"As a saint of the Church, I do have a good idea, but I am also a sorcery advisor to the United Kingdom, not to mention the king or my brother. So......" Feige shook his head, "I can't split myself in half and give you an idea with half of it." ”

"If you can't do it, forget it, I don't have a reason to embarrass you. Gresham slapped his knee hard and said, "Anyway, there's nothing to do on the Saddle Collar side for the time being, I'll spend it here, and then I'll send the next person when the church can't bear it anymore." Maybe it's a good thing not to see the king!"

Feige looked at Gresham, and then at Andrew, who was a dozen meters away. In fact, at this dinner party, Gresham only needs to walk over and greet him according to normal etiquette, and Andrew will definitely see him. Both of them were lords of the model lords, and they fought side by side, discussing the construction of roads and trade together, so it was natural that there was an old friendship. It's just that it's all embarrassing to be like this now.

"Who came up with this broken idea to go back to the Lighthouse Collar?"

"Broken ...... Well, you can really say about it. Gresham beckoned the passing waiter to bring some red wine, and it was clear that he needed to soothe himself. "After the Night of the Scarlet Meteor, the Church decided to carry out reforms, and the three Catholics still exist nominally, but they are combined into one internally, and are managed by a leaner staff. Since many bishops and archbishops had died before, there was already a shortage of manpower, so it was reasonable to merge them. ”

"The main goal of the merged Church, also known as the Core, is to repair and re-grow the Church as soon as possible, in other words, to rebuild, develop, and expand in order to deal with new enemies. Under this ideology, the procrastinating way of working was criticized, some bishops were deemed unfit for their original positions, and younger, more motivated pastors entered the Caucus. This has really improved the atmosphere of the church. ”

Feige shook his head, "Is it really improving?

"It's potatoes again. Did you know that you have a title out there that is the Potato Saint? I don't know? Well, it's just gossip here in the capital anyway. Let's talk about the church. When Gresham's wine arrived, he not only took the glass from the waiter, but also kept a whole bottle by the way. Gresham's eyes were a little red after he had drained the whole glass, and he continued.

"The church did recover and develop very quickly during this period as the ceremonies and rituals became more streamlined, a lot of money was spent on the construction of new small shrines, and more support from the faithful was drawn to rebuild. In the merit approval earlier this year, the core would include the most meritorious individuals, and then a new position, the archbishop, was proposed, and Don de Mip, bishop of the Sinai diocese of the Levi Empire, became the first to take the position. He has always been known for his vigorous and decisive style, believing that the church should act like a thunderbolt, and that only by making a loud roar and showing the greatest strength and toughness can people pay attention to and act according to the ideas of the church. So......"

Gresham poured another glass, and if Fech's hadn't taken his hand, he might have drunk it all again. He didn't need to say the rest of the words, Feige had already guessed: "So he asked you to show the toughest attitude, and he wanted to take the lighthouse collar back directly, right?"

"That's true. He received a lot of help from the top when he was in the Levi Empire, and the empire itself also has such a habit of dealing with the world, so everyone has psychological expectations. But whether it is Feinberg or Aria, the customs and habits here are different, how can they generalize......?

"Tough fart, I think he's a coward. Feige waved his hand, and Gresham's eyes widened in disbelief. "If you really want to be tough, you will directly bring troops to fight, and if I don't bomb him into scum, I will change my surname! Trying to take advantage of this kind of sudden and frightening surprise is just wasting deterrent power and exposing the weakness of one's own lack of strategic determination. If you are really powerful, what to do step by step, you have already thought about it in your heart, and then implement it step by step...... Forget it, why am I talking about this?"

Gresham frowned, he didn't care about drinking, and pondered Feige's words. "So, when you were in Minas Ihir, you didn't build castles but sold stones, planted potatoes and built roads, all of which were planned?"

"Don't panic when you have food in your hands, if you want to get rich, build roads first - those who can do these two sentences are already qualified managers, and they can at least be evaluated as a wise sage after death, right?"

