"Since the Lord God opened up this continent in the legend, the ancestors of each country have laid their respective foundations in the chaotic environment at that time, but they have all surrendered to the glory of the Lord God. Among all the countries on the continent, as long as
Even cities with a slightly denser population have set up temples to spread the reputation of the main god." Lord Perigo opened his mouth, but it seemed to be a completely unrelated topic: "And in the capital of every empire, there are even more temples.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Tower of the Lord God, which is the tallest building in the Imperial City and even taller than the Imperial City, has been built opposite the Imperial City. It represents that the power of the Lord God pervades every empire on the continent.
The secular imperial power can only crawl under the divine power of the Lord God..."
"Wait a minute, respected Lord Perigord." Link really couldn't stand Lord Perigord's speaking style that didn't know where to go as soon as he opened his mouth. He shook his head and interrupted Perigord.
Lord Ge said: "We all know that you are very familiar with the history of the continent since its founding, but can you first tell us what happened just now when the thrones of the major empires were involuntarily passed on?! In the current continent
Is there really such a mysterious force that can actually intervene in things like the inheritance of the throne between major empires?!"
Earl Weir and Di Lang obviously agreed deeply with Link's statement. They nodded and looked closely at Lord Perigo.
The few of them have long been intrigued by what Lord Perigue just said. After all, among them, Dilang is a member of an ancient intelligent race, and Earl Weil is also a descendant of a high-ranking noble family in the Bavaria Empire.
, However, after hearing what Lord Perry just said, they exhausted all the information in their minds, and it was really hard to imagine that there would really be such a powerful force on this continent as Lord Perry said.
And mysterious forces can actually affect important matters such as the replacement of thrones between major empires.
You must know that although the power of the royal family is not the same in all major empires, even in the empire with the least imperial power, the royal family is at least the largest aristocratic family in the empire and the largest force.
Being able to control the succession of thrones between major empires is in fact at least equivalent to controlling the lifeblood of more than half of these empires. How can such a huge force that controls the entire continent be able to remain mysteriously hidden from Count Lianville?
It is simply unimaginable that the aristocratic family represented by the Gorkant family, which is already at the center of the empire's power, is unaware of this.
Therefore, they had been waiting to hear Lord Perigord's answer all morning. Now, hearing Lord Perigord's attitude of starting from the opening up of the continent, no one could stand it.
"Young people tend to be more impulsive. Please give the elderly a little more patience." However, this old fox, Mr. Perigueux, looked like he was addicted to it. He also deliberately slowed down his speaking speed to make every word.
He said slowly: "What I just said is exactly what you want to know."
"Dear Lord Perigord, what we want to know is the secret of the succession of emperors in the major empires on the continent that you just mentioned." Link was about to go berserk, staring at Perigord and saying: "This
What does it have to do with the glory of the main god or the temple?!"
"Uh, could it be..." Just when Link said this, an idea that even he couldn't believe suddenly came to his mind. Although he was still staring at Lord Perigo, the look on his face
There was already a look of surprise on his face.
Dilang and Earl Weir are both quick-thinking guys. After seeing the strange expression on Link's face and being briefly surprised, they immediately understood and looked at it in disbelief.
Lord Perigueux, I really can't believe such an answer.
"Are you surprised?" Lord Perigo looked at Link and the others with understanding, sighed, and showed a look of reminiscence: "When I just heard His Majesty Gray I say this from his own mouth, I also told you
Same surprise."
"Temple?!" Although he had already received confirmation from Lord Perigord, Link asked again solemnly with a strong questioning tone: "What you just said can affect all the major cities on the continent.
The mysterious force that changes the throne between empires is the temple of the main god?!"
It's not that Link doesn't believe what Lord Perigo said. Looking at Lord Perigo's expression, he also knows that this guy is not joking, and with the experience and identity of this old fox, if he is deliberately bluffing, he will definitely
There are thousands of ways to do it, not to mention such an excuse that is completely unreasonable and hard to believe.
When they heard what Lord Perigo just said, Link and the others had already had various and even unbelievable imaginations about this so-called mysterious force in their minds, even if Lord Perigo said that this mysterious force
In fact, the power is the demon that once fought with the gods in ancient times. I am afraid they will not be as surprised as before. However, no matter how rich their imagination is, it is still difficult to impress them.
The temple of the main god, which is almost harmless to humans and animals, is connected with the huge mysterious force that Lord Perigue said can be regarded as controlling the destiny of all empires on the continent.
