Chapter 314 Build the Light Temple

The Transmission Formation of the City of Gloom had been equipped with the portal to the Holy City. Xiao Feng could reach the Bright Mountain through the City of Gloom directly but he didn’t hurry to find Goddess of Light. Instead, he played with Xiaobai for a while before he headed towards the main shrine.

Luckily, Goddess of Light didn’t run about and still stayed on her throne. After Xiao Feng arrived, she slightly opened her eyes and looked down upon him.

“Well. Your Honor, I know Ni Wu is wanted by the Light Temple, but now he has joined my affiliation. You cannot hunt him down anymore.”

Goddess of Light was always mysterious to Xiao Feng, so she couldn’t be regarded as an ordinary NPC. As a result, Xiao Feng always talked to her cautiously.

“The rules of Creators prevail. I have no right to intervene. The darkness is about to awaken. Only the power of the oracle can stop the darkness from invading the land of God. Your priority now is to arouse the power of the oracle. You mustn’t make any delay.”

Goddess of Light spoke in a cold voice but her words gave Xiao Feng a relief. It was good that she couldn’t disobey the systematic rules.

“No problem. I am doing my best to enhance Xiaobai’s ability. By the way, I want to build up a Light Temple in my main city. Is it okay? You’ve seen it, the one you saw just now.” Xiao Feng was about to leave and yet suddenly raised the question when he thought of it.

Although he didn’t join the construction of the City of Gloom, Xiao Feng still knew what kind of main buildings the city lacked. After all, there were some blank areas on the construction panel.

The Light Temple was one of the lacked buildings and its effect as the facility of the main city was rather amazing. It could reduce the penalty on the experience points when a player died!

Generally, after a player died and regened, he would receive a penalty of 20% off the experience points of the current level. If the currently owned experience points were less than 20%, the player would be downgraded directly.

And the Light Temple could reduce the penalty on the experience points.

Actually, the Light Temple always carried this function in the main cities. After players died and regened in the Light Temple, they would only be punished with 15% off the experience points of the current level while the penalty would remain 20% if they regened in the main city regen spot. There was a difference of 5%, which was rather lucrative for players. Everyone knew that it was so hard to gain levels.

But not all the players could regen in the Light Temple. Generally, only priests and paladins, the two professions that belonged to the Light Temple, were endowed to regen in the Light Temple after death, which was also an advantage of the two professions.

As to the other players, only those who were obsessed with main quests and gained the highest satisfaction points of the Light Temple could enjoy the privilege.

According to the construction panel of the City of Gloom, Xiao Feng learnt that with the Light Temple, all the players under the City of Gloom or its alliance would be able to enjoy the privilege of penalty reduction if they regened in the City of Gloom. Moreover, as the Light Temple was upgraded, the percentage of the reduced experience points would increase gradually, like 5%, 10% and even 15%.

This was an amazing function. Imaginably, it would become even more horrible in the late phases of the game. Some other important buildings would be the same, which had their own functions. Thus, this was also why all kinds of forces struggled to develop their own encampments.

Actually, the guild encampments could build up a Light Temple and after it was built, the guild experience point would be substantially increased. It was a pity that they all didn’t know how to build it. This was not only about satisfaction points and fame points.

Of course Xiao Feng was different, so he talked to Goddess of Light directly.

“As an Honorary Archbishop, you have the right to do so. In the Holy City, there are many bishops who are not assigned to a certain jurisdiction venue. You can pick a bishop who is willing to go to your main city and leave with him.” Goddess of Light thought for a while and then nodded her head, not showing any objection because the City of Gloom used to be a dark main city.

“It’s quite easy. I’ll take my leave first.”

Xiao Feng heard it and felt relieved. It was quite easy for him, so he said goodbye and left for the Holy City to find a bishop.

“Archbishop!”

However, when he left the temple, he saw Bishop Renault walking to him and greeting warmly. Xiao Feng was delighted then.

“Bishop Renault! Come over here!”

Xiao Feng immediately came forward and dragged Bishop Renault aside.

“What’s up? Archbishop?” Bishop Renault’s face became better recently. After all, he just got promoted. Now he was grabbed by Xiao Feng and said curiously.

“Bishop Renault, how about following me in future?” Xiao Feng said in an encouraging tone.

“Ah? I don’t understand what you mean?” Bishop Renault became more confused.

“Recently, I have gained a main city and become its castellan. Now I plan to build up a Light Temple in the main city and need a bishop. How about going with me?” Xiao Feng explained.

“Emm… Archbishop, according to the rules of the Light Temple, if you want to build up a Light Temple, you can only choose a bishop. Now that I am an archbishop, this is not aligned with the rules.” Bishop Renault said embarrassedly.

“So what? If it were not for me, could you become an archbishop? Here is a reminder for you. Being in the Holy City, you can only be an archbishop at most. Do you think you can become a pope? The best result for you is to be assigned to a main city for management. After all, you will leave here regardless. Why can’t you follow me? I don’t take your advantage.” Xiao Feng continued inciting him in a disgruntled voice.

