Chapter 179 Holy Warrior
Can this money only provide food for the refugees for a month? No, no, this alone is definitely not enough.
As someone who escaped from the devil's pit by chance, no one can understand better than Scar what kind of help the migrating people need. Food, clothing, shelter and medicine are all indispensable, but only 75 platinum coins can not meet such needs.
Scar frowned with some worry, but at this moment, he suddenly remembered that Noshir seemed to have said that after selling the chariot, 1/3 of the total amount of money should be donated to the Temple of Mercy in the name of Master Harsin to help the residents of Eltoril who are about to come to Baldur's Gate. According to the current transaction, 1/3 of the amount is 500 platinum coins and 5,000 gold coins. This money can definitely properly settle all the refugees.
5,000 gold coins, what a huge fortune. Anyone can use this money to buy a manor in the inner city of Baldur's Gate, and even have a lot of money left, and then live a healthy and prosperous life, but now he wants to donate all this money.
I hope Noshir won't blame me for making such a decision for him without authorization.
Scar thought with some worry. Although he knew Noshir's character and knew that he would never fail the oath he made to Master Harsin, it would be best for Noshir to do this kind of thing himself. Doing so by himself is already a certain degree of overstepping.
But then Scar shook his head again. He has come here now, and he also has the money that should be donated. If he stops at this time and goes back to Noshir, and then lets him bring the money here to donate...
This is too troublesome and rigid. If he really does this, it may indeed satisfy his pursuit of etiquette and rules and regulations, but the time wasted back and forth is too serious. But now their time is precious and can't afford such meaningless waste.
With his mind set on the matter, Scar stopped thinking. He took off the backpack from his waist and put it on the ground. He reached into the bag and grabbed the box and used his mind to communicate with the space box, asking it to release enough wealth according to his idea.
As he thought, the box released a full 500 platinum coins. Scar also took out the box and put it into the small bag on his waist, and then handed the backpack that had become a little bulging to Father Logan in front of him.
"This is the wealth donated in the name of the Grand Druid of the Green Forest, Master Harsin. The specific amount is very large, which is definitely enough to help those people get properly resettled, and there will even be a lot of wealth. You keep it."
Father Logan took the backpack handed over by Scar with some doubts, even confusion. The heaviness in his hand woke him up instantly. He instantly realized what he was holding, but he still asked in disbelief.
"This, this is..."
"Just as you thought, I know you have many questions, but please believe me, this gift is purely out of goodwill, please accept it with confidence."
After handing the wealth to Father Logan, Scar told him not to expose the money casually, and then turned to leave. At this moment, Father Leeson on the side suddenly said
"Wait a minute! You, are you one of the unknown heroes published in the newspaper today?"
"..."
Skar did not respond, or he acquiesced to this.
--
As early as this morning, what happened at the Duke of Van Sample's house last night had spread throughout the streets and alleys of Baldur's Gate.
Various newspapers worked overtime last night, and in just one night, these newspapers printed enough newspapers to be published in every corner of Baldur's Gate.
Everyone is saying that a group of unknown heroes thwarted the conspiracy of Duke VanSample last night and saved Baldur's Gate from possible destruction. The words are exaggerated and full of praise, making every Baldur who sees this newspaper involuntarily exclaim in admiration that there are such legendary heroes in the world.
And why this should have been a secret, but it has been spread to everyone, just because it is a countermeasure that has been discussed long ago.
Advisor Florrick will form a small but powerful elite team to go to Hell to rescue the Grand Duke, while Beorn, Palestine and Havanak will stay in Baldur's Gate and release some incomplete information through the newspaper, guiding the public's attention while confusing the villains.
For example, Beorn also deliberately published a message in the newspaper recruiting brave and powerful adventurers to follow Advisor Florrick and the unknown hero to Hell in seven days to rescue Grand Duke Ravengard from the water and fire.
But their actual action time is the day after tomorrow, and the newspapers say it is seven days later. Moreover, the names of the heroes are replaced by the general name of unknown heroes, and no valuable information is exposed.
——
"Father, it will not do you any good to inquire about this kind of thing, but it will bring danger. No matter what you guess in your heart, I hope you don't speak out your guess casually to avoid trouble."
Ska turned around and said to them seriously, and facing this almost tacit response, the two priests instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's great. Although I believe that all those who come to the temple to collect donations have a kind heart, I have never seen such a large amount of donations in my life. This really makes me a little worried, but fortunately."
After saying this, Father Logan breathed a sigh of relief again, and then the two priests looked at each other and performed a symbolic etiquette of Ilmet's followers.
"Powerful and noble holy warrior, your kindness will surely make Ilmet look at you, please accept this."
Holy warrior, this is a general term for the profession of holy warriors by the clergy of some temples, and Father Lisen took out a brown badge from the bedside box in the rest area at this time. The pattern on the badge is a pair of scarred hands tied by a red rope.
"This is the holy emblem of our Lord Ilmet. We will only issue it to true friends of Ilmet's followers."
"We appreciate your help, but we really don't have the ability to do more. Ilmet's followers are not born to fight. The purpose of our existence is to heal the pain of the world. As long as you hold this badge, any Ilmet believer will provide you with free treatment. Please accept this."
Rison held the badge with both hands and placed it solemnly in front of Scar, who also straightened his expression and took the badge with both hands in the same solemn manner.
"I will cherish it."
