Ayss Domination

The expression of the agricultural goddess was obviously a little unhappy.

She paid a lot for her beliefs. Sauron’s words clearly negated all of this. She might have turned her face when she was replaced by other violent gods, but after all, she is a different agricultural goddess, and she is just quietly at the moment. Watching Sauron, waiting for his next words.

The goddess of agriculture thought Sauron would talk about many things.

But Sauron didn't do that. He just smiled slightly and sat on the couch in front of the goddess of agriculture, and calmly said: "You should have been to other places, right?"

The goddess of agriculture frowned slightly.

Sauron looked at the beautiful surroundings and smiled and said, "It's really nice here. It's much more beautiful than my country."

"I have traveled to many places along the way. Some cities have been completely ruined. Countless people have been displaced. Many people are starving. After crossing the Agate River, there are bones everywhere. There are humans and other creatures."

"The peace and beauty here is only because the manor and nobles prevented the refugees from approaching."

"They were turned away and sealed off across the river."

Sauron sighed softly, and then said: "I don't deny your idea. It's just that everything you want to create can't be created based on the current material plane of civilization."

"If it's just a puppet, you should be able to realize your idea here."

"But this is only the Southern Principality, it's just a trivial place on the entire continent, and it's a very small piece of land on the material plane."

The area of ​​the Southern Principality is not as large as that of the South Coast.

This place is about one-thirtieth the area of ​​the continent, and in an even more inconspicuous place on the entire material plane, Arundel is more than three times larger than here.The influence of the goddess of agriculture has always been limited to this land, and the influence of the goddess of agriculture drops sharply as long as he leaves this land.

"What do you want to express?" The agricultural goddess said a little unpleasantly.

Sauron raised his head to meet her gaze, and said seriously: "You have the believer with the most material planes, and you have inherited the priesthood of Mother Earth. But have you ever wondered why you have been unable to advance to the powerful divine power until now?"

Yes.

The goddess of agriculture has always been of medium power.

Although she has the most believers on the material plane, her divine power still has not been able to improve.

If there are only a few hundred thousand followers of Sauron, then the followers of the Goddess of Agriculture are at least several million. Basically all races related to farming have her followers, but such a large number of believers still cannot make her promote to Strong supernatural power.The reason is naturally very simple, that is, although the followers of the goddess of agriculture are very large, the quality is completely inadequate.

Farmers believe in the goddess of agriculture the most. This is a very large base, but this base also means that their faith is not pious enough.

Every farmer prays to the goddess of agriculture before planting and harvesting, but that's only limited. There are too many pan-faith farmers, and ten pan-faith farmers can't be better than a more devout believer.The priesthood of the Goddess of Agriculture and the practice of the church prevented her from cultivating enough fanatics, so even with a huge base, the number of fanatics of the Goddess of Agriculture might not be as good as one-tenth of Sauron's.This is also the reason why the agricultural goddess has been unable to advance. Except for the territory of Harvest City, her church in the Southern Duchy cannot fully grasp it.

Hearing Sauron's words, the agricultural goddess couldn't help but fall into contemplation.

Sauron continued: "I have passed many places along the way. It can be seen that although there are your temples everywhere, these manor and nobles only know to ask you. They believe in you not because they really respect you. , But because you can bring them a good harvest."

"I heard that several oracles of the church recently were rejected by the nobles?"

The goddess of agriculture issued an oracle to accept the refugees from the outside world, but this oracle was not executed at all when it was violated.

The expression of the goddess of agriculture was a little unsustainable, and her voice said coldly: "What on earth did you come here for? Are you just to mock me?"

Sauron shook his head.

He stood up and walked in front of the goddess of agriculture, then stretched out his palm and whispered: "On the contrary, I came here to seek cooperation, but also to help you advance to a powerful divine power."

Help yourself?

The goddess of agriculture stared at Sauron suspiciously. Sauron's priesthood was far from her. She didn't know how Sauron could help herself.

"civilization."

Sauron seemed to see the doubts in her heart and slowly said: "Only a strong enough civilization can change everything. Without enough civilization as a foundation, ignorance and barbarism will never be able to realize your ideals."

"And I can help you do this."

The goddess of agriculture laughed, and said with a hint of mockery on her face: "Civilization? Is the civilization of the Arcane Empire?"

