Chapter Ninety-Three: Conspiracy

The Pope sat in the small meeting, looked at the person standing in front of him with slightly squinted eyes, and said slowly: "The Crimson Moon is coming, how is the progress on the mercenary empire's side?" ”

"Your Majesty, the mercenary empire is still a mess, and this group of unbelievers is very reluctant to the aid of the Temple of Light, but we are ready to take the opportunity to intervene when the demonic beasts riot, promote the teachings of the Temple of Light, and cooperate with the lurking dark thunder to buy people's hearts."

The Pope looked at the cardinal with some disappointment, turned to look at Howell, and said, "What do you think?" ”

"Your Majesty, the mercenary empire is mixed, and the forces of all parties are intertwined, and it is difficult to conquer it at one time. Since the mercenary empire implements a mercenary system, we might as well establish a small mercenary group in the name of the temple and make a name for itself there, which will not attract rejection, but also subtly change the opinion of these outlaws on the temple of light. ”

"Not bad." The Pope nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "The mercenary empire, the so-called royal family is just a tax collector, and the real power is the trade union organization of the mercenary empire." We can't send the backbone, then there will be a suspicion of forcibly interfering in the internal affairs of other countries, so select a group of rookies from the Temple of Light to preach the teachings, no matter from any angle, the mercenary empire has no reason to object. ”

"Your Majesty is wise."

"By the way, Howell, last time you said that there was a probationary knight with a dark constitution who wanted to baptize the light, can you contact others?" The Pope asked suddenly.

"Yes, we have agreed to have a baptism of light tomorrow, and since my student Grief has promised him, we cannot be untrustworthy. However, I hope that Archmage Anne and my father Andrew will assist me, after all, no one with a dark constitution has ever been baptized by the light, and I am not completely sure. ”

"Andrew, I'll leave this matter to you. You have been lurking in the Dark Temple for the longest time, and you have also made an indelible contribution to the victory of the decisive battle of the Temple of Light. People with a dark constitution don't necessarily believe in darkness, try to win him over and see if you can make him a dark sanctuary, and you just have a right-hand man. ”

Andrew looked at the Pope in some surprise and hesitated: "But, Your Majesty, we still don't know his origin yet, isn't it a bit hasty to do this?" ”

"Nope." The Pope smiled slightly and said, "Before he becomes your right-hand man, first of all, he will become the Judgment Blade hidden in the darkness of the Temple of Light, and it is up to him whether he can pass the test or not." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Andrew was convinced.

"Crewe, is there any movement on the side of Alexander's kingdom?" The Pope looked again at the cardinal who had been questioned first.

"Your Majesty, King Alexander, is already a puppet of the Temple of Light, and the whole country only obeys the oracle of the Temple of Light, please rest assured. It's just that Prince Alexander, who has just completed the coming-of-age ceremony, will be eighteen years old in two years and can become the crown prince, should we arrange it in advance? ”

"Put an eyeliner around him, and any detail will make or break it. Crewe, you have done a very good job in this matter, you are good at scheming, you can put aside the affairs of the mercenary empire, and leave it to Howell to preside, and you will take over the teaching affairs of the Kingdom of Alexander. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Crewe was overjoyed, although he and Howell swapped places, but this was a promotion in disguise! Compared with the chaotic mercenary empire, under the continuous infiltration of the Temple of Light, the power of the Temple of Light has become pervasive in the Kingdom of Alexandria.

"Annie, what do you think of the dragons?" The Pope suddenly asked such a question without a clue.

Anne took a step forward and said without humility or arrogance: "The Dragon King is not as simple as imagined. On the surface, the Dragon King is eager to recover the bloodline of the Dragon Clan, but in fact, I feel that the Dragon Clan, like us, wants to use the power of the demon for their own use. I don't believe that Louis, who inherited the throne of the dragon king so easily, would so easily give up the throne to his brother's heir. ”

"It's exactly what I thought." The Pope nodded with satisfaction and asked, "How credible is that goblin knight's words?" ”

"There is no credibility at all." Anne shook her head decisively.

"Then how much do you think the Dragon King will believe it?"

"Then it depends on what his purpose is." Anne frowned and thought for a moment and said, "I feel that the Dragon King is more like he needs a reasonable excuse. ”

"Let out the news, the Temple of Light will make every effort to arrest the real culprit who murdered the son of the Golden Dragon King, Sophie Fakeu, and those who are arrested can have the qualifications of dragon knights." The Pope's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for talking too much." Amanda couldn't bear to say, "But hasn't hip-hop deceived the Dragon King perfectly?" Sophie is now a dragon girl with dragon blood. ”

"Amanda, as a paladin, the interests of the Temple of Light are above all else, have you forgotten your faith?"

Although the Pope's tone was gentle, Amanda shuddered when she heard it, and Amanda hurriedly and solemnly touched her chest with her right hand and replied, "Your subordinates don't dare." ”

"No, I didn't blame you. Annie, together with Amanda, you ostensibly cooperate with the dragon clan to find Sophie, once you get the exact news, you will do whatever it takes to bring her and the demon dragon back, and the power of the devil must not fall into the hands of others. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Anne and Amanda hurriedly bowed.

"Try to drag that goblin knight and the wandering mage into the water together, because only a few of you are insiders, and the truth can't be leaked."

"But, Your Majesty, will the dragons agree? Hasn't Hip Hop been promised to become a Dragon Knight by the Dragon King? Anne was a little confused.

"Hahaha......" the Pope laughed loudly, "You don't know the Dragon King too well, how can the proud dragon clan allow a goblin dragon knight to appear?" This is the biggest insult to the dragon clan, so the dragon clan will never come out to clarify this matter. The reason why I asked you to release the news is because the entire Divine Heaven heard the golden dragon's desperate oath before his death. If the Dragon King knew that the Divine Heaven was going all out to arrest Sophie, I am afraid that it would be too late to be happy, how could he come out to obstruct it? Because, in this way, it is equivalent to the Divine Heaven completely isolating Sophie to the opposite side, so that the dragon clan can feel at ease, and there will be more opportunities to win over and abduct Sophie. ”

"What if...... I mean if. Amanda said with some hesitation: "What if Sophie is really an undead creature?" ”

"Kill." There was not a hint of warmth in the Pope's tone.

"Aren't you afraid that she will take refuge in the Dark Temple?" Anne felt that the Pope was too confident.

"The Lich is the backbone of the Dark Temple, although it represents the power that supports the Dark Goddess. And Sophie has a baby dragon, and this alone is inseparable from the death of the lich. What's more, demonic power would definitely not be welcomed by the Dark Temple. With the disappearance of the Dark Goddess and the Dark Temple's secession and self-proclaimed king, who would want to be swayed again? ”
