"F * ck …" Geert was completely dumbfounded. Li Huailin was not playing by the rules. It was fine if he was crowned and ascended to the throne, but this was the coronation ceremony. What the hell was with the first order? This wasn't the time to do this, right? Who would do this during the coronation ceremony? Could he wait until this was over before saying anything?
Geert, who realized that something was amiss, hurried to the left of Li Huailin's platform and pointed to the document in his hand. Of course, he was hinting for Li Huailin to finish his speech. It didn't matter if Li Huailin could recite it or not, as long as he could finish it.
Unfortunately, Li Huailin didn't care about Geert's intentions at all. Anyway, he didn't even read his speech draft and had already thrown it into the trash. Besides, he came here to deliver the order. Otherwise, why would he ascend the throne? Now that the witness was pressing, he didn't have so much time to waste on this.
"Alright, in short, my first order …" Li Huailin continued.
"Oh my god …" Geert facepalmed. He really didn't know what to do. He really couldn't do anything to Li Huailin. He couldn't possibly rush up to the stage and force Li Huailin to read his script, right? That would only make him look worse. Therefore, he had no choice but to wait and see how Li Huailin's coronation ceremony would develop.
While Geert was having a headache, the heads of states and the leaders of various forces were also having a headache. That's right, they were wondering what Li Huailin's first order would be. They didn't expect Li Huailin to do this at this time. Although they had accepted Li Huailin as the Emperor, to be honest, they weren't prepared yet. What if Li Huailin gave them an order that would give them a headache?
For example, if Li Huailin wanted the Light Church and the Dark Church to merge at this time, then what do you think they should do? Both sides certainly wouldn't agree to merge and would want to exterminate the other side as soon as possible. But now that both sides have recognized Li Huailin as the emperor of the continent, and he ordered them to merge, what should they do? Everything would be troublesome.
The others were also worried about the same problem. Therefore, they looked at Li Huailin worriedly, afraid that he would give them an order that would put them in a difficult position. Moreover, Li Huailin's order on this occasion also put them in a difficult position. In this situation where everyone was present, if Li Huailin said it, then they must carry it out. If they didn't carry it out, then they would be going against the Emperor who had just ascended to the throne. If they didn't listen to the first order issued, then wouldn't it be clear that they were breaking off relations with the Emperor? At this time, of course, the people who came to participate in the ceremony didn't want to break off relations with Li Huailin. Therefore, Li Huailin's order really made them feel a little embarrassed and worried.
But Li Huailin didn't seem to notice everyone's expression as he continued, "Well, my first order … I now announce that the Harvest Goddess Deluca is a complete evil god. Therefore, from now on, no one in the entire continent is allowed to worship the Harvest Goddess Deluca. Anyone who believes in the Harvest Goddess will be treated as a heretic and will be sentenced to death. And from today onwards, all temples of the Harvest Goddess Deluca must be demolished within two days. After two days, I don't want to see any temples of the Harvest Goddess on the continent. Do you understand? "
"Huh?" Everyone was stunned. Yes, they really thought of many possible orders that Li Huailin might make, but they never thought that Li Huailin would make such a request. Not to mention whether they believed in the Harvest Goddess Deluca or not, she was really a god. What Li Huailin did was simply going against a god. Since ancient times, there had never been an Emperor who said that they had to go against a god. Even if he didn't believe in this god, he wouldn't dare to do so. Was Li Huailin really looking for death?
Although very few people had actually seen the Divine Race, everyone knew that there really were Gods on this continent. Li Huailin's act of demolishing someone's temple was simply like raiding someone's home. This was really courting death. Did the people of the continent turn their backs on you and now you're starting to act like a God?
But at this time, there were still people who breathed a sigh of relief. Those were the people from countries that did not believe in the Harvest Goddess Deluca, such as the Orcs and the Elves. The race that believed in the Harvest Goddess the most was, of course, the Humans, which made up more than 80% of the population. The other 20% were Dwarves, Gnomes, Goblins, and some Demons, etc. Therefore, Li Huailin's order was actually not a big deal to the others. It had nothing to do with them. After all, there was not a single temple of the Harvest Goddess in their country, so there was no need to demolish it at all. As for the cultists and the like, if they escaped, Li Huailin would just kill them. After all, they were originally the Murderers, so there was no difference.
