He is the Lord of MC, not the God of Light!

Chapter 142: The Dawn Cult's Exploding War Potential

The next afternoon.

When Markov and Harun finally returned to the starting point with the large army of Dawn Knights.

The true Dawn Cult Holy War Commendation Ceremony has begun.

Of course, this is how it is advertised to the outside world, but any smart person can see it.

Recognition is the face, fame is the substance.

If we really attach so much importance to the process of commendation, why didn't we commend them at the end of the Jihad and on the Day of Judgment?

In the final analysis, it was the news that the entire elves had joined the Dawn Cult that gave the Dawn Cult a label of supremacy.

Through this commendation conference, the world can see the superficial power structure system of the Dawn Cult.

But no matter what the purpose was, the final result achieved what Ian expected.

Liliais becomes Cardinal, in charge of foreign affairs.

With the power of Liliaice's Face Fruit and the might of the Cult of Dawn, no one in the Hundred Races Alliance dared to resist the Cult of Dawn's diplomatic offensive.

Rock and Matthew were promoted to the sequence of twelve white archbishops of the White Pillar.

Rock did it because of his strength, and Ian did it to stabilize the hearts of the elves and make them realize that His Holiness the Pope was paying attention to them.

That's why I got this responsibility.

Matthew's decision was purely due to his ability and loyalty.

During the holy war, everyone was watching Markov and his men lead the troops in battle.

However, few people pay attention to the efforts of the White Pillar priests.

Wherever Markov and his men passed, the city gates were wide open and the people lined the streets to welcome them.

To achieve conquest in a very short period of time, one must have a better management system and logistics to ensure that the soldiers can continue to conquer without distraction.

Matthew, with Dolos and others, followed the direction of Markov and his men's expedition, and wherever they passed, they controlled the city with the faith of Dawn.

Implement management system.

And serve as logistics and intelligence transmission.

It can be said that if Matthew and his team had not followed Markov and his team tirelessly to spread faith and management.

This holy war will probably take more than four or five times as long.

Moreover, the priests brought by Matthew have fully kept up with the Dawn Cult's ever-increasing pace of development and the speed of its territorial expansion.

Matthew's promotion to White Archbishop was considered by everyone to be natural.

In addition, Dolos, Matthew's eldest disciple, took over Matthew's previous job and temporarily served as the bishop of the Dawn Realm Diocese.

After a three-month probation period, you will be offered a permanent position.

This is just a reward and promotion for the White Pillar after the holy war.

The Silver Armor Pillar, the main force of the war, is even richer.

The reward for Markov and others was the magic wand that Ian specially prepared for them.

They are Ian's most trusted people and there is no room for promotion in their positions.

It is most appropriate to give them equipment that can improve their strength and ensure their own safety.

Two thousand Dawn Knights separated themselves and became the Dawn Heavy Cavalry.

From now on, it will serve as the most elite force of the Knights of Dawn.

Not only were their weapons and equipment upgraded in all aspects, but the two hundred people with the best performance were promoted to captains of the Dawn Heavy Cavalry.

The iron suit on his body has been replaced with an enchanted diamond suit.

In addition, this group of people will also be brought into the MC world by Ian.

By this calculation, the MC world already has a development team of more than 5,000 people.

Even with Ian's imagination, it would probably take less than two months for these people to become familiar with the characteristics of the MC world.

The development of the Dawn Realm will be hundreds of years ahead of the Rodri Continent.

The dawn of civilization evolution will spread from the Dawn Realm to the entire Rodri continent.

In addition, with the expansion of territory, the Dawn Cult officially stood at the top of the Hundred Races Alliance.

The Dawn Cult also became the thorn in the side of the demons.

Due to various factors, military expansion has become inevitable.

The Dawn Knights and Night Watch troops are not mentioned.

The most crucial thing is that the entire combat sequence of the elves has been incorporated into the Dawn Cult system.

Twenty thousand elven warriors were simultaneously incorporated into the Dawn Knights lineup.

