But what was strange was that on that smooth, faceless face that made people feel terrified after seeing it too many times, there were two lines of blood-red tear marks on the left and right cheeks respectively.

Myrmidia has an appearance that has been passed down through the ages, and there is no taboo about "not erecting idols."

The goddess's face disappeared, and then the statue shed tears, tears of blood.

Strictly speaking, this was the second time... The first time was in Miragliano. After Al had conquered the city, the Grand Master refused to surrender and resolutely resisted. In order to avoid causing more unnecessary bloodshed by killing a stubborn and pious old man, Al came up with a special idea:

He ordered Patriarch Gregory, the Southern Eagle of the reorganized church, to try to deal with the stubborn Eastern Patriarch in the name of religion by inviting theological debates.

In the end, it was just as he expected. The Eastern leader, who was stubborn and had a hot temper, and was somewhat similar to the former "Wolkma the Ruthless", was no match for Gregory, who had the blessing of omniscience, in terms of eloquence. In the end, he was completely enraged and chose to settle the outcome by duel.

This has always been a tradition among Southerners, and no matter how special a person's status is, they cannot avoid it.

Then, even if he lost the duel and was killed, the Tyrells would have nothing to say.

Then the Visconti leader was pierced through the chest with a spear. Al didn't cheat in this regard, or rather, his cheating methods were not used. He only appeared once during the entire Patriotic War, and that was in an Imperial calendar. Celestine, the mother of Celestine, a Sigmar follower who gave birth to the evil child, obviously had no blessings or protection for her apostles.

On the night after the duel, the statue of the goddess in the great temple of Miragliano also shed tears of blood, but at that time the Aiel army was stationed in the city of Mi, so it did not cause much commotion.

In addition, under Al's behind-the-scenes manipulation, this feat was gradually exaggerated, so people gradually regarded it as a legend used to boost morale, or a miracle fabricated by monks.

And today, it happened again in Remas.

It happened just before the ceremony of enthroning the prince and princess.

Chapter 95: "Mom!"

It was impossible for Al not to connect the dots.

The last incident could be said to be a coincidence. To the outside world, it could also be manipulated behind the scenes to make it look like something the anti-Double-Headed Eagle forces had done to deceive people. But if it happened again, it wouldn't be good. Not to mention that Al was on guard, the mere exposure of this incident would have a huge negative impact on the situation in Tyrell, which had just stabilized.

Fortunately, the priests of Remas put up a strong resistance during the southern expedition, and Ai'er exiled them all to their homeland or the Withered Swamp. The entire Great Temple of Remas was basically replaced by his own people.

When the statue's face disappeared and shed tears of blood, the Five Seals, the Reformed priests and the temple guards immediately blocked the Pantheon. Fortunately, due to the areas that have been under strong control in recent times, such as Miragliano and Remas, the original war churches have almost all been replaced by the Reformed priests, and the churches and temples have also been taken over by the latter.

They have to check all kinds of classics and magical instruments, and even have to rebuild statues, delete murals and reliefs, so for the time being, they do not accept outsiders to worship. If there are any, they can only do so in the outer area. In addition, with today's Senate meeting, most attention has been drawn there. In Remas' eyes, the great temple now seems a bit special, and it is even more deserted than usual.

Otherwise, it is estimated that some people will have to be sent to some camps in Pina Forest or Inara Mountains.

......

The members of the Council of Scholars and the priests of the wisent horned beasts have already examined everything in the temple carefully. There is no problem, and there is not even any obvious trace of divine power. On the contrary, the priestly instruments and divine statues of gods like Mannan and Shalaya still have the aura of divine power. However, the Great Temple is now a hexagram. Even if Al desecrates the statues of gods here like he did before, he does not have to worry about being discovered and then being punished by God through the Internet - but he will not do that.

But this phenomenon is very bad, and Al has to be vigilant about it.

If this happens a few more times in other places in the future, it will be very detrimental to his integration of Tyrell.

You know, the reason why he was able to conquer Estalia and Tyrell so obediently was largely because:

Myrmidia was the dominant faith in the south and occupied the mainstream, but it mysteriously lost contact after the Greenskin War began. The priests were unable to use their magic or bestow blessings, and protection was no longer granted... Even today, when the gods' interference in the mortal world has been greatly reduced, this is still a very unreasonable thing.

