After defeating the angel army, the biggest crisis facing humanity in Sanctuary was relieved.
Considering that people really need a grand celebration to forget all the previous pains, and that the victory of this war also needs to be celebrated, and the army also needs a triumphal ceremony, as Queen Liya, under the advice of the nobles, she decided to donate money from the treasury.
Funds were taken out to prepare for a grand celebration ceremony.
It was slightly different from her previous enthronement ceremony. When she ascended the throne, she was in a hurry because of the time and the threat of the hell army, so everything was kept simple. Although a celebration ceremony was held in the city, she only distributed some to the people.
It’s just drinks and food, and the curfew is in place, so it’s not that grand.
Moreover, Cardeum had just experienced the cruel rule of a hell demon at that time, and the people had not settled down. Even if they participated in the celebration ceremony, the atmosphere was not enthusiastic.
But this time it was different. The news of defeating the angel army or the demons of hell made the people feel happy and excited. The atmosphere was undoubtedly much better than before. After all, after there were no worries, the people were optimistic about the situation under the rule of Queen Leia.
The future life is also full of expectations.
In addition, this time the celebration ceremony was grand in scale, with the participation of nobles and triumphant troops, and the curfew lifting time was also extended to three days, which made it even more exciting.
During the preparations for the celebration, the entire people of Kaltim spontaneously mobilized and organized to provide support to the best of their ability for the preparations for the celebration.
Many merchants even provide goods needed for the celebration at discounts and low prices, and many items basically only charge the cost price.
Queen Leia's policy of unifying the entire Sanctuary is a huge benefit to them. In this way, although the original customs and taxes between countries will not be completely abolished, a unified and stable country is very beneficial to business development.
, this also greatly enhanced the enthusiasm of these businessmen, so they took this opportunity to show off to the new queen.
If Liya had not announced that she would not accept donations from civilians and businessmen, I am afraid that these businessmen would directly donate their wealth in order to gain the queen's favor.
For the nobles of Kaltim, this celebration was also the first time in many years since the empire lost its capital Kurast that there was such an event worthy of large-scale celebration and commemoration, which allowed them to regain their
She has confidence in the empire and has shown sufficient loyalty and support to Queen Leia.
Providing money and various support to the queen for this celebration is also a way for these nobles to express their loyalty.
Donations from nobles are different from donations from the public. Liya, who originally did not intend to receive the money, finally understood that accepting this wealth was equivalent to accepting the money from the nobles under the guidance of Mr. Benduin and Deckard Cain.
With their allegiance, this wealth was collected into the national treasury, filling up the national treasury that had become quite empty due to the expenses of the celebration.
Originally, the foundation of the Kejistan Empire and the accumulation of Kartim as the most prosperous commercial city in the empire would not make the treasury empty after just one celebration. However, the tyranny of the King of Lies during the reign of Hakan II, the incarnation of the King of Lies, was not enough.
It greatly consumed the empire's wealth, causing the empire's finances to be affected.
In the end, Hakan II's act of expelling all the nobles from the palace area also greatly affected the stability of the empire's financial revenue. After all, both taxation and the treasury still needed officials and nobles to manage it.
As for the subsequent army expedition, it further drained the Kejistan treasury, and the expenses were huge.
Under such circumstances, the leader of the Iron Wolf Guards, Asira, even proposed that the Iron Wolf Guards return to Kurast, the former capital of the empire, and unearth the wealth left over from the ruins of the past when the capital of the empire fell.
There is not a lot of waste waiting to be done, but the imperial finances do need funds to fill the treasury.
Regarding this suggestion, Liya also chose to agree after consulting her two think tanks, but she arranged this after the celebration.
In fact, not only this one thing, but almost all matters, big and small, as long as they were not urgent and had to be done, were postponed by Liya until after the celebration, which made many people feel a little puzzled.
But considering that after this battle, both the queen herself and the soldiers and civilians of the empire need a celebration to relax and have a rest, and everyone can accept and understand this.
After all, Liya does not completely ignore government affairs. She will still deal with truly urgent matters in a timely manner, but she has raised the priority of preparations for the celebration to the highest level.
