Chapter 1139: The Conferred God Begins
"I'm not interested in the power of faith. Since you are willing to hand over all your power, I certainly won't stop you from continuing to preach in your original territory."
Han Chen said, "If you had surrendered earlier, there would not have been millions of soldiers killed throughout the county during this period."
The pope sighed, and then said: "Your Majesty is merciful, we are villains."
Han Chen wasn't too surprised by the surrender of the Holy Vulcan Pope.
After all, this world relies on strength to speak. The Holy Vulcan Sect has only two choices, one is to destroy, and the other is to surrender.
After accepting the surrender of the Holy Fire Kingdom, the Holy Sword Kingdom fell into anxiety all day long.
They were afraid that one day Han Chen would suddenly tear up the armistice agreement and invade their border.
But to their relief, Han Chen did not choose to attack them. Instead, after integrating the two kingdoms, he began to vigorously develop those barbarian areas that were not suitable for human habitation.
In this world, there are many strange races.
There are even some gods who don't like the beliefs provided by humans, but prefer those provided by purer races.
Although such gods are a little weaker, after all, the power of faith that humans can provide is the most powerful, but such gods can live longer, because many races are born with relatively loyal personalities, and they will continue until the extinction of the race. Resolutely support the gods.
During this year's development, Han Chen gathered more than 24 counties and opened up more than six counties. According to Han Chen's estimation, these lands can support a population of more than 40 million.
Of course, the growth rate of the population is limited. They just opened up space that can support so many people, but not so many people migrated there.
However, there was a small accident in the middle. Among the 24 unknown subordinates, two of them encountered a powerful enemy during the development process, and unfortunately fell, but everyone didn't care about the deaths of the two people. Chen, on the contrary, cared more about the troops they led.
Six months after the surrender of the Holy Fire Kingdom, the conferring of the gods began.
In Yorkshire, the population of the three nearby counties gathered here, with a total of more than 12 million people. They gathered in a square and began to pray to the existence in the center of the square.
This time, the process of becoming a god did not have much twists and turns. The warrior wearing the blue armor successfully became a real god, and then ascended to the Kingdom of God. Of course, the blue armor he has been using His long sword was kept as an artifact for the generals to fight.
Han Chen handed over the Excalibur to the first Pope, the new God of Swords.
"As the spokesperson of the gods in the world, you should fulfill the duty of making contributions to the gods. When we need a war, you must hold this sharp sword and make enough contributions for us, so that you The gods on the top will be rewarded, and if you make enough contributions, you will also have the chance to become a god."
After the ceremony, Pope Holy Fire found Han Chen.
"Hasn't Your Majesty already promised to retain our Holy Fire Sect's qualification to continue preaching in the original territory? Why should we deprive us of our faith?"
The Holy Fire Pope put on a look of righteous indignation.
Han Chen glanced at him with cold eyes: "Are you talking to me?"
After being swept by Han Chen's cold eyes, the Holy Fire Pope fell into an ice cave.
His tone softened involuntarily: "Well, we are loyal to His Majesty. I hope His Majesty will not lose justice, because this means losing the hearts of the people."
If he still refuses to agree, then he can only express his determination to die.
After all, the foundation of the Sacred Fire Sect is still there. If they forcibly launch a holy war, at least 20 million people in the entire Sacred Fire Kingdom will lose their lives in this war.
And this was not what Han Chen wanted to see.
This is not to say that he really cares about the lives of these 20 million people, mainly because for him, population is also a very important resource.
Although the regeneration rate of population resources was fast, after all, Han Chen was not very old. If they were easily wasted, they would have to wait at least 18 years before they could be replenished.
"Don't worry! I agreed to you, so I won't treat you badly. After all, I have to use my credit to recruit more gods who are loyal to me!"
Han Chen drew a circle on the map, "The new one is a sword god anyway! He occupies a territory with a population of about 15 million people, but there should be many loyal people in this territory." For the believers of Holy Vulcanism, I think there must be at least 20%.
If you publicize a little bit, then at least half of the people can respond to your call. Now I order you to move this half of the people to this area, and then build a new home in this area. Among your new homes All believers are believers who are loyal to the religion of life. "
Seeing the territory planned by Han Chen, the Pope gasped: "Your Majesty, that place is a barbarian area! There is no population."
"The dangers in those places have almost been cleared. As long as someone passes by, there will be unexploited resources everywhere."
Han Chen said, "Won't you give birth if you don't have a population? I have already calculated that this area can support at least 20 million people. As long as you are given 18 years, this area will be dissatisfied with your loyalty to the Holy Vulcan Sect." Descendants of believers, I think a region full of true believers must provide more power of faith than a region full of false believers!"
The Pope frowned, the truth is indeed such a truth.
But is it really that simple?
He wanted to say something more, but Han Chen just said indifferently, "Just because I'm talking to you nicely, it doesn't mean I'm asking for your permission."
The pope knelt down immediately: "Thank you for your grace!"
With Han Chen's current status, he could even decide the life and death of a god under one order. How could he dare to resist the other party?
It is his instinct to fight for the rights and interests of his master, but this does not mean that he is about to risk his life.
And if he really angered Han Chen, then the god behind him might be the one who was unlucky.
What's more, what Han Chen promised was not a lie. If the danger in that place has been cleaned up, and all the people who migrated there are loyal believers of the Holy Vulcan Sect, their descendants are of course far more likely to become true believers than Those areas that have just been conquered are higher.
