Chapter 106: Audience

After a simple rest for a long time, relying on the restorative magic released by the three cardinals himself, Nokhan was able to drag his tired body and take hundreds of warriors and shamans from the original Tatos tribe to the church city, many of which are even unique to the tribe, as well as the [Revenant] with the same profession as Shepard, it can be said that this group of people is already the only remaining essence of Tatos.

Under the leadership of the giant dog Apche, who has become a god, the kingdom has acquired a large number of wild beasts from the kobold tribe who believe in the Great Sword of Light, although only a small number of them can be domesticated into camel beasts, which also greatly relieves the kingdom's transportation pressure, and even gives some to the elven allies.

In addition, the original resources of the kingdom, as well as the war horses captured by the natives from the expeditionary force, etc., were able to support Nockhan and his party to rush to the church city, nominally, naturally for the purpose of rewarding meritorious deeds and receiving them.

As the backbone of the Tatos high-level people left, the remaining thousands of refugees were surrounded by thousands of divine guards and nearly 100 knights of the cathars, without the slightest resistance, and the tame ones were placed in the camp camps, and the clergy led by the three cardinals carried out missions.

The saints touched people's hearts, the priests preached and solved doubts, the probationary priests picked up the gaps, and a complete set of brainwashing methods was carried out, and the refugees who already had a good foundation of faith accepted the fact that the birds of the wind had died together for the peace of the continent and the evil invaders, and the god of light, Tonatiu, would accept these lost lambs with a broad heart.

After the separation of the defectors, the wavering faction and the die-hard faction, the three cardinals were also relieved, and half of the tasks assigned by His Majesty the Pope had been completed, and all that remained was the thunder and heavy law with the water grinding kung fu.

……

On the other hand, after Nokhan and his party arrived in the church city, they were taken to the original station of the Divine Guard in the city and settled, even those professionals felt unbearable, not to mention Nokhan, a low-level warrior who was only a few points stronger than ordinary people.

Although his physical strength and endurance were very extraordinary, he was also tired enough, and after eating and washing, he threw himself into bed and slept hard for a day and a night before being awakened by the probationary priest who came to wake them up.

After washing his face with cold water and shivering, Nokhan finally came to his senses, and followed the very friendly and polite probationary priest out of the door, only to find that there were already many Tatos standing on the edge of the empty field of the station, but looking at their eyes, they were mostly wary or shocked.

As for the reason, it is the Divine Guards and knights standing in the empty field, fifty Divine Guard soldiers wearing the uniform of the Church Unification, the military appearance is neat, the military is mighty, and the awe-inspiring battlefield aura is coming, so that many self-proclaimed brave Tatos warriors also have solemn expressions, although several high-level professionals are not afraid of these Divine Guards, but they dare not underestimate the ten mighty and solemn, big shield and heavy armor of the Guardian Knights.

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty wants you to take these 'guests' with you to the main temple when you wake up, where your canonization ceremony will take place, and His Majesty the Pope will also receive these people."

As soon as Nockhan walked out, one of the leading knights walked over and said in a thick voice.

Nokhan raised his head slightly and looked at this knight who was half a head taller than himself, all the knights of the cathar were regarded as knighthoods with a lifetime system, so there was no difference between him and him, Nokhan was very happy to see the warrior of the pious God of Light, and said happily: "Trouble the knights, I will let them follow me to see Your Majesty!" ”

"All for the light!" The messenger shouted loudly, clenched his fist twice on his chest armor with one hand, and turned to join the queue.

"It's all for the light." Nokhan's mood fluctuated a little, and his voice was choked, until he took a few deep breaths to suppress the fluctuations in his heart, and then returned to the calm and bold caravan leader, and walked in front of the Tatos.

"Ladies and gentlemen! After all the hardships and dangers along the way, we have finally arrived at the sacred place that our Lord God of Light has promised to the pious, the place that bears the glory and cause of our Lord, the church city of the Kingdom of Dawn! And His Majesty the Pope, the Lord's spokesman on earth and the sole ruler of the kingdom, who owns the vast land between the White River and the Long River, will also receive us today! ”

With the sixty church warriors and knights behind him as his confidence, Nokhan felt that his voice had never been so powerful along the way: "Everyone! Do not forget your promises to me! Our lord Tonatiu, a merciful and generous deity! It is a great being who rules the sun, moon and light, and rules the world! But the glory of our Lord shelters only the faithful, and the mercy of our Lord accommodates only the good who yearn for the light! I don't need to say more about how you should choose! ”

Nokhan glanced around, no matter anger, humility, fear, hesitation, he only smiled coldly in his heart, the perfunctory and reassuring along the way made him tired, and he only felt refreshed at this time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this place is the place where my lord is watching, I hope you will think clearly before making a decision, and I don't have to say anything else, come with me!"

