356. Chess Player
When she came out of the woods, Sean's face was gloomy.
He got the answer he wanted to know.
But that answer was not what he wanted.
Because the person who was sent to track him actually came from the Church of the God of War.
From the very beginning, Sean knew that the factions within the God of War Church were severely divided, but he did not expect that it would be so serious.
From the hunter's mouth, Sean learned that the situation between the Pope and the two saints had been in harmony for many years, but the Pope's strength has improved slightly in recent years, so the two saints had to guard against each other while forming a fragile alliance. However, this situation has been maintained for a long time, so now the three parties are working hard to change to get rid of this situation of neither up nor down.
Considering the particularity of the Church of God of War, even if there are some disputes and conflicts between the three parties in private, they will be controlled as much as possible within a relatively limited level. Because if a large-scale civil strife occurs, the enemy of the Church of God of War will only succeed. The St. Joles Empire has been thinking about infiltration of faith in the Northern Principality Federation for a long time, and the Emirates Empire has also thought about expanding the territory of the empire for a long time.
So in fact, the Northern Principality Federation is not as relaxed as the outside world thinks.
And at this time, the appearance of the saint Emily seemed very subtle.
All three parties saw hope for a change in the situation at the same time.
No matter which side, as long as Emily can win over the joining, they can immediately form a complete suppression of the other two sides.
However, because the God of War issued the oracle's order to send people to welcome Emily's return, the Pope invisibly was the first person to approach Emily. Among them, as long as the Pope operated a little, it would be easy to allow Emily, who was temporarily helpless and helpless, to stand in the Pope's team. This would undoubtedly be a powerful help for the Pope faction that had already vaguely suppressed the two major sages.
However, Sean could imagine that with the current chaotic situation of the Church of the God of War, once Emily defected to the Pope's faction, no matter what the considerations were, it would be impossible to leave the Pope's faction. He was determined to turn the Church of the God of War into a one-man religious organization like the Morning Light Church. The Pope would never let the Son of the Holy Son again. The power of the Saint was expanded, and he would only hold everything firmly in his own hands.
Similarly, the other two holy sons who were eager to expand their strength would never choose to be on par with Emily. All they wanted was to take advantage of the influence that Emily might have. However, because the Pope was close to the water and the moon was first given, the two holy sons naturally had to think of something else. If it really didn't work, they were thinking that they would rather kill Emily than let Emily arrive at the Marz Hall.
No matter which faction Emily chooses, she will only be a pawn.
In the eyes of the Pope and the two holy sons, Emily obviously had to choose to join one of the three of them, and had never considered whether Emily had the possibility of establishing a self-employed party. Perhaps, in their opinion, Emily did not have the strength or possibility to form a team by herself, because even they had spent a long time, energy and financial resources, and finally had the status and power they had today.
If Emily was to make trouble by herself, she really had no other choice than to choose to be a chess piece - although it seems that she is just a chess piece by Sean now. However, as if she was regarded as a victim and a chess piece by the Church of the God of War, Sean was undoubtedly much better for Emily.
It is precisely because of this. After hearing the hunter's words, Sean knew that not only Emily, but all the people who were related to Emily were probably targeted.
This is the answer Sean wants to hear the least.
And this hunter comes from the Holy Son faction named Bissus.
This is the second answer Sean wants to hear the last time.
Among the two great Sons, Bissus has the unique identity of the Chief Son. It is equivalent to Hittery's identity as a church of life, with a very special identity. However, unlike Hittery, Bissus has a few dozen streets away from Hittery's influence, both in power and appeal. Nearly half of the Knights of the God of War in the entire church obey him. This is the real reason why he can challenge the Pope and another Son.
However, the other Son was naturally powerful to challenge Bissus. More than half of the war priests in the entire church obeyed him. In addition, he had two private armed forces. In terms of military war capabilities, he was comparable to Bissus. The only thing inferior was that his own divine power was not as powerful as Bissus, so he failed to win the name of "Chief".
In fact, if these two saints really join forces, even the Pope would have to retreat. Unfortunately, these two people were wary of each other, so they finally allowed the originally weak Pope to have the strength to suppress one of the saints alone. But even if the situation has become like this, the two saints still do not have the idea of unity, and at most they would not be so serious about each other.
