The streets outside the hotel were filled with horse-drawn carriages, roaring past as the men boarded them, and Lorenzo and the others were the last to set off, and unlike the Invig Orchestra, they had a direct service from North Drow.

"I'm ready to go, so I'll lay out a plan of action before I do that. ”

It wasn't until the operation was about to begin that Lorenzo said his plan of action, and several people stood in the streets, as if chatting.

"Hercule, you go to the docks to get ready for your business. ”

Lorenzo first said to Hercule, Hercule was so confident before, but Lorenzo was still a little skeptical about him, he didn't know if this guy would drop the chain at a critical moment, after all, everyone saw what he looked like on the boat before.

"Okay, I'll take it along the coast if necessary. ”

Hercule was confident.

Marury was a port city, and the docks occupied only a part of the coast, and the location of the theater square to the shore was their second plan, where the undeveloped coast, because of the reef covered with few people, Hercule would sail there to meet them if necessary, but at the cost of being close to the naval garrison and easy to notice.

"I just hope you don't vomit in the boat. ”

Lorenzo still didn't trust much, but he couldn't help it, the situation was far more complicated than he thought, and the existing manpower was simply not enough to solve the problem.

What's more, Hercule is not suitable for frontal combat, if he is allowed to pick up arms and fight, Eve can beat him ten, compared to these, this is the most suitable position for him.

"The next step is our division of labor, I'll exchange hostages with Hypard and Irene, Eve and Kestrels, and you'll be responsible for assassinating the Pope. ”

Lorenzo said to the others.

"Assassinate the Pope!"

Kestrel lowered its voice, looking incredulous.

"Just me and her? Look at me like this. ”

Kestrel straightened her chest as she spoke, revealing her bandaged arm.

After several fights between him and Erin, the old injuries have not healed and new injuries have been added, in fact, the kestrel is no longer too strong in combat, and like Erin, he can still move freely only with one hand.

"Can I?"

Eve was also a little skeptical of herself.

The assassination of the Pope is such a big thing, no matter how you think about it, Lorenzo should come in person, let yourself as an intern, and the half-crippled kestrel go, no matter how you think about it, you trust yourself too much.

"Lorenzo Holmes is only one person, and I can also exchange hostages before assassinating the Pope, but this time is too rushed, and it is full of surprises. ”

Lorenzo comforted Eve, and he knew that it was a bit too much pressure to leave her with such a thing.

"But your task is the easiest, I have already prepared the street lamp, and when the explosion will cause panic, and there are many believers in the enthronement ceremony, you can take advantage of this chaotic moment to carry out the assassination. ”

Eve was like a student, nodding her head as she listened to Lorenzo.

"After all, the Pope is just an ordinary person, he is not a demon, as long as such a large steel enters his brain, he will die. ”

Lorenzo raised his hand as he spoke, comparing the length of a finger, which was the length of a bullet.

"Mixed in with the crowd, when the explosion sounded, they fired at the Pope's head, this is a lacquered antimony throwing knife, if you miss, you can also use this thing to kill him, but this thing is very strong, and it may kill yourself. ”

Lorenzo said and handed Eve a few lacquered antimony throwing knives, because they were too dangerous, they had been carried by Lorenzo all the time, and this was the first time Eve had come into contact with this wonderful weapon.

"Now Eve is the main force, and the kestrel is the helper, if you can solve it perfectly, you will pass this internship with full marks. ”

Lorenzo pretended to be relaxed, and there was no need to put any pressure on him in this situation.

"It sounds like I'm the burden, I'm really sorry. ”

The kestrel held the damned triangle in its hand and struck the light pole on the side of the road from time to time.

"If you want to blame you for being a mortal, this is my mistake, many times I look at you on my own terms," Lorenzo tapped the kestrel on his arm, "For a witcher, this kind of injury may heal in a few minutes if the secret blood awakens, but for a mortal, you need to cultivate for at least half a month." ”

"And then it's us, Hybod, Irene, the three of us go to the Yega Theater, where the hostage exchange will begin. ”

Lorenzo said as he boarded the carriages that took them to different places.

