How to wear a goddess statue

On the surface, Rhodes has gotten rid of the prophecy of [Fate], and the final crisis of God War has also been resolved, and everyone is happy.

But it's not all over yet.

It is impossible for the power to break the balance to be unrestrained, and the God of Creation cannot exist forever in the world, which is written into the rules.

As long as Rhodes is still the primordial water and possesses the power of the creator, similar situations will happen again and again, trying to lead her back to the trajectory of fate, like an indeterminate bomb.

Once or twice, Eleuil might be able to call back Rhodes's self and prevent her from being completely assimilated by the rules, but this is not a long-term solution.

If any call fails, or if there is no time... the consequences can be imagined.

Faced with such a situation, Rhodes thought for a moment and decided to make an unprecedented attempt.

She wants to strip off all the godhead and chaotic power belonging to the creator, and seal them up.

Ordinary seals naturally won't work, at least there must be strict and effective restrictions, otherwise the seal can be broken at will in the future to regain divine power, what's the difference from now?Nor will the rules recognize it.

So, taking advantage of the fact that all the main gods—including Eleuil, who will become one of the main gods in the future—are present, Rhodes made a brief explanation, and all the gods rushed back to the Kingdom of God together, and they all landed on the center of the floating island. On the stone platform.

This is the first time that Eleuil has come to the legendary kingdom of the gods.

The princess stood beside Rhodes, looking around, with a look of novelty and exclamation in her eyes.

The surrounding area is full of unknown exotic flowers and plants, and beside the bushes with buds hanging, there are small elves with wings on their backs looking around. The trees are verdant, and in the distance is the towering outline of the temple.

The Kingdom of God was born on the basis of human mythology. Even if it is not like the world, there will be a subtle sense of commonality.

It is not too late.

Several main gods were about to stand in the same position as when maintaining the barrier of the divine force field in the past, but found that the layout of the divine power circuit on the stone platform had changed.

The previous eight directions moved sequentially, creating a brand new position between Rhodes and Aditya, changing from an eight-pointed star to a nine-pointed star. More and more complicated, but also more and more perfect.

It seems that even though Aleuil is still a "half god" and unable to use any divine power, the mythical space also senses her existence and opens up a place for the princess to belong to the Goddess of War.

Rhodes understood, and nodded to Eleuil.

If the princess felt it, she climbed onto the stone platform and stood still on the vacant seat.

The first half of the seal was completed independently by Rhodes.

She separated the Creation Godhead from the River Godhead, and the former immediately turned into an irregular cloud of gray fog crystals, while the latter fell back to her chest, still the same frost sapphire.

Without any pause, Rotas raised his hand, threw the godhead into the center of the stone platform, buried it under the stone, and at the same time arranged a seal with a part of the chaotic divine power.

The godhead itself is a dead thing, and will only stay in place quietly. When the seal is arranged, the part of the Creator's power reserved in advance will be used up to the last sliver.

At this time, Rhodes, apart from still bearing the title of Primordial Water, has almost no connection with Chaos. From godhead to power, he only belongs to the river goddess, as if it were fake.

This is not enough.

Rhodes raised his hand and added two constraints for the seal, or for himself.

One, the seal can only be broken if the battle of gods is started again and the enemy appears a force that breaks the balance.

Second, the seal can only be broken with the unanimous consent of the nine main gods of Solancia.

Nine balls of light of various colors were integrated into the eyebrows of those present. From then on, if the above two points are satisfied, Rhodes can regain the Chaos Godhead and fight as the Creator God again.

——We promise not to take the lead in using the original water.

It is such a vow.

Rhodes vaguely noticed that the prying eyes from the rules had finally dissipated.

The rules sanction this arrangement.

In the final analysis, what [World] prohibits is not the existence of the Creator God itself, but the power of the Creator beyond balance. As long as the Chaos Divine Power no longer appears, the rules will not try to assimilate the other party.

So far, the battle of gods has settled.

Rhodes and Eleuil went one step ahead and returned to the city of Surinya in the human world.

