Sword and Magic and Taxi

There is currently no evidence for the speculation of divine interference, but this undoubtedly gave Zhao Mai a wake-up call. Golarion is not a place where one can pay attention to science. The gods here do exist and their influence is amazing. He is just a mortal, almost powerless in the face of divine power. So at this stage, we can only act according to the rules, but we cannot put ourselves on the opposite side of a certain god.

Fortunately, he is a druid. Apart from the few gods who want to destroy everything, he has no natural enemies. What's more, those gods have already made countless enemies, and he will not lack allies. If you choose a priest with stronger healing ability, not to mention whether your more than 20 years of atheism will be an obstacle, just say that when you choose a god, there will inevitably be a certain opposing camp, which is a troublesome thing. It will definitely slow down your practice and even threaten your life.

If he didn't have such concerns, Zhao Mai's first choice would be Sharon Lai, the sun goddess of eternal healing, and then try to be a powerful milk herder.

It's too late to say this now. Zhao Mai will not give up the conveniences of Druid. Even for the future growth of food reserves, he will not change his banner.

After a lot of ideological struggle, Zhao Mai finally decided to follow the Paladins on horseback instead of driving. The biggest reason is the same: a car that is not affected by the outside world is also isolated from the power of nature. While avoiding danger, it also blocks the way to exercise oneself through danger. Besides, who can guarantee that all roads ahead will be passable by cars?

Mike, you came here very early. Are you ready? Leaving the town means danger, so Hazel is fully armed. Her mount is a tall snow-white horse. If the black mane and tail are also dyed white and a cone is inserted on its forehead, it can definitely be disguised as a unicorn. The mounts of these Paladins have sacred contracts with them. They are very well-behaved and obedient, and they are also extremely brave in battle.

On the other hand, Zhao Mai found that the horse he bought from the town was just an ordinary gray walking horse, which was a full head shorter. It was neither powerful nor majestic, and had no combat training. Of course, Zhao Mai has never been trained in horseback combat, and he has never thought about such complicated tactics.

Wait a moment, I'll discuss it with my mount first.

When his horse saw the Holy Knight's mount, he began to feel inferior, lowering his head and unwilling to act, as if he was frightened. Zhao Mai walked up to it, held its chin with one hand, and kept stroking the gray horse's forehead with the other. Huihui, don't be nervous. You are a good horse. I am not a good rider, so I still need you to take care of me. I don't dare to let you run fast, let alone lead you to the battlefield. Those are just a few of the other The horse's job is not yours. I just hope you can do well and carry me safely through the journey. Can you do this?

The gray horse sword tip calmed down and stared at Zhao Mai with a pair of big eyes, gradually glowing with understanding. It opened its lips, gently licked Zhao Mai's hand, then shook its mane, raised its head and called twice.

Okay, I'm relying on you! Zhao Mai patted the horse's neck, checked the straps binding the saddle and the luggage hanging on the saddle one last time, and then turned on the horse. He wiggled his hips and looked for a suitable sitting position, looking like a novice.

Can you do it? Hazel took a look and said, Your ability is very good. You can make the horse calm down quickly. I have only seen similar abilities in very skilled horse trainers.

Horse tamers use the ability to tame animals, while we druids use the power of nature to communicate with animals. The two are different. Zhao Mai explained: Horse tamers can only target one or two types of animals. The animals used as mounts rely on years of accumulated experience. There is no restriction for druids in this regard, as long as they are animals. Because no matter from any point of view, humans are also animals, and they also have natural force in their bodies. It’s just that you have wisdom.”

Humans are humans, and animals are animals. The two cannot be confused. Hazel shook her head.

Zhao Mai had no intention of provoking a dispute of faith, so he said: Of course there are differences between the two, but they also have something in common. They are both within the system of the natural force. People can also accept divine power and even become new gods, just like Just like the goddess Iomedae. But it is undeniable that when a person is born, he only has the force of nature.

I'm not. Hazel shook her index finger, I was born with the blessing of the goddess, and I will dedicate my life to the goddess.

Then you have to work harder and not live up to the goddess's expectations of you. Zhao Mai thought for a while and then said: Oh, I understand. No wonder you can ask the goddess for answers, even questions about the past of gods. Answer accurately, it turns out there is a reason for this.

Hazel smiled, the answer was self-evident. She clipped her white horse, and then said to her companions: Advance in alert formation, I will follow Mike.

Captain, aren't you tired of being with him? A female knight with short reddish hair covered her mouth and said with a smile: You can't always look at him, but you also have to be alert to the surrounding environment!

Hazel didn't smile at all and remained serious, Don't talk nonsense. Now you must pay attention to discipline. No one can relax in the slightest. Do you understand?

Yes! The knights tapped their fists on the hilts of their swords and replied in unison.

This is a group of very energetic Paladin women. Although they are older or younger, and their levels are higher or lower, they do not hinder their affection for each other. They are both comrades-in-arms and sisters, and have quite a tacit understanding. As soon as Zhao Mai entered this group, he immediately seemed out of place.

The first is sitting posture. Zhao Mai has only ridden horses in amusement parks and tourist resorts. The maximum forward speed did not exceed fifteen kilometers per hour, and the distance did not exceed five kilometers. It could only be regarded as a stroll. He was riding a horse, his body was crooked, stiff, tense, and very uncoordinated. And the heroic female knights around him looked majestic and elegant. No matter how you look at it, he looks like graffiti on a piece of art, dirt on a gorgeous coat.

Then there's style. Six paladins (one of whom went north to Gauduria Castle to inquire about news from the north) lined up in a row, with shining armor and fluttering cloaks, like six mighty flags. Zhao Mai was wearing coarse leather armor, had frizzy short hair, and had panicked eyes. Fortunately, he was not wearing shackles or chains, otherwise he would just look like a prisoner in custody.

Fortunately, Hui Hui was more cooperative and constantly adjusted his posture so that Zhao Mai could sit safely on his back. It walked briskly, following Hazel's white horse Unicorn, seemingly effortlessly. It seems that letting the tall horse walk in front can effectively reduce the wind resistance following.

Zhao Mai was thinking wildly while bumping, and he almost lost his aerodynamics.
