Chapter 185 I am the law of God, and the great Son of God is coming!
Everything was silent on the battlefield, whether it was the English side or the Cavendish soldiers who were standing on the wall looking into the distance.
They were all stunned at this moment, as if time had stood still.
The huge dragon head fell to the ground with a look of unwillingness and fear, and blood flowed like a small river.
Because his death was too sudden, Rex didn't even recover his original appearance, but died as a dragon.
It’s a pity that he is still a druid in essence. No matter the blood, dragon scales or other organs of the dead dragon, they do not have the real mystery of the dragon.
On the top of the city wall, Deya's brother Gavin Cavendish looked at the scene in disbelief and murmured, "Did Deya advance to the sixth ring?"
The immortal power that Deya just displayed, which was like dominating the world, was definitely a mythical power.
It’s just that Gavin had never seen or heard of such mythical power.
His mood at this moment was also quite complicated.
In his memory, his younger brother has always been a weak person who is very resistant to fighting and killing.
Therefore, even though he was not actually suitable to be a border earl, his father had no choice but to train him to be the heir.
At that time, Gavin felt very disappointed with his younger brother, but other than that he had no other emotions.
There are not many conflicts between the father and son and between the brothers in the Cavendish family. Gavin, as the older brother, also takes good care of his younger brother.
But who could have thought that in just two years, everything would change.
The speed of change is so fast that it is dizzying and makes it impossible to think carefully.
When he was still a five-ring cavalry general, Deya was not even an extraordinary professional.
And now, after trying his best, he finally became a six-ring master who mastered the power of mythology. He was considered a top person on this continent.
It only took Deya two years to reach the same number of rings as himself.
No, that is not the same number of rings at all. The power that Deya is showing now has even exceeded the scope of a normal extraordinary professional.
The undead army was enough to destroy a country, and even a seven-ring dragon was torn to pieces by Deya in one move, killing it instantly.
That was Rex Garcia, the most famous strong man on this continent before Deya became famous, and he was known to be the one closest to the eighth ring!
But even such a druid who could transform into a dragon was killed by Deya in one blow.
Today, Deya gives people a feeling of being perfect and powerful with no flaws.
Other extraordinary professionals, even if they have been promoted to the seventh ring, are unable to resist a country and will still die if surrounded by a large army.
But Deya is different. He can even destroy a country by his own strength!
'The Immortal King', Deya is now worthy of this title.
Earl Cavendish also sighed and said, "I even doubt whether Deya has already become an eighth ring. Such power is not something that a sixth ring person can possess."
Gavin nodded vigorously, agreeing with his father.
Both the father and the son were certain that Deya would become an Eight-Ring in the future and become a terrifying existence like a demigod walking on the earth.
By then, the Cavendish family will become one of the most prestigious families in the whole world!
"Oh oh oh!!"
"Lord Deya!!!"
"Lord Deya!!!"
"..."
Deafening cheers came from Cavendish Territory, and the joy and singing of victory rang out proudly.
The British soldiers had complicated expressions at this time.
The Son of God chosen by the goddess killed Rex Garcia, and they should have cheered for the Son of God.
But Rex was their commander before all, had great prestige in England, and was admired by countless people.
But now, the idol they worshipped was killed by the Son of God. They were filled with mixed emotions and could hardly cheer.
Instead, it was the chaplains in the army whose thinking changed the fastest.
The status of a pastor comes from his ability.
Like mages, priests have a daily limit on spell slots, but when they have spell slots, they can use many healing spells.
These divine arts are extremely useful whether they are used to treat the lower-class civilians or to heal those in high positions of power.
The Dawn Church in England is not stupid. The church knows very well that the foundation of its rule lies in faith.
Therefore, the pastor’s treatment is free. Even the poorest people will be treated by the pastor if they come to the church.
Of course, only those who are seriously injured or seriously ill can benefit from the priest's magic. In order to save magic slots, for common illnesses, they can only find some pharmacists to treat themselves.
It is this kind of welfare that has enabled the church to gain the broadest popular base.
A church that truly possesses extraordinary powers is completely different from those religions that only deceive people.
It is also because of this that pastors are respected and have a very high status in English society.
