Chapter 1885: Big Event
That night, a jaw-dropping piece of news shocked the continent. Pope Melder of the Dark Church. Fisk. Rutledge was assassinated by unknown persons in the room of the Dark Church headquarters, and more than ten Assassins infiltrated the Dark Church by unknown means, and then launched a surprise attack on Pope Rutledge, resulting in the death of three high-ranking members of the Holy See, including Pope Rutledge, and several guards.
Most of the mainland residents received this news when it was already the morning of the next day, and everyone was stunned by this news, they didn't expect that the Pope of the Dark Church would be assassinated, not that the Dark Church has tens of thousands of dark knights, what are they doing. Of course, the believers of the Dark Church have collapsed, and it is like the sky is falling for them.
Of course, this matter must be thoroughly investigated, most of the dozen or so assassins who came were surrounded by the knights of the Dark Knights who arrived later, but they didn't catch them alive, a few of them took advantage of the chaos to escape, and the few who were caught saw that they couldn't run away and chose to commit suicide directly, and they were completely dead.
It stands to reason that the security measures at the headquarters of the Dark Church should be very complete, how did these assassins get in? Everyone didn't understand it, all they knew was that these assassins were wearing the armor of the Dark Knights, and they looked like they were from the Dark Knights, but no one seemed to be able to recognize what kind of squad they were.
"Somebody must have put them in." This is what everyone thinks, and if there is no internal response, the possibility of trying to get these people in is too small. Is there an internal response in the Church of Darkness? Everyone looked at each other.
Neiying still can't find it for the time being, and everyone will definitely not admit it, who will carry this pot. However, everyone seems to have the same guess about the mastermind of this matter, that is, Li Huailin.
Yes, the timing of Pope Ratledge's death is simply too bizarre. It happened that Li Huailin proposed supervision here, and then the two sides just discussed the functions and powers of the regulatory authority, of course, the discussion was also very intense at that time, and then at night Pope Ratledge died directly, which is too coincidental, no matter who thought about it for the first time, Li Huailin did it.
But that's what I think. But there is no evidence, no live mouth was caught at all, and there is no direct evidence that these assassins were sent by Li Huailin. And now the dark church is also a little blind, because the pope died suddenly and there is no leader, of course, the situation is a bit chaotic.
"NO, WE HAVE TO SETTLE ACCOUNTS WITH THE MAINLAND ZHENG MANSION, THIS IS DEFINITELY WHAT THEY DID, IN ORDER TO COMPLETELY CONTROL OUR CHURCH." Emergency meeting. A church elder said excitedly.
"Settle accounts with them, are you ready to go to war with them directly?" Immediately, other elders next to him said mockingly, "I said before, according to our current strength, how can we fight with others." ”
"Is that all there is to the Pope? If he can assassinate the Pope today, he can assassinate us tomorrow, so should we wait here for death, or will we obey him? ”
Originally, there were still a lot of people from the Dark Church who tended to lean on Li Huailin's side, but they didn't dare to say it directly now. After all, the popes here are all dead, can they still say that they want to lean on Li Huailin's side at this time? It is true that they are afraid of death and are afraid of losing their current status, but they also want to be faced, so they are also very entangled at present.
And at this cusp, when all the upper echelons of the dark church were in chaos, Li Huailin did another thing that they couldn't accept. That is, Li Huailin actually sent someone to attend the emergency meeting here.
Naturally, the person sent was Geert. After receiving Li Huailin's order yesterday, Geert here naturally stayed here, waiting for Geert to come directly to the meeting early the next morning, and the reason is of course very good, the two sides have already negotiated yesterday, and it is determined that a regulatory agency will be established. IN THIS CASE, THE MAINLAND ZHENG MANSION NATURALLY HAS THE RIGHT TO COME TO THE MEETING, AND YOU CAN'T JUST TEAR UP THE CONTRACT JUST BECAUSE POPE RATLEDGE IS DEAD.
OF COURSE, IT MAKES SENSE, BUT ALL THE HIGH-LEVEL OFFICIALS OF THE DARK CHURCH WERE STUNNED, THIS CONTINENT ZHENG MANSION IS TOO SHAMELESS, IT'S OBVIOUS THAT POPE RATLEDGE WAS ASSASSINATED BY YOU, AND NOW YOU ARE STILL SWAGGERING TO ATTEND THE MEETING? Can you not be so shameless?
OF COURSE, ALTHOUGH HE SAID THIS, THERE WAS REALLY NO WAY TO STOP GERT, AND HE SAID BEFORE THAT EVERYONE THOUGHT THAT LI HUAILIN DID THIS, BUT THERE IS NO EVIDENCE, EVEN IF YOU SAY THAT THE MAINLAND ZHENG MANSION IS THE MURDERER, PEOPLE DIRECTLY DENY IT, AND ASK RHETORICALLY, "WHAT ABOUT THE EVIDENCE?" "You're speechless. And the treaty was indeed signed by Pope Rutledge yesterday, and people do have the right to attend the high-level meeting (at present, only the right to observe, and there is no right to vote), so there is no way to stop people from coming.
