Territory Blessing

Fran hesitated when submitting her Paper. She remembered Iris reminding her that it would be best to upload Paper using a different account...

Fran's situation is different; her goal is to increase her chances of being nominated for the Gold Alchemy Award later, and if she uses another account...

If she wants to hide her identity using other accounts, the best way is to register multiple accounts and upload Paper on different topics, so that the other party cannot discover that these Paper were all written by Fran.

But it's clear that Fran's current goal isn't to hide. If she wanted to hide, she wouldn't need to come here to publish Paper, and she could even do nothing at all, so no one would ever find her.

After a moment's hesitation, Fran finally decided to publish all these Paper on "Lai's " account, and even all future mathematical works on it.

If all the Paper are on mathematics, then even if they were all posted by the account ' Lai ', it wouldn't be surprising. At most, people would just be a little surprised at how prolific ' Lai ' is.

Fran made up her mind, turned and left, and began preparations to head to Anna's small village.

A day later, Fran rode her Black Horse at breakneck speed down the main road, heading towards Snow Bear Territory.

After being promoted to Sunflame Knight, Fran's physique improved, and she was able to keep up with the speed of the Black Horse, even finding it somewhat slow.

When her physical condition was low, she had to concentrate to move steadily forward on the Black Horse, but after her physical condition improved, she could even daydream and read books on the Black Horse.

This made her journey less monotonous than before, and the time spent on horseback flew by.

While riding the Black Horse, Fran also took the opportunity to test out the Sunflame Knight's riding abilities.

Just as all knights should know how to ride a horse, the Sunflame Knight also has a set of tips for fighting on horseback. However, these tips are not considered major Arts and cannot be displayed on the Panel.

However, with Fran's mastery of Sunflame Arts, she only needed a few tries before successfully executing the Sunflame Arts on horseback.

After the Sunflame erupted from her body, they spread down to the Black Horse beneath her, and in just a few seconds, the entire Black Horse was covered in a red light.

The red light enveloped the Black Horse, making it seem as if it could only see the road ahead through a red filter. This initially made it uncomfortable, but after experiencing the power of the red light, it had no further complaints.

First, there are the depressions and bumps in the ground; even at extremely high speeds, the Black Horse would occasionally trip over these things.

Although Fran's modifications greatly enhanced its ability to adjust its body, in many cases, this only caused it to stagger slightly and was not enough to stop it from continuing to move.

After receiving this red light, it discovered that it was no longer afraid of these uneven surfaces, because it could create uneven surfaces itself.

Its hooves were also covered in red light. Every time it hit the ground, the range of the red light had to be carefully adjusted, otherwise its hooves would sink into the soil.

Even with the red light turned down to its lowest setting, a shallow, charred Shallow Pit would still be left when its horse's hoof struck the ground...

The unevenness it creates is even deeper than the original road surface, so it can be said that it is destroying the road.

However, the red light on the Black Horse had more than just that effect; it covered the entire Black Horse.

Fran then directed the Black Horse to crash directly into a withered tree by the roadside.

Although the tree wasn't very tall, it was still as thick as a person could hug. Even Black Horse that had become First Order Magic Creature couldn't guarantee it wouldn't fall over when it crashed into it at top speed.

However, with the help of the red light, the Black Horse passed through as if it were nothing, leaving a huge hole that caused the upper part of the tree trunk to fall down.

"Not bad. With the help of my mount, I'm faster, and I can focus on maintaining my Sunflame. I just need to wait for the Black Horse to crash into me."

The Black Horse covered in red light was like a monster that would kill anyone it touched at low levels; no one dared to approach it, which shows how much of a role it would play on the Battlefield.

"No wonder he's called the Sunflame Knight. Although he's strong on foot, his mounted combat is simply too overwhelming compared to his foot soldiers..."

Fran made a slight complaint, then saw a familiar fence on the horizon; she had arrived at her destination.

Even before she arrived, she felt the resonance emanating from the territory, a feeling far stronger than when she left.

Fran could even sense a kind of anxiety within this feeling, as if the territory was urging Fran to come quickly and resonate with it.