After the information of the hunter, Sean finally knew why he felt dangerous to Luo Fucheng.
The Knight of the God of War in that city was the man under Bissus.
When Bissus learned that Marz had descended the oracle and asked the Pope to come to Dunma Town to welcome the Saint Emily, Bissus immediately ordered the Knight of War to approach Emily, intending to grab a real near-water tower. Unfortunately, when Bissus' order was passed, Sean happened to take Emily to Black Iron Castle and settle down with Count Hecarome. Semeth met, so the two sides passed by.
But it was precisely because of this passing by that this Luo Fucheng's God of War Knight had an impression of Sean.
He could not attack Emily, nor could he attack Shawshank, who belonged to the same church, but it did not mean that he could not attack Sean. Originally, when he received the news that Sean had purchased horses and dry food in the town of Dunma, he had already started preparing near Rofoo City, and just waited for Sean to appear to take it down. He wanted to know what Emily, the saint, had deceived everyone and went to Earl Hecarome's Black Iron Fort.
But what he didn't expect was that just after Sean left Dunma Town, he suddenly changed directions and walked eastward. The people in Luofu City were caught off guard in an instant and could only send two hunters to follow and dispatch people to pursue them. After all, as a city's church guard, even if they were under Bissus, they could not leave blatantly, especially the captain who was responsible for leading the entire team.
Unfortunately, they obviously miscalculated Sean's strength, so the two hunters were buried here.
After asking for information, Sean did not torture these people anymore. She simply added a sword to them, and then quickly dealt with the corpse. In fact, Sean didn't need to do too much, because although there were no monsters in this forest, there were other wild beasts. All Sean needed to do was to spread the smell of blood and then deal with some more obvious traces. After making it impossible to accurately judge Sean's strength, he left the woods.
However, in this process, Sean accidentally discovered that his fighting spirit seemed to be condensed, and his physical fitness seemed to have improved slightly. Although the improvement was very low, and it was even a slight improvement like an illusion, for Sean, who had reached the peak of the golden peak of the upper stage, no slight change in his body could escape his sensation, so he was 100% sure that his physical strength had indeed improved slightly.
It was like the void power that caused lacerations to his body was absorbed and fused a little by his body in this battle.
At this moment, Sean truly understood the meaning of what Heglis said to himself before, "As long as you live, you will understand the power of the Holy Land."
But at this moment, even if Sean wanted to check his body well, he knew very well that the time and place were wrong now. Because Bissus's God of War Knight would soon catch up. So Sean stopped making any stops. After he turned over, he rode his horse wildly for a whole night. At dawn, Sean fed the horse again, and then did some tricks on the pony, and then made up a sword to make the pony run wildly.
He himself chose to detour to the northeast, intending to move forward along the edge of the Karumma grassland. Although he was still traveling to the Principality of North Rance, this time he did not intend to enter the city, but planned to stay in those small villages only.
Because the church construction specifications of the Church of God of War are strictly divided, for example, in those small villages, at most, they can only build small churches. Often, it is good if this type of church can have a third-level priest in charge. Most of the time, they are just first-level missionaries or second-level priests, which is an excellent lurking place for Sean. Because these people's ranks are too low and it is completely impossible to be valued by the pope or the two great sects of the Church of God of War, the possibility of becoming their pawns and surveillance is almost zero, which also gives Sean enough time to think about how he will arrange his own affairs next.
The most important thing is naturally how to allow your body to absorb the power of void remaining in the body as soon as possible.
Because Sean has discovered that simply regaining his body and not elevating him to the Holy Realm. If he wants to obtain the bronze body, he must let the power generated by the Void Storm be integrated into his body to maximize his strength - after all, the way the warrior wants to become a powerful man in the Holy Realm is completely different from those in the magician and priest system.
The latter two use magic and divine power to transform their bodies to achieve the level of being able to withstand the power of laws. Their physical strength may be inferior to that of warrior professions, but there is no difference in the level of rules utilization. In other words, because magic and divine power are used to strengthen their bodies, it is easier for people with warrior professions to be promoted to the holy realm than those of warrior professions.
The fastest way Sean can think of to integrate the power of void into his body is to achieve his goal through constant battles. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
