Chapter 1114: Sincerity of Faith

Mariott felt a heavy pressure because there were so many people in front of her, men and women, some of whom were not even human. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

And some people are obviously listening with curiosity, such as the suspicious little lion man who stares at him with round eyes.

There are also those who are completely gloating and planning to watch the show, such as the intelligence chief, a guy named Arion......

There are also lionmen, and elves, as well as princes and princesses from the former Longyuan Empire......

Mariott had a headache, why does this damn place have such a complicated personnel structure? If those things are said today, will it really not be spread? It seems that there are more than one or two guys here who will tell those news to others in the blink of an eye.

However, Mariott looked at the day in the midst of this large group of people, who had already prepared dim sum herbal tea and was ready to listen to the story, and felt a wave of annoyance and helplessness in her heart.

"What, is there any more questions?" Tianxian already had a snack in his hand, and urged at the moment.

There was nothing Mariot could do but wave his hand behind him, and the two knights behind him who were waiting in battle, and the knight who had already pressed his hand on the sword hesitated, and Mariott waved his hand again, and they retreated.

After the two knights went out, they walked away with the soldiers outside, and it seemed that what Mariott was going to say was indeed some kind of secret.

With a solemn expression, Mariott slowly stood up, then took a step forward and slowly half-knelt down.

Tianxian was about to listen to the story, and the dim sum was put in his mouth, and when he saw this scene, the dim sum almost fell out of his mouth again.

Although he almost wanted to throw this Mariot out now, it still felt strange to let an old man kneel in front of him.

But before he stood up, and before he could speak, Mariott had already spoken first, and in an extremely solemn and serious tone.

"Dear Grand Duke, on behalf of His Holiness the Pope, I solemnly apologize to you, and swear by the most devout faith in the Old Gods, and what I say next is not half false. ”

Tianxian had to scratch his head, and it was not good to help people up, and if he looked carefully at Mariott's dress today, he could be regarded as a grand dress this time, and the formal could not be more formal.

However, when I heard the old gentleman say that he swore by the most devout belief in the ancient gods, a group of divine beasts rushed through his heart, and this pope obviously wanted to do something.

Belief in the Old Gods?The Holy Spirit Temple would be strange if there was faith in the Old Gods.

Swear by the belief in the ancient gods?

Sitting back again, Tian Xian picked up the snack again and sighed......

After all, no matter whether the Holy Spirit Temple wants to create gods or do other more amazing things, they have at least made outstanding contributions to mankind, whether it is their ambition or in all kinds of conspiracies, at least the interests of mankind are still in a very high position.

As long as there is room for cooperation between the two sides, the Temple of the Holy Spirit is an incomparably powerful ally.

Pity......

Tianxian sighed again and ate some snacks, "Your Excellency the Pope is really painstaking, since I swear by my belief in the gods, I naturally will not have any doubts, Marshal Marriot, please also get up, the Pope's meaning has been reached, I am not used to someone kneeling in front of me like this, it will make me uncomfortable, especially an old man who is several times my age." ”

Mariott stood up expressionlessly, but still saluted again, did not sit down again, and said directly: "Dear Grand Duke, there is one thing, His Holiness the Pope told me to ask first, I hope you can understand our feelings and answer this question truthfully." ”

Tian Xian smiled secretly and nodded, "What question, since His Holiness the Pope is so sincere, I will naturally answer truthfully."

"Excuse me, is the knight who came to Fire Leaf City before and brought a letter from the Pope still in the city?"

"Oh, Marshal, do you mean Knight Bakker?"

Tianxian did not hide it, Yaoyao's problem was solved less than a day, and the Pope sent a messenger over, and I don't know how many eyeliners there are in the Holy Spirit Temple in this city, maybe where is the knight now, what are you doing and what are you saying?

Mariott's expression seemed to change slightly, and he seemed somewhat surprised that Tian Xian knew the name of the Balk Knight.

"Dear Grand Duke, Your Holiness the Pope has asked me to convey to you that he was indeed sent by His Holiness himself, although there is nothing on him that can truly prove the identity of the Holy Spirit Temple. ”

Tian Xian smiled, "I know, we have talked about it in detail. ”

This sentence made Mariott's face suddenly darken, the Pope made a lot of instructions when the knight's matter came, and now knowing that the knight had actually talked to Tian Xian in detail, Mariott suddenly understood that the situation had become very complicated, and it was even worse.

Mariott had to look at the man in front of him again...... It's really too much.

"So, can you tell me where he is?" asked Marriot in a deep voice.

Tian Xian shrugged his shoulders, "Lord Marshal, since the Pope has sworn by the faith of the gods, then we have nothing to hide, right, if I go out now, I just need to scan my eyes to find an eyeliner of the Holy Spirit Temple, where is that Mr. Knight, and what he is doing now, I think you know better than me." ”

Mariott lowered his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Please don't be embarrassed, this is a necessary etiquette, the Pope told me this time, there is an irreparable rift in the relationship between the Holy Spirit Temple and Fire Leaf City, but this rift can be understood by both sides, so the Pope believes, I believe that the Grand Duke is still willing to cover this rift." ”

Tianxian nodded, but sighed again in his heart.

If you want to make up for this rift, then Tianxian is naturally willing, but at least you have to show sincerity, our Pope will come up and move out the so-called belief in living beings, what kind of sincerity can there be in this kind of thing.

In contrast, the mysterious Mr. Knight is the more sincere one, although he has to kill himself before.

Tian Xian had to start thinking about what the relationship with the Holy Spirit Temple would develop in the future, and whether there would be a huge conflict between the two sides.

"I understand perfectly well the Pope's feelings. Tian Xian smiled, "And I'm willing to mend this rift, so...... Is there anything else the Pope has to say?"

