Chapter 35 The Power of the Holy Maiden
...
Just as Wu Hui used the Eye of God to observe the situation in the square, the civilians gathered in the square because of the propaganda of the Holy See were also talking.
Near the altar, several civilians were gathering together and discussing in a low voice.
"This sudden Viagra Holy See was in a hurry to summon us as soon as it attacked Gruburg. Could it be that we would have to increase the tax?" A farmer was worried with a bitter face. "The tax for this quarter has just been paid. If I pay it again, my family will not even be able to afford black bread."
"At least you can eat oats and I can't do it." The herdsman next to him scratched his head, full of sorrow. "If they want to take back the pasture, I will have no place to herd sheep, and the sheep in the pen might starve to death."
"After you have sheep, even if you can't raise it, you'll get a profit. What I'm most worried about is that they will take back the rented land." Another farmer was worried, "At least 70% of my land was rented from Master Gondeyar. If they take back the land, my family wouldn't even be able to eat oatmeal."
"I would rather hope that the situation will stabilize quickly. Don't just calm down here. After a while, Master Connor brought his troops back, and we will be scared again..."
As they were talking, the few people couldn't help but sigh, and their expressions became more and more anxious.
On the edge of the square, a young woman with hair tied up on tiptoe and lying on her husband's shoulders to barely see the altar in the center of the square, but she was still happy. Her young and pretty face was full of curiosity and excitement: "Abram, what do you think of His Highness, who is summoning so many people to come?"
"I don't know." The young man who was lying on her looked at her softly with his eyebrows and his eyes were indescribable, "But I know that His Highness the Saint will not do meaningless things. There must be something very important to do today."
The young woman gave him a blank look after hearing this: "You still have to say this?"
These two were the newlyweds who were pretending to be by Katherine and Langdon three days ago, Alia and Abram.
Not far away, several men from strong auras, obviously from military backgrounds were mixed in the crowd, and were also looking at the altar in the center.
Baqun's height allows them to easily see everything on the altar, but it still cannot relieve their confusion.
"Master, what do they want to do?"
Finally, a strong man couldn't help but speak, his honest face was full of confusion.
His words expressed the thoughts of many people. Several people who were walking with him unconsciously turned their heads to look at the middle-aged knight in the lead, with their expressions similarly confused.
They came from a knight's manor near Gru Town, which was nominally one of the three knight teams led by Gundyar. The middle-aged knights led by Gundyar are one of the three Lord Knights under Baron Gundyar, Knight Horn.
Those who followed him were his entourage knights, and his elites from his direct line.
"After capturing the Gruburg, Immediately summoned the civilians in the Gruburg town area, with only three purposes." Knight Horn looked calm, and exuded an unusual calmness in the noisy surrounding environment. "One, tell the world the news of Gruburg's change of ownership; two, win over the hearts of the people; three, deter possible enemies so that they dare not act rashly."
"A possible enemy?" A entourage subconsciously repeated it, then raised his eyebrows, "We include it?"
Knight Horn didn't say anything, so he was the default.
The expressions of several entourage cavalry were suddenly a little strange, as if they were trying to say something, but they were not easy to speak.
After a while, a cavalry pretended to be nothing and said, "However, their equipment is really good. They should be able to defeat Gru Fort, and their strength should not be bad. In addition, the other two Knight Manors should not dare to act rashly."
“Hahahaha~Yes~Yes~”
Wu Hui was high above, adjusting the perspective of the Eye of God, and bringing everyone's reactions into his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
It seems that Gondeyar is indeed not very popular. Look, not many civilians in the square care about his situation.
Of course, not many people care about the authenticity of him, the God of Light. They only care about themselves.
This is the truest human nature. Many shallow believers will believe in or doubt whether the God of Light exists.
Suddenly.
The noisy crowd in the light curtain stirred up.
Wu Hui adjusted his perspective and saw Catherine walking out from the side with six other clergymen. His steps were not fast, but his momentum was particularly sacred and solemn.
After a few steps, the seven people walked to the feet of the statue of the Light.
There are several steps under the feet of the statue, one step up, and the last level directly leads to the feet of the statue. You can kiss the feet of the statue when you lower your head. This is specially used for praying for clergy.
Susan and Landon and other six crazy believers clergymen joined forces to climb the first step and stopped going up. They turned around and lined up, respectfully bowing to Catherine.
Under their guard, Catherine climbed up the steps and slowly climbed up the higher stairs. Then she turned around, slowly took off the hood on her head, revealing her beautiful face.
After taking the Gruburg, the girl seemed to let go of her thoughts, her breath became deeper, her behavior became less impatient, and she became more stable.
At this moment, she stood on the stage, and her powerful aura was released and she immediately became the center of everyone.
Wu Hui's eyes fell on her unconsciously.
Under the altar, thousands of civilians unconsciously looked up at her.
"Thank you all for coming to watch the ceremony. I, the Holy Maiden of Light, I would like to represent the Holy Church of Light, thank you for your arrival." Catherine suddenly spoke, her voice hitting jade like flowing water. Under the expansion of the magic, it instantly spread throughout the square. "Below, the ceremony officially begins, please keep quiet."
In the sun, her brand new nun's clothes were flawless, as pure as an angel's wings. The white hooded robe on her body swayed slightly in the wind, and the mysterious golden divine pattern flowed, holy and powerful.
Six crazy clergymen, including Susan, Harry, and Langdon, were wearing brand new white robes and shiny mail standing at her feet, as if the stars were arching the moon, making her aura stronger and stronger.
Behind the seven people, the towering statue of the god is as jade-like texture, and it is sacred and majestic. In the sky, the flag of the god with white background and golden patterns is flying in the wind, roaring.
A solemn and solemn atmosphere spreads with the altar as the center, covering the entire square.
Under the influence of this atmosphere, even Wu Hui was unconsciously calmed down, and the civilians in the square stopped talking unconsciously.
In an instant, the entire square became quiet.
Under the gaze of everyone, Catherine slowly turned around, knelt down at the feet of the statue of Light, clasped her hands and began to pray.
"Catherine, the Holy Maiden of Light, led all the clergy in the Holy See here to pray devoutly, praying that my Lord will allow me to wait for the judgment of the heretic Gandyar in this day and today."
The moment the sound rang, Wu Hui keenly noticed that the faith channel belonging to Catherine began to tremble. With his attention, her voice also sounded in his consciousness at the same time.
Here it is ~
This drama that has been planned for a long time is finally about to begin.
