"Stand up!"

Baudouin said sharply: "My lord is still above, and the great cause of my lord still needs the unremitting efforts of our servants, loyalty and dedication, and do not look like the heavenly mountain has collapsed!"

Emily stood up a little, and she remembered the fluctuation in her mind on the way to her grandfather, which was like a battle horn, and kept her in a state of extreme tension.

That's right, that's the gaze of the goddess!

Although the goddess has lost the empress, she can no longer tell her followers and pay attention to them at all times, but this does not mean that their faith has been weakened or even shaken.

On the contrary, the faith needs to be stronger at this time!

The goddess is still waiting for mortals to dedicate herself to mending the Heavenly Mountain and bringing peace and tranquility to the whole world.

She turned to leave, to put her warband in order, when a thought crossed her mind stopped her.

Emily turned around and asked in a low voice, "Grandpa, did Your Majesty only issue an oracle to you, or did someone else also receive an oracle?"

Baudouin froze, as if he didn't understand Emily's point.

Then his eyes widened and he shook his head: "The Saints of Order, as well as Brinto, should have received oracles, we shouldn't ...... at this time"

Emily's tone became stronger: "It's okay to say that the Holy Maiden of Order, Grandpa, aren't you worried about what Brinto has in mind?"

"He has been squeezing you out from the beginning, he has been cultivating his henchmen in the Imperial Legions, the Governor's Office, the Governor, and the local nobles, and he also controls all the subdivisions in the south of the Holy See, and the Empress's secret intelligence services are also at his disposal!"

"He has the ability to usurp the reign of the Holy See of Order and even the Dawning Empire!

"How can he be strong in his faith when he mingles with officials, nobles, merchants, and assassin killers all day long?"

"Back then, after Grandpa carefully confirmed that Her Majesty Theresia had indeed endorsed the will of Cam, he abandoned the secret and turned to the light. Brinto didn't even see a figure, he surrendered because of the strength of the Loyal Divine Alliance, he is a speculator!"

"If he is allowed to seize power, the Holy See of Order will become the Court of Loyal God again! Empress...... No, Her Majesty the Goddess's previous great deeds will be gone!"

Baudouin's brows furrowed tightly, and he subconsciously asked, "Then what do you think ......?"

Emily raised her head and said, "Grandpa should immediately issue an edict as the first person of the Holy See of Order! I will lead the war group to bring the holy women back, and then convene the Master Assembly of the Holy See of Order, and officially sit in the position of the Pope." ”

"Grandpa, it's not for power, and it's not for profit. ”

"Only if you are in charge of the Holy See, the Holy See will not be corrupted and degraded and fall apart after losing the Empress, affecting Her Majesty's plans of the Goddess. ”

Baudouin shook his head: "The Holy See will be divided, and the empire will be divided, so you can't do that." ”

Emily didn't understand, "Why is there a split?, does Brinto dare to lead the followers of the Southern Order to deny Her Majesty's will?"

Baudouin sighed, patted his granddaughter on the shoulder, and said, "When the Empress is here, my lord can understand mortals like mortals through the Empress. When the Empress is gone, my lord will not ...... This needs to be done. Think about how the Empress stood up against the Loyal Divine Court in the first place, and you will understand. ”

Emily still didn't understand, but when she thought of the past and understood something, she couldn't help but shudder.

"Of course, we do have to be vigilant......"

Baudouin added: "You personally led the team to pick up Princess Ariel, and with her, the situation should not go to the worst." ”

Emily took the order, and Baudouin looked down in contemplation for a moment, and when he looked up, his face was already resolute.

The light curtain opened, and the half-length image of another old man appeared, it was Brinto, another cardinal of the Holy See of Order, who was also the Minister of the Interior of the Empire, and was in charge of the Church of Order in the south of the empire and most of the Order's divine power transmission network.

