When William and Nox arrived at the meeting hall, they found Chang Wei beating him up …
No.
It should be the Darkness Emissary. He was brutally beating up the Temple emissary, and the emissary from the Mercenary Guild was trying to stop him …
"Stop fighting, stop fighting. Someone will die if you continue."
The mercenary emissary was a muscular man, a proper warrior. He tightly held onto the arm of the Temple of Light messenger. No matter how the Temple of Light messenger struggled, the mercenary emissary's steel-like arms held him in place, making it impossible for him to move.
What was more hateful was that the mercenary emissary was still shouting for them to stop fighting as if nothing had happened …
On the other hand, the emissary of the Darkness Shrine attacked from both sides.
Apart from not using any Dou Qi, the punches hit the flesh without the slightest bit of mercy. In just a short while, the emissary of the Temple of Light had a bloody nose and swollen face.
No one knew how long this cruel abuse would last.
When they saw William and the others enter, they finally stopped.
The muscular man from the Mercenary Guild suddenly loosened his grip. He ignored the unlucky fellow who fell to the ground with a thud. He walked to the side as if nothing had happened and admired the murals in the meeting room.
As for the Darkness Emissary, he sat calmly at the side. He squinted his eyes and drank his fruit wine. His excited face seemed to be reminiscing …
"Where's Lautner?" The corners of William's mouth twitched.
"Eh, what's wrong … My Lord, did you call me?" Lautner had just gone to the toilet. Who knew that so many things could happen?
"Should we find a Water Magician to help treat him?" Nox asked in an extremely soft voice.
In the end.
The observant Temple emissary stretched out his hand and shook it. He slowly stood up. "Pui!"
He spat on the floor with his blood-stained saliva. William raised his eyebrows …
However, the Temple emissary did not notice William's gaze. Instead, he stared fiercely at the two fellows and said bluntly, "There's no need for treatment. It's just a superficial wound. I can still fight for a day."
"You fought? Didn't you get beaten up all the time? "The corners of everyone's mouths twitched.
Lautner coughed softly. "Alright then. Since everyone is fine, I'll give you a grand introduction." He leaned forward slightly and said, "This is the Lord of the City of Dawn, William Blackleaf."
"Greetings, Lord!"
"Greetings, Lord!"
"Greetings, my lord!"
No matter how powerful the backing of the three envoys was, they still had to bow and show their respect when facing the dictator of a territory.
William was the King of this city!
Unless they had the ability to flatten an entire city, they shouldn't be too arrogant.
The forces behind them were very powerful, but they couldn't hold up against the fact that the emperor was far away.
Regarding this point, every single emissary had to remember it!
Moreover, they had also noticed that their chances of winning against Lautner were only 50-50, so how could they dare to be too presumptuous?
Coupled with William's surname, they couldn't help but be shocked and choose to treat it seriously.
"Greetings, envoys. Please take a seat." The conference hall of the City of Dawn was newly built. It was huge and bright.
He sat on the highest seat and smiled at the three of them. "The City of Dawn belongs to the neutral camp. We don't lean towards the light or the dark side. My territory has always been neutral. Unless someone invades or threatens the territory itself, I will only choose war. Everyone can understand this. "
"Of course. I'm Akama, the southeastern region envoy of the Palace of Darkness. This is the first time I've come to the City of Dawn. I'm very impressed by the diversity of races in the city. I also yearn for such a life. May I know what Lord William thinks of the Palace of Darkness?" Akama was a middle-level dark warrior.
William smiled but didn't speak.
"Lord William, do you intend to build three temples at the same time? Anyway, I personally believe that the Mercenary Guild will definitely be of great help to your territory."
"It's the same for the Temple of Light. Lord William, you should understand that among the many intelligent races, there are more people who lean towards the light than those who lean towards the dark side." The Temple envoy, who could fight for a day, also didn't want to fall behind.
When the three of them had just received the invitation, they didn't have any impulsive or favorable impression of this former border town, which was now the City of Dawn.
