Summoning Total War

Chapter 39 New Year Celebration (Part 1) Please vote for me!

(After a day of rest, my thinking became much clearer. I was almost confused by a few troublemakers.

Today there was an explosion of over 10,000 words. Summon ***! )

----------------------------------------

The last days of December.

The city of Athens is making urgent preparations for the New Year celebrations. A large amount of supplies have been purchased. The flowerbeds on both sides of the road are actually blooming with flowers again in this cold winter month. Fountains are scattered, and gorgeous marble sculptures have decorated the entire city. Beautiful.

What Murphy didn't expect was that the first person to perform a miracle would be Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty.

It seems that this goddess with whom he has a quite 'close' relationship is really only interested in these things. As the goddess of love and beauty, Aphrodite is not afraid of anything, because as long as humans still exist and long for beauty and love, she will not truly fall. The god of the Cross religion claims to be omnipotent, but I’m afraid not many believers will seek love and beauty from him, right?

In fact, the only one in the entire Olympian pantheon who was not greatly affected by Ragnarok was Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty.

This is why when the Temple of Love was established, in the auxiliary system summary of "Total War", although her divine power was shown as endangered, her divine ability was the only one with full power.

………………

The news that the city of Athens was going to hold a grand celebration soon spread to the rear of the human city-state.

Driven by profit, many merchants rushed towards the territorial ports with large quantities of goods. For a time, the floating population in the city of Athens skyrocketed, and even petty theft and security problems suddenly increased. Murphy even had to increase the number of troops maintaining law and order to 800 people, which was ten full teams of Greek heavy infantry!

It is completely conceivable how many businessmen rushed here driven by profits.

Before the New Year celebrations even began, news of a miracle in Athens was spread.

Along with the merchants, there were also many freedmen who had relatively well-off resources.

In fact, many freedmen would serve as vendors during some celebrations.

There was not much entertainment in this primitive and barren era. In the past six months of development, the reputation of the city of Athens for its beauty and prosperity has gradually spread to all corners of the southern plains with Murphy's name! Everyone knows that the Greeks have a wise and mighty lord. He not only defeated the powerful jackals time and time again, but he was also outstanding in territory construction!

In just one year, he led his people to miraculously build a city.

The miracles in Athens were personally experienced by Murphy.

Because all of this was arranged by Helen, the priest of love, in order to save time, this increasingly lazy mermaid pestered Murphy to help him complete the oracle conveyed by Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty.

For this reason, the mermaid even pestered Murphy for a whole night!

That was a whole night!

With Murphy's extremely strong physique like a Spartan warrior, his legs almost felt weak when he got up the next day.

In fact.

In every corner of the flower garden, there are magic circles made of beautiful shells. These magic circles provide energy for the flowers, plants and trees in the flower garden, plus the divine power of Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty.

So in just one and a half weeks, the flowers are blooming again in the dead of winter!

For the big nobles, they can naturally understand that this is mainly the function of magic. But for ordinary civilians, this is undoubtedly a miracle!

Because only gods can make flowers bloom in the cold winter.

The merchants who came to sell goods quickly made a small profit. However, the population of the city of Athens was limited after all. Because there were too many merchants who got wind of the situation, their profits were not too high. However, just when they were about to leave in disappointment, Plife, a former slave merchant and now the financial officer of the Port of Athens, gave them a great idea!

That is to tell more people that a miracle occurred in the city of Athens, and countless flowers bloomed overnight. For this reason, those Greeks prepared to hold a huge New Year ceremony to thank the gods for their gifts.

This is the benefit of having smart subordinates.

In order to achieve the effect of publicity, Pulifa even exaggerated the blooming time of the flowers to one night, and then attributed all this to the arrangement of the gods.

Naturally.

It makes sense why the city of Athens will hold a *** New Year Festival.

After all, if a celebration like this is held for no reason, there will definitely be some problems.

And it won't be that attractive.

For their own benefit, in order to attract more people to watch the celebration, and in order to create more business opportunities, the businessmen consciously began to promote Athens and shamefully exaggerated the words of the businessman Plife.

The final result was that the residents of Athens saw the miracle with their own eyes!