The other main gods really wanted to go back to their temples and fell asleep, but they couldn't.

The other two gods that participated in the battle of gods were almost completely wiped out, and the few surviving minor gods in Kasne also hid in the territory of Kasne, lingering and daring not to invade.

In other words, it was time for the Soran pantheon to exert influence on battlefield factors.

Weather, wind direction, climate change... On the battlefields of Solancia and Kasnet, the natural conditions will be tilted towards Solancia. Although there will be little change in the entire natural world, it will be more conducive to the queen's formulation Tactical plan to reduce the probability that the plan cannot keep up with changes due to sudden changes in the environment.

For the enemy, the situation is completely reversed.

The bustling cities built along the coastline were once the treasures of Solancia. They shined brightly by the sea, but they were invaded and dusted by the Kassner army.

And now, Eleuil took back the pearls one by one, letting them belong to the territory of Solancia.

It is undeniable that Horst's elder brother, Taz, the former lord of Bananna, played his own expertise in coastal warfare.

But even this veteran of the navy felt that the road was going so smoothly. To use a phrase that fits the Solan people's habits, it was as if the great gods were helping them.

Of course he didn't know that every time the generals gathered for a meeting in the meeting hall or the commander's camp, there were several main gods listening behind the erected screen.

No matter whether you can understand those tactical arrangements or not, in short, they affect natural factors within the range allowed by the rules, and hide their achievements and fame.

The battle line advanced all the way, regaining one city after another.

Compared with the tragic situation of killing after the Sanur army occupied the cities, Kasne occupied these cities for more than a year, causing less damage, which is a blessing in misfortune.

Until Kasne's army retreated in a row, they had to retreat from the rest of the coastal cities, and concentrated to their last foothold in Solancia, the city of Bananna.

"How could this be?"

Camon slapped the table with his palm, and the generals on both sides did not dare to meet the prince's eyes, and bowed their heads one after another.

They also want to ask this sentence!

The city line along the coast of Solan has been occupied by the Kasner army for the longest time and has the strongest control. It is reasonable to say that it can last for a while, but for some reason, it has no power to fight back in front of the Solan people.

The difference in combat power and tactical arrangements between the two sides is naturally one of the reasons. The problem is that there is a more confusing problem, that is, Kasnet is too unlucky.

Before the start of the battle, the plan was very good, but the wind direction was found to be wrong when I wanted to shoot the arrow that day. It is normal for similar things to happen once, but it seems very wrong if it always fails.

It's like... It's as if they have lost the protection of the gods, and even the heaven and the earth are against them.

Camon gritted his teeth.

Not sure when, his aunt who is the priest of the goddess of the soul can no longer get the oracle, even if the prince Kymon presides over the ceremony himself, it will not help.

Although the Goddess of Mind seldom gave guidance on war strategies, but when there was an oracle, at least it was not as unlucky as it is now!

Kaimon knew in his heart that even if his tactical plan was not scrapped due to changes in natural conditions, Kasner would only lose more slowly, but he was unwilling to accept this, and could only curse inwardly: "This damn Solanci Asian weather!"

No matter how hard it was for Camon to accept it, the offensive and defensive battle around the city of Bananna, which was also the last battle between the two armies in Solan, finally broke out.

It was a ten-day battle.

Some of Solan's army were the defenders who broke out from the city of Bananna in a hurry. They were incorporated into the siege army, full of vengeful anger and pure will to fight, shooting rockets, throwing javelins and boulders at the city wall.

Such will haunts the whole army, as if there were a god of war among them, with outstretched wings, holding the torch of victory, and swinging the invincible blade at the throat of the enemy.

Aleuil raised his hand, and shot a sharp arrow at the Kasneh flag fluttering on the city wall.

Under the repeated siege battles, the Kasne army was really unable to defend the city. If they didn't want to be trapped in the city, they had to break through.

Feng Shui turns.In the not-too-distant past, they forced the Bananna defenders to flee their homeland, and now, a year later, Kasne is forced to flee.