As for the reason, it is just an oracle from Littorio - the god will ascend the throne amidst the cheers of thousands of people at the celebration.
This was the first official oracle that Kegistan received after choosing to believe in Chen Mo. Both Liya and the imperial nobles who knew about it showed great importance to it.
Not only did they raise the preparations for the celebration to a new level, they also modified the process of the celebration to include people worshiping and offering sacrifices to the gods, although they still don’t know the identity of the god who will be enthroned at the celebration.
What is the name of the god, but this does not prevent them from choosing to believe in this god.
Littorio was not idle at this time, but together with Hood erected a huge statue in the city of Caldeum.
This statue that needed to be erected by two gods was of course the statue of Chen Mo. However, because he had not yet ascended to the throne of deity and was conferred as a god, the face of the statue was still blank. It was only carved that he was wearing a robe.
, holding a long staff, surrounded by dragons, and dragging an image of the world in his hand.
Because of the God Conferment Ceremony, not only Kaltim, but also the entire Sanctuary, Heaven and Hell have erected the same statues at this moment, and they are spread all over the world's important earth nodes to ensure that when Chen Mo ignites the divine fire to burn the faith,
When the power is strong, you can easily connect all the earth veins through these idols and the previously established wedges.
In addition, all the worlds under the rule of the empire have now erected such statues of gods in major cities, and the beliefs generated by the people of these worlds have been gathered on the statues for Chen Mo to use in the ceremony of conferring gods.
It can be said that at this moment, not only the Kaltim or Kejistan Empire in Sanctuary are preparing for Chen Mo's canonization ceremony, but all the worlds in the entire empire are also preparing for Chen Mo's canonization ceremony.
Ritual contributes its own strength.
With such intensive preparations, the day of the celebration finally arrived.
The entire Kaltim was immersed in an atmosphere of joy and solemnity. The returning army received the triumphal ceremony they deserved. Flower petals and confetti fell on them, as if every soldier was covered with a layer of splendor.
color.
As the army entered the city of Kaltim, they naturally had to pass by the statue of the god that had just been erected, offering their army's faith and loyalty to the god who protected them.
Although Mr. Pontuin, as a representative of the nobles loyal to the Queen, instinctively does not want the army of the empire to be controlled by the religious church as it was twenty years ago, he thinks that this is a real god, and the gods under his command have powers that are difficult for mortals to do.
Despite the imaginary force, Mr. Pontuin still obeyed his own will and chose to believe in the new god.
After the army entered the city, there was a complete celebration. A large amount of wine and food were placed on the street for people to take. At this moment, there was no gap between nobles, soldiers and civilians. Everyone was singing and dancing to celebrate this arrival.
A hard-earned peace.
After thousands of years of establishing a sanctuary, mankind has finally won true peace, and there is no longer the threat of heaven and hell.
Although for the vast majority of human beings, they are still stuck in the concept that this war is over, and do not understand what exactly this war ended, nor do they understand the meaning contained in it, this does not prevent them from
To celebrate this, it does not prevent everyone from getting drunk and bathing themselves in wine at the same time.
"It looks very lively, why don't you go down and play? This is a ceremony prepared to please the god like you. Those noble girls will definitely not mind having something happen with a god. These are high-quality oriental-style noble girls,
Cousin, are you really not going?" Holding a gold wine glass, Chen Yu was tasting the fine wine and food while teasing Chen Mo, who was just standing aside and watching.
The two are cousins, so they naturally understand each other's LSP attributes. However, Chen Yu is now married, and his wife is still a female tyrannosaurus in the literal sense. He cannot be too indulgent and can only make Chen Mo happy.
But Chen Mo is the emperor of the empire, and there has been no shortage of women around him from the beginning. Although the first woman beside him, Ada Wang, was not for bed, the mermaid caught in the Caribbean world was from the original world.
For Chen Mo, ordinary women are no longer attractive to supermodel-level playthings.
Perhaps only a special woman like Serena who has the aura of a childhood goddess, or is a world protagonist, or both, can be attracted to Chen Mo.