"No." Sauron shook his head and said: "More rational than the Arcane Empire. What I want to create is a more harmonious civilization, the peaceful coexistence of man and nature. Although I haven't done it yet, I have seen it. To what extent can I finally achieve this in the future."

The goddess of agriculture fell into contemplation.

After much time, she raised her head and said softly: "What do you want? What are you going to give?"

Sauron stared into each other's eyes and said solemnly: "I need you to form a true alliance agreement with me. And what I gave is an oath."

pledge?

The goddess of agriculture raised her head with interest and said, "What oath?"

Sauron smiled and said seriously: "In the name of the true god, vowed to protect the farming!"

be surprised.

The goddess of agriculture raised her head in surprise, and suddenly laughed playfully, "Are you planning to swear to fight for me?"

Sauron shook his head.

He earnestly said: "I pledge to protect farming. Maintain farming civilization. Any existence that destroys and threatens farming civilization will be my enemy. I will help you promote agriculture, protect agriculture, and develop agriculture."

"I will be your strongest ally, fighting for you when agriculture is threatened!"

The goddess of agriculture fell silent.

After coming over for a while, she looked at Sauron hesitantly and muttered, "Are you serious?"

It’s not that she doubted everything Sauron said, but that she has been a little bit unbelievable until now, because a lawful evil deity, the evil god who controls the power of death and killing, will actually agree with farming in her heart. Sauron could not deceive her with lies, but it was precisely because it was the truth that surprised her even more.

"Agriculture is the cornerstone of everything."

Sauron nodded slowly, stretched out his palm to the goddess of agriculture again, and calmly said, "I'm serious."

A hint of smile emerged.

The goddess of agriculture watched Sauron quietly, and then a smile appeared on her beautiful face. She gently held Sauron's palm and said slowly: "Okay. I promise you."

All the time.

There are no real fighting gods in the agricultural gods. Whether it is the spring water and peace goddess, the river goddess, or the new bud goddess, none of these gods belonging to the agricultural goddess can fight.The farming civilization itself is very fragile, and this happens to require a strong force to protect it. Wars will destroy farming, plunder will destroy farming, tyranny will destroy farming, and almost all kinds of disasters will cause serious damage to farming.This is also the reason why the goddess of agriculture can only live side by side. She does not want to but is unable to expand. Prosperous farming is almost driven by social order, and farming will inevitably weaken when turbulence comes.

Sauron's oath means that he will fight to protect farming civilization!

From now on, all races related to nomadic fishing and hunting will be hostile to him, and tyranny, chaos, turmoil, and war are also enemies he needs to fight, because these will also destroy farming.

Sauron's pledge almost meant that he would face all the enemies of the goddess of agriculture.

The golden light emerged.

When Sauron reached a contract with the goddess of agriculture, the golden divine brilliance has spread. Almost all the gods learned that they signed the covenant oath. Although the two gods did not announce the content of the oath, this This kind of vows that all gods are sensitive to are at least at the Pantheon level, which means that they can only have this kind of vows made in the name of the true gods.

Simultaneously.

A brief vow also echoed in the ears of other gods.

——"In the real name of Sauron, vowed to protect the farming!"

A very simple sentence.

But the chain reaction that came was huge, almost in the blink of an eye, an emblem of wheat ears suddenly appeared in the temple of all beliefs and services to Sauron on the entire material plane.And in all the temples related to the goddess of agriculture, the emblem representing Sauron also appeared in them.

Offensive and defensive alliance!

This is the highest-level oath of the gods, which means that the two gods have become the firmest allies.

In half plane.

A divine radiance emerged, and then a woman with beautiful long hair like a waterfall appeared in front of her eyes. She first leaned slightly towards the goddess of agriculture, and then smiled at Sauron and said: "The shadows dominate you."

-[Spring Water and Goddess of Peace]-Edas!

A deity with weak power and a god of the goddess of agriculture, the most hostile deity is the god of hunting-Mara, perhaps because Mara died in the hands of Sauron, and her attitude towards Sauron was very friendly.

Immediately afterwards, the brilliance of the other two gods emerged.

After Sauron made an oath with the goddess of agriculture, her three gods arrived in the first place.

The silhouettes of the river goddess and the new bud goddess appeared in the half plane, they nodded slightly towards Sauron, and then turned their suspicious eyes to the agriculture goddess.

All this was completely unexpected!

No one thought that Sauron and the Goddess of Agriculture would suddenly conclude such a high-level offensive and defensive alliance contract!
