Father Mawei Text Volume Chapter 254 The recruitment meeting went smoothly.

After it was determined to unify the potion market, representatives from various countries began to discuss methods such as weights and measures, potion testing, etc. There was a lot to discuss, and a standard had to be formulated. To this end, Ma Wei and others submitted the Kingdom of Windsor's potion

standards, the other three countries have also produced similar documents.

Since different countries have different definitions of potions and their materials, standards cannot be formulated in one day and will continue to be discussed in the next few days.

In the evening, representatives from various countries returned to the mansion in carriages. After eating a dinner carefully prepared by a Parisian chef, the second prince and Archbishop Brandon came to Mavey's room.

"The talks went so smoothly." Archbishop Brandon said as soon as he entered the door: "It's so smooth that it makes people very uneasy."

The second prince glanced out the window: "The security outside the mansion is still tight. I'm afraid Anatole doesn't want to let Nicholas go."

Everyone had an ominous premonition. During the three days they arrived in Paris, they did not see any high-level church officials except Archbishop Faye. The same was true for the empire. Napoleon never showed up.

"Can you contact the fleet stationed in the port?"

"No, I sent Father John to the port quietly this morning to contact Colonel Joshua to find an opportunity to leave the city, but he hasn't come back yet, and there is no news at all!" The second prince said with an ugly face: "Father John must have encountered something unexpected.

Got it!"

"We were in a hurry to enter the city. We should arrange manpower outside the city in advance and contact us regularly. If we encounter trouble, they can contact the goddess immediately."

Archbishop Brandon sighed. This was indeed an oversight on his part. He did not expect that the Wisdom Cult was so shameless and planned to force Mavey to stay in Paris!

If he had known this, he should have left two priests on board!

"No need to feel guilty." Ma Wei said: "The Knights of the Holy Silver Cross appeared as early as when the fleet entered the Somme River. They came so early. In addition to protecting our safety, I am afraid they also have a surveillance mission. That is

To prevent priests who might contact the General Church from appearing outside Paris."

The problem everyone faces now is that no one can get the message out.

Of course you can just find a newsboy on the street and ask him to take the news to the port, but the problem is that there is no priest on the warship. Even if Joshua and others know that Ma Wei is trapped in Paris, they cannot rescue him. They are surrounded by the Imperial Navy.

Can't get out either

They were trapped in Paris. Even if the General Church knew about this, they would not be able to send reinforcements immediately. Paris is located in the center of Bonaparte's first empire. If people from other kingdoms enter, the Knights of the Holy Silver Cross will immediately

Receive the message and intercept it.

What's more, the talks are not over yet, and it is not the time to quarrel. Even if Anatole removes the shield, Mavey and the others cannot leave Paris.

The only turning point is to quietly leave Paris on the day the talks end.

It is easier said than done. Unless the saint Melissa forcibly burns her soul and sacrifices herself to attract the evil goddess Tilde, no one can stop Anatole. A simple divine descent will not be effective.

De's true strength can only delay it for a while.

Sacrificing the Saint is a last resort, and the prerequisite is to leave Paris.

"It would be too difficult for us alone to break out, even with the help of the delegation from the Kingdom of Frederick." Archbishop Brandon said: "The mansion we are staying in is located on the Champs Elysées, which is the center of Paris.

It takes an hour to get out of the city by carriage! How can we avoid being captured by Anatole and the Knights of the Holy Silver Cross for an hour?"

This is simply a fantasy!

Without the help of gods, escaping from the hands of a perfect god who has awakened three times is as difficult as climbing to the sky!

"If we are not discovered by Anatole and the Knights of the Holy Silver Cross before leaving the city, we may have a chance."

Ma Wei muttered: "As long as we leave the city, we can summon the goddess for help. With Seokula also coming, it will not be difficult to stop Anatole. When the time comes, let's take a boat and escape westward along the Seine River as quickly as possible.

Once you have escaped Bonaparte's First Empire and reached the high seas, you can seek the protection of the Royal Navy."

The plan is simple and crude. In summary, there are only three steps:

1. Escape from Paris.

2. Flee westward along the Seine River by boat, notifying the General Church on the way and asking them to send people to meet them in the West Sea.

3. Join the reinforcements and repel Anatole.

As long as the main church can be notified, the goddess will come as quickly as possible.

The hardest part is the first step, escaping Paris!

How to escape?

According to Ma Wei's observations in the past two days, at least hundreds of members of the Knights of the Silver Cross gathered around the residence and near the Champs Elysées, and there were even more police officers.

Even if they fly from the sky with wings, they will still be shot into a sieve.