Under the complicated eyes of a group of high-ranking officials of the Dark Church, Gelt slowly walked into the conference room, looked at the people with different expressions here, Gelt smiled: "First of all, on behalf of the mainland Zheng Mansion, I would like to express my deep condolences for the tragedy that happened to your sect, and Pope Ratledge is also one of the people I respect, I didn't expect to encounter this kind of misfortune, these assassins are really hateful." ”
"How dare you ......" An excited elder on this side wanted to stand up and roar at Gert, but immediately Bishop Serrod next to him grabbed the other party.
"Elder Celloch, calm down." Bishop Selrod bowed his head to the agitated elder and said, "We don't have any evidence at the moment, and it's useless to say anything now. ”
"Damn!" Of course, Celloche also knew that this was the case, and waved his hand directly, "We must find evidence." ”
The people around also saw this scene, but many people shook their heads secretly, even if you can find evidence, what if you can't beat people, even if you find evidence, what can you do with people? BESIDES, IN THE CASE OF THE MAINLAND'S ZHENG MANSION, EVEN IF YOU COME UP WITH EVIDENCE TO PROVE THAT LI HUAILIN FOUND SOMEONE TO KILL POPE RATLEDGE, AND PEOPLE DON'T ADMIT IT, WHO WILL THE PEOPLE ON THE MAINLAND BELIEVE?
Yes, a lot of people have calmed down at this point, and they are all thinking about the intentions of Gelt's side and what they should do after that. THE MAINLAND ZHENG MANSION IS RUTHLESS THIS TIME, AND IT FEELS LIKE A FINAL ULTIMATUM.
"Then let's go on." Geert casually found a chair next to him and sat down quietly, and said to everyone.
The scene was silent, everyone was looking at Gelt, who was still in a meeting at this time, it was impossible to continue the meeting, okay.
"Huh? What's wrong with all of you? GERT ASKED STRANGELY, "IT'S NOT THAT OUR MAINLAND ZHENG MANSION ONLY HAS THE RIGHT TO LISTEN NOW, SO LET'S LISTEN TO WHAT YOU SAY, DON'T WORRY ABOUT ME, YOU CONTINUE THE PREVIOUS TOPIC." ”
EVERYONE LOOKED LEFT AND RIGHT, AND CONTINUED THE PREVIOUS TOPIC, THE PREVIOUS TOPIC WAS TO DISCUSS WHETHER THEY SHOULD DIRECTLY TURN AGAINST THE MAINLAND ZHENG MANSION, AND FIND OUT THE EVIDENCE OF THE MAINLAND ZHENG MANSION'S MURDER OF POPE RATLICH, NOW THAT YOU ARE HERE, HOW CAN THEY CONTINUE TO DISCUSS.
"I think you should have discussed the issue of the new pope before, after all, this is the first priority now." What I didn't expect was that Geert suddenly interjected.
"New Pope!" Everyone was shocked, yes, they immediately understood what Geert meant, the other party's target was the new pope, after all, there was already such an example on the side of the Church of Light before, this is to prepare for their own people to become the new pope?
"Now is not the time to discuss the new pope." Celloche couldn't help but stand up and said to Geert, "The Pope's bones are not cold, and the mastermind has not been caught, how can we discuss the matter of the new Pope now." ”
"Huh? Didn't I hear that the assassins were from the Dark Knights, how could there be a mastermind, and who was the mastermind? Geert asked.
"You!" The Seloch here pointed at Geert and was speechless, and he really wanted to say "It's you" but Serrod next to him pulled Seloch down again, "Elder Seloch, don't say it." ”
"I think the new pope is more important." Geert ignored Seloch and continued to say to everyone, "Even if you say that you want to catch any mastermind, you must first elect a pope before you can arrange and command the entire church, otherwise how can you catch people in such chaos." ”
The scene was quiet again, yes, everyone didn't know what to say, and no one dared to express their attitude right now. NOW SUPPORTING GERT'S SIDE IS APOSTASY, WHICH IS A BIT MISERABLE, BUT OPPOSING GERT IS TO OFFEND THE MAINLAND'S ZHENG MANSION, AND THEY MAY ALL BE CO-OPTED IN THE FUTURE, AND NOW OFFENDING THE MAINLAND'S ZHENG MANSION MAY BE LOOKING FOR DEATH. So in the current situation, no one dares to take a position immediately.
"What's wrong with you, am I not right?" Geert looked around and asked, "Then according to the information we have received now, the most suitable person for the dark church to take over the position of pope at present should be the black-robed bishop Rogamp, right, I have heard many people say that Bishop Rogamp has the support of most of the congregation, and I also think Bishop Rogamp is good." ”
"Rogamp?" Everyone's eyes turned to Bishop Rogamp who was sitting next to him, everyone knew that the next pope would really be Bishop Serrode, why did it come to your side? Could it be ......
Yes, most people have understood, this Luo Ganpu must be someone who has connections with the mainland ZHENG Mansion, otherwise how can people support you? Could it be ...... Should it be you? The Pope's death has something to do with you, too?
Under the gaze of a large number of people, Luo Ganpu here is like sitting on pins and needles. (To be continued.) )
