Lord of Glory - Chapter 249

[Chapter two hundred and forty-nine horses on the chessboard]

“Your Majesty, these long-eared spirits huddled in the forest dare to be so loud. It’s like treating us as a church and our court as nothing!”

In the magnificent cathedral covered with white sè. Oaksville was half-kneeling on the ground wearing the robe of a red-clothed archbishop, and he came to the people seated peacefully on the stage with a fierce expression. Beneath the huge statue of Inos is a throne made of silver and gold. A man with a triple crown and a robe of white gold sat on the throne. The sunlight shone from the huge glazed window behind him was so bright that people couldn’t open their eyes and couldn’t see the face of this person. Only a dark outline could barely be seen.

This man is the Pope. A theocratic emperor. The only spokesperson of Inos in the world. The head and head of the Church, the First Saint. At this moment, listening to Oxwell’s report in the audience, the pope who could not see his age and appearance just raised his hand slightly, resting on the armrest of the throne, holding his face on the side, and said slowly: “Southern The heretics are panting and restless, the heretics in the north are eyeing them, the heretics in the west are eager to fight, and now there is another heresy in the east, a mouse-eating night owl.” “Your Majesty the Pope?”

Oxwell, who was somewhat confused, asked a strange question, but heard His Majesty the Pope still stubbornly continue: “The spirit of turmoil, the fate of defeat that has survived for thousands of years makes these inferior creatures with long ears unwilling?” The Pope paused for a while, then tilted his head suddenly, as if the eyes in the shadow were looking at Oaksville: “My dagger, go ahead of those heretics with long ears. Take Sam, the president of the Night Owl Society. Redo’s head hangs in the holy city. Burned with holy fire.”

As soon as the voice fell, the Pope suddenly dropped a pure gold cross, and the latter immediately raised his hand to take it. Perhaps this cross contains some special powers. Oxwerner, whose eyes widened in an instant, bowed his head: “It is my duty to purify the heresy in the flames! May Inos bless us!” “Amen.-

The Pope muttered quietly. Watching Oxwell clutching the cross in his palm tightly, he flew out as if flying. And this is the largest church in the whole continent. Only the Pope sat quietly on the throne.

Suddenly, as if talking to himself, the Pope’s murmuring voice broke the unbearable silence: “Ye Xiao will hunt spirits. Spirits are furious and leave the forest in violation of the ten thousand-year treaty. The attitudes of various countries are swaying. Those Apocalypse people went to the night owl meeting some time ago, and they were seriously injured. Who can hurt the Apocalypse people? Who did the Apocalypse people see? Why did this mysterious person provoke spiritual anger? Could he think that all countries will do this for such a reason? A heretic and resisting the spirit? There is a conspiracy, there is a conspiracy. Who?”

The Pope, who was muttering to himself, suddenly bowed down, revealing that it was only thirty strokes. A quirky man with completely gray hair. I saw him frown solemnly, stroking the chessboard in front of him. Your side is white, the enemy is black. Arrange the black and white chessboard in two columns. Just listen to him continue muttering: “The chess pieces are already in place, but the intention is unclear. There are still dark pieces lurking in the dark.”

I saw the Pope gently stretch out his hand and hold a pawn to move forward. As a regular step in the opening. “Then, I’ll use a chess piece to test, what are your plans?” Here, the young and handsome Pope with gray hair slightly raised his head and looked at the square of the chessboard. He raised his brows and said, “So, who are you who are playing against me?”

the other side. There was an uproar in the southern countries that received the announcement from Jingling. There is no doubt that they are the first to bear the brunt of the army of spirits that will not be seen for ten thousand years. Not to mention the turbulent Norton Kingdom, the zì yóu trade union and the Duchy of Barbary. At this moment in the capital of Kasmi Duchy, in Eagle City. Alfred looked expressionless at the letter in his hand. Suddenly put it aside, stood up and said to the servant next to him: “Go and call Kaleich, I have important things to tell him.”

The servant immediately rushed out of the manor and went straight to Kaleich’s mansion. But Alfred calmly said to the servant Salander who had been following him: “Put me on armor.” The dark-skinned Salander immediately performed his duties faithfully. I took off the gauntlet and breastplate from the shelf next to it, and loaded it on Alfred very carefully.

“Lord Count. I have something I want to ask.” “Forget it.” Alfred’s face was calm, and he stretched out his hands to let Sarand put on the armor. But he heard Sarand lowered his head, and he could not see his expression and muttered to himself in a low voice: “Jīng Ling is here, are you going to start a war, my lord?” “Yes, heresy invasion. We can’t stand by and watch. It was the glory of Enos who guided me.”

Hearing these words, Salander was silent for a while. He suddenly took the liberty to say: “I have stayed with your lord for several years. I am very clear about how your lord behaves in the world. Please forgive me for my presumptuousness. Even if the Holy See issues an announcement to let the southern countries rise up against the spirit, they will still Unstable, do not dare to touch hard. And my lord, you are the first to set an example, those kings naturally dare not not follow you to fight. It is true that you lose a lot if you lose, but once you win, you are the hero who led the southern countries to resist the invasion of foreign enemies. .Maybe, the emperor of the empire will personally grant you the title.”

“Salander, do you know what a smart person is?” Hearing these words, Alfred asked without changing his face. The latter raised his head in confusion, but saw Alfred continue. : “A smart person is to let others not see that he is smart. Are you? A fool.” “Yes.” Feeling the cold light in Alfred’s eyes, he deeply knew how cold-blooded this adult was, ignoring the nobles. Honored, he immediately lowered his head to admit his mistake.

After Salander helped Alfred put on the armor, there was a sudden knock on the door: “Sir, I’m here.” “Come in.” Alfred said softly. Salander opened the door very wisely and brought in Kaleich, who was also wearing the Aries armor. The two looked at each other, refusing to speak. Salander immediately went out and closed the door with a backhand. After confirming that Sarand was far away, Kaleich glanced at Alfred, who was covered in armor, and immediately said with a strong fighting intent in his eyes: “Sir, are you really going to fight?”

“Well, but before that, you should recruit some spirit assassins who should risk death as soon as possible. I believe that with your connections, it is not difficult to find some exiled assassins.”

Looking at Kaleich’s puzzled face, Alfred took the Aries helmet and put it on his head. I was still young, but was assassinated by a despicable spirit. I, the head of the Knights of Aries, the Earl of White Orchid killed the assassin with all my strength, but the Grand Duke was murdered. Code, serve as a temporary grand duke, and lead a large army to conquer spirits. It is very justifiable.”

Hearing this poisonous trick, there was no disgust, but Kaleich, who was excited for a while, suddenly reminded: “Even if the Grand Duke dies, the first heir, the second, the third, and the fourth are still alive. How can it be your turn to be your lord What?” “Hmph, Kaleich, you must know that a despicable spirit will not assassinate only one person.” “Your lord is brilliant!”

“Don’t talk nonsense, prepare our confidant knights, you go to the palace to transfer all the guards, we just wait for the death of the Grand Duke, the master of the entire Kasmi Principality, it will be my turn!” Al said so Fred, those eyes hidden in blood-red hair, faintly flashed a golden light. That’s right, Paladin’s plan began to be implemented step by step. The horse of the chessboard crossed the pieces and took the first step. To be continued. .