"If you follow this standard, then Didlet should not be qualified. After you left, potato cultivation in Minas Ihir almost stopped for fear of not having enough purification capacity. If the weather goes well this year, it may not be a problem, otherwise the sudden increase in the immigrant population will be enough for her. Gresham shook his head: "I don't know what the elves are crazy about, their island has not been attacked by the blood-colored meteor, but they want to get out of there." Minas Ihir was now almost filled with elves. Those pointy-eared guys are planting trees everywhere, even in some fields. Alas......"

"Maybe that wasn't Didlet's idea, was it?, but I really don't know what's going on there, so I'm not going to draw conclusions for now. Feige patted Gresham on the shoulder: "Honestly, if you get nothing on your mission this time, will you be punished?"

"That's for sure. Now that the annual rating is very strict, almost to the point of harshness, how can there be no punishment? Maybe if I come to you again next year, it will not be as the lord of the saddle forest. That's fine, being a purer paladin isn't a bad thing. ”

"Don't be so scrappy, hope is always there. If you think about our conversation today, have you gained anything?"

"Harvest?" Gresham thought as he put down his glass and bottle completely, touching his chin and beard. It may be that the alcohol from before is still working, and he shook his head: "The biggest gain is that you should be recruited early, and don't let you go like Didlet." It's a bit too difficult, after all, your brother is the king, so you should be here to help. ”

"No, the real takeaway is that there is a solution to your current predicament, and I have already figured it out, but I can't say it because of my identity. Since I can figure it out, and you're not stupider than me, you should be able to figure it out. The way to accomplish the difficult task is not limited to completing it, and you know that the archbishop is just scaring people with the thunder first. Feige advised: "Drink less, think more, and I'll talk to Andrew about it too." Since there is a problem, you can't just ignore it, and the problem won't go away on its own. ”

"What you said makes a lot of sense, why didn't I find out before? Since you've said that, I'll go back and think about it now. Gresham stood up, empty-handed. "The wine here tastes very good, but it is a little top-notch, which affects the state. It seems that I really can't drink it again in the future, so that I can regain a mind that is more intelligent than you. Farewell, Feige, goodbye in your time. ”

Gresham turned and walked resolutely, and Feige did not go to see him off, so as not to appear mother-in-law. He knew that the meeting between the two men would be noticed, especially someone like the intelligence adviser Maxers, who "cared about current affairs." However, Feige made up his mind to ignore the political chaos of the aristocracy, and decided to keep his own style, so that he no longer cared about being watched and observed. Anyway, what Count Hall taught his son, this Feige didn't fully inherit, so it was easier to take a careless attitude.

Taking advantage of Gresham's absence, Feige hurriedly disposed of the sheep on the grill. There was a lack of the spices of the earth, salt and cinnamon alone would not satisfy Fitch, and the strange custom of not eating food under the soil had even banned garlic...... Feige was full of complaints and couldn't complain, so he could only silently eat a simple roast lamb with salt.

But such a simple thing can't be enjoyed by Feige. He suddenly felt a palpitation, like a premonition that something bad was about to happen. Feige immediately put down his plate and looked around, trying to determine where the feeling was coming from. Xia Ni had been keeping an eye on Feiqi, and she was alert at this time.

The surrounding guests were still in the warm atmosphere of the venue, completely unaware. But it was already strange when a beautiful woman walked past them, her long, waist-down pale blonde hair shining like a starry sky, and only a light black veil held in place by necklaces, bracelets, belts, and anklets, and no one paid attention to them. Fege immediately recognized the person as one of the Goddess's fragments: Flicker.

"Shani, stay out of the way, this guy ......"

"Guy, do you call a god with that attitude?" Flashing blinked, keeping a gentle pace, but could suddenly cross the distance and come to Fitch and Shanny. Her eyes were fixed on Feiqi, but she pointed at Shani, "Feiqi, do you think I'm a threat? Do you think I'm going to ruin such a beautiful thing?"

