Chapter 726 The seventh country of the alliance and the secret
With the arrival of the airworthiness season after the end of winter, St. Ivan City and Long Island Port have gradually become busy.
Although the largest number of indigenous citizens in the old territory live here, under the guidance of macro-policy, they have begun to quickly integrate into the new lifestyle.
suddenly.
"Listen, where did the bells come from?"
"Look at the sky, it's a miracle!"
Accompanied by the huge bells sounding in the void, a white cloud in the sky slowly cracked, casting a large area of brilliant golden cross light. In the center is the White Swan Castle, the core of the land.
After a small riot in the city, all the Nemansters who realized what was happening immediately excitedly performed the "Black Iron Cross Church" in that direction, chanting the holy name of the goddess.
Of course, just like the battle against Ilya in the first battle, the angels would never easily show themselves on a large scale.
Only the very few most pious existences among the residents can vaguely see the vague figure with snow-white wings in the holy light, and just this is enough to make you cry.
With the brilliant sound and light effects, a large-scale blessing magic also came to this city, falling on every believer indiscriminately. If the faith value can be quantified, the overall increase of at least ten percentage points in one wave of operation.
At this time, the news that the marquis of Gallott was upgraded to the principality was actually just passed back not long after. A miracle came soon, which made it clear that nothing was said.
The Principality is the place where the goddess is favored! Saint Alvin is the goddess’ beloved!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
While the huge bell rang, Alvin, as a saint, had already heard the call of the Saint Angel Bellenus one step ahead of time, and quickly came out with his sister and Olivia, who were at White Swan Castle.
"this"
After taking two girls to the holy angels surrounded by the holy light, Alvin's expression was really subtle when he saw the thing that was holding in Bellenus's hand.
Just because this thing looks familiar.
Judging from the appearance, it is an exquisite sting sword that is mostly used as a ritual sword.
The semi-golded vine pattern and the gorgeous scabbard made of semi-ivory material are cast into a golden handguard that is a majestic lion's shape, and the hilt is inlaid with silver-colored mother-of-pearls.
It is very similar to the shape of the long sword that I admired in St James' Palace the previous second, except that there is a silver pearl inlaid at the end of the hilt, and a line of small characters Gallot is engraved.
There is no doubt that this is the "Gilded Lion Sword of the Mother's Skin" belonging to the Principal of Galliot!
Generally speaking.
When the monarch performs a merit award ceremony for knights and subordinate nobles, he will lightly tap the shoulders of the recipient with a ritual sword, with the purpose of "awakening from the nightmare and striving for the lofty ideals."
It is also a symbol of test and warning, testing whether the recipients can maintain lofty ambitions before violence and warn them that they will encounter even more cruel battles on the road ahead.
The deeper meaning is: the simplified symbol of force conquest and forced allegiance between people formed in ancient times. One is to symbolize that the monarch has conquered the recipients with his sword, and the other is to show that the monarch has the ability and power to punish the unfaithful.
As a military aristocrat who has gradually reached its current status, Alvin naturally experienced this process of awarding merit.
That was when he accepted the identity of the Crown Prince's guardian knight in his youth and swore that he would do his best to protect Levina and the Kingdom's safety for the rest of his life. In the blink of an eye, it was almost nine years ago.
But after getting this sword today, no king in the world can award him a medal.
"Duke Galliot, every founding monarch in the history of the alliance once obtained such a "Gilded Lion Sword of the Mother's Skin", which is also the "Sword of Royal Power" belonging to that country.
And you are the only exception. Those who have obtained the throne as a non-titled knight should take it and accept the gift of the goddess!”
Amid the gentle encouragement of the Holy Angel, Evan thanked gently. In the excited eyes of Anita and Olivia beside her, she stretched out her hands to take over the "Sword of Royal Power" that belonged to her.
Buzz
Just as the fingertips touched the gorgeous long sword, the golden divine light suddenly burst out on it, a phantom of a giant wearing an ancient crown suddenly appeared behind Alvin, with a profound majesty.
The powerful king's majesty was released with Alvin and the "Golden Lion Sword of the Mother's Shou". Anita and Olivia, who were standing behind him, couldn't help but take two steps back, and even the Holy Angel could not help but look surprised.
"Mars, the ancestor of giants?"