To become a priest, one needs to have a firm belief in the goddess. Whether from the perspective of faith or one's own interests, the priests of the Goddess of Dawn will absolutely only follow the teachings of the goddess.
Therefore, seeing Deya defeat Rex in such an easy and carefree way, the priests all knelt on the ground with fanatical expressions and shouted in unison:
"Long live the Son of God!"
"Long live our Son of God, Deya Cavendish!"
"..."
These pastors seemed to be afraid that if they spoke in a lower voice they would be disrespectful to God, and each one was shouting at the top of his lungs, one more desperate than the other.
Their shouts also aroused the emotions of the British soldiers. Under the influence of the pastor, the soldiers shouted loudly:
"God's son!"
"God's son!"
"God's son!"
"..."
At first, the shouting was disorganized, but it soon turned into a torrent. The roar of hundreds of thousands of people made people's hearts surge, and the shaking earth was rumbling.
But in the midst of such excitement, someone was out of place.
When Rex's adjutant saw Rex dead and heard the deafening shouts, he laughed at himself:
"Lord Rex, I didn't expect that in the end, no one would stand on your side. In this case, let me be loyal to you to the end!"
The adjutant took a deep breath and shouted, "...If you still remember the favor of Lord Rex, join me and fight him!"
The adjutant took the lead, bursting with powerful mythical power, and rushed towards Deya in the distance.
The two thousand soldiers around him were in chaos at first, but soon, these corpses of Rex's personal guards also shouted loudly and rushed over together with the adjutant.
When Deya saw this, he shook his head and said, “He seems to be brave and loyal, but he chose the most foolish approach.
Rex, although I have no feelings for Earl Austin, he is still an ally of our Cavendish family after all, and now I have avenged my ally.
Now let me send your loyal men to see you!"
Deya's mythical power surged again, preparing to meet the impact of these two thousand people.
But there is no need for De Ya to take action at all.
When the army of England saw that these people dared to rush towards their Son of God, they fanatically raised their weapons and began to encircle and suppress them.
Two thousand soldiers plus the adjutant didn't even have a chance to fight against Deya in the end. They were overwhelmed by the British army and died completely on this land.
Seeing this, Deya retracted his "Immortal King" posture, and walked step by step on the bloody battlefield towards the Cavendish city ahead.
The army knelt on the ground and prayed devoutly under the guidance of the pastor.
The goddess's scepter in Deya's hand also trembled slightly, making Deya feel the strong faith condensed in this bone scepter of the spine.
The city gate slowly opened. Earl Cavendish and his eldest son stood at the city gate, leading the Cavendish Knights of Thorn to welcome Deya's return.
Although the Earl and Gavin had smiles on their faces, they did not rush up to hug him. Instead, they stepped aside humbly and respectfully welcomed Deya's arrival.
This was what the two had just discussed. At this time, they could not treat Deyad as their own child or brother, but had to treat him as God's spokesperson on earth.
Only in this way can Deya's prestige be preserved, and only in this way can Deya become the son of the dawn walking on the earth!
The British army and the soldiers of Cavendish, who had been fighting to the death before, seemed to have put aside all their prejudices at this moment. Under the merciful light of the Goddess of Dawn, they forgot about war and hatred and welcomed the arrival of peace.
Deya walked into the city step by step. There were no flowers and no applause, only piety and respect on the faces of the people kneeling on both sides of the road.
……
At the Cavendish ancestral home, the atmosphere finally became lighthearted after no outsiders were around.
But even so, the change in Deya's identity and status at this time made many people tremble in front of Deya.
For example, the maids, such as Austin and Count Laurent's son, they were all respectful and humble in front of Deya. Only Bridget, Deya's sister-in-law, had no reverence at all. When she saw Deya, she ran over, hugged him tightly, and punched his back and said excitedly:
"Well done, Deya, you killed Rex and avenged my father!"
Deya grinned, even though he was now a six-ring strong man and had the status of God's Chosen One.
But as a wizard, he was still no match for the barbarian's brute strength. In Bridget's embrace, he felt that his bones were about to break.
Fortunately, Bridget didn't hold him for too long. She let go of Deya, wiped the tears from her eyes and laughed, "It's a pity that I don't have the chance to kill Rex myself."