“Well…” Bishop Renault was surprised by Xiao Feng. On second thought, what Xiao Feng said was right. The western continent was in the charge of a pope for no Goddess of Light. Yet, as the Holy City was guarded by Goddess of Light, he could be an archbishop at most.

“Okay! I’ll go with you!” Then Bishop Renault absorbed himself in mediation for a while. Then he made up his mind and said. Actually, he planned to leave the Holy City like Bishop Kaiser and Xiao Feng was good to him.

“Good for you. Get your things and let’s set off.” Xiao Feng said happily. His scheme was a success, but it was not a scheme either. The City of Gloom was much bigger than an ordinary main city. If the imperial city was regarded as a big main city and Tianlong City a small main city, the City of Gloom would be a middle-sized main city. It was much more advanced than an ordinary main city in terms of scale or condition.

The only one problem was that the City of Gloom used to be a main city of darkness and Bishop Renault joined the war there not long before. Xiao Feng wondered whether he would have any problem with that, like rejecting the dark air. Hence, Xiao Feng didn’t dare to say it out and planned to get him into the city first.

Since they reached a deal, Bishop Renault didn’t drag his heels and directly brought his men over.

Then Xiao Feng was startled. Unexpectedly, Bishop Renault had so many hatchet men after becoming an archbishop!

He had 30 ordinary clergymen, 15 ritualists, 5 pontifices, 2 guarding knights and a bishop in red as his second hand!

Exactly, a bishop in red at the same level as Bishop Kaiser! The highest-level bishop in the minor shrines of the Light Temple in the main cities! He was the second hand of Bishop Renault!

Xiao Feng almost couldn’t help cursing. How come Bishop Renault had so many resources only after a few days?

“Archbishop, let’s set off!”

As his men were all gathered, Bishop Renault counted the people and then said impolitely to Xiao Feng. He always fawned on Xiao Feng and now he would follow after Xiao Feng.

“Let’s go.”

Xiao Feng didn’t mention the destination beforehand. Instead, after they stepped into the Transmission Formation, he selected the portal.

Then as the white light flashed, a group of people disappeared in the Holy City and showed up in the slightly dim surroundings of the City of Gloom.

“Is… Is this the City of Gloom?”

Upon arriving, Bishop Renault was shocked. He participated in the battle here with the Light Coalition before and wouldn’t forget about this place so soon.

“There is remaining dark air in this place. Is this the main city we are encamping?” The bishop, second hand of Bishop Renault and a group of pontifices looked quite solemn. The two guarding knights were also on the alert for the surroundings.

“Don’t be so nervous. This is my main city, which belongs to the adventurers. It’s quite safe.” Xiao Feng hastened to ask them to relax, afraid that they would be scared off. Meanwhile, he kept texting Liu Qiangwei to ask her to clear up the mess.

It was good that Liu Qiangwei just arranged Ni Wu well and then returned the transmission square. Besides, Bishop Renault and his men appeared slightly uncomfortable, but they didn’t show any disfavor. As a result, there was no big problem.

“This is deputy castellan of the City of Gloom, Midsummer Rose. If you have any requests, you can tell her. All of your requests will be satisfied within the scope of ability.”

Xiao Feng also hastened to introduce each other. It was not a small trouble to handle dozens of people. Of course he wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible.

“Rose, this is Bishop Renault of the Light Temple, who will be building the Light Temple in the City of Gloom. Receive him at the highest level.”

“Bishop Renault, and all of you from the Light Temple, nice to meet you. Please come with me to pick a site. As to the construction of the temple, if you have any request or plan, you can raise it to me.” Liu Qiangwei heard that they were here to build up a Light Temple and felt delighted instantly. Without even being ordered by Xiao Feng, she came forward kindly.

“Show us around the highest building of the main city and near the regen points. The center of the main city too.”

Bishop Renault was quite straightforward to ask her to show them the several most important places. Yet, Liu Qiangwei didn’t have any problem and just brought them to pick a site.

“Brother Xiao, did you nail the Light Temple?” Qian Duoduo walked to him at the moment and said to Xiao Feng in surprise.

“Of course. There is nothing I can’t do.” Xiao Feng showed off himself, which was quite rare to see. “By the way, has Ni Wu settled down?”

“Yes. As per his request, Liu Qiangwei arranges a huge alchemy room for him. Di Wuya and Dilu are still in there.”

Saying that, Qian Duoduo gritted her teeth and gave a fierce look. “This time, I must make Di Wuya and Dilu stay in the City of Gloom! I have spent a lot of efforts! I’ve put the whole warehouse’s materials in front of them! I saw that they had fixed their eyes on the materials! Since they are here, I don’t believe they can leave!”

Xiao Feng was choked to being speechless. Looking at Qian Duoduo in front of him and Liu Qiangwei who was walking afar, he found that these two women were even more scheming than him and couldn’t help wondering whether it was right or wrong to handle over the construction of the City of Gloom to them.
