- Chapter 580 - Turte Oasis and Church of the God of War
After crossing the vast desert, we finally saw a vast and vibrant oasis, which was like a bright pearl embedded in the long embrace of yellow sand.
Rows of towering poplar trees stand proudly on the edge of the oasis. They are like loyal guards, using their thick branches and leaves to densely cover the raging wind and sand, building an indestructible green barrier for this pure land.
Within the oasis, the scene is full of flowers and full of vitality. Countless carefully dug ditches criss-cross the land like silver ribbons. They happily flow with crystal-clear water, nourishing the lush farmland on both sides.
Businessmen from all over the desert came to this hot land in an endless stream.
They rode camels or drove horses, loaded with all kinds of goods, from distant lands.
This oasis became an excellent place for them to exchange goods and exchange culture. There is a dazzling array of products, ranging from precious spices, exquisite handicrafts to daily grain and cloth, making this oasis one of the most prosperous and lively areas in the western desert of Fanor.
This is Tourte Oasis!
It is the core of the southern part of the western desert of Fanor continent.
Although the Felik Oasis and the Tourt Oasis are both large oases, the Felik Oasis was an oasis created by the legendary druid, and its area cannot be compared with the Tourt Oasis.
Although the Tourt Oasis is located in the desert, the Tamu River, which is formed by melting snow from the distant mountains, flows here. Therefore, the environment here is no different from the fertile plains in the eastern part of the mainland, which is almost equivalent to the size of two Luo European peninsulas. area.
Because of the vast area of Turt Oasis, several cities were built in this oasis.
The most famous one is the Holy City of the Church of God of War [Amandu City].
The city that appeared before Bryce’s caravan was the city of Respe located in the north of the Tourt Oasis.
Caravans from other areas of the desert basically use this place as their destination.
They will sell the goods they carry here, and at the same time purchase the special products of Tourt Oasis.
Because not far south of Tourt Oasis is the most famous Weihai Bay fishing port in the Western Desert. Merchant ships departing from here can go to other areas of Fanor continent and other continents.
Compared with crossing the Garonne Mountains, it is easier for people in the Western Desert to communicate with other regional trades by sea.
Standing on the road leading to the city of Respe, the bustling flow of people made this place look like an extremely prosperous trading city, rather than a city in the desert.
Bryce arranged for the caravan to rush towards the city of Respe. The hard journey in the past month had made everyone in the caravan exhausted, and they looked at the city of Respe with a little excitement and joy.
Duke, who was following the caravan, also changed his appearance. He was tanned a lot and looked much calmer.
Li Si and Taiya have not changed much. During this period, the two of them were together every day and enjoyed a rare vacation.
Bryce looked at Lis and said:
“Your Excellency Li Si, Respe City has arrived.”
“Are you with us?”
Bryce just came over for a routine inquiry. The destination of their caravan was here.
Li Si also said before that he would leave the caravan when he arrived at the Turt Oasis.
“No, I’ll just leave.”
Li Si waved his hand, jumped off the camel first, and then caught Taiya who jumped off.
“This is our thanks.”
Bryce handed Lis a small box containing gold coins and gems.
He had previously promised to give half of the caravan’s goods to Li Si as a thank you, but he could not let Li Si wait for them to slowly sell the goods.
Bryce simply collected all the remaining gold coins and gems in the caravan, and their values were about the same.
Although he understood that these belongings might be nothing to Lis, Bryce did not intend to fool them.
Keep it as a favor, in case something else troubles Li Si in the future?
Seeing this, Li Si put it into the storage ring without paying attention. He nodded to Bryce and then said to Duke:
“Keep working hard. Your talent is quite good. If you have a chance in the future, you can go to the Fes Kingdom in the east of the mainland to find me.”
“Yes, teacher.”
A smile appeared on Duke’s face, he nodded repeatedly and said.
It turns out that Teacher Li Si is from the eastern part of the mainland?
No wonder he is so powerful, but he has never heard of the teacher’s name before.
After explaining, Li Si took Taya towards Respe City.