What's more, their escape was even more difficult than the original Sorans—the Solans could run to any direction on the land, but the Kasniers could only rely on the remaining warships to escape into the sea.

In the end, Camon was blocked less than a mile from where the warship was moored.

As long as he is at sea, the Kasnier is not afraid of any storms and enemies, but the premise is that he can go to sea.

Camon wanted to find a chance to break out of the encirclement, but suddenly the hairs on his back sprang up, and he instinctively dodged to avoid the sword attacking from his side.

"Ailu—Il!" Camon was astonished and furious.

His response was another sword.

Aleuil didn't intend to talk nonsense, a pair of golden eyes looked for the opponent's flaws behind the helmet, the eyes were cold, but also brilliant.

The supreme commanders of the two armies fought.

Kaimon is the commander and the most outstanding soldier in Kasner. The terrain of Kasner is not suitable for galloping on horseback, but he has been practicing equestrianism and fighting on horses since he was a child, in order to occupy the vast plains of Solancia one day. Harvest the lives of the Solanites in the fields.

Camon was born for this.

He was so sure.

If it was Mortis, Tina, Taz, Shalu, or any of the other generals of Solancia, Camon would have won and escaped, boarded the warship and sailed into the sea. That's right, Eleuil.

Not long after, the sword had fought hundreds of blows, and the speed of the sword's light and sword was dizzying.

There were sword marks one after another on Prince Kasniel's body, the tiger's mouth was open, and he was about to lose his grip on the handle of the knife, thinking about slashing down—for an instant, his movements froze.

His pupils dilated, and Camon lowered his head in a daze.

Opposite him, Aleuil drew out the blade sharply, blood gushed out from Camon's heart, while the princess stared at him condensedly, and gently flicked the blood off the blade.

Camon couldn't hold on any longer, and fell from his horse's back.

In another world, Camon has indeed fulfilled his long-cherished wish since childhood.

Invade rebellious Solancia, whose fleets are invincible and whose legions are fearsome, Kymon or his son will be the rulers of this land until another nation drives out the Cassnir ...

But these are already doomed not to happen.

The horse that lost its driver wanted to flee from the battlefield. The horse's hooves trampled over Camon's body, and the hoofs fell heavily, which did not arouse the human's painful reaction.he died.

Kasnier's army was defeated.

Scattered soldiers fled to warships and withdrew from Solancia by boats. Several ships were set ablaze by rockets on the way. In the end, only scattered warships returned to the sea.

The back of the ship is getting farther and farther away, and only small black spots can be seen, as if drawing an end to this protracted war.

On the coast, the operation to clean up the remnants of Kasne's soldiers has not yet been completely completed, but most of the Solan soldiers looked around, and there was no sign of the opponent. .

"Solancia!"

"Bless the gods, Solancia will live forever!"

In the noisy background, Aleuil tilted his head.

She looked at Rhodes who was standing with his fellow gods not far away.

Rhodes raised his eyes and smiled slightly.

The sea breeze was blowing, and the bloody smell not far away was still there.

After all, this war is over, the city of Bananna needs to be rebuilt, and Solancia will regain its vitality after the war.

But at this time, the series of future processes seemed to have nothing to do with the gods and demigods on the coast. They just looked at each other quietly, with emotions that only each other could understand.

Silent at the moment.

------

In the city of Acht, every household hung a bunch of new branches in front of the door.

The roads in the royal city were cleaned extremely clean, the main road paved with white stone slabs was put under martial law, and there were royal guards in uniform armor lined up on both sides of the road, with strict discipline.

The atmosphere should have been sober, but the flowers on the shoulders of the guards added vivid and soft colors to the scene.

Outside the defense line of the personal guards, the movement of people is not restricted.

A little girl who was not as tall as an adult's thigh wobbled over and walked up to the head of the guards, inarticulate but cheerfully shouted: "Congratulations—blessings! Your Majesty is happy!"

The team leader's personal guard - Shalu, who was also wearing flowers, raised her eyebrows, took out a piece of honey wrapped in leaf paper from her pocket, and put it in the little girl's palm. The girl thanked her happily, and ran back to her mother to show off own candy.

