Chapter 55: The Cathedral of the Blue Harbor
Not to mention the Fat Pig Governor who confronted Victor, even from a short distance, the passers-by who sneaked up on the excitement were trembling, and although their behavior was full of a kind of brutality that a priesthood would hardly have, but in addition to fear, a desire to applaud and laugh rose from their hearts.
This dead fat pig was originally just an ordinary border count of the Samarani Empire, and even because of his poor management in the territory and the fish and meat country, his status in the empire became more and more low, and even some young and capable viscounts and barons looked down on him for a time.
However, the Sea Clan, who happened to encounter the Maelstrom, allied themselves with the Samarani Empire and asked the Empire to help manage the Turquoise Harbor.
Their original intention was to hope that the Samarani Empire would contribute one or a group of excellent management talents, but the Samaranyan Empire almost lost its joy when it heard this request.
The territory of the Border Earls is very large, and this title is between the Marquis and the Earl, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds to take that huge territory out of the hands of a waste Border Count and give it to the new viscounts?
The emperor of the Samarani Empire immediately slapped his thigh and it was decided.
Then under the pressure of the emperor's strong authority, the Count of the Frontier could only pat his ass and take office.
Although he is just a partner, taking the money to send here to make room for the Empire, and he is only in the name of a governor in the blue port, the real manager is not him, but the management team sent by the Empire.
The father and son never thought about learning a lesson, what it turned out to be, what it was like when they came to the blue port, except that the empire had given a death order and must not provoke the Sea Clan, in fact, they didn't want him to do something good.
Letting the blue port have a guy that everyone hates, it is also conducive to uniting the people by empathy
Even the Samarani Empire hopes that there will be a strong man who is not afraid of power and will send this fat pig away directly and happily, and when the time comes, the empire will definitely not blame this strong man, but will find a way to find this fierce man and thank him well.
Do you think that moths only make people suffer?
And Victor is probably the "exterminator" that the empire hopes to appear.
"Evil, demon!" Only the Fat Pig Earl of the Bronze Sixth Order didn't even care about his own son, and kept retreating, his heart that was broken by passively giving up his fiefdom was already fragile, and his domineering and absurd arrogance were just to hide his vulnerability, and his mind was blank, and there was only one thought left.
Escape!
Victor touched his face, was he really so scary?
If these guards can hear Victor's heart, then they will definitely tell him loudly!
Yes! Yes!
Whoever has experienced a gentle and elegant Holy Light Professional, he has turned his face into a ruthless Holy Light Demon.
Lord, this light also makes people feel holy and warm!
This would be fine in normal times, but in this situation, it's just creepy.
At the same time, they also looked at this fat pig who had been frightened to collapse with contempt and disgust, although it was frightening enough, but it would not collapse directly, right?
Originally, they were only protecting the personal safety of the father and son at a minimum, but now they all want to directly stab this fat pig to death with their swords! And his stupid and lustful son, the looming powerhouse on the dark elf's body that he can't even find out?
Is it that you can't find it, or is it because you're so stupid that you don't even know what it's to be afraid?
Victor stepped forward, tugged at his collar with some difficulty, and dragged the fat pig to his son.
"Ah, what do you eat, how do you get so much fat as a person? Don't tell me that you were born, look at your son, the whole person is not as thick as your legs. Victor rubbed his hand on his body in disgust, and then looked up at the guards, "Aren't you the governor's guards?
In Victor's opinion, the governor's guards are naturally the armed forces in his hands, so the family relies on this regular army for a large part of their crimes, in addition to being rich and powerful.
So, naturally, there is no good tone for them.
"This honorable ...... Priests, we do not obey Him, but are asked to save His life at a critical moment. The leading knight of the guard saluted Victor with a thump on his chest, and then said without humility or arrogance, "He is nothing but an outcast of the Empire, and one day he will pay the price for his greedy, filthy, and stupid ways, which the Empire has long predicted." ”
"Oh? I'm curious when you say that, but you mean that he's just a nominal governor, and in fact a nobleman with no fief?"
"Do you think this kind of person can make the islands flourish so much?"
The leader of the guard asked rhetorically.
