Chapter 17 Negotiations Come to Man
Beware of the person who negotiates this time, in my field of vision, he is not only cunning, but also full of malice......
Even after leaving the Tower of Wisdom and getting into Shak's unique carriage, Ye Qi in the carriage still couldn't help but recall the parting words of the Tower Master of the Tower of Wisdom - this was obviously a warning to him to be careful of one of the people who came to the Holy See negotiation, and the one who could make the Tower Master of Wisdom warn must have a great influence on him or this negotiation.
However, according to what the Holy See has done in the Sennuma District this time, some things in the negotiations have basically become established facts, and it is difficult to change them-
That is, that person, it is likely to have an impact on me......
Sure enough, the director of the inquisition can't wait?
Ye Qi thought silently, and then, his eyes narrowed, and his cold gaze flashed - Ye Qi had not forgotten the warning that Hessel had given him on the Tower of Moonlit Night that morning; As this old man said, with the Holy See in control, and under the premise that the Holy See has a great advantage, the other party cannot tolerate any change in the status quo.
Compared with the old man's words, Ye Qi, who knew the deeper purpose of the other party, understood better that the director of the inquisition who aimed at 'God returning to the world' had already had an enemy who could only survive with him - although the other party did not know the existence of the strange wolf, he had already predicted that the final result would be either your death or my death; In addition, the other party has obviously begun to lay out to him at this moment, as the tower master of the moonlit night said.
Although the other party did not confirm the news that he had become a legend, it was obvious to the director of the inquisition. All it takes is one suspicion β
So. Before the decisive battle. Let's start a warm-up game!
Don't worry, I'll cut them off one by one and crush them one by one!
After such a thought appeared in Ye Qi's heart, the killing intent immediately enveloped him like a thick smoke.
"Please, Ye Qi, what are you thinking about? It's cold all over! It would have made me think that there were two nophas in the carriage! Ted's words. interrupted Ye Qi's thoughts; Raising his head and looking at the giant man who looked at him helplessly, Ye Qi couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and pointed to the cold-faced man next to him: "I guess I was infected by Nuofa!" β
"Something like this is contagious?!" Ted immediately showed an expression that you were lying to the child, patted Ye Qi on the shoulder, and said, "Say, what are you thinking about that that you just become that murderous appearance?" β
"Just now, Master Pednange reminded me that some of the people who came to the Holy See this time wanted to be unfavorable to me!"
After a little joke, Ye Qi replied bluntly - this did not touch the question of his fundamental secret. When facing a friend like Ted, there is no need to hide it at all; Not to mention. When looking for 'the person from the Holy See who wants to be unfavorable to him', he still needs the help of the other party, and it is difficult to get the corresponding help if he does not inform the other party of the situation in advance.
"Uh, Lord Pednange and you aren't ......"
With another friend of his mind beside him, Ted began to gesture as soon as he said the words - however, it was clear that such a topic was just the beginning, and it was enough to make people aware of the follow-up, and the slightly gloomy face of the cold-faced man on the side could clearly tell the truth of such a fact.
"Master Pednange just has some conflicts with my teacher, I'm just angry! Moreover, Master Pednange had promised not to trouble me again! Otherwise, I wouldn't have let Nofa take me over and give me such a reminder! Looking at the surprised Ted and the cold-faced man with a soothing face, Ye Qi shrugged his shoulders and said, "It is estimated that Master Peidnange understood the meaning of the phrase 'there is a debtor who is wronged and has a debtor', and is ready to settle accounts with my teacher, so he easily let me go!" β
"Great! In this way, everyone can really become friends! β
When Ted heard Ye Qi's explanation, he immediately let out a cheer regardless of whether it was in the carriage; However, in the face of such cheers, the cold-faced man snorted lightly, neither showing agreement nor disagreement; It's not a bad attitude at all - if you don't know the cold-faced man well, you will definitely think that this is a sign of disdain from the other party, but with Ted sitting here, he immediately patted the other party's shoulder, and said with a smile: "I didn't speak, I just acquiesced!" I told you a long time ago that you and Ye are definitely the best friends you can be! The same calm, cautious, good at thinking, the same character, of course, is the best friend! β
"Just before my teacher and your teacher go to war!"
In the carriage full of Ted's laughter, the cold-faced man suddenly threw out such a sentence, and immediately, Ye Qi, who didn't take all this to heart, was stunned - in Ye Qi's eyes, although Ted showed a warm-hearted attitude at this moment, it was obviously just a hot head for him and the cold-faced man; After all, Ted also used this attitude to ease the relationship between the two at the beginning.
