……

Like the Menesian Empire, El Dorado worshiped many gods, with a total of 2000 gods.Because people believe that there are different gods corresponding to everything in the world, such as the earth, air, rivers, sky, sun, moon, animals and plants, these gods are tangible, or are natural phenomena, or animals, or plants, or Animal heads.

Among them, the most powerful and most authoritative powerful god is honored as the Nine Pillars God by the Golden Kingdom, which is almost the same as the imperial religious system.

The Nine Pillars Gods are still the official ones of the empire:

Atum, the sun god.

God of the Underworld Osiris.

Nut, god of the sky.

Luna Thoth.

Tefnut, god of rain.

Geb, god of the earth.

Isis, the guardian god of the dead.

Seth, the god of fire and drought.

God of War Shu.

In addition to the first time, Iher, the god of plants and metallurgy, and Obelisk, the god of punishment, also occupy an extremely important position in the belief system of El Dorado.Inside the hub, the worship of the God of Punishment is even higher than that of the Nine Pillars God, which seems to be very different from the belief system of the empire.

Because in the official belief of the Menesian Empire, there is no God of Punishment, not even among the people.

In addition, the priests and priests of the El Dorado possessed extraordinary powers that were not limited to divine spells.

In addition to the divine spell driven by spiritual power, they also have another more powerful power system-the divine descent technique.

In the El Dorado, priests and priests can gradually gain the trust of the gods through communication with the gods, and thus gain the power bestowed by the gods.Among them, the most pious and the closest to the gods can even summon the gods to come to the world and bring divine punishment to the enemy.

This is also the reason why the Priest Sacrifice Group has ruled for so long and their status is still as stable as Mount Tai-they have the power to overwhelm everything!

Ekhtaton City, the royal court's study.

The cabinet participates in politics, Ptolemy, the chief officer of the Precepts Academy Senide, the chief officer of the Garrison Academy Percy Bussen, the chief officer of the Planning and Inspection Institute Ai Quin, the chief officer of the Buzhen Academy Ai Quin, the chief officer of the French Court Andy Yabu, Nine Tier, the head of the Sikyong Yuan, sat across the desk and watched the materials that Ivan had sorted out during this time.

In the process of viewing the materials, the expressions on the faces of these high-ranking imperial officials fluctuated from joy to sorrow—it was joy to see the etiquette, customs, and culture of the El Dorado and the Empire so similar, and it was sad to see the power of the priest religious group; After Termos, the Xibei sun king and his wife, they were completely devastated.

Obviously, they cannot accept the rule of the El Dorado by these two counterfeit people, based on the concept of kingship manifested in the world in accordance with the will of God.Since the kingship is all false, then the legitimacy of the El Dorado is questionable... In other words, the existence of the El Dorado is no longer able to shake the legitimacy of the empire!

Aware of this scene, Ivan became more confident, and then calmly took the newspaper and read his own news.Waiting patiently until the high-ranking officials read all the materials and began to discuss in whispers, he cleared his cough and attracted everyone's attention:

"Cough cough cough! This is the information obtained by the spy organization's long-term investigation and search. What do you think?"

"His Majesty!"

Sened, the chief officer of the Discipline Academy, stood up first, and said indignantly: "According to the information you investigated, El Dorado is indeed a living fossil of history, and has inherited a lot of gold civilization heritage. But their political system and religion It has completely gone astray, allowing religious forces to interfere with administrative power, this is simply nonsense!"

"Yes, yes, it's just child's play!"

"That's right! How can a theologian be allowed to interfere with government affairs? Isn't this an outsider's job?"

"This is a disorder of power! We should also learn from it!"

The senior officials all showed righteous indignation and responded empathetically - as bureaucrats of the secular regime, none of them could accept religious organizations interfering in administrative power, and of course they would sneer at the expanding religious power in El Dorado.

Seeing that he was recognized by everyone, Seinide became more imposing, and said with his head held high:

"And what's the matter with those two Sun Kings? How can the royal family have that kind of appearance? They are clearly puppets launched by the priest group! I don't think they are the blood of the Sun God at all, but garbage from mixed blood. The ultimate arrogance! El Dorado may have the same source as the Empire, but they have obviously grown crooked. In this case... as brothers, we have a reason to help El Dorado cut off the crooked branches, straighten the trunk, and let them return to the sun God rules!"