Mario nodded, "Dear Grand Duke, we will send someone to get in touch with this knight, please don't be surprised." ”

Tian Xian smiled, "He was originally a member of your Holy Spirit Temple, and his willingness to stay here does not mean that he will be subject to my control, and you don't have to ask me if you want to contact him." ”

Mariott nodded again and continued, "Also, in addition to asking me to apologize, His Holiness the Pope would like to give a full explanation of the arrival of the knights. ”

"Well, I'm listening, and to be honest, I'm curious to know why the Pope would send such a figure to Fire Leaf City. ”

"Because of Yaoyao. Marriott said directly without hesitation.

"Dear Grand Duke, I don't mean to be offended, but according to the information we have gathered, it seems that you were blackmailed by the actual controller of the Longyuan Empire some time ago, a young man named Babarot, and the weapon he wanted to hold you under control was that girl named Yaoyao. ”

Tianxian took a sip of tea, noncommittal.

"And that girl has been in our sights for a long time, and in fact we have been looking for and rescuing her, hoping to defeat Barbarote's plot, and hoping that our sincere ally, the Grand Duke, will lay down your burden and cooperate with us. ”

Tian Xian had to smile this time, "It turns out that the Holy Spirit Temple has also been secretly concerned about my affairs, and I have to thank the Pope for this." ”

For the irony in the gossip, Mariot suddenly ignored it, and continued: "It's a pity, with our strength, it is not possible to find and rescue Yaoyao, I believe this, the Grand Duke, you will definitely believe this, after all, the state of that girl when she appeared in Fire Leaf City was completely beyond your expectations." ”

At this point, Tianxian also had to admit that when he came back with Yaoyao...... I can't think about that scene anymore.

"Therefore, according to all the information we have collected all along, after detailed analysis and discussion, we have come to a conclusion some time ago, that is, the Grand Duke, you have been completely controlled, and you have completely fallen to the side of the Longyuan Empire, and the important resources in your hands will also be taken away, so ......"

"So the Pope sent a near-invincible living dead to kill me!?" interrupted Mariott softly, but coldly.

"Yes!" replied Marriott, stiffly, staring at the sky without timidity.

"Dear Grand Duke, we do not deny this, and we are also willing to express our full apologies, I hope you can understand our approach to the greatest extent, this is also for the consideration of the entire continent, fortunately, you are not really controlled, and in the end, the success of the Jedi counterattack solved all the troubles, which made the Pope and all the high-level priests particularly impressed. ”

"Oh......"

Tian Xian pulled a long tone, "So His Holiness the Pope now realizes that this is a mistake in the news, so he made the wrong decision because of the situation that led him to misjudge the situation. ”

"Yes!"

"I don't really blame him for saying that. ”

Mariott was a little speechless for a moment.

Although this truth is very high-sounding, even an old man like Mariott who has been in the business for a long time can't help but sigh a little when he says this.

This rhetoric...... It's too much to say.

Of course, Mariott didn't think that these words would convince Tianxian, and he immediately continued: "This matter ...... The mistake is naturally on the side of our Holy Spirit Temple, and I have only been appointed by His Holiness the Pope to explain the reason. ”

"Well, then I see, is there anything else?"

Tianxian is a little disappointed, if it's just these messy things, then I really don't have the heart to listen to it, everyone knows this kind of thing, and the more I talk about it, the more irritated I feel.

"Your Excellency, Your Holiness would like you to be present at the headquarters of the Holy Spirit in person, and His Holiness would like to see you in person. ”

Tian Xian grinned this time.

"Marshal, why do I always think that you have something you haven't said yet?" Tian Xian glanced at the people around him, "Look, we are all waiting for you to say something that will surprise everyone, but you just said something that no one will be interested in, and in fact, we all know it for a long time, do you think that this is open and honest enough for me to go and meet the Pope?"

Marriott's face suddenly became a little ugly.

He really didn't want to say something here, after all...... Those things the Pope also advised, as long as you can say that you can move the sky and come to the world, then everything has room for maneuver, and don't say anything if you can't say it before.

Seeing that Mariott was a little hesitant, Tian Xian yawned directly, "Lord Marshal, I am very tired today, I think your spies have already told you all about my actions today, I really need to rest now, and I don't want to waste time with you here." ”

Marriott hurriedly bowed his head and saluted, "Honorable Grand Duke, please forgive me for my hesitation, I do have something to explain to you, that is, ......"

"Wait!"

Tian Xian suddenly interrupted Marriot's words, and his tone also lost his previous politeness, "Marshal, I hope you can understand that the powerful knight came to kill me, and the reason why I am still alive is not because the Pope has prayed for me, but because I myself have enough strength and luck, and I have enough reason to be angry now, but I don't want to do that, so I hope that since you have come with the sincerity of the Pope, then you will not test me again and again......"

Slowly took a sip of herbal tea, and said lazily: "I'm not in a good mood now, because I need to rest and want to accompany my friends, but I was pulled here by the enemy, and even they didn't repent!"

Mariott suddenly felt a slight chill run through her body.

"Oh yes!" Tian Xian blinked his eyes, "I said I had already talked to that knight once, if you are now representing the Pope's sincerity, then it is best to speak carefully, I trust that knight more now than the Pope, if there is any discrepancy between your words......"

Mariott wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, and suddenly felt the pressure double!

The city is like an abyss! The spirit officer will not leave here, and so will the knight...... He'd already talked to the lord in detail? That's true, but what did he say?

What the hell!

Mariott knew in her heart that now the other party had the greatest reliance, that is, she didn't know what the knight said, and if she said the wrong thing now, the consequences would ......

With a sigh in his heart, Mariot said secretly: "Your Excellency, you have always given me difficult errands for so many years, but this time...... It's too much, I'm also dying of old age, and I'm about to retire.
