Chapter 1725 Let’s go get [White Wolf] Askan’s vote!
New legend.
The twentieth legend.
From the Glorious Holy See, those who sit in charge of the New World Viceroyalty all year round, those who listen to orders but not propaganda, those who wander around without showing up at all, those who explore different spaces...
There are only twelve legends that can be directly used. As for the Magic Council, the number of legends in Nevis has returned to eight. If this new legend is added, the number will be nine.
"Nine versus twelve...the possibility of attacking the Kingdom of Kent is getting smaller and smaller..."
We even have to be prepared for the counterattack of the Magic Council! A legendary mage rushes in alone, bombs a certain city, pulls out a cathedral and leaves...
The leader of the Holy Knights, His Excellency [Pale Sword] Ebi Lucio, silently grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist. He himself had never done such a thing, but when the Holy Knights were performing tasks outside,
Definitely a lot of work:
When the lambs are hungry, thirsty, tired, in pain and embarrassment, and beyond the reach of human power, they will need the Lord's grace and need to pray to the Lord devoutly.
Ebi Lucio himself does not agree with this argument, and does not allow his subordinates to do this. However, there are many people who do this in places that are beyond his sight;
In the local church system and the tribunal system that are beyond his control, there are even more people who do this...
Moreover, what confused him was that even if he did such a thing, there would be no divine punishment.
God's grace to evildoers has not diminished. Those who firmly believe that they are pursuing God's will and contributing to the promotion of divine grace can also be promoted normally on the path to the priesthood...
In the end, Ebi Lucio could only talk in secret and pray silently: Lord, your will is so profound that even a humble person like me cannot fully understand it.
Then, restrain yourself and those around you more strictly, and continue on your own path firmly.
Even though he and his close subordinates had never done such a thing, Ebi Lucio was still worried when he saw that others might do this. Not only for the suffering that the people might suffer, but also for the weakening power of the Holy See.
There is a saying, when it comes to doing destruction work, magicians who master the power of elements are much more efficient than priests who master the power of divine magic and warriors who can only wield swords!
If the damage caused by a warrior is 1, a priest can reach 10, and a magician of the same level can do at least 50 to 100 damage if he only focuses on causing damage!
"One is ebbing and the other is ebbing." He heard the chief referee's voice ringing beside him, hard, tight, and dark and deep:
"We have to think of a way to contain them. If we don't contain them, it will be too late - as priests, can we only hope in the grace of our Lord?"
"Front confrontation won't work." Abby Lucio responded reflexively:
"Now is not the time to start a war. Moreover, I have received intelligence that those heretics have attracted allies from other races——"
"Of course, I got it too." The Grand Inquisitor replied impatiently. There are dragons flying openly on the beach and building nests openly, not avoiding the sight of mortals at all: isn't this claiming that the dragons had a hand?
There are also dragons who come and go in the city of pagan magicians. According to very secretive and unreliable news, there are also elves there, very powerful elves...
hateful!
Those big reptiles, those pointed ears, thousands of years ago, humans spent a lot of effort to drive them out of the continent and let the most abundant land belong to humans.
Until now, the orcs can only stay in the hot desert, the dwarves can only hide in the bitter cold Black Gate Peninsula, the barbarians are in the wasteland, and the dragons and elves are almost extinct on the mainland.
Those magicians and pagans, in order to gain an advantage in the internal struggle of human beings, did not hesitate to introduce alien races into human beings!!!
"Now is not the time to start a full-scale war, of course I know that." The chief referee's voice was light and cool, like a snake crawling silently:
"But we have to do something. If we can't start a frontal war, then we should contain it from the side, make the border inspections stricter, and let those messy things come in less. Then, try to gather some forces--"
"for example?"
"For example, the Kingdom of Brolin and the Kingdom of Rhine. Those royal families and those big nobles. If you can win over one more, just try to win over one more! And those heretics! Try to kill as many as possible. As long as those heretics are there, some big nobles will not listen.
our!"
On the throne at the end of the conference room, the Pope lowered his eyebrows and remained motionless. He just held the scepter in his hand tightly. On the top of the scepter, a drop-shaped sapphire as big as a pigeon's egg shone brightly, making his appearance even more aged.
, hair sparse and white.
Since the explosion of the Glory Holy City, he has released many large-scale magical spells and traveled among various forces, which has really made him old and haggard.
Even so, he still perfectly maintained the Pope's demeanor, his expression was calm and compassionate, and he remained calm - I watched you argue, and I waited for you to come up with a plan.
Sure enough, the local church and several cardinals started arguing with each other:
"The Brolin royal family has always been loyal to my lord."
