Chapter 132: The Scarlet Gospel (6)

(Cat pounces Chinese http://www.mpzw.com.)

www.mpzw.com) Loria had imagined countless times a meeting with Count Snowman or his representatives.

She imagined that the Count's representative was a rude, arrogant, stupid, and obscene-looking man who might despise himself because of his youthful appearance, and who, after several rude offenses, was finally knocked to the ground by the unbearable crusaders and their retinue, and tied up for ransom.

And the Count she imagined must be a fat and greedy man, who, after a period of hypocritical calculations, pretended to redeem the messenger, but sent an army to fight against him.

Of course, the end result must be that the Count's army was defeated, and he once wanted to humiliate Loria, but after the defeat, he begged for his life......

……

In the temporarily unfinished church, in the temporarily arranged reception room, Loria squinted her eyes and thought: the face-slapping novel is really not a basis, and it is too stupid to expect a face-slapping plot to happen in reality.

"Coming back from the dead, an endless army of the dead is unimaginably terrifying. On the opposite side of Loria, an old man dressed very well sighed, "No wonder the knights are so powerful, they are warriors who have survived the battle. ”

The old man looked at Riotus, who was standing behind Loria, and he stood up and greeted him slightly, and said without pretentiousness, "Allow me to greet the great warrior. ”

Riotus blushed, scrambled to know what to do, and he opened his mouth to say something in a hurry, but when the words came to his lips, he was glared back by Loria's eyes.

This scene was also seen by the old man, he smiled slightly, and said nothing.

This polite old man was none other than Earl Xueman's messenger, and was said to be the earl's most trusted butler. The old man, who was very different from the arrogant and obscene appearance of Loria's imagination, spoke and behaved very elegantly, even when he first heard that Loria was the person in charge, he never showed any other expression except a gentle smile.

"You've won the prize, and now that King Meow has been destroyed, what the Kingdom of Lordaeron really needs is a knowledgeable and wise man like you. Loria said nonsense with an unchanging expression.

Riotus's face was about to crumple into a shriveled orange, and he pretended to straighten his helmet, but he really didn't have the confidence to show it, so he had to put his visor down, revealing only his two eyes.

Listening to the two of them flattering each other without the slightest sense of hypocrisy, Riotus almost really believed that the two were worshipping each other.

When he thought that the conversation might go on forever, the old butler finally changed the subject.

"I am deeply ashamed that I have not been able to welcome you to the Earl's realm sooner...... I wonder if there's anything I can do for you?"

"After the victory in the war against the undead, in order to repay the gift of the Holy Light, and to prevent the reappearance of the dead in other countries, Archbishop Joshua Depan called on every believer to spread the Gospel of the Holy Light. ”

Riotus certainly knew Joshua Depan, a blacksmith of the Scarlet Crusade who had repaired his armor two months earlier.

Loria recounted that she had discovered the location of the Empire and Skyrim Province from an ancient map in the Church's collection, and led a group of paladins and priests to spread the gospel of the Light.

The Count's old butler listened attentively, and when he heard about Loria's apocryphal adventures, he sighed and saddened...... Riotus felt that after today, he would definitely have a few more wrinkles.

"Due to the difficulty of the journey, we dare not take the liberty of disturbing His Excellency the Earl, who have not yet finished our rest. Loria continued, "If you are fortunate enough to have the support of Your Excellency the Count, the Church of the Light will definitely take this kindness to heart. ”

"It's not something for me to decide. The old man said with a smile, glancing at Otus as if he had casually asked, "But my son, who admires the paladins of your church very much, I wonder if ordinary people can learn to become one of them?"

"Of course. "You may have heard that a devout Nord has been inspired by the Light to become a junior priest," said Loria. ”

The old man's smile became brighter, and he said sincerely, "Your Excellency Earl wants to entertain you, please enjoy it...... I will endeavour to bring about the talks, and I am confident that His Excellency will give your full support to your church. ”

The rest of the conversation was all chit-chat about the customs and the weather.

……

That was the end of the talks.

This was the best and most boring scenario Loria could have imagined - both sides had their own desires. The Scarlet Crusaders need official missionary permission and human and financial support within the county, while the Earls of Snowman, caught between the Empire and the rebels, need strong force to ensure their independence.

What we have to consider now is probably how to gain more benefits in the next detailed negotiations.

The Earl's butler refused Loria's offer and decided to rush back to the city to report to the Earl, and before leaving, he asked Loria to send an envoy to meet the Earl.

Clement struggled to get out of her role as the head of the Church of Light, so Loria decided to appoint Leotus, who seemed to be the most reliable, as her emissary.

"Remember what I said?" asked Loria.

"More faces, less talking, no trace of outfit c, show the power of the paladin. Riotus' voice sounded like a toothache.

"Who are you?"

"Riotus, a minor lord under the command of Duke Mograini. ”

"Who am I?"

"Loria H. Mograini, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Mograini, who made her fortune from the internal connections of the Church of the Light. ”1

"Who are we?"

"The nobility of the Church of the Light, pious and peace-loving, is keen to spread the Gospel of the Light, ostensibly in response to the Archbishop's call, but in fact the real purpose is to gain prestige and domestic power. ”

"Where is the kingdom of Lordaeron?"

"Where their map is blank. ”

"What is the situation in the kingdom of Lordaeron?"

"Rich and powerful, it has enough deterrence, but because of the long distance, it is unlikely that there will be a large-scale invasion of Skyrim Province. ”

"Very good, last question, why are you talking to me with a visor?"

"Miss, I'm cheek-pumping. ”

……

In the evening, Alice and Ahri returned to the Crusader garrison in a dirty state, having recently been fond of playing with each other in the forest, which Loria dismissed as child's play.

It's just that whenever she is not looking, Alice will pull the fur on Ahri's back hard, and the big fox will turn around and bite Alice's head......

"Is this an octopus?" asked Loria, who had eaten some kind of chewy, tough, tentacle-like ingredient at dinner.

"Ahri brought it back in the evening. Kana, who was in charge of cooking, replied, "Probably some kind of specialty that Azeroth doesn't have, and because there are not many of them, they are only made for you." ”

"It tastes good. Loria picked up the indescribable thing that looked like an octopus's tentacles, and after a moment's hesitation, continued to eat.

Alice, who was sitting in the distance, holding a small spoon, stared at Loria with a subtle expression for a while, and muttered in a strange tone, "Does Alice taste good?"
