Give Me the Name of God

Tikas came to the royal capital, and the ministers were a little surprised. They didn't expect that Manda had not become king.

But the surprise soon passed. Gaius's orthodox bloodline returned to the throne. This was reasonable and natural.

Returning to the royal capital, the first thing Manda did was to allocate palaces.

Shertai must live in the palace, and Tikkas must also live in the palace. Fortunately, the palace is large enough, and the manda is bounded by the central axis. The area to the east belongs to Tikkas, and the west area belongs to Shertai. The buildings on the central axis Jointly owned by two kings.

The second thing is to determine the person to crown the king.

According to the tradition of Romulu country, the most suitable candidate is the archbishop.

The current archbishop is Leo, but Manda does not want Leo to crown the new king. He wants to change the tradition of the God Punisher presiding over the transition of kingship.

This is also the agreement reached between Manda and Leo. Leo can own the church but cannot participate in government affairs.

But who else is more suitable besides Leo?

Manda wanted to crown the new king, but she had to have a proper identity.

The Minister of State certainly cannot do it. How can a minister crown a king?

High priest of Hermes?

This is a suitable identity. Manda was trying to promote the belief in Hermes across the country, but as soon as this idea came up, Manda himself vetoed it.

The rumors in the royal capital have not completely subsided, and many people still believe that Manda is the Archbishop of God's Punisher.

Rumors will be spread selectively according to people's wishes. People will not remember Manda's identity in participating in the coronation ceremony. They will only remember that he replaced the Archbishop of Divine Punishment and brought the crown to the new king.

As the rumors continue to spread, more details will be ignored, and eventually Manda personally crowns the new king, and the identity of the archbishop is confirmed. The relationship between Manda and the Church of God's Punishment has once again fallen into an ambiguous relationship, and a large number of Zhukehui in various forms will be born in the Romulu Kingdom.

The method of crowning the king in person did not work, but Manda came up with a better idea. He brought the poet, Guatel and a large number of craftsmen to the royal capital and gave them a special task. After finalizing the construction period, Manda arranged the coronation ceremony for fifteen days.

During these fifteen days, Manda had no peace for a day, and Tikas mentioned the matter of marrying the queen every day.

After several rejections, Tichus became angry and insisted on leaving the palace the day before his coronation.

Manda had no choice but to think of an excuse to stabilize him: Now that you have married Zola, she can only be regarded as the bride of an ordinary person, or at most the bride of an exile.

After the coronation ceremony is over and you become the real king, she can become the real queen.

Ticas temporarily calmed down, and on the day of the coronation ceremony, when the officials came to the door of the palace, they were stunned.

A huge stone statue of Hermes appeared outside the gate of the palace. The stone statue was one hundred and twenty feet high, looking down at the palace and the entire royal capital as if the true god had descended.

How is it possible? All the ministers were stunned, and Finance Minister Andok shouted: This is God, our God!

Looking up at the stone statue of Hermes, all the courtiers were trembling. The appearance of such a huge stone statue overnight was completely beyond the scope of understanding in this era.

Manda stood under the stone statue and shouted to his ministers: The great Hermes sent an oracle last night. He sent blessings to the new king of Romulu. He will always protect our kingdom and serve us. Bring justice, bring us happiness, bring us prosperity and prosperity for generations to come!”

General Longesen knelt on his knees, followed closely by Finance Minister Andok. Ticas, who was about to be crowned, also knelt on the ground. He had lived in Seven Star Mountain for many years and had already accepted his belief in Hermes. .

Led by the king, all the courtiers and guards knelt on the ground and shouted the honorable name of Hermes in unison.

A strong gust of wind blew and the statue moved.

Manda's heart trembled when she suddenly heard the Finance Minister shout: It's moving!

Manda really wanted to kick him to death, but then he heard the finance minister shout: The spirit is here, He witnesses, and He protects!

The ministers shouted loudly. This time it was not a herd effect, but a cry from the heart.

They really saw the statue moving. Amidst the waves of sound, the statue kept moving.

This is not some kind of hallucination, the statue is really moving, because the statue is not made of stone, but of wood.

With the carving knife of Hephaestus, Guatel spent ten days deep in the mountains to carve all the parts of this huge statue.

The poet spent two days applying a special layer of paint to the parts, which looked exactly like the stone statue.

The statue was divided into forty parts and was smuggled near the palace the day before the coronation ceremony.

Last night, Guatel used his special snot to connect forty parts together to complete this miracle.

Miracles are always the best way to gain faith. Regardless of the courtiers, soldiers or civilians watching from a distance, they all believe in this miracle.

