356. The Chess Player

When he came out of the woods, Sean's face was gloomy.

He got the answers he wanted to know.

But the answer was not what he wanted.

Because the person who was sent to track him was actually from the God of War Church.

Sean knew from the beginning that there was a serious factional split within the God of War Church, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.

From the mouth of this pursuer, Sean learned that the situation between the Pope and the two holy sons has been formed for many years, but in recent years, the Pope's strength has grown slightly, so the two holy sons have to be wary of each other while forming a fragile alliance. It's just that this situation has been maintained for quite some time, so now all three parties are trying to change to get out of this situation.

Considering the particularity of the God of War Church, even if there are some disputes and conflicts between these three parties in private, they are all controlled within a relatively limited level as much as possible. Because if there is a large-scale civil strife, then the result will only allow the enemies of the Church of the God of War to succeed - the St. Joles Empire has been thinking for a long time about infiltrating the Northern Duchy Commonwealth, and the Emilian Empire has also been thinking about expanding the empire for a long time.

So in fact, the Federation of the Northern Duchy is not as easy as the outside world thinks.

And at this time, the appearance of Emily, the holy woman, is very subtle.

At the same time, all three parties saw hope for a change in the situation.

No matter which side it is, as long as it can win Emily to join, it can immediately form a complete suppression of the other two.

It's just that this time the god of war gave the order of the oracle. It was for the Pope to send someone to welcome Emily's return, so the Pope was the first person to approach Emily. In the midst of this. As long as the Pope operates a little, then it is easy to put Emily, who is temporarily helpless, in the Pope's ranks. In this way, it is undoubtedly a powerful boost for the pope faction that has already faintly suppressed the two holy sons.

However, Sean can imagine that with the current chaotic situation of the God of War Church, once Emily defects to the Pope's faction, no matter what the reason, it is obviously impossible to leave the Pope's faction. Determined to turn the Church of the God of War into a religious organization like the Church of the Morning Light, this Pope will never allow the power of the Holy Son and the Holy Maiden to expand again, he will only firmly control everything in his own hands.

Similarly, the other two holy sons who are eager to expand their own strength will definitely not choose to be on an equal footing with Emily. All they want is to use the influence that Emily has the potential to have. It's just that because they were given the moon by the Pope, these two holy sons naturally had to think of another way, but they really couldn't do it, they would rather kill Emily than let Emily arrive at the Grand Church of Marz.

No matter which faction Emily chooses, she will only be a pawn.

In the eyes of the Pope and the two Sons, Emily could only choose to join one of the three of them, and did not consider whether Emily had the possibility of standing on her own. Perhaps, in their opinion, Emily simply does not have the strength and possibility to pull up a team on her own, because even they have spent a long time, energy and financial resources to finally have today's status and power.

If it's for Emily to toss on her own. Then she really had no choice but to be a pawn - although, now it seems that she is nothing more than a pawn of Sean. However, the equivalent of being used as a victim and pawn in the internal struggle of the God of War Church, what Sean was able to give Emily was undoubtedly much better.

That's why. So after hearing the stalker's words, Sean knew that not only Emily, but all the people related to Emily were probably already targeted.

That's the last thing Sean wants to hear.

And this stalker. It comes from the Son of God faction named Bissos.

This is the second answer that Sean least wants to hear.

Among the two holy sons, Bissos has the unique identity of the chief holy son. It's like Heatley is to the Church of Life, and her identity is very special. It's just different from Heatley. Bissos has to throw away Heatley dozens of streets in terms of authority, appeal and influence, and nearly half of the knights of the God of War in the entire church are under his orders, which is the real reason why he can argue with the Pope and another Holy Son.

However, the fact that another Son was able to compete with Pisus naturally had his own strength, and more than half of the war priests in the entire church were under his orders. In addition, he also has two private armed forces, and in terms of military warfare ability, he is on a par with Pissos, the only thing inferior is that his own divine power is not as strong as Pissos, so he failed to win the title of "chief".

In fact, if these two sons really joined forces, even the Pope would have to retreat. But unfortunately, these two people are wary of each other because of this, so they finally let the originally weak Pope have the strength to be able to suppress one of the Holy Sons alone. But even if the situation has become like this, the two holy sons still don't have the idea of uniting as one, at most, it is no longer so serious to tear each other down.