"I can't rule it out. Feige reached out and held Shani back. But Shani didn't want to leave Fitch alone with the flicker, whether it was useful or not, her snakehead was ready to lift the veil and launch a paralyzing stare.

"It's kind of sad to look like you're facing a great enemy. Flicker looked left and right, and said to Feiqi, "Come to think of it, the mortals here are so confused that they don't know I'm here." And isn't it a privilege for you to see the gods themselves? Don't do anything that makes a god sad, okay?"

"I try. Feige said that he was working hard, but his attitude did not change at all. "The Goddess of Twinkle is here, why do you have to do it?"

"You give me back the angel. ”

Feige shook his head. The angel has been drained of the divinity in his body, and has long since turned into a part of the energy of the soul gem, and all his personality, memories, and abilities no longer exist. It's an irreversible ritual, and Feige doesn't want to come and doesn't have the ability to restore the angel. "I don't have your angel in my hands, how can I pay you back?"

"I know you're a master of spatial spells, where did you teleport my angel? I know you didn't kill it, or some of the divine power would have returned—only by trapping her somewhere. Don't try to lie to me!"

"I'm not lying to you, I didn't trap the angel or teleport her somewhere (I just wiped her out completely). If you don't want to lose your divine powers, don't send angels here to make trouble!By the way, why don't you mention Al at all? Don't you care about your priest?"

When Al called for the angel to come, he had failed. His efforts during his lifetime have earned him a ticket to the kingdom of God, and he has already gotten what he wants, so why should I mention him?"

"Well, the gods' concerns are really irritating...... But you already have the kingdom of God?"

"It's just a prototype, and I need more divine power to expand it. It is for this reason that I want my angel. Flicker's eyes narrowed, which made Feige even more alarmed. "You're just a mortal, and you don't have the power to handle divine powers, so what the hell happened to my angel? You just told the truth, you didn't trap her, you didn't teleport her, but she clearly didn't defeat you...... What's going on?"

"You forgot to consider the possibility that the angel didn't want to pay attention to you and found a way to hide. Feige smiled and touched the teasing stick. The Magic Matrix is already working in the shadows, and a "Dutyless Plane Teleportation Spell" that can send him and Shani to Hell is being secretly prepared. In the event of a conflict, Flicker wouldn't dare chase her to hell with her true body, would Feige definitely take her directly to the devil's assembly camp in the bloody battle, so that she could feel the devil's army that thousands of demons could not defeat.

"My angel wouldn't do anything like that, and neither would she dare. In fact, she wouldn't have thought like that at all. ”

"Not necessarily. I know that some of the demons in Hell were created by the fall of angels. Who says angels don't change, do they?" Feige struggled to stall for time, and he began to consider whether he could teleport directly with the flickering himself, leaving Shani in the relative safety of the mortal world?

"You can tell by the look on your face that you're wondering what to do with me. But do you really think those magic spells of yours will work for a true god?" Flicker shook his head, "Feige, violence is useless. Today you have no choice but to cooperate. ”

"Isn't it okay to be nonviolent and not to cooperate?"

"It's not okay to blink. I was almost stunned by you, I should have asked you directly: how is my angel. Come on, I can see through your lies, so try to answer this question. ”

"Hehe, guess. Feige noticed that the goddess's lips were pursed, and it was clear that her emotions had reached a critical point. He was about to forcibly transport Shani to Hell, only to notice that Flicker suddenly looked away from him and into the crowd.

From that direction, a fat, big-eyed lady approached, using a cane with six green leaves to clear the way of the people, her big eyes full of smiles, and the people around her were equally unaware of her, and did not know why she had moved her position for no reason.

"Honey, you can't hit him, or you'll be in trouble. The other fragment of the goddess, Flare, always smiling, said in a gentle voice, "Then the calamity will not only destroy you completely, but also affect us, so I must come to warn you of this, and at the same time stop you." ”