Since the ancient war between gods, the Yuan Yue clan has been cursed to live underground. Therefore, the Earth Wolf has been staying at the gathering point of the Yuan Yue clan since he was born, and has only the impression of the ground above.
For the small village and town at that time, they didn’t have a very clear idea of this temple or even the so-called main god, so that was fine. But for Link and Earl Weir, or for everyone living in the Bavaria Empire,
For a person, a temple is nothing unfamiliar.
Although on the current continent, the belief in the main god is jointly respected by all the major empires, and the temple that exists as the spokesperson of the main god is logically respected among the major empires.
It should have a status above all else. However, in fact, in this era, for most people in the Bavarian Empire, the belief in the Lord God has long been insignificant and is just a symbolic existence.
The temple, as the spokesperson of the main god, does exist in the empire's politics, army and all aspects of life, but it is just one of the many official institutions of the Bavarian Empire. The priests in those temples do not seem to have anything special.
This place, even in Link's memory, at least the temple in the small town of Coloburg where he was born, is the most approachable of the many yamen. When he was a child, he often went to the temple of Coloburg with some children to cause trouble.
When the priests discovered him, they only gave him a few scoldings at most, unlike other places where he was often chased and beaten.
Moreover, Link had also come into contact with some of the priests who accompanied the Knights. Even if his vision was not too high at the time, he could already feel that these priests were not really great and powerful. When he was in the Knights,
, these priests also obviously abide by the discipline of the army and obey the orders of the military commanders. It can be said that they should completely belong to the empire. Although the priests of the temple do penetrate into every aspect of the lives of everyone in the empire.
However, it is impossible to explain that relying on such strength can actually affect the change of the imperial throne.
"Impossible." In response to Link's question, Earl Weir opened his mouth and gave an categorical negative answer: "Dear Lord Perigueux, you seem to have forgotten that the Gurkant family is in Bavaria.
Even if the status of the empire is not as high as that of your Avarina family in the Sakara Empire, it is probably not far behind. If the answer to the mysterious force you just mentioned is that the major gods are worshiped in all the major empires
temple, then I have to doubt your sincerity, Lord Perigord.”
"In the collections of our Gurkant family, there are also records about the conflict between the imperial power of the empire and these temples." Count Weir turned to Link and Dilang and explained: "According to legend, there are many conflicts between the empire and these temples."
When the empire was just founded, the ancestors of the major empires, in order to show their respect for the main god who single-handedly reestablished the order of the continent, established that every emperor's succession must go through the ceremony of blessing and canonization in the temple, and it was precisely because of this.
In this way, a long time ago, there were several archbishops who controlled several major imperial temples. Out of their own ambitions, they tried to use such power to influence the throne change of the imperial royal family, and indeed they once caused quite a storm.
, but with the joint efforts of several major empires, such a storm was quickly suppressed. Since then, although the royal families of several major empires have not openly abolished the temple out of respect for the main god, they have
Everyone began to pay attention to the control of temples. Temples that did not have a suitable name to intervene and seize power were simply not opponents of the secular government. Therefore, according to the records of the Gorkant family, most of the temples on the mainland now even appoint bishops from various places.
His power has been taken back by the imperial royal family, and he is nothing more than a puppet."
"Speaking this kind of thing is somewhat blasphemous to the Lord God. For the royal families of the major empires who still claim to their people that they are devout believers of the Lord God, they still don't want to publicize it.
The people have never heard of such a thing happening," Earl Weir said to Link, but his eyes stared at Lord Perigo: "But for us families who have been at the center of the empire's power since the founding of the country,
Speaking of which, this matter is not a secret at all. In the Bavarian Empire, the successor chosen by the previous archbishop was not the current archbishop. However, under the order of the imperial royal family, he could only do so without any conditions.
The land has compromised. To say that the temple can affect the succession of the imperial throne, Lord Perigueux, I think you are saying the opposite?!"
Link was originally just a commoner and had never heard of these secrets that were circulated among the upper-class nobles. It was even more impossible for the Earth Wolf to know these things. Now listening to the background explained by Count Weir, he felt even more admirable.
What Lord Rigg just said is indeed very impossible.
"Lord Vere," Lord Perigueux listened to Count Vere's rebuttal, but he looked confident and said slowly and calmly: "The Gurkant family has indeed been canonized since the founding of the Bavarian Empire. The first-class aristocratic family. I think you should have read in the Gorkanth family's records about the temple that at the beginning of the founding of the country, when the temple was being built, there was a fight over the construction of the Ming Palace. Or is it the choice of the Xuan Palace?! What do you think the so-called Ming Palace and the Xuan Palace represent?!"