And after passing the information of this stalker, Sean finally knew why he felt dangerous to Luo Fu City.

The knights of the god of war in that city were the men under the command of Bissos.

When Pisus learned that Marz had sent an oracle asking the Pope to come to the town of Donmar to meet the Holy Maiden Emily, Pissos immediately ordered the knight of the god of war to approach Emily, intending to grab a real near-water platform. It's a pity that when Pissos's order was delivered, Sean happened to take Emily to Black Iron Castle and settle down with Count Hecarrom. Semys met, so the two sides just passed by.

It's just that it was precisely because of this passing by that this God of War knight of Luofu City had an impression of Sean.

He can't do it to Emily, and he can't do it to Shawshank, who belongs to the same church, but that doesn't mean he can't do it to Sean. Originally, when he received the news that Sean was shopping for horses and dry food in the small town of Donma. He had already started preparing near Luofu City, just waiting for Sean to show up and take it down. He wanted to know how Emily, the holy woman, had hidden from everyone. What the hell is going to be done in Count Hecarrom's Black Iron Castle?

But what he didn't expect was that just after Sean left the town of Donma. But it was suddenly rerouted to the east, and the people on the side of Luo Fucheng were caught off guard in an instant, so they could only send two pursuers to follow, and then they were dispatching people to pursue them. After all, as a city's church guard, even if they were under the command of Pissos, they could not leave blatantly, especially the captain who was in charge of leading the entire team.

It's a pity that they obviously misestimated Sean's strength, so the two stalkers died here.

After asking for information. Sean didn't torture these people anymore, he simply mended them with a sword, and then quickly disposed of the corpses. In fact, Sean doesn't need to do much, because although there are no monsters in this forest, there are other beasts, what Sean needs to do is to spread the smell of blood, and by the way, dispose of some more obvious traces, so that people can't accurately judge Sean's strength, and he left this forest.

But in the process. Sean accidentally noticed that his vindictive spirit seemed to have condensed a little, and his physical fitness seemed to improve slightly. Although the increase is very low, even almost an illusionary small increase, but for Sean, who has reached the peak of the upper gold. No slight change in his body could escape his senses, so he was 100% sure that his physical strength had indeed improved slightly.

It's like. The power of the void that caused lacerations to his body was absorbed and fused a little by his own body in this battle.

At this moment, Sean really understood the meaning of Hercules' previous sentence to himself, "As long as you live, you will understand the power of the Sanctuary".

Only at this moment. No matter how much Sean wanted to check his body, he knew very well that the time and place were wrong. Because the knights of the god of war of Bissos will soon catch up. So Sean didn't stop any longer, he turned over and rode his horse all night, and at dawn, Sean fed the horses again, and then made some hands and feet on the bantam, and then made up a sword, so that the bantam could run wildly.

As for himself, he chose to take a detour to the northeast, intending to advance along the edge of the Garuma steppe. Although he was still passing through the Duchy of Northern Lens, this time he did not plan to enter the city, but planned to stay only in those small villages.

Because the church construction specifications of the Church of the God of War have strict hierarchical divisions, such as those small villages, at most only one small church can be built. And often this kind of small church can have a third-order priest in charge, but most of the time it is only a first-order missionary or a second-order priest, which is an excellent hiding place for Sean. Because these people are too low-level to be valued by the Pope of the God of War Church or the two holy sons, the possibility of becoming their pawns and watchmen is almost equal to zero, which also gives Sean enough time to think about how he will arrange his affairs next.

Among them, the most important thing is naturally how to let your body absorb the residual void power in the body as soon as possible.

Because Sean has discovered that simply restoring his body to a state does not allow him to be promoted to the Sanctuary. In order to obtain the bronze body, he must integrate the power generated by the torn Void Storm into his body in order to strengthen his body to the greatest extent - after all, the way a warrior wants to become a powerhouse in the Sanctuary is completely different from that of a mage and a priest.

The latter two use magic and divine power to transform the body to the extent that they can withstand the power of the law. Their physical strength may not be as good as that of the warrior profession, but there is no difference in the level of use of the rules, or because they are strengthened by magic and divine power, it is easier for them to be promoted to the Sanctuary than those of the warrior profession.

And the fastest way Sean could think of to integrate the power of the Void into his body was to achieve his goal through constant fighting. (To be continued......)
