- Chapter 462 - The Emperor and the Great Pope of Light, the first battle of the Chosen Dragon
With the gradual arrival of spring, the entire empire was like a lion waking up from its slumber. Ryan left the tundra territory in a car and looked at the giant beast in the sky in the distance on a mountain peak.
The powerful extraordinary gargoyle army belonging to Count Pascal is flying in the sky. They forcefully hold the Wonder Manor in the sky. The huge magic circle is imprinted on the wonder. This wonder belongs to the North Wind Province. With this A shocking way to leave this land.
On the earth, countless civilians and slaves knelt on the ground, praying excitedly for the bright faith.
“Where is it going to be sent?”
Ryan marveled at Count Pascal’s strength and spent so much effort to relocate the bright spectacle. I’m afraid that His Majesty the Emperor will make big moves soon.
“It should be sent to the Imperial City. I know that some members of the royal family have begun to take charge of the Church of Light.”
Viscount Hogg said that the Divine Grace Festival had passed and the arrival of spring made His Majesty the Emperor unable to hold back any longer.
…
Imperial capital province.
This is the most extensive and prosperous province in the empire. If the imperial capital is here, it is destined that all the power of the entire empire will be born here.
It used to be royal power, but now, His Majesty the Emperor in the Imperial City is gradually assuming divine power.
The unity of politics and religion, His Majesty Emperor Flor wants to make his authority unique throughout the Norris continent. After the end of the Divine Grace Festival, this noble emperor has been preparing for this.
The arrival of the bright wonder in the North Wind Province will allow him to completely complete the unity of royal power and divine power.
For this reason, he specially invited people from the Holy See of Dawn to come and watch the ceremony.
“To celebrate the victory of the empire over the evil orcs under the will of the great God of Light, I, the Emperor of Flor, will once again accept the oracle of the great and immortal light, and I will lead the empire to the eternity of light! The emperor of Lore will become the closest believer to the light!”
“The light has given the emperor of the empire a precious oracle, and the emperor of the empire will repay the great being with his devout faith.”
“Orcs have threatened the human world for thousands of years. Every invasion of orcs will bring unimaginable disaster and destruction to the entire human world, but from now on, it will never happen again!”
“Under the leadership of the empire and relying solely on the empire, we can defeat the evil orc army. Our powerful army even prevents the orcs from appearing in front of the people of the empire!”
“The only chance for those evil orcs to appear in front of us is to become slaves!”
“We no longer need to be afraid of the ferocious faces of the orcs!”
The emperor’s will reverberated not only in the lands of the empire, but also in all the kingdoms and noble territories in the southern lands.
His meaning is also very simple. In the past, human civilization was led by the Holy See of Dawn. However, under the leadership of the Holy See, every full-scale invasion of orcs was a disaster for all mankind.
It is different now. Under the leadership of the Empire, the full-scale invasion of the orcs cannot even cross the borders of the Empire. Under the protection of the Empire, mankind will find eternal peace.
In fact, under the will of light, the great existence also cares about the empire.
“The Emperor of the Flor Empire should become the Pope of Light.”
In this world, a second pope will appear.
This news undoubtedly swept through the entire southern land like a tornado. All the nobles looked in the direction of the empire in shock. They did not expect that the emperor of the Flor Empire would be so bold.
The power of the Holy See of Dawn comes from faith. Strictly speaking, all the power in the hands of the Pope, all the power to command nobles and command humans, comes from the great Lord of Dawn and from mortals’ faith in gods.
The pope controls the road to heaven, like the superstructure of the world, representing the flashy fantasies of the nobles, while the kings and nobles control the rule of mortals and are the foundation of everything.
But now, the Emperor of the Flor Empire is going to become the Pope, and he is the emperor with the most royal power in the world. He wants to control both the upper echelon and the foundation.
Regardless of whether it is successful or not, first of all, the contradiction in this matter is that when the emperor of the empire has a foundation and a belief, does the Holy See of Dawn still have meaning in existence?