Finally, she shook her head again: "That's not right. With my strength and talent, I'm afraid I won't have such an opportunity in my lifetime. No matter what, I have to thank you."
Deya whispered, "This is what I should do, sister-in-law."
After a pause, he continued, "...You guys take care of Lamia and Mavis. I have something to discuss with my father and brother."
Everyone in the room nodded. The war was not over yet. At least they had not overthrown King Susaytani.
But at this time, the war seemed to be over, because Susaitani no longer had the power to resist the Cavendish family!
In the study upstairs, the Earl looked at his son. He smiled and didn't say much. He just patted Deya on the shoulder:
"You now have much more power and influence than I do. As a father, I have nothing more to teach you. Everything that follows depends on you."
The Earl also felt incredible.
I still remember that two years ago, Deya suddenly came to him one day and, as if he had suddenly realized something, suggested that he rebel against the king.
At that time, the Earl only thought that Deya had such an idea, but he did not expect that he actually had such strong action ability.
Today, two years later, everything that Deya had told him at that time has almost come true, even far exceeding the plan at that time.
Because now even the Kingdom of Anglo has surrendered, even faster than Susaitani.
"What are your plans next?"
The Earl picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then asked Deya with a serious expression.
At this point, the opinions of the Cavendish family are no longer important, and the opinions of this Earl are no longer important. What really matters is Deya's opinion, the opinion of this Son of God.
"Next, I will go back to the Golden City to stabilize the situation in England."
Deya already had a plan in mind and slowly told us his next plan.
Earl Cavendish nodded slightly and said, "We should go to England first. England is a religious country. With your current status as the Son of God, you can integrate England without much resistance."
This has been proven not long ago. The 150,000 British troops outside the city did not even have the slightest thought of resistance when facing Deya, and they cheered him devoutly.
Earl Cavendish didn't know why this happened, nor did he know that Deya had the ability to make the priests of the Church of Dawn lose their divine powers.
But judging from the results, the Church in England is very supportive of Deya, even a little too devout.
"Once England is integrated, we can launch a full-scale attack on Susetani. I am not planning to use the English army."
Deya's words made the Earl smile and said, "You did the right thing. For hundreds of years, England and Susetani have been at odds with each other, and the hatred between the two sides is not so easy to let go.
If you use the British army to attack Susaitani, it may backfire and provoke Susaitani to resist. "
Deya also thought so. Even if both sides had the same beliefs, they were from different factions. It would be absolutely impossible to put aside their prejudices in a short period of time. This would require the efforts of at least two or three generations.
"With my current strength, it will be no problem for me to take down Susaitani. With England as our backing, we are already invincible."
Deya's negative energy space already has 6 in number, but most of the low-level undead creatures have just been abandoned by him, and they are all filled with corpses near the Third Cathedral.
Low-level undead creatures Deya can still be summoned by spells, but these mid- and high-level undead creatures require corpses to create.
He calculated that it would take him about one to two months to create an army composed entirely of undead creatures of the fourth ring and above.
The strength of this undead army will be further enhanced, and no one on this continent will be able to resist it.
The Earl said at this time: "The battle on the parliamentary and royalist fronts is also clear. This time we will definitely win."
Deya asked curiously, "Oh? Did Count Laurent win a great victory on the front line?"
Previously, the parliamentary front line could only be maintained under pressure from all sides. Deya thought that it was because of the strong ability of Count Laurent that he directly pushed back the Duke's coalition.
It was not until Earl Cavendish told him the truth that Deya was surprised and said, "Duke Campbell actually sent troops? It's really timely for him to send troops."
Deya smiled for a moment as he thought about Alfred's integrity and the fairness and justice of the Campbell family that had been passed down in Susaitani.
As expected, as long as politics is involved, these earls and dukes cannot be underestimated.
The timing of the Duke of Campbell's dispatch of troops was so clever that he dealt a thundering blow to the royalists at this time, allowing the Duke of Campbell to get some of the fruits of victory in the end.
If he had sent troops a little later, Duke Campbell would have been lucky to have been able to keep his position.
This is a really decisive person.
"That old guy is not simple."
Lord Cavendish also smiled.