"For the specific situation, go there and listen to my command. ”

"That's right! ”

Lorenzo suddenly stopped the people who were about to leave, and his eyes swept over their faces one by one.

"Remember, wherever you are, when you hear my voice, you must do what I tell you to do, understand?"

"Voice, we don't have a communicator here......"

The kestrel muttered a few words, but before he could finish speaking, his voice lowered.

He felt it, Lorenzo's gray-blue gaze was fixed on him, the guy in front of him was not joking, he was more serious than ever.

"Good...... Good. ”

Kestrel nodded, and the others understood, seeing that Lorenzo's cold face softened a little, and he got into the car, followed by Hypard and Irene.

The scorching sun had begun to fall, and the countdown to the start of the action had begun.

The carriage swayed slightly, and led several people to the different place.

......

The Yega Theater was already crowded, and many of the audience had arrived early, wandering around, occasionally looking at the theater square ahead.

In the theater square, there were more and more believers, and as time went on, more and more believers from the Evangelical Church came, and their words were full of insults, and in just a few minutes several clashes had broken out, but fortunately they were all stopped by the Mounties.

But beneath this calm, danger lurks.

The mounted officer took a deep breath, he had not been so tired for a long time, and he could see farther than the others on horseback, and he saw that the high platform in the theater square was full of Orthodox believers, and before long the Pope would step on the high platform, speak under the gaze of the faithful, and put on his crown.

He felt very uncomfortable, the mounted police were also a believer in the evangelical church, but due to the needs of his work, he was now here to maintain order, although the conflict was becoming more and more intense, and the war horse under his crotch had been blindfolded.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and more mounted police officers were transferred, although the current conflict was still under control, but no one knew whether it would turn into bloodshed when the ascension to the throne began.

"What's going on? Why are there so many people. ”

Another colleague rode up and cursed in a low voice.

"What's wrong?" asked the Mounties.

"Believers, whether they are Orthodox believers or evangelical believers, they are more and more, do we really have so many believers in Maruri?"

My colleagues were puzzled, and although the faith of the evangelical church was rooted in this land, Maruri, as a port city, had a lot of foot traffic, and the faith had declined a lot here.

But now, more and more believers appeared, as if all of a sudden, all of them had faith and came for their gods.

"This is not quite the direction given by the town hall, they didn't say that there would be so many people......"

My colleague was faintly worried.

Although the two were just mounted police, his instinctive vigilance made him feel that something was wrong, and that such a large-scale event was to be reported to the city hall, and after that, the mounted police were responsible for the order of the scene, but it was obvious that all this was starting to gradually deviate.

It's like...... It's as if someone is manipulating all this, and more and more people are getting in and out of it, in the name of believers.

No, no, no, it's not that bad, it's just a normal event.

He comforted himself in this way, but then the scolding rang out from the side.

"Heretics, get out of our land!"

At the edge of the theater square, the angry evangelical believers shouted, and they were directly fighting with the Orthodox believers on the periphery, seeing this, the mounted police directly blew the whistle and tried to stop the conflict, but before he could ride his horse, a hand suddenly grabbed him.

Looking back, there are one face after another full of fanaticism.

The cavalryman's heart was cold, he let go, the whistle fell, he wanted to shout something to his colleagues, but he only saw countless hands on the side like seaweed all over the body of the war horse, like a drowning person, his colleagues were also held down by countless people, covering their mouths, and could only see the frightened eyes through the gaps between their fingers, and then fell into the crowd and disappeared.

"No ......"

The mounted police wanted to say something, but he was dragged straight from his horse and disappeared into the middle of nowhere, and on the edge of the theater square, the clash continued and intensified.

......

"Now, everyone's emotions are mobilized. ”

Currie leaned against the window, looking down at the riots in Theater Square, fueled by the Iron Law Bureau, and the clash of faiths between the two sides would soon be at its maximum.

"Anger builds up little by little until a flashpoint detonates it all. ”

Currie felt the joy for the first time in a long time, and he felt that he was within reach of his dream, and turned to look at Lawrence.