The emperor of the empire is going to turn the entire Holy See of Dawn into ashes from the root and disappear into history.
The Church of Light will become a substitute for the Holy See of Morning, but the Church of Light is no longer the Holy See of Morning, and most importantly, it is not in the hands of these high-ranking clergy.
“Shameless, thief! You will never gain the approval of the great Lord!”
“The holy light of the morning will burn your soul, purify your body, and allow you to bear the punishment of the Lord forever and ever!”
A person from the Holy See of Dawn, a red archbishop, jumped up and cursed at the emperor.
The emperor was very experienced and did not let the red archbishop get too close to him, and looked at this guy with a sneer.
“Do you also want to commit suicide in front of me? Use the dirty methods of your Holy See of Dawn to slander the emperor of the empire and the apostle of light?”
Naturally, this red-clothed archbishop would not commit suicide. Red-clothed archbishops who used suicide to frame the empire were very rare in today’s Holy See of Dawn.
The remaining people are greedy for the power and glory in their hands. What they compete with the emperor is power and the final interpretation of faith.
The red archbishop didn’t quite understand the behavior of the imperial nobles, but he knew very well that the belief in a great existence would not easily fall on humans.
“You will never be recognized by my lord, Emperor of the Empire. You smell too mortal. My lord will not favor you.”
“You cannot use the divine origin brought by the blasphemers to deceive believers in the entire world.”
“cheat?”
In the imperial capital city, the emperor burst out laughing.
“Other than you, the Holy See of Dawn, would anyone else deceive the nobles of the entire southern land?”
“I am the emperor of Flor and the great pope of light. I will never deceive my people, nor will I deceive believers of light!”
“Faith? Favor?”
“The great existence, the God of Light, will never favor any mortal, but he will definitely favor his faith.”
The emperor looked at the red archbishop. If he could, he would have sent his troops south to destroy the holy mountain.
“Your Holy See of the Dawn is more afraid of the Lord of the Dawn than in awe, so for all these years, you have never figured it out.”
“Why can humans establish the Holy See of Morning? The Pope will become the mortal closest to the great existence.”
“Because the faith that was born from humans needs humans to bear it!”
“Only human beings can bear the devout faith of human believers.”
“The Lord of the Morning needs a human to bring him the power to purify mankind. It can be the Pope of Dawn or the Pope of Light.”
“Whoever can bring Him the power of faith will be favored by Him.”
“The Lord of the Dawn will not favor the Pope because of his birth, and the God of Light will definitely favor Emperor Flor who can provide him with countless beliefs.”
“I will become the most noble existence in Norris!”
The emperor stood in the sky, and the sunlight from all directions converged towards him like a whirlpool. The golden light and shadow on the clear sky spectacularly shocked the tens of millions of people in the imperial capital province. Countless people knelt on the ground and watched in awe. The sunlight in the sky creates a distorted picture.
Emperor Flor has become the only one in the sky. He is so heroic in his heart. The king looks down on the world. Now he has touched the limit of this height.
As for the other side, the red archbishop of the Holy See, no, it can even be said that the more distant southern world, on the Holy Mountain of Dawn, each clergy, including the Pope, is staring in the direction of the empire.
They felt it, felt the power of faith, just like the divine magic given to them by the great Lord of the Morning, exactly the same breath.
The empire’s bright faith converged on the empire’s emperor.
The spectacular scene in the Imperial Capital Province will continue until the arrival of the bright spectacle in the Beifeng Province.
…
“Can human beings withstand the power of faith that gave rise to human beings?”
“Starting from the Blasphemer, it took the empire a hundred years to come to the conclusion…”
In the north, in the wind and snow, Archbishop Adriana walked barefoot on the snow, surrounded by hundreds of believers who served her with piety and awe. It didn’t take long for the archbishop to no longer pay attention to the southern sky.
“All despicable people will become the vessels of our Lord. Only those who are truly devout can serve our Lord and enjoy the eternity of the Kingdom of Heaven.”
