Viscount's Mansion in the city of Varna. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Outside the window, the sky was blue, but the doors and windows of Viscount Juan's study were closed, and only the oil lamps on the lampstand were constantly burning, emitting a dim glow. The light shone through the Viscount's body in the room a huge black shadow, the black shadow swayed with the rise and fall of the flames, like the body of a lurking giant beast rising and falling in the darkness.

Viscount Juan shook his head vigorously and said to Farindor, "No, it can't be reported to the church yet, at least not yet. ”

"Why?" Farindo asked, somewhat puzzled.

Viscount Juan, who had made the decision, breathed a long sigh of relief, and from the expression on his face, he looked at the subordinate in front of him, who had followed him since he was a child and had been loyal for twenty years, and after hesitating for a moment, he still said his inner thoughts: "Actually, the question is very simple, in the final analysis, is the existence of this false bishop a good thing or a bad thing for us?" ”

"Of course it's a bad thing." Falindo said: "If the church finds out that we are hiding it in the future, we will be provoking ourselves by doing so, master. ”

Viscount Juan shook his head disapprovingly, and said: "My father, the Marquis of Habs, once said to me that there are advantages and disadvantages in everything, and a qualified leader should learn to choose between the advantages and disadvantages and maximize the benefits as much as possible. I didn't understand what he said, but now I think I've figured out some of it. ”

Farindor quietly waited for Viscount Juan's next words, and the words that came out of the mouth of a big man like Marquis Habs, who could make the empire shake by stomping his feet, were not something that his status could comment on casually.

"On the surface, this false bishop seems to be a ticking time bomb, and the sooner you get rid of him, the better, but if you think about it, your presence isn't necessarily a bad thing." Viscount Juan seemed to be reasoning with Farindo, and seemed to be convincing himself: "First of all, this new bishop does not seem to be as extravagant and lustful as the previous Bishop Cunningham, at least in the past few days since he took office, I have not heard of a beautiful girl from a village being taken hostage into the church. You know, I've had enough of going to church again and again to bring out the girls who have been humiliated. ”

Viscount Juan spat fiercely: "This Cunningham is a mongrel at all, if it weren't for the imperial law, the lord has no right to judge people in the church, Lao Tzu would have chopped off his pig's head and kicked it as a ball!" ”

"But in the end, you brought down Bishop Cunningham." Farindo spoke with relief.

"Hmph, I've used most of the resources my family has given me to bring him down, and it's just to remove that lustful pig, and the guillotine should be Cunningham's destination!" Viscount Juan obviously disliked the former bishop of the diocese of Varna: "Don't forget that Cunningham is still behind all the gangs in this city!" ”

"But you've also banned all those gangsters." Farrindor said.

"Although the tumor has been cut off, the wound is not so easy to grow back in a day or two." Viscount Juan sighed and said, "My people can't stand another bishop like Cunningham anymore, do you understand?" ”

Farindo nodded knowingly.

"But that's not all the reason I made this decision." Viscount Juan pulled the topic back, took the paper with the portrait in his hand again, and said to Farindor: "In this piece of information, there is actually another very important piece of information. ”

"What's the message, master?" Falindo suddenly found that his brain was a little insufficient, and his admiration for the young master was a little more. The same piece of paper, if you look at it yourself, you can't see anything other than that the bishop is fake, but Viscount Juan can actually see one, two, three, four or five from above, this is the gap!

It seems that he really didn't follow the wrong person, and the young viscount in front of him will definitely grow into an important figure of the Blood Wolf Family in the future, Farindo thought secretly in his heart.

Viscount Juan was not a roundworm in Farindor's stomach, so of course he had no way of understanding the strange thoughts in his butler's mind, but continued with his words. I saw him put his finger on the right side of the two portraits and said, "The second important information lies in this portrait." ”

Viscount Juan's finger was pointing at the portrait of the Templar Darwin.

"Is there anything wrong with this portrait, master?" Farindo suddenly had the feeling that he was like an idiot in front of this young master.

"There's nothing wrong with this portrait, or there's no problem with the painting, the only problem is that he painted it too similarly." Viscount Juan said.

Falindor's brain was really not enough at this time, so the butler simply closed his mouth and quietly listened to his master solve his doubts step by step.

Viscount Juan stretched out his finger and tapped lightly on Darwin's portrait, and said to his butler: "Since this portrait is painted like this, it can only show that this temple warrior is indeed a person, and from our observations, he is not a fake in terms of appearance or strength." ”

"So here's the problem," Viscount Juan's fingers slammed the portrait on the desk, and let out a crisp low sound, "Why would an impostor have this Templar warrior who was supposed to be with the real bishop?" Or we can put it this way, why did the Templar warrior turn a blind eye to such a fact, knowing that the bishop he was following was a fake? ”

Viscount Juan continued to speak to himself: "So it seems to me that there are only two reasons for this Templar to do this, one is that the church leaders suddenly found that our new Blue Cardinal, Lord Antonidas, had some problems, so they decided to remove him and replace him with a new one. But if that were the case, then the new bishop would have been generous in using his real name without impersonating someone else, so this possibility is not valid. ”

"So there is only the second possibility," said Viscount Juan, "that is, this Templar named Darwin, who was caught by this false bishop, or rather the person behind the false bishop!" ”

"The man behind it?" Farindo couldn't help but interject and ask.

"That's right, the man behind it." Viscount Juan said with a smile: "From the intelligence point of view, the unknown Allah is a full-level five-level strength magician, plus a fifth-level temple warrior, you won't be naïve to think that our mediocre fake bishop can win such a combination, so of course there will be people behind the fake bishop behind the scenes." ”

Falindo nodded and said yes, Leo's strength he had seen in the battle in the alley, and such a humble strength should definitely not be what a fifth-level magician should have. But the butler quickly remembered another question: "I have heard that the Templars are fanatical followers of chivalry, and if this Templar Darwin does this, he will not betray the chivalry that he has always adopted as his creed in life?" ”

"Chivalry?" Viscount Juan sneered and said, "Dear Farindor, in the face of the choice of life and death, the so-called chivalry is not worth mentioning at all. Not everyone can put life and death out of the way. ”

"In any case," Viscount Juan said, "at least judging from the battle against those heretics of the Dark Sect, this Templar has undoubtedly been taken in by the side of the false bishop, plus after so many days, there is still no trace or news of Allah - hehe, I dare say that our Lord Allah may have been pecked into a dry bone by the vultures." ”

"In general," Viscount Juan concluded, "since this false bishop and the people behind him dare to kill Allah of the church and replace him, and are able to subdue a fifth-level mid-level temple warrior for their own use, I dare to assert that at least one strong man with a high level of strength and even the Holy Domain is manipulating all this behind the scenes." Although our Blood Wolf Clan is not afraid of such forces, it is not smart to provoke the wrath of a strong man out of thin air. ”

"The master is wise." Farindor's admiration was palpable.

"But now that you know such important information, it's a bit unreasonable to do nothing." Viscount Juan rolled his eyes and stopped Farindo, who was about to walk out of the study: "You go and contact our secret line in the church, and ask him to pay more attention to this false bishop, and maybe he can observe something that will help us." ”

"Yes, master." Falindo bowed in response.
