Chapter 16: The Scepter and the Crown

Soon the unusually heavy hammer caught the attention of everyone in the auditorium.

Many people who thought they were strong enough tried to pick up the hammer, but they all failed.

They couldn't lift the small-looking hammer off the table, with all their might.

This unconscionable scene made everyone wonder if the hammer was connected to the table at all.

Merlin Prophet asked craftsmen to create such a table with a hammer just to make a joke with everyone.

Just when everyone was talking, Li Yu, another protagonist of this coronation ceremony, finally walked into the auditorium.

He was still wearing the same black suit he had always wore, but with an extra scepter in his hand.

It was a black scepter, 106cm long, and in order to facilitate the inheritance, Li Yu chose steel and weighed 2.4kg.

There are seven gem slots on the scepter, indicating a seven-day week, but only the last two slots are inlaid with crystals, meaning that these two days are sacrosanct.

At the same time, the lower part of the scepter is also equipped with a rifle stock, which can also be used as a flintlock pistol for gunpowder in times of crisis.

The symbolism of this design is far more important than the actual effect, and the reason why Li Yu created the scepter in this way is to remind his successor that he must have the courage and determination to defend the doctrine by force at all times.

And Li Yu was followed by Clara, and the little maid was now the chief secretary of the Shuangxiu Sect.

On weekdays, she is mainly responsible for recording Li Yu's words and deeds, and doing some teaching and translation work, as one of the few people who can be proficient in the divine language, she has won the respect of all believers.

At the same time, she is also the teacher of almost all the traversers, and she also has a high prestige on the side of the traversers.

And today, she put away her usual lazy appearance, and walked behind Li Yu with a serious expression, holding a silver plate in both hands, in which a crown was placed.

Unlike the simple stainless steel scepter in Li Yu's hand, this crown was very dazzling and dazzling, and it was inlaid with gems, including nine gems the size of a quail egg, representing the royal realm of the Brattis continent and the eight dukedoms.

And on top of the nine gemstones, there are six diamonds that symbolize Saturday.

In addition to this, the crown is also engraved with the rabbit coat of arms of the Arias family, which is surrounded by jadeite, which looks even more luxurious than the lion crown of the Vespasian family.

At the same time, because of the unique cutting technique from another plane, this crown is particularly dazzling in the sun.

The gems radiated a luster that nearly blinded those who stared at it.

The big guy's gaze shifted from the hammer to the crown, and at the same time he quickly estimated its value in his heart.

As a result, even Angela, the head of the Emmanuel family, who is known as the richest man in the West, couldn't help but smack her tongue.

The nine great gems alone are almost priceless, and there is no jewel in the entire continent that can match their purity, color, and size.

However, it didn't cost much for Li Yu to buy them on another plane, and this artificial gem itself was very cheap.

This crown costs less than 10,000 yuan, which is not as expensive as a larger natural diamond ring, but in Bratis, it is the most expensive and beautiful crown.

Everyone who saw it for the first time couldn't help but hold their breath, and the auditorium fell silent.

Li Yu walked along the red carpet to the iron table in the center of the auditorium.

He put down his cane, looked around, and then stopped talking nonsense and went straight to the point.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our lord sent a divine punishment on Saturday to help us defeat the invincible Wings, save the West, and save the people of this land from slavery."

As soon as his words fell, all the nobles of the Western Realm spoke one after another, loudly praising Saturday.

"Yes, my lord not only killed those Winged people with divine punishment, but also taught us new ways of farming, gave us new farming tools, and gave us a good harvest this year, it is the most powerful god I have ever seen."

"May all glory and glory be on Saturday!"

"With its protection, we don't have to worry about being invaded by the enemy again!"

"Prophet Merlin, the miraculous medicine you gave me last month saved my little son!"

“…………”

The crowd chattered and gossiped mostly in praise of Saturday and Li Yu, although some nobles had complained to Ilea that the two-day rest was too lenient, even the rest of the serfs.

But it is undeniable that even though the Western Frontier began to implement a large number of weekends this year, what the nobles were worried about did not happen, and the income of the big guys was much higher than in previous years.

This also made the nobles less resistant to the precepts of the double rest, and gradually got used to the two days off a week.

Li Yu waited until everyone's voices were a little quieter before continuing, "Although peace has been restored to the western realm, my lord noticed on Saturday that there are still many people in other places who are struggling in suffering.

"They are not yet believers in our Lord, but in the future, they will surely become our companions and join us in building the kingdom of God on land.

"So on Saturday a new oracle was sent asking us to end the fighting and strife on the continent as soon as possible and save the innocent civilians."

There was a buzz in the auditorium again, even though the guests knew before they arrived that this would be Ilea's coronation.

But after hearing Li Yu's words, he couldn't help but turn his head and ears.

The Western Frontier has always admired martial arts, and war has always been one of the ways for nobles to make a quick fortune, although Li Yu will protect future potential believers on subsequent expeditions, and there is a high probability that they will not be allowed to plunder everywhere.

But the Shuangxiu Sect has also released rumors that it will give rich rewards to the army that is brave in battle and disciplined, and it is also a reward for everyone from the nobles who lead the troops to the warriors below.

In addition, the big guy will be favored by Saturday in the future and become a god.

Although the latter is just a big pie painted by Li Yu, it is still quite attractive to the nobles, after all, the strength of Saturday is already obvious to all, and being favored by it is also a dream of many people.

But it's still the same old problem, although Elia's reputation has risen to a new level after the defeat of Solomon, and now everyone in the empire knows about it.

But her background is still a little worse after all, not as good as the other three competitors, and the three over there have already carved up the mainland, so it seems too late to join at this time.

Don't eat the meat and the soup when the time comes, and offend the emperor of the future empire, the big guy's situation will be embarrassing.
