Chapter 1293: Human Comedy (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"In the name of the Demon God, I canonize Carter and De Rossi as the Emperor of the De Rossi Empire. ”
With those powerful words, the High Priest held a large and ornate crown in both hands and slowly fastened it on the top of De Rossi's head.
Seeing this scene, the Leiria nobles in the main hall ...... Well, the nobles of the De Rossi Empire who should be called De Rossi couldn't help but have a strange feeling welling up in their hearts.
Although they all lived a ridiculous life of indulgence and drunkenness, this was the first time they had seen such a situation.
What does this mean by high priest?
He thinks of himself as the Pope?
This is simply ridiculous~!
In the human continent, the emphasis is on the 'divine right of kings'.
The people's identification and submission to the king came first and foremost from the fear of God.
Only Chapter 1293 Human Comedy (Asking for a Monthly Pass) His Majesty the Pope, the spokesman of the God of Light in the world, has the qualifications to be crowned king in place of God.
It is only when the king wears the crown with the Pope's own hands that he can be regarded as recognized by God and have sacred and inviolable rights.
This is the cornerstone of the rule of all feudal social regimes on the mainland.
Those who have not been crowned kings by the Pope's own hands will naturally be questioned about the sanctity of power.
Don't underestimate this difference, in this continent where all the people are staunch believers in the God of Light, the power that is not sacred enough feels like a copycat piracy, discounting its legitimacy.
When it comes to saying that a certain king is not recognized by God, it seems reasonable for the common people to overthrow him.
Of course, after a long thousand years, the kings and emperors on the continent no longer pay much attention to this, and everyone knows that the key to keeping the position under their ass is to be fast and fast.
But the Holy See has ruled on the continent for thousands of years, and the coronation of the Pope has become a tradition.
As long as he is the king of a large country, when he ascends the throne, he must be crowned by the Pope himself.
And the king of a small country could not afford to pay the appearance fee of His Majesty the Pope. Chapter 1293 The Human Comedy (Asking for a Monthly Pass) But it also has to be affirmed and authorized in writing by His Majesty the Pope.
Take, for example, Napoleon I.
Brother Na was born in the grass, started in the army, and dominated the world, which can be described as a hero. The kings of all countries hated it to the core. I can't drink its blood, eat its flesh, tear off its bones, and sleep its skin.
However, because Nago was once crowned by the Pope and had a holy aura on his body, although Nago was defeated twice, the kings still did not dare to kill the slightest bit, and in the end it could only be a despicable act. Assassination poisoning. to cover the mouth of the world.
As the liturgical music played, the people in the main hall who had just become the nobles of the De Rossi Empire all changed their faces, and they secretly wondered in their hearts: Could it be that the high priest wants to become the pope of this world?
This is to establish a new order on the human continent...... Have the undead changed their temperament and no longer take pleasure in killing and poking?
But then he peeked around, and the lichs and the undead who were hiding in the darkness all had bloodthirsty and cruel lights in their eyes, which made people shudder.
All of a sudden. They couldn't figure out what the high priest was trying to do. Or want to show something to the world.
On the contrary, the Semitic people on the other side reacted indifferently.
This can only be blamed on the fact that humans know too little about Semitic and the undead, and the position of the high priest in Semit. In fact, it is equivalent to a mentor, and it is a mentor with real power.
This official is really lacking, and he is much bigger than the Pope.
In the eyes of the Semitic people, the high priest just moved the Semitic set directly to the human continent.
The Semites were concerned with another issue, the so-called Emperor De Rossi.
The Semitic generals looked coldly at the newly enthroned Emperor De Rossi with unfriendly eyes, and then looked at each other again, with dissatisfaction and contempt in each other's eyes.
They all scolded angrily in their hearts: "What bullshit emperor, what does this mean?
He***. How can there be such a truth in the world. Is the high priest old and confused?
If it goes on like this, what are you fighting for~!
Wash up and go home and sleep while it's early. ”
These Semitic soldiers, leaving behind their fathers and children, traveled thousands of miles through the dangerous Sea of Death, and braved the danger of storms and shipwrecks, and on the way, they died almost a million times from shipwrecks and diseases.
Everyone is trying their best to go to the human continent. What is the plan to fight against the human army?
It's not about grabbing money, things, land, and women.
They dragged the coalition of 200,000 human peacekeepers for a month, risked their lives to defend the tiny city of Ryder, and fought for 200,000 non-stop attacks with the peacekeepers, with more than half of the casualties.
It's not just for the reward of land and official positions.
Now the high priest has given all the territory they have fought hard to a human in a word, and he is still a sissy little white face who can only pat on the back and become a weapon.
"Emperor, whose emperor is he? Our great Semitic tribe has no emperor~!" The generals' faces were all extremely ugly, which made them how could these generals not be annoyed in their hearts.
Especially when they saw De Rossi's triumphant appearance, the generals secretly gritted their teeth with hatred, and their hands couldn't help but clench the hilt of their swords.
Even many people are secretly thinking in their hearts: whether to carry forward the fine traditions of the Semitic people, secretly shoot this emperor to death, and then everyone ...... together However, in front of the high priest, they only dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, if it was the prime minister who dared to do this, these sons of bitch would have fried the pot a long time ago.
