Chapter 1203: Integration of Politics and Religion (Happy New Year!)
At their status, family affection is very indifferent in their hearts. Even when facing their own sons, they still think about various interests rather than emotions.
What Sayamofu interacted with them was the innate noble responsibilities and rights they carried.
Their blood was boiling, and thin shadows emerged from their bodies, standing behind them layer by layer. The magical aura like a demon fire was flashing on their bodies.
Although they could not see the shadows behind them, the four dukes could clearly sense them and even call out their names.
Because they were their direct ancestors, they represented their noble blood inheritance.
In front of the noble Sayamofu, they had nothing to hide. Their origins were completely exposed. There was no way to lie, because that kind of inheritance was engraved in their blood.
Fortunately, the origins of the four people were all good enough, and there was no discovery of someone's origin in the process of bloodline tracing, such as being an illegitimate child.
This is not because the noble Sayamofu is partial and corrupt and covers up for them, nor is it because their family tradition is strict and no promiscuity has occurred.
Rather, when it comes to their family size, they attach great importance to blood inheritance. They are also worried that their blood inheritance will be tainted and occupied by others. For the heirs, especially those with inheritance rights, multiple verifications will be carried out.
Once it is discovered that these heirs do not belong to their own bloodline, the consequences will be catastrophic for both the heir and the mother of the heir.
Completely disappearing from the world is the most merciful way to die. In the multiverse, there are countless ways to make life worse than death, such as refining souls into evil weapons, and offering them as sacrifices to evil gods.
When the strength reaches a certain level, there is no need to use detection magic at all. The naked eye can tell whether it is one's own flesh and blood, such as a demigod like Gavin.
The noble Sayamofu did not just verify the identities of the four dukes, but also sorted out the noble power in their blood through this process. Their aura was rising step by step, and their temperament also changed visibly.
They became more charming in their words and deeds, and the dazzling brilliance they exuded attracted more attention. Their professional level jumped three levels, opening a special profession called the famous family, and jumped to the fifth and sixth levels, opening a series of special abilities.
You should know that at their level, there is no low professional level, at least starting with quasi-legendary, especially Duke Francis, who was born in a military family, and he was a high-level legendary knight.
The additional five or six professional levels, although part-time, cannot be fully integrated with the original profession, but the total level is here, and the invisible benefits brought by more than thirty life dice are also huge.
I dare not say that they are comparable to demigods, at least the existence of the mortal race that can directly threaten them will become fewer and fewer.
This tangible benefit made the four dukes look at the nobles in a different way.
They can be called pragmatic or hypocritical.
At their level, they will definitely not trust anyone easily, even if the other party is a god, and the doctrines they have are in perfect harmony with them, and there are also elements of hypocrisy in it.
But now it is different. They can gain more powerful power in this process, which is the root of everything. It is worthwhile for them to invest more manpower and material resources in this noble person, and their strength will rise with it.
After all, this famous family that has just been opened belongs to the other party's exclusive sacrifice, and the growth rate is completely related to the other party's grace.
This power increase is not one-sided. The noble Sayamofu also bloomed a stronger divine light in this process, and her strength began to rise steadily, especially with the change of the mentality of the four dukes. The light she bloomed from her body was impossible to look directly at, and her body began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Large.
Super large.
Giant.
Super giant.
Godhead Dharma.
This is the divine image of this noble person. Even though her height has exceeded the palace council hall where they are, she did not cause any damage here. She passed through directly and looked down at this place with a sacred posture.
"God of Justice, what is that?"
"Gods, this is a god, a god has come in person!"
"Protect the Duke, quickly enter the council hall, protect the Duke!"
"Are you crazy? This is a god? How can you protect the Duke? The only thing we can do is pray to her to avoid her divine punishment!"
"Protecting the Duke is our sacred duty. Whether facing demons or gods, we should not retreat... This is our oath before the guardian god Heim."
This sudden situation made the guards guarding the palace council hall explode, and their reactions were different.
Some knelt on the ground on the spot and offered their prayers to the divine image of the noble Sayamofu.
Some were trembling all over, unable to react effectively, and even unable to speak.
Others adhered to their duties, drew their swords and tried to rush to the palace council hall.
"Kneel down, everyone. This is Sayamofu, the patron saint of our nobles. She will bless our rule and protect your noble duties. Pray to her, explore your noble bloodline, and unlock your own noble power."
Four Dukes of Taesel appeared behind the noble person at the same time, and the magical brilliance blooming on his body complemented the brilliance of Saiya Mov.
In the past, they were not only as simple as improving their noble bloodline power, but also had a large number of teachings belonging to the nobles, which were directly instilled into them.
