575. God descends
"The time has come to go on the march
You look me in the eye uneasily
I capture the breath of my hometown
Thunderstorms fell on the plains in the distance
……”
The sound of autumn grass echoed throughout the square, soft but powerful, and more than a dozen columns around the square played the farewell song.
This is one of the favorite songs of the barbarians, and every time they leave the territory, the ladies of the tribe will sing this song, and by the time the song reaches the fourth stage, it has become a chorus of the whole square.
After the song was finished, the barbarians cheered "galloping horses, galloping horses", and the enthusiastic atmosphere gradually infected Milady, Contani, and their students Umoni and Raccoon in the square.
"Galloping horses! Galloping horses! ”
At the front of the academy procession, there were nobles and commoners from the royal capital, such as Veris introduced by the mercenary leader Emmanuel, Merritt who came with Grea, and Dandilian, Elenda Maned Wolf, and Britt Landarin from the royal capital.
Some of these children were the illegitimate children of large families, some were the children of nobles appointed by the family, and some had unknown intentions, but no matter what beliefs they had before, and what kind of festivals they had, they were now gradually shouting the same slogan, shouting loudly with the barbarians, the demonsless, and even the orcs around them.
Around the square, students who were close to intermediate level maintained the order of the crowd, including Daqira Wyvern, Uffi, and Tomokri Lanyuan, who joined the iron mines, as well as small cloth heads and knife handles that were added in the salt mines and even earlier.
Most of them have witnessed the rise of Night Kirk from a ruin to its current prosperity, and some have even seen Rand grow from an obscure baron to a high-ranking lord.
For them, the word galloping horse is no longer a simple slogan, but a link between themselves and their territory, and between everyone.
On the terrace of a row of buildings on the north side of the circular plaza, Huck and all the members of the Galloping Horse clan and the vassals watched the crowd of people approaching frenzy below.
Whether it was Albert Galloping Horse, or Enkris from the dragon's small family, or Casaremont, a member of the Galloping Horse Foundation from the Imperial Capital, now they finally understood what Dandilian had said: the galloping horses of the Night Qicheng City may really be the galloping horses of the galloping horse tribe, not just their surnames.
On the terrace on the south side of the square, the barbarian high priest roared and the brown bear looked at the crowd below, nodded with satisfaction, and said to the barbarian priests behind him: "Your Excellency is almost ready, let's start!" ”
The priests chanted the barbarian prayers together, and the whole square gradually fell silent, and the sound of prayer gradually spread from the faint to the faint, and everyone who heard it bowed their heads and prayed sincerely.
On the west side of the square, a monument in the shape of a large gate serves as the eastern boundary of the square.
At the top of the triumphal arch, the High Priest Nicholas White, the Grand Knight Bert Kaur and the ascetic Wright Duoreiner meditated on the prayers, an event that Rand could have invited the Triumvirate of the Dragon Knights to preside over but he had invited them to do so.
While meditating on the Emperor's proverbs, Lighter Doriner suddenly felt a pair of eyes in the middle of the square look at him, and instead of opening his eyes, he raised his head and felt the gaze with his own mind.
"Your Majesty, is it really you?"
To the east of the square, at the center of the huge shrine complex, is a 30-meter-high statue of the Emperor.
Beneath the statue, the triumvirate of the Dragon Knights, along with Alexei Dzochen, Ben Kaul, and Beffin Klein, watched from afar to the west, almost consolidating the stream of faith and soaring into the sky.
The head of the Dragon Knights, the Golden Knight William Wallace Augustus, respectfully said to Alexei Zhuoqin, who was only an intermediate level beside him: "I'm afraid that Rand will not only bring you faith, but he will also use the characteristics of these believers and the Galloping Horse Plain to intercept some of the stream!" ”
At this moment, Alexei's eyes were full of golden light, in the magic net, such golden light spread to the idol behind him, hearing William Wallace's words, he said disdainfully, "There are thousands of lords in the world, and there is only one who can bring me so many believers, I really don't mind sharing with him!" ”
As "Alexei" closed his eyes lightly and said a few words silently, a light fell through the faint clouds in the sky above the western square, and a warm and kind voice sounded in everyone's heart, which was the response of the god of knights and magicians from the empire.
A slight roar gradually sounded from the western part of the square, and Rand rode the fire at the most opportune time.
In the magic net, Rand already felt that a strong magic power was rising from the bottom of the square, and all he had to do at this moment was to condense these magic powers.
The rand that flew into the sky above the square did not stop, but continued to circle around the monument in the center of the square, the light falling from the sky gradually brighter, and the proverbs of the god emperor echoed throughout the square.
When the light dissipated, the ascetic Wright Duolena suddenly felt the blessing from the gods, and the last ray of light in the sky even left a tiny mark on his forehead.
"Congratulations Wright, this is Your Majesty's reward for you!" Bert Kaul smiled and said, "I believe that as long as you continue to persevere, you will have no problem becoming an altar priest in the future!" ”
The ascetic broke through, but the activity in the square was not over, and Rand rode the fire and gently landed on the top of the monument in the center of the square.
"My lords, members of the galloping horse tribe, and the inhabitants of Nightqi City, I am your lord, your chief,
Over the past few months, I have worked with you to re-establish the city, bathing the entire Galloping Horse Plain under the protection of His Majesty, and the Night Kirk City is not just a walled city surrounded by brick and stone rooms, but a city where you live, live, and have children.
Some of you have been beaten in the mines, some have been invaded by the cold winter on the grasslands, and some have endured hunger under the rubble, and today, thanks to the efforts of me and each of you, such days have passed!
It is a miracle for everyone that the city has been rebuilt in ruins for 300 years, and the plains disturbed by magical turbulence for 1,000 years have been blessed by the gods.
However, I have to tell you that the orcs further west of the Iowa Pass have noticed this, and in their eyes you are weak, slaves, and even rations! ”
Rand stayed for a few seconds to make the crowd in the audience emotional, and sure enough, the crowd in the square let out a voice of surprise and discussion.
"Now, I will take the knights of our Night Qi City, the warriors of the galloping horse tribe to resist them, and we will keep the invaders out of the mountain pass. His Majesty the Great Emperor will bless our galloping army! I will be with each and every one of you! ”
Led by many priests, the square once again shouted in unison, "Galloping horses, galloping horses"
Now that the population of Night Qi City alone has reached tens of thousands, the shouts of 10,000 people in unison have made the magic power rise again, and even Rand has felt the enhancement of substance.
Under the saddle of the blazing fire, a white flame leaped up with the magic power, revealing the appearance of a white flame fairy in the air, and she kept hovering around Rand, greedily absorbing the energy of faith.
Rand looked at the happy white flame goblin and smiled knowingly, but at this moment, Tenya's voice sounded from the red delicate ball in his chest.
"Rand, let me give you one more small gift!"