The high priest looked at De Rossi with the crown on his head with satisfaction, the establishment of this De Rossi Empire was an important step in his plan, and it was related to the future war policy.
Now this goal has been achieved.
Clever and clever, the faithful and obedient De Rossi was also very pleasing to the high priest.
The high priest stretched out his hands and lifted De Rossi, who had just been promoted to emperor, from the ground, and said with a sincere expression, "May His Majesty De Rossi work hard to create a more glorious and happy future for the two races." ”
Emperor De Rossi had a touched expression on his face, he held the high priest's hand tightly, and said in a trembling voice: "I will follow your teachings, Lord High Priest, and take your will as my goal, and be your most faithful servant. ”
"Hereby, I declare. Emperor De Rossi turned to face the nobles in the main hall, and said excitedly: "We, the De Rossi Empire, will be allowed to worship the demon god as our only god. The High Priest is our loving Father and our eternal Guide. ”
Before De Rossi could speak, the nobles under the steps were in an uproar.
This is so unexpected~!
Emperor De Rossi was going to change the state religion and place them under the rule of the high priests and the undead.
Although I have long guessed about these in my heart. But when De Rossi really announced it, the nobles' hearts were still shocked like a landslide.
Although in a practical sense, the nobles and officials were atheists and never wanted to pay a dime more to the Holy See, according to the teachings of the Holy See of Light, they should have gone to hell long ago.
But faith in the god of light had become ingrained in their hearts, and Emperor De Rossi was going to force everyone to change their faith. It is undoubtedly a great disapproval of the world.
It is certain that those ordinary people who have been brainwashed by the temple for decades must be unwilling.
"False God~!" came out of the crowd with a loud shout.
The surrounding nobles couldn't help but be shocked, as if they had encountered a ghost, they hurriedly jumped around, hiding far away, leaving an old man with white hair in the middle.
Although the old man's face was full of wrinkles, he stood straight at this time.
He held his head high proudly and looked coldly at Emperor De Rossi and the High Priest. The loud voice scolded loudly: "The monsters of the dark abyss dare to usurp the title of god, and the fire of the god of light will surely consume your souls." ”
De Rossi's face instantly turned extremely ugly. Gritting his teeth, he stared at the old man angrily, with a fierce look in his eyes.
There was an unceremonious burst of laughter among the Semitic generals, and a voice in the crowd mocked and mocked, "God of Light?
It just so happens that we're looking for him, and we don't know where he is now?"
The unbridled ridicule of the Semitic people embarrassed the nobles present, and they did not have the courage to refute each other, so they could only helplessly lower their heads and stare at the floor.
The old man raised his head slightly and glanced at the Semitic people proudly, and said loudly: "The will of the God of Light is among us, and it is the oracle of the Most High Seat. It is also the sword of the Holy Blessed Knight, the Count of Lorraine......"
Emperor De Rossi pointed at him angrily, and shouted angrily: "Pull him out and slaughter him, slaughter him~!"
Several palace guards immediately rushed forward, grabbed the old man on the left and right, stopped him from continuing to speak, and dragged him out by holding him down.
There are even people who ignore the old age. Reaching out and squeezing the old man's throat hard, he didn't let him speak.
The surrounding human nobles turned pale with fright, hiding away from them, looking at the changes in the hall with empty eyes.
"I don't have to bother you, I'll go myself. The old man struggled vigorously, broke free from the palace attendants, looked at them with contempt, and said, "De Rossi, bury me at the gate of the city, and I will see with my own eyes how you, and your cowardly servants, perish." ”
De Rossi picked the corners of his mouth, sneered, and said, "As you wish." In the future, I will bury you in front of the Vatino. ”
"Hahahaha~!" the old man burst out laughing, glanced at the high priest and the Semitic people, and laughed at them, "There is no such day, in fact, you all know it in your hearts. ”
After speaking, he turned around and walked outside the main hall without hesitation.
Everywhere he went, the nobles hurriedly avoided the sides, bowing their heads and not daring to look at him.
"Your family's name will be engraved on the pillar of shame forever. The old man looked at them contemptuously and let out a prophecy that made the nobles tremble.
The palace guard blushed, drew his long sword, pushed the old man's back, and escorted the old man outside.
When the guards escorted the old man and disappeared outside the door, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The old man's fearless behavior reflected the shamelessness and cowardice of the people, which made them feel ashamed and at the same time produce a strange resentment and resentment.
Because of the dark psychology, only by trampling the 'noble' under their feet will they continue to be anesthetized, and there is reason to continue to survive like ostriches.
The High Priest's face was flat, and he couldn't see what it was, but he didn't smile anymore.
The Semitic generals and dark mages looked at each other, feeling as greasy as eating flies, and the name Lorraine was too harsh.
It's like a thorn stuck in their throats, uncomfortable, but they can't spit out and swallow.
The name hovers over the Semitic people's heads like a spell, and whenever they think of it, they feel a sudden void in their hearts. Subconsciously look out the window, like the next moment. That person will leap out of the darkness like a tiger and choose people to eat.