"I have summoned the Minister of War, the Minister of Propaganda, the Chief of the Legion and the Commander of the Fleet, and all the Bishops of the Southern Diocese of the Holy See are also waiting for my orders. ”

Brinto said coldly, "Just waiting for your decision, Baudouin, I could have issued the edict first. ”

Baudouin chuckled, "I can be sure that Your Excellency the Prime Minister, Remaco, Phillips, and the bishops of the Northern Diocese have refused your summons. ”

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Brynto sighed, "It seems that we are all sensible and know that now is not the time to argue about who is most qualified to speak for my lord. ”

Baudouin nodded, "We've all been in the Loyal Court for decades, and we know very well what our current situation means. We still have many enemies, mages and nobles who are eyeing us. When the Empress was there, they were like beasts in a cage, and now they ....... ”

Brinto spat out: "Very good, I'm afraid we don't have such a tacit understanding." Now we will immediately issue a joint decree to convey the oracle of our Lord, and first stabilize the Holy See. ”

Baudouin continued: "Gather all the officials, magicians, and nobles, and I have sent someone to fetch Princess Ariel, and settle the question of the continuation of the throne at dawn at the latest." ”

Brinto agreed: "This matter cannot be delayed at all, with Princess Ariel, there is still hope for the Holy See and the Empire." ”

..................

Above Valentine, a magical plane flying from the west, escorted by four Imperial Battle Ships, pierced through the barrier and flew towards the Fortress of the God Emperor.

There was no interior, just in the crew compartment of an old small propeller transport plane, the Marquis of Remacco, the deputy minister of military affairs of the empire, the director of training, and the commander of the Western Legion, exclaimed, which made the attendants nervous.

"Gone!?"

Rimaco's heart thundered and flashed, and the empress was gone...... No, it should be said that it is gone again.

This means that the Red Alliance's raid on the Fortress of the God Emperor was successful, and the Goddess of Order lost the last basis for the unity of man and god.

The blazing torrent rolls in the heart, a large-scale war is coming, and the part of the soul that belongs to the military is cheering.

In the past few years, he has been training troops in the western part of the empire, testing equipment, and testing tactics, and has been looking forward to the arrival of war, so that war can continue to change and even sublimate.

At the same time, a deep exhaustion also rose, weighing on the heart very heavy.

The mortal Theresia has long since passed away, and the empress doppelganger copied by the goddess of order relying on Theresia's residual will is still qualified, implementing Theresia's faith and will, and condensing the forces of all parties in the empire into one. Not only did it support the Goddess of Order's Heavenly Mountain repair project, but the empire was also becoming more and more stable, and the lives of hundreds of millions of subjects were far from rich, but they could have a minimum of peace and stability.

Now, without this empress, where will the empire go?

Rimac didn't dare to think about it......

The empire must be maintained, or why would he fight?

For the sake of the Holy See? That would be ridiculous.

So who inherits the throne?

Is it King Alanis, the Empress's son, Jon, or the Chief Order Saintess, Princess Ariel of Hadron?

If it's the latter, it's okay, as the Holy Maiden of Order, Ariel is connected to the will of the Goddess of Order, and can replace the Empress's clone and continue to maintain the state of unity between man and God. Of course, the effect is much worse, but at least it can maintain the stability of the Holy See. When the Holy See is stable, the empire is ......

Thinking of this, distracting thoughts came one after another.

At that time, it will only be the Holy See that will be able to stabilize, and let the fanatical believers of the Church of Order who only know how to shout "Goddess bless" and "My Lord is above" occupy important positions in the legion, and let those high-level church leaders who sneer at the technical equipment that "heretics can manipulate" such as magic guide weapons, magic guide vehicles, and mechas, and disdain the new style of warfare, dominate the direction of the war?

More importantly, can an empire ruled by the Holy See of Order still trust itself, a believer in the god of war, to tolerate herself commanding the most elite and powerful legions of the empire like an empress?

"Jon is the better fit......"

Even if Rimaco focuses on military affairs and does not care about politics, such a thought was born at this moment.

What allowed him to not care about politics no longer exists.

The last remnants of Theresia dissipated, and her belief in the unity of man and God should also be a thing of the past.

Distracting thoughts converge into tangled, and eventually rise into action.