But after some investigation, they discovered that this rapidly developing city had great potential. It should be able to develop many believers and earn a lot of benefits.
The Temple of Light and the Temple of Darkness each believed in a God.
The God of Light and the God of Darkness.
The purpose of their existence was to help the Gods collect the faith of the intelligent races.
The Mercenary Guild was much simpler. Its purpose was to recruit mercenaries. If someone posted a mission in the Mercenary Guild, they could collect a certain fee and post the mission to the Mercenary Guild. Mercenary groups and mercenaries could accept the mission and earn a portion of the reward.
In short, the Mercenary Guild was more like an organization of middlemen. But since they could stand firm in the legendary continent, their strength was naturally not a problem. This was because true warriors generally believed in the God of War.
But mercenaries wouldn't be loyal to the Mercenary Guild, because mercenaries often formed their own mercenary groups.
Which of the three was stronger?
"In this poor and remote place, how can we tell who is strong and who is weak …
Nowadays, the Gods can't perform miracles, and their faith doesn't receive any feedback. Even the titles of many Gods are made up …
Many believers just want peace of mind. The Temple of Light and the Temple of Darkness seem to be high-end occupations, but they might not necessarily be loyal to the Gods they believe in! "
William pondered for a while. "But it is precisely because of this that I allowed you to stay in the City of Dawn. If not, wouldn't you take all the benefits?"
So he clearly stated, "Regardless of whether it is the Temple of Light, the Palace of Darkness or the Mercenary Guild, I will choose to establish them. Whether you want to recruit believers or mercenaries, I will not care.
But please remember, I will not be lacking any of the benefits that I deserve.
If you choose to be stingy, then I will do the same! "
"My Lord, please rest assured. I understand." The Temple of Light messenger smiled, and the other two messengers also nodded.
One had to know!
The legendary continent was very big, and communication was very inconvenient. It was even more difficult to provide support.
Just like the Temple of Light, other than their headquarters believers who would be loyal to the temple for life, the other temples built in empires, kingdoms, big and small dukedoms, as well as their believers and professionals, were mostly not pure fanatics. Their lives were very free.
They could choose to inherit the position of a priest or a paladin. After receiving some training, they could choose to stay in the temple or leave the temple to enjoy life and fight on the battlefield.
As long as they did not violate too many rules and were not specially reported, they would not be removed from the temple.
It was even more so for the Palace of Darkness.
"It can't be helped, it's all for the sake of performance …" The messengers of the Temple of Light and the Palace of Darkness complained in their hearts. They really did not have any faith in their own Gods. It was just that their profession was stronger and they could earn more money.
Even the messengers of the Temple of Light and the Palace of Darkness knew each other. The two of them could often meet and even drink together …
The reason why they had fought just now was to show William. It was to let this young Lord think that they were not on good terms. Because superiors always liked the opposition between their subordinates …
But the Temple of Light messenger had never expected that his old gay friend would have a new gay friend, and that he would even want to kill him.
"My heart … hurts." The Temple of Light messenger's face was filled with disappointment and unwillingness.
William smiled amiably. "Since you have no problems, you can choose to start tomorrow."
When the three messengers were beaming with joy, William said again, "I forgot to say, let your people bring enough money. You can use my commoners. The daily salary is five copper coins, and the construction speed is very fast."
"…" The three of them were speechless.
William raised his eyebrows. "I remember that you don't have to spend your own money to build the temple. It's all from the headquarters, right? Are you trying to bully me because I just came out of the Dark Night City?"
The three messengers looked at each other and hurriedly shook their heads again to say that they did not dare to …
But actually, they really wanted to make a fortune and run away. Anyway, they were region messengers and not city messengers. They did not need to face William every day in the future …
And for many cities, no matter which force entered, it would bring many benefits.
So many Lords or nobles would personally pay for the construction of temples and other buildings.
How could they have thought that William would be so stingy?
"But you're still too young." The three of them had the same thought. An Elf from the Dark Night City with the surname 'Blackleaf', if he was not a royal family, then what was he?