"Also, it seems that your emperor was still very prescient. Victor raised his eyebrows, he could clearly see the perseverance and fearlessness of this group of guards, it seemed that he did not do anything to help the abuse, but only carried out this order from the emperor at a minimum, "Then you take him away, so that these two cubs will not be able to do anything, and it can be regarded as saving you trouble in the future." ”
"Thank you, my lord, he should never be seen on this beautiful archipelago again. The leader of the guard beat his chest again and saluted, "Although from my personal standpoint, I hope that you can ...... directly."
The last half of the sentence was swallowed back directly, but the meaning was already very obvious.
"God says that all sins are forgivable. ”
Victor frowned, because when he heard this, he only sensed four or five people with holy light.
And when he looked back, he saw a huge procession, made up of hundreds of clergy, led by a man dressed in the uniform of a regional bishop.
The belongings of this team are about to come out - the Holy See.
Victor frowned because compared to this number, the owners of the Holy Light were so few, and now it seemed that they were just a few minor priests.
More so because of the clergy who believe in the Lord of Light, they can use some of the most basic magic to induce the Light, but they do not have the power of the Light.
It's ridiculous to say that the Holy See, as the largest religion on the entire continent, has many people in the headquarters who have been in contact with the gods and epics of the Holy Light God system, and even the Lord of Light many times, but the headquarters has the smallest number of believers among all the churches.
It is not so much the center of the Holy See as it is the center of the Professions of the Light.
For the Holy City, the gods may be just a more powerful boss who believes in the Light itself.
But for churches everywhere, the gods were the only objects of worship for their followers.
"Who are you?"
"Dear fellow clergy, I am the Bishop of the Cathedral of Port Azure, Harmon Costa. The Earl had purchased indulgences issued by the Holy See, so for the sake of the Holy See, let him go. ”
Victor's eyes instantly turned cold, and at the same time, Angelica also frowned.
Indulgences?
Wasn't this speculative tool of wealth abolishing hundreds of years ago by the Holy See?
How could it reappear in such a place?
And looking at the looks of the passers-by around him, this seems to be something that he has become accustomed to.
"As far as I know, the Holy See has abolished the so-called 'indulgences' three hundred and seventy years ago, right?" Victor frowned and asked, while Angelica stood beside Victor at the moment, waiting for an explanation.
"That's right, dear compatriots, the indulgence was indeed abolished, but it was the indulgence that was used throughout the continent at the beginning, but we are different, this is the indulgence issued by the Samarani Empire in cooperation with all the cathedrals in the country, and it is only for the laws in the Samarani country, and the crimes that are sentenced to death by the law cannot be atonemented through the indulgence. ”
Harmon Costa laughed and said, as if what a glorious thing it was, "Isn't it worth it to commit a sin that does not lead to death, and then give the money of sin to the gods, and the gods will forgive their sinful souls?"
"A good deal?"
Victor was laughed at angrily, they actually used "cost-effective" to describe indulgences?
In those days, indulgences were all huge profits!
But this kind of windfall profit is obtained by stepping on the backbone and dignity of the victims!
"So, you're just doing your own thing, and it's not about the Holy See headquarters, right?"
"As a believer who is also bathed in the light of God, I believe that the headquarters will understand even if they knew. ”
After listening to this, Victor looked at Angelica.
"It's rotten. ”
"Well, it's completely rotten. ”
"Then I'll do whatever I want. Victor said to Angelica, "Anyway, this thing itself is a big mistake. ”
"It doesn't matter, anyway, this whole thing is not approved by the Holy See, but the cathedrals in these regions decide on their own. In this case, you can choose to shuffle these cathedrals directly. ”
Angelica's words were tantamount to giving Victor a reassurance.
dispelled the last bit of concern about "one's own people".
Because Angelica's words were telling him that after these people did these things, they were no longer their own people.
Victor moved his wrist, the ring flashed, and the familiar holy (plate) (brick) was held on his right hand again.
"Bishop Harmon, I do have an important notice about indulgences. ”
"Dear compatriots, but it doesn't hurt to say. ”
With a gentle smile, Victor walked up to Hamon......
A brick lifted up his face.
"Cub Seed! The Holy Curiosity established a new rule when the indulgences were abolished!"
"He's meowed!
"Fight to the death!"
