archdruid partly because of faith and partly to have a good resume so that they could join nobles of higher status in the future. No matter which one, they would not fear war and would even enjoy it.

While the knights were preparing their equipment, Lynn went to the warehouse, loaded all the food onto the carriages, and sent out some knights to lead the soldiers to escort the food ahead.

After watching the grain transport team leave, Lin En rode to the noble house where he had an appointment today. After presiding over the baptism, Lin En revealed at the banquet held by the nobles that he would soon lead his troops to the battlefield to mediate the war. The nobles who did not get the latest news did not know that the war was about to break out, and thought that the Archdruid was dissatisfied with the war. They denounced King Arthur's tyranny and praised the Archdruid's kindness.

Many nobles who stood on King Arthur's side retreated silently to the edge of the banquet, and the smarter ones had already sent people to inform Merlin.

Lynn saw all this. Since King Arthur was born as an illegitimate child and did not have enough reputation before becoming king, there were many nobles and knights in Camelot who did not obey King Arthur. However, since the great druid Lynn and the great sage Merlin publicly expressed their support for King Arthur's coronation and personally supported the coronation ceremony, and many knights were defeated by King Arthur in the tournament and followed King Arthur, these nobles hid their thoughts.

As King Arthur was leaving for war, Lynn, one of King Arthur's two major supporters, suddenly hinted that he was dissatisfied with King Arthur, and many nobles had other ideas. If Lynn led the Knights to the war, the only people left to defend Camelot would be the city guards and Morgan's followers. If they could capture Camelot during this period of time, or even go one step further and directly marry the eldest princess Morgan, then they would also be qualified to ascend the throne.

The only two people who can decide the throne are the great druid Lynn and the great sage Merlin, who check and balance each other, so his only opponent is the young King Arthur.

Thinking of this, many nobles smiled knowingly and began to toast Lin En frequently.

Lynn accepted everyone who came to him, and his tone was full of dissatisfaction with the war, but he did not mention King Arthur at all. However, the nobles around him understood what he meant and began to collude with each other in secret.

Finally, Lin En was too drunk to handle the alcohol, so he stayed in the nobleman's house for a night. The candle in the nobleman's study was lit all night long.

The End of the Age of Gods: Chapter 35: The Sword in the Stone, Broken

Early the next morning, Lynn said goodbye to the nobles with their attentive smiles on their faces and returned to his own manor.

The knights were already ready, led by the butler Ivan. Lynn's mission this time was not to charge into battle, but to travel among the nobles. Therefore, at Ivan's strong request, Lynn agreed to let Ivan accompany him as his messenger to contact all parties and become an extension of the Archdruid's will.

It took the Knights half a day to catch up with the grain transport team, and then they escorted them all the way, taking three days to reach the border.

When the Knights arrived at the border, the war was over and King Arthur was leading his knights in pursuit. Only a few knights were left behind to lead the soldiers to capture prisoners on the spot.

The leading knight looked at the large group of people coming from afar and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to assemble. The knights were in front, followed by the well-equipped soldiers, and at the end were the civilians who had just stood up and didn't even know where their weapons were.

Lin En reined in his horse 50 meters away and looked at the messy team not far away. Although he knew that this was the norm of this era and that it was normal to be exhausted after a victory, Lin En, whose vision far exceeded that of this era, still found it difficult to accept the scene before him.

King Arthur's army could look like this!

Lin En's face was solemn as he watched the leading knight rushing to him. When he saw Lin En's face, he quickly reined in his horse, jumped off the horse before he could stand firm, knelt on one knee in front of Lin En and said, "I'm very sorry, I didn't recognize you as the Archdruid in person!"

Lin En's eyes were filled with disappointment, but he didn't say anything more. Instead, he said, "It doesn't matter. I didn't raise the flag either."

Lynn glanced around and said to the knight, "I will take over here from now on. You take my soldiers and gather all the captives together. At the same time, call all the soldiers together. Remember, I said all the soldiers! I brought enough wine and meat. We will hold a celebration banquet tonight."

"Yes!"

The knight took the order and led the soldiers behind Lin En to guard the prisoners, and asked the other knights to go and gather the scattered soldiers.

Lynn led the knights to meet King Arthur. The road was filled with corpses and weapons of both sides. Scavenger birds flapped their wings before the horses' hooves landed, and groups of wild beasts stopped chewing and looked up at their figures.

The further they went, the more desolate the place became. Lynn left a knight behind every few steps and told them to drive away the wild beasts that were attracted by the blood, and that the bodies of the warriors should not become their food.

Crossing the vast plains and entering the lush forests, Lynn saw many knights of Camelot. They sat beside the corpses of their enemies, bidding farewell to those loyal knights.

Under their guidance, Lin En continued to move forward. He met Kay, Gawain, and even Bedivere.

"The king is pursuing alone, and I have been ordered to be here to stop those who stand in his way."

Bedivere saluted Lynn. His armor was already scarred and his body was exhausted. Beside him were two knights who had already died.
