Chapter 727 Chapter725 Holy Emperor

The Imperial Celebration ended successfully. At the end of the Imperial Gladiator Competition, the Noxians finally received the long-awaited news. For the first time, the Noxians felt that the festival was so long that there were many open-air banquets. After driving, my belly has increased by three sizes, and I don't know how many hidden illegitimate children will be born.

The commander-in-chief of the empire, the lord of the Demon Face, the conqueror of death, and the lord of the Emerald Territory, the immortal legend named Lester will finally ascend to the throne with the support of the people of the empire and change the corrupt hierarchical aristocratic autocracy of the past. Become the first [Holy Emperor] in the history of the Noxus Empire to possess all the glory.

Yes, in order to distinguish Jarvan's son who is on the small land on the west coast, the emperor of Noxus is prefixed with 'holy', which perfectly reflects the greatness of the empire and the sanctity of power. Just kidding, how can the emperor of Demacia, Jarvan's son, be the same? Have the same title as the monarch of the empire?

The only problem is that His Majesty Leicester's coronation ceremony was somewhat hasty this time. It followed the imperial celebration and did not give others any time to prepare.

According to the thinking of the imperial people, the supreme holy emperor has to prepare for one year or even three to five years. The palace, mausoleum and hall are indispensable, otherwise the nobility and greatness of the holy emperor of the empire will not be reflected at all.

This thought continued until Leicester personally said, "The dignity of the Holy Emperor does not lie in the empire, but in Lester. The majesty of the Holy Empire does not lie in the sword, but in the people." Once he said it, no one could argue with it, and they were all convinced. In view of the courage of His Majesty the future Emperor, these words were meant to disparage the empire, but no one found them offensive. Instead, they felt that these words could not be more correct.

Without Lester, where would the Noxus Empire be today? It was Leicester who made Noxus, not Noxus who made Leicester.

Look at the era when Darkwill ruled, and then look at the days when the country is prosperous and the people are strong, the elderly are well-supported, and singing and dancing are flourishing. Even a blind man can see who changed his life.

Under such circumstances, the empire's enthronement ceremony was held with lightning speed, and the news blew to every corner of Runeterra like the wind. The entire Runeterra was shaken for a while. There was an implicit threshold for participating in the enthronement ceremony. That means you have to find a way to get to the Immortal Fortress on time.

The only national forces that were invited were the Kingdom of Demacia, the Principality of Valoran, the Kingdom of Northland, Ixtar in eastern Shurima, and the Frostguard Clan of Freljord. The Frostguard Clan was not an independent kingdom, but it was No one doubted the Empire's natural ally.

The remaining uninvited small forces of the Noxus Empire also accepted all comers and settled outside the Immortal Fortress. However, if they want to obtain the same national-level treatment, they can only dream about it and are allowed to participate in the Holy Emperor. The enthronement ceremony is a gift. If you really take yourself seriously, the Noxians will not mind hanging a row of gratifying human head lanterns on the city wall on this festive day.

It took less than half a month from the announcement of the news to the holding of the ceremony. Although this half month was short, it was enough to reflect the true strength of the invited country.

For example, the envoys of Demacia ride dragon birds that are not weaker than Noxus, the envoys of Ixtar ride bipedal dragons, and the witches of Freljord use group teleportation magic. , as for the closer Kingdom of Northland and the Principality of Valoran, riding a horse day and night for ten days is enough to reach the Immortal Fortress.

Regarding the fact that the terrifying Noxus Empire has an additional emperor, most countries, except for Ixtal and the Freljord who have an alliance, have a fearful and pessimistic attitude.

The self-proclaimed Demacians have not really felt the top pressure from Noxus, but the rulers of the Kingdom of Northland and the Principality of Valoran seem to have seen the day when their families will decline, and want to come up with something. Haidu needs to pass through the borders of the Noxus Empire. It has no strategic depth and is like a dumpling surrounded by stuffing.

Under such circumstances, there are undercurrents surging within the borders of the country and the public security is chaotic. No one knows whether they will be tied up by their bedfellows and given to the emperor of the empire to please them when they sleep tomorrow.

Resisting the empire has become an impossible choice. The princes and nobles of the Kingdom of Northland and the Principality of Valoran only care about whether they can sell the country for a good price while carrying their own heads. The price has been set, and they are waiting. With the imperial envoys coming to "jointly build greater Noxus".

Not caring about Xiao Jiujiu in the envoy's heart, the Noxus Empire opened its doors, showing its intention to encompass the whole world and annex the heart of the eight wastelands.

