The Future (9)

"It looks pretty good..."Under the gaze of the soldier who volunteered to become a follower, Pandra, Li Xuan got out of the carriage, stood on the stone brick floor and looked at the city wall behind him, and whispered...

Although the city wall in sight is not as grand and tall as Suncheonfu, it is still the tallest of the short in European cities...

The tall walls made of adobe bricks are quite solid, and the thickness is as high as a man... It's just several times stronger than the walls of the capital where European monarchs lived... I don't know how to glue them together in terms of materials, but anyway... The momentum is still good.

"Master Otto has ordered me to take my husband to the cathedral...", said softly as a young soldier of twenty years old, still with a respectful expression...

It may be that this young man still doesn't have any city after all, and the joy hidden by his reserve still can't help but be overjoyed...

"Sir will definitely be able to join the Mandate of Heaven this time..."Pandra said excitedly, as if he had joined the Mandate of Heaven

In his opinion, Li Xuan, who saved almost half of the entire army... According to the merits, the worst can become a priest...

In this era when divine power overrides imperial power, joining the Mandate of Heaven Church and becoming a priest is like becoming an official in the court... This is a civil servant, an iron rice bowl, a high status, and all kinds of privileges...

This is also a shortcut for commoners to ignore the bloodline inheritance and become nobles and masters as soon as possible... Although this shortcut is very difficult, it has become a longed-for hope...

The so-called one-person ascends to heaven, as long as Pandra, as an entourage, joins the mandate of heaven, then his status will rise... As a commoner, he only had the luxury of being able to become a priest's bodyguard... It's better than being a soldier and spilling blood, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't have much culture, he would also want to challenge the more important position of steward.

"Presumably, if the children of the Apokalis family keep their promises... Bishop of Destiny gave me a face..."Li Xuan, who had taken a moment to master the ancient European language, said with a confident smile...

In other words, it shouldn't be a big problem for a mere priest of the Mandate of Heaven?... When Li Xuan thought that he was a future [Sage] and now wanted to come to find a little priest, he felt inexplicably complicated...

It's called.. Do you go back the more you get mixed up?

When Li Xuan, who had been smooth sailing, began to think crankily... Otto Apokalis finally met the Bishop at St. Peter's Church...

"No, I can't. "Silence permeated the church hall like water, but it was shattered by a sudden sound of old voice...

"Lord Bishop, if we let the envoy of the Ming Empire join the Mandate of Heaven, won't the other party's power be used by us?" said Otto anxiously...

"We still don't know about the [Immortals] in the East, but we can learn more about this Chosen One under her, maybe we can find a way for the Immortals to conquer the Shenzhou Continent in the future..."

"Eastern Continent..."The Bishop couldn't help but sigh, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice, "The Mandate of Heaven can't attack the Eastern Continent anymore... This time our losses are already very large...."

In fact, this expedition that went all out to the east but had no gains even made the Mandate of Heaven consume the wealth of many years, and now the Mandate of Heaven is extremely weak... Even the daily expenses are very reluctant...

Recently, the weather has not been good, the peasants' grain production has also decreased, and the people have less money in their hands. Destiny has also received fewer donations...

For this reason, the bishop did not worry less about the destiny of heaven... He even plans to introduce some policies to amass wealth and alleviate the pressure on the Mandate of Heaven...

"But," said Otto, reluctantly, "... That Ming Empire Chosen One also has a magical healing ability to cure epidemics, and he has also saved many people, if the other party joins the Mandate of Heaven to serve, maybe he can research more things..."

"........" the bishop closed his eyes a little tiredly and thought for a moment...

"No... This undermines the majesty of the Mandate of Heaven. The old bishop opened his eyes, and said calmly with his turquoise eyes... Looks approachable, kind face, expressionless...

Because the war has plummeted the status of the Mandate of Heaven in the hearts of the people, if the Mandate of Heaven accepts the people of the enemy country who killed the soldiers as priests, what will be the effect on the people who have lost their loved ones because of the war?...

Even countries may think that this is a resignation to the Mandate of Heaven... If the former lion is weakened... So what will the surrounding wolves do...

