Chapter eight hundred and seventeen really decisive

Compared to the last time we met, the Supreme Priest of the Goddess of Glory, Cardinal Anthony Saint Delavo, looked as if he was over ten years old. He did not look a little gray or the appearance of many wrinkles on his face, but was directly reflected in the spirit, his tired and dull eyes, his vicissitudes and gray face, and his hair that seemed a little messy when he had not looked at it carefully for a long time. He did not wear the gorgeous robe of the Cardinal, but was just a very simple priestly dressed in a priest, which was exactly the same as any parade priest walking on a country road.

At this moment, the Archbishop's Crown sitting in an ordinary tent seemed to be everywhere on the street, because he was old and his energy and physical fitness were gradually exhausted.

If it weren't for being too tired and almost overdrafted to consume physical strength, mental power and magic. Otherwise, even if you are older, how could a legendary spellcaster have such a performance? Think about the old man who is invincible and energetic, who can survive until the next century? This is really obvious in comparison.

It can even be seen from the exploration technique that the old bishop is clearly wearing a debu of "weakness" and "magic exhaustion". The former is fine, and you can recover by just having a good meal and having a good rest, but the latter is caused by forcibly overdrawing the magic power, which takes a long time of cultivation and meditation to gradually recover.

To put it bluntly, this master of divine art, who is clearly at the legendary level, can't even use divine arts above the seventh ring.

The young armed priest poured a cup of coffee for Lu Xi and his friends, but he couldn't take out the milk and sugar for a long time. He stood behind the bishop naturally, like a statue. The latter looked at the table with two plates of holy cakes. To put it bluntly, it was unleavened bread, showing an awkward smile. The monks of the Great Hall did regard unleavened bread as their usual meals, and some devout believers would choose this dry thing as the food of the day when fasting every month. But the Great Hall was also a very up-to-date priest institution. At least when entertaining guests, they would still take out exquisite meals, snacks and good wine... However, the old bishop could only take out unleavened bread.

"I'm so sorry, you came from afar. I should have treated you well. But you also saw that, my kid, all the savings in the church have been used by me to buy food and medicine, and now I have basically used up. You are much richer than the richest cardinal in the Great Hall." The old bishop smiled with a calm smile.

The first wealthy parish of the Great Church is naturally Neosfia, but it is jointly managed by the Supreme Priest of the trade goddess Vogin and the ocean goddess Carliguso.

"You didn't buy the high-priced food and medicines transported by the Neosfia merchant, right?" Lu Xi couldn't help asking.

"Except for them, in this turmoil, it is impossible for any Auckland lord and merchant to provide us with 'strategic resources'. The first priority of war is to ensure the supply of the army, which is completely understandable. Neosfia's merchants risked their lives to transport goods over, and it is also worth making more." The old bishop saw Lu Xi's undisputed expression and smiled: "Don't worry, I wrote a letter to my colleagues in Neosfia's diocese. They have persuaded the merchants in a kind way that they would not raise the price too much."

...This is really hard to say. Neosfia is a world of capital after all. The controller of capital is not afraid of power or violence, and he firmly believes that he can control everything with wealth. How can he be afraid of divine power? Well, unless the kind method your colleagues use is "that kind method".

Lu Xi felt that he was indeed a little pessimistic, but he still used a color to Nicole next to him.

The elf girl took out a celestial globe-like thing from her arms, which was the artifact-level space bag "The Sky in the Palm". Originally, this thing was kept by the team's "office director" and the only common sense and conscience. Miss Sai Xiliu, chairman of the knowledge club, but since she left the team temporarily, she was snatched by Nicole, who had a strong curiosity about everything.

The future high priest lady is of course a big child, but in fact she is quite reliable in important places. Although she is not as reliable as Sai Xiliu, Lu Xi is not completely relieved to ask her to keep important things.

"Well, this should be the sky in the palm, right?" Cardinal Anthony showed a moving expression. He was tired now and could not even use a little high-ring magic, but his eyesight and knowledge were not affected at all: "I have seen this in some secret picture books. It is said to be the treasure of the ancient Samanthals!... Well. This should be given to you by the respected Your Highness during his lifetime."

The establishment of the new Henas Vampire Kingdom, the blood clans were established as relatives by the Moon God. As well as the decisions and sacrifices made by the last true ancestor Yawen Munlet are naturally no secret for important senior officials like the Old Bishop. From his tone, he actually maintained a respect for the true ancestor who had already sacrificed.

"I brought some food and medicines that I needed urgently... Uh, sorry, because there are some other important items inside, I can only bring so many." Lu Xi sighed: "Fortunately, there are many Lambas biscuits in the middle, which are compressed military rations for the ancient elves, and soak them in water to fill them with enough amounts. Well, although this little thing is a drop in the bucket, it is somewhat of a little bit of my heart."

"This is already a very heavy gift. I thank you on behalf of these suffering people." The old bishop was not pretentious, showed a very happy smile, thanked Lu Xi sincerely, and then waited for his follow-up. He knew that the other party risked the risk and ran to the refugee camp under the Imperial Capital to find him, not just to send such a little food.

"But you should also understand that no matter how much food and medicine the Crown Prince sends, it cannot solve the fundamental problem. If you want to truly help them, you can only end the Auckland civil war as soon as possible and let them return to their respective homes." Lu Xi said.

