Chapter 419 Imperial Celebration
The time soon came to the middle and late March, the 23rd.
The weather is gradually warming up, and the imperial celebration is held as scheduled.
The central area of Wangcheng and the upper and lower urban areas are full of lively and lively atmosphere. Being able to enjoy the highest-level festivals of the empire with the Sun Royal Family gave the local residents a strong sense of honor and superiority.
During this period, Chen Lun’s life was quite ordinary. Apart from going to the church to preach, answering the believers’ concerns and listening to their confidantes every day, he returned to the residence in the church area to eat and rest.
He seems to have really become an ordinary priest, living a life of two points and one line, with a clean heart and asceticism.
The members of the team have gradually adapted to the new environment of Wangcheng. They took advantage of the rest time to walk around the three districts a few times. Although they didn't go to every corner, they still had a general idea of what Wangcheng was like.
Frey successfully completed the task assigned to him by Chen Lun the day before yesterday, and commanded several hired construction teams to roughly renovate the generous church area. Under the huge gold pound offensive, the efficiency was frighteningly high, and the traces of the Red Apple Church were wiped out in sevens and eighties.
Now this church district has completely become the "shape" of a generous parliament.
And inside the Generous Church, a huge statue of Conrad was erected for believers to admire and worship.
It was a man sitting on a high-backed chair with his back to the door, wearing a decent suit, playing with a scale in his left hand, slightly raising his right hand against the armrest, and gently holding a goblet with his index and middle fingers. There is half a glass of wine in the glass...
Believers cannot see His face unless they go behind the statue.
But in fact, Chen Lun deliberately instructed Frey not to carve the face of the King of Slaughter when negotiating with the stonemason...so even if the believers walked behind the statue, they would find that there were no facial features on the statue's face.
in addition.
Because not only the circus cadres live in the church area, but also the councilors under Chen Lun's command, some high-end apartments have been added to the renovation of the residential area.
Even every cadre and congressman's request, Chen Lun also did his best to meet it. For example, Maggie's independent pharmaceutical room, Alex's music room, Connie's workshop warehouse, and the personal research room and study room of Akbinfrey and others.
Chen Lun also specially left a studio for Noah. When he comes back, he will probably be delighted by it. Thinking of the young man's shy smile, he couldn't help but smile.
These expenses are naturally not small. Fortunately, the public funds approved by the parliament are sufficient. After the 50,000 gold pounds granted to Frey were used up, Chen Lun again allocated another 20,000 pounds to complete all this.
Chen Lun's current upper limit of physical strength has reached more than 3,800, so the upper limit of the number of black crystal craftsmen made by using [B-level creepy thing: Hope Workshop] has also become 38.
He allocated 8 to Connie to assist her in making weapons and equipment, and the remaining 30 were responsible for patrolling the church area. Chen Lun also specially put on large black cloaks for these black crystal smith puppets. At first glance, they look like "mysterious giant guards" serving the generous parliament.
Eight thirty this morning.
Chen Lun got up early, washed and dressed, and then boarded the carriage to the "Fire Pattern Square". Along with this, there are also circus cadres and members of parliament.
This is not only the most grand and grand festival event in the empire, but also the award ceremony for Mr. Leader, which is of great significance, and none of Chen Lun's subordinates want to miss it.
And every believer in the Council of Generosity has basically learned about this matter, so among the residents gathered in the Firemark Square today, many believers in the Council of Generosity are looking forward to seeing the glorious moment of Father Jack.
"Here we are, Captain."
The carriage stopped slowly, and Golov's voice came from outside the curtain.
Chen Lun listened to the bustling noise in his ears, sat up from the chair in the carriage silently, and got out of the carriage with a silver cane.
He is wearing a very formal black tuxedo today, and the black top hat on his head is brand new. On the brim of the hat, there is a purple chrysanthemum specially pinned on by Floyd for him. In the left breast pocket, there is also a one.
At the security checkpoint by the square, two bright yellow warning strips were drawn, and there was a dense crowd of people behind, all of whom were residents of Wangcheng who came to participate in the celebration.
This event has no identity restrictions, and does not charge any fees, so that countless ordinary people in the lower city came to join in the fun. Fortunately, the Fire Emblem Plaza is wide enough to accommodate so many people.
After Chen Lun got off the carriage, a group of imperial guards came up to him and saluted. The leader was a royal official, he bowed his head slightly to Chen Lun, then raised his hand to make a false pretense.
"Mr. Jack Speight, this way please."
"thanks."
Chen Lun nodded.
Then followed the guards into the square and headed towards the central area.
The circus cadres and their members of parliament followed closely behind. The group attracted the attention of many people. Someone recognized Father Jack of the Generous Council and greeted them happily.
Chen Lun responded with a smile and raised his hand.
"Father Jack saw me! Praise the God of Contract, Praise the Generous Council!"