"Several big nobles in the Kingdom of Brolin, such as the Duke of Leon, the Duke of Basque, and the Duke of Catalonia, are very close to the royal family and are also close to the Holy See. Almost all the government affairs in their territories are entrusted to
Priests."
"The Capetian Kingdom is also obedient to our Lord... It is not surprising for secular people to seek power on earth, but so far, our churches and clergy have not been affected..."
"The King of the Kingdom of Rhine, Joseph I, has recently sought the title of Emperor. The King of the Kingdom of Boi also respects and obeys us..."
All in all, the most troublesome areas are the Netherlands and the two border vassals of the Rhine Kingdom.
There was a war in the Netherlands, and the church was basically torn down and smashed. The Holy See system was almost destroyed. Even if the Holy See started a war again, it would not be able to gain the advantage of fighting on the mainland.
What's more, the Netherlands and the Kingdom of Kent are separated by the Hall Strait, so it's very convenient for magicians to go there for support!
"So, Saxony or Askan?"
[Pale Sword] Abby Lucio asked in a low voice. The Holy See's headquarters, which had just bombed the Holy City of Glory and had been relocated in embarrassment, needed to re-establish its majesty and show its power.
To establish authority, the best way is to find an opponent and fight. Annex a territory, oppress all the forces in this territory to belong to yourself, and intimidate the surrounding forces——
It is not possible to fight against an opponent that is too strong, as it will drain one's blood. For example, the Vampires in the Black Forest, although they do not occupy a particularly large area, the dark sky that covers them all year round is particularly difficult to deal with.
Not to mention, in the center of the Black Forest, there is an ancestor of the vampire clan sleeping, and according to records, he is a demigod. Even if he is killed with high-level magic, the Holy See's losses will definitely be very heavy.
There is no need to fight against an opponent that is too weak, such as a barbarian tribe in the wilderness. So what if you go on an expedition and defeat it? It’s meaningless!
Only these two vassal states have always been disloyal, disobedient, and stubborn. They openly tolerated heretics, openly intercepted them, and even drove away the troops sent by the Holy See to arrest the leaders of the heretics.
Of these two vassal states, it is best to defeat one or subdue the other - it is best to subjugate and annex the other, so that it can frighten all parties, and only then can we use the momentum of victory to snowball other small nobles who have different intentions -
"Saxony."
To the right of the Grand Referee, a knight in black armor with a solemn face said in a deep voice:
"Frozen Flower is a female knight after all. As long as her husband dies and there is a knight who is loyal to the Holy See as her husband, she will naturally gradually lean towards the Holy See. Otherwise, women will compromise for their children..."
The Pale Sword immediately frowned deeply. He wanted to kill an innocent person, interfere with a lady's father in her marriage, force her to surrender, and use her child as a hostage...
He subconsciously raised his head, and happened to look at the opposite Mr. Sigifrey, the [Unsullied Walker], and both of them saw the disapproval in the other's eyes.
However, simply using this reason to answer will definitely lead to messy refutations:
What brings people close to the Lord is the greatest favor to them, what allows a sinless soul to ascend to heaven is a good thing, and who should draw a clear line between people who do not believe in God...
In addition, he talked about long and long passages of scriptures, and he couldn't argue every time.
Precisely because he couldn't argue every time, he abandoned his position and fled into the wilderness.
Wait first, wait and see what others say... If it doesn't work, the most you can do is raise your fists and have a fight...
"Inappropriate." Sure enough, someone on the cardinal's side spoke. The archbishop who spoke leaned forward with a sincere expression:
"The Duke of Saxony is in his prime. This golden lion is not a simple thing - to say the least, even if we manage to find a daughter, the Duke of Saxony will not be unable to give birth!"
Whenever he gives birth to another son, according to the inheritance law of the Kingdom of Rhine, the son's inheritance ranking is higher than that of his daughter!
"What about Askan?"
"White Wolf is already old. Big Bear is no longer young either. White Wolf has five sons, three of whom were killed in the war. Two are incompetent and one is spoiled. There are some outstanding grandsons, but they are not old enough to be in charge.
situation;
Daxiong had four sons, two of whom were killed in the war, one was reckless and violent. The remaining one was injured and paralyzed, and could only sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, but he was the shrewdest one...
As for the paralyzed son, he was married before going to war, but had no children.
There is only one illegitimate son. He is 31 years old this year and has reached level 14. He has repeatedly made military exploits on the battlefield and is the most outstanding among his grandchildren. It seems that he will be able to take charge of the family's divine sword after making another breakthrough..."
The intention in this paragraph of explanation is obvious. [Pale Sword] frowned:
"So what do you mean?"
"What I mean is to support a person with enough potential who is committed to the Holy See to inherit the northern border vassal. In this way, the combat effectiveness of the Askan Territory will not be reduced, but the power of the Holy See will be expanded, right?