Half a year has passed since the end of the war, and after ample rest and preparation, this day finally ushered in, a particularly special day.

The day of worship of the goddess Rhodes.

It is also on this day that Princess Aleuil will be crowned as king and her wedding will be held on the same day.

Strictly speaking, it was unprecedented that the coronation ceremony and the wedding ceremony were held on the same day, but it is not surprising. What is really surprising and unbelievable is that His Majesty Eleuil married a god.

Goddess of the Iru, Rhodes.

Although the newly added myth says that His Majesty Aleuil is the reincarnation of the God of War and has some inexplicable relationship with the Goddess of the River, but this is a legend after all, and many people did not take it seriously until the wedding ceremony and coronation The news of the ceremony was released together, and people were dumbfounded.

The coronation process is fixed, but the marriage of the gods... how to do the wedding?

Can another protagonist of the wedding appear?

Is it possible to marry a statue of the goddess of Rhodes, a stone tablet, or choose a mythological theater actor or a priest of the river goddess as a symbol?

There are many doubts, none of which have been answered, which also makes the masses more curious than ever.

On the day of the ceremony, some people ran out of their homes early in the morning to watch the excitement, and then everyone came out to try to watch the ceremony. The alleys were empty. It was nothing like the crowds that lined the streets to welcome the princess when she returned home half a year ago.

Shalu is responsible for maintaining the order of the ceremony, preventing people from violating the rules and chaotic situations, and giving candies to sweet-mouthed children. Shalu, the former leader of the slave rebel army, said that this job is good.

At this moment, the crowd behind the guard of honor burst into cheers.

On the road not far away, a gorgeous open-top float slowly drove up. The car was sprayed with gold paint, and the royal family's coat of arms was engraved on the side. It was drawn by four healthy white horses.

Two rows of guards lead the way in front of the car, and the maids follow behind the car, throwing flower petals along the way.

On the car seat surrounded by flowers, a woman who is about to formally ascend the throne sits high and high.

There is no uniform standard for the robes worn by Soran kings on formal occasions. The common point is the luxurious gold ornaments.

Crescent earrings, hollow and carved wrist bracelets, python head arm rings, several thin gold rings on the forearms jingle lightly with the slight bumps of the floats, and a three-ring necklace inlaid with lapis lazuli, rubies and jasper Gold tassels, neatly organized, adorn the cape that extends from the collar.

Among the heavy gold ornaments, only the snow tea-shaped amulet on the front chest is the most eye-catching. Aleuil gently stroked the blue chalcedony bead in the center, and raised her eyes casually.

Black hair like satin, golden eyes lingering, the princess's complexion is more dazzling than the gold ornaments and costumes, heroic and sharp but also beautiful and elegant, with a bow and sword hanging behind the seat, she is the god of war in the world.

The parade of floats is the custom of the coronation ceremony of King Solan. Before going to the temple for the ceremony, the kings of all dynasties have to take a car around the main street of Acht to meet the people, and then they are officially crowned.

When the float was driving on the road leading to the temple complex, on the square in the center of the temple complex, Kurda, the maid of the court, was busy confirming the arrangement of the ceremony.

The waitress was calm and capable, and arranged all the preparations in an orderly manner, but there was one thing that even the professional Kurda couldn't do it.

That's how the wedding is arranged.

A month ago, when Kurda asked the princess for instructions on the wedding plan, Eleuil was very attentive and gathered the priests, ceremonial officers, and trusted ministers to conduct a detailed discussion on this divine marriage.

The wedding ceremony of King Solan always followed the principle of "supreme and simple", that is, all arrangements should reflect the respect of the royal family, and the process should not be too cumbersome, and it is better to finish within half a day.

After all, the gold ornaments that the royal family wears on formal occasions are really heavy. The king wears them fine, but the queen... According to historical records, there was a case where the queen fainted from exhaustion in the middle of the wedding.

When everyone else was at a loss for the arrangement of the divine marriage process, Eleuil sat in the main seat, his eyes fell on the open space beside him, his red lips parted slightly, as if he was talking to himself.

