Chapter 116: A New Era
In the palace of Nexer in the Kingdom of Holm, Duke James and Duke Russell raised their heads and stepped forward: "Your Majesty, we will follow the ancient legal code, and everything will be yours." β
The bald Duke James looked at all the councillors: "Duke of Rex, Duke of York, Earl of Seapine...... The business of the church is not the business of our aristocracy. Following kingship is the foundation of our existence, you say?"
Behind him, Winston, another epic knight of the Kingdom of Holm, knelt down: "Your Majesty, I swear to the gods of hell with my soul and destiny that everything is yours. β
Behind them, more nobles knelt down: "Your Majesty, everything is up to you." β
ββββββ
Above the sky, Guan Mingyu smiled at the Pope: "Look, His Majesty, even the nobles have chosen us, why do you have to struggle?"
Benedict II's expression became more solemn and firm: "They have rebelled against the true God and will surely go to hell." James, a believer in our Lord, will never shrink back. β
"It's a big deal, after they are blessed by the Lord, I will summon the King of Angels and seven Seraphs to stay in the world!"
He raised his scepter, and at this moment, all believers and priests around the world felt it in their hearts, and they bowed down and chanted reverently: "You are one, and you are all ......."
Guan Mingyu shook his head, knowing that it was useless to say anything more. He opened his hands, and a huge starry sky magic condensed again, as if it contained the heaviest power.
Benedict II was struck by lightning, and his raised scepter froze in midair: "It's you?!"
Guan Mingyu nodded: "It's me, don't you give up?"
Benedict II's aged face revealed an irrepressible loss, as if all strength had been lost, and the scepter had almost become a crutch. He raised his head slightly: "You won." β
ββββββ
In the sky above the kingdom of the God of Ice and Snow, Salde and the other eight legends watched the magic array gradually dim, and the other six pseudo-gods walked out of the magic array and saluted: "See your lord." β
The other eight legends also came up to Salder, bowed their heads reverently and pleaded, "Please crown your lord as the patriarch, shepherd the people of the Lord." β
Salde smiled, sincere and kind: "Then I will be respectful and obedient, everyone, from this day on, I will be the patriarch of the Orthodox Church!"
Eight legends and eight pseudo-gods who had changed to the size of normal people saluted at the same time: "See His Majesty the Patriarch." β
Salde held his scepter high: "After the official ceremony, from this day on, this is the holy city of the Orthodox Church, Istanbul." You are the three cardinals of the new church, the judges, and the kings of the four kingdoms. β
He pointed to the new life incarnated by the eight false gods: "And you are the Eight Saints of the Church. β
At this moment, although the goal of sending the Pope to Heaven Hill to take charge of the Southern Church was not achieved in advance, but under his right and left, he became the patriarch of the new Orthodox Church, and the harvest far exceeded anyone's expectations. He looked at the eight kingdoms waiting for him to take over, and finally smiled triumphantly.
Secretly, he pressed what had been prepared long ago.
ββββββ
High in the sky of the Palace of Nexer, Benedict II raised his scepter high after struggling, and his voice contained reluctance and loss: "Retreat!"
Guan Mingyu also pressed the initial agreed signal.
At this time, Douglas and Brooke and the others, all the legendary mages of the Magic Council, Melmos, St. Odin and others all stopped, cautiously separated, and then gradually returned to the Pope and Guan Mingyu.
Douglas and Guan Mingyu lowered their heads slightly: "Your Majesty, thank you for your concessions." β
Benedict II glanced at the many legends of the Magic Council seriously, and nodded without emotion: "Douglas, I need to withdraw the priests from the Four Channels and the Northland Corridor. β
Douglas breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Brooke and the others: "Yes, you have three days, and we won't stop you, but if they find their own death, don't blame us." β
This is an acceptable condition, after all, the church is the biggest force, and this choice to back down does not mean that the church has lost. They also have seven Seraphs, as well as more than twenty epic knights from various countries, if they really fight to the death, even if they have five legendary peaks, the Magic Council may not be able to withstand it. This request must be agreed, and even if they end up leaving the arrangement, it will not affect the overall situation. Moreover, those people stayed in the Strait Shikoku and the Northland Corridor, and it was extremely difficult to clear them, so it was better to send them away quickly.
Benedict II nodded, looked at them deeply, and finally fixed his gaze on Guan Mingyu's face. After a smiling expression appeared on his face, he disappeared into the void at the same time as the dozen or so cardinals and holy knights who had come to help.
Douglas and others breathed a sigh of relief, and this war with the church ended in this form, which seemed to them to be the best ending. Before the initial start of the Great War, the Council of Magic was ready to fall one or two Legends. It is better to be able to peacefully receive the four countries of the Strait and the Northland Corridor than to fight to the death with the church.
Of course, they must not know that none of them died in the original book, and even because of Salde's hard resistance to a divine descent, he killed four cardinals with the eternal blazing sun, and had the absolute upper hand. But now it's pretty much the same, after Salde fled, three cardinals and a knight of the Holy Epic defected, much like in the original book. And took away the other four epic knights!And the two Holy Spirit priests, Philip and Beaver, were also blown up by the new alchemy, and the damage was not much smaller than the original book.
