Chapter 37 37. Game Mode Changes: This War of Mine - Children and the Elderly
The capital of the Principality of Aundair: Fairhaven, a city with a population of one million.
The regular population is more than 1.5 million, and the limit can accommodate a population of 3 million.
Although the Principality of Aundair is only a [Principality], it will never be too different from other [Kingdoms] and [Empires] in terms of strength. With the construction of a large number of spellcasters, Fairhaven's towering mage tower, and the road The magically constructed vehicle with the noble crest almost made Mo Cheng think that he had returned to the 21st century.
This city may not look like anything special from the outside, but the internal spatial structure of the city has been transformed. The specific numerical parameters are the secrets of the Principality of Aundair, and even the players of [Foreign Land] have not completely found out.
"Is this the capital? It's so big!"
Pulling Lilia, who was exclamating, to walk on the street, Mo Cheng looked around with some confusion, trying to distinguish the road: "Strange, I remember that this is the way to go."
Mo Cheng was looking for the road to the Licker Order located between the fourth and fifth rings, but it was obvious that his previous mission line had little to do with the Principality of Aundair, and he wanted to find a family in a super city in a strange country. Church, is it that easy?
"Brother, what are you looking for?"
"Find a Licker Order. If we find one, our next accommodation will be secured."
Seeing that Mo Cheng kept looking around, Lilia also stopped to help observe, but it was obvious that the two of them, who were extremely unfamiliar with this city, could not even find the street sign.
After searching for a long time, Mo Cheng finally admitted that he had no talent as a scout. Apart from seeing the prosperity here, he didn't find anything.
"Forget it, let's solve the lunch problem first."
As a native of a province known as one where everything can be eaten, Mo Cheng has a keen interest in Fairhaven's specialty foods.
While trying to find a restaurant that could satisfy his expectations for new food, Mo Cheng suddenly bumped into something, and the soft feeling made him collapse at the touch.
"ah!"
Papers were flying in the sky in front of him. Mo Cheng immediately realized that he had bumped into someone. He stretched out his left hand to pull the woman who was about to fall to the ground, and drew countless shadows with his right hand to gather the scattered papers again.
"I'm sorry, I didn't look at the road just now."
After first apologizing to the person he bumped into, Mo Cheng realized that he bumped into a blond nun.
Her long, silky hair hangs down from her shawl, her face is plain and she wears a pair of glasses, and she wears the light blue nun's uniform of the Glorious Church.
Only then did Lilia react, "It's true, brother, you were too careless. I'm really sorry, brother, he didn't mean any harm."
"No need to apologize. I didn't pay attention to the situation on the road just now."
The nun smiled slightly, obviously having no intention of pursuing Mo Cheng.
After returning the stack of paper in his hand to the nun, Mo Cheng asked: "Sister, I would like to ask how to get to the Licker Order? It's my first time coming to Fairhaven and I don't know the way."
"Lickers...Order?" The nun looked at Mo Cheng doubtfully. Only then did she realize that the man who bumped into her seemed to be wearing a priest's uniform.
"Excuse me, are you..."
Mo Cheng quickly took out the [ID card] he got in Hesen Town, "I am Priest Mo Cheng..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the excited voice of the nun, "So he was sent by the religious order to replace Priest Albert? That's great!"
"Ah, before I introduce myself, I'm Loni Zoe, a nun of the Order of the Lickers in Fairhaven."
The Principality of Aundair is not only a royal country, but also has close ties with the mages, so the Church of Glory does not have much say here. This is also why Mo Cheng chose to develop in Fairhaven.
The [ID card] he picked up is an identity that can be used for a long time in Fairhaven, a place that is not very sensitive in the Radiant Church's intelligence network.
Loni followed the two people talking and led Mo Cheng the way.
"Priest Albert has passed away for a long time, and we have been sending letters to the church hoping to send another priest, but there has been no response. Some time ago, we finally received a reply saying that a priest was heading to Fairhaven. , come to take office.”
It is natural that there is no response. The power of the church is not strong in Fairhaven. If it is said that the cathedral of the Glorious Church in Fairhaven is short of people, forget it. The Glorious Church has no face in the capital of a country. It is impossible to let it go missing.
But those who are assigned to the Licker Order, which is located in a remote place between the Fourth and Fifth Rings, will probably think that this is a disguised form of exile.
As for the priest who was heading to Fairhaven, it was most likely the body found in Hesen Town.
And according to what Mo Cheng knows, the Licker Order has a relatively embarrassing position in the Glory Church.
"Without Father Albert, some donations have dropped a lot. Others are not much, mainly because it is getting harder and harder to make clothes for the children, and some elderly people also need herbal medicine to make medicines for their diseases."
Loni believed that Mo Cheng was the person sent by the Church of Radiance to take over Priest Albert, so she did not hide the difficulties in the Licker Order at all. Instead, he talked about the difficulties encountered and the things that were difficult to solve one by one.
After listening, Mo Cheng also had a general impression of the Licker Order in Fairhaven.
A combination of an orphanage and a nursing home that is about to close down.
When we arrived at our destination, the scenery before us was completely different from when we first entered the city, with low-slung houses, clogged sewers, sewage flowing across the city, and a rotten smell.
And people whose clothes are in tatters, with daggers and daggers exposed from time to time, and whose eyes are fierce.
The screams of cats and dogs were shrill and ferocious, and they did not look like human friends at all.
Following Loni for a while, after pushing open the rusty door, the [Albert House] sign on the door kept shaking, making people worried that it would fall down.
"I'm back!"
Loni's voice prompted many replies, "Sister Loni is back!"
"Sister Loni, I cleaned the yard today!"
"Sister, sister, I've tidied the room!"
"Jie Ke and I carried Grandpa Bude out to bask in the sun."
…
It can be seen that Loni has a high prestige in [Albert House] and is very popular with the children. In other words, Loni is the backbone of this place.
Under Loni's introduction, Mo Cheng stayed as the new priest. After clearing out two empty rooms, Mo Cheng and Lilia had dinner with Loni and the entire [Albert House] members.
At night, Mo Cheng was lying on an uncomfortable bed with his legs crossed, thinking.
There are many things to think about, but the main thing should be thinking about how to make money.
Lilia's tuition costs a lot of money.
The children and the elderly in the Albert House also need money to improve their lives. Thinking of the eyes of the children looking at the food during dinner, and the scarce soup that was almost water. As well as the uncomfortable bed under him, Mo Cheng silently included the construction of the Albert House into his plan.
No matter how expensive it is, the money needed to improve life cannot be more expensive than Lilia's tuition.
And there is...
Thinking about how to get in touch with the headmaster of Winterhold College, so as to understand the possibility of time travel and find a way home.