It is not difficult for them to understand, or to further visualize their aristocratic responsibilities and re-explain their original rule legitimacy in a doctrinal way.
Many things are learned without a teacher, and they directly cooperate with the noble Saiya Mov preaching.
Those who can be brought by them and protect themselves from their own safety are naturally the ones among their confidants, and most of them are from nobles.
Seeing the object of his loyalty appear, the Duke Guards did not hesitate and all knelt on the ground and responded loudly, "Abide by the order."
Even the Duke Guards who had been moving forward bravely couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably. This is a typical fear.
They are now facing a god. It is no different from committing suicide by charging him. When the blood bravery fades away, their physical instinct will regain their points.
"You have done a very good job. You have not let down your bloodline and noble responsibilities!" The noble Sayya Mov not only did not express his anger because of the attacking posture of the Duke Guards, but instead gave high praise to these people and took more attention to them. A few glances.
The divine light burst out from her body, but it did not fall directly into the dukes' guards, but first penetrated into the four dukes. After refracting them, it penetrated into the dukes' guards below again. On the body.
This is a link to faith.
Moreover, these belief links are not carried out at will, but are distributed according to the loyalty of these nobles.
This magical aura that bloomed from them can be seen.
The Duke of Walter in Zazesbo City is blue, and the deep blue like the sea represents the deep connection between their family and the sea.
The Duke of Zebel in Myratma City is bright yellow, which is a color that is biased towards the royal family, representing their ancestors and having a strong royal bloodline.
The Duke of Sigfrey in Willen City is green, which represents the natural color, the close relationship with the forest, and the elf blood flowing in their bloodlines.
The Duke of Francis in Saradas City is blood-red, which is a symbol of the military family and represents the martial spirit in their bloodline.
The reactions of the dukes and guards were exactly the same as those of the four dukes before. Bloodline phantoms appeared on them, which also opened up the special professional templates of the nobles in them.
The bloodline phantoms on most people cannot be compared with the four dukes, but there are also very few, and their bloodlines are even less than those of the four dukes.
However, they did not directly upgrade five or six special profession levels by taking the Rockets like the four dukes.
The origin of the noble Saiya Mofu's bloodline is not just about whether their bloodline inheritance is as ancient as it is. It is only a part of it, just like part of their aristocratic identity.
The most important thing is to look at the aristocratic level they are in and the size of the fiefdom they have.
In other words, the church hierarchy of the noble Sayyamofu is perfectly integrated with the secular aristocratic hierarchy.
This is very reasonable.
She herself represents aristocrats, aristocratic rule, and aristocratic members, so there is no need to start a new business.
Especially after thousands of years of development, the Kingdom of Taser dare not say that it has developed the knight feudal system to the extreme, but it has reached a relatively high level, with a complete operating mechanism, and Sayya Mov can eat ready-made ones. .
In terms of acceptance, it is also relatively easier.
Therefore, a scene of the monarch and ministers separating their feudals appeared in the field, just like a pyramid, with the divine brilliance scattering downwards layer by layer.
This belief link is never one-way, but two-way.
When they reach the bottom, after igniting the blood power of the dukes' awe, these noble divine forces will be taken back layer by layer, and in this process, they will naturally carry the power of faith.
Just like the rule of aristocrats, they will collect taxes on these belief forces layer by layer, intercept part of them in their bodies, merge with their bloodlines, and improve the profession level of their prestigious nobles.
The more you are located at the top of the pyramid, the more faith power you will gain.
The noble Saiya Mov naturally bears the brunt and is the biggest winner, earning at least 90%.
The second is the four dukes, who took 90% of the remaining 10%.
Compared to the nobles, although they only have small heads and have to be divided into four, they are divine power after all, and are still enough to promote their new round of growth, and their body shape is gradually increasing.
Large.
Extra large.
Finally, it was frozen at eight or nine meters, and coupled with the rich magical aura on its body, it was like a divine envoy who was descending on earth, exuding an inviolable sacred majesty all over its body, which made people couldn't help but admire and worship him.
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
They are no longer simply improving the profession level of famous families, but instead injecting divine power into their bodies and becoming divine apostles of the nobles.
This aristocratic goddess who had just re-improved her doctrines has weakened to the extreme and needs believers to quickly improve their strength.
The four powerful dukes and nobles in the Kingdom of Tethyr are her best candidates for development.
If she wants them to spare no effort to promote their beliefs, what could be more appropriate than letting them gain more powerful power in the process?
This is not a conspiracy, but an outright conspiracy.
All the gods use this set of tricks. The more successful the preaching priests are, the more divine grace they receive, and the more powerful they are.