Even for priests like Shalaya and Lanold, who are not as powerful as Myrmidia, they still possess the power granted by the corresponding gods and may also obtain the blessings of believing in gods. However, Myrmidia seems to no longer interfere in the mortal world, and even the power bestowed in the past has become dim.

The spiritual impact of this on the southerners is immeasurable. The Church of War is the only dominant one, but it does nothing. Aiur is rising strongly, conquering cities, but its enemies cannot produce a banner to inspire them to fight to the death... But if Myrmidia suddenly reappears, and the believers regain the power to cast divine spells, and blessings are bestowed again, guiding the believers to oppose the invasion of Aiur and the Five Seals, then the whole of Tyrell will at least be in flames.

Even if it was just a strange phenomenon of "the goddess weeping blood", it could cause a great sensation among the people. People who still doubted the double-headed eagle might regard it as the manifestation of Myrmidia and the will of God weeping for the people. They might keep silent and live one day at a time; or they might be desperate and launch a holy war uprising and armed protection even if they only had hoes, pitchforks, and hatchets as weapons... And these, in Al's eyes, were all:

"Unnecessary blood!"

I came to this land not to start a war, but to seek eternal happiness for mankind!

But this matter involves the realm of gods. At least for Al at the moment, there is only one way to best resolve it.

[Mom~!!!]

Al howled in his own chat room—the spiritual space.

In his "head", there are four great gods active every day, one is a deep diver, and one pops up from time to time to make trouble and then slips away.

[Now, you should call me 'father']

Before the other three could say anything, a voice that Al was very familiar with spoke.

【? ? ? 】

Al didn't understand it at first.

After I realized what was happening, I was shocked.

It's quite normal.

This matter is unremarkable.

[Didn’t you say last time that it wouldn’t have any impact? Why do I feel like something is not right…]

As for Mirmidia, Al couldn't say much, but the last person he knew of who had seen a statue weeping was a big, golden-skinned guy.

Don't let him experience the phenomenon of "everything goes to extremes and then declines".

[Of course, how could mom fool you~]

[Mirmidia is now powerless to do anything about the world. Isn't it normal for the people of a lost country to shed tears for everything they have lost? ]

Happy Dad answered Al's doubts.

Because he conquered Tyrell, the Blood Mother's attitude towards the cubs who performed well has increased recently, so she rarely shows up and sent a message to Ai'er.

[As long as you still hold the Legion, even if the Spearbearer himself comes, you will only fail. I will give you a gift, so you don’t have to fear.]

The grumpy mother still loves Al.

The confidence in his words and deeds all revealed a feeling of "I'll protect you" "Don't be afraid, if she dares to come, just do it! Mom is here!"

This kind of very strong, even tough, motherhood that makes it difficult to tell whether to call the father or the mother is actually what Al likes very much.

Although she is bossy and disappointed with you, she is the first one to refuse when someone bullies you and will just roll up her sleeves and do the work like a strong and protective big sister, which really appeals to Al's sexual quirks.

It’s just that the whipping from the hot-tempered mother is sometimes a little too painful, and it’s easy for the mortal kid to be beaten to a state of disarray.

[I think so too. That Media is just a nobody, a nobody. The Lord of all armies and victories is only my mother God.]

Seeing the Blood Mother speak, Al immediately took advantage of the situation and started licking!

Great praise for Blood Mother!

He fought through Tyrell, and his gains and victories along the way were countless, all of which were dedicated to the Mother of Fury, Big Mom, in the name of blood sacrifice. Because the Blood Mother was the first to show her existence, Aiel gave her a "honorable title" in his heart. Of course, the other three also had their own titles, highlighting a fair, Byzantine court title.

After praising the goddess mother, Al immediately began to ask for benefits. It was difficult to hide his thoughts, at least not to these four goddesses who peeked into the mortal world through him every day.

[Mom, I don't have enough manpower to take down Tyrell, please give me some help - don't send people like Valentine and Two-Headed Bird! ]

Strictly speaking, for the Blood Mother, except for the three goddesses other than Joy, if Al has something to ask for, it is better to be direct than to be evasive. He likes retro and uses the Aurora set, but it is a bit asking for trouble to do this to the goddess or her own mother.

Especially the blood mother.

He has a "hot" personality and is straightforward. If he likes someone, he likes them, and if he wants to beat someone up, he will beat you up.

Now that Ai'er has conquered Tyrell, he has gained a lot of reputation with his hot-tempered mother, and he takes the opportunity to make some requests and ask for some benefits. It is very likely that the Blood Mother will agree.

