Chapter 254 Returning to the Northland (4k [-]-in-[-])

"Your Majesty, you want to return to the Northland?"

Luke faced Lauren and asked.

"This is not only my wish, it is also the wish of Master Masafei, and it is the wish of all Leyton people."

Speaking of this, a burst of pride rose in Lauren's heart. In the past 11 years, he had established a vibrant kingdom, causing the people of Leyton to accept the laws of the true believers, and the true believers allowed the people of Leyton to establish their rule.

Luke fell into a long silence. He stared at Lauren with his bright golden eyes. Eleven years have passed. Compared with five or sixty-year-old priests, Luke can still be called a young priest. Lauren, however, can no longer be called the new king.

The Blessed One looked at Lauren's forehead. He was the one who baptized the northern native. Lauren was proud of his kingdom, and Luke was also proud of the church in the kingdom.

Luke has already been the Archbishop of the New Kingdom under the orders of the Pope and Laurent.

However, in Luke's ideal, it is far more than just a bishop in the southern land.

Luke advocated that the church participate in the secular world, and established an armed warrior society, not only to provide spiritual guidance, but also to provide shelter in the secular world.

And in this initiative, Luke gradually established an ultimate ideal.

This ideal will be represented by a church.

"In that northern land, there must be a magnificent church. There is no temple of any god, which can be closer to the god than it."

Luke looked at Lauren and said,
"Your Majesty, building a new church is also the wish of many true believers."

Lauren listened in his ear, thought for a while, and then said: "I have also heard the story of the king building a church in accordance with the wishes of the people in the southern land."

"God loves the world. In the past, I was thinking hard about the mysteries of heaven in the lecture hall, and that day I heard God's words with my own ears. I had many thoughts."

"People must have their own will, and God does not want to interfere too much. However, people's will is good or evil, wise or stupid. I think the duty of our priests is to guide people's will to the scriptures. that is the way of goodness.”

"A supremely magnificent church is necessary. The church should be built on a high place, on a hillside or on the top of a mountain. It is a place that connects man and God. We must be there to listen to the revelation from heaven and guide the way on earth."

Luke's ultimate ideal is the heavenly kingdom of faith on earth spread from that cathedral, which will be the closest to the heavenly kingdom of God, and will also be the land that most manifests people.

Hearing such an exposition, Lauren couldn't help but get excited.

Yes, as Luke said.

There is a need for a magnificent church, which shows the connection between man and God, and not only worships the gods, but also shows the meaning of man.

And the self who brings the gospel is the best embodiment of the meaning of human beings.

Great arrogance arose in Wang's heart.

The kingdom was established in his own hands and prospered because of himself. The true believers and the Leidon people coexisted peacefully, and everything was thriving.

After such a great achievement.

Unknowingly, he occasionally complacently equates himself with the meaning of human beings.

In the voice of the people shouting "the one who brings the gospel", the king often thinks that if there is no himself, no one in this world will question God.

Occasionally he rejoices that he is unique and crowned among the thousands of thunders of God.

Dozens of warships waved their flags in the wind and lined up in the port mightily.

Master Masafei, who is over 70 years old, puffed up his chest against the wind, and the hands of this old Leidon man were still full of strength.

Thinking about going back to his homeland soon, tears flowed from the corners of the eyes of the always resolute Master Masafei.

Compared with revenge, the long-cherished wish to return to his hometown has involved his emotions more these years.

Lauren, dressed in military uniform, slowly boarded the ship from the harbor. Master Ma Safei looked proudly at the former third prince, now His Majesty the King.

After Lauren took over the long sword and stood firmly on the warship, Master Masafei took out an old shield from the deck.

It was the battle shield of the Griffin Clan that he brought with him when he left the Northern Territory with the ship, and it was painted with a solemn and solemn clan emblem.

Nowadays, under the influence of the true religion, the people of Leyton often have many flashy decorations on their battle shields, but Master Ma Safei is quite disdainful of this. This old man who remembers all the traditions of the people of Leyton has a feeling for the battle shields from more than ten years ago. soft spot.

"Take this battle shield, hang it on the former War God Temple, and let the head of the patricide fall to the ground."

When Lauren walked up to him, Master Ma Safei handed over the old battle shield to Lauren.

Lauren nodded solemnly, took Master Masaphi's battle shield with both hands, and then held it up high, showing it in front of the Leidon people and the soldiers of the true religion.

