Chapter 1565: Chapter 788: Negotiation
Recruiting faithful of Ilmater among humans is the right path, not only because they have a broad foundation of faith making it easier to promote, but also because many people can empathize, especially those who have suffered from ailments and were cared for and healed by priests of Ilmater, often being drawn to join their ranks.
The Conqueror Army marched these three thousand five hundred kilometers, engaging in more than four major wars, not to mention countless skirmishes and conflicts along the way (mostly where the Conqueror Army conveniently wiped out bandits and monsters), and various normal ailments are abundant, requiring the healers.
Under Gaven’s relentless support, the number of healers under Anna’s command experienced explosive growth, since the Conqueror Army inherently had a large number of faithful of Ilmater, including priests.
Especially on the Giant Dragon Coast, there was an explosive growth in personnel, because the immigrants coming from there were either the old, weak, sick, and disabled given by the Dark Forces to Gaven, or the Limbseverers who came voluntarily. Googlᴇ search 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚✦𝕟𝕖𝕥
Many of them have suffered from diseases and limb severance for years, holding a strong favor towards the healers, making them easier to convert.
When arriving at the City of Faith, the medical system of the Conqueror Army had already formed a basic structure, with elites drawn from it to form battlefield medics.
Produced by the Gaven territory, the Shadow Cloak, Life Staff, Composite Cuirass, Howard Convenient Bag, and Air Glass Arm Shield were standard equipment meant to enhance their survival and healing abilities on the battlefield.
Gaven nodded to Anna, saying: “Assist in healing them, both sides need it.”
“Understood.” Anna replied, ordering, “Pair up, first stabilize the injuries of those on the brink of death, concentrate the bodies of the deceased, ensure matching of limbs with the individuals as much as possible, then those severely injured, begin.”
The growth of the stuttering priest is not merely in personal strength; like the budding of a flower, her body is further blossoming, her body’s lines are more apparent, and the baby fat on her face is fading.
The biggest change is in her spirit and energy; although the defect in the healing spells has been identified, a suitable cure has yet to be found, she now rarely allows it to affect her mindset, and the stuttering habit appears especially in her own professional field.
Life experiences are the best nutrients for mental age growth, this phrase is indeed true.
Those natural races living in monotonous environments, even if possessing hundreds of years of age, their mental age is less mature than teenagers who have been mixing in human cities for years.
“At your command.” These battlefield medics replied, paired up, and rushed towards areas with the highest concentration of patients.
Whether Laiserman or the Brotherhood of Sword Spike, although they replaced most of the weapons with sticks beforehand, when actually on the battlefield, no one held back, as doing so would be irresponsible to oneself, at most they would avoid deliberately striking downed enemies.
Thus, a large-scale armed conflict still resulted in significant casualties, mainly with injuries like internal organ rupture and broken arms and legs.
Those battlefield medics, while jogging lightly, pointed to the Ilmater Holy Symbol on their cuirass, loudly declaring in common language: “We are siblings of the God of Tears, we come to share and expel the pain you bear.”
The Ilmater Holy Symbol holds a status in Felen equivalent to the Red Cross on Earth.
Except for a rare few followers of hostile True Gods, or malintent evil individuals, even most intelligent monsters usually do not harm them, for if they find themselves tortured by ailments, and seek these followers of the God of Tears for help, they are usually not stingy in extending a Hand of Aid, caring for and healing them.
This is also where the God of Tears and his followers are criticized by many kind-hearted people for their overly rampant compassion, which can lead to greater disasters and destruction.
Some intelligent monsters or evil individuals may be moved and assimilated by their selfless kindness, repent, turn over a new leaf, and no longer harm others.
But more often, they continue as before, cruelly killing, even gnawing people other than the followers of the God of Tears.
Even worse, a real-life farmer and snake scenario plays out, where the intelligent monsters, after being healed by Ilmater’s priests, turn around to put them into cooking pots.
In conclusion, the Holy Emblem of the God of Suffering is still very effective as a universal symbol for healers, recognized by both Laiserman and the Brotherhood of Sword Spike, with the injured being alert but not refusing their treatment.
After making the appropriate arrangements, Gaven then approached the three leaders of the Brotherhood of Sword Spike, smiling as he said: “I believe there may be some misunderstandings between us. I am not here to conquer, but to aid, to help the Eastern Region and all of Felen avoid massive wars.”
For these affairs blessed with a sacred aura, Gaven now handles them with ease.
This aura is ineffective on highly cunning beneficiaries, but it works very well on those ordinary citizens with limited insights.
