Chapter 201: The Mysterious Man of the Imperial Capital

This is an old man wearing a white robe with an elegant temperament, although he has to stand on a staff inlaid with red gems, and his hair is gray, showing that he is very old, but his old body naturally exudes the breath of life, especially a pair of deep and bright eyes, it seems that it should not appear on an old man who has lost his life.

"Your Majesty has an idea of what happened to Thomas after spending four months investigating the Legion, and in the end he didn't even find anything out of the ordinary?" the old man's voice was old and heavy, but it was still deep. As an existence that can be respectfully called a teacher by the king of a country, he naturally sees the problem thoroughly enough and can hit the nail on the head.

Naturally, Jason rested his elbows on the mahogany seat, propped his head, and yawned comfortably.

"Thomas's ability to handle political affairs is indeed efficient, and many things in the future will depend on him! If he wants to set up an investigation team, I will naturally not interfere. If he, Thomas, just took advantage of this opportunity and took advantage of the fact that the Northern Army was on the cusp of the storm, and wanted to do something within the Northern Army and enlist some generals to use it for him, I would have nothing to worry about. ”

Jason smiled, if that was the case, he really didn't need to worry. Although Thomas's Ryan family is powerful, Thomas is only a civil servant, and the family has no roots in the army, if he wants to make a fuss about Nicholas's defection and insists on inserting a stick in the army, it is difficult to imagine that he will succeed.

"After all, this is just a dispute over family rights and interests within the empire, as long as it doesn't go too far, I don't need to interfere. But Mr. Isi, you also know me, as an emperor, you still need to take precautions. Jason continued.

"Thomas is different from the average courtier who wants to fight for power. His Ryan family is already recognized as the first family of the empire, especially in state affairs, the influence of the Ryan family is incomparable. As long as Thomas is loyal to the empire, I will definitely be satisfied with the glory that belongs to his family, but what if such a big family's desire is not only satisfied with this? This is also what I have to worry about, as an emperor, I must not easily obey others!"

"Your Majesty has a point, especially at times like these. "Issy always has the crux of the matter, and it has to do with his long experience with Jason and his own experience.

"Yes, although the whole continent is generally calm now, but this is only temporary on the surface, I think this calm is a little weird, maybe the change is about to happen. Once that undercurrent comes out of the ground, who knows how strong it will be? Will it be more than we can imagine?" said Jason, a little worried.

Issy has always been in the court, and has been with the previous emperor for many years, and he is still very keen about the form of intercontinental. In addition, Jason has been tutored by him since he was a child, so Jason is used to taking out many major events in the empire and discussing them with him.

"yes. It seems that the major forces on the mainland are all in the dark, and the military conflicts of the country are only partial, which is indeed unusual! I am afraid that the chaos of 10,000 years ago will reappear again. "No matter how deep Isai's concentration is, it is still inevitable that he will have emotional fluctuations when it comes to this topic.

"According to the information sent back, although Abomato has been very calm in recent years, he has carried out a lot of actions in secret, and I heard that he is very close to the side of the Holy See. Jason said suddenly.

"Your Majesty thinks that underground surge has something to do with the Holy See?" Issy was not an outsider to Jason, so he was not as hierarchical as ordinary kings and ministers.

"Teacher Issy," said Jason, "I would like to ask you, what do you think of the Holy See?" Jason sat in the large, comfortable chair, his eyes shining, even if they were half-squinted.

"Your Majesty should always be on the lookout and regard the Holy See as a great danger to his heart!" Issy's experience, he was shrewd enough to see what Jason was thinking.

In front of his mentor, Jason never concealed it, and immediately lowered his head. "Yes, the Holy See does not exist on the continent as a state, but it is precisely because of its peculiarity that it is disturbing!" said Jason.

The Holy See is a mysterious organization. Because outsiders never know when it was founded, and outsiders don't know much about the strength of the Holy See. But the Holy See's exposed strength is shocking, and no one dares to despise it, counting the internal strength.

The headquarters of the Holy See is located in Abomato, and in the other three countries except Noki, there are also clergy members of the Holy See. The Abomato Empire allowed the Holy See to preach among its people, but it never allowed the Holy See to interfere with its sovereignty and become politically involved.

