Eight hundred and eighty-fourth chapter heresy court
"Wow, Lord Downton is so cool!"
"Damn it, why didn't I strike up a conversation with him just now?"
"If he could look at me, I would fly up a branch and become a phoenix."
The dancers gathered together and whispered excitedly, but they also knew that they could not get such a good thing, and Downton would not even find them a one-night stand partner.
"What a pity. If you had pursued him just now, even if you couldn't become his lover, you could at least get a good job."
The leading dancer touched the young girl's hair.
The girl shook her head and said nothing. For her, Downton was her savior, and it was enough for her to stand up for her.
Just as the dancers were comforting the girl, a barbarian walked in again.
"The master has told you to report to the palace tomorrow. There is a job as a maid for you. Of course, if you dislike the hardship, you can refuse."
After the barbarian finished speaking, he handed a waist badge representing Downton's identity to the girl, stood at attention and saluted before leaving.
The dancers who originally comforted the girl fell silent, but soon, a few of them began to build relationships with each other. There was a sense of humility in their conversations, while the others looked depressed and cursed secretly, why didn't they encounter this kind of thing?
Good thing?
The girl seemed to be in a dream, clutching her waistband tightly, afraid of losing it.
"Don't be depressed. This is a third-rate country that has just experienced turmoil. It has no religious beliefs and nothing to be proud of. How can you create a sense of national pride and cohesion among its citizens?"
Seeing Downton walking on the street with a depressed look on his face, Homer comforted him.
"But this is too cold!" Downton sighed, "Forget it, take your time!"
“What does power taste like?”
Homer changed the subject.
"great!"
Downton clenched his fist and decided the life or death of others with one word. It was really cool.
"This is not real power, okay?"
Homer complained.
"Then what is it?"
Downton asked rhetorically.
"When a person commits a crime and the judge sentences him to death according to the law, this is not called a right. This is justice. But when the same person commits a crime, the king can sentence him to death. He can also not sentence him to death and forgive him. This is called justice.
right!"
Homer's words silenced Downton, and he gained a new understanding of the true meaning of the Scepter Steps.
"Boy, you still have a lot to learn!"
The Cheap God hesitated for a moment, but gave up explaining divine power and royal power. With Downton's rank and experience, it was not yet time to come into contact with them.
"Let's go. Go home and check out the dungeon!"
After experiencing the conflict in the tavern, Downton was no longer in the mood to hang around, and was going to Polusna to check on the progress of the project.
The last battle, including the corpses of demons, were all transported back to the dungeon to be used to make the Undead Abomination, but before that, the Millennium Altar must be repaired.
Downton has no shortage of money, no shortage of materials, and no shortage of coolies. Homer has already given the drawings, and with Knightley as a free helper, the restoration of the altar is proceeding very quickly.
"It won't be long before I have an army of hatred. Even if the Rhine Empire comes to attack me, I won't be without the strength to fight."
Downton is very happy.
"I think the inquisitor of the Holy See of Light will definitely come to the door first than the Rhine."
Homer is a crow's mouth. When Downton returned to the palace, he was told by his subordinates that people from the Holy See of Flame were here. No need to ask. It must be about the undead. He hadn't figured out how to explain it yet, and was about to go find Ender.
Leah asked for advice, and two clergymen had already appeared beside her.
"Master!"
Downton's pupils shrank so hard that he couldn't even feel it. This level was definitely the peak of dragon slaying!
"The presiding judge has arrived and has something to ask you. Please do not take any drastic action, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences."
The two Apocalypse Judgment Knights spoke harshly, not caring about Downton's status as Hand of the King.
"Watch your attitude!"
The guard felt that his master had been insulted, so he drew his sword and glared at the two knights.
One of them walked up to Downton with a detaining attitude and ignored the guards. The other one replied with a serious face, "We are facing the king of a second-rate country. This is the same saying. Why, you don't
satisfied?"
"you……"
The guards wanted to say more, but Downton stopped them because he already felt murderous intent.
"Stop talking and lead the way!"
Although he was polite in words, Downton still took the lead and used practical actions to remind these people that he was the one with the most important thoughts here.
The knight smiled and didn't care at all. As for those guards, if they were really talking arrogantly, they would kill them, not for the sake of argument, but to defend the glory of the Inquisition.
"What are the origins of these guys? Their strength is unfathomable!"
Downton asked Homer from the bottom of his heart. With his status, he has not yet had the opportunity to contact these high-end opportunities.
"The Church of Flames worships the Goddess of Justice, who can also be called the Goddess of Flames, because she brings brilliance and hope. Under the Pope are the twelve cardinal archbishops. They divide work and cooperate to control the three major institutions directly under the church.
.”
Homer Science.
