Chapter 170 The Bishop of Xingzhou Church
The application of the ultra-long-distance star array is extremely narrow, and the cost is very expensive. If it were not for the mandatory requirements of the Xingzhou Holy Church, few local churches would build it.
Although it may seem to many people to be an unnecessary wasteful act, Father Li Zhong's predecessor's predecessor had already completed the star array a long time ago.
In fact, in the next hundred years, no one has used the ultra-long-distance star array.It cannot transmit goods. In the process of transmitting astromancers, in addition to needing 8 high-level astromancers to maintain the operation, it is also necessary for the person being transmitted to calculate various direction data by himself.Not only that, because the teleportation process puts a lot of pressure on the human body, it also requires the astromancer himself to be able to withstand a very high star point.
In other words, those who can pass through the ultra-long-distance star array must be high-level and high-star star warlocks.
In the history of Great Xia, there were probably not many such astrologists born.
But in Xingzhou, Li Zhong often heard that there were very powerful star warlocks.
Therefore, when the ultra-long-distance star array really starts to activate, let alone the third prince, even the real prince, he can't take care of it.
This kind of large-scale star array is very noisy when it is running. Li Zhong just felt the corner of the inner hall where the star array was placed, and felt the ground vibrate.
Eight high-level star warlocks arrived at the position earlier than him. Although the ultra-long-distance star array had hardly been activated, the method was not complicated.
Li Zhong looked excitedly at the gradually shining star array in front of him. He had never seen an astromancer who could withstand 5000 star points, so he didn't know what kind of star array he could carve out.Coupled with the level of intelligence that can manipulate ultra-long-distance star arrays, it is easy for him to consider star warlocks above level [-]...

The third prince who had just entered the hall also felt the vibration under his feet. Two servants quickly stood in front of him and blocked him before looking around.
All the astromancers who had the ability to fly flew up, but including Cheng Jinzhou, they all looked crooked.
A second-level star warlock shouted first: "It is a large star array that is in operation."
Then several astrologists with higher self-sustaining levels floated up.
Cheng Jinzhou was not interested in joining in the fun, so he wandered to the third prince's side and greeted him with a smile: "Young King Yanping, thank you for coming to the holy hall to attend the banquet."
"Mr. Cheng already has the consciousness of being a landlord? Haha." The third prince laughed loudly, and then stretched out his hand to hold Cheng Jinzhou.
Compared with the lukewarmness of officials in modern society, officials in feudal society were actually more enthusiastic.Because under normal circumstances, they rarely have physical contact with other people—except concubines and maidservants—so when they need to express affection, they can do it more freely and fully, without reaching out A pair of tired, limp little white hands that have been touched thousands of times by countless people.
Previously, Cheng Jinzhou only wanted to make money and become a scholar, so he did not want to join anyone's alliance, just like the small countries that adhere to non-alignment in the 21st century - they were not qualified to choose the partners for alliance, and they were worried about being chosen wrongly.
As his wings gradually became fuller, Cheng Jinzhou felt different when he met the third prince again.
Whether there is civil strife or fornication in the royal family, it has always been a game between father and son. Emperor Lizong's desire to centralize power is deeply rooted, and the third prince's expectation of recruiting allies does not seem to be impossible.
Cheng Jinzhou thought wildly, squeezed the third prince's hand slightly, and said: "Let me entertain His Highness the third prince today."
"Then trouble Mr. Cheng." The royal family's children still have some advantages, at least he will not be negligent because of Cheng Jinzhou's age, let alone show anxiety because of the shaking of the ground.
Several priests went back to the inner hall to inquire about the situation. After a while, they came out with nervous and excited expressions on their faces, and the visiting guests looked at each other in blank dismay.
Father Li Zhong didn't intend to hide anything, but he didn't want to make extra troubles until the envoys from the Xingzhou Holy Church successfully arrived.
Among the government officials present, there was no one who could compare with Yanping County King, so Cheng Jinzhou stood by his side with peace of mind, said a few words, and asked tentatively: "Your Highness, how do you treat Hou Wenwu?" watch?"
"Oh? What do you think?" The third prince fully understood Cheng Jinzhou's thoughts. He glanced at him and at the same time swept the door of the inner hall of the temple and said, "Father likes him, but I am not familiar with him."
Cheng Jinzhou nodded pretendingly and said, "I don't know where Hou Wenwu's weakness is, but I really want to cooperate with the third prince."
Hearing the word "cooperation", the third prince was overjoyed immediately, his eyes brightened and he said, "I can ask someone for a question."
"That's very good." Cheng Jinzhou quickly thanked him.
No matter what kind of cooperation it is, it always goes from low-level to high-level. Sometimes asking for help with simple things is a good start.
The shaking continued until the wine urn shook.
A follower finally came forward and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, let's leave first."
When the prince came down to the church, he would bring an astromancer by his side, but the latter often did not follow suit, but waited in the carriage and was contacted by his attendants.
"Don't worry." The third prince said, then looked at Cheng Jinzhou and said, "It's no problem."
"Probably." Cheng Jinzhou shrugged, he didn't even know what was going on.
The performance of large-scale star arrays, skilled astrologers all understand, have never seen such a long-lasting energy spillover, the responsibility of the astrologists is even more serious.The attendant shook his head vigorously and said, "Your Highness, let's go."
Cheng Jinzhou was also worried that something might happen, and when he tried to persuade him, the shock stopped abruptly.
The gentlemen in the inner hall became startled and uncertain.
"It's Father Li Zhong." The few people closest to the inner hall saw Li Zhong's figure first, but they all shut up soon.
The voice in the hall became smaller and smaller, and gradually no one spoke.
Cheng Jinzhou raised his head, wanting to break the silence, but was shocked by the stronger visual effect.
A black double-breasted military-style coat, a brown turtleneck sweater under a big V-neck, a dark blue vertical striped shirt, and dark casual trousers—this kind of dress would be absolutely fashionable in the era before Cheng Jinzhou crossed over Pioneer, but in the Great Xia Dynasty, it was more like the product of some kind of eccentricity.
"Everyone..." Li Zhong understood the feelings of others, and he said as simply as possible: "Please get to know Bishop Kant from Xingzhou Holy Church."
Without waiting for others to respond, the thin Kant jumped up first when he heard his name, stood in the middle of the crowd, and shouted in half-baked Xia Guoyu: "Friends from Daxia, how are you? I am from Kant of Xingzhou, I came to see you..."
indifference...
Cheng Jinzhou gently covered his eyes with his hands, and couldn't bear to look at those big-toed leather shoes that were raised three inches high.

Other than the word count: I didn’t complete it successfully today, so let’s update 2000 words.
