29. Decisions
Late at night, the headquarters of the Hammer Chamber of Commerce, the president's office. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Malibu looked at the secret letter sent by the city lord Watt through a special channel, the text on the quick letter, and his brow furrowed.
President, Polsa is here. The secretary reported.
Let him in! At the hearing of Polsa's name, Marib's frown immediately widened.
President. Polsa walked into the room.
The secretary knew that what they were going to talk about was not something he could know, so he closed the door and told the others to step back.
Polsa, I heard you've been in retreat lately? How's that, what's the catch? Malibu asked with concern.
I broke through, and now I have successfully advanced to the rank eight magician. Polsa sat down, he didn't expect that as soon as he exchanged magic with Lawson, he would be inspired by Lawson's point of view and solve the problem that had plagued him for a long time, Polsa replied with a pair of glasses.
That's good news! But I'm in big trouble right now, you see. Malibu handed the secret letter to Polsa.
After Polsa read it, he put down the secret letter in his hand and said to Malibu with a smile: Don't worry, things have developed as I expected, and our city lord Watt has decided to join the Dark Holy See.
The city lord asked us to secretly deliver a batch of strategic materials to the berserker thieves, what do you think of this incident? Malibu took the secret letter and read it again, and although he could see that something was wrong, he did not see any clue about Watt's decision to join the Dark See.
I used to wonder why Annai Castle didn't send an army to encircle and suppress the largest and most notorious bandit group in the vicinity, the Berserker Thieves Bandit, but now the city lord is telling us plainly that this bandit group was secretly cultivated by him, and the purpose is to help him do something that Annai City can't do. A gleam flashed in Polsa's eyes, and he continued: "Now, the city lord has given us two choices, whether to follow him to the Dark Sect, or to tell the Light Sect this news, he is forcing us to choose a side to take refuge!"
Malibu was silent, pondering which side would be better.
Polsa was in no hurry, he waited patiently for Malibu to make a decision.
Your opinion? Malibu had a plan in mind, but he also wanted to hear Polsa's opinion.
Personally, I'm more inclined to the Dark Church. Polsa replied.
Why?
The Holy See of Light has just been elected by the Pope, and Paul II has been successfully promoted from Cardinal to Pope, and his ascension is obviously the indulgence of the ascetics, and the Knights Templar are behind the scenes, so Paul II became the Pope, and most of the dogmas issued were in favor of the Knights.
It's a pity that he was in too much of a hurry! Even we all know that ascetics are the most elite power of the Holy See of Light, but Paul II not only did not befriend the ascetics, but also ignored the priests, how long can he be pope if he does this?
Malibu gloated and said: It's not that Paul II doesn't want to, it's that others don't want him.
Oh, I see, in this case, the Holy See of Light is fighting among itself, no wonder the Lord of the City would choose the Holy See of Darkness. Polsa always felt that something was wrong.
I really don't know why the ascetics let it go, and why the madmen of the Knights Templar chose Paul II as pope. Malibu shook his head and sighed.
Indulge? A flash of inspiration flashed in Polsa's mind, and he was surprised: Wrong, we all thought wrong, the Holy See of Light is not infighting! This is a conspiracy set up by the Holy See of Light against the city of Annai!
How so? Malibu frowned and asked seriously, this is a matter of life and death for the Hammer Chamber of Commerce!
For a long time, the Annai family has always maintained neutrality between the Light and the Dark See, and has maintained simple cooperation between both of them, which is understandable, and the two Churches have also acquiesced in the actions of the Annai family, but now it seems that for some reason, the Bright Church has lost patience, and they have decided to solve the Annai family at once.
What does that have to do with the Holy See of Light pretending to be infighting?
If the Holy See of Light doesn't put on a pretense that we are all busy fighting for power and profit, and we can't control your Annai City, the city lord will not consider completely falling to the Dark Sect, and the reason why they do this is to dispel the opposition, because not everyone in the Bright Sect wants to destroy the Annai family. Polsa smiled bitterly.
Are they so sure that they will destroy the Annai family with the protection of the Dark Holy See?
If my conjecture is correct, the Holy See of Light is already preparing for war, and the Holy See of Darkness has long known about this conspiracy against the Annai family! And we little people are just pawns in the game between the two Holy Sees. Polsa said helplessly.
So what do we do? Malibu didn't know what to do for a while.
Take refuge in the Dark Holy See, the two Holy Sees must have reached some kind of consensus, for our Chamber of Commerce, it is better to choose the Dark Holy See, the water of the Holy See of Light is too deep. Polsa rubbed his head.
Okay, this time, I will stake the Hammer Chamber of Commerce on the Dark Sect, I only hope that the Dark Sect will be stronger. Malibu is also helpless, but unfortunately the Hammer Chamber of Commerce has too little background, so he can only gamble on luck.
It's still early, the time to start the war is at least after the orc invasion, and what the Holy See wants is not land, but faith! When the time comes, the Holy See of Light will first frame the Annai family, and then put on a savior appearance, which is the favorite method of those religious madmen. Polsa's face was ugly, and this feeling of knowing the enemy's strategy but being helpless was very uncomfortable.
Shall we tell the lord of the castle? With this decision, Malibu reverted to being the calm and decisive president of the Hammer Chamber of Commerce.
No, the Annai family is dead this time, the two Holy Sees will not let Annai City continue to be in the hands of the Annai family, the entire family will be wiped out for sure, and our Iron Hammer Chamber of Commerce is different, we can completely fall to the Dark Sect, they will welcome our Chamber of Commerce, now just make a wholehearted effort for the Dark Sect!
Then it was decided, and when it was dawn, I would order the people below to dispose of the assets of the Hammer Chamber of Commerce in Annai City as soon as possible, and let some of them transfer to the territory of the Dark Holy See first. Malibu has shown his vigor as president of the Hammer Chamber of Commerce.
Okay, I'll be handed over to the escort mission this time, and I always feel that this time it's not just about sending a little supplies. Polsa thought for a moment and said.
No problem, but just to be on the safe side, I'll let the Second Escort follow you.
No, as soon as they set out, everyone knew that there was a problem with the delivery of materials this time, so they let Adley and Chris be responsible for this transportation according to the ordinary arrangement, and I followed them in disguise.
Since you've decided, let it be, remember, be careful, and retreat as soon as there is danger. Malibu instructed.
Good president. Polsa replied.
At the same time, the Holy Land of the Holy See of Light, the Council of Light.
This room has a capacity of 3,000 people, but there are only fifteen seats here.
On the round table, on the throne is Pope of Light, Paul II! At first glance, it looks like an ordinary middle-aged man.
To the left of the Pope sat an old man with a long beard, who was the current leader of the ascetics, Qingfeng, on the right was the head of the Knights Templar in silver-white armor, Ganke, and on the remaining twelve seats sat the twelve cardinal archbishops of the Holy See of Light, so to speak, the people in this room were the highest level of the Holy See of Light!
Paul II spoke: "This time our bet with the Dark See will not allow us to fail.
Qingfeng said lightly: The adults are very concerned about this bet.
Gank shouted loudly: If anyone drags his feet this time, Lao Tzu will cut him!
