Chapter 45: Disciples of the God of War
"The name of this flower...... It's called Yongzhi Flower ......"
The female swordsman plucked a small white flower with a very simple appearance from the dirt bag under her feet, and said with a detached gaze: "This kind of flower will only grow on the tomb of the ancestor king of the Luo Han Kingdom...... A prophet once said that these eternal flowers are the embodiment of the spirits of the kings, and they will always guard this castle, this country......"
Rilin and the others were now standing in front of the main gate of Idoras Castle, the capital of Rohan, and at the entrance of the wooden gate, more than four meters high, stood a few lazy guards, who were looking at these strange visitors with a little curiosity and a little numbness.
Instead of paying attention to the sluggish soldiers, Lilin focused on the dirt bags next to the castle gates...... No, it's not a dirt bag, these steamed buns covered with white flowers, as Catherine just said, are all graves.
Such a shabby tomb is the tomb of the previous kings of the Rohan Kingdom.
Only those British kings who have worked for the country and made tangible contributions, or sacrificed their lives for the country, are eligible to be buried in front of the main entrance of Idoras Castle, and the tomb is only a steamed bun-shaped mound three or four meters square, and the burial goods are only the armor and weapons worn by these kings during their lifetimes......
The Land of Hussars...... Rohan ......
It does not have a vast and rich land, a large number of citizens, or even a decent capital, but it has been able to stand tall for thousands of years on the war-torn continent of Middle-earth, firmly occupying the position of the second largest military power on the continent, and even the demon lord Sauron has his own reason for existence.
Li Lin looked around and counted the tombs of these kings covered with white flowers, there were thirty-three in total, and Li Lin, who was familiar with "corpse qi", could clearly feel that in each tomb, there was a powerful heroic spirit sleeping.
Thirty-three Protector Spirits.
"Stop! This is the residence of Idoras, King Heudon of Rohan, strangers, tell us who you are, where you come from, and what you are for, or you will not be allowed to enter the city! ”
Although due to the jiān phase of Grema? The goods of clever words, the guards at the gate of the royal capital looked sluggish and listless, but after all, their quality was still there, and they still dutifully stopped the Lilin group who wanted to enter the city, it is worth mentioning that the two very conspicuous Ente shepherds have already cast the "life camouflage magic", and after the two people "merged", they disguised themselves as a large travel carriage that could accommodate several people in the car.
"I am a servant of the god of war, and I am here to spread the faith of Kratos, the god of war, and guide you through the difficult times and defeat all enemies."
With a bold smile on his face, Lilin looked at the soldier and said loudly. He was now wearing a coarse cloth robe of pure black sè, which honestly didn't match his current muscular giant-like appearance, but since he claimed to be a servant of Kratos, the god of war, it wasn't surprising that he was rough and heroic.
"Another missionary ......" The guards looked at each other, scornful smiles on their lips.
Now in troubled times, and with the threat of the Dark Lord looming, life is in danger.
The people who are always in fear and uneasiness in their hearts are in great need of a spiritual sustenance, an existence to rely on, so the current Middle-earth is the best cradle for religion. Almost every day, several new religions emerge on Middle-earth, and in a short period of time, they absorb a large number of refugees as followers, and develop rapidly. ..., but now there is no situation in the Middle-earth continent where hundreds of "religions" are blooming together, and the reason is very simple, that is, these new religions will only be short-lived, either destroyed by the dark forces of the demon lord Sauron, or exterminated by those righteous rangers with unique skills...... This is also a matter of no choice, after all, this is a world where the strong are respected, if there is no strong personal strength, there is no qualification to establish their own power at all, and when it comes to the strong, which one will be the Demon Lord Sauron, the Ring Knight, the white-robed wizard Saruman, the gray-robed wizard Gandalf, and the northern ranger Aragorn...... Which cult leader would be the opponent of these top strongmen, when the noble image they painstakingly built up in front of the believers was torn to pieces by these strongmen, even if the cultists were blind, they would know that the gods they believed in now would not be able to bless them at all. Naturally, the new religions will disappear on their own.