And exclude the two, or three? The weird types assigned to Al in advance, to ensure that this place will not become an entertainment place for the big demons to have fun and relax.

Nowadays, the overall demonic situation in the mortal world is stable, the hostile chaos forces have greatly declined, and after the gods have gone into hiding, there are very few particularly powerful legendary figures. The demons in the camp of the Four Mother Goddesses do not have to worry about encountering powerful enemies while walking in the mortal world, and then being exiled to the Soul Furnace for a lottery.

Every time Al saw the bad Valentine, and the two-headed bird that ruined his hobby of "white dragon fish clothes, dragon travels the world" through a screenwriter, the blue-feathered Noah and the golden-feathered Si Ka, a pair of all-knowing demons who sabotaged each other, he had a little doubt about whether he could win the end moment:

He has not seen the Chaos Demon Army of the Four Mothers and other great demons yet. As the situation on the mortal battlefield steadily progresses, he is somewhat confident.

However, he knew nothing about the confrontation in the Chaos Realm for the time being. He only caught a glimpse of it in a nightmare in the past, and saw the boundless world-destroying army led by the Three-Eyed King.

The terrifying pressure that he could feel even through the dream illusion was like a mountain range of Inara pressing on El's heart, but the distance was still far enough for him to entertain himself and play the game of palace life.

[The war is still going on, and there is no suitable person; I will give you a team of craftsmen as a blessing, and hold a ceremony on the battlefield where you have achieved the most fruitful results in this war]

[One more thing... Alina, she has not yet entered my realm. Let her come to my throne and present her victory. I will reward her with promotion.]

The Blood Mother promised Al a sponsorship.

But at the same time, the centaur girl Alina was also mentioned.

Chapter 96: The Path of the God-Chosen Champion

The champion warrior of the Blood Mother, the mad centaur, and El's first bond.

She is a killing god who wears heavy armor and slaughters thousands of soldiers on the battlefield; she is also El Meiyan's centaur adoptive mother and the object of his filial piety.

The connection between the two began at the abandoned Revelers' Camp on the outskirts of the Pina Forest, to the laying of the foundation of the clear spring, and all the way to when Ai'er started his wars. In fact, he didn't have much of a "mother-son" relationship, and it was more of a centaur wife who accompanied him the longest. She would go into battle in almost all important battles and fight for her adopted son.

As for Al, he would usually charge behind his adoptive mother before and after the war as a comfort and reward.

After Al gained an entire kingdom, he brought the Centaur to the palace and "honored her as the Queen Mother" and shared the glory with her, but this did not seem to mean much to the Centaurs. For Alina, perhaps being able to indulge in pleasure freely with Al in the Pina Forest would make her happier than being "confined" to the palace.

El's adoptive mother traveled the world after killing the chief and leaving the tribe. At that time, she was ignorant of the outside world. Because of the rejection of her tribe, she became stubborn and wanted to find the "Blood God" who could appreciate her and offer her faith. Then, under the influence of a red-skinned aunt who also sat on the toilet (delete) and the throne, she embarked on a path of challenging powerful enemies.

I have slain giant beasts, challenged powerful enemies, served as a mercenary and participated in large-scale mixed operations, and been a wanted criminal hunted by bounty catchers and witch hunters;

I've hacked through greenskin warbands in the Badlands, rolled over savage Skeleton Tomb Kings in Nehekhara, and hunted down monster spawn of unspeakable evil in the Colonies...

He fought all the way with such ferocity, but after returning to Estalia, he almost defeated a Knight of the Round Table who Alina called a "strong enemy". Doesn't it seem not so special?

If this was before the Great War, even before the Maelstrom disintegrated, with this kind of record, Al had no doubt that Alina might have directly obtained the "Affirmation of the Skull" after a certain battle and was promoted to the God-chosen Champion on the spot, becoming another great demon K who would bring endless blood rain in the name of Khorne in the endless bloody battle between the mortal world and the Chaos Realm.

But perhaps it was after chaos declined and the gods disappeared that human rationality and sensibility were free to develop without restraint.

Alina, a violent centaur who was supposed to kill and kill to prove her truth, was not like the legendary characters that often appeared in the past, who simply followed the same path to the end:

Good is good, evil is evil; causing trouble is causing trouble, upholding good is upholding good, and doing evil is doing evil...unless one falls into evil or good, or one is "forced to do it" like Al's stepmother instructs one to be chosen by God to do trouble.

