Don't call me evil god

Chapter 134: The Aristocracy Act

Pioneering Nobility Act.

A new law was issued by the king of the Kingdom of Reyak himself a few years ago.

The reason for the emergence of this bill was that, with the continuous granting of fiefs by successive kings, in fact, most of the land in the Kingdom of Reyak had been awarded to nobles who swore allegiance to the king.

In recent years, the kingdom has reached a point where there is nothing left to seal.

There was not enough land and too many nobles.

The previous alternative was the enactment of the "Manorial Nobility" and the "Nobility Succession Act".

This was the case with the fathers of Pete and Gail. Although they were ennobled, they had no fiefdoms and could only receive manors granted by the king. Their descendants must meet the conditions of the "Act of Noble Succession" to inherit their fathers' titles.

In comparison, pioneer aristocrats are the third type of aristocracy that emerged after the "feudal aristocrats" and "manor aristocrats".

The bill stipulates that if one demarcates and develops a territory outside the existing borders of the kingdom, and the number of subjects meets the requirements and the territory has existed for more than one year, one can become a hereditary noble recognized and canonized by the king, and enjoy autonomy within the territory!
The larger the territory, the more people there are, and the higher the noble title that can be conferred.

Starting from Viscount, it is possible to go up to Grand Duke!

The bill's rewards are extremely attractive.

The reality is also very touching.

The reality is that after the introduction of this bill, up to this day, there are not many people who have successfully been granted the title of viscount, let alone duke.

This means going beyond the border to open up new land and facing constant invasion from monsters.

How to ensure the security of the territory?
How to ensure that the needs of the people are met?

Every year there are “brave” people who try to challenge the pioneering spirit, but they all end up in a miserable situation.

It was good enough that he fled back to the kingdom in disgrace;
The even more unfortunate ones are those who are directly attacked by monsters and their territory is breached, and they die outside.

……

If Pete had not received Nowen's attention and believed in the God of Knowledge, he would not have even considered becoming a pioneer noble.

Just wait until you graduate and go back to your hometown, Chim Town, then find a nice girl to marry and prepare to start training little Chinar.

With his faith in the God of knowledge and the guidance of blessings, the flame of ambition slowly grew in Pete's heart when he was in Green Harbor.

What is the most difficult thing about pioneering beyond the border?
The answer is undoubtedly to fight against the invasion of monsters!

The adventurers took the initiative to attack, picking up lone monsters and beating them up.

The main theme is to bully the weak, the big to the small, and the many to the few.

To open up new land beyond the borders means to defend a fixed area.

What matters at this time is hard power!

There are not enough professionals under his command, and it is impossible to defend the territory with just a group of farmers and ordinary craftsmen!

This is why few people could become pioneer nobles in the past.

Those who can recruit enough professionals are often great nobles in the kingdom and do not need to take the path of pioneering nobles.

Those who want to become pioneering nobles do not have the strength or ability to do so.

After Pete realized that the guidance of the God of Knowledge could greatly lower the threshold for believers to become professionals, he thought about pioneering the nobility.

He doesn't need to recruit ready-made professionals.

Because believers of the God of Knowledge can become professionals through their own efforts!
In extreme cases, everyone can become a soldier! At least a level 1 professional!
After the campaign to eliminate the Bloodfang Gang in Green Harbor came to an end, Pete was looking for the most cost-effective place to choose as his intended territory if he wanted to expand beyond the border after returning to the Kingdom of Reyak. With the oracle of Norwen, Pete no longer had to worry about it.

The location of the "Creation Altar" in the main quest is just outside the border of the Reyak Kingdom.

Isn’t this a ready-made territory location?

You can not only complete the tasks assigned by the God of Knowledge, but also use it to expand your territory!
Moreover, thinking about the name of the Creation Altar and the words in the mission description, Pete had a vague premonition.

He felt that the God of Knowledge seemed to be guiding the believers, intentionally hoping that they would go beyond the border and carry out activities around the "Altar of Creation"!

Pete, who has always scored full marks in reading comprehension and interpretation of the oracle of the God of Knowledge, is very confident!

This time he definitely predicted the will of God. There is no doubt that he is on the right path!

……

Pete explained the Noble Development Act and his own plans to Brandon, Reina, and Miranda, who didn't know much about the Kingdom's Noble Law.

“I think the Lord is guiding us to find the Altar of Creation, and it must be more than just finding it.”

"It also says at the end of the main quest that subsequent quests and rewards will be unlocked after completing the quest."

"Whether in Green Harbor or Ceylon Territory, the power of other god churches is deeply rooted. The God of Knowledge is an old god, and it may not be possible to coexist peacefully with them."

Pete was not stupid, he also realized that the Seeking Knowledge Sect would steal believers and even faith from other churches.

"If we can build a territory that truly belongs to the Seeking Knowledge Sect around the Altar of Creation, we won't have to worry about these problems!"

“This must be the will of the Lord that he really wants to guide us.”

Reina was the first to respond eagerly to Pete's proposal: "I'm willing to join you! Helping those in need is what I want to do!"

"If the territory is successfully built, there will definitely be many places that need to be constructed, and we will definitely need a good tavern! Then we can use the instant messenger to send a message and ask them to come here as well!"

Brandon adjusted the position of the greatsword on his back and said with a confident smile: "My requirements are not high. If we succeed, I will carve a statue of myself and put it in the territory, leaving behind my deeds for people to sing about!"

Miranda hesitated.

She is a believer in the God of Light and also believes in the God of Knowledge.

From her standpoint, she very much hopes that the churches of the two gods can recognize each other.

Because of her faith in the God of Knowledge, she also gained a lot. She mastered two of the five blessing spells of the second-level priest in just a few days.

This was something that was impossible to do in the past when we simply believed in the God of Light.

But when they were in Green Harbor, she and her companions tacitly agreed not to report the affairs of the God of Knowledge and the Knowledge Cult to the new bishop, Rayonk Eugene.

Because after the incident with Bishop Skyter, Miranda was a little reluctant to admit that she found that the God of Light and the Church of Light... did not seem to be completely equated.

This was different from her previous understanding of the Glowing God Cult.

What the church does in the name of the Glory may actually go against the teachings of the Glory.

It was for this reason that she chose to temporarily leave the Crusaders.

Miranda hopes to see the outside world with her own eyes.

See what the real Glowing God Religion is like and what Glowing doctrine she should follow.
