Chapter 0376: Vivien
Vivien Renard hadn't heard of the name, and he turned to look at the others, and saw that everyone was at a loss.
Looking at Lei Dawang's nervous and vigilant appearance, Lei Ye knew that the other party's strength should not be underestimated, in order to verify the identity and intention of the other party, he asked a very idiotic question: "Are you an angel?"
Vivien was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then smiled like a flower, and replied truthfully: "No, I am just a judge of the Holy See's Inquisition. ”
Hearing this, Renard was also stunned, knowing that the other party was not small, his expression suddenly became a little respectful.
Although the Holy See's control over the northern continent is far less than it was hundreds of years ago, it is better not to offend than to offend, especially since the members of the Inquisition who are known for their bloody brutality are standing opposite.
As we all know, the Papal States are a religious state, and the Pope is the supreme head.
Under it there are cardinals, also known as cardinals, who are directly appointed by the pope as supreme bishops of the Holy See, who are responsible for the ministries of the Holy See and the important dioceses in many countries.
Under the cardinal is the metropolitan, who is the bishop of the church in the church of other national capitals.
Under the metropolitan is the chief bishop, the head of the church in the capital of some weak country or in a particularly important city.
Below the chief bishop is the ordinary bishop, usually the head of a diocese.
Then there are the priests, priests, and priests, who are very ordinary clergy who assist the bishop in the administration of the diocese and usually attend the diocesan celebrations and weddings as officiants.
At the lowest level are the monks and nuns, the lowest level of staff who serve the Church for life.
But don't look at their low status in the Holy See, in fact, even the nobles have to be polite to them, after all, the people who can become monks and nuns are all professionals, and their strength should not be underestimated.
Of course, the above is only the power organ of the Holy See in terms of government affairs, and if it wants to maintain its absolute rule, it will not work just by cheating and abducting, and it must also have the strength to crush the subordinates.
The Holy See has done a very good job of maintaining its rule, with the Knights of the Protectors, the Crusades, and the Inquisition.
The most powerful of these are the Knights of the Cathar, who are staunch supporters of the Holy See, and who have swept across the northern continent and laid the foundation for their rule.
As for the Crusaders, it was originally composed of the most elite coalition forces in the northern continent, but unfortunately it was completely wiped out during the Eastern Crusade.
The most sacred secret is the Inquisition, an organization that nominally punishes the great evildoers on behalf of the gods, but in fact it is used by the Holy See to exclude the existence of dissidents.
In the early days of the Holy See's rule over the northern continent, the situation was very unstable, and frequent uprisings broke out in areas with weak rule, and it was time-consuming and laborious to mobilize the knights to suppress them, so the Inquisition came into being.
This organization is composed of powerful professionals within the Holy See, and the lowest strength is also legendary warriors or great magicians, who use decapitation strategies to quickly quell the rebellion, and anyone who is targeted by them will disappear without a trace.
The woman in front of her, who claimed to be Vivien, was from the Inquisition, and I am afraid that only such a terrifying place could give birth to such a young but terrifying strong man.
Not knowing the other party's intentions, Renard did not dare to act rashly, he asked in the gentler tone possible, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Lord Vivien, how did you end up among the victims?"
If the other party is running by himself, then the situation is really not good, if it just happens to pass, then everything will be fine.
Vivien's radiant wings dissipated as if a fairy had fallen to the earth, and she was relieved that she knew the Inquisition's great reputation, "You don't have to worry, I just happened to pass by. ”
Lei Ye breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "If there is anything you need help with, please feel free to speak." ”
Vivien smiled lightly, she glanced at Ray Dawang, and nodded kindly: "I have no ill intentions, I came to Cape Lookout this time, just because the Pope sensed that an evil existence was about to come, so let me come to investigate." ”
The reason for the existence of evil, as the Inquisition used to say, was that all those who were called evil were taken away by the Holy See and tortured to death.
Renard was a little more humble: "I hope you can get something." ”
Vivian nodded, looked at Lei Ye with burning eyes, and said, "I have already gained a lot. ”
Seeing this, Lei Ye's heart tightened, and he forced a smile and asked, "What are you looking at me like this?" Could it be that I am the evil existence you said you said?"
Vivien shook her head and smiled, "Of course not. ”
Renard suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and felt really uncomfortable: "Then what do you mean by looking at me like this?"
Vivien's next words made him wary: "I'm just curious about how good the guy who snatched the Carlos woman is. ”
Carlos? If it weren't for the other party's reminder, Lei Ye would have almost forgotten about this potential enemy: "Does he have anything to do with you?"
Lei Ye couldn't help but wonder secretly: Could this guy be Carlos's sister or sister, or an admirer of the other party?
Vivien shook her head slightly: "Of course, it doesn't matter, but Carlos's mother, Her Excellency Philomena, is the cardinal in charge of the Inquisition. ”
Her words came to the world like thunder, and the thunder master was scorched on the outside and tender on the inside.
Carlos's mother was the cardinal in charge of the Inquisition?
If Carlos only had the Kingdom of Tornia and the Jonathan family standing behind him, the Emperor of Constantinople would not have paid too much attention to it, and the Prince of Wales would not have had to marry him despite his daughter's objections.
If there is a behemoth of the Holy See standing behind it, it makes sense, and any force has to pay three points of respect.
Renard smiled bitterly, "Did you show up to tell me this?"
Hearing this, Vivian remembered her original intention, and hurriedly shook her head and said, "I'm just afraid that this beautiful land will be infected with blood, so I'm out to help." ”
She looked at the refugees outside the city and said, "Their emotions have been calmed, now you can continue to give orders." ”
When Lei Ye heard this, he looked down curiously, only to see countless refugees kneeling on the ground in a praying posture, softly chanting words such as angels and gods.
He was awe-inspiring in his heart, and he was even more jealous of the Holy See, raising a butcher's knife might make people fearful, and controlling faith could make people enchanted.
Looking at the pious and enthusiastic faces of the refugees below, I am afraid that Vivien's words will make them dare to directly attack the city in a suicidal way.
Renard didn't dare to delay any longer, and said directly: "Everyone line up in the wilderness five hundred meters away, and I will distribute food and water to you, as well as necessary treatment." ”
The imaginary picture of the crowd dispersing did not appear, and the refugees still knelt on the ground with reverent faces, as if they had not heard anything.
Seeing this, Vivien smiled and repeated Lei Ye's words, and then saw the refugees get up one after another, supporting each other and walking towards the wilderness in the distance.