Then the princess made a final decision, omitting the process of the guard of honor to receive the marriage, and directly opened the ceremony in the temple. The follow-up arrangements are still in accordance with the rules, and they are all processes that require the cooperation of the two.

Having said that, the other protagonist of the wedding is God, how to cooperate with the ceremony.Could it be that a priest is to be found to act as a god?

It's impossible to complete these processes with the statue, right?

The stone statues in the temple are not easy to move.

Imagine the appearance of the new king holding a small statue to accept congratulations from his subjects. Everyone present: "..."

Eleuil did not explain this, but asked Kurda to leave the best viewing platform on the temple square, and no one else was allowed to come on stage.

"That's where the honored guests are seated."

The princess said meaningfully.

Kurda seemed to understand, but no matter what, she followed the king's order and left the platform empty.

At this time, the ceremony of coronation and divine marriage was about to begin. Except for the guards parading behind the princess, the rest of the noble ministers had already taken their positions on the square. Some people were looking at the empty platform, and they were inevitably confused.

No one could see that the platform was actually full of gods in spirit form.

After the war with Kasne, one of the reasons why the main gods failed to go back to their respective temples to sleep was because of the wedding of Rhodes.

Wedding, this word is a bit far away for the gods. The marriage relationship of the gods in the legend is only human imagination.

Some human gods were married when they were humans, but these memories have long since disappeared. There are still a very small number of gods and elves who have a love relationship, and I have never heard of anyone getting married like a human being.

Under such circumstances, the wedding of one of his colleagues, Rhodes, and his future colleague, Eleuil, is really a good gossip that can be talked about for 100 years, and no one wants to miss it.

"What are you going to do in a while?" Adiya asked with interest, "Do you want to transform into a human incarnation? Or become a blue heron..."

Rhodes smiled lightly: "Temporary secrecy."

Cupid pouted: "Okay, keep the mystery. Human tricks."

Relying on the fact that humans cannot see the objects wrapped by divine power, the gods brought the round table seats and sweet wine and snacks that are commonly used during banquets in the kingdom of God. .

It can only be said that fortunately people can't see it.

At this time, the main god sat around the round table.

Suojia looked at En eating the cookies with a benevolent face, the twin gods of the sun and moon chatted softly, the god of wisdom muttered and wrote and calculated, and the god of death was closed as usual, and the ravens around him were very happy. Just listen to the melody of the wedding ceremony that hasn't been changed until now.

Only two ravens were unusual, standing on the table in front of Luotus, looking forward to it.

They have reason to look forward to, after all, this is the coronation and wedding of their daughters.

Finally, under the eyes of everyone, the float that the princess was riding on drove to the entrance of the square.

Aleuil jumped off the high seat sideways and landed steadily. She wore pure white boots under her gorgeous robe, and the soles of her boots stepped on the scarlet carpet, and she came step by step to the river goddess temple.

Behind her, the guard of honor marched neatly. This army, which was baptized by blood and fire, even wearing flowers could not conceal the chilling spirit honed on the battlefield.

Everyone present was silent.

Aleuil looked at the empty platform in the eyes of others, blinked, and raised the corners of his lips.

Then he turned around and faced the altar of the temple and the tall statue of the river goddess behind the altar.

The first thing to start is the coronation ceremony.

The high priest Ruiya stood on one side, holding a scroll full of handwriting, and read out the achievements of the princess. She has made outstanding achievements in battle and political affairs. I am afraid that among the kings of Soran in all dynasties, there is no one who can make a record before taking the throne. Such a meritorious ancestor.

After the reading, the petite priest put away the long scroll.

On the altar in front of Eleuil, there is a crown made of pure gold. The eagle's head protrudes forward, and there are many pairs of wings carved behind it. Each golden wing feather is inlaid with lapis lazuli. The huge malachite on the top of the crown symbolizes the supreme kingship. , from the beginning of Soran until now.

It is placed on red silk and placed in a fragrant wooden box.

