The system has to be used even if it is pulled

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye. In the eyes of others, Zhao Yuanlang, who is in his fifties, has already focused on the task of nurturing offspring.

On the 20th birthday of his eldest son, Aurelius, Zhao Yuanlang handed over the Caesar crown and cane, which symbolized the successor to the empire, to his son in the great square of the Pantheon in Rome, in full view of the public, and announced that Aurelius would become the successor to the empire, the Imperial Caesar, and live in the newly built Caesar Palace east of the Imperial Palace centered on the Castel Sant'Angelo.

Zhao Yuanlang and Ansuosa had five children. The eldest daughter, Thetis, married the son of the Duke of Isauria. The second child is now Caesar Aurelius. The third and fourth children, Perseus, were respectively named Duke of Sardinia-Corsica and Duke of Epirus at the age of 9. The youngest daughter was only years old and was educated in the palace.

However, a team of messengers rushed in from the southeast corner of the square. They quickly passed through the crowd in the square and handed the letter sealed in a bamboo tube to Zhao Yuanlang.

Has the Viking Age arrived? Zhao Yuanlang looked at the news coming from the north. Thousands of Vikings, riding on warships, began to invade the European continent from the Scandinavian Peninsula under the call of a heroic king.

Under the guise of traders, they brutally plundered coastal cities as soon as they landed. The fragmented Britannia region was the first to be plundered, and countless items and women were taken away by the Nordic barbarians. Even a large part of their northern region was captured by the Nordic people led by the hero king.

They wantonly burned, killed and looted in Britannia, causing more people to flock to England in the south. They even launched a new independence movement in Saxony, and countless Nordic people rose up. The entire Saxony region was lost in an instant. Kaotian, who was restrained by the Umayyad Empire in the south, had to lead his army back to Saxony.

Blood flowed like a river, and Kaotian suffered heavy casualties, and the Nordic barbarians suffered even more. However, this group of Nordic barbarians were loyal followers of the Germanic polytheism. They firmly believed in the will of their gods. The Germanic people would wreak havoc on the world, and expelling Catholicism from the Nordic region would be the moment when the Germanic polytheism rose.

The Kingdom of Heaven was attracted to the Germanic polytheism in the north. This was a war of faith, a war between the Nordic countries and the Kingdom of Heaven. Countless angels and the Nordic gods started a showdown!

Good opportunity! It's time to steal home, Lord! Eat shit!

In the royal palace hall of Castel Sant'Angelo, Zhao Yuanlang sat on a high throne. At his lower left was the heir to the empire, his son, the Imperial Caesar Aurelius. Other princes, ministers, and countless scholars stood respectfully in two rows.

The people below were whispering. They had all been infected by Zhao Yuanlang's evil spirit, so they roughly knew Zhao Yuanlang's plan.

"Silence!" As the eunuch beside Zhao Yuanlang's throne shouted, all the princes and ministers lowered their heads.

"As you all know, the entire empire is just hiding under the glory of the Lord. We still believe in Greek polytheism, but the Nordic gods in the north have given us a chance. In the battle between the Kingdom of Heaven and the Nordic gods, the reformed Germanic polytheism has exploded with unparalleled strength and actually resisted Charlemagne's attack. This is our chance!"

All the ministers looked at Zhao Yuanlang fanatically. They broke the crosses in their hands one after another, and even some bishops threw down the Bibles in their hands.

"We now have a golden opportunity to forever reshape our faith. But we must proceed with caution, for once we have established our new faith, we cannot change our minds! Let's begin the discussion!"

"Yes! My Lord!"

Everyone began to express their opinions. They chattered for a long time but could not come to a conclusion. Zhao Yuanlang frowned and looked at his son hopefully.

Aurelius, who was sitting on the throne, slowly stood up, and the noisy princes and ministers suddenly quieted down.

"Father, as the first person to make the Reformation a reality, I believe you have the right to come up with a plan to set the new nature, doctrine and leadership of the religion," Aurelius said slowly.

The other princes and ministers who rushed over also praised Aurelius' words one after another, shouting that Lord Aurelius was right.

Zhao Yuanlang stood up slowly and looked solemnly at everyone under the throne: "The reason why the Roman Empire lasted for a long time is its indomitable spirit. From Caesar, Augustus, the five wise emperors, and those who have sung their declarations in history, they all defended their homes and protected their people. Although our empire is so large and its military is so strong, there will always be times when the empire is negligent in the face of Islam, Christianity, and the unscrupulous Germanic polytheism, so we have established the religious characteristics of indomitable spirit. In defending our homes, our army will be stronger, and our people will be more resistant to enemy missionaries. We may never spread the worship of our gods to every corner of the world, but we are committed to ensuring that the land of our ancestors will not succumb to missionaries and pagans."

"Your Majesty the Emperor is wise!" All the princes and ministers bowed their heads and saluted respectfully towards Zhao Yuanlang.

"We learn from and absorb the advantages of other religions. Our ancestors deserve our respect and worship. We should remember them in an appropriate way. They must have a special status! So I think our religion allows ancestor worship. Secondly, doubting the legitimacy of a ruler who is in power under the eyes of the gods is a blasphemy to life. His subjects should show loyalty and faith to the ruler."

Zhao Yuanlang's two statements not only let everyone see that his family could become a channel for canonization, but also protected the status of the ruling class very well. They unconditionally agreed to these two statements.

"Finally! As the ruler of the Roman Empire, I have been the high priest of the Greek polytheism since ancient times! Secular and spiritual power are intertwined, and it is meaningless to separate them into two positions. Therefore, I decided that I will serve as the high priest, and the high priest will be passed down together with the throne!"

"Your Majesty, Holy Ming!"

"Sign my decree! Greek polytheism will become the state religion! Christianity and Islam will be expelled from our empire! For Zeus!"

.........

The world was shocked. The ancient Greek polytheism suddenly appeared in the Roman Empire and was quietly and unanimously supported by the entire empire. The cross and the moon were impacted by this news!

Compared with the old routine, the stable ruling methods and thunderous military strength of the Roman Emperor Zhao Yuanlang made the Greek polytheism ready to fight against the corrupt and barbaric enemies at any time.

Reborn from the ashes, it is still better than before. The West will always be the West of the Roman Empire!

As the chief warrior beside the Lord and the supreme commander of the angel army, Michael led the angel army to fight against the Norse gods in Northern Europe. Both sides seemed to have tacitly agreed to this battle of faith. Neither Odin nor the Lord took action, but they were both paying attention to the battlefield at the same time.

As the sheriff of heaven, the guardian of the Garden of Eden, and the disseminator of faith, Gabriel was the first to receive information about the changes in the Roman Empire in the underworld. She angrily grasped the horn in her hand, and her figure turned into a meteor and fell towards the city of Rome.
