Heroes of Silver Moon Chapter 690

The Holy Empire, the imperial capital.

In the palace, the regent summoned the archbishop of the pantheon again.

"What do you think of the battle between the Silver Moon Kingdom and the Red Scorpion Khanate this time?" The regent grabbed a handful of feed and threw it into the pond, where the fish began to **** it.

There are many strange buildings in the palace, and this pond is one of them. Although he really wanted to shovel and rebuild these nondescript buildings, he didn't dare, because they were all made by the human emperor.

Just like this pond, the emperor would sometimes fish here on a whim.

Although there may not be such a time in hundreds or even thousands of years, if this great existence suddenly becomes interested, it will be embarrassing to find that the pond has been filled up by unworthy descendants.

In the final analysis, this is a world where power is paramount. In the face of absolute personal strength, resources and power can only be manipulated by others.

The archbishop replied with a half-smile: "Behind the Red Scorpion Khanate, there are the orc royal court and many orc countries to support, and the Silver Moon Kingdom has just lost its strength a few years ago. Such a disparity in strength can be defeated by that Silver Moon Kingdom." Moon King has a crushing advantage, apart from admiration, what else can he think of it."

The regent's complexion was also a bit complicated, and he sighed: "Silver Moon Kingdom's national strength has always been at the same level, so it has received the least attention, but now we see that we all seem to underestimate this country."

The archbishop nodded with a smile: "Isn't it? It took five years to rebuild three overlord fleets and an army capable of defeating 300,000 orcs. Such a war potential is really scary."

The regent's face gradually turned cold: "Hmph, that Silver Moon King is indeed capable, but also very stupid!"

If he wants to use religious means to tame the Silvermoon Kingdom, King Silvermoon's attitude is very important, but Simon has been reluctant to lower his stance, which makes him very dissatisfied.

The empire is sacred and great, and it's a shame to make you bow your head and obey. I didn't expect to be so ignorant of current affairs!

The archbishop also let out a sneer: "It's really stupid!"

Judging from intelligence, the reason why Silvermoon Kingdom defeated the orc army was because it was able to mass-produce a special alchemy weapon.

But wanting to use alchemy weapons to contend against the empire is obviously a dream.

The reason why the empire is strong is because it has a human emperor and many legendary saints, and mere alchemy weapons are nothing to worry about.

"Since that Yinyue King is unwilling to bow his head, let's do it directly!" The regent who had lost his patience said lightly.

Today's Silver Moon Kingdom is something that he can't see through, so it's better to beat him to death with a stick. As for the attitude of the Silver Moon King, it doesn't matter, if he refuses to accept it, he will die.

He wouldn't mind repeating what happened in the Blue Moon Kingdom back then in the Silver Moon Kingdom.

"Understood, I will urge the temple as soon as possible to strengthen the penetration of the Silver Moon Kingdom." The archbishop couldn't hold back the joy in his eyes, the grandson regent was finally willing to tear his face.

If they had been forced to enter the Silver Moon Kingdom a few years ago, the Moonlight Church would have been defeated long ago, wasting a few years in vain.

But a few years ago, the Red Scorpion Khanate was eyeing them, and it was difficult for them to judge the form of the Silver Moon Kingdom. Even if they wanted to send missionaries, they probably would not be willing to go.

Now that the Silver Moon Kingdom has once again defeated the Red Scorpion Khanate, it proves that they have the strength to protect their own safety. Coupled with the full support of the Regent, the right time, place and people are just right for them.

…

"I am going to build a garden of heroes on the outskirts of the capital to bury and commemorate the heroes who fought for the country. What do you think?"

In the king's study, Simon summoned the clerks Mike and Harris.

Siegel's death in battle this time touched him a lot, so he wanted to do something for these heroes who fought for the country, so that they would not be forgotten in an instant.

Based on his grasp of the psychology of the people, this is something that can easily happen. Without family and country feelings, the people's sense of belonging to the country is very low.

Frankly speaking, if conditions do not allow it, at the moment of war, 80% of the people in the kingdom will flee to other countries, and wanting them to fight for the country is almost like a dream.

Although this is the case in all countries in the world under the enfeoffment system, Simon, who has been exaggerated by his family and country feelings, still feels sad about it.

Who can blame the people for not having a sense of belonging to the country?

Because the enfeoffment system is like this, a country divides hundreds of territories, and each territory can be counted as an independent kingdom. Today, if the people cannot survive in this territory, they will go to another territory, and if they cannot survive in this country, they will run away. In another country, there is always a place to live anyway.

After all, the prosperity of the country has nothing to do with them, and the nobles will always benefit the most.

Personal interests are not linked to national interests, so why let people fight for the country?

Now, Simon wants to establish this kind of family and country feelings. The first step is to let the people understand that in order to protect them, some people have paid the price of their lives!

"This is a good thing!" Before Mike could speak, Harris directly expressed his own evaluation. As a soldier, he can best understand the sadness of a hero being forgotten.

"A cemetery to commemorate heroes? How big is it? Who are they commemorating?" Mike frowned.

"Anyone who sacrificed their lives for the country should be sacrificed. What is the scale? Five thousand acres of land. The scale can be expanded depending on the follow-up situation." Simon stroked his chin and replied.

"With all due respect, this will not bring any benefits, but a large expenditure, and it is impossible for us to bury and pay homage to all the war dead." Mike expressed his opinion.

Simon shook his head and stared at him straightly: "The country can't do things only based on interests. No matter how prosperous the country governed in that way, it will be nothing but a mess of sand."