Many old Garda warriors who were canonized as knights couldn't help crying when they saw the battle shield high in the air. Their sons who followed their father looked at the decorations they had seen in childhood and didn't understand why their father Weeping, the only thing I could do was stand aside silently, helping my father's trembling shoulders.

Dozens of warships stowed their anchors on the harbor, and after a while, they sailed from the warm harbor to the icy sea water. The family emblem of the Griffin clan and the royal emblem of the kingdom together formed a banner, proudly Standing in the sun that shines on the earth.

Thus, the warships of the New Kingdom of Leyton set off.

In recent days, Lauren noticed that there were more and more Leidon people fleeing for refuge, and even half of the clan fled to the New Kingdom in the southern land.

From the voices of these people, Lauren learned a shocking news.

After Suo Da recovered from his serious illness, he beheaded all the rebels in the kingdom, reunified the whole kingdom, and then Suo Da launched another war.

The target of this war is not the southern land, but the Deschanel Empire.

The latter was underprepared at first because of Suo Da’s sudden attack. Suo Da relied on his bravery and the warriors around him to capture several towns. Large-scale massacres, but the uprising did not subside, but intensified.

Even the nobles of Deschanel, who had surrendered to Suo Da at first, also began to join the ranks of resistance.

On the other hand, the Deschanel Empire quickly established a strong defense after the initial surprise attack. The Leidon people lacked siege technology and experience, and they could not do anything to those solid walls that were far taller than those of other countries. The sieges all ended in failure.

As time went by, Emperor Deschanel called up a large-scale army, and personally conquered the Leidon army led by Suo Da.

At the end of the war, it ended with Suo Da's surrender and donation.

After returning from the defeat, Suo Da became more and more violent. The dragon slayer he called could not accept his defeat, and instead poured out his anger on the kingdom.

Suo Da began to divide the clan from clan to clan, and drove the other clans except the cold wolf clan out of the capital, and distributed them to various towns, and then imposed heavy taxes and a large number of slaves on them every year.

The various clans were miserable, and an unprecedented civil war broke out with the Cold Wolf clan.

On the sea, the fleet of the New Kingdom set sail.

Chen Yi didn't pay attention to these, and she could foresee that Lauren's return to the Northern Land this time would be smoother than Lauren himself expected.

Lauren's next revenge, in his own eyes, is not as important as the days when he thought about the value of others in the past.

The god raised his hand, and the golden flame rose up.

This golden flame has the same flame core, but there are two flame tips, which seem to have not been fully fused.

God knows that this is because the old saying "heaven" and the old saying "salvation" have not yet merged and agreed.

I have not yet fully comprehended the meaning of "heavenly salvation".

"The King of Kings holds the honorable name 'King of Kings'. According to the descriptions of Al-Azhar and other pagans, He has already fully understood the meaning of 'King of Kings'."

Facing the pure gold flame in her hand, Chen Yi murmured.

The King of Kings is a perfect God.

Only when I fully comprehend "Heavenly Salvation" and fully grasp this supreme and holy name can I have the power to reverse when the judgment comes.

Thinking of the ancient holy capital that was under trial, Chen Yi unconsciously thought of Saint Venacana.

What kind of person is she?

Chen Yi can probably outline the image in her mind from the narration of others, but despite this, there are still many mysteries about Saint Vinacana.

Why did she become the last living saint, and what kind of chapters are she and herself in history.
Chen Yi couldn't help feeling curious.

He looked at the era of the ancient kingdom, and then gently closed his eyes.

God wants to step into the next history as quickly as possible.

The progress of returning to the Northland was exceptionally smooth.

At first, Luo Lun worried that Suo Da would set up many obstacles and sent a large army to encircle the warship.

However, to Lauren's surprise, whenever they arrived at a settlement of the Leidon people and showed their identities and kingdoms, they would be warmly welcomed by the locals.

In the new kingdom of the fertile land in the south, Lauren's reputation has already landed on the old kingdom of the north land one step ahead of him.

On the ground, Lauren heard clearer news.

All the clans who rebelled against Suo Da's rule greeted the exiled heir of the Griffin clan, Princess Vahali, and made the eldest daughter of Suo Da as the new king.

Lauren was very surprised. After learning about it from other people, he realized that Suo Da appointed his eldest daughter as the heir of the Griffin clan in order to unify the kingdom.

