Warlord: King of All Clans

Leo was stunned. This little golden retriever had awakened the holy light!

Dorn is not Olivia's godson, but the son of a kobold blacksmith.

He was too young to work, so he could only live in the children's dormitory in the lord's house and eat with the green-skinned cubs.

By chance, Dorn also joined the choir of the Holy Light Church and has been learning Holy Light hymns with Father DeWitt's page for nearly a year.

Yesterday, as he was singing, his hair suddenly glowed with golden light.

You know what, the combination of the golden-haired kobold and the holy light doesn’t look out of place at all.

Many witnesses thought that it was just the sunlight shining on him through the stained glass window, but DeWitt, who possessed the power of Holy Light, sensed Dorn's awakening of Holy Light at the first moment.

Dewitt knew more about the value of the kobolds' awakening of the Holy Light than Rio. He smiled bitterly and said, "Even in the southern region, which worships the Holy Light, it is extremely rare for people to awaken the Holy Light naturally. Many senior monks were able to master the power of the Holy Light only after they had an extraordinary awakening and had to undergo hard training."

"A monk who naturally awakens the affinity of Holy Light can be called God's Chosen One."

"If the church in the south knew that there was a Chosen One in Riverbend who turned out to be a kobold, they would definitely be devastated."

In the extraordinary world, due to different cognitions, various sects have different understandings of the elements.

For example, the ancient shamanism divided the manifestation of magic into four elements: earth, fire, water and wind. Early magic was basically studied around the application of these four elements.

Later, with the development of the supernatural, there were warlock schools that studied shadows, wizard schools that studied undead, the Arcanist Guild that studied pure magic, and the Church of Holy Light that studied holy light.

Some sects define holy light as a rare element, but the Church of Holy Light refuses to accept this view. They firmly believe that holy light is unique, a pure force that transcends the elements, and a gift from God.

There is actually nothing wrong with this statement. After all, a Chosen One who awakens to the Holy Light only appears once every few hundred years. The awakened mages who are not affinity with the Holy Light do not have the inherited knowledge of the church and cannot master the power of the Holy Light. Therefore, those who question it from the outside cannot provide evidence to refute it.

The Church of Holy Light originated in the province of Orlantiri and was originally only passed down in a few small countries on the southern coast.

But after the rise of the Orlantis Empire, it was established as the state religion, so along with the prosperity of the empire, the Way of Holy Light also flourished.

Over a thousand years, it absorbed or eliminated all religions in the south and expanded to the north and west.

Because the Orlantis Empire spared no effort in wiping out alien races, the Holy Light Church also took a very tough stance towards alien races.

Now that a lowly and lowly kobold has awakened the power of the Holy Light, wouldn't many church predecessors who wrote books and biographies have to crawl out of their graves overnight to revise the scriptures?

Leo only had a rough understanding of these things. He was more pragmatic. What exactly the Holy Light was was not knowledge that Riverbend urgently needed, but what the Holy Light could do was very important.

"Can Dorn heal the sick and save lives now?"

Dewitt nodded and said, "Holy Light naturally has the power to heal. As Dorn's Holy Light power grows stronger, he will also be able to heal wounds and become a Holy Light priest. However, he has just awakened and his power is weak. He still needs to train diligently."

"That's good, that's good." Leo nodded repeatedly, "Then I'll have to trouble you to teach me more."

Father DeWitt smiled bitterly. "The problem now is not to teach Dorn, but how to deal with his existence. The Holy Light Brothers have discovered the Chosen One and must report it to the Holy Light Church, and the Pope will make the final decision."

Leo was immediately dissatisfied, "How can that be! This is our Hewan's dog! Hewan has the final say!"

When Dawn heard this, he seemed to be praised and wagged his tail rapidly, "Woof woof woof, I'm the dog of the river bend!"

Father Dewitt was obviously more rational. He said in a deep voice, "Even if I don't tell anyone, once the Cathedral of Isenbol learns of it, it will report it to the Holy See. Then Hewan will be in trouble."

Leo thought about it, moved closer to Father DeWitt, and asked in a low voice: "How many holy ranks does the Holy Light Church have?"

Father DeWitt looked at him for a long time, and finally decided to betray his church. "From what I know, at least two of them, the Pope has been promoted to the holy rank for decades, and his current strength is immeasurable."

"Lord Antonisse, the Cardinal of the Southern Territory, has been promoted to the Saint rank for many years, but he is in a high position and has never taken action."

"Moreover, the three-level cardinal archbishops and provincial archbishops of the Holy Light Church are all high-level priests, and the local bishops are also all mid-level and above."

Leo remained silent. Archbishop Isenpol was the local bishop and also one of the few mid-level transcendents in Isenpol.

After Leo became the Grand Lord of Isenpol, Bishop Isenpol only participated in a few banquets. Because he was the adopted son of the Grand Duke of the North, he acknowledged his right to rule, but he did not have any intention of being close to him.

This is in the northern territory where the Holy Light Church is weak. In the southern territory, the power of many local bishops is even higher than that of the city lord.

Moreover, the Path of Holy Light is very similar to other extraordinary paths. It requires keeping the mind pure. Once one is entangled in worldly affairs, one's practice will inevitably slow down.

Therefore, it can be seen that the powerful people behind the Church of Holy Light are far more than just these high-ranking officials.

Father Dewitt saw that Leo was silent and thought that he was intimidated by the strength of the Holy Light Church. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Leo calculating: "I heard that there is a Saint-level swordsman and a Saint-level archmage in the Southern Territory Capital. So, there are four Saint-level people in the open?"

"There is another Saint-level wizard in the North, and I heard there is one in the West as well."

"If we capture all of them and send them to guard the polar ice field, Master Bobak will have to rest six days a week, right?"

Father Dewitt's gentle and polite personality almost collapsed for a moment, and he wanted to spit in Leo's face. He corrected with a blank expression, "It's too little. The Elf Queen is also a Saint. If she also takes shifts, Master Bobak can come back to help you farm."

Leo knew about Dewitt's mockery. The demigod was not an unemployed vagrant like Leo, wandering around the streets all day long. Even if he was optimistic about the river bend, it was impossible for him to stay there to assist him.

The same goes for the human saints. It is not so easy for them to be captured and forced to work. If there is a problem with the foundation of the Holy Light Church, there will definitely be strong people who come forward to deal with it.

The title of an elf demigod alone is not enough to intimidate the top leaders of the Church of Holy Light.

Leo was also very distressed, so he could only comfort her, "You teach me first, I'll come back to you after I think of a solution."

Dewitt nodded and said, "I will keep it a secret for you for now, but I won't be able to keep it a secret for long. Once the news gets out, I will have no choice but to report it, or else I will suffer as well."

"Thank you for your hard work, Father DeWitt." Leo called him "Father" sincerely.

But Father Dewitt obviously underestimated the elves' execution ability. Just half a month later, Grant Odalov, the second son of the Grand Duke of the North, arrived in Isenpol in person and came to the river bend to seek help.

The Elf Queen Ostara Anasta appeared in the northern holy city of Ancestors, wreaked havoc on the Ancestral God's Peak, and started a holy war with the holy wizard Runadov, and both of them disappeared!
