Chapter 412: The new emperor used to be his miscellaneous servant
Today is definitely not a good day for the residents of the Star Imperial Capital, the old emperor died, the empire and the church officially went to war, and with those big battles with the believers and Eliza, the imperial capital of the Star Empire was destroyed by nearly half, and the most prestigious King's Avenue in the imperial capital has now become a ruin, and the houses and shops along the road have been reduced to ashes, which is enough to see how fierce this battle is, and enough to see how murderous Eliza and the church believers will become after showing their fangs.
Of course, most people automatically ignore that most of these major damages were caused by Ye Chui......
Some of the hidden informants quickly used their fastest and fastest channels to begin to relay what was happening here, and bards and singers began to write lyrics to describe what was bound to be an epoch-making event.
More of the inhabitants returned to their dwellings after the battle was over, only to see that everything was ruined, sad and angry, and then vented to the Holy See, they would not think about whether there was any conspiracy in this matter, whether it was initiated by the Empire, because the old emperor died, and the old emperor was already dead before the battle began, and the imperial capital had caused such terrible destruction, then it was useless to talk about anything else.
It's all the Holy See's fault!
The anger of the people of the Star Empire has never been as fierce as it is now, and even the angry people spontaneously organized themselves and rushed into the church, frantically destroying everything inside.
In this world without science, people need faith, and the church has been making the people of the Star Empire submit to their beliefs, but what the emperor has been doing is to resist this faith, just like the life that Ye Chui has traveled through, Buddhism and Taoism have flourished, but under the attitude of the country, leaders and leaders who deny the faith, the people will also be deeply affected.
Dealing with the problem of faith, the Star Empire is more like China before Ye Chui traveled, although Buddhism and Taoism existed, but the believers were scarce, some people had ambiguous attitudes, and temples had long been reduced to money tools.
And when these precarious beliefs do something infuriating, they can be destroyed at any time.
The half-life career of the old emperor and Prince Geller has finally begun to come true today, and because of Ye Chui's troubles, the effect is far better than imagined......
......
The old emperor sat on top of a tall tower, overlooking the embarrassing scene of the imperial capital, with a little relief on his face, but more distressed: in some ways, the old emperor, who regarded the empire as his own flesh and blood, chose to sacrifice himself to provoke the anger of the people, but he would never have thought of causing such tragic damage to the imperial capital...... Ye Chui may or may not be intentional, he has made the war between the empire and the church, adding a more justified bargaining chip.
"There weren't many casualties, the leaf was well controlled, most of the population was displaced, and the situation is the best for us. An old man suddenly appeared beside the old emperor and whispered.
This old man was not a magister, although he had a long sword hanging diagonally from his waist, his body was thin and withered, and his appearance was really not commensurate with that of a swordsman, but he had just suddenly appeared by the old emperor's side.
There was a bit of excitement on his somewhat thin face, the old emperor who had already decided to die, now that he was alive, he had to feel happy and joyful.
This old man is unknown, he is an old attendant next to the old emperor, Ye Chui and others have also seen him, but they have never paid attention to him, but in fact he is one of the hole cards around the old emperor who is not even clear to the church.
Hidden under the thin body is a strong man with the power of a half-step Sword Master.
If it weren't for the restrictions of the Castro Continent's rules, he might have already taken that step and become a true sword master.
When Eliza and Ye Trai fought before, he had been hiding in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity, but he had no chance to make a move after all, although he could judge that Ye Chui's strength and realm were still a certain gap from Eliza, even if he really wanted to kill Ye Chui, he would have a great chance, but Eliza was finally killed by Ye Chui like that.
This made him realize that sometimes strength does not only depend on realm power...... Thinking is also very important.
"Then let's follow the plan, and start to clear out the forces that the Church is hiding in the Empire, and the National Guard on the border must always defend against the Church's counterattack!" the old emperor continued.
He and Prince Geller asked Ye Trai to pretend to be illegitimate children, the purpose was to lure out those hidden forces of the church, that operation, although those forces did not all hear the wind, but they had already revealed some clues and horses, and then after Prince Geller's already prepared deployment operation, it was enough to completely eliminate them.
"And then I'm a veritable dead man. The old emperor continued.
"Your Majesty, the Empire still needs you, and you can manipulate everything in the dark. The mysterious attendant whispered.
"Jacob will be a worthy emperor, the war with the church may go on for a long time, I have everything in order, maybe I should have a good rest in the future. The old emperor said with a smile.
Then he beckoned to the mysterious attendant: "...... Come and help me, my legs are still weak and I can't stand up...... Ye Chui is so hateful, I let me play skydiving when I am old, and it almost scared my heart to stop beating!"
......
Debbie and the others have just landed safely, except for the old emperor, who is a little weak, everyone else said that it is very exciting, and they can come a few more times in the future, and now they have gathered together, Ye Chui confirmed that his companions are safe and sound, and his heart is comforted, and then he showed a sad expression, and began to express heavy sadness for the death of the old emperor......
And all the people mourned.
The old and frail bachelor knelt down in front of Jacob with the support of his apprentice: "Your Majesty Jacob I!"
——The university scholar is worthy of being an old fritter who has been in the political hierarchy for decades and is still standing, although he is old, his mind is still sharp.
