Tempus.
Ferrum I have never heard of this name.
He broke out of his shell in Ochre Valley and grew up in Lost Wilderness. Just to attack Tagoma Kingdom, he learned some information about human Gods from Thorn Castle. However, there is no "Tempus" in the Seven Gods of War that Tagoma believes in.
I don't know the priesthood, I don't know the origin.
"Infidels, rebels."
On the other side, Olysia confirmed the origin of the other party.
"Our lord was born between sword and shield, iron and fire. He is an ancient and pure war god. His name may not be known to everyone, but his figure walks in every Battlefield where the swords intersect. Anyone who dares to hold the sword to face death will be under the eyes of my lord."
Kahn said devoutly, and his words had a poetic rhythm when introducing the gods.
"It turns out to be a New Gods." Ferrum said.
Kahn lowered his gaze and did not refute.
"You come from the Tagoma Kingdom and believe in the god of war. Now you appear in front of me. What do you want to say?"
Ferrum checked the opponent's power. As a human, without being possessed by a guiding god, the opponent still had up to fifteen Disaster Level, which was very powerful.
But this is his military camp after all. The opponent has disarmed and is weak, so Ferrum doesn't need to be too vigilant.
"Although I come from the Tagoma Kingdom, I am not loyal to Holy Temple of Tagoma. War gods are different from war gods. My god is not I agree with the creed of Tagoma Seven, but on the contrary despise it. Today's War Sovereign Gallagath is the enemy of my Lord."
Kahn looked into Ferrum's eyes. "I think Giant Dragon should understand what I mean."
"I understand, there is an old saying in our family that the enemy of our enemy can be called a friend, so Aino Kingdom in the East is now Ashmark Lineage's friend."
Ferrum's voice became much gentler. "However, before that, I want to know the reason why your Lord is the enemy of War Sovereign, so that I can trust you."
Kahn was silent for a moment and then said, "Gallagath boasts of disorderly plunder and cruel massacre. All butchers, executioners and furious beasts can be loved by Gallagath."
"And my Lord advocates 'War Law'. Real warriors should rely on strength and courage to win glory, rather than killing the weak. There is no reason for civilians, wounded and surrendered soldiers other than Battlefield to become tributes for massacre and blood sacrifice."
"We recognize the art of war, believe that true warriors are as noble as gold, and put an end to all despicable behaviors such as the use of poison, the threat of blood relatives, and wanton destruction."
"Gallagath brings shame to the war. This is something my lord cannot bear. One day, my lord will deprive him of his authority in a holy duel."
Kahn ends his depiction.
"No wonder you want me to retreat."
Ferrum thought for a long time, "How dare a new-born god, who is still in his infancy, dare to challenge War Sovereign, who has powerful divine power?"
"A young dragon dares to compare himself to the stars."
Kahn replied, "A real warrior will not give up his fighting spirit just because he is weak for a moment. I think both of us can relate to this. This is the reason why I come here to meet you."
"What does the messenger want?"
"A great warrior deserves a lot of love."
Kahn replied, "With the guidance of my Lord, I hope that Heavy-Metal Dragon can join our sacred campaign and become the Apostle of the war."
Dragon Apostle?
Olysia subconsciously grasped the burqa. Apostle is a container possessed by gods, but Giant Dragon will never become a container. That is...
Divine Chosen?
She knew the name of Tempus. That god was not accepted by Seven Gods of War, and his followers could only operate underground in the kingdom.
However, the continuous suppression from Holy Temple has not reduced the number of followers of Tempus. On the contrary, it has increased over time, and now his followers are involved in all aspects of the kingdom.
When Olysia was commanding Southern Legion, some soldiers also secretly believed in the god Tempus.
Divine Chosen, this is a great honor and a great gift. She stared closely at Nether Dragon's face, waiting for Ferrum's reaction.
"Even when Jialagedong exists, we will not give faith to Supreme."
Unexpectedly, Ferrum actually refused. "Giant Dragon is different from humans. Human beings need the guidance and explanation of gods for everything. We dragons solve crises by relying on our own strength. I understand the kindness of the messenger, but I cannot accept it."
"This is the answer I expected."
Kahn nodded slightly, not minding at all. "Then, we would like to discuss a cooperation with Giant Dragon."
"Cooperation?"
"Cooperation, or covenant."
"I can't decide on family matters."
Ferrum still shook his head. "I can send a message to the Northern Legion and ask the leader and Legendary Dragon to discuss it with you."
"No."
Kahn also shook his head. "Not any race is qualified to cooperate with us. Power and strength are not within the scope of our consideration."
"There are differences between dragons. The disorderly plundering and cruel massacres in the north Battlefield cannot win the favor of Tempus. My Lord tests warriors and focuses on quality and ambition. I am from Golden Grain City comes out and wants to see Ferrum·Solaxus. The only ones we can cooperate with are Ferrum·Solaxus."