In addition to the five thousand elven mages who were assigned to the White Pillar Choir, the original guardians of the ancient tree of life and the wise men also became members of the advanced sequence of the Choir.

The Singer.

All remaining adult elven mages were assigned to the Purifier Corps and managed by Fishley.

The Purifier Army, which was originally empty, was instantly expanded by more than 10,000 elven wizards.

Moreover, most of them are above high-level mages.

The current battle formation of the Dawn Cult has expanded to such a level that even Ian has to describe it as brutal.

This does not include the fact that after the commendation meeting, Ian formally received the hundreds of tribes who came to surrender.

There are millions of people from hundreds of races, and they can easily mobilize hundreds of thousands of knights and magicians with extraordinary powers.

Don’t underestimate the fact that the Dawn Cult now only has a small area called the Dawn Realm.

The actual population under its rule is only about 20 to 30 million.

But if he really wants to start a war, Ian can arm millions of powerful Silver Armor Pillar warriors in minutes.

Plus the MC world’s unrivaled logistical support capabilities.

It can be said that the combat potential of the Dawn Cult has been maximized.

The top-tier combat force is Ian himself, who has the strength of a demon king.

There is the god-level Ender Dragon.

The mainstays include Liliaice and Rock, who are second only to god-level beings.

The lower foundation stone can mobilize an army of more than one million intermediate knights and intermediate magicians.

The Dawn Cult now has the confidence to face any of the Seven Sin Realms alone.

The development of the Dawn Cult lasted for more than three months and had already exceeded the imagination of the Hundred Races Alliance, breaking away from the small-scale fighting level of the Hundred Races Alliance.

From the perspective of the demons, in the current continent of Rodri, only the Dawn Cult can pose a fatal threat to them.

But Ian is not proud of this.

The development of the Dawn Cult is not enough, it still needs more powerful people, and even more powerful people.

After all, there were still six demons in the same force as the Arrogant Realm, not to mention that there was an unknown mastermind behind the scenes above the Demon King. Ian never counted on the Hundred Races Alliance.

The Alliance of Hundred Races, which had been fighting for more than two hundred years and was still losing ground and was either thinking of surrendering or escaping, could at best help the Dawn Cult and provide manpower.

In the end, the Dawn Cult can only fight alone in this war against demons.

Ian needs more powerful strength to allow the Dawn Cult to fight against all the demon forces alone!

This commendation meeting and the subsequent acceptance of the submission of hundreds of races lasted until the evening.

After seeing off the patriarchs of each tribe and asking Matthew to arrange their subsequent destination.

Ian invited Lily and others to have a dinner.

Liliais, Rock and other powerful elves also signed the soul contract as they wished, and made a soul oath to Ian and the Ancient Tree of Life, promising to follow Ian and the Dawn Cult for their entire lives.

It has to be said that the benefits of having a profound foundation have been demonstrated once again.

The angels, who had no contract to sign, spent three months swearing loyalty with their lives countless times.

Only then did he gain Ian's recognition and enter the MC world.

The elves, with the ancient tree of life and the elven soul contract as guarantees, signed and swore an oath.

It is recognized by the world's rules and is bound by the ancient tree of life.

It has directly reached the point where the angels are now half a step away from being one of their own.

Therefore, there has always been a tragically thick barrier between the big and small clans in the Hundred Clans Alliance.

After dealing with all this, Ian finally asked Lecia to notify the mermaid and dwarf envoys to come.

……

Following Leshia step by step into the most sacred place of the starting point, the Pope's Palace.

Neptune was still recalling the many etiquette terms his father taught him when he met the Pope.

I was thinking about what to say after delivering the gift so that His Holiness the Pope, who was unrivaled in defeating the devil, would be impressed.

Agree that they can leave a second tribal land at the starting point without surrendering for the time being, and preserve the fire under the protection of the dawn.

After all, he heard that even among those races that offered their faith, not all of them were qualified to stay in the starting point.

But he was actually standing less than five meters away from Ian, face to face with His Holiness the Pope.

Neptune's chaotic thoughts cleared away.

