Work Prophet

The Noble passed the telescope in his hand to another person beside him, who took it skeptically, imitated him, and raised it to his own eyes.

Soon, he too exclaimed in amazement, "It's true, I can see the deer as well, I can even make out its eyes and the beautiful antlers on its head!"

"This is simply magical! With this Holy Artifact, we will be able to grasp the enemy's movements before the war begins."

The telescope was passed around, some used it to look at the distant forest, others to observe the town at their feet, and there were those who tried to watch the birds in the sky...

One and all, they were astonished by the clear vision provided by this small gadget in their hands.

And Li Yu performing a miracle himself was more inspiring than any promise or assurance.

Although they could still not guess what kind of Divine Punishment Saturday would bring down to prevent the Wing Tribe from conquering the Bratis Continent.

But at least everyone's heart was no longer as lost and despairing as at the beginning.

After that, Kamzi was the first to draw his sword from his waist and shouted loudly, "For the Western Frontier!"

The Family Head of the Treles Family held his sword upright in front of him, followed by other Nobles who also drew their swords, echoing, "For the Western Frontier!!!!!"

The group formed a circle, overlapping the tips of their swords with each other, and Miss Rabbit was the last to draw her sword, placing the Beast Claw that Edward II had given her above all the others.

She also spoke solemnly, "For the Western Frontier!"

Pausing for a moment, the young lady continued, "I, Ireya, daughter of Ruse with the Blood Eye, Family Head of the Arias clan, Lady of Green Field, Crab's Corner, and Solid Stone Castle, Dragon Slayer Knight, Saturday's most devout follower, hereby swear.

"To become allies with all of you, to unite against the invasion of the Wing Tribe and defend the land left by our ancestors until my blade breaks, my blood runs dry, and I rest forever in my native land."

The Nobles then all followed the Lady in taking their oaths.

From this moment on, the Western Alliance was officially established.

However, the gathering did not end here, as the crowd moved from the banquet hall of Teacup Castle to the open ground in front of the castle.

Here, Li Yu conducted the initiation ceremony for those Lords who intended to join the Double Rest Sect.

Nowadays, with the West in turmoil, a series of events had already greatly weakened the Silver Moon Church, leaving it without its former glory.

Of course, the most important factor was Pisya's inability to provide protection for her followers. With a great enemy at the gates, the Lords of the Western Frontier finally set aside their traditional pride and sought refuge with Saturday.

One by one they came forward, knelt on one knee, and took their oaths of conversion to the melodious tune of "Oh, What a Beautiful Jasmine Flower," each receiving their silicone bracelet.

However, most of the Missionaries of the Double Rest Sect had already been dispatched for missionary work, and although Li Yu had recalled some of them, compared to the number of Noble Families now willing to open their doors to the Double Rest Sect, these missionary hands were simply not enough.

Therefore, although dozens of Family Heads from various sizes of families converted to Saturday, Li Yu couldn't convert all the people on their territories into followers in a short time.

In fact, during this period, the number on the faith counter of the system was growing every day, but the rate of increase was no longer rising.

This was certainly not because the market was saturated, but because the Double Rest Sect's own missionary manpower had reached its limit.

To further accelerate the pace, they could only continue expanding the team, and Li Yu was already taking steps in this regard.

He had two church schools under construction, preparing to make the training of the Sabbaths as standardized as possible.

However, finding enough potential candidates was not an easy task.

To become a Sabbath, one must first have a firm faith, and secondly, their thought and moral character must pass muster. Additionally, they need to be literate and numerate, well-versed in doctrines and various commandments, and possess a certain level of eloquence.

Upon inspection, the conditions were quite stringent, especially since the mere requirement of literacy was enough to disqualify many.

Therefore, Li Yu also needed to set up literacy classes; even with the quickest training cycle, it would take at least a year to mass-produce qualified missionaries.

Li Yu's main focus was still on the war with the Wing Tribe, and he didn't have time to constantly oversee the schools, so after appointing a principal, he handed this part of the work over to Quintus.

The latter had once been a High Priest of the Silver Moon Church, and with thousands of years of heritage, the Silver Moon Church had much to offer in terms of personnel training.

Most importantly, Quintus's moral standards far exceeded those of many; while this may be a disadvantage in playing political intrigues, it was more than suitable for an educational role to teach and nurture others.

After the initiation ceremony, Li Yu, as promised, presented each lord with a pair of binoculars.

Those who received this Holy Artifact were overjoyed, treasuring it as a priceless gift.

Afterward, the Lady invited everyone to stay one more night in the new town and participate in a banquet, utilizing this rare opportunity to strengthen relationships in preparation for future battles side by side.

However, a minor incident occurred at the banquet. Just as everyone was enjoying themselves, a squad of the Double Rest Sect's black dog guards suddenly rushed into the banquet hall.

They pinned the Boneless one from the Redmayne Family to the ground.

In an instant, the wine feast, previously filled with laughter and chatter, fell silent.

Only Florian's screams lingered, "Is this the way the Arias Family treats its guests?!"

Miss Rabbit, seated at the head, glanced at him and sipped her cola elegantly.

The Boneless continued, "Is this because I opposed your becoming the Commander of the Resistance Army? I don't believe I have offended you in any other matter, so this must be retribution for this morning's events."

Finally, another noble couldn't watch any longer and stood up, "Sir Irelia, let bygones be bygones. We have all made oaths, and now we are allies."

"Sir Coffey, do you also think I'm such a petty person?" the Lady finally spoke.

Coffey said nothing, which was taken as an affirmation of the suggestion.

It was clear to everyone that besides the morning's conflict, the Boneless had not further offended Irelia, and his Redmayne Family had no animosity towards the Arias Family.

The Wing Tribe hadn't arrived yet, and internal conflicts within the Resistance Army were not a good sign.

Seeing everyone watching, Miss Rabbit finally put down her cola and asked the squad leader Tom, "Is it just him?"

Tom nodded, "We caught one of his attendants fleeing Green Field in the middle of the night. The boy wasn't very tough; he spilled everything after just a little scare."
