Otherworldly White Dragon Lord

The Holy See has an extraordinary influence in the entire eastern part of the Big Six. As a religious organization, the Holy See, in addition to spreading doctrines, in many respects also plays the same role as the Red Cross in Yalinyuan World’s Peacekeeping Forces, and it does indeed do so. For example, in the recent war between the Karthemian Empire and Kresses, the Holy See planned a church in the war zone between the two countries as a refugee camp to take in the wounded and refugees.`

Moreover, it is said that after the victory, Prince Augusta of the Karlshamn Empire did not sell the people and captives in the defeated areas as slaves, but adopted a gentle policy to release them. Part of the reason was that Augusta wanted to quickly calm the occupied areas. The strength of resistance, and another part of the reason is that the Holy See also hinted in private about the king who was going to be baptized.

The Holy See did not degenerate into a cloak of'righteousness' to do some evil deeds that can be called gangsters, gangsters, and villains. Instead, it did indeed do everything it should do. The main reason lies in the goddess Ishtar. There is no corruption. Both the pope and the pope understand one thing. On top of their heads, the gods really exist and are looking down on everything.

The power of religion has always been huge in human hearts. Some cults in the world of Yalin Plain can create a god out of thin air to show some false and ridiculous miracles, and even just rely on a mouthful of bewilderment to brainwash some people’s willingness to smear their livers and brains. , If the gods really exist, and they really have the power to make mankind feel incredible, then this effect might be a thousand times stronger.And precisely because of this, there is no shortage of fanatics among the believers of the Holy See and the Holy Capital.

Compared with many religions in the world of Yalin Plain, in ancient times, the upper-class nobles and dignitaries would be attracted at all costs. Both the Holy See and the Holy Capital chose to start with ordinary civilians, because the gods of the former are fictitious and the Pope considered It is more of one's own interests, and a hundred poor people are not worthy of a rich nobleman.And here God is real. God first considers the power of his belief, because it is related to whether his power is strong or not and even the possibility of continuing to exist. No amount of money is as good as God’s spirit. The divine power brought by the faith is important.The amount of faith determines the size of the divine power, and the size of the divine power determines the power of the gods and the area that they can control.`The larger the area, the more believers, the stronger the gods will be. In a world where power is respected, money and power are just derivatives.

Even if a god is rich in believers, if his followers are too few and his own strength is too scarce, he will be knocked down by another god and be replaced. Then the wealth of believers of that god and even the believers themselves will become the spoils of others.

For these reasons, although the idea that the Holy See's theocracy overrides the royal power is very heavy, many kings are quite jealous.However, the prestige of the Holy See among ordinary people has an unimaginable influence. Even people in some countries may not know the name of the king, but no one does not know the name of the only lord in the world.

Augusta also understands this very well. With the assistance of the Holy See, the Karthermen Empire does not even need to worry about riots in the occupied area after it has captured and annexed a country.The Holy See is enough to soothe all the people, and can quickly allow them to accept and integrate into the Karselmen Empire to become a part of the power of the empire instead of a burden that takes a long time to digest.

For Augusta alone, his plan can be mentioned infinitely, but Ishtar wants to give Augusta more than that!

"I know you are trying to restore the technology of the Overlord era, but it seems that progress is very slow, right?"

"It should be said that it has completely stopped now."

Augusta sighed. Almost all the war dividends against the Kingdom of Creses turned into ice crystals in the final blow of the half-elf female mage, even if the angel of the goddess, after purifying the crystallized valley, where can it come from? There are very few things turned out. It can be said that the entire investment has been squandered. Although various data have been backed up, they have to be restored unless another fat sheep like the Kingdom of Creesis is given to Kartherman. The empire scavenged it.Otherwise, the whole plan will not need to be thought about in more than ten years.

More importantly, the only half-elf female mage in the empire who could crack the ruins was also lost in the battle.`

Ishtar smiled softly as if he was comforting Augusta and said: "The Holy See can provide you with a sum of money to quickly restore your plan, and at the same time, it will send an emissary to continue to help you crack the Overlord. Various technologies left over from the times."

"Ha~ The Holy See also has the technology of the Overlord Era!? The great goddess, please forgive me to say bluntly. The Holy See under your command is really the greatest liar in the world. While preventing the world from digging into the overlord’s technology, it has a monopoly on the other These technologies."

