Jerusalem, Council of Cardinals. ∧ pine∏ ∏ Xiao ∧ said

One by one, the cardinals in silver masks walked into the church and sat down in a random place in the prayer hall. There was no communication between them, just nodding their heads in acknowledgment.

The church had been closed for a day before, and then the priests, nuns, and volunteers had left, and the Crusaders had secretly taken over the place.

Outside the church, camouflage mode is patrolling around the church, and these mechs are all mecha knights of the Crusader Army, and there are about twenty of them. And on the top floor of the church, there was a Templar guard.

There are still more than a dozen nuns in the garden outside the church taking care of the flowers and plants, but it is conceivable who the nuns who can appear near the church at this time. Hidden beneath the wide robes of these nuns are heavy firepower weapons and energy barriers, and they are the last defense against the Crusaders on the periphery once they collapse, and if the enemy intends to attack at any cost, they will have to face their most powerful posture, the Holy Angel.

And in order to protect the cardinals inside from being injured, these angels are at worst the two-winged energy angels of the first order of the Holy Son, and the most powerful among them are the three-winged main angels of the third order of the Holy Son.

Unless such a defensive posture is the same number of angels, it is delusional for a fully mechanized armored division to attack in less than four hours, and it will have to pay at least 70% of the battle damage to break through the angels' defensive line.

"There are a lot of people here." One of the cardinals walked in the door and looked at the seated cardinals and seemed to laugh.

More and more people walked into the prayer hall, and when the last person walked in, the door was shut.

The last person to walk in was none other than the Pope, who walked in without a mask and with a cold face.

To be honest, the Pope's dissatisfaction was mainly due to his own rule-breaking, and when the cardinals proposed an early meeting of the cardinals, an extraordinary meeting would be held when the votes in favor reached more than 60%.

One can imagine how dissatisfied the Pope was, she was dealing with all kinds of huge documents that needed to be signed by herself, and in an hour she had to meet the little duke, and then meet with the first general of the Salvation Army to discuss some matters.

Now those things can only be put away, piled up with the events to be dealt with later, waiting for her.

The meeting officially began.

Then there was the cardinal's rattle, "What's going on?" What is the purpose of suddenly convening a meeting of cardinals? Do you know that my people who trade hundreds of millions of arms in a minute can't afford to delay time? Do you want the next batch of supplies for the Salvation Army's munitions in the southern city of Casal? ”

"I don't know, but I hope there won't be a problem with that batch of arms." One of the cardinals rang the bell.

"Don't even look at me, I was woken up while I was sleeping, I don't know what's going on."

"Don't look at me, I don't know what's going on."

Although the four cardinals who spoke were all wearing silver masks, their identities were easy to guess. The first to speak was Duke Tidong, who ran the largest arms business in the Holy Kingdom of Heaven, the second was Duke Lionheart, the Marshal of the Redemption Army, the third was Duke Aster, who was in charge of the largest bank business in the Holy Kingdom of Heaven, and the fourth was Duke Mechanic, who controlled the most cutting-edge technology, machinery, and industry in the Holy Kingdom.

They usually have a quarter of the veto in their hands, and when they reach an agreement at the same time, they can even veto a papal decree. Therefore, the status of the four of them is usually much higher than that of the cardinals present, the old people of the previous era, and they have contributed a lot to the establishment of this kingdom.

"All right, ladies and gentlemen," the Pope sat down with a bell, "let us bring out Duke Van Bier, who initiated this meeting, and explain why two-thirds of the cardinals were called for an extraordinary meeting?" ”

The cardinals were stunned, they wore silver masks because they didn't want anyone else to know their identity, but now the pope read out the name of the initiator in a grand manner.

The cardinal, known as Duke Van Beer, stood up and said, "An explanation, we need an explanation. He looked at the Cardinal of the Duke of Machinery, "Why did that force go out and disappear before our eyes without the cardinal's consent?" ”

"I don't know about this, I only found out that they set off in the morning, and I wasn't in Fei Lengcui some time ago." Said the Duke of Machinery.

"Can the Holy See give an answer? You have to know what the true face of that army is, it is a group of devils, and now the people who see the devil's cage say that he went out for a while, and then when he came back, the demons ran out, but he still doesn't know anything. Duke Van Bier shook the bell, "If it is true that they escaped, should we send troops to capture them?" After all, even one omission can have unpredictable consequences. ”

"Military operations." Duke Lionheart rang the bell, "It's my order to carry out a military mission." ”

Everyone looked at the duke, or the god of war. He was holding the marshal's staff, and although he wore a mask, his posture was absolutely indifferent. Everyone looked at this old lion who should have died a long time ago, and like that mechanical duke, they should have died a long time ago.

In particular, the Duke of Mechanic was diagnosed by a professional medical team more than thirty years ago that he would not live for a few years and his organs had failed significantly. But he survived, and the more he lived, the more energetic he became. He is almost one hundred and thirty-four years old this year, which is a terrifying age. Normally, at this age, he would have been lying in a hospital bed a long time ago, but now he is sitting here, looking at these new generation cardinals with eagle-like eyes, as if he is looking at a fat rabbit, how can he be a little old?

The god of war is almost the same, he is older than the Duke of Machinery, he was in his forties when he went out to help the Holy See fight against Gerkos, and now he is probably over one hundred and fifty years old, although he does not seem to be living younger and younger like the Duke of Machinery, he seems to have slowed down the effect of time on him, and his body has long been dead, but he can still attend the Council of Cardinals. And looking at him like this, I'm afraid he can still go into battle and command the army.

"Could you please explain the military operation you are talking about?" Duke Van Beer asked.

Duke Lionheart shook his head, "This is a matter for our military department, and besides, that army is already part of the Wehrmacht system, and I, as the commander-in-chief of the Wehrmacht, have the right to transfer them to perform some tasks." And the military operations of the military department, can you, as a businessman or politician, participate in it? No kidding! ”

The old lion was still so sick, but at the moment everyone felt a suffocation. Is this the majesty of the god of war?