The believers were so excited that they even prayed.
Soon, everyone came to the deepest part of the Fire Emblem Square, and boarded a spacious high platform, where you can easily overlook the whole square and the sea of people.
Behind the high platform, there are several rows of seats, divided into ten areas, corresponding to the representatives of the Seven Orthodox Churches, the Imperial Asylum, the Sun Royal Family, and wealthy businessmen.
Chen Lun sat down in the area where the Congress of Generosity was located. It was located on the leftmost side of the second row, and many big figures could be seen clearly.
‘That’s the Sun Princess...and the Prince? '
Chen Lun glanced at the seats in the front row. A beautiful figure with blond hair coiled up, wearing a diamond-encrusted crown and a long white dress was sitting quietly in the center. Beside him was a golden cotton coat and long robe, also wearing a crowned youth.
Seemingly noticing his gaze, the prince turned his head slowly, with a friendly smile on his face, and nodded to him. Seeing this, Chen Lun also showed a polite smile, and made a gesture of stroking his chest in response.
'And the Archbishop of the Sun Church Monastery...Terrence is also here. '
Chen Lun looked to the other side, next to the seats of the royal family members, sat a group of monks in white robes, solemn and quiet, but exuding a warm atmosphere.
The old acquaintance Terrence sat in it, but Chen Lun could see that he, like other high-ranking people, came only in an incarnation.
The high-level officials from the Imperial Asylum and other Orthodox Churches arrived one after another and sat in their own seats... Most of these big figures remained silent and did not want to chat, but there were also some who had good relationships and communicated in low voices.
Time passed slowly.
Unconsciously, it came to ten o'clock in the morning.
The bright radiance of the sun shines through the clouds, illuminating the entire square brightly.
A middle-aged man with pale skin and a clean-shaven beard walked up to the high stage and picked up the microphone. He was wearing a gorgeous golden turtleneck, with a straight waist, and he looked extraordinary.
This is Babaye, the chief steward of the Sun Royal Family, an "old man" who has served the Sun Royal Family for decades. In a slow but solemn tone, he announced the beginning of the imperial celebration.
Wow!
The audience cheered excitedly and raised their fists high.
Babaye smiled and waited for more than ten seconds before raising his hand and pressing down. The people immediately fell silent. Immediately, the chief executive invited Prince Dazlet, saying that the prince would give a speech next.
Among the fiery gazes, the prince got up from his seat with a smile on his face, went to the front of the high platform, and took the microphone in Babaye's hand.
"Residents of the empire, on behalf of my father, I will preside over the celebration for you here...Although the Trisur Empire has just experienced a disaster, fortunately, the whole empire has worked together to restore the disaster. I am very grateful to everyone for their support. For the trust and support of the empire, I am also grateful for the contributions made by the Church of the Seven Great Gods in this disaster..."
Prince had a calm demeanor, with one hand behind his back, and the other lightly lifted the microphone to his mouth.
His voice is gentle and contagious. During the nearly 20-minute speech, the residents in the audience burst into tears several times.
"...Today is the annual celebration day of the empire, and it is also the first celebration day for all of us after the Red Disaster. This is a node worth remembering, and it is also a day that the empire should be recorded in history...Starting from today, The next week will be the celebration time for Tourmaline Kloster, and the shops and houses in the three major urban areas will receive corresponding tax relief and financial subsidies."
"Praise the sun!"
"Thanks to the generosity of the prince!"
"Long live Trisul! The Empire lives on!"
The crowd in the Huowen Square were very excited, and there was wave after wave of enthusiastic voices.
Whoosh—boom!
Bang bang bang!
Several fireworks flew into the sky, blooming a round of brilliant and bright golden sunflower patterns. The crowd felt extremely honored and delighted under this grand and magnificent scene.
On the high platform, the prince raised his head slightly, with fireworks reflected in his eyes, and a smile at the corner of his mouth.
After a few minutes.
The fireworks are finished.
"Next is the awarding ceremony of the Imperial Jury, and nine new members will join it to serve the future peace and stability of the Empire."
The prince said slowly.
The crowd in the audience was a little puzzled, because there had never been such a link in the previous celebration days, and they had rarely heard of the name "Imperial Jury". They just secretly speculated that this might be a military organization of the royal family, similar to an organization of a public security shelter. .
Chen Lun stood up under the reminder of a steward at the rear, and walked to the front with eight other young men and women.
During this process, he clearly felt many different eyes cast on him, including curiosity, doubt, indifference and unkindness. Among the members of the royal family, Youdao's extremely hostile eyes caught Chen Lun's attention.
He glanced in that direction according to his feeling, and saw a middle-aged man staring at him coldly.
The other party was wearing a golden dress, wearing a gold and white wide-brimmed hat with eight topaz inlaid on the brim of the hat, which was the standard for duke clothing.
‘Duke of Abirama…’
Chen Lun shook his head secretly, then looked back immediately.