“Archbishop Adriana, we have to go back.”
“Master Lane has received news. We can’t stay here to help you. If the emperor finds out, Master Lane can’t explain it.”
The Northern War Horse ran closer, and several strong men spoke loudly, and then began to wave others away.
“Every three months, we will transport a batch of supplies here. If you establish a new stronghold, please tell us in time. It will take a long time to prepare for gathering supplies from the Kingdom of Andala and transporting them here.”
Tundra Territory, Rhinohorn Mountain.
Even the most remote province of the empire, and even the Beifeng Province, which has gradually become isolated from the imperial environment, can still feel the tension caused by the emperor’s will.
The most direct thing is that Meyers’s voice in the North Wind Province has increased. A new round of war between the Empire and the Holy See will inevitably lead to an arms race, and the huge iron ore reserves in the North Wind Province will become even more important.
Some nobles have already sold their iron ore to further places through the Meyers family, bringing in enviable profits.
On Rhinohorn Mountain, Ryan made the opposite choice.
“I plan to reduce iron ore output.”
“Not just my territory, but also yours too.”
“Baron Lane, production is reduced at this time, but the nobles in the south are buying iron ingots from us at high prices. If we miss it, we will lose a lot of wealth.”
Viscount Walter of Tieshan County was a little anxious. Tieshan County used to be a major supplier of metal mines to Earl Winter. Now, no one wants to miss such a good opportunity.
Ryan felt relieved.
“Don’t worry, the war will not happen so soon, nor will it end so soon. Only when the war really comes, will the nobles understand what kind of weapons they need.”
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
“Including us.”
“If we want to earn wealth, we must first gain the trust of the nobles. This trust comes from how much help we can provide to those nobles in the war.”
“What we have to do is wait, wait for the reaction of the Holy See of Dawn. We need to know what kind of weapons the Holy See of Dawn has in hand, and whether the weapons forged by our current technology can fight against it. If not, many people will die on the battlefield. , but if we can, then we can gain a lot of wealth.”
“This is not a simple transaction, what we need is steady flow.”
“The war in the south will not spread to the North Wind Province, so we have a lot of time to stock up. The more we stock up, the more wealth we will be able to obtain by then.”
These nobles didn’t understand war economics. Anyway, Ryan directly asked them to stop transporting iron ore resources to the nobles in the south.
“We already need to provide a large amount of metal ore to the emperor elects. No matter how rich the mine is, it cannot withstand excessive mining.”
The emperor of the empire wants to be officially crowned as the Great Pope of Light. If nothing else, the day he becomes the Pope of Light also represents the arrival of a new round of war between the empire and the Holy See.
Because this is the most perfect time, the north of the empire no longer needs to worry about the threat of orcs, the enemy will only exist in the south.
Faced with this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the noble Emperor Flor will definitely be unable to hold back.
“The war will begin at the hands of the emperor.”
With the momentum and prestige gained from defeating the orcs, the empire was already qualified to challenge the Holy See.
“I really want to see it.”
Ryan is curious, curious about the south of the world, curious about the prosperity of the west coast, curious about the elves in the woodland, and also curious about the land of the furnace, the country of the dwarves, sandwiched between humans and the woodland.
But currently he cannot leave the tundra territory.
“I wonder how many surprises Nidhogg can bring me.”
In another world, the Emperor Chosen has been found.
But it wasn’t the bard Sven who found it, but the Emperor Chosen himself who exposed it.
I don’t know when it started, but news of the emperor-elect began to appear in the southern cities.
People began to discuss who the Emperor Chosen was, because there were many guys claiming to be Dragon Chosen around them.
but……
roar–
The giant dragon spread its wings and flew in the sky, its fiery dragon breath burned the sea of clouds. In the hollow of the clouds, the giant dragon monarch descended from the sky, stepped on the ruins of the city, and looked down at the humble ants at his feet.
“Where is the Dragon Chosen…?”
The giant dragon roared angrily, and a thumping heartbeat came from its chest. Some mysterious power made it certain that the Dragon Selector was around it.