The history of Tourte Oasis and the city of Respe is quite long.
The sun penetrates the sparse clouds and shines on this ancient and mysterious city, coating every stone road and every mottled city wall with a layer of golden brilliance. Time has left a deep imprint here. But it also gives it endless stories and charm.
The outline of the city is particularly distinct against the desert. The ancient city walls are made of huge stone blocks and are still standing despite being eroded by wind and sand. They have witnessed the rise and fall of the city of Respe for thousands of years.
At the city gate, stone pillars carved with complex patterns tell of the glory of the past, as if they are a portal to another time and space, leading travelers to explore the depths of the city’s history.
When Li Si and Taya walked into the city, the first thing they saw was the bustling and lively market. This is the heart of the city of Respe and a melting pot of various cultures and commodities in the desert.
In the market, all kinds of stalls are densely packed, from fresh fruits and vegetables, hand-woven carpets, to exquisite pottery, sparkling jewelry, the goods are dazzling and dazzling.
The voices of vendors shouting one after another, mixed with the bargaining and laughter of customers, constitute a vivid symphony of life.
Particularly eye-catching are those unique goods from distant continents, including rare furs from the northern ice field, which are emitting a faint blue light and feel as warm as jade; there are exotic spices from the southern elf forest, which exude an attractive aroma, making people feel as if they are in a foreign country in an instant.
These goods not only show the important position of Respe City as a trade hub, but also make it a holy place in the hearts of explorers and traveling merchants.
In the corners of the market, you can occasionally see a few old men in traditional costumes, sitting or standing, playing ancient musical instruments in their hands, and the melodious melody drifting in the wind, adding a bit of tranquility and peace to this busy city.
Li Si and Taiya strolled around casually and headed towards their destination.
In his previous life, Li Si had wandered in the western desert for a long time, so he was not surprised by such scenes.
Taiya was similar. He might have been a little excited at first, but later he became familiar with it and was not so curious.
After casually buying some skewers of sand lizard meat and camel meat and feeding each other, Li Si and Taiya walked towards the Church of the God of War.
Although the holy city of the Church of the God of War, Amandu City, is in the Turth Oasis, it does not mean that other cities in the Turth Oasis have nothing to do with the Church of the God of War.
These cities are all under the control of the Church of the God of War, and each city has a church of the Church of the God of War. Similarly, the Turth Oasis is also under the protection of the Church of the God of War, and anyone who wants to create chaos here will be hit by the Church of the God of War.
Not long after, a magnificent and tall church appeared in front of Li Si and Taiya.
Located in the heart of Respe, the Church of the God of War is like a towering monument, standing proudly in the bustle and bustle of the city, but it is a solemn and quiet world of its own.
The overall architecture of the church is built with cold and hard stone. The towering spire seems to pierce the sky. Its lines are sharp and resolute, without a trace of redundancy, revealing an indescribable solemnity and iron-blooded atmosphere, as if every brick and tile carries the will and glory of the God of War.
The exterior wall of the church has been carved with mottled traces by the years, but these traces have not diminished its majesty, but have added a sense of historical heaviness.
The huge oak door is inlaid with complex metal decorations, and the armor-like pattern shines in the sun, as if guarding the last line of defense leading to the sacred temple.
In addition to ordinary believers with simple clothes and pious faces, the people who come in and out of this church are more extraordinary professionals with extraordinary momentum and sharp eyes, exuding a bit of fierce and bloodthirsty aura.
This is also the habit of the believers of the God of War. Before going out for adventure, they will come to the church of the God of War and pray to the God of War, hoping that everything will go well in the upcoming battle.
They will not pray to avoid fighting, which violates the doctrine of the God of War Church.
Li Si ate the camel meat in two or three bites. The hump meat is actually very greasy, but it has a unique flavor under a lot of spices and fierce fire.
When he walked into the church with Taiya, no one stopped Li Si from entering, and no one came forward to ask Li Si to donate money.
