Having been ostracized by good intentions, there was no point in staying there, and Sigma simply stayed away from the Papal Palace, lest the well-meaning cardinals always stubbornly come to him and ask him to leave.

But no matter where he lived, Clement was always able to find him and come to the door uninvited.

"The aura of death in your body is the brightest torch in the night for the priests, and it is difficult not to pay attention to you...... Although this metaphor is not quite appropriate. The Acting Pope explained, "For a moment, your aura of death is like a dark and ugly mass of unspeakable things under the scorching sun to the clergy......"

Sigma's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he walked away without saying a word, but no matter where he went or which way he went, Clement followed quietly, and he couldn't shake it off if he wanted to, like a piece of the most hated kraft candy.

If the legendary powerhouse is disgraced, it is really the most troublesome thing in the world, just like the acting Pope today...... Two days ago, the two had a second round of confrontation, Clement used his conspiration to mobilize the high-level of the Holy See, and the white-bearded grandfathers sincerely persuaded Sigma to leave Cloudsdale, which was reasonable, leaving Sigma speechless and annoyed.

And as a retaliation, the necromancer came up with a clean trick to draw money from the bottom of the kettle, which was false and real, so that Clement couldn't make up his mind...... The disappearance of Nina and the Blood Shadow does not know how much psychological shadow it has left on the acting Pope.

But Sigma was obviously still too Lianqing, Too young, too simple, underestimating the thickness of Clement's skin...... Out of a certain jealousy, Clement was slow to tear his face, but he clearly adopted the most direct and effective method. That's all-weather tail sigma, like that. No matter what she wants to do, she can hardly escape the eyes of the acting pope.

Other words...... I don't know what kind of conspiracy your kid is planning. But if you keep an eye on you all the time, you won't be able to make much of a wave!

The necromancer walked for a while, and when he turned around, Clement was still three meters away, staring at him expressionlessly, and Sigma sighed: "Acting Pope, is it really good for you to do this?" The Templar plot continues, and Cloudsdale needs your seat to waste precious time on me. Is it appropriate? ”

"The large-scale sensing capabilities of the shelter defense system can envelop the entire city, and I will be the first to know if something happens." Clement said quietly, "It's not too late to go for reinforcements when the time comes." ”

The necromancer said angrily, "That won't work either! The war planes in Cloudsdale are running at full strength, and the priests are doing their jobs, from the cardinal to the probationary priest, everyone is doing their best, and they can't wait for one person to be used for two people. In this kind of united situation, it is even more necessary for you, as the leader, to lead by example, and you? Well? Wasting your precious time and limited energy on Toshio Oyuki, do you have any strange hobbies? Yes? Can it converge somewhat? ”

"You mouth. Speaking of what, it's really a set. Clement sighed twice and smiled. But on that note, you can rest assured. I have sought the consent of the Council of Cardinals. ”

"Huh?" Sigma was shocked. "Could it be that the cardinals think that you have been too tired for the past two days, so they have granted you a few days off? Take a break and nourish the soul of ** with the method of the beautiful man of the tail line? I'll let it go, you guys are really open, that white-bearded old man is so kind and kind, I can't imagine that this heart is very dirty. ”

"It's not." The corners of Clement's eyes twitched, and he still patiently explained that he had figured out Sigma's temper in the past few days, and this fang's violent speech was because he was unhappy in his heart, and if he was thundered by his vulgar tone, it would be his wish, so he had to be elegant, not dirty, and reason with him calmly, and the calmer he became, the more angry Sigma would be, "These days, the bishops want to persuade you to leave Cloudsdale and not put yourself in danger, but you don't seem to appreciate it, Rejected the kindness of the big red clothes. Everyone can't do anything about you, but they are also worried about your safety, so I can only come forward with the highest strength in Cloud Everdale and try to ensure your safety......"

Although Clement was calmly reasonable, his words were prickly, and he almost pointed his nose and scolded Sigma, "You wolf-hearted and dog-lung man who doesn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth, and doesn't know the hearts of good people."

Sigma was suddenly furious...... The cardinals' persuasion was undoubtedly well-intentioned, but Clement, who instructed them to do so, had a great evil intention, and this man was completely trying to drive Sigma out of Cloudsdale, and he told him this with all his heart—I have never seen such a brazen man!

Necromancer Pi smiled and said, "Then I really thank the Acting Pope for your kindness, thank you for the kindness you have done to me, and for your sincere dedication and kindness." ”

This sarcasm was useless, with the thickness of Clement's face, it was almost ineffective, and the acting pope said indifferently: "No, if you want to thank you, thank the cardinal for its tolerance and magnanimity." You know, in order to protect you, the Holy See's only legendary combat power has been dispatched, not out of quick maneuver and standby...... Although I can still rush to the scene of the incident as soon as something happens, following you and being on call in the shelter system are still two different things. ”

…… Lose the thunder of the building!

Sigma roared and flipped the table in her mind - fuck, you actually dumped the pot at me!