Mike also looked into Simon's eyes: "Like the North-South Railway you built?"

It has been three years since Simon proposed the plan to build a railway. In the past three years, the Silver Moon Kingdom has spent countless manpower and material resources, but still failed to complete the railway.

There is no benefit to be seen for a long time, and even as expected, even if it is built, a lot of money has to be put into it for operation.

If Simon hadn't defeated the Red Scorpion Khanate twice in succession, and his prestige in the Silver Moon Kingdom was so high, perhaps some nobles would have jumped out to question it.

"That's right!"

Simon's unwavering attitude let Mike know that he could not shake the king's determination at all, so he could only nod helplessly.

But let's burn the money hard, and see how long the Silver Moon Kingdom's finances can last!

The atmosphere in the study was a bit dull. Many ministers were dissatisfied with Simon's arbitrariness, but they did not dare to show it on the surface.

After all, the cabinet is useless now, so what are their staff who only give advice and suggestions?

At this moment, there was a quarrel outside the study.

"Judge, the king is discussing something, you can't go in."

"Step aside!"

The door was pushed open, and the presiding judge of the Moonlight Church in a red robe walked in with a dark face. He looked around the study and said, "Everyone, get out! I have something important to report to Your Majesty!"

Mike, Harris and the others were at a loss, and looked at Simon one after another. Although they were considered high-ranking and powerful, they still didn't dare to challenge the Big Three of the Moonlight Church.

Simon looked deeply at the presiding judge who broke into the room, and said after a long while, "Everyone, get out, I have something important to discuss with the presiding judge."

Hearing the king's words, the staff, who had already been trembling with fear, left the place quickly.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the rhythm of the gods fighting, and they should hide as soon as possible to avoid harming themselves.

"Simon, there's nothing wrong with it." Seeing the menacing approach of the presiding judge, Harris was a little worried, and he definitely should have stayed to help.

"It's okay, I'll take care of it." Simon shook his head, rejecting his kindness.

When everyone left the study room and the guards locked the door, Simon's face darkened and he stared at the presiding judge: "Do you know what you are doing? I am the king of Silvermoon Kingdom!"

The presiding judge looked at him coldly: "But you are also the Holy Son of the Moonlight Church!"

"Grass!"

Simon turned his head aside, then turned back, gritted his teeth and said, "Is there anything you can talk to me in private, instead of provoking the king's authority!"

The presiding judge said tit-for-tat: "Then may I ask our respected Majesty the King to explain why a large number of missionaries flooded into the Silver Moon Kingdom in the Temple of Human Gods to compete for faith with the Moonlight Church!"

Simon suddenly took a breath of air: "When did it happen?"

Seeing that Simon didn't know, the presiding judge's face softened a little: "Not long ago, they said that the Silver Moon Kingdom is now a principality and has lost its independent missionary right. Is this true?"

Simon was silent for a moment, then nodded.

The presiding judge suddenly became angry, pointed at Simon and said, "You are confused! Do you know what the loss of independent missionary rights means to the Moonlight Church!"

Compared with the Temple of Human Gods, which is composed of more than a dozen human churches, the Moonlight Church is weak and has no way to resist the opponent's offensive. It was able to monopolize the faith of the Silver Moon Kingdom before because of its independent missionary rights.

Now that he has lost the right to preach independently, the end can be imagined.

Simon's heart was heavy, but he still acted stubbornly: "I can't help it. If we can't join the Holy Alliance of Humanity, we will be excluded everywhere and die from the world!"

There are two forces in the main continent, humans and orcs. The Silver Moon Kingdom is a human country, and it is born to oppose the orc kingdoms. If it is squeezed out by the human kingdoms, it will really have no way out.

The presiding judge gritted his teeth and said, "But after we joined the Holy Alliance, have we received assistance from the Empire and other human nations?"

Thinking of Siegel who died in the battle, Simon fell into silence again. Now that he recalled that battle, he always had a thought in his mind. If the two legends of the empire ended up supporting him, would the Red Scorpion King Batu not be able to interfere? Ordinary battlefield? Will Siegel not die in battle?

"Then what do you want me to do? Break away from the Holy Alliance~www.mtlnovel.com~ and fight against the empire and all human countries!" Simon, who was restless, vented his anger on the presiding judge.

Staring at Simon, the presiding judge said word by word: "You are the Holy Son of the Moonlight Church, and you have the responsibility to handle this matter well!"

"Fuck! Why should I handle everything!"

Simon waved his hand angrily, and the copywriting and porcelain on the desk were all thrown to the wall, making the sound of banging and porcelain breaking.

This is the case with the Hawke family, the Silvermoon Kingdom, and the Moonlight Church. Why does everyone pin their hopes on him? Do they have to crush him to death with responsibility?

Fucking responsibility! What an obligation to go! I want to sleep comfortably, travel comfortably, and play with any woman I want.

I don't want to be trapped in this place forever, I... want to go to the end of the world with my sword!

Hearing the faint movement from the study, the guards outside couldn't help but swallowed timidly. The king's study was specially made, and the sound insulation effect was excellent, and any sound inside could not be heard outside.

Now there is a sound coming out, or the sound of smashing things. What kind of conflict happened between the king and the presiding judge of the Moonlight Church?

In the study, the presiding judge silently watched Simon smash things.

After calming down, Simon took a deep breath, sat back in his seat again, and looked at the presiding judge with a blank expression: "I will deal with it as soon as possible!"

After all, he still can't be carefree, for those he loves, or those who love him, he must fulfill the obligations brought by each identity, and...responsibility!