Rhimak contacted a familiar bishop of order in the sky, the other party was only a master in Bled's area three or four years ago, and Romrose was captured when he invaded, or Rhimak specially sent a commando to rescue him, and the two had a good relationship.

"Is it Princess Ariel?"

Rimako sighed with mixed feelings, "I see. ”

Aside from sighing, Ryomac couldn't do much.

Of course, it's just him.

..................

Redstone, Cold Spring's Earl's Court, Zold, and Mosmut stared at the screen with straight eyes, and on the floating light curtain next to them, Chamberner was still chattering in a somewhat distorted voice.

"That fake empress has been killed!"

"I know this news is too sensational, but this is news from the Royal Mage Regiment, and it has also confirmed that the Goddess of Order wants to succeed Ariel, the Holy Maiden of Order!"

"Those guys usually look at us with their nostrils, but now they are panicking like lost dogs!

"No wonder, I often show up next to the Empress......"

"The Holy See of Order is another Loyal Divine Court, the times are reincarnated, magicians, you should think about the future path!"

"The Goddess of Order is still struggling, and she still wants to put the Holy Maiden of Order on the throne and continue to maintain her rule over the Empire!"

"We magicians should unite and prepare to face the Holy See's oppression and even attack on us!"

"Zold, Mosmut, I'm in contact with other magicians, one of you is the vice president of the Wizard Industry Guild, and the other is the president of the Mage Federation, you must stand up and take a stand. ”

"The meeting takes place at the seventh minute of the moon's set, Norton Shadow Network, you know. ”

"Don't worry about security, I'll dare to send you a message directly through the Order Communication Network. The Empress is gone, and no one can afford to continue to spy on us as before, but if the Holy Maiden of Order sits on the throne, it will be difficult to say. ”

Simberner sent only a video, and that ends with the video.

At this time, the two closed their mouths, they were watching Valentine's battle situation as a mirage drama, and they definitely didn't expect that the Red Union would really kill the empress clone.

"I've got to go back to the Floating City right now......"

"Many people should not know the specific situation, but they know that something is wrong, and they dare not communicate publicly, and they will use secret summons to find me," Mosmut said. ”

Zold's eyes blinked, his vision swiped with summons from various cronies and allies in the Santarin Order and the Mage Federation, all asking him what had happened to Valentine.

He nodded repeatedly: "Good ......"

Mosmut was about to start the teleportation, but he stopped again and looked directly at Zolde, his gaze was extremely sharp: "You know that, right? Zold, you already know that, right?"

Zelder struggled to twitch his face and smiled: "What is this......"

He tried to calm his mind, and said in an unfathomable tone, "At least we don't have to rush to pay the tribute that the goddess asked for." ”

Mosmut shook his head, gritted his teeth and said, "You really know!"

Then his eyebrows stretched: "That's a good thing!"

Mosmut vanished, and Zelder let out a long breath.

The messages swiped line by line in his field of vision, and with a wave of his hand, the message was pulled out and displayed on the screen.

Relying on his intimate connection with Chilian, he has a lot of ethereal spirit magic guides around him, and he does enjoy great convenience.

Reading the news, Zolde gradually calmed down.

"The empress doppelganger is gone, and it is not the prime minister who stands up to speak, but the two cardinals ......"

Zelder pinched his chin and snorted coldly: "Let the Chief Holy Maiden Ariel be the new empress, they order the Holy See to restore the Loyal Divine Court." ”

After a few spins with his hands behind his back, Zelder felt that Simbner was right, and that it was time for the magicians to unite.

At the very least, attempts to stop the Holy See will require a leader to step up and lead the way.

Simberner was definitely not the right person, the guy had been a lackey of the Empress for several years, and had a close collusion with the gang of Imperial officials, nobles, and royal magicians.

Mosmut didn't have that qualification, he just relied on the floating city, the floating ship and the elemental furnace to make a big deal.

He is also far behind, the identity of the speaker of the Mage Federation is a vase, and he is only the leader of the alliance in the Santalin Society, and he can't do anything about it. In the past, he had always wanted to reduce the frequency of the Crying Shahai Plane Collision Race to avoid being disqualified as a "special relation" by the Red Union, but he never succeeded.