But even so, in his eyes, these women could not even fill his palace, let alone become the mistress of the empire.
After all, no matter what, the first woman to live in his palace was Littorio, a now-god-level ship girl. Without any special qualities, there was no way that Chen Mo would care about her and favor her.
So when faced with his cousin's teasing, Chen Mo just responded calmly: "Cousin, if you are not afraid that my cousin will know about it, how about I arrange some Eldar girls for you? I guarantee it will be better than Guilliman's god of death.
The God's Choice is more exciting, and the authentic Dark Eldar Haemonculi lady guarantees that you will experience the true dark art."
"Dark arts or something, cousin Jun, you should use it yourself. Chen Yujun has to go home to accompany your little niece to do homework, so he doesn't have time." Just when Chen Mo said this, the Red Dragon Queen It appeared next to the two of them again, tearing apart the space.
Although she was dressed like a housewife and even held a vegetable basket in her hand, no one would really regard her as a housewife when she just tore apart the space between the two worlds with her bare hands.
Chen Mo's eyelids twitched and he whispered to his cousin: "Cousin, why does my cousin look more terrifying? Did you go to Ginza to drink wine recently to let her know?"
"What nonsense are you talking about! I have never gone to a high-end nightclub in Ginza to drink wine with my colleagues in the hospital, nor have I opened champagne." Chen Yu quickly brushed off the suspicion on himself, and at the same time passed the blame to Chen Mo and said: "You didn't send it to me. That diamond, a diamond as big as a planet is something you can't bear to part with! After being processed by your cousin-in-law, that big diamond is now a super artifact, raising her power to a higher level and tearing apart the space of two worlds with bare hands. Yes, it’s already a piece of cake for her!
So don’t talk nonsense next time, you can really hear her blessing on you! I don’t want to go home and kneel on the washboard!”
"I know my cousin can hear it, I did it on purpose." Chen Mo showed a sinister smile at this moment. He did not feel guilty at all for making his cousin feel guilty. Instead, he smiled and joked: "This is to create an opportunity for you to please my cousin." Cousin-in-law, think about what gift you need to give her at this time."
However, to Chen Mo's expectation, the Red Dragon Queen showed her good wife side at this time, directly pulled Chen Yu away from Chen Mo, and then said with a smile: "Forget it, I am not The kind of woman who likes vanity and needs gifts to satisfy her.
And compared to you two brothers cheating on each other, Chen Mojun, why don’t you prepare your ceremony for becoming a god?
Judging from the speed at which this power of faith is gathering, when the sun rises tomorrow morning, it should be able to meet the start-up criteria for the ceremony, right?"
Perhaps Hiromi Jonouchi, the former female doctor, could not understand all this, but now the God of Scarlet Judgment and the Supreme Red Dragon Queen of the Dragon Clan can clearly perceive the positive joy and joyful emotions that the entire Kaltim is now filled with. Mixed with the superficial faith in Chen Mo, the new god who was about to be born, it was transformed into the pure power of faith by the statues erected in the city, and was instilled into the surrounding earth.
In the view of the Red Dragon Queen, this matter is undoubtedly more important than the two brothers cheating on each other to enhance their relationship.
But Chen Mo seemed a little indifferent to this, and just shrugged and said: "All the preparations that need to be made have been made. Success or failure only depends on tomorrow. If everything goes well, I will naturally be able to succeed in becoming a god, but if it doesn't go well..."
Having said this, Chen Mo also picked up the wine glass and poured himself a glass before saying: "Are there not many quasi-gods who have died in the process of becoming a god? I just hope that tomorrow I won't even take my soul." Go in, if that's the case, cousin..."
Chen Mo looked at Chen Yu solemnly and begged him: "The empire is my hard work. If I really fail to become a god and disappear, then this country will be left to my little niece. Please help take care of it." this country."
"What nonsense are you talking about? With me and your cousin-in-law as two supreme gods, how can you fail to become a god? It doesn't exist." Chen Yu knew that Chen Mo was just nervous, so he assured his brother, just like when he and he
Chen Mo made the same promise as an elder brother when he was a child.