Olysia's expression is slightly moved, showing quality and ambition. Does Nether Dragon have the quality and ambition recognized by the gods? But why does it always hold on to a piece of clothing?
Ferrum is sitting up with a solemn expression. The sincerity of the other party is visible to the naked eye, and he can no longer treat him lightly.
"So, what can you help me with and what do you need me to do?" Ferrum asked.
"In the land you conquered, establish a new War God Temple, spread our doctrine and faith, and promote War Law."
Kahn replied, "As for help, we will not give you much help. On the glorious Battlefield, the warriors should use their own strength to compete. However, we can help you resist the Wild Hunters who desecrated Seven. When they appear on Battlefield, we will also appear on Battlefield."
"Tagoma Kingdom is going to perish!"
Olysia finally couldn't bear it anymore and said coldly, "The gods of this country actually want to help foreigners deal with their own people."
"You are wrong, Miss Elf."
Kahn turned his attention to her. "In Tempus's eyes, there has never been any foreign race, no matter Giants, elves or dragons, as long as they have noble courage, The courage and fearless fighting spirit can win the favor of War Sovereign. In some worlds that have completed enlightenment, both warring parties may be believers of Tempus, but our Lord will not favor anyone."
"Give the worldly things to the worldly people, and the spiritual things to the gods. This is my Lord's Divine Edict."
"I heard that some famous heroes in the Tagoma Kingdom cannot be loved by Seven because they claim to be nobles and their actions are inconsistent with the creed of blasphemy Seven."
"If you are interested in studying theology, you can look for the 'real' War God Temple in various places. We still have some books and documents in our hands that record the history that the blasphemous Seven tried to cover up."
"In addition, blasphemy Seven has deep-rooted control over Tagoma Kingdom. Holy Temple only needs one sentence to delegitimize the king and make the king stand in the snow to plead guilty."
"Tagoma has a very big family, called 'Rose Garland' Beoranz. The reason why that family failed to continue to hold the crown has a lot to do with its lack of loyalty to Holy Temple."
"It's late at night, I hope it won't disturb your clear dreams."
Kahn turned his attention back to Ferrum: "Now is not the time for talks. As for more details, I will wait in Golden Grain City to meet Giant Dragon again."
As Nether Dragon nodded in greeting, Kahn immediately turned and left. As a soldier, his departure was as sudden as his visit.
"He recognized me, didn't he?" Olysia asked.
Nether Dragon did not answer, with a slightly thoughtful look on his face.
Before this, Ferrum was used to Great Dragon pointing the direction for him, but this time he obviously had to make his own decision.
Generally speaking, when gods promote creeds, they will try their best to avoid confusion and misunderstanding, and they are even less likely to lie. The code taught to him by this Tempus god is the same as Valyria, and can be recognized by Ferrum.
What worries him is that if the faith is unified in his own land, will the majesty of God overwhelm the rule of the dragon? If this new war god intervenes in the world as frequently as Tiamat, it will definitely force Giant Dragon to be carried by divine will in turn.
"Leave the worldly things to the worldly people, and the spiritual things to the gods."
Even if the other party has made such a commitment, it still needs to be confirmed through gradual testing.
In fact, in the years after the fall of Supreme, Ashmark Lineage did not try to seek asylum from other gods.
It's just that most gods cannot be recognized by dragons. Gods who can be recognized do not want to get into such trouble. After all, dragons cannot provide faith and are prone to rebellion, so the family has never had a suitable partner.
Within the Dragon God who can take refuge, Tiamat is a sworn enemy. Needless to say, the god Exotic Dragon has already fallen. Gem Dragon God wants to live in seclusion and not easily get involved in disputes, which is inconsistent with the family's ambitions.
As for the Metallic Dragon god, Bahamut is well-known, but it indirectly contributed to the fall of Supreme Dragon, and the old grudge with Heavy-Metal Dragon has not been resolved.
At the same time, Bahamut requires believers to be absolutely righteous and kind, and not to do evil.
It is impossible to prevent Ferrum from doing evil.
New Gods Tempus, who is also a lowly person, is indeed a good alliance target.
Ferrum finished thinking, grabbed Olysia, and took off her robe. "There will be no other people now. Just stay here tonight and coax me to sleep."
Kahn returns to Golden Grain City with his warriors.
He reined up his horse at the foot of the mountain and turned back, looking at the camp behind him, with the dancing firelight reflected in his pupils.
"Master Apostle, these dragons are not respectful to us."
The attendant around him approached and said, "My lord's Divine Edict hopes that Ferrum·Solaxus will become Apostle. We can also complete this."
"What we need is not respect, but respect."
Kahn shook his head. "In addition, he is already the Apostle of the God of War, but he doesn't know it yet."
