With just a few thoughts, Strauss understood that Palau was acting. He stepped forward with a smile and put his hand radiating holy light on Palau's head.
"Go, child, His Majesty Devonshire is benevolent, and any devout follower will have the opportunity to become a member of the Holy Knights.
And those who are unbelieving or have evil intentions have no chance to pick up the Paladin suit."
Palau was shocked, and couldn't help but worry that he, who had hesitated just now, was already dishonest, and would he still have a chance to wear the Paladin armor?
He wanted to retreat, but then he thought about the knights and paladins all around him, as well as the previous burning of the holy light, the armor and the war horses falling from the sky just now, and Palau shuddered in his heart.
With the miracle just now, even if the Paladins killed themselves, the city lord, on the spot, no one would jump out and go against the Paladins.
Thinking of this, Palau couldn't help but calm down, put his hands together on his lowered forehead, and silently prayed to William in his heart.
I couldn't stand up for a while, so I knelt on my knees and moved little by little to the pile of armors five or six meters away, and then prayed again, and then with fear, expectation and excitement,
He reached out to grab the suit of armor and took a deep breath to lift it up.
After unexpectedly feeling that the armor was a little light, Palau's face turned red with excitement. If it weren't for his relaxed mind and lack of energy, and the thought of not being too proud in front of Strauss, he would have almost shouted.
It took a while to recover, and then the knight armor was put on without any surprise, but the lightning symbol also dimmed as expected.
Although he felt a little disappointed, he was probably very excited just to be able to put on the knight armor. He walked to the team of preparatory knights with a smile, not caring at all that as the city lord, he actually had to be on par with the previous guards.
class.
The nobles who then reacted cheered and ran into the square. However, Palau, who was already standing in the crowd of trainee knights, saw all the nobles. After getting Strauss's consent, no one could pick up the ground.
After the battle armor.
The last doubt in Palau's heart disappeared in an instant.
How entangled and doubtful I was before, I am now so pious and fanatical.
He didn't need anyone to teach him how to practice Holy Light Magic. Having experienced Holy Light entering his body once, he was able to evolve pure Holy Light energy in his body.
Strauss and the surrounding knights looked with joy and confusion at Palau, who could automatically absorb the holy light and easily light up the lightning sign, truly entering the ranks of the trainee paladin.
"How on earth did you do that?"
Looking at the reserve knight who asked him, Palau, whose face was full of piety, said calmly, "How pious your heart is, how generous the king of the gods will be."
While the preparatory knights were thoughtful, William on Mount Olympus also thought in disbelief as to why Palau, who was only a light believer before, could become his fanatical believer so quickly.
After seeing Palau looking at the nobles who were unable to pick up the armor with a mocking expression, William suddenly understood.
The previous practice of allowing 47 Olympus natives to all become knights or trainee paladins made Palau, who was suspicious and obsessed with power, suspicious.
But now that he saw that he could become a knight, but other nobles could not, Palau, who had experienced two miracles, could no longer doubt everything in front of him, and began to truly believe in William.
Haha, it seems that this belief is the same as doing business. Only through comparison can buyers cherish it more and be willing to pay for their beliefs.
Thinking of this, William felt the huge power of faith and appeared around him out of thin air. While collecting the power of faith,
Bian immediately set the criteria for selecting members of the Knights at the level of fanatic believers.
Otherwise, not to mention forty-three sets, hundreds of sets are not enough to distribute, and the elderly and weak, women and children are no longer included in William's plan.
Sure enough, in just one afternoon, nine fanatics appeared among the thousands of people in the square, and this was the result of William deliberately choosing only adult men in their 20s and 30s.
As for the women and the dozens of older fanatics, William thought for a while and sent a message to Strauss, asking him to appease these people on the grounds that the Knights were the sword of the God King.
Then he publicly told the believers that as long as they were followers of William, they would be eligible to receive free holy light treatment for injuries once a year in the future temple.
Moreover, as the shared temple of William, Athena, and Arthenis, not only does it not require believers to donate wealth, but the cost of temple construction is also provided by the Holy Knights themselves.
Even if the believers have time, the Knights can hire them and pay them to build the temple together.
Now, whether they were casual believers or fanatical believers, they instantly respected William, the God-King, even more.
A god who does not exploit poor people like them is a popular and kind god.
When the nobles heard this, they didn't believe it and had doubts. At the same time, some wanted to take a look first.
If everything is true as Strauss said, all nobles, let alone ordinary people, will sincerely welcome the Holy Knights to settle in and build a temple that does not exploit anyone but allows everyone to make a fortune.
For William, he could have as many gold and silver coins as he wanted.
William, who owns several multidimensional universes, can pave all the temples with gold as long as he wants.
To take it a step further, making gold coins as useless as stones in the Olympus domain is just a matter of allowing Sunday to mine them with all their strength for a period of time.
It is impossible for the Holy Knights to not be short of money and to give people jobs but not to win the approval of the people.
Immediately, a one-cubic storage ring filled with gold coins appeared in Strauss's hand.
One cubic meter of gold is 19.2 tons. One hundred grams of Devonshire gold coins is 192,000 pieces. Even if the gold coins are round and there are gaps between them, there are still 120,000 pieces in the storage ring.
In addition, the gold coins in the Olympus Divine Domain are not as luxurious as a hundred grams each. A city-state with ten grams is considered a conscientious city.
With the poor manpower of the slave society, the weak mining and refining technology, 1.2 million gold coins, let alone building a temple, may be enough to rebuild the hell city.
After the sky was getting dark, Strauss used only ten Devonshire gold coins to make the owner of the largest hotel in the city happily agree to provide the knights with accommodation, food, and fodder for the horses for a month.
Supply of oats.
One person, one horse, the price of one 10-gram gold coin per month. When Palau said that the price was too high, he saw Strauss shaking his head with a smile.
Since there is no shortage of money, then use the excuse of not understanding the market to let people in the city know that the Knights really are not short of money.
As for future purchases, there are many local knights in the knights who know the prices of goods clearly.
One night passed, and when I appeared at the window the next morning, I saw at least two thousand soldiers standing neatly on the street.