The Pope I met before was a supreme figure with great majesty and endless honor.

But now, Neptune felt the father's mercy from Ian.

He was as kind and wise as the father whom Neptune admired most in her life.

An inexplicable sense of familiarity came over me.

He somewhat understood why those people from the hundreds of tribes who had just met Ian looked at him with admiration when they mentioned him.

original……

What is said in the Oracle: The Pope is the most benevolent and kind Holy Father, and this is not an exaggeration!
But just like that...

"Boom!"

The sound of something heavy falling brought Neptune back to his senses.

The dwarves, led by Hesto, knelt on the ground in unison, looking at Ian with fanatical expressions.

"Greetings to the great Pope! May the truth you forged forever be of mercy to the world!"

"Every intelligent being should love you, for you give birth to truth, make metal and iron walk, and make wood and stone speak!"

"Great Lord of Truth! Hestor of the Dwarf tribe sends you greetings! We beg you to show us mercy and allow us to join the great Dawn Cult and embrace technology!"

Neptune looked at Hesto with a complicated expression, a thousand curse words brewing in his mind.

My father always said that the dwarves were axes, but now I see that they are real axes!
Didn't Hesto's kneeling just hold him here?

Does he kneel or not?
To join the religion or not to join the religion?
With a deep sigh in her heart, Neptune ultimately did not mind bowing down to a great man who had defeated the Demon King.

He bowed down calmly and held a precious pearl above his head.

"Greetings to His Majesty the Great Pope, Neptune of the Mermaid Clan, on behalf of the Mermaid Clan, presenting congratulations to the Dawn."

Hesto also came back to his senses and hurriedly picked up a storage ring.

"The dwarves also pay tribute to the Great Dawn. This is our sacred artifact, the Skyfire Furnace, which takes five hundred years to condense into a single Skyfire Core. It can imbue weapons forged with powerful magical effects."

Neptune's face darkened and he raised his voice:
"Our clan offers the Tears of the Bright Moon, a sacred object condensed from the Bright Moon Holy Ring! Consuming it grants eternal youth, greatly increased strength, and control over the magical power of the Bright Moon!"

"We, the dwarves, have also brought thousands of magical weapons and armor to offer to the Great Dawn!"

"...We, the mermaids, still have a thousand Moonlight Orbs to offer!"

"We also brought all the dwarven weapon forging secrets!"

"The mermaids brought a hundred books of sea magic!"

Lecia looked at the two people who were fighting each other for no apparent reason with a confused look on her face.

If I remember correctly, these two guys were just good brothers...

Why are you acting like an enemy now?

After a long while, Ian chuckled and spoke.

"I have already felt your sincerity."

After saying that, he gestured to Freni to accept the gifts from the two tribes.

Seeing this, Neptune and Hesto put away their inexplicable desire to compare.

Without waiting for Neptune to speak, Ian directly pointed out their plan.

"The Mermaids and Dwarves are both large tribes. I don't think they would want to directly submit to the Dawn Cult just yet."

"You want to build a second tribe in the starting place, relying on the dawn, and preserving the flame of the tribe, right?"

Suddenly, Neptune scratched his head in embarrassment, but Hesto said excitedly:

"Your Holiness, our king did instruct us to do so, but now, we sincerely want to join the church!"

"The truth of redstone technology is what we dwarves have been striving for our entire lives. I believe that if the king knew about the emergence of redstone technology, he would definitely lead the dwarves to make the right choice!"

Now, Neptune was embarrassed again.

If Ian and a bunch of Dawn Cult leaders weren't watching them, he would have had a fight with Hesto.

This guy, when he speaks or does things, never considers others!

Aren’t the lives of the mermaids’ lives also lives?
But Ian did not agree to Hesto's request like he did to other tribes. He just smiled and changed the subject.

"The starting point will subsequently build a commercial trade system in the outer city area."

"If the dwarves and mermaids are interested, they can stay and participate."

"Exchange of resources with the Hundred Races and the Dawn Divine Religion will also be very helpful to your development."