"Yes! There is indeed such a statement." Earl Weir was stunned for a moment, thought about it for a short time, and then replied: "But it was not explained clearly by the royal family at that time. This was a dispute between two different architectural styles, such as The main temple of the imperial capital of our Bavarian Empire adopts the architectural layout of the Ming Palace, with eight corners..."
Earl Vere is the only son of the Gorkant family of this generation. He has been raised as an heir since he was a child. He has been reading about the classics passed down in these families since he was a child. Moreover, his character is quite gossipy, so he is For these side information, which are often regarded as useless secrets, I pay more attention to it, and therefore remember it more firmly. Now I am casually asked by Lord Perigueux about such a piece of information from who knows how many years ago. I remembered the records clearly and answered them fluently.
"Hahahaha", Lord Perigo raised his head and let out a long laugh: "I knew that the Gurkant family's records on this matter would definitely have such an answer, and even everyone on the continent who could The aristocratic families who are qualified to know about this matter all wrote about the same reason for the distinction between the Ming Palace and the Xuan Palace. No one has ever mentioned that such a temple that has existed for countless years has happened in such a long time. A small dispute over architectural style was treated as something worthy of attention, including by our Avarina family.”
"It wasn't until that day when I heard the words of His Majesty Grai I before his death that I really knew what the difference between the Ming Palace and the Rotating Palace was." Lord Perigueux obviously had another problem. Recalling the scene that night, I sighed softly.
"Oh?" Listening to what Lord Perigueux said seemed to be well-founded, Earl Weir couldn't help but put away his original negative attitude, frowned, and said: "Is this the difference between the Ming Palace and the Rotating Palace? Is there any secret behind the separation?"
"Yes." Sir Perigueux nodded: "Until that day His Majesty Gray I told me personally, I didn't know that a long time ago, he chose to build the Ming Palace or the Rotating Palace in his empire, and Not the royal families of the major empires, nor the architects who presided over the construction of temples, but some strong men from mysterious places. According to His Majesty Grai I, among the secrets passed down from generation to generation by the imperial royal family, To make it clear, these mysterious people who chose the Ming Palace and the Xuan Palace are the followers of the Lord God!"
"Servant of the Lord God?!" Link and Earl Weir were both startled. No matter how weak their belief in the Lord God was, in this continent where the name of the Lord God has penetrated into almost every aspect of everyone's life. After staying on the Internet for so long, I still inevitably feel a strange emotion about the word Lord God.
They have always felt that this main god should not exist in reality, and is similar to a spiritual idol. Now listening to the meaning of Lord Perigo's words, it seems that there is another one behind this temple. Of course, they couldn't help but be surprised by the real traces of the Lord God's activities.
The Earth Wolf did not express any surprise. The Yuanyue clan is an ancient wise race that has been inherited from the time when the gods were still walking on the earth before the ancient war of gods. In their scriptures, there is something about this There are endless records of similar miracles, and even their divine initiates can directly communicate with the God of the Full Moon. For him, this so-called main god is just one of the powerful ones on the earth, and Don't take it too seriously.
"Yes, this period of history, even among the imperial royal family, has become the core secret. Even among the imperial royal family, it is passed on to each other in the form of word of mouth, and it is never written down." Lord Perigueux continued: "If the situation at that time had not been completely beyond the control of His Majesty Gray I, His Majesty Gray I would never have told this secret to me, an outsider who does not belong to the imperial royal family."
"In such a long inheritance, some information is inevitably lost. Therefore, even His Majesty Grai I is not very clear about where the so-called servants of the Lord God came from, and what exactly they are. What kind of existence is it?" Lord Périgueux said: "Your Majesty only knows that those servants of the Lord God showed abilities consistent with their status at that time, which made the royal families of the major empires accept their Therefore, with their participation, the temples in all the empires on the mainland were divided into two parts. One part was called the Ming Palace, and the other part was called the Rotating Palace. The temples in your Bavarian Empire The temple belongs to the Mingdian system, while the temple in our Sakala Empire belongs to the Rotating Hall system."
"Then what is the difference between the Ming Palace and the Rotating Palace?!" Link frowned and asked.
"All power in the Ming Palace, including the empire where the Palace is located, belongs to the secular empire, to the obedience of the Lord God, and to the emperors of the major empires themselves. However, the country where the Rotating Palace is located has all the highest powers." Lord Perigueux Looking at Link, his eyes showed a mixture of fear and anger: "They all belong only to God!"