Alarming the Knights of the Holy Silver Cross is nothing. The accompanying priests, demon hunters and bishops are not vegetarians. The key is that alerting the Knights of the Holy Silver Cross is equivalent to alerting Anatole. He faced Anatole in the center of Paris where he could not get the help of the goddess.

Thor, they have no chance of winning!

"There is only one chance." The second prince said: "Now Anatole has not used coercive measures because the meeting has not ended, and Nicholas has not rejected him for the time being. Once we try to escape, Anatole will know that Nicholas is not willing to submit to him.

, he will be imprisoned by then."

"Yes, Paris is now under martial law. There are informants everywhere, and the news cannot spread at all, right!" Archbishop Brandon suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Mavey: "You said before that Anatole planned to

Did Duke Maria tell you about forcing you to stay in Paris?"

"Yes, it's her."

"She's Freya's."

"Cousin."

"Can you ask her for help?"

"That's right!" The second prince slapped his thigh and said, "Maria is the Duke of the Empire and a popular figure around Napoleon. If we can let her act as an internal agent, it will be much easier for us to escape Paris!"

"She is very weird." Ma Wei organized his words, frowned and said, "I don't really want to ask her for help."

On the night of his contact with Maria, Ma Wei used a real pocket watch to test her, and as expected, obtained the result that she was related to the power of the ancient gods.

She and Freya, the Four Supreme Pillars, are in the same group!

Asking the devil for help. The risk is too high.

Archbishop Brandon and the second prince, who were unaware of this, did not have so many worries: "You are still afraid of this now! Nicholas, Anatole's target is you! If you are left in Paris, our previous preparations

It’s all in vain!”

".let me try."

Ma Wei was unsure whether Maria would help them. You know, disobeying Anatole's orders is a serious crime!

"It just so happens that the Manstein Potion Company has a branch in Paris. You can use the excuse of patrolling and establishing a branch to convey the meeting information to Maria." The second prince suggested: "She is probably our best hope of escaping Paris.

Come on, don’t waste the opportunity, Nicholas! If you have any requests, just agree to them first! It doesn’t matter if you sacrifice your appearance!”

"Your Highness, Princess Maria"

"What's up with her?"

"It's okay." Ma Wei hesitated. Sexual orientation is a personal privacy. Even if Maria is related to the devil, he should not reveal such a secret that has nothing to do with business.

So what if the second prince and Archbishop Brandon knew?

It makes no sense at all!

"It's settled! Tomorrow Archbishop Brandon and I will go to the meeting as usual. You, Stull, Smith and others will go to inspect the branch, and everyone will split up!"

"good."

The next day, after breakfast, the second prince and Archbishop Brandon took a few priests and got on the carriage to Notre Dame. Ma Wei was very leisurely and ate the cinnamon omelette leisurely. His mission today was

I have plenty of time to inspect the branch.

Stewart, who had fully recovered, was already alive and kicking. He seemed to have endless energy. While praising the tenderness and juiciness of the steak prepared by the Parisian chef, he picked up a cigarette and took a nice puff.

"Hoo Nicholas, I'll leave as soon as I finish smoking this cigarette."

"Um."

Mavey put the letter he wrote last night into his arms, and after Stewart finished smoking, everyone got into two carriages and headed to the Place de la Bastille in the center of Paris under the escort of the Knights of the Holy Silver Cross.

The Place de la Bastille was built after the demolition of the famous Bastille. In order to commemorate the revolution, a 52-meter-high bronze column was erected in the center of the square. There was also a statue symbolizing freedom on the top of the copper column. However, it was restored after Napoleon.

After he ascended the throne, the empire was restored.

After returning to the throne, Napoleon did not order the bronze column to be demolished. Many people thought that he would demolish this unsightly column, but in fact he did not. Napoleon even ordered people to renovate the bronze column, saying:

"It will come in handy if one day I fail to restore you to glory and you are willing to overthrow me."

The Manstein Potion Branch is located on Saint-Sabine Street next to the Place de la Bastille. The representative selected by Ma Wei personally, a member of the Aurora Society who now goes by the pseudonym Bastien Thom, rented an entire building.

The house was cleaned up before Mavie and others came to Paris. It is still being renovated. The prototype of the company has already been formed and the signboard has been hung up.

The branch has just been established, with only Bastian and a disguised member of the Aurora Society accompanying him. The business has not yet been launched, and there is no potion at all. These are not important, as long as the meeting ends successfully and the potion market is successful.

After opening, within a month, goods full of potions and materials will arrive at the Port of Paris, and the cargo containers will fill the warehouse.

"Mr. Manstein!"

Bastian, who received the news in advance and knew that Ma Wei was coming to inspect today, came downstairs with his companions to greet him, and he was very excited.

"Call me Nicholas." Mavey said: "There are three Mr. Mansteins here."

"yes!"