And seeing the cold-faced man's previous attitude towards Ye Qi, the result is naturally obvious - therefore, although Ye Qi is full of gratitude to this huge man for Ted's hard work to ease the relationship, he will not take it seriously at all; It's just that at a moment that he never expected, the cold-faced man actually spoke!
Teacher, is that everything to you?
It's okay to change your attitude for the sake of your teacher......
Looking at the cold-faced man in front of him, who still had a cold face, Ye Qi was slightly stunned before coming back to his senses; As for why the other party had such a change, he only thought about it a little and had a clear idea - to be able to make the cold-faced man have such a change, it is undoubtedly because the attitude of the tower master of the tower of wisdom towards him has changed before, and the cold-faced man will change here.
For such a change in the cold-faced man, Ye Qi just sighed slightly in his heart - he had no position to evaluate the rightness and wrongness of the cold-faced man's approach, although he understood that some of the feelings had already surpassed the apostle, but. This did not prevent him from stretching out his hand with a smile.
After all. It's someone else's business. And it is a kind of privacy, as an outsider, what qualifications do you have to participate in the affairs of the other party?
He is not one of those so-called 'righteous and awe-inspiring' papal scholars who call all impurity the existence of burning at the stake; What's more, in some ways, in the eyes of those papal scholars, he also needs to be burned at the stake; What is wrong with two people like this who become friends temporarily?
"Reacquaint, Ye Qi!"
"Nofa!"
The cold-faced man looked at the palm stretched out in front of him. After a slight hesitation, he also stretched out his hand; Then, in the next moment, the moment the two hands were grasped, another huge palm appeared above them, and closed tightly with themβwith a hearty laugh, Ted shouted, "I'm so happy to be today, my two best friends, finally become friends; It's a day to remember, and we need to have a drink! β
"After the papal see's gang is temporarily arranged. How about we go to the Dolphin Bar to celebrate? β
Ted's gaze turned to the two friends in front of him. Loudly proposed.
"The Holy See's arrivals need to be properly arranged, now is not the time to drink!" Ye Qi smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "If one is not careful, I think our 'friends' of the Holy See don't mind doing something for me right under our noses; β
"Moreover, the existence that has other thoughts about Ye Qi must also be found out in advance!" Compared with Ye Qi, the cold-faced man was more direct: "No matter who has such a mind in Xia Ke, then it must be eliminated and uprooted!" β
"Ugh! Hey, hey, you don't need to do this, it's all the same breath! Under the words of the two, Ted immediately grimaced, and said, "Sure enough, calm and cautious people meet together to have such an unbearable situation; I miss Darlan so much now! Big people have to be big people to understand! β
The big man, who is also a Shak, has a good relationship with many people in the witcher's headquarters, especially Ted, who is similar in size; Before meeting Ye Qi and the others, the two of them would meet at the Dolphin Bar almost every week, eating the famous apple pie and drinking the sweetest mead together.
"Even if Darlan is here, he can understand what is the right way!"
Ye Qi saw Ted, who was deliberately pretending to be depressed, and couldn't help but smile and said-Although Ted is also a drunkard, compared to a certain Lord of the Six Towers, he still knows what is called the distinction between public and private and the priority of the situation; The other party's performance is more to enliven the atmosphere and establish a friendly relationship between him and the cold-faced man more quickly; For this, Ye Qi was full of gratitude, and he naturally would not give up the opportunity created by the other party.
Therefore, after finishing speaking, Ye Qi glanced at the cold-faced man - obviously, the cold-faced man was a little unaccustomed to such actions, and after he was slightly stunned, he reacted and said: "Among the people who came to the Holy See this time, there are a total of three envoys in charge of negotiations, as well as five entourages, a total of eight people; Two of the chief and deputy envoys are at the level of cardinal archbishops, while the other is a regional bishop, and the remaining five entourages should all be priests or black-clothed deacons, who are responsible for daily life! β
"Hey, hey, Nofa, you don't have to cooperate like this!" Ted immediately shouted loudly, but there was a smile in his eyes that couldn't be hidden when he looked at Ye Qi and Nofa, he made a hurried expression, and said first: "These two cardinal archbishops, aside from one who took over the position of the cardinal archbishop you killed, the other is a neutral person in the Holy See!" β
"Neutral?!"
Ye Qi couldn't help but look at Ted in surprise - in Ye Qi's impression, the director of the Inquisition, a dominant group in the Holy See, should have been a genius for a long time, how could there still be a faction like 'neutrality', which is often two-sided and the first to perish.