It can have high prestige and make most magicians follow it with their hearts......

Zelder slapped himself, who else could it be?

Of course, it's the 500,000 Gimpour...... No, Hathaway Ted.

The Storm Islands already had a leader at the time of the Revolution, and after the magician returned to the mainland, although his plan to find the dawn was cheated by the Red Alliance, and he was greatly disgraced. She was trampled by the Temple of Commerce and labeled "500,000" for life, but then the feat of discovering magic particles and publishing them for free made her a recognized academic authority for magicians.

In the past few years, she has been immersed in research and education, and has trained a large number of magicians of the new era, and the low-level magicians regard her as the embodiment of the goddess of magic.

As long as she stands up, she can follow behind and pick a bargain.

"Send a video message to Teide Island, Storm Islands......"

After sending the message, Zelder muttered again.

"If Ariel is the new empress, the Red Union side will not be able to say that it will be a complete victory. ”

Even if it was his own magic tower, Zolde still subconsciously looked left and right.

Confirming that there was nothing out of the ordinary, he pulled out a ring, which was given to him by the Red Union Intelligence Bureau, and could directly contact the "old friend".

Mosmut was right, as long as the direction was in his interest, he was indeed the man over there.

In the bighorn whale at an altitude of thousands of kilometers, Li Qi rubbed his forehead and moaned, and Leia was counting down his life style problems.

Leia, who eliminated Theresia's ego, not only no longer stammered, but was also unusually articulate, after all, it was another form of Theresia.

Fortunately, communications from special channels saved him.

"Is that so......"

It was a voice message, and Richie's eyes lit up.

He sneered: "The goddess of order is still unwilling......"

When I told everyone, some were happy, some were nervous.

Aurora said in a deep voice, "Save Ariel! Let her sit on the throne, she will completely become a puppet of the goddess of order, completely hopeless!"

Leia almost subconsciously gave the order: "Act now!" Let the Intelligence Bureau lock Ariel's location, and the manpower is also ready-made, just arrest it!"

"Jon's ascension to the throne is the most in line with our needs, so that the Holy See, the great nobles, and the magicians will crowd out and fight each other, and the Dawning Empire will be in chaos!"

Li Qi pinched Leia's pink little face: "Don't bring it into your mother's mind again, and your inference is problematic, I don't see that history is changing dramatically, and some characters have long been in vain." ”

"Of course, rescuing Ariel is a must, it's just ......"

Tina voiced Richie's concerns, and although she was the mascot of the Intelligence Bureau, she was always a little professional: "Ariel has always been under the strict protection of the Holy See of Order, and there is no way to determine her whereabouts immediately. If it's teleportation, it should have been Valentine by this time, and we can't go back and fight Valentine again. ”

As soon as he said this, Richie's side-the-line assistant had another hint.

It was the news from the round hook, and Richie's eyes lit up again.

"Ariel's whereabouts have been confirmed......"

"She's still in Hadlang, on a manor on the outskirts of the royal capital. ”

"The information provided by the other party is accurate to the specific room and guard force, and it is also guaranteed that the surrounding local guards and Imperial legions will not intervene. ”

"The Warbands of the Hand of Order have gone over to pick her up, they have taken the portal of the Temple of Commerce, and they should have arrived at the capital of Hadron by now. ”

Tina was puzzled: "When did the round hook develop such a high-level inside line?"

Li Qi smiled: "On the side of the Dawning Empire, there are too many people who don't want Ariel to be the empress." ”

This is the information provided by Ariel's father, that is, the Imperial Prime Minister through an intermediary, and the meaning is very clear, hoping that the Red Union will arrest Ariel. Since I have been caught once before, I will do it again, and the others will have nothing to say.

However, not only the prime minister, just like Zold, who sent a message just now, but also imperial officials, big nobles, magicians, and a total of more than twenty high-ranking imperial officials sent similar information to the Red Federation through intermediate channels.

"We're over Tangus now......"