But even so, new religions emerge every day, like weeds that can't be burned by wildfires.
And the tall man in front of him, who calls himself "the disciple of Kratos, the god of war", is obviously the spokesperson of a new religion. In this regard, these gatekeepers did not find it any unusual, but they were just liars.
"It's very easy to proselytize in this country, just go to Grema ? Just 'register' with Master Qiaoyan...... Well, about 500~1000 gold coins, depending on the mood and appetite of Lord Qiaoyan at the moment. As long as you can afford it, you can develop followers at will. ”
The soldier pointed to the Medushijin Temple, located on the top of the hill behind him, and said to Ririn, where the royal family and the important ministers of the state were located.
Even ignorant children in the kingdom now know that as long as they can afford to pay the gold coins, then the current prime minister, Lord Grema? Clever words, you can make any of your wishes come true. It seems that he is about to make a small windfall again.
Lilin nodded, with a bold smile on his face, and said to the soldier who had no intention of stopping him: "You are a brave warrior, because you are full of traces left by the war, so you will be favored by the god of war, no matter what you think now, how much you doubt me and the god of war I worship, but I can guarantee that it will not be long before you will completely fall under the glory of Kratos, the god of war, and become his most faithful believer, and now, I can give you the glory of the god of war in advance......"
As soon as he finished speaking, with the swing of Rilin's arm, a large ball of improved holy fire had covered the soldier's body, making him a "fire man" in an instant.
"Enemy attack! Call the police! Someone attacked the guards at the gate! ”
Seeing what happened to their companions, the other soldiers' faces changed drastically, and they surrounded them while shouting. However, since Rilin was a dark wizard who knew "magic", these soldiers only surrounded him, but did not dare to attack easily.
But Lilin looked like an old god, clasped his hands, looked at Bai Sè "Fire Man" with a smile, and didn't say a word from beginning to end. And the female swordsman Catherine stood behind Rilin, although she held the hilt of the sword, she had no intention of fighting.
“…… Wait, wait, don't do it yet, I'm ...... I don't seem to be hurt! ”
The man who was "consumed" by the flames suddenly waved his hand and spoke, but he himself was a little at a loss. Fortunately, the fire of holiness extinguished itself after it had consumed all impurity. And the person who appeared in the fire shocked everyone.
The person is still the same person, but he is shining all over his body at this time, the rusty and shabby armor and the clothes worn by the man have become spotless at this time, and the armor and weapons are shining, like an artifact. As for the soldier himself...... You know, Idoras Castle is a relatively scarce place, in addition to the daily drinking water for people and animals, the water source that can be used for cleaning is very scarce, so people here, especially men, especially those in the lower classes, do not take a bath once in a few months, that is, if they wash by chance, it is just a little water, wet the towel to wipe the body. …,
But the man in front of him who was reborn from the fire was as clean as a newborn baby, and even the purest elf must be nothing more than that.
Of course, this is nothing compared to some other things that happen to men......
"Old John, you, your eyes! Wasn't he hit by the half-orc's war hammer and couldn't open it for a long time? But, but now, not only can you open that eye, but your eyes are also very bright, difficult, isn't ......?"
"No, that's right, my eyes, my eyes have regained their brightness, no, not only the eyes, but also my tui, I used to be a little sore, I didn't need to use a lot of strength, but now, I can run all day in a row~~~!"
With an unprecedented zeal, the veteran named John laughed with tears on his face. Suddenly, he drew his sword from his waist and began to slash through the air frantically, as if all around his body were a large group of orcs.
"Not only that, but I'm full of strength now, and my mind is full of memories of frantically slashing damn orcs, those are all warriors' memories, and I'm completely confident that I can kill ten orc soldiers in a row by myself......"
……
When a large group of veterans covered in the tragic scars of the war surrounded Lilin, and looked at Lilin with hope and expectation in their eyes, and looked at Lilin with trepidation, Lilin knew clearly that his first plan had been perfectly achieved......