The moment he stepped into the church of the God of War Church, it seemed as if he had crossed the boundaries of time and space and came to a sacred place that was both solemn and slightly murderous.
The air was faintly filled with the unique iron smell of the battlefield. This smell seemed to carry the bravery and sacrifice of countless soldiers, making people involuntarily immersed in the tragic and uplifting atmosphere.
The interior of the church was tall and spacious, and the dome soared into the clouds, as if to send the believers’ prayers directly to the ears of the god of war.
The sun shone through the stained glass windows, which painted a magnificent picture of the god of war conquering all directions. The colorful light intertwined on the ground into a symphony of light and shadow, adding a bit of mystery and fantasy to the entire church.
The most eye-catching thing is the huge statue of the god of war.
The statue stands in the center of the church, as if it is the patron saint of the entire church.
The god of war holds a long sword with a cold glow, and the shield is firmly protected in front of his chest. The posture is like he has just walked out of a cruel battlefield.
It is full of courage to fight, but also firm to protect. The sun shines through the stained glass window and shines on the statue of the God of War, coating the cold and hard stone with a layer of golden brilliance, making the statue look more magnificent and noble, as if the God of War himself has come to the world, overlooking his believers and this land.
Around the statue are placed various sacrifices and offerings, including flowers, candles, and weapons and armor left by the warriors, which quietly tell of their admiration and gratitude for the God of War.
Li Si and Taiya walked into the church and stayed for a moment.
After feeling it, Li Si shook his head slightly, feeling a little regretful.
No, it still failed to resonate with the power of faith.
The absorption of the power of faith in the Dawn Cathedral gave Li Si a pretty good ability.
The power of faith in the Church of the God of War in Respe City is not as strong as that in the Dawn Cathedral, and Li Si has no way to absorb it.
But Li Si is not regretful, after all, there is still the city of Amandu waiting for him!
It is the holy city of the Church of the God of War, there must be no problem.
Thinking of this, Li Si took Taiya to the altar in front of the statue of the God of War.
Several priests of the Church of the God of War were there, accepting the prayers of the believers.
As the two approached, the priest also noticed Li Si and Taiya.
There was no way, compared with the believers around them, the two were too unique in appearance and the aura they exuded.
Where did the strong man come from?
Seeing that the two did not have a pious look in their expressions, but just maintained due respect, the priest knew that the two had come to the church for other things.
The leading priest did not dare to underestimate them and took the initiative to step forward.
“Welcome to the Church of the God of War, what’s the matter?”
“I want to see the bishop, I have something important to tell you, I wonder if you can help me tell him.”
Li Si controlled his magic so that his voice could only be heard by the priest in front of him.
“Okay.”
The priest looked at Li Si deeply, nodded in response, and turned to walk to the back of the church.
Li Si did not care about the curious eyes of the people around him, but looked at the Church of the God of War.
Each church of the gods believes in different gods, and the doctrines and styles are completely different.
If the church style of the Dawn Church is bright, gentle and pure, then the Church of the God of War is more inclined to the iron-blooded style of fighting and fighting, and does not shy away from the arrival of death.
In the eyes of the believers of the God of War, the battlefield may be their best destination.
Without letting Li Si wait too long, the pastor returned and led Li Si and Taya to the lounge behind the church.
As soon as Li Si entered the door, he saw an extremely strong old man in a black robe sitting on the chair facing the door.
The thin clothes could not hide the bulging strong body at all. The bishop of the Church of the God of War looked more like a powerful warrior than a priest.
“My lords, what do you want to see me for?”
Bishop Lionel Martin was shocked when he saw Li Si and Taya for the first time.
Very strong, stronger than him!
And two of them appeared at once!
The special perception given by the God of War made Lionel understand the strength of Li Si and Taiya. Although this did not scare him, it also made the attitude of the bishop more serious.
“Nothing, just bring someone here.”
Li Si looked at the old man in front of him and threw Faith, who was still in a coma, on the empty space in front of him.
Lionel was stunned, and stood up instantly, with a look of surprise on his face.
“Is this Faith Martin?”
