In the Angel District, to the southwest, lies a piece of land expanded by a dwarf squad.
A massive building covering approximately 20 square kilometers stands proudly, and countless soldiers can be vaguely seen undergoing rigorous training inside.
Excluding the Gates of Heaven, this should be the highest-grade building Jiang Yan has obtained so far.
He reached out and touched the edge, and a message flowed into his mind.
The Hall of Glory for Paladins
A Mythical-level building in the Holy Light system, capable of recruiting or training Holy Knights to wield the power of Holy Light.
Current recruitment limit: 3000 (resets every 100 days).
Current training limit: 0 (reset after recruitment).
Recruitment fee: None (money is a stain on the honor of a paladin).
Special Note: Every Holy Knight must pass 18 tests, including loyalty, courage, and justice, before stepping through the temple's gates. We will not allow anyone of questionable character to tarnish the glory of the Holy Light.
Upon seeing this introduction, Jiang Yan was speechless.
No wonder that in almost all biographies and legends, paladins are synonymous with justice and courage.
“Recruit 3,000 Holy Knights.”
As the command was given, the building's tightly closed doors slowly opened, and the sound of orderly footsteps could be heard.
Warriors clad in bright silver heavy armor and wielding holy hammers lined up in front of Jiang Yan.
Bang, click.
With a resounding clang, 3,000 holy knights simultaneously slammed their warhammers in front of them and knelt on one knee.
"I heed your call, Holy Lord."
"Arise, my faithful believers."
Jiang Yan slightly raised his right hand and looked at this group of solid and reliable soldiers.
【Holy Knight】
Rank: Mythical.
Class: Paladin.
Rank: Seventh-level Demigod.
Faith Level: Blind.
Core Special Ability: Paladin's Heart (Cannot be changed).
Overall score: 110,000.
Hmm, it seems a bit different from other troop types; its rating is much lower than I expected.
Jiang Yan was slightly surprised.
While having many skills doesn't necessarily mean being powerful, it seems a bit strange for a mythical-level unit to only have one ability, which cannot be changed.
After all, these are different from angels. Although ordinary angels are also only good at one or two abilities, they almost all have the ability to use most holy light spells, but they are not displayed on the panel.
He couldn't help but look at the skill description.
Paladin's Heart: A Holy Knight's strength is solely determined by their adherence to the Holy Light. Each good deed performed in accordance with the Knight's code earns 1 point of Justice.
When your Justice value reaches 10, you will unlock the ability Holy Light Baptism.
Upon reaching 30 points, one will be promoted to a lower-level god and unlock the ability Courage Aura.
Reaching 50 points unlocks the ability Holy Strike.
Upon reaching 100 points, one will advance to the intermediate god level and master the ultimate power of a paladin.
"I see, it's a growth-type unit."
Jiang Yan felt relieved and summoned the Multiverse Panel to ask, "Can the skills that a Holy Knight unlocks through Justice Points be upgraded through Talents?"
"Can."
Then there's no problem.
There may be few other things in the world, but there will never be a shortage of injustices.
Under the holy light, justice cannot be absent, nor should it be delayed.
Jiang Yan looked at the warriors and said calmly, "I will teleport you to various parts of the continent, and use the warhammers in your hands and the faith in your hearts to practice the way of the Holy Light. When you encounter injustice, use your hammers to correct it. After you have fully awakened, you can return to Holy Spirit City."
"For the glory of the Holy Light, we have an inescapable duty."
The many holy knights bowed once more.
Jiang Yan nodded slightly and snapped his fingers.
Loshia, who was constantly watching over the area, would use her divine power to precisely teleport each holy knight to those chaotic kingdoms.
After watching them leave, Jiang Yan took out the building upgrade contract and handed it to the dwarves who were about to complete the expansion of Holy Spirit City.
This timely prevented them from being left with no work.
This is not being heartless.
According to Floria, who was previously stationed in Holy Spirit City, since the photos from the New Year's Eve party were circulated, dwarf tribes from all over the continent have come to visit.
In order to maintain the honor of the old employees, the original dwarves of Holy Spirit City began to engage in fierce competition.
The newcomers thought this was normal workload, and apart from a small number of those with low awareness who were scared away, the rest joined in.
If you're tired, seek out the Healing Angel to cast Excitement and Powerful Healing spells.
If you're feeling depressed, go to the Dream Grass Garden for a one-second real vacation.
In just over 100 days, the entire Holy Spirit City was expanded more than three times its original size.
"It seems there's nothing to worry about regarding construction."
Jiang Yan felt relieved and began to think about another problem.
Currently, with Anna and three other high-ranking members of Holy Spirit City expanding like a competition, large-scale evil forces are rapidly decreasing.
However, the continent is vast, and there are still many lone or neutral creatures.
Some of them, while rejecting the Holy Light, were unusually interested in the laws of the undead.
He had always regarded the Holy Light as the only way to spread his faith, and now he realizes that there were quite a few who were willing to embrace death.
It would be a great pity if this group of people gave up.
After all, the dead do not offer faith, but living necromancers can.
However, how to handle it is a difficult problem.
There are no special units in the Netherworld dedicated to spreading faith.
Even Heroic Spirits like Sheena and Assal are better at directly turning others into allies.
This is easy to understand.
In the past, the rulers of the underworld did not possess another divine position at the same time; they only needed the essence of death. Faith was of no use to them, so they naturally did not bother with it.
Just as Jiang Yan was deep in thought, a fluctuation came from the divine kingdom.
At the same time, prompts from all realms rang in my ears.
Your divine-level lord skill and class skill have been successfully developed.
[You have mastered the Lord Skill: Faith Channel.]
[Given the unique structure of your divine realm, you have mastered an unknown necromancy-based divine skill: Reincarnation (incomplete).]
[Because you possess dual unique divine positions, you have obtained the unknown Holy Light system divine skill: God Creation Sequence.]
Upon hearing the notification, Jiang Yan's eyes lit up.
He opened his divine kingdom, and there he saw two brand-new divine spells already formed.
They hung high in the sky, manifesting as two twinkling stars, shining as brightly as the sun and moon compared to the flickering starlight generated by other divine spells.
Jiang Yan carefully sensed the changes, and all the techniques flowed into his mind.
Lord Skill - Faith Channel: Wherever faith touches, any item/unit can be instantly transported to a designated location via the Divine Kingdom by additionally consuming faith power.
Jiang Yan's heart stirred slightly, and he immediately used his skill.
A virtual star map, shimmering with countless points of light, appeared in my mind.
He tried to choose the most distant one, the one who was a missionary in the city of freedom.
One hundred thousand points of faith power were silently deducted, and a channel of holy light was instantly projected from the divine kingdom, piercing through countless planes.
Hundreds of missionaries who were praying quietly in God's Kingdom suddenly appeared in the City of Freedom.
A smile involuntarily appeared on Jiang Yan's face; he hadn't expected the Lord Skill to give him such a pleasant surprise.
This is... a divine skill in war!
In the future, when launching interdimensional wars, angels and spirits from the underworld will be able to command large armies to penetrate deep into the territory, while he only needs to stay in the rear of the divine kingdom and continuously send in support and supplies.
