Lord of Lowland

Chapter 357

When Alonso asked Priest Alonso about his hesitation in the carriage, Priest Alonso said disapprovingly: "Knight of Destiny, I can tell you something that you don't know at all. For thousands of years, Come on, there have been countless coups between the Dawn Temple, not to mention the bloody battle between us and Chen Xishendian of the Eruk Empire, even the two factions of the same temple in the same country. There have been at least 3 The ground agents of the Lord of the Dawn were killed in front of the tallest statue in the Temple of the Dawn, and the people who killed them, their successors, were all great priests of light who were hailed as the greatest believers of the Dawn in history. "

Alonso's words shocked Cecil from ear to ear. The priest of light is the ultimate evaluation of a priest after his death. This kind of evaluation is not something that can be made by temple personnel or kings. Only the Lord of Dawn agrees, and Cecil never expected this kind of result: "Is it true that the chief priests who were killed were all hypocrites or rebels, so these people are just for the Lord of Dawn?" God does things?"

Alonso shook his head with a smile: "I thought so at first, but after seeing the secret file of the Dawn Temple, I realized that it was not the case at all. The God of Dawn doesn't care whether you are right or wrong, he just He cares about the loyalty of believers. Sometimes he even hopes that his believers can split into two factions. The believers who split into two factions want to overwhelm each other, so they must be more devout than others, so split believers are more powerful than unified believers. The church is more pious and fanatical. The power of the Lord of Dawn will increase faster, because believers are also one of the power sources of this god.

Cecil couldn't help but shudder after hearing this. He didn't expect that the God of Dawn, the most powerful god of light, would also be a guy who only pursues power. It seems that the reason why gods are called gods is just Because they have huge power, their morality and greed are probably no different from ordinary people.

But now seeing that High Priest Alonso had mastered the situation in the entire Dawn Temple so quickly, with the whole process taking less than an hour, Cecil couldn't help but admire the High Priest's ability.Although Akria's foundation is shallow, if the great priest Alonso had not won the hearts of the people when he was in power, he would not have mastered all the power of the Dawn Temple so easily.

Now, all the people from the Dawn Temple have entered the Dawn Hall, and all the priests are kneeling in front of the huge statue of the God of Dawn to pray.Looking at these priests who were praying devoutly, Cecil suddenly felt like he was in another world. He remembered the day when he knelt here and was inaugurated as a paladin. In fact, that was not that long ago.

Just as Cecil was watching the priests praying from behind, the great priest Alonso came over: "Cecil, now is not the time to watch the excitement, we must go to the palace, the eldest prince may have led troops into the palace now." After arriving at the palace, the king's imperial guards may have already fought against the three cavalry regiments who took refuge in the prince. We must rush there. Except for the leader Erwin, almost all the upper echelons of the imperial guards are paladins. , we must indicate the position of the Temple of Dawn, and then let these paladins turn their backs, no matter how strong Erwin is, I am afraid that it is difficult for one person to do anything."

"Don't we need to catch more people?" Cecil asked puzzled when he saw that only he and Collins accompanied the high priest to the battlefield in front of the palace.

"The Temple of Dawn is very important to this continent. I don't want the temple to really get involved in the battle. For the eldest prince, we don't need to provide him with combat power. We only need to be able to provide theoretical support for his succession in a moral sense. Even his minimum requirement is that the Dawn Temple should not stand against him. On the contrary, I think he does not want the priests of the Dawn Temple to fight in person. Priests are better to be high and respected." Alonso When the high priest said this, he was quite self-deprecating.Being able to joke with him like this fully demonstrates the trust that High Priest Alonso has in him.

Cecil asked curiously at this time: "Who is Erwin? What is his origin? Is he really strong?"

"Erwin is a rare genius. He is not a noble but can be born to be a revelation. In history, the only person who can be stronger than him is Lanteros, who is the Oracle Knight of the Temple of the Brave. This is different from the Knight of Destiny. With comparable professions, his strength has approached the peak of a warrior, and it can even be said that it is difficult to find a comparable opponent in the entire continent."

"It's hard to find, it doesn't mean you can't find it, it means that other countries will have such talents, why didn't such talents show up during the fierce battle between the multinational coalition forces at the Gate of Hell?" Cecil asked. ,
"Of course, the Eluk Empire also has such strong fighters, and the number may even be more than ours. As for why it didn't appear, isn't it obvious? Even if they fight, it is difficult for them to resist Obex, because after all, they are not on the same level. The second is that when this kind of abyssal lord comes, the main god will not ignore it. Otherwise, with so many opportunities for thousands of years, the main plane will have been trampled down by powerful abyssal creatures. Since the main god will definitely come out to take care of things , then of course it is better to preserve the top combat power of each country."

"Humph, intrigue." Cecil said gloomily.

"This is a common problem of human beings for thousands of years, and there is no need to change it." The priest Alonso said with a smile.

Cecil looked at the high priest who had the accident, and only smiled at him and said: "But high priest, what you said just now is wrong, this Erwin is not the pinnacle of warriors, even those who are born as civilians are better than him." Not only Lanteros, but also me." Cecil said confidently.

Priest Alonso glanced at him with satisfaction: "Yes, I almost forgot about you, I think you are a powerful knight who may surpass the paladins of all ages, and even surpass the Knights of Destiny of all ages, but your father is a Lord knight, although you can't be called a noble, but it is also a position that ordinary people envy, and there is also a royal enshrinement, so you can't say that you are from a commoner."

Cecil was suddenly startled after hearing the words of High Priest Alonso. He was stunned for a long time before he stopped laughing. Yes, at first, his shockingly weak template actually made him ignore that he was not actually a civilian. He smiled. Said: "Yes, if you don't tell me, I have forgotten that I am also a pseudo-noble."