The only flaw is that the wind is a bit strong today. The poet secretly prays in his heart: Don't fall, don't fall, I will put an iron bump on you tonight.

Under the statue of the god, the coronation ceremony began as scheduled. Manda led the ministers to pray to Hermes: Great Hermes, thank you for giving my life value, and thank you for giving me the opportunity to regain my dignity. Strength, thank you for giving me the wisdom to create happiness, thank you for giving me the pride of being a human being, I am willing to defend your majesty to the death under your protection, and let the top of Olympia shine with your glory forever!

Amid the sounds of prayer, Shelty took the crown and slowly walked out of the palace.

After consulting a large number of ancient books, Manda found out that in the early classical era, there was a special coronation ceremony during the reign of two kings, in which one king crowned the other.

There was no blessing, no prayer, Shertai didn't want to say a word, he put the crown on Tikas' head.

Young man, you will share the kingdom with me.

After saying this, Shelty turned to leave, but suddenly heard Ticas say: Please wait a moment, my queen is still waiting for you to bring her a golden crown.

Your queen? Shelty was stunned.

Ticas shouted: Zora, come here!

The former maid appeared in people's sight wearing a gorgeous robe.

With a sweet smile, she slowly walked to Ticas.

Manda tried his best to maintain restraint and glared at Longson.

Longerson looked at the guard captain, who looked confused.

Manda had previously ordered that the maid should be imprisoned immediately after the coronation ceremony began, so Rungersen handed over the task to the captain of the guard.

But now, not only was this woman not imprisoned, but she was also dressed in costumes and walked to the new king. It seemed that something happened that Manda could no longer stop.

Judging from his expression, Manda knew that the problem lay with the guard captain. He was a veteran from the Southwest and there was no possibility of disobedience. The only reasonable explanation was that he had forgotten.

How could he forget his mission?

Could it be that Odysseus is really here?

Shelta looked at Ticas and Zola and smiled: You want me to crown her?

Ticas bowed deeply and nodded.

Shertai looked at Manda and said, But you didn't prepare the queen's golden crown for me.

Because today is not the time yet. Manda was still trying her last ditch effort.

Today is the right time! Tikas took out a golden crown from his robe and handed it to Shertai.

Shelty looked at Manda with a hint of ridicule on his face.

Manda was speechless. When did Ticas prepare this golden crown? He has been asking people to monitor Ticas's actions. Why does he know nothing about it?

Tikas looked at Sheltai, who smiled slightly and put the golden crown on Zola's head.

Manda wanted to step forward to stop her, but suddenly she heard Ticas shouting: Hermes testifies for me, Zora is my queen, and she is the most noble woman in the Romulu Kingdom!

When the honorable name of Hermes was mentioned, the atmosphere at the scene reached its peak again. All the ministers shouted in unison, praying to Hermes and blessing the new king.

There is really nothing we can do this time. No matter how calm Manda is, she cannot get angry under the statue of Hermes, otherwise the faith she has worked so hard to establish will be in vain.

Ticus issued the first decree amidst blessings: The royal capital will hold a three-day sacrifice to present gifts to Hermes in the name of the king and queen!

The decree needs to be approved by the Minister of State, but what else can Manda do?

Saying that the government decree is invalid, the queen is invalid, and the sacrifice is invalid?

Manda would not do such a stupid thing if he allowed the new king he had supported to lose his majesty and offend the gods.

I have to endure it, I can only endure it, and after everything is over, I can have a good talk with this little guy.

…

Hermes was taking a nap in the temple, and the god Pan helped him count the pearls in the warehouse.

With Hermes' counting ability, he could tell the number just by looking at it, but He had to leave these trivial things to his son. Since Herma left, these trivial things have all fallen on the god Pan.

When Hermes woke up, Pan had already finished counting.

There are 164,318 pearls in the temple. Should they stay in the temple or be stored in the cave?

Hermes thought for a while: Give 10,000 to Typhon. I heard that he has recovered very quickly recently. Give the remaining rewards to the gods. Don't care about your status. Just see who does the more work. It's fair. The distribution is.”

Pan turned to leave, but was stopped by Hermes again: Wait a moment, take away all the gains you have gained these days.

Because there are so many believers in the world, Hermes can harvest thousands of pearls every day. He has been too lazy to check them in the past few days, so he must have saved a lot.

He waved his sleeves and opened the Fountain of Faith. The raging pearls gathered into a white stream and sprayed directly on Hermes' face.

Pan Shen was stunned for a long time, and the fountain of faith kept gushing out.

Hermes rubbed his cheeks, pushed away the clouds on the bluestone floor, and murmured: What happened?