Countless beautiful flowers bloomed in front of their eyes, and the fragrance of flowers wafted in the air. They heard the teachings of the gods and knelt down in the snow to pray.

Finally, in order to thank the gods for their blessings, the Greeks decided to celebrate January 1st as the new year.

As the most important holiday celebration of the year!

Everything is perfected in lies and exaggeration.

The truth of history is obscured by the fog, and everything becomes natural.

Under the terrible propaganda offensive of the merchants, the news that the city of Athens was about to hold a grand celebration spread throughout the human city-states. Even some neighboring cities were affected and began to prepare for smaller New Year celebrations. In this regard, the Marchioness Elizabeth played a leading role.

--------------------------------

Regarding this accident, Murphy praised the slave merchant Puli Fei fiercely.

However, he lowered his head very humbly, and then humbly stated that all this was the arrangement of the priest of the God of Love.

Then, our beautiful little mermaid glanced at Murphy, with a reserved smile on her charming face.

Murphy immediately and quietly squeezed her soft little hand, gently drew a circle on his palm, and then tapped it with his middle finger. A faint blush suddenly appeared on the mermaid priest's beautiful face, and even her expression became a little shy. She quietly took out the little hand held by Murphy, covered up the blush on her face without leaving a trace, opened her red lips slightly, and made a '7 times' mouth shape.

Suddenly!

Murphy's face turned slightly pale, and he immediately made a very heavy decision in his heart.

He decided to study the potion alchemy in "Goblin Alchemy" seriously after he returned. Because when he was browsing briefly at that time, he seemed to have found some very 'interesting' potions that could make any female creature... ahem... The high priest was there at the time, and Murphy didn't dare to look carefully at all. Covered.

But he still carefully folded a corner.

Um.

It must be despised.

This book "Goblin Alchemy" does not have a catalog of works.

Not even a page count.

Before civilization developed and expanded, how many people knew that a simple punctuation mark was an amazing innovation in ancient times?

Some seemingly coincidental things set the stage for the New Year Festival.

The prestige of Athens also began to appear in the eyes of the indigenous people for the first time. The next step is to condense it!

………………

Due to the appearance of the goblin alchemist Squi-Siblin, the level of forging technology recognized by the "Total War" auxiliary system in the Athens territory has undergone great changes.

This does not mean that the territory can suddenly produce alloy steel like the dwarves.

In fact, just the huge furnaces to make the alloy steel took more than five years to prepare. Because there is no other way. There are no grinding tools or machine tools in this world. All original parts have to be made manually, that is, they are forged bit by bit.

You can imagine the time it takes!

The forging process of the dwarves can be said to be the original version of the iron-making factory, and in the territory of Athens, there are only small-scale workshops at best.

The gap between this is really too big.

It's like there are scientists and engineers, but they don't even have a laboratory or factory to perform their work. If you throw them into a small workshop, how can they still shout "Burn my little universe", and then all of a sudden It broke out directly?

Lagging behind in hardware often requires a lot of resources and time to accumulate.

"Armor shop: Armorers and blacksmiths work together to make high-quality armor to match the good weapons made by the blacksmith. Their products are very popular with soldiers, and well-made armor can often determine life or death! Plus a good blacksmith , they can allow this city to train entire formations of warriors with high-standard equipment. The armor shop has already formed a large-scale workshop, and it is developing in the direction of a forge. (It can forge scale armor, half-body armor, and chain mail. Heavy weapons +1, light weapons +1, bow weapons +1, armor +1.)”

………………

After the territory's current equipment change is completed, the soldiers' weapons are uniformly recognized as +1 status by the "Total War" auxiliary system. After being trained by the priests of the Temple of War, the experience levels displayed by the soldiers are combat skills +2. Some troops that have experienced frequent battles have been displayed as a silver bar, which means combat skills +4!

Those soldiers who are recognized as +2 combat experience by the "Total War" auxiliary system are very good fighters.

Although they are not as powerful as the Spartans, they are much stronger than those aboriginal soldiers.

………………

The emergence of Goblin Alchemist Squee-Sbrin has brought about some changes in the auxiliary system of "Total War".

Because in the auxiliary system.

When the iron technology research progress was only about 15% complete, the steelmaking technology research in the territory had already started reading! ! !