"That's true. Now, His Highness Katerina's army has entered Seridier, and the Duke of Kaiyan and the Grand Duke of Dragon Castle have also launched troops in the Western and Southern borders respectively. No matter which side the situation will shift to, at least I can be sure that the war is coming to an end." The Archbishop smiled and said, "This may be the best news during this period."

"But it is more likely to be the heaviest darkness before dawn... If the strength of both sides is not fundamentally tilted, it will only form a decisive battle with a long and protracted corpses everywhere. The entire Sairidir region and the imperial capital will be completely transformed into a Shura field, and the noble lords who rule one side will become cannon fodder, let alone these ordinary refugees." Lu Xi said so: "I don't want this kind of thing to happen. I think you must not want this kind of thing to happen."

"... So, kid, you are not here to persuade me to fully support His Royal Highness Caterina, right?" The Cardinal shook his head, with a hint of smile: "I did refuse to participate in the current emperor's ascension ceremony. I also refused to give him blessings on behalf of the Great Hall. This is indeed because there are many unreasonable aspects of his ascension, but... this does not mean that I must be biased towards His Royal Highness behind you, right? The Great Hall cannot interfere with the secular internal affairs and the change of imperial power. This is our purpose. At the same time, it is also the reason why Yunzhongcheng has existed so far and has not undergone major deterioration."

"What's more, it's impossible to support me even if I want to support me! You have also seen that I have only more than 3 priests under my command, most of them are civilians, and a monk soldier of about 5 people led by a Knight of the Holy Tribe. This kind of manpower is very reluctant to maintain the public order of this refugee camp. Could it be that I can help His Highness the Princess seize Yongchen Palace?"

"...You are too worried. Although I am not a pious believer, I know a little about the purpose of the Great Hall, and it is even more impossible to force you to make things difficult for you." Lu Xi sighed: "It's just that I don't know anyone in the entire imperial capital. Now even the Federal Embassy evacuated last month. But now, I have to go to the city with urgent matters of 100,000, so I can only ask you. If possible, I even hope you can have some way to get me into Yongchen Palace."

"...You don't want to enter the palace to assassinate His Majesty Iken." The old bishop pondered for a few seconds, and couldn't help but make a joke that was particularly easy to laugh. From this point, it can be seen that this old man can become good friends with his invincible old and unjust, and he probably is not a very serious guy.

"If I really killed him, I could solve all the problems. Then I might have done it long ago." Lu Xi sneered: "But it's a pity, what I want to find out now is what the uncle and Mr. Bartoly are doing."

"…Baltoli? His Majesty Icon's magic consultant?"

"Men, it sounds like you know him too. Have you found any suspicious things?"

"I haven't seen it with my own eyes. In fact, since His Majesty the Sun King passed away, I have never entered Yongchen Palace again." The Cardinal turned his head and looked at the goddess of the goddess behind him: "I just heard someone occasionally mention it from my colleagues. I heard that he is indeed a mysterious gentleman, and his style does not look like an open and upright person. But since he is the guest of honor for His Majesty Icon, it is equivalent to being an important minister of the Auckland Empire. We are not secular people, so naturally we have nothing to say."

More importantly, in order to rescue the victims, Cardinal Mian brought all the combat power of the Imperial Capital Hall out of the city. After a few months, from his legendary master of divine arts, the group of paladins and armed priests who could resist the higher demons were exhausted, and their vigilance was reduced to the minimum, and they could not monitor the movements in the city at all. If that Mr. Bartoly really needed to use mysticism to engage in any conspiracy, this should be the best opportunity.

"If, I mean, what would happen if...that Mr. Magic Consultant was really inciting His Majesty to plan something and succeed?"

"The five legions stationed in the fortress in the east of the city will completely turn towards Uncle Iken. In addition, the two he has bribed him, which means that all the central army in the imperial capital will become his subordinates. This will be a huge army of more than 150,000 people, and they are elite troops built by the Sun King couple for half their lives. They have reached the top of the world with their training and organization. Each soldier is a professional soldier with complete training and training. Their legion commanders are also powerful generals with extensive experience in battles. Anyone's name is enough to shock the nations, and even make the continent of Sosnes across the sea frightened."

Anthony opened his mouth in surprise, his expression became solemn. He made a decision immediately: "I haven't entered Yongchen Palace for a long time, so it would be suspicious to go there at this time. However, Ethus should have a solution. She is my affairs assistant, but she is also the theology and history teachers of several princesses, so she must enter the palace frequently."

The priest with swords behind the Cardinal nodded to everyone, saying that he was the "Ethus" and was happy to help.

Tsk, a minute ago, I was still looking like I was not a good person, I was not helping each other and I was neutral. Why did I change my mind so quickly? Isn’t this too decisive?

"I have only one request, please do not hurt those high men. No matter what His Majesty Iken did, no matter who he or His Highness Katerina is right or wrong, these children are innocent!" The goddess said very seriously.

Your Highness you mentioned are really not innocent. You know, the reason why I came here was the news sent by the youngest one. Although Lu Xi muttered so in his heart, he said, "Don't worry, even if Karin's army captured Yongchen Palace, it would definitely not hurt her younger brother and sister. Of course, I would not know much about it." (To be continued.)
