Stratholme God

Chapter 3 It's the Archbishop who takes the money

Stratholme Cathedral of the Light!
In the game, this place has been completely desecrated by the Scourge Legion. Not only has the top of the church installed a huge gear parallel to the ground and transformed it into the Temple of Death, but even this place has been renamed [Slaughter Square].

At this point in time, this is still the most eye-catching place in the city.

The church resembles the unique spires of Gothic architecture, like soldiers holding spears to the sky.The gate that is a full floor above the square is matched with a trapezoidal staircase with eighteen steps, which makes the whole church look solemn.

Someone who was a little weak even walking the stairs, with the help of Rivendell, stepped on the blue and gold-trimmed carpet on the stairs and walked all the way into the church.Bathed in sunlight pouring in from the light blue carved glass windows, McDonald's earnestly said the donation.

Not only was he stunned by the godfather and archbishop who baptized the original owner when he was born, but he also alarmed Lord System.

【warn!warn!The host is suspected of illegal donation, please provide a sufficient reason within 10 minutes, otherwise the host will be punished! 】

Alonzos also subconsciously refused: "Child of the Light, I know you are rich, but the church can't ask for your huge donation for no reason."

McDonald's cleared his throat and said just one sentence.

"Godfather! Times have changed!"

This sentence seemed to say 'I understand you', and it blocked the old bishop's words all of a sudden.

"Child, you..."

"Godfather, I know about the Church in Redridge."

"Ah! You know?" Upon hearing this, Alonso's face seemed to be ten years older, and the sadness on his face could no longer be concealed.

McDonald nodded heavily.

At this point in time, a strange rumor has shifted from the Storm Kingdom in the southern continent of the Eastern Kingdom Continent (the history of this life has shifted. Originally at this point in time, it should have been the Kingdom of Azeroth. But at this time it was already the Kingdom of Stormwind. ) came—a large number of green-skinned monsters with astonishing physiques invaded Stormwind Kingdom.

Stormwind Kingdom even sent a letter for help, but this news did not get the attention of the other six kingdoms of the seven human kingdoms. After all, human beings grabbed the dominance of the world from trolls. In the past 2800 years, human beings have never Successfully exterminate the trolls.

There are active trolls in the old forests in the mountains in every kingdom, and attacks on human towns happen every year.

The burly orcs described by the Stormwind Kingdom were regarded as trolls by the Six Kingdoms.After all, trolls are also more than two meters tall and have similar turquoise skin, but they look a little slender compared to orcs.

Many nobles even sneered, saying that the dignified Stormwind Kingdom could not even handle a mere troll.

Only Macdonald knew that Medivh, the guardian of Azeroth at this time, had been possessed and betrayed by the boss of the Burning Legion, Sargeras, the King of Demons.The giant portal [Dark Portal] connecting [Outland] and the planet of Azeroth has been opened, and the army of millions of orcs has crossed the void and came to this world, and is attacking the entire human world.

Located in the lakeside town of Redridge Mountain, the easternmost part of Stormwind Kingdom's territory, the Church of the Holy Light there is also not immune to disaster.

Facing the menacing orcs, the priest, who had almost no means of fighting, was slaughtered in one face.

The news made Fao feel extremely heartbroken.

The most worrying and most heart-wrenching is still behind.

McDonald's, the godson who was once very familiar with himself and who 'mourned his misfortune and angered him indisputably', clarified his greatest worry: "I'm afraid that North County Abbey will also be in trouble!"

Northshire Abbey is a gathering place for priests and monks of the Holy Light outside Stormwind City, where the entire Holy Light Church elite of Stormwind Kingdom is located.

Long ago in Dalaran, a Lordaeron missionary threw a copper coin into the fountain pool and made a wish: "I hope that one day I will spread the word of the Light among the common people and teach them The meaning of the three virtues."

This missionary is Alonsos Fao, now the Archbishop of Light.

He has always been in harmony with his words and deeds, trying to implement his ideas.

When he traveled to the mainland, he came to Stormwind City, spread the Holy Light doctrine, and brought out a large number of disciples and grandchildren.Northshire Abbey is one of his brains.

After hearing the bad news of the Redridge Mountain Church, he actually had a concept in his mind-can he create a new profession that combines the two professions of warrior and priest?
In fact, this is the later Paladin career.

At this moment, it's just a rough idea.Because a lot of things are needed to realize this concept, firstly, there is the imminent need for war, and then there is the support of the nobles.

The Church's mastery of the armed forces will arouse the fear of the rulers.

Alonzos is a pure person who is dedicated to good, which does not mean that he does not understand this truth.

Alonzos never imagined that someone would send a pillow when he was dozing off.He found himself unable to refuse McDonald's donation.

"Child, you..."

"The matter in Stormwind Kingdom is likely to be more serious than most people think. Even if it is not serious, rebuilding churches and retraining priests in Stormwind Kingdom after the war will require a lot of money."

Under normal circumstances, when building a church or something, it is to ask believers to collect donations.

After working as an archbishop for so long, Fao certainly knows that the money of 1 common believers is not as good as the donation of a big noble.What's more, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. McDonnell is both official and in charge.

Alonzos felt that the godson in front of him was a little strange.In his knowledge, this young duke has many common problems of the great nobles of Lordaeron - arrogance and extravagance.

He had given up teaching McDonald's.

Who would have thought that McDonald's would actually deliver it to your door?
"Kid, well, I admit that the church does need some money, but even if I'm thinking about developing a new profession that combines the power of the light of warriors and priests, it won't take that much..."

"Then 2!" McDonald's was firm and unequivocal.

These words choked the Archbishop on the spot!

What are you doing, this is a reverse price increase! ?

Without waiting for Fao to speak, McDonald said like a machine gun: "Godfather, no matter what you do, I will support you! Since there are elements of warriors, then armor needs money, right? Weapons need money? War horses need money? 2 Is it enough? Or, 10 gold coins!?"

In fact, this has long exceeded the upper limit of the amount McDonald's needs to spend, and McDonald's is sure of the integrity of the archbishop.The so-called 'prosperity in the sky' is just to spend a little more when 'making a bargain'.

Alonzos Fao was so frightened that the white beard almost stood upright, and he did not miss the internal injury to McDonald's arrogance.

But what McDonald just said was the truth.

The Holy Light Church is very poor. The church was built with donations from believers. All the money is either used to train pastors or to help the poor.How can there be excess funds to engage in Paladin's equipment.

What "silver scale breastplate 5 gold pieces" sounds like a stalk, but in Lordaeron, this is close to reality.

About 6 gold coins for a steel helmet, 12 gold coins for armor, 2 gold coins for leggings, 7 gold coins for a scabbard steel sword, 2 gold coins for a spear and shield, and 12 gold coins for a warhorse... A set is about 50 gold coins.

Note that a robust bull is less than 2 gold coins.This year, 95% of the homesteaders did not have their own cattle.

For civilians, the value of a set of fine armor is no different from a million-dollar house.