Fran raised an eyebrow. If the territory could speak, Fran couldn't imagine what it would say now.

She sensed a longing in the feeling emanating from this place, along with a desire to expand herself.

Fran didn't linger and rode her Black Horse swiftly towards the village entrance. The gate was tightly shut, and several guards with weapons stood on a makeshift platform.

The guard standing on the high platform heard a thunderous sound gradually approaching from afar, followed by a dark figure rushing towards him at an unexpected speed. Before he could react, the dark figure had already stopped in front of him.

The guard had just rubbed his eyes, and before he could even confirm whether it was a hallucination, a slightly frightened voice came from beside him.

"It's that gentleman riding the Black Horse."

Upon hearing this, the guard shuddered and turned to look at his companion.

Only then did he realize that his companions were standing there in shock, and he quickly went over and gave one of them a push.

"Hurry up and open the door. This is the person His Excellency the Priest specifically instructed us to treat well."

Upon hearing this, the guards above finally reacted. Trembling, they opened the gate with a speed slightly faster than usual.

It wasn't that they didn't want to go faster; it was because of their excitement that their bodies were trembling so much that they couldn't control themselves and simply couldn't go faster.

Fran rode her Black Horse inside, and after only a brief response to the guards around her, she saw a shiver run down their spines.

She saw excitement and fear on the faces of these guards...

Just by looking at the expressions on the guards' faces, she understood why the territory had been so eager to resonate with her.

She rode her Black Horse toward the church in the center. Along the way, villagers attracted by the sound of the Black Horse's hooves bowed their heads toward her and murmured prayers.

"It seems Anna has managed this place quite well!"

Looking at the villagers' demeanor alone, she might only feel a little satisfied, since it hadn't yet touched upon her true goal—to obtain the Territory Blessing.

But if it were the Lord of Radiance, He would be extremely satisfied with all of this and would find no fault with it.

Fran didn't linger and headed straight for the church entrance. Soon, she arrived at the church entrance, which hadn't changed much from before.

Before this, Fran could see long queues at the entrance, but now, although there are still a lot of people, it's not crowded, and the church is just slightly full.

Fran saw Anna at the church entrance. Anna was standing there, looking in one direction as if lost in thought.

Upon hearing the noise, she turned around immediately and said with great surprise:

"Fran, you're finally here! I couldn't stand it any longer..."

Anna lowered her voice slightly when she said the last sentence, knowing that it was best not to be overheard here.

Because of the large number of believers in this village, warmth has spread throughout the entire village, so there is no need for everyone to come and crowd into this small place.

Ordinary Northern Territory would consider this place paradise, believing that as long as they pray to the Deity, they can dispel the harsh cold that accompanied their birth.

But this wasn't the case for Anna. To her, the standard of living here was low, which was an understatement. After all, she was First Order Profession with relatively high living needs.

She could tolerate it when on missions in the field, but now she could only work in a boring way and look at the stars, which she just couldn't stand.

"When can I leave? The residents here don't need my mediation anymore; Aila can handle everything. I'm useless here..."

Fran waved her hand and said slowly:

"Don't worry, Anna, I'm here to check. If all goes well, I can take you back to the Northern Lands Society tomorrow..."

"That's great! What are we waiting for? What do you need to confirm?" Anna excitedly interrupted Fran.

Fran rubbed her forehead, then took out a small black stone from her bag. One side of the stone was very smooth.

Fran immediately used her Mental Power to inscribe the content she had prepared beforehand onto the surface, and then used the [Self-Establishment Decree].

The above content contains the rules that Fran had previously instructed Anna to promulgate, and she has already instructed Anna to implement them.

The instant she used [Self-Establishment Decree], a gray light flashed from the stone tablet and then disappeared into thin air.

"Alright, we can leave tomorrow." Fran smiled, knowing she had achieved her goal.

"So fast..." Anna scratched her head, not asking too many questions, after all, she was just glad to be able to leave this place.

Fran could feel an unknown power surging within her. She immediately opened the Panel and saw this text in the trait section.

[Territory Blessing (When you are in a territory that resonates with you, all your attributes will be increased to a certain extent based on the size of the territory's attributes.)]
