Ignoring Athena's resentful eyes, William smiled and said to Strauss, "You should have three days to spread the way of the Holy Light in the city-state of Hell Mountain.
As for any accidents in Hell Mountain, wait for my instructions."
"Understood, Your Majesty".
Strauss nodded respectfully, and after leading the other ten knights to salute, William waved his hand and sent them, along with their horses, to a hill outside the city-state of Hell Mountain.
Putting his hand on his chest, Strauss closed his eyes, silently feeling the strong heartbeat.
It took a while to open his eyes, and turned to look at the ten excited paladins whose faces were flushed and their eyes were full of expectations.
"Your Majesty has already let us understand that the Kingdom of God is there and has given us the opportunity to enter, so, work hard, my comrades in arms!"
Everyone nodded excitedly, "Yes, Bishop Strauss."
1433 If you say no, then be tough
Ye Tiantian reminds you: ask for collection () after reading, and it is more convenient to read again.
For Strauss, who is already in his 80s, has experienced aging, and then regained his 50-year-old body, as long as he serves William wholeheartedly, he can live longer.
Not to mention guarding the temple of the king of the gods and spreading faith,
Even if it is necessary to engage in a battle of gods, he will not hesitate in the slightest.
If he can enter Mount Olympus as a follower, he will be William's most loyal sword and guardian.
The only thing that bothers Strauss is that Angela, the deputy head of the Paladins personally appointed by William,
In other words, the acting head and the actual commander will definitely fight secretly with the two goddesses Athena and Arthenis in the future.
At that time, will I be on the side of Angela, who has proved that I am also the princess of God's Domain, and even led the Paladins, and fought a brilliant battle in Vanaheim God's Domain?
Or stand on the side of the Athena sisters who have the advantage in numbers, status and power of the queen?
'Father God above', thinking about this problem, Strauss found it extremely troublesome.
Grabbing the saddle of a war horse led by a paladin, after getting on the horse easily, Strauss shook off the troubles in his mind, grabbed the reins,
Looking at the huge city wall built between two high mountains at least 20 meters away from a distance of more than ten kilometers, he turned his head and nodded to the ten mounted knights, knocked his heels on the stomachs of the horses, and ran slowly towards Hell Mountain.
With the animal-friendly ability blessed by Arthenis, the knights who are already good at equestrian skills can easily match the war horses on Mount Olympus.
After a distance of more than ten kilometers, the horses were only warmed up, and they arrived at only four meters wide and three meters high, which were specially used to defend the city gate.
The city-state soldiers guarding the city gate didn't take much precaution against Strauss and his group. Just by looking at their clothes and horses, they could tell that they were elite troops, even noblemen.
After all, in the eyes of normal people, no matter how elite eleven people are, it is impossible to capture the city gate that is defended by 800 people and the interior is tens of meters long.
When Strauss and the others were more than ten meters away, they took the reins and stopped, and soon the leader in iron armor pushed away the civilians waiting to enter the city gate, walked quickly to Strauss, and bowed. bowed and asked,
"My lord, do you have any news about the barbarians?"
Strauss shook his head, but he quickly thought of what William had said, that these paladins still had three days.
"Although there is no specific information, the barbarians estimate that they will arrive here in three days."
After saying this, Strauss continued, "In addition to bringing this information, the purpose of our coming here is to help you resist the barbarians."
The captain of the guard just smiled, and after careful identification for a moment, he saw that the appearance of these people was definitely human.
And just by looking at their faces, it was obvious that this group of people seldom basked in the sun.
According to the standards of Olympus soldiers, although the eleven paladins looked elite, they were all pampered.
Shaking his head reassuringly, "Thank you for your kindness, but when it comes to war with the barbarians, we will not accept people of unknown origin who approach the city gate during the war."
Strauss nodded clearly in his heart. He would speak to the small leader in front of him who had no decision-making power to help, but he wanted to spread the news to the guards first.
With a buffer of one or two days, it won't be too abrupt when you officially help.
But Strauss did not expect that when he took the knights and followed the captain of the guard to meet the owner of the city,
What I heard was that the power of the city was mostly in the hands of the House.
Moreover, the congressmen have decided to rely on the Wall of Hell to keep the barbarians out for a few days, and then start negotiations to find conditions acceptable to everyone and avoid a large number of casualties.
This sounds nice, but Strauss, who has lived for more than 80 years, just wants to think about the large caravans loaded with goods he saw on the way here. He doesn't understand that the reason for avoiding war is related to trade and money.
In the eyes of these congressmen, once the war starts, although there is an advantage of the Wall of Hell, there is no problem in defending it, but the protracted siege will make it impossible to do business with peace of mind in the next few years.
Strauss finally asked tentatively, "Do you believe in God, Lord Palau?"
"No," Palau shook his head, jokingly said with a smile, "If the God of Trade says it, I and most of the congressmen will believe in him.
If there is a god of justice and contract, we will also believe in that god.
As for those gods on Zeus and Mount Olympus who only know how to exploit human beings but never bestow them, forget it.”
"No, you should believe it".
With a sigh in his heart, Strauss knew that he couldn't persuade a group of people in power who had their souls swallowed by money.
He whispered a few words of praise to the light elf Alice, and a power of holy light appeared on his hands out of thin air,
Let Strauss, who still has many wrinkles on his face, look solemn and holy.
Under the puzzled and terrified gazes of the city lord of Palau and a dozen guards, the holy light swept over them, and everyone immediately felt their fatigue was swept away.
