Chapter 429: recruit
During this visit to the Beauty and Art Church, Panda and the others have taken on a very formal identity. The dragon slayer Pande, the chief staff of the Tarakhan leader, Viscount Eric, and even the local tyrants have the status of "Champion of the Molai Arena".
The status of the Grand Arena champion is no trivial matter. It is not just about winning one game, but after winning thirty games in a row in the arena, you can finally get this title. Wang Tuhao and Raymond, Gondor, and Yuneruo formed a team of four, and they played on and off for nearly two years. They just won this honor not long ago.
High-level gladiators are not the kind of people who sell themselves and their lives. They are all first-class masters. The reason why they are willing to fight to death in front of everyone is for honor and money. Gladiators like this are generally It will only be held once a month. It didn't take much time for Wang Tuhao and the others to fight from ordinary gladiators to high-level gladiators, but it took a long time for less than ten games after the promotion to high-level gladiators.
Of course, among them, there was also Yuneruo who went to the Norma battlefield. The four-member team lacked an important forward role, and the reason why they had to die for a long time was...
Facing these three people, the Church of Beauty and Art did not dare to neglect them, and the Archbishop personally came forward to receive them, giving them enough face.
Although the chief archbishop of a church is theoretically comparable to that of a king, the church is also divided into three, six, and nine classes. The Beauty and Art Church has not had its first temple until now. Forget it, where do you have the nerve to show off?
To be honest, judging from the fact that their shrine still has the sign of the Academy of Arts hanging, maybe they haven't really left the stage of the grass stage team.
The Archbishop of the Church of Beauty and Art is named Angelique, who is also the dean of the Eternal Art Academy. The light of divine power flickered in her eyes, and her strength was obviously extraordinary, but she did not have the arrogance of ordinary powerhouses. Instead, she seemed approachable. It could be seen that after years of stumbling and crawling in society, her personality was quite smooth.
The four sat down in the study, and after the waiter served tea, she asked the other party's intentions side by side.
"We are not good at playing tricks like diplomatic rhetoric." Panda replied, "I came here mainly to invite your church to establish a branch in the Earl of Tarakhan."
Archbishop Angelique was stunned for a moment and looked at them in surprise, with three points of joy and seven points of doubt.
No church will oppose the establishment of branches. For the clergy, promoting the teachings and spreading the faith is always what they are most passionate about, and she is no exception.
It's just... secular rulers often don't welcome the clergy to establish churches, because the clergy are a group of idealists who never compromise on issues of right and wrong. A stable base can easily grow too big, especially those churches that are very popular among the grassroots. Once they develop, they will often force the regime by coercing public opinion. I don’t know how many conflicts, how many fights, and how many people died.
The nobles may not care about the life and death of commoners and clerics, but they absolutely cannot care about their own life or death. So over time, the default rule that churches are not welcome to settle in has been formed.
Although Earl Tarrahan is not the top noble in the Terrera Kingdom, he is already a very strong local powerhouse. Why did he invite such an inconspicuous small church as the Church of Beauty and Art to establish a branch?
Archbishop Angelique was puzzled, but didn't show it on her face. She smiled and said, "Of course it's good! We are very happy to set up a branch. But... let's not hide it from you, our church has not been established for a long time, and the staff is limited, I am afraid it is I can't draw enough clerics to serve the lord..."
She said with a worried look on her face.
The relationship between priests and lords is intricate and difficult to explain in just a few sentences. But like this time, it's easy to explain - Count Tarakhan wanted to recruit some clerics to serve him, so he found a beauty and a man who didn't seem to be strong and whose teachings had nothing to do with the lord's rule. Art Church.
However, the Church of Beauty and Art really can't produce many powerful priests!
The Archbishop's own strength is quite good, and he is considered to be able to fight in the high-level ranks. According to the words of the traversers, it is the blue name of the 50th and higher. .
But in addition to herself, the second master in the entire beauty and art church, her beloved disciple Aurora Weiss, is barely a middle-level person-also according to the people who have passed through, it is the talent Around level 20, what a green name.
Clergymen of this strength, I dare not say that they are all over the street, at least two or three hundred in the city of Terrera, there is absolutely no problem. Even if Tara Khan's territory is in the north and there is a shortage of talents, there will never be a shortage of clerics of this level.
Archbishop Angelique was really embarrassed to send such an apprentice to a branch of the church.
And...to benefit from others is to serve others. With Aurora's ability, he might have given up his life all at once. Angelique didn't have many students, and even fewer decent ones, she was really reluctant.
Seeing that the archbishop seemed a little reluctant, Wang Tuhao smiled slightly and said, "Archbishop, you are overthinking it. What the count actually wants is not a powerful clergyman, but an art school."
The Archbishop was taken aback and looked at him suspiciously.
Eric took up the conversation and explained: "Our count intends to build an art school to give the noble children in the territory a place to learn art and cultivate their sentiments, but although there are many scholars who are proficient in art, none of them are willing to give it to them. A large group of children are in class. This time I just heard that you have an art school for the general public, so the earl sent me here to see if I can recruit some teachers and open our art school in Tarakhan."
"Shouldn't aristocratic children learn culture, etiquette, and martial arts?" The Archbishop asked immediately, not a novice who didn't understand anything.
"Just learning those things is not enough." Eric replied, "We Tarakhans have always been regarded as vulgar, is it because we have no culture? Or do we not understand etiquette? Neither! Because our artistic level is low! If we, the nobles of Tara Khan, just pull one out, and they can speak righteously about art and music, who would have the nerve to call us vulgar?"
The Archbishop nodded slightly, feeling that what he said made sense.
"So, the earl gave me an order to invite some art teachers - for this reason, whether it is room and board, temples, or offerings of money, you are all indispensable." Eric said the discussion among the travelers. The result, "In short, as long as you send a group of teachers who can make do with us to solve the art desert problem for our young Tarakhan, we can discuss the future things slowly."
Faced with such conditions, Archbishop Angelique finally no longer hesitated and agreed.