Li Qi got up: "Find two male sharks to carry people down directly, and you can get there in ten minutes." ”

He glanced at the witches, and finally his eyes fell on someone who wasn't a witch: "You're all tired, I'll go with Sardar to get it done." ”

The witches were originally eager to try, but when they heard Li Qi arrange this, they didn't fight.

The other party has neither a god clone, nor an eighth- or nineth-level power, it is just an ordinary team with few legends, and it can't make a big fuss, just have Li Qi and Sardar.

..................

On Ted Island in the Storm Islands, in the hall of the upper echelons of the Magic Tower, Hathaway looked at the night lady who was looking left and right in a daze, and sighed: "Is the lady looking for a chin? ”

"I'll ......"

Lady Night threw herself on the sofa, buried her face in the pillow and muttered, "The world is changing so fast that I can't understand it anymore." ”

"Wouldn't that be nice?"

Hathaway's silver eyes flickered, and the original shock had dissipated.

She raised her voice, "No!

She jumped up and floated in the air, her black hair draped and glaring at her legs with joy. The nightdress faded all the way to the base of the legs, revealing plump and white thighs, making the entire hall suddenly brighten.

"I said so, ma'am! Neither the mortal Theresia nor the goddess of order Theresia have ever won a battle with Richie!

Hathaway spun in the air with joy: "Great! I can get rid of the things that the Goddess of Order wants! Look who she asks for! I'm not one of His disciples!"

Lady Night pulled her face out of the pillow and sneered, "You're too ambitious, just thinking about that little thing, haven't you calculated what will happen to the Dawning Empire in the future?"

Hathaway paused, posed in the air in a cross pose, and sighed, "Don't care about what to think about, now it's a matter of Misya becoming a god, ma'am, the thing you mentioned is indeed very troublesome." How can I make a soul symbiosis contract with Misya at the same time as she becomes a god? ”

"So I think it's better to postpone it a little bit, and prepare more resources, so that if there is an accident, it will be easier to deal with it," said Ms. Night, "The summons of Zolde just now is a great opportunity." ”

Hathaway hesitated a little: "Going to deal with the Holy See of Order and those big nobles? This kind of thing is really annoying, and if Ariel succeeds to the throne, although it is not as good as the empress clone, it can still let the will of the Goddess of Order be carried out to the Holy See of Order, which is also a head-on confrontation with the Goddess of Order." ”

Lady Night's eyes lit up: "Then let's not let Ariel succeed to the throne......"

Hathaway froze, and the Night Lady continued: "Quietly kill Ariel and let that righteous son of Theresia succeed to the throne, so that the Holy See of Order will not be able to hold both divine power and power." ”

"Then you show up to organize the mages and unite all parties under one goal, one that can consume the power of the Holy See of Order and at the same time increase the power of the mages. In this way, not only can you take the opportunity to get a lot of resources, but also prepare a large number of believers for Misya, it is far from enough to rely on the cultivation of the magic academy, and it is too closely related to the goddess of magic. ”

Hathaway pondered for a moment and asked, "Won't this anger the Goddess of Order?"

The Night Lady laughed, "As long as that goal is legitimate, even if the Goddess of Order needs it, how can He fix you?"

Hathaway finally got to the point: "That's what it should be...... What is the goal?"

Lady Night stretched her waist like a cat and said leisurely, "Of course, we have launched an all-out war against the Red Federation." ”

Hathaway frowned: "Because of this, is there going to be a full-scale war?"

"The war of this era is no longer a small-scale battle for a few transcendents, but a seventh-level forbidden spell can be thrown casually, and mortals will have many casualties, I don't dare to think about it. ”

Lady Night spread her hands: "The Goddess of Order needs more Heroic Spirits to build Heavenly Mountain, and other gods also need Heroic Spirits to deal with the change of epochs and even divine wars. The Holy See needs war to prove their faith, mages and nobles need war to strengthen their power, and we need war to lay the foundation......"

She said disapprerovingly: "It's just civilians and ordinary transcendents who die, it's cannon fodder, it doesn't matter how much." ”

Hathaway hung in the air, her eyes flickering for a while, and she nodded heavily and said, "Then let's act, let's go kill Ariel now." ”
