Chapter 46 The departure of the high priest...

The Second Era, January 1, 376.

At twelve o'clock in the morning.

The New Year Festival begins at noon and the whole process will last for an afternoon. Athenian citizens will hold a large-scale prayer ceremony under the guidance of the priests. The prayer ceremony is held in the central square, where several marble sculptures were made by the priests in special ways. The specific effect of Murphy is not very clear. After the prayer is over, the citizens will be blessed by the high priest, followed by miracles and the final ritual.

In the initial times, all matters had to be simplified because there was no such much manpower and material resources.

Murphy's plan is to wait for the future to be automatically improved by others.

There was almost nothing Murphy had to do in the entire festival process, and all the arrangements for religion were organized by the high priest. Moreover, even if Murphy was asked to arrange it, he didn't know what to do. All he had to do was stand on the altar in the central square when the miracle came.

Murphy can bow to the goddess, but religion must bow to him.

This is the minimum he can tolerate.

……………………

The reason why the earth has a dispute over divine power and royal power is that the god who claims to be God does not exist at all.

Even if it exists, it cannot affect reality due to rules.

According to the Old Testament of the Bible, God's most powerful power is just entering the dreams of believers.

But in this world, the goddess of wisdom Athena does exist.

And he personally came to Murphy.

She should understand what it means to take each person's needs, she needs faith, and Murphy needs power.

The auxiliary system of "Total War" is Murphy's greatest reliance. As a god, especially a goddess of wisdom, she should not be stupid enough to compete with herself for worldly power. An ignorant and cowardly person will only fear those small possibilities, and wish she could always hold everything firmly in her hands. This is a manifestation of incompetence and the worst solution.

Because it is impossible to do it.

The real ruler should consider turning the tables after preparing enough chips for themselves.

Would you not use a person because he is capable of surpassing yourself? Would you not cooperate with a person because he may be your opponent in the future?

If that's true.

Then you will never be a ruler, you can only hide in a corner and fantasize.

It is difficult to form absolute control in this world.

True rule is balance and constraint, and interests and chips are the best channels for control. Han Xin's talent is more than enough to be an emperor, but what is his final outcome?

If you can understand.

Then the path of the power is already in your heart.

Inexplicable fear is the best manifestation of incompetence and cowardice.

One pm.

The heavy snow in winter has almost melted.

The warm sunshine shone on everyone, and the entire inner city of Athens maintained a solemn and solemn atmosphere.

The citizens gathered quietly in the central square, and they would conduct the final prayer ceremony under the guidance of the priests. This is to ask for the gift of the goddess of wisdom Athena, requesting the blessings of the gods of Olympus, and also marking the true formation of the Athenian theocracy!

This was also the only ceremony where Murphy attended.

In prayer, Murphy must preside over with the high priest, which represents the harmony between the divine power and the royal power, and the gathering of power.

It means that everyone in Athens will work together to build everything better!

Even an idiot knows what terrible consequences will bring about by fratricide. In such an era when everything has just begun to establish a foundation, if there is a conflict between the Governor and the High Priest, I am afraid that the future of Athens will have no future! The centripetal force that Murphy has exhausted his efforts will probably be destroyed in an instant!

In this unknown world, citizens need the blessing of the Olympus gods and a spiritual sustenance.

But we need the leadership of the Governor and a smart and powerful leader!

Now only by clenching your fists and hitting someone is powerful.

This is a very simple truth.

As for who will eventually be the winner in the future, leave this question to the future.

If you don’t even have this confidence, you don’t have to talk about the future.

How can you take responsibility if you are afraid of your head and tail?

What's more, with the help of the "Total War" auxiliary system, who will have the last laugh in the future?

It's hard to say.

……………………

Above the central square.

The priests chanted ancient sacrificial essays, and the sound seemed to be filled with magical power, soothing the hearts of everyone.

Murphy stood in front of the altar, beside him was a solemn and solemn high priest, followed by the chief priest of the God of War and the priest of the God of Love, Helen. The last position was the generals promoted by Murphy.

This represents the current distribution of power throughout Athens.

As the chanting of the sacrificial texts was scattered from the statue of Athena, the goddess of wisdom.

Everyone was bathed in the light.

Murphy looked around and then knelt on one knee towards the statue of Athena, the goddess of wisdom. Under his leadership, everyone slowly knelt down towards the statue of the goddess. Then, under the guidance of the high priest, the citizens of Athens began to pray and whispered the ancient sacrificial texts inherited from the age of the gods. In the solemn and solemn religious atmosphere, everyone's spirit began to condense, and a trace of white light that was invisible to the naked eye also floated from everyone's body.

These white light spots condense into silk threads and are then connected to the statue of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, through the high priest.

The golden glow is even more abundant!

Everyone felt a warm breath in tranquility and harmony, and some diseases hidden in their bodies disappeared invisible.

Prayer ends.

Murphy slowly stood up, and in front of everyone, the high priest leaned over to him slightly, and then stood silently beside him.

This is another meaning to all, the citizens of Athens, the cornerstones and pillars of the territory.

Tell them.

Murphy, who represented the royal power, bowed his head to the gods of Olympus, but the high priest who wrote about religion had to bow to him!

If according to Middle Earth.

This is the order of superiority and inferiority.

It also means that rules and systems have been formed.

The citizens cheered loudly and praised Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and their wise and powerful lord.

The golden glow gradually dissipated.

The high priest's eyes as bright as stars fell on Murphy, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Her gentle eyes were staring at Murphy, who was standing on the altar and receiving the cheers and respects of citizens. The high priest showed a little hesitation in his expression. Then, she seemed to have made some difficult decision. Her fingers overlapped and she sang a hidden and deep spell in a low voice.

The gradually dissipated golden light suddenly condensed, as if it was influenced by some force.

These golden light gathered over Murphy and finally turned into a golden crown and floated above his head!

king!

king!!

king!!!

The citizens under the altar exclaimed in surprise!

I don’t know who was the first to kneel down, and it seemed like a wave. The citizens of Athens knelt down at Murphy one after another.

This is the will of the goddess!

They told themselves in this way that the goddess was telling them that a king would be born in Athens!

……………………

The crown condensed by golden light lasted for less than a few seconds.

On the statue of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, a white light that was invisible to the naked eye flashed, and the crown formed by golden light disappeared.

And the high priest's gentle face suddenly turned pale!

Her chest was undulating violently as if she was hit hard, and a trace of bright red blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

Raise your hand and wipe away the blood from the corner of your mouth without leaving any trace.

The high priest looked at Murphy with an extremely nostalgic look. She smiled slightly, just as gentle as before.

At this moment, this gentle woman was so beautiful that she was a little thrilling!

She turned around slowly.

With a hint of loneliness, loneliness and liberation, I walked towards the temple of Athena, the goddess of wisdom.

She walked very slowly.