Some human slaves have pushed out some people. These people used to call themselves Dragon Chosen to seek benefits, but now they are trembling and afraid to step forward, but it’s useless. There are too many people around and they can’t escape. Can’t escape.
“Distinguished dragon masters, they, they are all dragon choosers.”
The slave knelt on the ground in fear, and the dragon breathed out a mouthful of flame dragon breath, burning those fake dragon choosers.
Horrifying screams and wails spread throughout the streets and alleys, and the dragon angrily rose into the sky, and then its breath began to wantonly destroy the houses under its feet.
“How dare you deceive me!”
The dragon was angry. Those people were fake. It could tell that it didn’t feel the instinctive heart palpitations disappear. The Dragon Chosen One was still alive.
The dragon raged in the city for three days, until everything it saw was turned into ruins, and the cultivated fields outside the city were burned to ashes. After the heartbeat in its chest dimmed, the dragon spread its wings and disappeared. The distant sky.
In the ruins, the human slaves were lingering, and despair was spreading. They did not dare to run out until they heard no movement outside for a long time. But looking at their ruined hometown, no one could show a smile that could survive the disaster.
“The Dragon Chosen One will definitely kill the dragon, and he will take revenge on us.”
In a corner deep in the ruins, Fu’an felt that his power was getting stronger again. He heard the calls of many people. Even if he could block them, he could not change the voices that penetrated his ears. His soul began to be unable to bear the increasing number of calls. call.
There was a majestic roar in his heart, everything became quiet, and Fu An also opened his eyes at this time.
“Damn it!”
Fuan yelled, ran to the side, raised his head from the stone that was pressing on the executioner, and struggled to pull the executioner out.
However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the stones piled up above his head began to collapse, and Fuan had to hold a pillar against the ground.
It wasn’t until the executioner woke up that the two of them finally climbed out of the ruins after exhausting their efforts.
They looked around, and there was smoke everywhere after the flames were extinguished. Their strength was much greater than that of ordinary people. Even they almost couldn’t climb out. One can imagine how many people would survive in this world with only ruins. Will be trapped alive underground.
“Save someone quickly.”
Fan shouted loudly, and the two began to rescue the human slaves who were calling.
Outside this ruined city, the bard Sven also arrived here. He crossed a very vast land and finally reached the fifteen cities in the south.
Following Sven at this moment are hundreds of dark dragon warriors. Originally, the number was more than that. Dragon Lord Drummond gave Sven 300 dragon warriors. However, due to the attack of the Bucks Legion along the way, the number was only There are more than a hundred points left.
“That Lord Reindat destroyed this city. It seems that the Dragon Chosen One is not here.”
Sven said to himself, mainly because the dragon warriors behind him could not speak, and he was a little bored.
Sven rode the northern warhorse towards the city. Seeing this terrible army, the human slaves in the city who were in sorrow finally remembered the oppression of the dragon monarch from the long-standing legend, and looked at the dragon warriors in fear.
Sven ignored these vigilant and fearful humans, but locked onto Fuan and the other two who were busy in the ruins.
With the instinct of a bard, he saw at a glance that there must be many stories about the other party.
Wonderful story.
At the same time, Fuan, the dragon chooser, also raised his head and looked at Sven.
“It seems that I have found the target.”
Sven murmured, he was hesitating whether to order the dragon warriors behind him to attack and capture Fuan.
But the next moment, more than a hundred dragon warriors behind him roared like beasts, and then swarmed towards Fuan.
There was a stronger will, and they were given orders.
“So, can you really monitor me?”
“Not bad, not bad…”
Sven narrowed his eyes slightly. The dragon lord Drummond really had the ability to rely on the dragon warriors to observe. Fortunately, his previous actions did not reveal anything.
Ah——
On the other side, Fuan was angry because right in front of him, more than a dozen humans were easily torn apart. The bloody scene stimulated the dragon selector. He pulled out the rusty sword, and blood spilled instantly.