"Although the head of Iyeta is the only one in the Holy See, he is definitely not covering the sky with one hand!" Seeing Ye Qi's surprise, Ted immediately explained to Ye Qi: "Get rid of that Peter. In addition to Pope Paul, and the Holy Knights who support the Pope, there is a force that exists completely as the Holy See is! β
"The way it is? Alms to the poor, preaching. Free treatment, teaching?! β
When I hear it as it is. Ye Qi said completely subconsciously - giving alms to the poor and preaching. Free treatment and teaching, something that only philanthropists do, although it is not at all reminiscent of the current Holy See, but when the Holy See first appeared, it was such an organization; At the end of the Dark Ages, the Holy See was exactly such an organization for the purpose of mutual aid, and it was only with the passage of time that several of the biggest changes made the Holy See become what it is now.
As an enemy of the Holy See. Ye Qi will naturally be very interested in the study of the Holy See; Therefore, he is very clear about this history of the Holy See, and he sincerely appreciates itβno matter what the current Holy See is, but the original 'first Paul' founded the organization now called the 'Holy See' solely for the sake of more people's lives, and just the people he helped at the beginning are enough to make everyone's hearts admire, even the enemy.
Especially when the 'first Paul' was born into a wizarding aristocratic family, such qualities were praised and admired by the world - after all, according to history. In order to help others, this 'first Paul' not only spent the hard-won wealth of his ancestors. Moreover, in the end, he sold his ancestral home, and in exchange for the money, he converted the farm in the suburbs into the first headquarters of the rescue society.
And there, now called: Kinabalu Cathedral - of course, this cathedral has been built countless times, especially in the Holy Age, and it is almost every three years for minor renovations and every ten years for major renovations; It is long gone as a farm; Still, there is a glimmer of the farmstead in the book's record: a well-groomed dirt road for a carriage, and though it was muddy on rainy days, everyone still walked on it with smiles on their faces, for not far away Master Paul was renovating the hall of the manor, which would then be the residence of forty-seven of us.
Among them, Lord Paul is naturally the 'first Paul', and the forty-seven people in the first person description are also very famous - the prototype of the first generation of Holy Knights, and now the founders of the Holy Knights.
Of course, if this were the case, according to Yetch's guess, the 'first Paul' would also be called a scheming conspirator, but the ultimate result of this Paul was that he gave up the idea that at that time, an enemy of Paul's family, a nobleman who was also a wizard, took a group of refugees from the Rescue Society, and directly exchanged the life of the 'first Paul' for the price.
Perhaps at the beginning, the hostile wizard aristocrat just wanted to humiliate Paul, who was no longer worthy of being his opponent, and the nobleman who was so lonely that he didn't even have an ancestral home; However, when he actually saw Paul who came to the door alone and did not hesitate to put the sword around his neck, the wizarding nobleman was shocked - of course, the wizarding nobleman who gladly accepted the life of his opponent never knew how much trouble he had caused to future generations of wizards.
If the hatred for witches comes from the witches' own 'lost nature', then the hatred for witches was planted in the hearts of the sages of the rescue society at that time, and firmly took root, and when this small shoot, which was weak at that time, grew into a towering tree, and when the so-called rescue society, renamed the Holy See, the burn at the stake, appeared in Lorante.
It seems that only in this way can we feel the hatred in our heartsβand this is how the Age of Blood came quietly and unconsciously; All the remaining wizards in Lorant were silently unaware, and when these wizards reacted, even the king beside them could not stop the onslaught of the knights named after 'holy'.
God is the deity they believe in.
Saint is the 'first Paul' in their hearts.
Although time has passed, the Holy See is no longer the original rescue society for the purpose of mutual aid, but the name of the Holy Knights has remained, and they have taken it as their duty to protect each generation of 'Pope Paul' in accordance with the will of the first generation of knights - these are all about, the history of the Holy See, Ye Qi is very clear, but he did not expect that there are clergy in the Holy See for the purpose of mutual aid.
"Is there really anyone like that? Mutual aid? What's his name? β
Ye Qi frowned and thought for a moment, then turned his head to Ted and asked.
"Tkawicz, the cardinal archbishop of the Holy Grove who has traveled all of Lorante! These include the Shak and Qiulin districts; Even the cardinal archbishop of Hailin has been there, but the conflict with the wizard there has allowed the cardinal archbishop to cultivate for two years! And if it weren't for the rescue of the Holy See, I'm afraid that this only remaining neutral of the Holy See would have been dead for a long time! Ted replied truthfully.
"Is that director Iyeta just watching the existence of this neutral person?" Ye Qi asked rhetorically.
"Of course not! With the character of the director of Iyeta, how could such a thing be tolerated! Ted smiled and said, "It's just that this Cardinal Archbishop of Tkavic not only has considerable strength, but he is also the person appointed by the previous Pope to receive the 'Divine Grace'!" β