And there are many things that Al likes.

For example, the contrast of cuteness.

For example, when smelting copper, he is still the one smelting it.

For example, he is arrogant but not spoiled, and he is strong and straightforward.

All kinds of things.

After the battle of Bilbao in Al, Alina basically hadn't picked up a knife seriously for a long time.

Only occasionally would he drag Al to the central wilderness to hunt down the greenskin war gangs or wild beasts that Al had intentionally preserved and not completely eliminated.

Maybe in people's eyes, it is normal that the country is at peace, weapons are put into storage and horses are released to the mountains, and famous generals and warriors have no place to use their skills, but...

Alina is the chosen one of the Chaos evil god known as "Blood Mother" and a champion warrior. Even though the beliefs of the Fury Mother are not as extreme and bloodthirsty as the Chaos followers of the authentic Blood God, Alina spends her days leisurely in the Golden Palace with her adopted son, and has basically nothing to do with courage, glory and "struggle" all day long.

Of course, if you insist, maybe "palace fighting" is another form of competition? Relying on wisdom and strategy to win may also please the Blood Mother (crossed out), but given the stability of El's harem, no one would challenge Alina's authority. Alina herself is too lazy to exert her so-called power as the "master of the harem". She has no interest in these things and even has no concept of them.

It was enough for her to have an adopted son and the goat girl Elune to keep close to her. At most, she would occasionally compete with (and beat up) the aggressive cubs like Hera and Alia, and educate her own cubs.

If we look at it from the perspective of a "mother" and "wife", there is nothing wrong with this. The son is filial and the husband is virtuous, and they are in the highest position. How perfect.

But for a soldier, it was too wasteful.

If Alina had not been forced to go with the army on this southern expedition, "seizing" the pony's legion, and defeating the Tyrell coalition in the battles of Trantio and Remas, proving that she had not wasted her strength and will, perhaps Aiur would have rejected the Blood Mother's request at the first opportunity, worried that Alina would not be able to pass the Blood Mother's trial.

The Blood Mother has a sharp tongue and a saw-toothed heart. Even though she would bless her son, open back doors, and make concessions, she would not let him off the hook on this matter that concerns her "God-chosen champion."

God's Chosen - Champion, these two words that Alina possesses are separate titles and not used together.

The champion is the most capable one in a group. Even the most capable goblin among a hundred goblins can declare himself the "champion" of this group of goblins. In the tribe, it is undoubtedly Alina, and the Chosen One is anyone who is blessed by the gods and can be called the Chosen One of Khorne or the Chosen One of Slaanesh.

If these two words were combined into one title, it would be quite extraordinary, "God's Chosen Champion" - the most powerful champion warrior chosen by all the Blood Mother Gods.

Alina will be summoned by the Blood Mother and enter Her realm. She will have to survive eighty-eight battles in the ever-burning blazing land and endless battlefields of the Blood Mother's realm, and face the challenges of eighty-eight of the Blood Mother's chosen ones and champion warriors.

Finally, he climbed up the Stairs of Glory and challenged the incarnation of God, the Blood Mother Demon, with his mortal body to gain the qualification to climb up.

She would personally bring all the heads and honors she had obtained along the way to the Iron Throne, and present them to the one who stood tall and watched and encouraged all the fighting and struggles, "Mother of the Brave, God of War, Mother of Blood, God of Fury..."

Alina will be upgraded and become a demon prince whose origin is not obvious in her current way. She is the Blood Mother's first chosen champion in the mortal world, with eight blessings, eight protections, and eight favors!

As long as one is a devout follower, no one will resist this challenge of ascending to heaven. Even if one dies in it, his deeds and past will be engraved on the Stairs of Glory, and his glory will last forever in the world. He will be reincarnated as a demon warrior in the Chaos Realm, a member of the Blood Mother Army, and participate in the Eternal Blood Battle to gain glory and be promoted to a higher level.

And for Al...

Great—if Alina succeeds.

But it’s not necessary?

He already had an army of 100,000 men, sweeping across the southern country, sending troops east and west, north and south, and no one could stop him. His will was carried through from top to bottom, and he was the lord of millions.

To let his adoptive mother, the centaur girl whom he loved and liked from the beginning, go through such a risky and hellish trial, just to gain a higher level of power...

[Let's continue talking about Mirmidia first.] El changed the subject and tried to adopt the "dove" tactic towards the goddess, while preparing for the Blood Mother to blast the microphone in his ear.
