Chapter 25 Pastor Rasha
What Rasha said seemed to be a question, but his tone was extremely certain.
How could a horse-raising village like theirs not be able to tell whether a horse is good or bad?
Xu Lai replied unavoidably: "It's an ordinary horse."
Laqi patted Xu Lai on the shoulder and said: "How is that possible? You are a human race A hero.
Let's do this Brother Xu, brother, I have made the decision. Regardless of whether you accept this commission or not, I will give you one of our prairie horses. "
Xu Lai bit his lip, and finally pointed at Su Ya beside him, and said: "Two horses, brother Lachi.
Giving us two extra prairie horses, I accepted this request. "
For the sake of two prairie horses, Xu Lai also lowered his face and shouted, "Brother, brother, brother."
Laqi glanced at the two of them. Prairie horses are cheaper in the grassland. Put it in a real Middle-earth city, it can be increased by about seven or eight times at least
However, even on the grassland, the price of a pure grassland horse is between 50 gold and 100 gold. The specific amount depends on the quality of the specific horse.
For two horses, their village would have to invest at least a hundred gold coins.
After thinking about it, Lacy finally sighed and said: "Okay, just call Brother Xu my brother. As a brother, I can't be stingy.
It is still more dangerous to track the orcs. , let's do this, you guys should wait here first, I will get the rewards from the previous mission for you, and pick two good horses for you to take with you.
In case of danger, it's good. With a horse by your side, your chances of escaping are always higher.”
Lachi was quite happy. Seeing that Xu Lai agreed to the request, he simply withdrew part of the task reward to Xu Lai in advance.
Of course, he also has selfish motives. At least he hopes that Xu Lai can have more opportunities to bring him actual evidence of the existence of orcs.
There are no mobile phones and cameras in this world. Although there are magic spells, the problem is that no one in their village, including Xu Lai, can use them several times.
So, if you want to find actual evidence, the best way is to cut off an orc's head directly.
This is the most direct and powerful proof. Even if Lacy and others climbed over the mountains and went to the orc territory to cut off the heads, the temple would have to send people over to verify them. It would not be as useless as it is now. information.
Lacy didn't let Xu Lai wait for too long, and quickly took the mission reward, a castle heart similar to Xu Lai's before, and the 200 gold coins he had used as pledge.
Outside the house, two prairie horses that are more than 20 centimeters taller than ordinary horses are quietly waiting for their new owners.
"Brother Xu, I saw that your riding skills are not very good, so I picked two docile mares for you. It's not because I don't want to give you good horses."
Xu Lai Smiling slightly, he complained in his heart that Lacy was even worse at talking than him, but he said on his face: "It's okay, it's okay, Brother Lacy, you've been thoughtful."
Xu Lai's riding skills are indeed not worth mentioning. It's good, but even with level 1 riding skills, it's not very stable to ride.
The key point is that this prairie horse is not as relatable as the original ordinary horse. Xu Lai couldn't help it no matter how much he urged it to go, and insisted on pinching the horse's belly with his feet.
Furthermore, Xu Lai has never really run even with the ordinary horse from before.
No matter where he went, he almost always brought troops with him. He never even ordered the entire army to march, let alone show the full speed of the horse. But there is an advantage that he can realize now. These two mares are not tall horses, but they are taller and stronger than ordinary horses.
The speed of the prairie horse has been increased to 65, the load has been increased to 500, and the health value is 50 points more than the normal horse. It also has an additional 10 points of sprint attribute, which is better than the normal horse. Several levels higher.
In addition to allowing Xu Lai to wear heavier armor, taller prairie horses can also significantly improve his combat effectiveness.
Before, the archer beside him drew his dagger and could stab him at any time. After sitting on the prairie horse, the dagger could probably only stab his thigh or buttocks.
It was only after sitting on a taller horse that Xu Lai understood why ancient generals loved tall horses. In addition to being more powerful, they could really save their lives.
Therefore, even if he could not control this prairie horse and could not communicate with him, he did not intend to change his mount.
He can always be tamed by practicing slowly, and now he is sitting on a prairie horse. He can gain riding experience every time he successfully walks a certain distance. Don't be too fond of him.
Under the leadership of the village chief Lazi, Xu Lai visited the only priest in the village, Rasha.
This is an elderly man. Half of his beard is white. He is probably quite old.
But his mental state is very good, even more energetic than the young man Xu Lai, and much more polite than the village chief Lachi.
He just doesn't know how to talk well. Xu Lai originally wanted to ask him about the current situation of the human empire, as well as things like temples and beliefs.
Unexpectedly, this guy actually wanted to send him a message, boasting vigorously about the power of the God of War, and saying that His Majesty the God of War has been watching him.
Xu Lai felt a pang in his heart. He was originally a staunch atheist. When he came to this world and talked about atheism, he felt a little guilty.
How can I feel free to be bullied by this old man again? If there really is an omnipotent God of War watching him all the time, even if he doesn’t do anything to insult the God of War, his privacy will be breached. I feel quite useless.
Thinking about the fact that there would be someone watching over his head if he ever begged for his wife's affection in the future, Xu Lai wished he could knock him off with a mallet now, still believing in God.
Although the old pastor failed to make Xu Lai believe in religion, he still revealed some useful information.
There are many gods in the human empire, but the main god is actually a god of war. This is something Xu Lai did not expect before. He thought it would be something like a creation god.
After the internal division of the human empire, the wizards in the tower did not even want to maintain their superficial pan-faith, and completely turned into unbelievers.
In order to punish these mages, the gods will never be able to give birth to priests no matter how firm their faith is. Moreover, they will no longer have the protection of the Seraph, the highest combat power that can protect one camp.
However, this did not change the tower mages. They used their wisdom and the hearts of ancient titans to create giants with the blood of ancient titans.
Xu Lai is in the imperial camp, and it is difficult to recruit the giants and titans in the tower.
However, Pastor Rasha told Xu Lai that as long as he joined the temple and had a firm belief, the temple was willing to send higher-level priests to join his team and serve Xu Lai anytime and anywhere.
The ultimate combat power of the human camp, which once allowed the human camp to crush many other camps and dominate the most resource-rich Middle-earth continent, is known as the angel with the strongest combat power, which was transformed from the priests.