On the day he ascended the throne, the Noxus Empire, which had never had a similar experience, was not prepared to refer to past rules or foreign royal traditions. According to Lester, Noxus had never needed those high-sounding To demonstrate power, the more concise and clear it is, the more it can reflect the empire's magnanimity.

The only purpose that needs to be reflected in this enthronement ceremony is - conquest.

In the Immortal Fortress, visitors from all directions on the streets are poking their heads one after another, but they can only stand on tiptoes from a distance and look at the Emperor's Road that has been blocked by the Imperial soldiers. Even so, they can't hide the excitement in their eyes.

The citizens of the empire who were lucky enough to witness the birth of the emperor up close held their breaths holding bouquets of flowers, willing to become roadside decorations.

The envoys from various countries who were standing and waiting at the special viewing seats looked solemn and solemn, and some of them had extremely bad expressions.

The expensive velvet red carpet is laid from the Imperial Avenue to the Triumphal Avenue, and then extends all the way up to the Place de la Conqueror. It is obviously an extremely simple road, but many people think it is so extraordinary.

As for the two Valkyries in the Conqueror's Square who also wore dark red metal masks, they were wearing silver armor like sculptures and holding crystal-colored glazed divine swords standing in front of the throne at the end, which aroused countless people's suspicion.

Many people don't know why, and they don't understand the identity of the two people. Only those who truly understand the secrets of the empire know that this is the first appearance of the guardian angel since the ceremony of choosing the master of the Emerald Lord's Divine Sword nine hundred years ago.

"Roar!!!"

At noon, as a dragon roar sounded, the black guards cleared the way along the red carpet on both sides, and then knelt on one knee to mark a sacred path for the ruler of the empire.

The silver dragon cleared the way in the sky, and the dragon-bird knight roared past behind him. The entire fortress instantly fell into absolute silence, and all the uneasy factors had already turned into corpses in the ditch.

"Ta da, ta da, ta da."

The mutated dragon-scaled war horse clad in dark red magic steel equipment was the first to appear. The sound of horseshoes trampling on the red carpet was dull and majestic, bringing a heavy silhouette from far to near.

The commander-in-chief of the empire did not wear the thin attire or royal robe that people imagined. Instead, he wore a magic steel heavy armor that showed the iron-blooded style of Noxus. He also wore a special Noxian sword at his waist. Style long sword.

Like a demon god from the battlefield, the imperial commander riding a dragon-scaled horse walked through the steel gate of the fortress. The cold and ruthless demon steel mask still covered the man's face. The black and red cloak behind him moved automatically without wind and clanked. There was a loud noise, which made everyone breathless.

Just by looking at the man from a distance, the viewer can feel the absolute pressure like the sky is falling and the earth is falling. The already oppressive air has taken away the last ray of oxygen, making the brain feel suffocated.

Many visitors then realized that the iron-blooded emperor of the empire was not a third-rate thing who inherited the blessings and power of his ancestors and only knew how to play with power, but a supremely powerful man who fought his way through the battlefield with real swords and guns.

This figure is so powerful that it is suffocating and makes people unable to resist at all.

As countless people looked up at him, the man on horseback walked up the Imperial Avenue. The people of the Empire on both sides knelt down spontaneously to greet the king. Some spectators further away stretched their necks to get a glimpse of the scene. , it’s a pity that most of them can only see a little bit of their backs.

In absolute silence, the man came to the outskirts of the Conqueror's Square and jumped off the dragon-scaled horse.

Shia Silver Moon, the daughter of the Wind Dragon, who landed on the square, raised her slender and proud dragon neck and glanced down at the short human. Then she lowered her head, lowered her tail, and pressed her body against the red carpet, expressing her absolute submission.

The man turned his head and looked at the guests in the audience. The guests all knelt down on one knee. Regardless of whether they wanted to or not, they all needed to pay the highest respect to the emperor of Noxus at this moment.

Within sight, everyone surrendered.

"Crack, snap, snap."

The heavy armor didn't look clumsy at all. The man's figure under the horse was actually two minutes faster than on the horse, and he quickly arrived in front of the two angels holding divine swords.

In silence, the angel raised his divine sword high and spread his four holy wings behind him. Then he turned to face him, knelt down on one knee, and made way for the conqueror.

The last 'door' symbolizing surrender was opened. With all the people kneeling in worship, the man came to the throne, turned around, took off the magic steel mask on his face, and drew his long sword towards the sky with a stern and domineering look.

"With the will of Great Noxus, the iron-blooded fighting spirit of the Empire is forged!

I am the Holy Emperor of the Noxian Empire! My name is Lester! "

After the words fell, the Noxian who had already suppressed his blushes let out a cry like a flash flood and tsunami under the guidance of a dedicated person.