Alvin, who had already held the sword in his hand, did not expect that the "Sword of Kings" would resonate with the [Bloodline Plug-in Giant] in his body, creating such a strange vision.
The ancestor of the ancient giants, "The True God Mars", was the god of agriculture, war, royal power, order and riot at the beginning of the era. It is also known as the "bloody murderous demon king and the conqueror of the defensive castle", and may even be the first true god in this era to possess [humanized clergy].
Let’s look back at the two existing real gods who possess the [Man-made Clergy]. The clergy of "Royal Power and the Goddess of Navigation" are [Royal Power] and [Sailing], and the "God of Black" are [War of Unrighteousness], [Atrocities], [Robbery], [Theft].
This coincidence really makes people think a lot.
However, the vision only lasted for a moment and disappeared, and Alvin had no intention of exploring it for the time being. Since the sword was in his hand, it would be time to figure it out sooner or later.
By the way, I completely swallowed the second half of the words that had just come to my mouth when I talked to Levina.
I just want to say one thing, it smells so good!
When the Saint Angel Bellenus saw the disappearing phantom, his face became more interesting.
But the foundation of the gods is not knowledge but concepts and authority, nor omniscient and omnipotent, and cannot fully understand Alvin's current life form. Of course, he also does not have the extreme desire for knowledge like a wizard.
"Holy Angel, the first batch of spring tea in my [Witchcraft Garden] is already ripe. Why not sit at home and taste it?"
Under normal circumstances, even if there are intersections due to "official affairs", the angels representing the will of the true god will not communicate too much with the kings on earth.
"Those who belong to God belong to God, and those who belong to King belong to King" are the most basic ethics for "king power and the goddess of navigation" and their angels under their command, but it is an exception for Alvin.
The division of humans and gods is mainly to prevent the gods from affecting the development process of the mortal world too much. However, when he came into contact with Alvin, Berenus hoped to be more influenced by him and learn from his ideas to correct the path of gods.
Five minutes later, he restrained all his visions and turned into a heroic young man, and sat in the tea room of White Swan Castle with Alvin.
Using his own bone porcelain tea set, poured him a cup of tender green tea soup. Alvin carefully said with his words:
"Holy Angel, I've always had a question I want to ask you?"
After seeing him nodding with satisfaction after sipping a sip of tea, he continued:
"In the century of discovering the new world, why did the powerful church not focus on developing the new world? Even the potential believers of Atlians with a total population of hundreds of millions are dismissed? It should not be just because they are unwilling to interfere in the material world, right?"
In fact, this is a question that has troubled Alvin for a long time. The answer of the Holy Angel is related to his future policy of ruling the continent. Should we maintain restraint and make a quick move? Or do we use all our means and act resolutely?
Seeing Alvin's thoughts, Berenus chuckled:
"Actually, if you don't ask, I'm going to tell you this time. You don't need to think too much on this land, just do it according to your ideas.
Although the main priest is the true god of [Man-made priesthood], only our great goddess and the "Black Winged God", the changes in human society have the greatest impact on them.
But most true gods may be very happy to see a powerful human civilization rise on the New World.
And why do you think that only the Source Continent has the faith of the True God in the known world? And there are seven? It is obvious that the New World is even more vast and richer than the Source Continent, why has the True God never revealed miracles?"
Noting that Alvin had been in deep thought, the Holy Angel thought about it and still gave him an answer that was not the answer:
"When one day you notice what is inside the Broken Star Sea, you may understand the answer.
Hurry up, when you become part of the rules of this world like us and become a manager, the ordinary [world favor] will no longer be useful.
Now you just need to know that no matter what you do in the New World, the true God and the church will not interfere. My only advice to you is not to take the initiative to commit a massacre of the Atlians."
Then.
They turned the topic to a response plan for the bourgeoisie, a key concern, and the role of listening and speaking was immediately reversed.
After a pot of new tea was finished, the Holy Angel stood up and said goodbye, looked at Alvin's head and smiled jokingly:
"Your Majesty, you should prepare a crown for yourself."
In the alliance, at least one must be at the level of the six kings who can directly talk to God and the church to be qualified to wear the crown on formal occasions.
Although it still belongs to the Kingdom of Fareth, it is the principality of its enfeoffment.