Some time ago, due to Patel's affairs, the Duke went to the Generous Church to be an important person, but he justly refused... Chen Lun only thought that the Duke should have nothing to do with a Sequence Eight Transcendent in the wild .
So on the same day, he obtained information from the intelligence department of the parliament headquarters, and soon found out that the other party had a good relationship with Terrence, so he guessed that the other party might hate him and Udi and be hostile to him.
After dispatching the three Golovs to investigate, Chen Lun confirmed through divination, and easily connected the clues together, knowing the general truth behind it.
What Viscount Wren thought he was keeping secret could not be kept from Chen Lun at all.
But Chen Lun didn't care much about it.
"The royal duke...a big man who is high above ordinary people can't do anything to me. If I was just a Sequence Five in the wild, I might still be afraid, but I am now a high-ranking official in the Orthodox Church, with my back on the mountain, and an idle duke." Also want to trouble me, bored. '
Six men, three women and nine people stood in a row at the front of the high platform.
The prince smiled gently and walked in front of everyone.
"Congratulations on joining the Imperial Jury and becoming one of them in the future."
"This is our pleasure."
An ordinary-looking man with long hair spoke and saluted.
Chen Lun glanced at him, and thought to himself:
‘Shadowwalker Hamilton... Sure enough, this guy is destined to join the Imperial Jury, but I didn’t expect that I would be in the same period as him. '
The prince beckoned, and two young and beautiful maids walked up to him holding a wooden gift box, one of which contained nine golden number plates, and the other contained nine round epaulettes .
"This is your respective ID card, please keep it safe..."
The prince handed out the numbered plates to the nine people one by one, and put the epaulettes on them with his own hands, and then chuckled.
"And this epaulet is a symbol of title. From now on, you will all be barons of the empire. This honor will be passed down from generation to generation. I hope you will not disappoint the expectations of the empire."
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Prince!"
"We swear to the death to defend the glory of the empire."
Everyone said quickly.
The prince nodded slightly, then raised his hand and pointed to the seat in the shelter behind.
"According to the number, you will be assigned to the nine presiding judges. At today's dinner, you can go to get acquainted with them first."
"Yes, Your Majesty the Prince."
Everyone answered.
The prince nodded and ended the award ceremony.
Just before leaving, he took a special look at Chen Lun and smiled at him. This move could not escape the eyes of the other eight new members of the Imperial Jury, after all, they were all Sequence Five Transcendents.
But they were quite puzzled by this, wondering why the prince looked at Chen Lun differently.
Chen Lun felt the confusion of his "colleagues", but he didn't have the idea of explaining. He turned and left on his own, and returned to his seat.
"Captain, you have become a noble?!"
Connie covered her small mouth in surprise and said in a low voice.
"Should we call you 'Lord Baron Jack' from now on?"
Maggie added a sentence aside.
"I think 'Your Excellency the Baron' would sound better..."
Alex shrugged.
Chen Lun couldn't help but smile, and just replied:
"It's up to you, but there is no need to make a fuss. This kind of title is only honorary, and there is no fief and corresponding power."
"Oh…"
Connie and the others nodded with a vague understanding.
At this time, Chen Lun picked up his number plate and looked at it. The whole body was made of gold. On the finger-sized number plate, a series of numbers were engraved——
"01061."
‘So I will be assigned to the first team of the Imperial Jury, under the command of Judge McCawlin... From the number point of view, I am the sixty-first member. '
Chen Lun thought to himself.
Based on this calculation, the total number of the imperial jury is about five or six hundred people.
It seems to be very few, but these members are all middle-sequence transcendents, and most of them are Sequence Six and Sequence Five, which is actually quite a terrifying force.
Compared with the Generous Parliament, the number of internal Golden Cup members is less than a hundred!
After all, the selection of the imperial jury is extremely strict, usually only selected from the executioner squad leader, the heads of the shelters in various regions, and the military chiefs, so the jury can be called the highest military organization in the empire.
Chen Lun raised his head, looking for the future officer, His Majesty McCawlin, in the front row, but inadvertently met a pair of beautiful and clear eyes.
"Ok?"
Chen Lun was a little surprised.
The pair of eyes came from Princess Sun. The other party turned his head and looked directly at Chen Lun's eyes with calm eyes, not knowing the hidden meaning.
The two sides did not communicate, but Chen Lun always felt that the princess seemed to want to convey some message to him. After a few seconds, Sun Princess looked away and turned her head back.
Chen Lun frowned slightly, as if thinking of something.
‘Anna Trisol...I remember that she seems to be the narrator of the game’s official CG, and...’
His thoughts were flying, as if he had returned to that dark world.
‘I remember that Arnold’s sister is also named Anna…’
Chen Lun was stunned suddenly.
‘If they are the same person, then Arnold’s identity...could it be a prince? ! '