The Semitic generals were asking themselves the question: If I played against Lorraine, would I be able to win?
The answer after asking yourself is never optimistic.
The eyes of the Semitic generals couldn't help but glance at Haddou behind the high priest, about his identity. There is also some rumor among the Semitic people.
The first general of the human race, the big bull who almost dug up the nest of the Ruman Empire. The Semitic generals asked themselves if they couldn't do Haddou's record under the same conditions?
But he is such a powerful character, in the territory that he has been operating for decades, he was beaten by Lorraine, and he was completely defeated without even a chance.
"What is Lorraine doing now?" someone couldn't help but whisper.
"Recently, I'm still picking up girls at home on the other side of the mainland. Someone sneered and whispered.
There was a sigh of relieved chuckle from among the Semitic generals. They've got their footing, Lorraine hasn't reacted yet, and that's good, very good.
If that goods are too promiscuous, they die of kidney deficiency. That couldn't be better.
The High Priest glanced at the generals dissatisfied, with a slight annoyance in his eyes.
The name Lorraine was also taboo in front of him, and the High Priest was the last thing he wanted to hear.
Haddou chuckled at the end of the crowd like a bystander. muttered in a low voice: "Human comedy ......"
De Rossi gritted his teeth with hatred, he had also eaten under Lord Luo's hands, and now he remembered it. It's still a heartache. But then, in an instant, he changed his humble smile, turned to face the high priest, and said, "Some people are always too stupid to recognize reality, I hope this has not affected your mood high priest." ”
The high priest patted De Rossi on the shoulder kindly and said with a smile: "Of course not, I believe that soon, the mainland will understand us and believe in us." ”
De Rossi breathed a sigh of relief. He bowed deeply, then turned to face the gray-faced nobles.
Looking at their expressions like dead fathers and mothers, De Rossi secretly cursed in his heart, and the good atmosphere was all mixed up by the old guy.
However, he could not do without the support of these nobles, and in the future system dominated by the high priests and Semites, he, the emperor, could still rely on these younger brothers in front of him.
"To celebrate the founding of the Empire and the care shown to us by His Excellency the High Priest. I, Emperor De Rossi, solemnly announce to you. De Rossi applied with a stern face, and said: "All the people here today will be crowned with a first-class title, and the fief will be doubled.
Those who do not have a knighthood will be given the title of hereditary dark lord. Rejoice, this is the grace given to us by the High Priest. ”
"This is also good news", the human nobles present said secretly in their hearts, but what is this Dark Lord?
"Equivalent to a baron," someone muttered quietly.
"That's not bad......
De Rossi's cronies were the first to cheer loudly with excitement, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the vassals were the tradition. And the richest reward is naturally their cronies.
Suddenly becoming nobles, they raised their arms and shouted excitedly: "Long live the high priest~!"
"Long live Emperor De Rossi~!"
Regardless of whether they were willing or not, others also cheered loudly, the title was increased by one rank, and the fief was doubled, which was a real benefit, and many people were already moved.
Whoever is the boss is not the boss, they don't care about this if they can get the benefits, as for the future, let's talk about it later~!
Maybe the undead clan is a great man and really won the world, and they are still the founding heroes.
"Long live the High Priest, Long live His Majesty De Rossi~!"
The atmosphere in the main hall suddenly became warm again.
Looking at the eager cries and joyful expressions of those below, the high priest finally showed another smile, which showed that his plan was working.
Give the nobles of the human race, as long as they are willing to surrender and be loyal to his high priesthood, give them the rank of knight.
It's like in Semite, cultivating a group of nobles who obey their orders and weakening human resistance. Fight against humans with humans.
With the high priest's understanding of human nature, there will be people who will come to them for profit.
Emperor Derossi carried the high priest to the dazzling throne at the top, then bowed down to the high priest and sat down on the chair at the bottom of the steps, which was his throne, and the top belonged to the high priest.
Looking at the extremely luxurious throne in front of him, the high priest couldn't help frowning slightly, he didn't like this bright style, but after thinking about it, this was also the embodiment of De Rossi's deferential attitude, at least De Rossi's attitude was very upright.
The High Priest looked at the humans and Semitic people in the hall in silence for a moment, and his gaze was so that everyone hurriedly bowed their heads, fearful of his authority.
The high priest nodded with satisfaction and said, "What I said today can let the whole world know that I and our Eternals, the Semites, we are not enemies of mankind, and the people of the Vatino advertise that we are cannibalistic demons and soul-draining demons, hehe......"
The High Priest chuckled and said, "You can claim that we have killed a civilian, and even your enemies, the peacekeepers, after they surrendered, we only tried to appease them. ”
Our goal is to eradicate the corrupt and depraved Church, to eliminate the hypocritical elemental mages, and to spread the fairness and order of the demon gods.
This war has nothing to do with the people of mankind, and I hereby declare that as long as he is willing to throw himself to us, I, in the name of my high priest, guarantee the security of his title and property, whether it is a king's, or a king, a nobleman, or a nobleman.
And I'll double the reward~!"rq!!
