Give Me the Name of God

Chapter 263 Disaster of Famine

Previously, Manda, like everyone else, had a misunderstanding. He believed that only high-level believers had the ability to keep artifacts.

But he quickly realized one thing. Strength is a very complex concept. Although the strength of high-level believers is powerful, it is not as powerful as the master of a country.

The king is a believer of Zeus. He has a strong desire for artifacts. He also has the ability to protect artifacts, which is recognized by Zeus.

The only problem is that the king's level should not be high and it would be difficult to resist the erosion of the artifact.

But this is not important. There must be capable people around the king to help him find ways to resist the erosion. Even if he really cannot resist the erosion, it has nothing to do with Manda.

Seeing the Shield of Aegis and the Lightning Scepter, the king's sweat flowed from his forehead to his heels. He was so excited that he almost forgot his identity, and he almost plunged into the wooden box.

He restrained his impulse with difficulty and let the guards carry the wooden box to the treasure house. After a long period of calm, he finally spoke:

"Kretsch Monchik, what reward do you want?"

Manda did not raise his head. He was not completely out of danger at this moment, because it was difficult to fathom the king's thoughts.

"Your Majesty, my only wish is to serve a great monarch forever, and that will not change in my lifetime."

Life after life! forever!

These two words made the king's body tremble uncontrollably.

"The Sheriff Stanton in the east of the city is too reckless, the Sheriff Hobbs in the west of the city is the lackey of God's Punisher, and the Sheriff Dornock in the north of the city is a loyal and upright man, but he lacks some wisdom. The king needs it. A Chief Sheriff, this position will be yours."

Manda quickly knelt down and said: "Thank you, your great Majesty!"

The king did not rush to let Manda stand up. He drew his sword and came to Manda.

This made Manda very nervous. Did he want to kill someone and silence him?

If he really dared to do this, then Manda would have to risk his life and become a regicide.

Manda was worried, and the king put the sword on his shoulder and whispered: "Your title is not worthy of your official position. I want you to see my generosity, Krechi Monchik, As the master of the Romulu Kingdom, I will officially canonize you as an earl, and in three days, a canonization ceremony will be held for you!"

Three days later, in the most majestic Golden Lion Hall of the palace, the ceremony took place as scheduled. Under the watchful eyes of the officials of the royal capital, Manda was canonized by the king. Not only did he become an earl, he also received a clan gift from the king. emblem.

In order to distinguish himself from the Marquis of Monchik's family, the king designed a new family emblem for Manda, shaped like a spear, symbolizing loyalty and bravery.

"Your Majesty the King, praise your greatness, praise your generosity, praise your glory!"

The king lightly hit Manda on the shoulder with his long sword and said with a smile: "Count Monchik, praise your loyalty, praise your bravery, and praise the great Lord of the Gods."

"Well……"

Manda shivered instinctively, and the Golden Lion Hall fell silent.

There was no Divine Punisher present, and many people knew that the king was a believer in Zeus.

But he exceeded all expectations by praising the Lord of the Gods in public.

In Rungersen's opinion, the king is changing his attitude and he will take more severe measures against the God Punisher.

In the opinion of the Minister of State, the king was bewitched by crafty people and had some impulsive ideas.

In the eyes of other ministers, the king seemed to have suppressed his emotions for too long and wanted to vent his emotions.

Only Manda knows the real reason. Zeus's artifact is too corrosive.

After the canonization, the king read out another document, appointing Manda as the chief magistrate. All the magistrates in the four regions of the royal capital must accept his jurisdiction. This also marked Manda's entry into the second rank of the royal capital's bureaucracy. echelon.

This made the ministers even more surprised. It was already unreasonable to confer a young man of civilian origin as an earl. Now that he was given such a high official position, it was impossible to guess the king's thoughts.

No one knows what magic spell Manda used to make the king appreciate him so much. There are also some prices behind the huge profits, but these prices are insignificant to Manda.

First, there was some estrangement between him and the general. Longgesen knew that Manda had intercepted the weapon of God's Punisher, which he was very satisfied with, but he didn't know what kind of weapon it was that could make the king give him such a generous sum. reward.

He once asked Manda, but Manda remained silent. This was the king's order, and he could not reveal the truth to anyone. Although Longgesen expressed understanding, he inevitably had a grudge.

Second, he was hated by Bucken. Bucken's weapon was lost, and Monchik was promoted to a noble rank. It was easy to connect the two things together.

Bucken discovered the "truth", but the "truth" he and the king saw were not consistent. Between lies and truth, Manda made a lot of money.

He got rid of Zeus's artifact, gained a title and official position, and the gains didn't stop there.

The king was responsible for guarding the artifact, which was also recognized by Zeus. From the old goat's mouth, Manda learned that Hermes appreciated this action very much. On the night of the canonization, his experience bar increased by a full 30%.

The next main task is to prevent Bucken from counterattacking, but Bucken is not in the mood to deal with Manda now, and a bigger opportunity is about to appear.

More than 10,000 refugees from the south arrived at the city two days later.

Manda has seen refugees before, but never such a large number of refugees. They are in rags, with sallow complexion and thin skin. They have lost all hope in life, but their primitive survival instinct is extremely strong.

Standing on the top of the city, watching more than 10,000 walking zombies frantically hitting the city gate, Manda seemed to have seen the end of the world coming.

The king was not unprepared for this. He had discussed the countermeasures with Longesen in advance: open the city gate and let the refugees enter the royal capital. In the name of the Lord of the Gods, he would awaken the belief in the ancient gods, unite the refugees, and take the opportunity to expel them. God's Punisher.

Longesen has prepared the weapons he has hoarded for many years. These weapons are enough to arm an army of nearly ten thousand people. If the general's plan can be implemented, the archbishop will be driven out of the royal capital. Next, Longesen will start to hunt down Action, chop off the Archbishop's head before he leaves Romuru Country.

As long as they see the Archbishop's head, the lords from all over the country will also see the king's attitude. As long as the Romulu Kingdom is united, it will be enough to withstand the counterattack of the Holy Kingdom of Divine Punishment. It only takes one victory to mobilize the fighting spirit of all the countries in the continent. God The era of the Punisher's reign is finally over.

What a perfect plan, but it was just a plan. When the news leaked out, the nobles of the royal capital immediately stood up and strongly opposed the king's opening of the city gate.

"Your Majesty, once the refugees enter the city, burn, kill, and loot, they will turn the royal capital into a hell on earth!"

"Your Majesty, there may be spies or even soldiers among the refugees. Once they enter the city, they will threaten your safety!"

"Your Majesty, the refugees entering the city will threaten the granary of the royal capital, and the civilians of the royal capital will also starve, or even cause riots!"

The nobles definitely don't want the refugees to enter the city, because they will definitely be the first to suffer, and the king does not care about their life or death. As long as the refugees rush into the royal capital, all the nobles will be looted.

As for the risks they mentioned, they are indeed possible, but relative to the benefits behind them, this risk is worth taking.

But the king still hesitated. He wanted to think about it for a few more days. During this period, he asked Longerson to try to stabilize the mood of the refugees.

It was difficult for the refugees to stabilize their emotions. What they wanted was food, but the king refused to open the granary.

At this time, no one expected that Bucken would actually lend a helping hand to Longerson.
