The Kingdom of Odin 5
Where Orpheus eventually went, no one knows.
The extreme north of the Pangaea continent is snowy and icy, and there should not be any human traces here, but in recent years, there has often been a young man riding a fierce bear beast, appearing and departing in the heavy snow.
....
Joseph returned to Olympus, still wearing the white robe of the polar regions. Snow covered in Joseph's messy, untrimmed hair, is rising in the east to melt the hot sun.
Maintaining the posture of the living kneeling
He is who he is, naturally, without thinking much.
Orpheus finally fulfilled his promise. He finally died in the place that gave him new life. The era of the Orpheus monarch finally came to an end.
Joseph sighed. He gently closed his eyes. The rise and fall of the century in Joseph's mind. As a pioneer, Orpheus was good enough to be remembered.
"Let's have a funeral for you."
Joseph looked into the distance. He gently waved his hand. Orpheus's skeleton had appeared in the sky above the city of Orpheus.
They lived one hundred and twenty-four years. Their king, Odin II Moni, was still outside the war. All the nationals saw that skeleton in the sky.
"Who is that?"
"Still moving after death?"
....
Various voices appeared, but they soon stopped as they heard a voice from the sky immediately afterwards.
The voice was indifferent but not solemn, and drilled heavily into everyone's ears.
Orpheus has not lived up to God's will and has reigned for one hundred and seventeen years to create Odin's heyday.
Now, in the name of God, I receive Orpheus into the Kingdom of Heaven! "
The skeleton began to fly suddenly and surprisingly toward the sun.
The sun was so blinding that no one could see it directly, and everyone vaguely noticed that their former monarch, Orpheus, was flying precisely towards the sun.
"That...
is King Orpheus! "
It's the gods speaking! I can't believe I actually heard the oracle! "
"Orpheus is going to the Kingdom of God!"
"His name is the sun."
He should go to the sun too! "
....
Hundreds of miles apart in the tent, even Moni heard the oracle.
"Is that Grandpa!" he thought as he saw the black dot flying towards the sun.
"God is receiving him!" Grandpa's...
You are so lucky! "
Moni whispered.
....
It was a grand funeral, worthy of everyone's respect as well as envy.
Everyone knows that those who believe in God can go to the Kingdom of Heaven after death.
And a funeral held by God himself is considered the greatest honor for the whole of Odin.
....
The bronze sword in Moni's hand slit the throat of the Han River people.
The war swept through the entire Han River Kingdom unprepared, as they were rushed into battle and then defeated extremely quickly.
The Han River Kingdom was the closest to Odin and had a small population, with only 200,000 Han Riverians living in a land area of several hundred thousand square kilometers.
The Han River Kingdom was originally just a buffer for trade between the Odin Kingdom and the grasslands, and over time, many people gathered here and were affected by the nationalization of the Odin Kingdom, which also formed a kingdom.
Such a weak state did not pose the slightest obstacle to the Odin army's southern expedition, and after the death of the Han River king, Charles IV, the whole Han River was included in the Odin territory.
The march to the Han River took nearly a month, and the conquest of the Han River also took only a month.
To be honest, Moni did not want to accept these Han River people because they obviously had different beliefs from Odin; they were not God-believers; and the banner raised by Han River turned out to be a drawing of the Welsh River.
This is a country that believes in the Welsh River, and they even have the custom of making an annual pilgrimage to the Welsh River.
This foolish and ignorant belief made Moni feel ridiculous, but he could also understand. After all, these stupid Han River people had never seen God, much less known God.
Moni wanted to slaughter them or sell them to other kingdoms as slaves, but considering that such an act might offend the gods, this was not what he wanted to see.
So Moni ordered that only the royal family of the Han River kingdom be banished, and the Han River now began to become Odin's frontier. She also arranged for some Odin people to begin migrating to the Han River.
He wanted these Han River people to integrate into Odin and believe in God just like the Odin people.
All other beliefs were considered felonies and were punishable by death if discovered—something that was certainly written into Odin's law.
One hundred and twenty-six years of the Kingdom of Odin.
The first stop of the southern expedition, the Han River, had been completely digested by Odin. A large number of pagan believers were executed. Only a few escaped from the Han River to other parts of the steppe, and, of course, more were assimilated.
Taking advantage of the cooler weather, Odin left 5,000 men to guard the Han River and took the rest of the army with him to continue the southern expedition.
....
The Kingdom of Kaiser, located in the middle of the steppe, was formerly a union of hundreds of tribes.
It was quite a strange thing that they could form a state, because hundreds of tribes each had different cultural habits, just like Aden, and it was difficult to form a state.
Kaiser's Kingdom formed a national system on the one hand from the influence of Odin, but more importantly, Kaiser pioneered the creation of a federal system.
just like the extremely mature capitalist state system in the outside world, or rather the prototype of such a system.
In any case, tending to obtain common interests as well as unity against some accidents, the Kaiser kingdom eventually formed.
Today, the Kaiser Kingdom, which has been established for nearly eighty years, has been divided into seven blocks, controlled by seven different chiefs and the hundreds of tribes that were integrated into the constant exchange.
In reality, they are more like alliances, with extremely strong inclusiveness. In a few hundred years, they may finally be able to fully integrate into a complete, complex country with culture and faith.
Kaiser Kingdom's development line Joseph wondered if it was a good thing. In such a mixed country, each person may have many beliefs.
But he was not about to interfer; whether it was Odin's southern expedition or Kaiser's rise, it was not something Joseph needed to think about.
....
"The Kaiser kingdom also has a million people?" Moni heard the news from his men and frowned darkly.
"But they are divided into seven places of governance, so the calculation of the population of each place will not be too much, and they are actually not a completely unified country. Although in the face of distress they will be united, there will always be selfishness." Ando Lancer said with a calm face, "They are such a chaotic and disorganized country that even if the faith is not consistent, they can never resist our attack as the army of God!"
Ando Lancer was Olaine's son, and as the son of a military heavyweight, he had perfectly inherited Olaine's faith, as well as most of the power of the army.
"So it is." Moni nodded, he agreed with Ando's point of view.
"Then, go ahead and attack!" Moni swung his sword and pointed it straight at Kaiser.