"The House of Cardinals, the Inquisition, and the House of Templars. You are a paladin, so you should be qualified to review. The one who will judge you should be the House of Templars, but this time it is the Inquisition."
"There are so many demons, undead, drow, and even more troublesome flesh hammerers on the battlefield. Naturally, the Inquisition is dispatched."
The Cheap God joked, "If you can't handle it, you will definitely be burned on the stake."
"continue!"
Downton rolled his eyes and urged Homer.
"The Inquisition is responsible for managing the beliefs of clergy and believers, and at the same time screening out believers of evil gods and heretics, and dispatching Knights of the Apocalypse to inspect major dioceses to eliminate heretics and purify beliefs."
Downton glanced back. These should be the Knights of the Apocalypse. They were wearing white robes, embroidered with gold thread, and a golden belt with a cross on it. Each one represented the heretic they had killed.
Of course, only the number of kills above the dragon slaying level will be counted.
Their shoulders were all raised and very flat. In addition, they also wore a tall white hat about a foot and a half long, with a red cross hanging on their chest. It was not used for prayer, but a
A self-destructing magic prop, used for martyrdom.
Their weapons are also very special, they are Yi Shui's flail and war hammer, which look very domineering.
"Don't underestimate them. Every Knight of the Apocalypse is selected from hundreds of thousands of knights in the Knights Templar Court. They have the strongest fighting will and the strongest faith. Once they go to war with the heretics, they will
It’s either death in battle or martyrdom. There is never a third option!”
Homer warned Downton not to do radical behavior, especially not to be disrespectful to the goddess of flame. These knights are complete fanatics. Apart from the goddess, even if the kings of the nine empires stand in front of them, they will not bow and salute, so it offends them.
If you kill them, it will be a life-or-death situation.
"It's so troublesome!"
Downton scratched his hair.
Even though Downton told the guards to disperse, they still followed up spontaneously. Especially the barbarians, they all wanted to rush forward and chop the two knights into pieces.
The presiding judge was waiting for Downton in the council hall. The Knights of the Apocalypse had already cleared the place, chased away the guards, and took charge of standing guard.
The guards did not leave, but gathered around. When Downton arrived, he saw this tense atmosphere.
"Please, the presiding judge is waiting for you inside!"
The knight made a "please" gesture, but there was not much respect.
"This is the palace of Frankfurt, are you too arrogant?" Downton did not enter. Instead, he stood still and asked these knights, "Who gave you the right?"
"Of course she is the goddess of light!"
The knights answered without hesitation. Even if they were surrounded by nearly a thousand guards, the faces of these knights did not change at all.
Two guard captains came forward to report, but were stopped by the knights.
"Is that why she allowed you to beat my soldiers?"
Downton saw a few injured barbarians who had not left. He knew the temper of these guys. If they suffered a loss, they would return it.
"Be bold and call the goddess 'she'!"
"Repent of your words and deeds!"
The faces of the Apocalypse Knights present changed, and they stared at Downton, with the majesty of their souls sweeping over them.
"snort!"
Not to be outdone, Downton fought back with the Fury of Lonely Mountain. At the same time, the elemental scepter condensed in front of him. He caught it and released his power.
"Judgement!"
A holy righteous anger raged across the entire place.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A holy shield popped up from all the knights, and four of them even condensed scepters. The guards just wanted to rush forward, but were forced back by the radiation from their souls.
"You want to disobey the goddess's will?"
The knight captain spoke, and his condescending attitude directly made Downton angry.
"What are you trying to do in this Duke's territory?"
Downton clenched his right fist tightly and punched out in pieces. He originally planned to make peace and make money, but the other party's behavior was too annoying. He was not a criminal. Why should he be treated like this?
The knight captain exhaled and raised his voice, then punched him!
boom!
Downton stood motionless, but the knight captain felt like he was hit by a battering ram, smashing into the wall and falling into the council hall, where he was buried in the masonry.
Wow!
The knight captain stood up. Because he activated the holy shield in time, he was not injured, but the look on his face changed from disdain to solemnity.
The other knights changed their previous contempt and looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
In the Western Continent, strength is the best passport.
"It doesn't matter if you want to investigate me, but please pay attention to your attitude. The Goddess of Flame has not taught you to belittle other people's personalities!"
Downton snorted, "Who hurt my soldier just now? Stand up and apologize!"
"We are teaching them the meaning of 'reverence'!"
The knight captain's eloquence is not bad either. In fact, as fanatic believers, they did not tear these barbarian natives to pieces immediately, which is considered to be a good self-control.
"Exactly, then you should also teach me now!"
Downton's eyes flickered, and others dared to be arrogant when they came to his home. If he could endure this, his life would be in vain. (To be continued...)