It is just because of their priesthood that they have to set up a separate system, and many of them are relatively disconnected from secular rule.
Unlike the noble Siamorph, who integrates politics and religion.
In fact, the four dukes are not her best choices. Those kings or queens are her natural voters, and they can be completely integrated with the country's rule.
Once this priesthood is well managed, the future development will be absolutely limitless.
Strength is always the best stepping stone. No matter whether these duke guards were originally believers of Tyr, the god of justice, or believers of Heim, the god of protection, they must pay the highest respect to Siamorph at this moment.
They may not necessarily convert, but they will definitely believe in both, unless they give up their noble status.
This is also the uniqueness of the noble priesthood of Sayamofu. This is a compatible priesthood. Many people in this society have more than one identity. When they are in different identities, they correspond to different gods.
It's just that there is a distinction between primary and secondary in faith.
Most gods will not be too demanding in this regard, and only require their exclusive priests and holy warriors to believe in them.
Whether it is the establishment of the faith link or the speed of the noble blood awakening, it is faster than imagined.
Everything was quickly gathered back, and the one god and four dukes returned to the palace council hall.
After this, the relationship between the two sides became extremely close, and their words became very intimate.
"The noble is worthy of being our patron saint. Everything fits perfectly with us. When I return to the territory, I will not only build a magnificent church for you in the city of Myratma, but also summon all the nobles in the territory to learn your doctrine."
"One church alone is not enough. All noble territories should have your church or shrine!"
"That's right. Not only the nobles should learn, but ordinary people should also recite the noble doctrine to let them know why they should support and obey our leadership."
"The legitimacy of those who have ascended to the peak of power by usurping the throne will be questioned."
The four dukes who sat down again praised the noble Sayamofu and made solemn promises.
With the in-depth interpretation of her doctrine, they found that this doctrine is not only conducive to consolidating their rule, but also a tool to question the legitimacy of Zalanda's rule. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.
It reverses the decline of their being suppressed by Zalanda.
In response to the promises and compliments of the four dukes, the noble Siamorpha just smiled and said nothing. She had already sown the seeds, and all that was left was to wait for them to blossom and bear fruit, and to reap rich fruits.
After walking around, the four dukes intentionally or unintentionally directed the topic to Prince Hared.
"The Kingdom of Tethyr has been torn apart for too long, and the situation on the entire continent is turbulent. As the guardians of this kingdom, we have the responsibility to mend these cracks and restore its unity, so that we can better fulfill our noble duties."
"Not only that, in the face of the development of the new continent, we suffered from the inability to work together, allowing those profiteers in the Kingdom of Am to get ahead, which led to one step behind, and many things were in a passive state."
"We originally wanted to welcome Prince Hared back, let him ascend the throne, and fulfill his duties as a king, but he now has treacherous villains around him to destroy our plan."
"If the noble can persuade Prince Hared to return to his throne from the perspective of the king's duties, I believe he will not be able to refuse!"
The four dukes directly set their sights on Siamorph, wanting her to help welcome Prince Hared back and continue to advance their plan to welcome the king.
It's just that no god in this world is easy to deal with.
The noble Siamorph swept her eyes over the four dukes and slowly said, "Prince Hared, I have met him in Waterdeep. He not only has pure royal blood, but also has the appearance of a king.
If you really want to assist him, you should show your true attitude. I believe he is not unreasonable and will definitely give you a satisfactory response.
But if you abandon your sacred responsibilities for your own selfish desires, even I can't provide you with shelter!"
In front of her, the true thoughts of the four dukes were completely exposed, including their plan to undermine Prince Hared and take control of the Kingdom of Tethyr.
"The nobleman taught us that we only sent envoys to welcome Prince Hared before, which was too hasty and insincere. No wonder Prince Hared didn't want to come back.
To show our sincerity, we will go to Waterdeep to meet him in person, discuss this matter with him, and beg him to return to the kingdom to preside over the political situation and save hundreds of millions of people from the water and fire."
"The old duke is right. This is our problem and we have the responsibility to make up for it."
"I also agree to go to the City of Glory to welcome Prince Hared in person."
"I agree too."
These warlord nobles fully demonstrated the other side of the nobles - shameless.
Even though their true thoughts were seen through by Siamorph, they still avoided the important issues and did not respond to the nobleman's words at all.
Even if the other party is a god, it does not mean that they have to obey her words unconditionally, especially when it comes to their own and family interests, they will not be easily shaken.
This has nothing to do with whether they are nobles or not, but human nature.
If this world can operate according to the gods' ideas, it will have become a perfect world in an orderly manner, rather than a big dye vat, colorful and colorful.
Even if a god falls into this place, it will be dyed into different colors.