Returning to the rule of the sun god, this is a typical pun: one can be interpreted as restoring the religious group to its original colors.The second is that it can be understood as returning the El Dorado to the rule of the descendants of the sun god.

"As it should be!"

"The people of El Dorado have been blinded by lies for too long, it is time for them to see the truth."

"We should launch a surgical war to destroy the original ruling group of the El Dorado and let the people return to the glory of the Sun King."

All the high-ranking officials present were elites who had worked in the officialdom for many years, so how could they fail to guess Yiwen's thoughts.

From the moment they saw the two false kings highlighted in the video, they knew that Yiwen had already moved to kill and found a suitable reason to start the war.That being the case, let’s go with the flow... Anyway, the rulers of the El Dorado are fake, use war to destroy their deformed political system, and then treat the remaining people well.

This kind of thinking is a subtle ideology, which is true of high-ranking officials and the people.

From the perspective of the traditional Menesians, since the Sun King of the empire is orthodox, and El Dorado and the Empire come from the same source, they should abandon the false king and obey the real Sun King.

If they can't do it themselves, brothers can help each other.

No one will feel guilty for this kind of war, because in the eyes of the subjects of the empire, it is a right to correct mistakes and a sacred and inviolable unification war.

"His Majesty……"

In an impassioned declaration of war, Ptolemy raised his head hesitantly, and looked at the Sun King behind the desk: "Your Majesty is the sun that never sets in the empire, and destroying the little El Dorado is naturally a trivial matter. I just don't know gold Congress will not have countermeasures...their countermeasures may not be stronger than His Majesty, but as long as they can destroy Heberon Star, it is enough."

"That's right...what's Sir Ptolemy thinking?" Ivan met his gaze.

Looking at the pair of restrained but still dazzling eyes, Ptolemy couldn't help squinting his eyes, and replied in a deep voice:

"In order to prevent the people of the El Dorado from being desperate and destroying Heberen, we should not expose our existence in front of them. We should convert the external war into an internal war that can help the people. This can minimize the pressure on the people." Resist. Your Majesty can do it yourself... You are the real Sun King, and you have unparalleled strength, so it is not difficult to seize power from the false king and the religious group."

"As long as His Majesty abolishes the false king and takes over the power, and after a period of time when the rule is stable, the Golden Kingdom can be directly merged with the Empire! The Empire and the Golden Kingdom come from the same source, and we don't need to spend much effort to digest the local people. In this way, not only can the resistance and loss be reduced to the lowest point, but it can also absorb the ancient technology of El Dorado to the greatest extent!"

Chapter 241 God's Punishment

El Dorado, Western Continent.

Bright silver stars dotted the night, like crystal and shining gems, illuminating the Western Continent immersed in a festive atmosphere.Under the quiet and distant night, an inconspicuous meteor streaked across the sky. It seemed to have no track, and it seemed to follow the track, and finally fell to the riverside.

boom--!

Accompanied by a huge roar, the deep crater collapsed out, and the river bank caused huge waves due to the vibration, causing ripples one by one.A gust of cold wind with a dark atmosphere blows from the place where the meteorite fell. The wind and sand mixed with withered grass splashed like raindrops. With the turbulence of the airflow, a ghost-like figure emerged.

From his point of view, a classical city lies on both sides of the river, outside the city there are urban areas piled up with boulders, and there are scattered small towns.The stars are brightly lit, and straight and slender watchtowers rise from the ground, surrounding the city far and near.

A little closer, a rammed-earth avenue follows the river and leads directly to the city gate in the distance.There is a stone tablet at a certain distance on both sides of the two roads, and there are traces of burning candles on the stone tablet; it can be imagined that the road in the first half of the night must be brightly lit, just like the glorious road connecting the eternal paradise in mythology.

"In this kind of festival, the death of the Sun King Lei and the precariousness of the Millennium City must be regarded as an ominous omen." In the hazy smoke, an indifferent voice gradually sounded, like a devil whispering.

Before the words fell, the ghostly figure had already disappeared, as if dormant in the darkness.