At this time, everyone's eyes quickly turned from Li Huailin to Anthony. This was because Li Huailin's first order was said to be for the entire continent, but in fact, it was for the Humans. Everyone wanted to see how Anthony would answer.
Of course, Anthony did not expect Li Huailin to say this. However, he knew why Li Huailin did this. Because now, he knew that the Harvest Goddess Deluca had already given an oracle to cause trouble for Li Huailin. He was the one who told this news to Li Huailin. And it seemed that Li Huailin was ready to fight back directly. But was this really okay?
Yes, what Anthony was most worried about now was not the problem of the cultists, but Li Huailin's side. He should also be a believer of the Harvest Goddess Deluca, because the Harvest Goddess Deluca was known as the Guardian Goddess of Mankind. Therefore, as the Emperor, he must also believe in her. To be honest, Anthony's memory had not fully recovered. He could not remember what his previous beliefs were. His belief in the Harvest Goddess Deluca was only in name. He did not feel anything special about it. However, Li Huailin's direct confrontation with a God made him very worried. In his opinion, this was definitely going to be a big problem.
But after thinking about it, Anthony could also understand Li Huailin's current situation. After all, the Harvest Goddess Deluca had first given an oracle to cause trouble for Li Huailin. Based on his brother's character, he felt that Li Huailin would really do it. So the problem was, what should he do? If he agreed to Li Huailin's order now, although he was on the same side as Li Huailin, the opponent was a God. Would he send his brother to the road of no return? And if he did not agree to carry out the order, he would probably directly fall out with Li Huailin. Anthony did not want to do this, even if he felt that it was for his own good.
Thinking of this, Anthony felt a little headache. Should he support or not? After thinking for a while, before Anthony could answer, suddenly, a few soldiers beside him could not help but leave their positions at this time.
"Your Majesty, do you want to eradicate all the Harvest Goddess temples on the continent?" One of the soldiers directly pointed at Li Huailin and asked. From his tone, it seemed that he was already questioning Li Huailin.
Everyone was shocked, but they immediately understood. Yes, these soldiers must be the Harvest Goddess Deluca's believers. Because the Harvest Goddess was originally the national religion of the human race, there were many believers. Moreover, this was the human territory, so there were probably more than these few soldiers who believed in the Harvest Goddess. However, these few were the more radical believers, so they stood up at this time. Seeing these soldiers standing up, there were also many soldiers on the other side who were ready to move. Yes, it seemed that something was going to happen. Was there really going to be a mutiny during the coronation ceremony?
The pressure seemed to have shifted to Li Huailin's side. Everyone wanted to see how Li Huailin would answer. The situation seemed to be very bad. What if Li Huailin insisted on his order, and the soldiers rioted? If Li Huailin immediately retracted his order, then the first order of the continent's emperor would be taken. What would happen to his prestige in the future?
However, Li Huailin's calmness was beyond everyone's expectations. Seeing these soldiers taking the lead, Li Huailin acted as if he was prepared. He directly said, "Yes, is my order not clear enough? Wipe out all the Harvest Goddess temples on the continent within two days. Then, I will also give all those who believe in the Harvest Goddess two days. If they don't change their beliefs after two days, they will all be executed. Do you understand my order? "
"Your Majesty!" One of the soldiers shouted with a face full of excitement. At this time, a large group of soldiers rushed out from behind him. They also looked very excited. All the onlookers saw that this was not good. No matter how they looked at it, this was the rhythm of a mutiny. The Harvest Goddess believed in this. If you wiped out their temples, wouldn't they fight you to the death?
Just when everyone was getting nervous, something unexpected happened. The soldiers who jumped out suddenly all knelt down in front of Li Huailin. The leader of the soldiers shouted at Li Huailin, "Your Majesty, you are indeed the most loyal believer of the Harvest Goddess. It is great to be able to follow you. I, Dyramar, swear that I will be loyal to you for the rest of my life!"
"We swear!" As soon as this person named Dyramar finished speaking, all the soldiers behind him immediately knelt down and shouted in unison.
"Huh?" Everyone was stunned. This … What was going on? What was going on? This wasn't the script.
Just when everyone was stunned, Li Huailin smiled and said, "You don't have to be loyal to me for the rest of your life. Who are you? Are you willing to change your beliefs?"
"Of course not!" Dyramar took the lead to answer. Of course, the soldiers behind him also shouted in unison. Of course, this was reasonable.
"Very good. Someone, drag these cultists out and hang them." Li Huailin clapped his hands and said.