"What do you think of all this?"

"It's great, it's perfect, it's funny, I can't imagine that a guy like you, who spits on faith, knows faith so deeply. ”

Lawrence walked over as he spoke, and looked down at the crowd with Currie.

Densely packed, like ant colonies, they are fighting for their sacred faith, but they don't know that the so-called faith is nothing more than a chip on their gambling table.

Uncover the façade of hypocrisy, and beneath it is nothing but a bloody filth.

"We need a great victory, for the Orthodox faith to spread like a tidal wave in Gaul-Nalori, it's a great ritual, have you figured out who to sacrifice?" asked Currie again.

Lawrence nodded, and he replied slowly.

"I have planned everything, the choir has been mixed with the faithful, today everything is under our control, and as for the sacrifice, I have also chosen, he will be the most suitable person, and his deeds will be recorded in the history of the Orthodox Church. ”

As they spoke, the two looked at each other and let out a shuddering laugh.

Outside, in the upper floor of the Yega Theater, the girls were still trying to make their voices, and in a moment they were about to sing a carol, and everyone seemed happy, and Liya was so happy that she ran up and down the corridor in a white dress that she had never touched.

Juao was also in a trance, for him the changes in the past few days were too fast, so fast that it was like the world was turned upside down.

He had been unlucky for decades, but in these days God seemed to have finally seen this poor boy and bestowed kindness on him, and everything seemed so beautiful that it was like a dream, and he couldn't believe it.

"That's nice......"

Juao muttered, he began to think about whether to quit his job as a sailor, he wanted to come to the Orthodox Church to become a priest, although he may not be very professional, but he could learn, even if he was not a priest, he could start as a volunteer, as long as he took care of the food......

Liya's white figure ran in front of her, and her mood was never happy.

sketches a bright future, but as everyone knows, this may be the last good.

......

Lorenzo stood on the top of the steps of the Yega Theater, and he looked at the crowded theater square not far away, where the kestrel and Eve had already blended in, just waiting for the action to begin.

"When are we going to start?" asked Haybod.

"It's already started. ”

Lorenzo replied, then walking towards the inside of the theater, he did not go to the hall where the performance was performed, but went up the stairs on one side.

"Aren't we waiting for the show to start?"

Erin asked behind her, and in Lorenzo's previous story, she had always thought that she had acted after the show had started.

"No, plans have changed, we have to be ahead. ”

Lorenzo looked solemn, and he kept all the secrets in his heart.

"Eve is right, there are too many unstable factors for the two of them to assassinate the Pope, maybe it will inspire something bad, and I can only end it sooner. ”

Lorenzo said as he said with a sudden stop, carrying a cello case and a staff and sword in his hand.

"Did you do what I asked you to do?"

Hearing Lorenzo's question, Erin was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses and waved her bandaged arm.

"That's good. ”

Lorenzo said and looked at Haybod.

"You're in charge of the negotiation next, I'm just a handsome. ”

As he spoke, he picked up his top hat and put it on his head, lowering the brim so hard that he hid his face in the darkness.

"Hold it, Irene. ”

With all that done, Lorenzo put a pistol in the pocket of Erin's clothes and continued.

"When the time comes, I'll let you shoot, and you'll shoot, you know?"

"Shoot whom?" Erin was a little puzzled.

"It's up to you. ”

Lorenzo pulled out Winchester as he spoke, walked behind Erin, and raised the muzzle of his gun to Erin's head.

"Then let's go, Erin, as you said, your head is worth a lot of money from the Iron Law Bureau. ”

Hybode on the side was completely stunned, he couldn't figure out what Lorenzo was doing, his eyes were confused, but when he faced Lorenzo, he was almost cut by the sharp blade under Lorenzo's eyes.

"Any questions? ”

"I didn't ...... No. ”

Hypard shook his head, to the point where he had no chance to stop, no matter what intrigues Lorenzo had, and looking at the long staircase leading to it, Hypard made up his mind and stepped forward.