Seeing him take the lead, the others fell to their knees one after another, including Prince Geller and Shéral, and cheered loudly: "Your Majesty the Emperor!" "Your Majesty Jacob I!"
Among the crowd, Ye Chui was the only one who stood still.
Although Jacob was the emperor, he also started as a miscellaneous servant in his guild, and he felt that he had the dignity to kneel as the guild leader......
Jacob naturally did not force Ye Chui to kneel, he noticed that several guards showed displeasure to Ye Chui, and hurriedly walked to Ye Chui and grabbed Ye Chui's hand, signaling the particularity of Ye Chui's identity.
And his actions made Ye Chui's identity and status instantly improve several heights.
......
The battle with Eliza took place in the afternoon, and when Prince Geller ordered the temporary resettlement of the inhabitants of the destroyed houses affected by the fighting, it was already night, and the believers in the church stopped a wave of counterattack, but they were easily wiped out by the Black Armor, and the magnificent church was quickly occupied by the Black Armor.
There are also some believers who have fled, they have instigated the believers to riot, and the view has taken the opportunity to slip away, although the Star Empire has an ambiguous attitude towards the church, but there will still be some people in every country who are convinced of the belief in the gods, their eyes have long been blinded by the faith of the church, but such people are only a few after all, under the orderly plan of Prince Geller, these believers were quickly captured and put in the prison of the empire, ready to interrogate them.
The proclamation of the expulsion of the churches in the major cities soon spread, and everyone in the empire was immersed in the grief of the death of the old emperor, the panic of breaking with the papacy and going to war, and the hope of a new emperor ascending the throne.
Of course, there were even more people who rejoiced because of Ye Hang - this man killed a cardinal archbishop!
The enthronement ceremony of the new emperor will be held in the near future, but in the evening, a simple banquet is still held in the palace, and the guild leaders and mercenary group leaders who participate in the battle are also invited, and the protagonist of the banquet is obviously Ye Chui.
This young man, even if he stands by the side of the new emperor at this time, he will never cover up even the slightest bit of his greatness, because everyone remembers that the new emperor used to be his miscellaneous servant, and even if the new emperor Jacob has initially shown a bit of majesty in the face of those ministers and strong men, he is still very flattering and humble by Ye Chui's side.
Even if Ye Chui does not have any titles or official titles now, he is still above 10,000 people under one person in his empire.
"Mr. Ye Chui ......" The body was trembling constantly, as if he might faint at any time, and took advantage of the fact that Ye Chui had just finished talking with several guild leaders, and walked over with the support of the apprentice.
"Mr. Paishir, do you have anything to do?" Ye Chui didn't have much admiration for the old man's identity, just a trace of respect for the old man.
"Mr. Ye Chui, it has been more than 5,000 years since the fall of the gods, and the mortal empire has been handed over endlessly, and I can find a very clear truth in the history books...... An empire cannot be without faith. He said to Ye Chui.
"What do you mean by that?" Hearing the scholar's words, Ye lowered his brows and couldn't help frowning.
"No, no......" Seeing Ye Chui's appearance, Paishir hurriedly waved his hands and said a little nervously, "You misunderstood me, the Holy See must be punished, their beliefs are heresies and must be eliminated, I am by no means trying to appease their sins!" he said this, declaring his position, and then continued, "However...... Although we do not believe in the Holy See, we can create a new Church, and the royal power of the empire does not interfere with the belief in the gods, the rule of the empire can bind the people physically, and faith can bind them spiritually. ”
After a pause, there was a gleam in the old cloudy eyes of the university: "I have read some ancient documents, and the gods of the gods did this back then...... He planted his own church before he rose to prominence. ”
The words of the scholar made Ye Chui slightly stunned, and he glanced at the old man in some surprise.
He was a little surprised, because he had been careful to hide his relationship with the gods, and had never admitted that he was actually favored by the gods, but the scholar seemed to clearly see his connection to the gods.
And his proposal surprised Ye Zhuo even more.
Start your own church, get people to believe in yourself, and that's what your predecessor did!
Speaking of which, Lesa got the Bible of believing in the goddess, and the object of the Bible is the god of the gods, but believing in this kind of thing, caring about the heart, is a wonderful spiritual power, if you learn the way to gather the power of faith, let the power of faith merge into his body, and establish his own sect, then he may really be able to obtain stronger power than ordinary magisters and swordsmen......
This is the path to godhood!
The idea is tempting.
In the following time, Ye Chui has been thinking about the words of the scholar, he is going to find an opportunity to talk to Lesa and Cillus, how feasible is it to establish his own church, to be believed, how to collect these faith powers, the gods have eternal life and wonderful rule power, is it because of the blessing of the power of faith that they became gods?
However, when Ye Trai was pondering, he always felt as if he had forgotten something......
It wasn't until he returned to the castle and saw Celti that he suddenly realized-
"Hey!" Celti said to Leaf, "what are you going to do with that mentally retarded goddess named Akuya?" she is still locked up in the Necromantic Realm, hiding in a cave shivering, and has been crying and fainting several times...... I can't stand it anymore, I just sent her some food and bedding or something......"
Leaf hanging: "Lying in the groove ......"