Jason took Issy's words and said, "We, the Noqi Empire, have never allowed members of the Holy See to enter the territory. This attitude of isolation also makes us not know much about the Holy See. It is not clear what kind of relationship exists between the top of the Holy See and Abomato. Therefore, I also wonder if the relationship between the Holy See and Abomato is as it appears on the surface, and if the Holy See is really that undercurrent and has something to do with Abomato, it is not good news for our Noqi Empire. ”

"Your Majesty, as far as you know, what is the strength of the Holy See?"

Although Jason was a little curious, he still said: "The Holy See preaches in the territory of Abomato and relies mainly on the white clergy. In general, there are about ten white clergy in a city. The white-clothed priests, whether warriors or magicians, will not be higher than the seventh rank, and there will be a cardinal in several neighboring cities who will be in charge of this area. There are only ten cardinals who are active in public, and according to intelligence, the strength of these cardinals is around the eighth order. With these cardinals, the priests were still able to deter and threaten the opposition in the course of their mission. As for the overall strength, judging from the part of the strength that the Holy See has already exposed, it is extraordinary. ”

"I think not only us, but even the Emperor of Abomato, Vetut, can only roughly estimate the strength of the Holy See. Issy said.

"Teacher, are you saying that with the strength of the Holy See, their ambitions may not be satisfied by cooperating with the Abomato Empire alone, right?"

"Hmm. With the strength of the Holy See, they will certainly not be willing to settle for a corner. And, what is even more bizarre is that so far, the Holy See has not been able to extend its tentacles to us. That's not what they were meant to do!" Issy analyzed.

The glint in Jason's eyes weakened, he propped his head with his hands, thought for a moment, and said, "Could it be that the Holy See has also met an opponent?

"The old minister and His Majesty think the same. In this way, it seems that we can give a reasonable explanation for our previous analysis. Issy's expression became less calm, "Recently, I also secretly left the palace, and felt it in the outside world, but found that many masters who were originally unborn have appeared, although the undercurrent has not erupted, and I don't know who is secretly leading this mysterious force, but there is no doubt that the unrest of the continent has alarmed many masters." Assuming that we regard this force as the Holy See, no matter who is the opponent of the Holy See, the situation on the mainland will inevitably become more chaotic as the masters continue to join and the situation becomes more complicated. This is not only a time when lives may be ruined, but also an era of deceit between empires and empires. Perhaps, this is not an opportunity for our Nuoqi Empire. ”

Issy finally uttered what seemed to Jason to be earth-shattering. "Yes, as long as the opportunity is grasped well, the empire will definitely return to the top. Jason's eyes sparkled and he was full of pride.

Whether it is in good times or troubled times, as the helmsman of an empire, he will always try his best to seek greater interests for the empire he controls, no matter how much power and interests he has, he will never be satisfied, it is not enough to firmly hold the empire in his hands, but also to make the empire more prosperous, and then dominate the world, until he establishes immortal achievements. This is probably the dream of every tyrant.

There's nothing wrong with that, especially here with Jason. As a good king who cares about his subjects, he only ensures the safety of his people in times of turmoil, and then takes his empire further.

"Oh, Your Majesty, there is one more thing to say. Issy then said, "Recently I have found a group of powerful people in Nochi City, who are doing things very stealthily, not for political spying information, but as if looking for something, but unfortunately so far, I don't know their background. ”

"Oh, it's not a spy? Could it be that there is really any treasure in the imperial capital that can make these mysterious forces think about it like this, and it is worth using such strength to find it?" Jason sat in the wide chair, his sword eyebrows frowning slightly.

"It's not a new treasure that's being sought. Like the magic weapon that magicians and warriors dream of, there will definitely be news when it comes out. I guess it might be looking for a magic weapon that has already existed, or maybe it's simply looking for someone. ”

"Whether it has something to do with the Holy See and that undercurrent, let's catch one and ask about the situation first. There was a hint of indifference in Jason's voice.

"Leave this to me. Issy then said.

Jason shook his head, "I won't bother you this time, teacher. It's just a live mouth, and you don't need to make the teacher work hard. Jason looked at the old man with a respectful tone and a concerned expression.

When the two finished talking here, Lin Xi, who was also in Noqi City, had just finished two hours of refining his body and was resting on the stone bench next to the training ground. Although he felt a little tired after sweating profusely, his heart was very hearty.