Regarding the title of the'greatest liar', Ishtar still calmly said: "Knowledge has never been distinguished between good and evil, it all depends on the user ┉┉"

"If it refers to the Holy Capital, I can understand it."

Augusta, who has gradually calmed down, is no longer as fearful and unable to speak as at the beginning. Augusta strives to treat the goddess in front of him as an equal negotiating opponent, and try his best for himself without angering the other party. One side obtains more useful news and bargaining chips: "No matter how strong the Karthemian Empire’s army is, it is also the limit of mortals. If you enter the domain of the holy capital, you are attacked by the false gods behind the holy capital. Goddess, you Will you send your messenger to assist me?"

"This is incumbent, mortals belong to mortals, gods belong to gods! I will not allow any mortals to threaten my believers." Ishtar replied very quickly and firmly, but the goddess then said meaningfully "But Augusta! When your army is conquering the secular kingdom. I allow the Holy See to provide you with the necessary technology, funds, intelligence, etc., but I will not allow my messengers to directly intervene in battles between mortals, unless There are also mortals who intervene to break the balance. Otherwise, no matter how much setbacks you encounter, you will have to solve them with mortal power."

"To prove that we as human beings are the best?"

Ishtar nodded with satisfaction: "It's not wrong at all! As I said, I want you to defeat all foreign nations and the resistance of the holy capital on behalf of mankind, and prove that I have chosen you that are not wrong. If My power is involved too much. Even if I win this war, it does not mean that my choice is correct."

"Although I am always a little sad that I have become a bet of contention, I agree with you, Goddess Ishtar! Winning this war with our human hands instead of cheating is for the entire human race. It really proves that we deserve to be on top of this world."

The perfect face of the goddess showed a look called praise: "I can feel your heart burning like a flame┉┉"

"But I am not a racist, Goddess Ishtar!"

"But you still have the pride of being a human, Augusta!"

Ishtar spread out his hands like a cloth oracle: "Imagine that this world will bring about a huge change. Human beings will become the true masters of this world and push the whole world forward. For thousands of years Thousands of years later, people will remember this day, remember you! The person who caused this change!"

"I have to admit that you convinced me, Goddess Ishtar! At least now I can't find any reason for rejection." Augusta finally sighed and revealed the first smile in this long negotiation.

On the contrary, Ishtar nodded calmly: "It is very wise to choose Prince Augusta. I promise to do my best to realize your dream, and that is also my desire."

"But we have been talking for so long. For your favor and the price you are willing to pay, what kind of return will my Karselmen Empire pay? Forever loyalty to the Holy See, or legislating your doctrine as the state religion? "Augusta is not the kind of person who believes that free pies will fall from the sky. The goddess is willing to pay so much and will inevitably have some demands on herself.

"Is my doctrine legislated as the state religion?" Ishtar smiled slightly and stretched out his finger and shook it in denial: "You don't need to do this. I firmly believe that my philosophy is that walking on the right path will definitely be the world Accepted, because it’s correct, even if you deliberately hinder your people, they will make wise choices, embrace and believe in my doctrine. Otherwise, no matter what I do, my doctrine, including myself, will not be affected by this world. Accepted."

Surprisingly strong confidence and will, without any doubt about what he did, this is the goddess Ishtar.

Augusta had to admit that in terms of tolerance and mentality, he was really inferior to the goddess in front of him.

"Of course I also have requirements of you, Augusta! There is only one thing I want you to give, and that is to fulfill your duties as an emperor, follow the example of an overlord, dedicate yourself to your empire, and use your empire’s benefits Override your own interests."

"I don't understand what you mean, what you said should be something that any king would do!" Augusta looked puzzled.

Ishtar sighed: "Not any king can put the interests of the country above his own interests. Over the past ten thousand years, I have witnessed too many kings who ruined their own kingdom for their own benefit. Right, haven’t you just met one of the kings who are willing to betray their national interests?"

Kingdom of Creses┉┉

Augusta frowned and suddenly remembered the Kingdom of Kresses that had been at war with him recently, the Fool King who had betrayed his sister in order to ascend to the throne and ruined the entire kingdom of Kresses.

"Answer me Augusta, if you find that your child is not capable of inheriting the throne, what should you do?"

This time the goddess Ishtar asked Augusta a sharp question, a question sharp enough to make Augusta's complexion blue.(To be continued.)