Although the necromancer was furious in his heart, he still knew that at this time, he would lose when he was angry...... After calming down, Sigma's expression quickly turned cold: "Thank you for the kindness of the Council of Cardinals for me, and I don't need your protection." Your power should be used in more appropriate places, such as protecting this church, protecting all those who deserve protection, necromancers don't need the protection of the priesthood, I can take care of myself. ”

"I refuse, as long as you are in Cloudsdale, the Holy See has the responsibility and obligation to protect you, even if there is a chance, we can't take it lightly, because Sigmar, you are not alone, and you can't be willful at will. There are several powerful forces behind you, and they are all watching you. With you as the sustainer, or even the new core. Your life or death is at stake in the bigger picture. Clement also said coldly, "If you die in Cloudsdale." The Holy See will be burdened with heavy pressure and trouble, which we do not want to see in the midst of a crisis, so we must do everything in our power to keep you safe, even if it will distract our already scarce forces. ”

He looked at Sigma indifferently, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "If you really resist this matter, and really don't want the Holy See to disperse its combat power because of you, then the best way is for you to leave Cloudsdale right now." Don't let us be afraid of you anymore. ”

The necromancer took a deep breath, his anger burning in his heart, but it wasn't time yet, calm down...... He exhaled a breath and said softly, "You, Hugh, think." ”

"Still stubborn? With your wisdom, you shouldn't be unsure of what will happen next. Clement narrowed his eyes, "The clergy who remain in Cloudsdale will know something...... A sensitive necromancer refused to leave the Holy See, so much so that the Acting Pope had to protect him personally, thus preventing the Acting Pope from getting enough rest. It is impossible to be on standby at the shelter defense platform, so that it is impossible to be on the scene in the first place when danger strikes and save those who may survive......"

The necromancer's eyes widened suddenly, and his eyes were like electricity. Looking directly into Clement's eyes, the dead silence and killing intent contained in those eyes made even the soul of the legendary powerhouse appear a little sluggish.

This is a vicious ploy to the extreme...... It wasn't even like the words that a clergyman could say.

Public opinion will soon reverse...... After this statement became widespread, Sigma was regarded by the clergy as a wayward person who did not know the height of the sky. even caused trouble to others because of his willfulness.

Trouble, of course, because in the eyes of all. The role played by a high-level necromancer is far less than that of a legendary powerhouse who goes all out. His existence and stay involved the energy of the only legend of the Holy See.

But they didn't know that the necromancer, who didn't know the height of the sky, insisted on staying here in order to protect the Holy See and protect this Cloud City, and he was the only one who knew the truth, and knew the truth that no one would believe.

Therefore, while he worked hard to protect this holy city, he had to endure criticism and even accusations from people who shared his beliefs and goals...... These people are good people, they are all good and righteous people, they are all people he admires, and because of this, their accusations and criticisms are even more sad.

But even so......

Ji Li's figure suddenly came to mind, her eyes and smile, her dreams, her smile, her strength, her weakness, a memory of being with her flowed like water.

The necromancer was silent for a long time, and finally, he smiled with relief.

"I seem to be mistaken about something, and you seem to be mistaken too." Sigma whispered, "As a necromancer, staying in the base camp of the priesthood and guarding their holy city, what is my reason for doing this?" There are a lot of them. ”

"Acknowledging the faith and existence of the Light, respecting the beliefs and choices of the clergy, as well as the yearning and love for the Light since childhood. From a human point of view, I appreciate and appreciate what the Light has done for the Race and hope that they will continue to guide the future of the Race, so to protect it as much as I can - I think it is the duty of every human being...... This is number one. ”

"Entrusted by the Pope before his departure, entrusted by others, loyal to others, this is the second."

"As for the third ......," a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "the third is that Gilly wants to protect the city, her church and her faith, so I came with me, and I will definitely help her do what she wants to do." ”

"So, do you understand?" Raising his chin slightly, the young man looked at the silent acting pope, and there was a pride in his words that he had never seen before, "Got it?" One of the reasons I protect Cloudsdale is that I don't want to be grateful to the priests, I don't care what they think, and I don't mind how they hate and criticize me, the clergy hate and criticize the necromancer, it's a matter of course, Atlas has been criticized for his necromancy and undead powers for hundreds of years, and this prejudice will live on forever, because living beings always resist death...... We have long been enlightened. ”

"I've come to my senses...... And mentally prepared, I will not feel sad and painful, and I will not give up halfway, even if the whole people in Cloudsdale misunderstand me, it is nothing. Sigma said softly, "Because I understand that even if the whole city doesn't understand what I'm doing and thinks my insistence is willful, there is one person who will trust me as always, and I believe that I must have a reason to do this, because she is the person who knows me best in Clouddale, and even if the whole city is criticizing me, she will stand up and defend me vigorously, believing that I must have a reason to do it...... Her efforts may have had little effect, but it was enough to think that there was still a heart supporting me when I was still alone in the face of criticism and hostility, and it was enough, Clement, if you think that this will make me retreat, wishful thinking. ”

Clement looked at Sigma and sneered: "What about yourself? Sigmar, you may really dismiss the world's criticism as nothing, but you can't stop one thing...... True hatred comes from your own heart, and you will think about it, remembering the death of the clergy, and you will unconsciously take on the lives of the dead, blaming their deaths on yourself, even if you are doing what you think is right......"

He stared at the necromancer's young face, paused slightly, his mind wandered slightly, and he said calmly, "Only in this way do you know how difficult it is to follow what you think is the right path. ”

The necromancer calmly looked at the acting Pope: "You too, Clement, you are the same as me, as long as your holy light still shines, your heart will be tortured, struggled and doubted far more than mine. ”

The Acting Pope let out a hoarse laugh.

Two proud and stubborn souls looked at each other like this.

Every confrontation, every temptation, is a collision of beliefs.

There is no so-called fair competition, there is no so-called chivalry, only the continuous set-up, endless obstacles, so that the weak know the difficulties and retreat, so that the cowardly people stop, only the real brave can face the difficulties, through the layers of obstacles, implement their will, and the strength of the strong enemy, the final battle.

Clement was unable to fully exploit his strength advantage, and he had no reason or certainty to go straight and kill Sigma.

Sigma also did not have enough evidence to prove that Clement was an undercover agent, revealing his identity and purpose.

So, they unanimously chose this path.

Keep fighting, keep dueling, keep sticking to your beliefs, until you ...... The final showdown.

"Let's get started...... Sigma sneered, "I'm ready." ”