With a loud voice, Nock Hanlang turned around with a smile and said loudly to the knights: "Glorious knights of my lord, please take us to His Majesty the Pope!" ”

The sound of the collision of the armor leaves sounded, the knight who passed the word nodded, and shouted, the Divine Guard and the Guardian Knights turned around in unison, only to hear the sound of a neat step and the collision of clothes and armor, this team of less than 100 people suddenly had the momentum of hundreds of people.

Hundreds of warriors and shamans of Tatos had been seized by Nokhan and the knights at this time, and they obediently followed behind, while the strongest high-level professionals could faintly feel the irresistible existence in the center of the city, but they were more well-behaved than others, these people who chose to abandon the tribe before the war, regardless of their strength, they had more concerns and considerations than other clansmen

Where the army is stationed, there will be no civilians nearby, Shepard will never tolerate the behavior of the nobles of the Old World to let the hawkers and a few women enter the barracks, corrupting the military discipline and the strength of the warriors, fortunately, with the support of faith, the selected warriors and knights are all extremely determined candidates, and they are standard orthodox believers like the clergy, and there are not a few close to fanatical believers.

Therefore, after walking out of the barracks, everyone found the place that they had neglected when they arrived, the smooth and neat road, the neat and orderly houses, the tall and thick city walls in the distance, and the crowd of people who came and went with smiles and joy on their faces and dressed in neat and clean clothes not far away.

Everything in front of them showed a civilization advantage that was much ahead of Tatos, and although these rough old men who were almost hairy and blood-drinking did not have any thoughts of being ashamed of themselves, they had a real fear of the true god of light, and His Majesty the Pope, who ruled the land of the Five Cities.

Seeing that everyone had suppressed the previous barbarism and rudeness, and became even a little timid, Nokhan proudly raised his head and raised it even higher.

……

The temple square paved with blue bricks and white stones can accommodate more than 2,000 worshippers at the same time, and every year during the annual [Spring Great Light Festival], five towns will carry out prayer ceremonies, and the main temple is always the most spectacular, more than 8,000 residents almost knelt down on the temple square and around, chanting the name of the god of light in unison, allowing Shepard to accumulate a large amount of pure faith power.

At this time, the temple square was already overcrowded, and the soldiers of the church, the militia guards of the city, the three barons and their retinues, as well as the ministers and officials of the kingdom, were all seated in the positions divided in front of the temple, and in the center were the spokesman of the priest, the ruler of the kingdom, His Majesty the Pope of the Church of Light.

Shepard tucked into the beautifully carved armrest of the throne, his body slightly slanted, compared to the rest of the people who sat upright, but only emphasized his difference and momentum, especially with the deepening of his reign, which had made those who were not close to him in the kingdom and the church tremble nervously when they said a few words to him.

Although he is rarely seen in front of people these days, the pastors of the church and the administrators of the kingdom have spared no effort to promote the greatness of the God of Light and the holiness of the Pope, which has only made him more popular.

Looking at Nokhan and his party who were gradually walking under the escort of the Divine Guard and the Guardian Knights, Shepard smiled slightly, and said to the church treasurer Ivik sitting on the right hand side in an easy-going manner: "Avik, my trusted friend, look there, tell me, what do you see?" ”

Although Filina is the Minister of Finance, but in fact it is only in name, and the deputy named Avik is the real money bag of the Dawn Kingdom, hearing Shepard's inquiry, Avik thought for a moment and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, I have seen the changes in the Draenor Continent. ”

Shepard smiled: "Avik! I have often been inspired by your acumen, but what I have seen is not only the changes in the continent, but also the strength of the expeditionary force, and the fearlessness to spread the glory of my Lord! ”

Karen, the Minister of War, who was sturdy and bulging in the minister's costume on his body, also heard the conversation between the two, and the loyal man said in a deep voice: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, that everyone in the kingdom is willing to sacrifice everything for the glory of my lord!" ”

Shepard smiled and waved his hand, stopping the other people from also wanting to take the opportunity to show their loyalty, and said casually: "There is no doubt about your piety and loyalty, but today, we are not the protagonists. ”

During the conversation, Nockhan and his entourage had already walked not far from everyone, and the newly sealed baron, who was full of weather, said excitedly and loudly: "Your Majesty! Humble believer of our Lord, Noble Servant of Your faithful servant, Salute You! May you always be by my Lord's side! ”
