The hotel owner's shout caused the chefs in the kitchen and the waiters who were hiding behind the counter to poke their heads out. In the end, they were all frightened by the three huge snakes in the room.
If it was outdoors, the six-meter-tall snakes might not have such a big visual impact. However, in the hotel's lobby, the three huge snakes gave people the illusion that they "took up half the room".
When they saw Sally standing up and the three snakes crawling beside her, without exception, they quickly knelt on the ground like the hotel owner. As if they were praying outside a temple, they shouted the name of "Anda Priest".
Roddy immediately realized the problem. He looked up at Akasha and Natha, and then looked at Sally. Back then, they had all seen the murals in the temple in Duriel, and the scene in front of them was almost the same as the scene of the "Anda Priest" gathering the scepter!
To the citizens of Dister City, stories related to Theseus were repeated almost every day. The story of the Anda Priest sacrificing himself to link three vipers to forge a scepter was something that even children had heard countless times. The murals and sculptures on the streets were closely related to this story. Every time they participated in a sacrificial ceremony, they would try their best to get to the front row and kiss the priest's robe that symbolized the Kiss of the Viper. It was an honor to kiss the priest's robe that symbolized the Kiss of the Viper.
This was the origin of the name "Scepter Priest". Udora had once played such a role.
However, everyone knew that it was a fake and a story.
However, they had just experienced the destructive attack of the Dragons' magic yesterday and were seriously injured and healed by the divine power. Even those who did not have a firm belief in the faith were now full of worship for the god of the "Theseus" religion, Tapris.
Now that they saw Sally and the three huge snakes, they did not suspect anything at all. They all treated her as the incarnation of Anda Priest.
"That …"
It was not that Sally had never faced people who saluted her. After all, she was the monarch of the Kingdom of Karen. However, she had never encountered a situation where she was worshipped as a "god". At this time, Sally did not know how to deal with it. She looked at Roddy for help.
The latter suddenly thought of something and whispered to her. Sally thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. She then released a "Holy Light Spell", filling the room with gentle light.
Rody, who was at the side, was like a servant. He stood behind Sally and said, "God's messenger has descended to the human world. She has saved Dister City and the entire Tuk tribe. She is the incarnation of the Anda Priest and the embodiment of God's will. Ten days later, the Marhalla Temple will reappear in the human world with God's power. Bring this news to more people. Everyone will be able to approach the Temple on that day and bathe in the glory of the True God and receive his blessings."
Roddy spoke eloquently and pretentiously. Akasha, Natha, and Merinsera covered their mouths to stifle their laughter. After all, "pretending to be a god" was really a big contrast for a prime minister of a country …
They were used to seeing Roddy's serious face. Now, this guy was seriously talking about "demons invading Eiseka" and "the incarnation of Anda Priest is the savior of the world". The people kneeling on the ground were shocked. In the end, they cried bitterly and loudly thanked "God saved us".
At this point, Merinsera and the others had also guessed Roddy's plan. For a religious country, this method was obviously more effective than simple military conquest. The ruling effect was also firmer.
Roddy's mouth was dry from speaking. Seeing that it was about time, he chased the boss and the others out and told them to spread the news.
"Hey, I forgot to ask them to make food."
When he walked back, Roddy remembered that the boss had just knocked over the plates, and all the food had fallen to the ground. He patted his head and simply went to the kitchen to prepare a few dishes. After all, he had lived alone for a long time. With the help of magic, he simply processed the ingredients. After using magic tentacles to carry seven or eight plates to the hall, he said while arranging the plates, "Kitchen, I don't know what kind of eggs this is, and the camel fat tastes a little fishy. After searching for a long time, I found that there is rapeseed oil here, so I made an egg pancake and … Why, what happened?"
Because Roddy found that the table in front of him had suddenly become quiet.
"I just didn't expect that Lord Roddy, the 'Servant of God', the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Karen, and the owner of the 'Viper's Kiss', would actually cook personally. Heh, this meal is worth a lot of money."
Merinsera laughed after saying that. Then, she shook her head and picked up the crispy baked pancake. With a "crunch" sound, she ate it and raised her eyebrows. "Not bad!"
"Eat it while it's hot. It doesn't taste good when it's cold."
Roddy smiled. Seeing that they began to eat silently, he felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. He had to quickly say, "There's still a lot to do. Have a good rest after eating. I really can't stand it anymore. I'll go to sleep later."
"Are you tired? Do you need us to do anything next? "
Sally asked.
"Let's wait for the army to come. There should be nothing to worry about Udora. But I have to arrange the guards. After the hotel owner spreads the news, there will probably be a lot of people coming here to worship … "
Saying that, Roddy got up and went outside. As soon as he left, Natha, who had not moved, suddenly raised her hand and took a pancake. She ate it with Roddy's scrambled eggs.
Merinsala rolled her eyes silently before taking another pancake and munching on it to her heart's content.
"It's quite delicious …"
***
When Udora opens her eyes, she feels dizzy and her head is swelling. She glanced at the sky. It seemed that it was almost dawn.
It took her a long time to realize that she had "overslept" — After the war the night before yesterday, Udora didn't rest from beginning to end the next day. She was busy until almost midnight. Then she found an armchair and curled up for a while. She didn't expect that she had slept until now.
But seeing that her subordinates were guarding the door, she guessed that there should be no accident.
Udora's own coordination ability had to be mentioned … Although she was young, she came from the army. Her ability to lead troops to war was perfectly exerted when the city was under "control". Because of proper management and deterrence, most of the escaped residents had returned to their places after a day, and there was no more chaos. At this time, they all stayed at home and did not dare to go out.
But for Udora, her work had just begun. The Dragons had not restored all the damaged buildings, and most of the upper class of the kingdom had died, so many areas in the outer city had become "ownerless". Many middle-level priests had already wanted to seize these areas by force. But now the situation was not settled, so they just sent people to hang around nearby. Those who were close to Udora had begun to line up at the door to "discuss".
But she didn't dare to meet these people at all. As a "temporary subordinate", the Windsor priest also didn't have the courage to do so. In fact, both of them could see clearly that this disaster was not as simple as a "reshuffle of power". It was the beginning of the whole kingdom changing hands, and the country was likely to fall into endless suffering.
As the middle layer, they seemed to maintain their status now, but in fact, they were treading on thin ice. Who knew whether they would be exposed in the wild like those guys hanging in the outer city tomorrow?
