Alien Knights

Huggins walked into the king's audience room, saw Todd sitting at the table with his eyes closed, and said, Your Majesty, the people you asked me to notify are all here.

Todd waved his hand: Let them in.

Father Moore and Brother Joe each led a group of clergy and monks into the room.

Todd looked at these people and said calmly: What about the things I asked you to prepare?

Father Moore opened the wooden box he carried with him, took out a book with trembling hands, and handed it to the king.

Todd took the booklet, looked at the big words on the cover - United Version Bible, and sighed softly.

Your Majesty, this is the first draft, and we will continue to revise it later. Brother Joe took out a stack of pages that had just been transcribed from his arms: As for the establishment of a new religious sect, we first established an evangelical congregation according to your instructions, and sent documents criticizing the church and establishing Protestants to churches everywhere.

Moore took a heavy breath: Until now, I still can't believe that there are already many priests and bishops who have long been dissatisfied with the church's actions.

Todd opened the Union Version of the Bible, looked at the Holy Ten Commandments at the beginning, and said calmly: The best way to shake the believers of the church is to re-establish a new sect based on the Bible, and use the influence of the new sect to completely deny the legitimacy of the Church of the Father. paving the way for the founding of Protestantism.

Moore was a little puzzled: Your Majesty, if you are establishing a new sect, why do you still use the Bible as the basis of your religion? To be honest, the scholars and aliens in the city don't have the slightest liking for the church and the Bible.

Todd waved his hand and said: We are playing the banner of religious reform, not to overthrow the relevant beliefs of the Bible. Only in the name of the Bible can we naturally attract believers.

Brother Joe said excitedly: So, Your Majesty, what are we waiting for?! Let's hold the founding ceremony of the new sect!

Todd put the Union Bible on the table and shook his head slightly: Now is not the time to announce the establishment of a new denomination. We must tell those watching around us that we are not only willing to improve the decaying church, but we also have the ability to defeat their army!

Moore pondered: What do you mean?

After a while, at the Holy Acropolis, the allied forces of the church will come to the city. If we can win this battle, then we will be able to prove the power of the new sect to the world. At that time, it will not be too late to hold the ceremony.

After saying these words, Todd was silent for a while, and then said to the people in front of him: Your task is to continuously improve the theories of the new denomination during this period, and actively contact bishops and priests who are dissatisfied with the church.

After talking with the clergy and monks for a while, Todd waved them back first.

Facing the empty room, Todd stared blankly at the umbrella badge on the wall, without saying a word.

A sudden knock on the door brought him back to reality.

Come in.

Huggins gently opened the door, looked at Todd and said, Your Majesty, what do you want for dinner?

Todd glanced at the gradually sinking sunset outside the window, put his hands together, and stood up from the chair: Follow the usual practice, put the food in the palace garden, and I will eat there.

For this strange request, Huggins was only briefly taken aback, and then nodded and retreated.

Todd walked through the promenade of the palace, watched the beautiful scenery under the setting sun, and walked slowly to the gazebo in the palace garden.

Huggins had already directed the maid to prepare the table and meals. A group of people stood around the gazebo, quietly waiting for the king to take his seat.

Todd didn't rush to sit at the dining table, but walked to the wooden wall of the garden and looked at the night view of the city down the mountain through the wooden tower.

Your Majesty, Your Majesty?

Huggins yelled twice, and found that Todd didn't respond, he took two steps closer and said, Your Majesty, let's eat first, or the food will be cold.

Todd beckoned to Huggins, pointed to the direction of the port area and said with a smile: Do you remember? That's where we went to sea for the first time. I still remember that there was only a dilapidated plank road in that place, and our ship was snatched from the North Island pirates.

Huggins looked down the mountain as he said, and also laughed: I still remember that night on Waiheke Island, although your Majesty, you are not used to the cheese soup we cooked, you still bite the bullet and down a bowl.

A look of nostalgia appeared on Todd's face: Yeah, during that time, I didn't know much about anything, but I wanted to do everything. Thinking about it now, it's really not easy to get to where I am today.

Your Majesty, do you still remember what I said to you before going to sea?

Which sentence?

You asked me if I believed in miracles. I said I did, because you standing in front of me are a miracle.

Todd froze.

After a while, he gently closed his eyes and murmured, A miracle...

Are you worried about the battle of the Holy Acropolis in the near future? Huggins stood up straight and said firmly: The final victor must be us!

Todd looked at each other: Are you so sure?

Although the church coalition has 15,000 soldiers and has assembled nearly 30 kingdoms; we only have 1,900 members of the Muxi Knights, plus 2,000 defenders of the Holy Acropolis. It seems that this is a duel with a disparity between the enemy and us, but we have several reasons for victory!

tell me the story.

First, the Muxi Knights have 300 heavily armored knights. They are equipped with exotic horses, holy guard armor, dragon bones and abilities. I believe that no army in this world can stop them head-on!

Secondly, the city of the Holy Acropolis is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The moat, arrow towers, urns, and battlements are all available. The barbarians have sent a total of nearly 200,000 people three times, but they have not captured the city.

Third, the commander of this battle is Lord Cumberland...

Having said that, Huggins smiled and winked at Todd: With so many favorable factors, are you still worried that this battle will fail?

Todd smiled and shook his head.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of something: I asked you to take Queen Mary back to Muxi City before the war started. How is the matter going?

Huggins scratched his head and whispered, She won't come back.

What?

Huggins approached Todd and whispered: She told the person who picked her up that before His Majesty leaves the Holy Acropolis, the words left to her are to stabilize and defend the city, and she will not leave the Holy Acropolis until this is done.

Todd sighed deeply: I owe her too much.

Huggins looked up at the sky, and said to Todd, Your Majesty, the food is already cold. I'll ask the kitchen to warm it up.

Todd turned his gaze to the lights of thousands of houses in the city, with prosperity and loneliness in his eyes: It's okay, just put the food there, let me look at the city for a while longer.