It was supposed to be the high priest who put the king's crown on Eleuil's head, but at this step, Rhea didn't pick up the crown, and Eleuil didn't move, and he spoke to the square with a calm expression , The ceremony continued like this.

In the original plan, the steps of coronation and marriage are closely linked.

After the speech, the coronation ceremony is over, and the wedding ceremony continues with the speech.

The problem is, there is only one person, how to hold a wedding?

Kurda stood in a side corner, looking at the side of the princess—should be called the queen, but she hasn't been officially crowned yet—the side was empty, with no actors as symbols of the goddess, and no statues of gods.

...Could it be that His Majesty really intends to hold a wedding with the statuette?

Kurda gasped.

The headmaid was worried.

Not far away, Rhodes at the round table on the platform got up and took a few steps in the air to the front of the temple.

She and Eleuil exchanged glances, the spirit body landed on the statue, and slowly overlapped with the statue.

Aleuil took half a step forward, raised his right hand, palm facing upwards.

In the next moment, everyone witnessed the miracle together.

A hand, white and flawless, slender, floated up from the hand of the god statue, and landed gently on the palm of Eleuil.

Eleuil exerted a little force and pulled in his direction.

The upper arm with the thin gold armband, the frost-blue gentle eyes, the long silver hair like clouds, the pure-color skirt and the snow-white cloak hanging behind him, gradually emerged from the statue and clearly displayed in front of everyone.

This figure landed on the ground in front of the altar, so light that it seemed weightless.

She smiled into the sky, and her clothes were exactly the same as the stone statue behind her. Although the face of the stone statue was not very similar, it made people feel that God should be like this.

That's what a river goddess should be.

There was silence for a while, and then the audience was in an uproar.

Those present—whether nobles, wealthy merchants or priests—did not know in advance that there would be a real god descending, and only thought it would be a symbolic ceremony.

but now……

This is a real god!

I don't know it at all, but there is a nest of gods on the viewing platform not far away.

No one noticed that Lorca, the female officer with black hair and blue eyes who always stayed by the princess's side, was not present today.

Under the breath-holding gaze of the people and the new and happy eyes of his colleagues in the gods, Rhodes picked up the crown placed on the altar.

She smoothed Eleuil's forehead hair gently, and put the crown on her head with her own hands.

Above the crown, the eagle's head is lifted up, and the golden wings are scattered and ready to fly. The gold chain representing the tail feathers is scattered backwards, covering the satin-like black hair.

So far, Aleuil is the nominal and de facto king of this country.

From the young princess who was exiled on the frontier back then, to now wearing the crown, step by step, she was finally crowned by the gods who love and believe in herself.

Rhodes seemed to see the child back then, looking up at her seriously, and smiling.

In the next second, the phantom dissipated, and the tall and slender Queen Solan was lowering her eyes and kissing the knuckles of the gods. She raised her eyelashes, and her golden eyes flashed a bright smile.

They swear to each other.

--"I will love you forever."

Under the glow of the sun, the two hands were lightly put together and held tightly.

Of course they will always be in love.

Just like the legend between the river goddess and Queen Solan, it will continue with the mythology. Everyone knows that the king and the god once spoke love words to each other at a certain moment.

Even in the farther future, Solancia civilization comes to an end, and all the shadows of myths disappear in the long years, until time obliterates all remaining traces.

Love and faith will be eternally one.

The author has something to say:

11.8 is finished.

------

After writing the coronation and divine marriage, the main text is over!

I should fix it when I wake up tomorrow, I feel dissatisfied, but now I am getting more and more sleepy and I can't figure out how to fix it... Cough.

There are tentatively three extra episodes, post-marriage routines and explanations of unresolved matters (such as Horst); after becoming a god in 2612; modern chapters.

I will not go back to the original world of Rhodes, and I will never go back again.

The modern chapter is about the modern world where gods exist and the Solankian civilization has not been cut off.

Thank you for your continued support and tolerance!

The story of Rhodes and 2612 will continue in their world. For me, the happiest thing is that you can see them and remember them. You have worked hard all the way, bow.