Salde survived, the Pope survived, and the four cardinals who were supposed to die survived! Eight legendary-level false gods were captured alive by Salde and established the Western Orthodox Church, and at this moment, the income of causal points was as high as 26,000 points, and with the accumulation in recent years, the current total number of causal points is 69,000 points.
At this moment, he laughed wildly in his heart, and this wave of causal dots was like eating honey. After having the power of god-likeness, Guan Mingyu finally has the capital to flip the table and ignore the plot. If he hadn't been able to kill Viken, he would have wanted to draw a knife now.
He didn't know that Salde had obtained Maskelin's relics, seen the monsters of the Gate World, and refined them into eight Saint Seiyas! This huge force was completely beyond Guan Mingyu's expectations, and he was originally only assisting Salde in killing this group of false gods.
Fortunately, everyone is not a good thing, and Salde has a backhand, and he has already buried a backhand.
Seeing the Pope and the others disappear, sensing the signal from Salde, he looked at all the legendary mages: "Your Excellency, Excellencies, we need to decide another matter, how to get along with Salde. β
Douglas and the others raised their heads suspiciously: "Salde? Didn't he run away?"
Guan Mingyu shook his head calmly and relaxedly: "He and eight other legends established the Western Orthodox Church, and the territory is the eight evil god kingdoms in the northwest of the Dark Mountain Range. β
Douglas and the others were dumbfounded.
ββββββ
Above the Dark Mountains, Stannis took Archduke Vaorit to jump to the palace in the primeval Dragon Danissos volcano, and just sent an invitation to Danissus when he received a message from Guan Mingyu: "The war is over." β
He was startled, and stared at each other with Danisus in confusion: "That's, that's it?"
Similar to him, there is also Rhine, who has just jumped over, his handsome and bewitching face is extremely confused, and he was originally going to pose in a pose that is frozen like a performance artist: "What are you doing, this is the end?"
ββββββ
In the Palace of Nexer, Natasha, who had just finished her impassioned speech, and the members of the noble council looked at Hathaway falling from the sky, and all the words were muffled, so quiet that they could hear Hathaway's footsteps on the ground. Aren't there a big war between the Council of Magic and the Church? Why did Hathaway, the Grand Arcanist, come back?
Hathaway turned a blind eye to what was present: "Natasha, inform all the pastors of the church and all believers to withdraw from the four countries of the strait within three days, otherwise don't go." β
Natasha's expression froze: "Mother-in-law, what is this?"
Hathaway stretched out his hand and pressed it: "We won, and Benedict II made an exchange, and within three days, all the priests and fanatics can go back, and the church has fleets waiting in various ports." β
Natasha, the head of the eighth-level heavenly knight, was like rust, and she could barely turn around: "This is winning?"
She was still thinking about it, when she saw Winston, an epic knight, turn into a streamer and rush to the stage, and slammed the hammer hard: "On behalf of the Parliament of the Kingdom of Holm, I announce that the Parliament has unanimously passed Her Majesty's proposal to expel the Southern Church and retain only the moderate sect as the state religion. β
After speaking, without waiting for anyone to react, he appeared in front of Hathaway again: "Your Excellency, congratulations. β
Hathaway was dumbfounded.
Duke Rex, the conservative chieftain, was unable to resist in this situation, so he had to kneel down and surrender to the new era. He knelt on the ground inexplicably dazed: "I was actually represented!!"
In Camelot, in Salivar in Briana, Kuks in the Kingdom of Calais, and in Kswick, the capital of the Northland Alliance, the nobles all had the same expressions when they saw Brooke, Fernando, Vicente, Oliver and others descending from the sky and hearing the voices coming from the radio.
The Magical Council won so easily?
ββββββ
In the Council Room of the Alinge Magic Tower, all the members of the Supreme Council have arrived, including Lucien, the new Grand Arcanist. Because the neutron had already been discovered by Louise, the basic framework of the new alchemy had been proven correct, and the Supreme Council had already awarded Lucien the title of Grand Arcanist.
Douglas smiled: "In this war, Salde took away all the cardinals for us, which is equivalent to us occupying a geographical advantage, so even if the church comes to help, we will press the church from beginning to end." Thank you for your efforts, and from today onwards, we have truly ruled the Four Strait Countries and the Northland Alliance. β
Fernando, as always, turned on the taunt: "Okay, Douglas, what we are going to discuss now is how to deal with the Orthodox Church of Salde, and these clichΓ©s need not be said. β
Guan Mingyu then spoke: "Your Excellency, the Orthodox Church established by Salde will not require faith in the Lord, everyone can believe in the Lord, only the peace of mind is required, and at the same time, it is willing to start a war with our Magic Council for the study of the arcane." β
Douglas and the others smiled: "If this is the case, then they are also similar to the program of the moderate sects, and I am in favor of working with them." What about you?"
Brooke also nodded: "Yes, this kind of similar program is similar to Richard, we can tolerate Richard, and we can tolerate him." What's more, with the population of the eight Western countries, our development will be more rapid. β
Fernando didn't let it go: "It's the four Western countries now." β
Douglas stopped a few people: "Okay, if you agree to join forces with the four Western countries, please raise your hand." β
So everyone raised their hands.
It's just that Guan Mingyu felt like someone was poking with an awl: "What the hell, how did Salde get the angel refining method?"
"Labor and management guessed the beginning, but not the end. β