After Lauren's arrival, the clans that supported Princess Vahali heard the news, and they took the initiative to greet Lauren's warship, and discussed deposing Vahalli and handing over the throne to Lauren.

Naturally, Lauren readily accepted it.

Vahali was sent to Lauren's warship and placed under house arrest in the "chapel" inside the ship, where Luke and the monks accompanying the army held mass.

As the days went by, the warships came to the settlements of the Ledonites one after another, announcing the return of Roland, and many bards, carrying poems that had been compiled long ago, stepped off the warships and arrived at the It is praised by the people all over the country.

While Lauren was uniting all parts of the Old Kingdom, Luke and Princess Valhalli gradually fell in love.

In the days of the Old Kingdom, the clergy of the Church could still marry.

The history of the prohibition of marriage by clergy will be 20 years after Luke published that public letter. At that time, due to the growth of the secular power of the church, the Pope had to compromise with Emperor Deschanel and signed the prohibition of marriage by clergy. make.

Of course, this is a follow-up.

In the present time, an austere and simple wedding was held on Lauren's warship.

The original heir of the Griffin clan, Princess Vahali, married the Blessed Luke, and the priest who witnessed the marriage was a priest who did not leave a name in history.

Shortly after that,

The warships of the New Kingdom appeared majestically on the harbor of the royal capital.

The land in front of me had just recovered from the bloody battle. With the walls scorched by the flames and the muddy and broken streets, this capital city seemed to have just woken up from the devastation of life.

On the harbour, some Leidon people gradually surrounded them. They were dressed in rags, no different from the slaves in the city.

"The banner of King Laurent!"

A young Radon with good eyesight immediately recognized the flying banners on the warships.

"King Laurent, it's really King Laurent!"

"A kingdom in the fertile soil of the South!"

Afterwards, hundreds of Leidon people either trembled, or shed tears, and some even prostrated themselves on the ground, crying out for help.

Roland looked at these Leidon people of the Old Kingdom, his eyes were sour, and he was quite touched. Although his experience as a king told him that it was only caused by Suo Da's brutal rule. People in London will definitely not have such a big reaction.

"They must fear me, the one who brings the Gospel, in order to generate absolute surrender."

Lauren, who has been king for many years, said so to himself.

Luke beside him listened silently. For many years, Luke, who emphasized the church's secular power, had learned Roren's art of rule.

The former third prince Luo Lun accepted them. He ordered people to send food from the boat, and then asked the guards to find a way. He was going to organize soldiers to surround Suo Da in the capital.

The harbor of the king's capital can only accommodate more than ten warships. Even so, the combat power of the soldiers on and off these more than ten warships should not be underestimated.

Among them are many veterans who have fought many battles.

Lauren looked up at the royal palace in the distance. He said it was a royal palace, but it was actually just a huge longhouse, like an upside-down warship, and it was far from comparable to the castle of the king of the southern land.

Then, Lauren looked towards the Temple of War God, which stood at the highest point in the capital. His gaze was like an eagle, as if he saw Suo Da's battle shield hanging above the Temple of War God.

The well-groomed army raised its banners high and suddenly appeared on the streets of the royal capital.

This is a phenomenon worthy of mobilization by the city's defenders in any place.

However, Lauren saw any defenders in the city dispatched, only a few Garda warriors organized scattered resistance.

Those Garda warriors are all from the cold wolf clan.

When Lauren arrived in front of the longhouse, he finally saw the organized guards.

What surprised Lauren even more was that the guards who were supposed to guard the king saw the army of the New Kingdom approaching from a distance, and hurriedly dropped their weapons.

They sent messengers to express their surrender.

Lauren was very puzzled, he had a feeling of being in the fog.

So he got off his horse and ordered the elite to step into the longhouse with him.

In the wide long house, beside the blazing fire, lay the corpses of men and women in disorder. They were either priests or servants. Lauren saw several familiar elders of the Cold Wolf clan.

Under the stench of blood, Lauren raised the torch in his hand and walked forward.

Suo Da's strong body lay down on the long table, and there was a flagon beside the table.

At this moment, the former dragon slayer's body was stiff, and even though Lauren approached, he didn't have the slightest reaction.

Lauren picked up Suo Da's head, the latter's expression was distorted and weird.

After a moment of daze, Lauren suddenly felt that everything had lost its sense of reality.

Soda is dead.

At this time, someone outside the door reported:
"Your Majesty, the guards said that Suo Da was drunk, not only poisoned himself, but also poisoned others."
