Chapter 383: Abandonment of the Oath

Unlike the auspiciousness at the beginning of the Double Holy Week, the Vatican at this time was already busy with the attacks of the apostles, the clergy were seriously communicating with each other, and the knights of the arch-papacy left the diocese in waves and went to various parts of the continent.

Lancelot was talking to a bishop at this time, and said solemnly, "Are you sure?" The Oathbreakers have recently attacked other villages? ”

Holding a Bible in his hand, the bishop nodded tremblingly, and said regretfully: "I have just received a report from the heads of the churches in other regions that the oathbreakers have reneged on the promise of Double Holy Week this time and launched a shameless sneak attack. ”

"Why would they do it? In the first six years, no one broke the vows, so why did this year suddenly happen. Lancelot was puzzled and said in a deep voice, "There must be a deep reason in it." ”

"That's beyond my ability to answer, Lord Knights of the Round Table." The bishop bowed slightly, shook his head and said, "The apostanders have no glory and faith, it is not inconceivable to do such a thing, Pope Nero II has begun to send knights to investigate, may the Lord be safe." ”

Just as Lancelot frowned and pondered, he suddenly looked at the location of the temple gate behind the bishop, raised his voice slightly, and called, "Mr. Rosslot." ”

After Lancelot and the bishop said goodbye, he went to the side of Lonlot and asked, "Did this meeting go well?" ”

"Okay." Luo Wei glanced at the heavily armed Lancelot and asked in a low voice, "Are you preparing to go on the expedition?" ”

"Pope Nero II has issued an order to the Knights of all units to cancel all Double Holy Week vacations and investigate the invasion of the Oathbreakers, including our Knights of the Round Table." Lancelot's expression was serious, but not the slightest resentment, apparently taking the matter as his mission.

Luo thought for a moment, but finally didn't say anything about his plan to go to the Oathbreaker Consular District to investigate, and instead asked, "Why don't you start with Blackbeard Richard." ”

"Just talking to you about it." Lancelot smiled slightly and said, "Before leaving, I, as the person in charge, need to interrogate Blackbeard Richard first. By the way, you're also an eyewitness, and it wouldn't be a bad thing if you could get involved. ”

Luo Wei was still waiting for Nero and Huo Anlisen's informant situation anyway, and he was idle when he was idle, so he went to the interrogation room with Lancelot.

The interrogation room of the Church of the Cross did not have the brutal style of the Dark Middle Ages, Richard the Blackbeard sat upright in his chair, his hands were cuffed to the table, and there were two guards guarding the room twenty-four hours a day, very simple and simple.

Richard didn't really have a deep impression of Lancelot, and the two didn't really fight, but they were caught by him in the end.

On the contrary, Richard was deeply impressed by Luo Wei, the posture of a single horse that seemed to break the sky, he would never forget it until he died.

"Shhh

Luo Wei has long been accustomed to this kind of thing, and he has not been molested once or twice, but Lancelot felt a little embarrassed, and just as he wanted to speak, Richard was the first to speak: "Oh, great Lord Knights of the Round Table, I heard that the mission of the church is to eliminate heresies, destroy demons, and eliminate evil, right?" ”

Lancelot didn't expect the other party to turn against him, and after a moment of silence, he said calmly, "That's right. ”

Richard's handcuffed hands suddenly loosened, and he aimed his two index fingers at Luo Wei, with a hideous expression, and said vigorously: "In this case, such a big monster is standing here, why don't you care!" ”

Lancelot glanced at Lorry and said to Richard, "He's a friend of the Cross Church. ”

"Wrong! You are wrong! Richard gritted his teeth, shook the table vigorously, and said viciously, "You have no idea what this monster has done!" This guy tore open my companion's chest with his hands, crushed his neck with his teeth, and ate him alive! And we can't kill him! Whether it's a shot or an axe, his body can grow back, and his arms, neck, and internal organs can grow out of those hideous wounds! ”

"You have all been deceived by his appearance! He's a rose, but if you break the petals, you'll find the bloody teeth hidden inside! Hahaha, ridiculous, isn't it! The church is a monster! ”

Lancelot was a noble knight, and he didn't care about Richard's "gossip" at all, and didn't believe it at all, but said righteously: "I think people who kidnap nuns and slaughter civilians are more like monsters than warriors who are alone and brave enough to save beauty, don't they?" ”

Richard was a typical old man, and he was so learned that Lancelot couldn't say a word.

Seeing that the verbal confrontation had been won, Lancelot said calmly: "Let's get down to business, Richard, who instructed you to launch the attack, and why did you specifically choose to attack the Double Holy Week?" You should be aware that these 14 days are protected by the Convention, and there should be no war in the world. ”

Richard stared at Lancelot with a cold expression, and without saying a word, the whole person sat in his position as if frozen.

After looking at each other for a long time, Lancelot also gave up the frontal attack and began to cut in from another angle, he moved a chair and sat down at the table, and said lightly: "Richard, before you became a Knights of the Round Table, I heard of you, you were brave and pious in the church back then, and you were full of spirit, I can't think of any reason for you to abandon the light and the dark." ”

Richard seemed to recall something, and his eyes became a little vicissitudes.

Don't look at Richard's down-and-out appearance now, and he was nicknamed "Blackbeard" as a violent man, but he was also a knight of the church on a white horse, and many nuns would dream of him at night.

After a long time, just as Lancelot was wondering if the topic didn't work, Richard suddenly spoke: "Fear." ”

This answer made Lancelot stunned for a moment, and Luo Wei also narrowed his eyes slightly.

Lancelot was silent for a moment, and said suspiciously, "Fear of what?" ”

Richard did not answer directly, but said quietly: "Knights of the Round Table, answer me a question, are you willing to give everything for the church, for the cross, for your faith?" ”

Without hesitation, Lancelot replied: "Everything! ”

"Because you believe that you can go to heaven after death?"

"And a mission to the people."

"But for many more it's the ascension to heaven." Richard's fingers tapped regularly on the table, as if in praise and as if sarcastic, "Not everyone is as great as you, and I can assure you that when your leader, Arthur Pendragon, died in battle, he did not think of protecting his people, but about to ascend to heaven and return to the arms of the Lord, and his heart was full of anticipation and glory." ”

Lancelot was silent for a moment and said, "So what? ”

"That's exactly why I shudder, Lord Lancelot, and being shrouded in this belief makes me feel like hell."

Lancelot's eyes were deep, he looked into Richard's eyes, and said faintly, "Can you give up your vows and beliefs, and you will be able to get out of hell?" ”

"I used to think it was, but then I found out that it was nothing more than jumping from one hell to another." Richard smirked, his thick eyebrows slightly raised, and said contortedly, "But at least my hell here is pure, unlike you, full of hypocrisy and lies. ”