After a pause, he continued, "...Next we will talk about what to do after overthrowing the king."
De Ya really wanted to tell his father not to open champagne at halftime, as it would be easy to set a flag.
But thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is no longer the halftime now. They have already won a decisive victory, unless His Majesty the King has some terrible strategic weapon in reserve.
Deya actually had the same idea as the king, which was to directly break off the feudal system of Susaitani and choose centralization.
But this idea was suppressed by Deya as soon as it came up. If he did this, the Cavendish family would become enemies with other nobles in the entire Sussetani, and another war would have to be fought.
Although Deya was not afraid and even believed that he would definitely win, it also made the Cavendish family seem too dishonest. Who would dare to believe the Cavendish family's promises in the future?
A newly established country will immediately lose its credibility.
So after thinking about it, Deya suggested: "This time our Cavendish family, or I, have contributed a lot, so when we share the benefits, we should get the biggest part.
The crown territory must belong to our family, and a portion of the destroyed dukedom must also be taken away, and the rest will be divided equally among the other nobles."
Such a distribution would not cause other nobles to say anything. Instead, they would rally around the Cavendish family, allowing the Cavendish family to govern the country more smoothly.
"After the Cavendish family takes control of Susaitani, there is only one thing we need to do, and that is to vigorously promote the Dawn Church and make Susaitani's faith reach the level of England!"
Deya's words made Earl Cavendish laugh out loud, and he applauded, "Well, Deya, your suggestion is very good."
He used to be afraid that his son would resort to violence to solve everything after gaining great power.
But Deya's advice made the count realize that his son was not only violent, but also wise enough!
Deya wants to vigorously develop the Church of Dawn in Susaitani. He has only one goal, which is to make Susaitani a country with a unified politics and religion, so that the position of king will gradually disappear.
As the son of God, Deya will be believed by all the believers of the Church of Dawn. Before they know it, Deya will become the nominal king of Susaitani and Inglo, and use faith to eliminate the years of conflict between the two countries.
And when this situation was formed, it no longer mattered whether the land was occupied by the nobles.
Because all of this will belong to the church, the nobles will gradually lose their status unless they follow the church and have one or two bishop-level priests in their families!
In this way, this continental island can achieve true unification!
Lord Cavendish said, "Deya, it seems that you have no intention of taking the throne."
Deya smiled and shook his head: "Being a king has too many restrictions, but if I am just the son of God of the Dawn Church, then I will have no restrictions."
The king must also abide by the constitution. If he tramples on the law at will, the result will be like the current King Susaytani, who will be opposed by all the nobles.
The church follows the laws of God. As God’s spokesperson on earth, Deya is the law of God!
Moreover, if the king was really overthrown, the entire Susaytani would be in a state of disrepair. The war had just ended and various internal affairs would be very troublesome.
If Deya became king himself, he would have to focus most of his energy on handling state affairs. How could he improve his own strength?
So it would be better to leave this matter to your father or elder brother, and you just need to manage the church.
The management of the church is much simpler. Although England's elite army was destroyed, the entire internal management system is still there, so he can just be a hands-off boss.
The church in Susaitani had lost all its top leaders, which provided an opportunity for the Anglo-Saxon Church to enter Susaitani and establish a new church.
Deya's calculations were going very smoothly.
Earl Cavendish did not ask about Deya's identity as the 'Son of God'. He would not ask about such a sensitive matter if he could. It must involve a big secret.
He just sighed and said, "Deya, you really know how to find things for me to do. At my age, I still have to deal with so many things."
Although he said so, the Earl couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
The Cavendish family is about to become the only ruling family on this continental island, truly great!
……
In the Golden City, the capital of England, when people heard that the Son of God was coming back, the whole city was filled with cheers.
Newspaper and periodical organizations in the Golden City worked overtime to write and distribute articles.
"The great Son of God will come to his loyal England!"
"That's not what you wrote before. What you wrote before was 'The vile necromancer from Susetani is taking over the City of Gold'!"
"Bullshit, I was blind and didn't see the majesty of the Son of God. I have already confessed in front of the goddess, don't mention this matter again!"
The editor-in-chief of the newspaper was shocked and quickly covered his subordinate's mouth.