"Long live the Noxian Empire! Long live His Majesty the Holy Emperor Leicester!"

"Long live the Noxian Empire! Long live His Majesty the Holy Emperor Leicester!"

"Long live the Noxian Empire! Long live His Majesty the Holy Emperor Leicester!"

In the cheers of all the people, Leicester thrust his sword upside down into the earth and stood high on the throne.

This scene was completely recorded by the magic crystal operated by LeBlanc. The magic crystal that preserved the true appearance of the Holy Emperor became the most precious non-public historical data of the Noxus Empire.

At the end of the coronation ceremony, the drastic reforms did not cause any disturbance under the absolute military suppression. It can even be said that it went exceptionally smoothly.

His Majesty the Holy Emperor Leicester recovered most of the power from the hands of the nobility, dissolved the Imperial High Command composed of the old nobility, established a cabinet and a parliament of nobility, and aristocratic democracy became history.

The cabinet ministers, who have administrative power and military action power, are only responsible to the emperor and not to the aristocratic assembly. The aristocratic assembly only has the right to consult but not to make decisions. The military and political power of the empire is held by the emperor. The imperial power is highly concentrated from the bottom up.

Since then, the Noxus Empire has officially become an absolute monarchy.

For most Noxians, they still have not seen the Holy Emperor. The biggest change in their lives is that the nobility is no longer as lofty as the old empire. This is something that even the Demacians in the West are very envious of.

The new empire completely broke the threshold between nobles and civilians. Nobles were guilty of killing people as well as common people. At the level of law and personality, "everyone is equal under the emperor" was truly achieved.

The title of a noble is no longer hereditary, but will gradually decrease with the inheritance of heirs. If you want to retain the title, you must obtain enough merit, otherwise the earl will be reduced to a commoner.

The acquisition of merit is not limited to military merit. As long as it is reviewed by the noble council and contributes to the development of the empire, it can be counted as merit after being approved by the cabinet.

Personal merit and family merit will depend on the evaluation situation. The new policy has completely revitalized the stagnant pool of aristocratic circles. Especially the old aristocrats who have inherited the glory of the family must find ways to make sufficient contributions to the empire, otherwise their ancestors will be let go. humiliated.

After the reform, although the nobility lost most of their power, they still had some privileges.

Privilege is reflected in all aspects of society, and it is cleverly balanced to the point where it does not make the common people feel resentful, but also makes the nobles feel that they are superior.

The empire chose to put the privileges of the nobility under the sun instead of being extremely secretive, so that the common people could be motivated to make progress.

In addition to the reform of the aristocratic system, the new empire began to open more than a dozen important imperial academies within the empire. As the empire's key institutions for selecting and cultivating talents, the academies include many compulsory basic subjects, elective natural sciences, Alchemy, military science and magic courses are designed to allow more Noxian young people to read and write on the path they desire and fully tap their talents.

The teachers of the school are selected from various institutions and organizations in the empire. There are age restrictions for the students who enroll. They need to take an examination in basic subjects for admission. After passing the examination, you can enter.

As for the childhood before taking the exam, more basic knowledge was provided by the [Church of the Goddess of Wind] and [Church of the Children of the Stars] in local towns.

Speaking of which, this is also another extremely important thing. The Holy Emperor Lester of the Noxus Empire, which allowed polytheistic beliefs, banned most of the sects in the country, leaving only the 'Kinklion Sect' and the 'Kindred Sect'. and the 'Guardian Angel Sect', and also created the 'Wind Goddess Sect' and the 'Children of the Stars Sect' as the imperial state religion.

Many people questioned where these two inexplicable sects came from. This doubt continued until His Majesty the Holy Emperor Leicester personally came out to stand for the goddess and made a statue, saying that he was a loyal believer of these two goddesses. Since then, Noxar The citizens of the Sri Lankan Empire devoted their enthusiasm for the Holy Emperor to the two major sects.

The teachings of the Goddess of Wind sect is 'The storms of the empire protect all peoples', while the teachings of the Sons of the Stars sect is 'The love of starlight heals all suffering'.

Statues of the goddesses Janna, the Wind Elf, and Soraka, the Son of the Stars, will be built in every town. The first batch of believers of the two goddess sects were personally cultivated by the empire and spread as seeds of faith to settle in various churches.

In addition to promoting the teachings and love of their respective goddesses, the two cathedrals are also responsible for the enlightenment education of the empire's children, forming a healthy competitive relationship to a certain extent.

At this moment, Lester didn't know what terrible consequences his preference for the two kind goddesses would lead to.