"But—" The bishop muttered for a moment, and Otto, who had lost hope, couldn't help but hope again...

"Since the other party's ability is so useful... I really can't let it go..."Being able to save the dying is indeed a miraculous ability in this era, and the Mandate of Heaven should indeed be studied... It would be better if it could be mastered, and the nobles would not be stingy with money when it came to medical treatment.

"Let's get it," the bishop made a decision quite resolutely...

"Bishop!" Otto's handsome face turned white in an instant... What is this? I promised to help the other party join the Mandate of Heaven, but now instead of succeeding, I have harmed the other party?!

"The power of the Ming Empire's envoy is very strong, even if it is Kalian, she is probably not the opponent of the other party when she is injured now!" Otto hurriedly took a step forward and said loudly...

He knows Kalian's temperament very well, and he is sure... For the envoy of the Ming Empire who saved so many people on the road and also treated her, the [Just] Karene would never follow the bishop's order to arrest the other party...

This is Karenne Kaslana...

"That's enough, Otto! Recognize your identity!Even if the enemy is a little stronger, don't forget that we still have tens of thousands of troops and the Knights of Destiny!" Without waiting for the bishop to speak, the cardinal beside the archbishop... At the same time, he was also a relative of Otto, and loudly rebuked...

Even if she is the strongest Valkyrie Kalian, she can't resist in the face of the Mandate of Heaven's wanted... No matter how strong a person is, is it possible that he can still be an enemy of ten thousand people?!

"......." Otto lowered his head helplessly, clenched his hands and slowly let go... Aside from the identity of the Apokalis family, he is indeed just a priest... There is no right to question the bishop ...

"Let's go down... Otto, I look forward to the new weapons you will develop later. The bishop shook his head, raised his wrinkled hand and waved it softly, with a kind look on his face...

“.…..” Otto couldn't say anything more after all... He just said "I see...", then turned around and walked briskly out of the church that had made him feel a little hard to breathe...

The sunlight that shines through the glazed windows is briefly obscured by the clouds, and the old bishop bathed in the sun is once again swallowed by the shadows...

………………………………………..

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao... I failed to keep my promises. Otto, who had a certain affection for the envoy of the Ming Empire who had met him because he helped Karen heal his wounds, said apologetically...

"Destiny is so difficult to join?...." Li Xuan was a little surprised... He healed so many soldiers, and he had the help of the Apokalis family... I still didn't join?!... It's a shame that he sold such a big favor...

"......" Otto took out a large bag of gold coins from his pocket with an ugly face and stuffed them into Li Xuan's hand, gritted his teeth and said, "Because of Mr. Xiao's identity, Destiny may even issue your wanted warrant next..."

"?!" Li Xuan subconsciously took the gold coin that was useless to him...

Although there have been assumptions... But he was still a little surprised that Destiny really dared to do this... Anyway, he saved people, a typical farmer and a snake...

"Mr. Xiao, hurry up and get out of the city now, you won't be able to get out if it's late..."Otto admonished... He glanced behind him a few times from time to time, and the movement of Destiny was not so fast...

"....." Li Xuan flipped the gold coin bag in his hand, threw it casually, and muttered, "This is too shameless for me..."

"Your Highness Otto..."Li Xuan pursed his lips and threw the gold coin to the entourage soldier standing beside him, and Pandra opened his mouth and said..."I have a question..."

"What?" Otto asked patiently, though he was a little anxious...

"Is the Bishop's body still strong and strong?" Li Xuan asked Otto's words that he didn't understand... Makes him a little confused... It's like enemies meeting each other, not fighting, but asking each other if they have eaten?...

"It's okay, it's okay..."After a pause for a few seconds, Otto nodded his head...

"I'm relieved to hear you say that..."Li Xuan smiled... He was still afraid that the other party would have three highs, and he would be a cerebral thrombosis pill if he was a little frightened... After all, what happened is affecting history and the future.

“???”

The current bishop of the Mandate of Heaven, who regarded Li Xuan as an outlier lone wolf and did not pay any attention to it, deeply felt the fear of being dominated by Godzilla in the following time...
