Chapter 409: The Glory of the Holy Lord
Li Wei personally sent Zhang Bao to the airship.
used the disguise technique to help him transform his lower appearance, and then used his illusion ability to help him pass the ticket and get on the ship.
Next, the days on the airship, Boss Zhang will not be very comfortable, but as long as he is cautious and arrives at his destination safely, that is, Beishui, there should be no big problem.
Beishui, located in the northern part of the kingdom, is the northernmost city of the Kingdom of Westom, and his Yipintang also has some industrial layout in the north. As for whether he can gain a foothold in the Northland and whether he can mix again, Levi doesn't care.
This is an idle move he played casually, whether it is useful or not, the relationship is not too big, and the final result depends on his own creation.
For him, the most important goal of this trip was to fight Norsman, add to his blockage, and by the way, he got Zhang Bao's six treasures, almost two million or more amethyst wealth, waiting for him to dig up.
That's a lot of money.
……
The city of Westdum, the upper district, Caldu, is also known as the Papal Palace.
Gardu is one of the two strongholds of the Holy Church in the Kingdom of Westdum, the other being the Glorious City west of the city of Westdum.
There is still a big difference between Galdu and the Glorious City within the Holy Religion. The City of Glory is the main garrison of the Holy Cult, and Galcus is where His Majesty the Pope is located. In the history of Westom, the power of the pope was once no worse than that of the royal government, but more than a hundred years ago, after the rule of the 'blasphemous king' Anbar II, the power of the pope declined sharply, and in nearly a hundred years, the Holy Religion once degenerated to the point of a purely religious organization, and its influence on the kingdom's political arena was minimal.
It has to be said that although Anbar has been labeled by the world, mainly by the Holy Religion, as blasphemous, disrespectful to ancestors, tyrants, obscenity, and so on, in the course of this hundred years of propaganda, he can almost be regarded as the most notorious king in the history of Westom, but Anbar II has made great efforts to remove the power of the church from the political arena of the kingdom. If it weren't for him, I really don't know whether the government or the church would have the final say in Westdum today.
But despite this, the church still retains a considerable power. This power is reflected in two aspects, one is their ideological influence on the people of Westdum from the upper class to the lower class, which is an immeasurable wealth; The second is the strong combat power of the Holy Cult Army.
The 'Decree of the Holy Army', issued by Anbar II a hundred years ago, introduced large-scale reductions and restrictions on the Holy Army. The original Holy Cult Army, that was a really large army, with more than 100,000 legions, was stronger than the Garrison Army. And the current Holy Cult Army is only a semi-military group, with no regular army establishment, and can only take the name of the Knights to mix outside, and the total number is probably less than 20,000.
But the average quality is higher. Today, the Holy Cult Army is still a powerful force that cannot be ignored in the Kingdom of Westom.
In the Papal Palace, His Majesty the old Pope, Samir III, sits on his throne with his eyebrows bowed, and the vaulted ceiling of the main hall, the walls on both sides, and the stained glass windows are full of various religious paintings, painted with various gods, angels, holy children, virgins and other characters, showing the colors of heaven.
"His Majesty the Pope." Nearby, a knight in full-body armor with a white robe painted with a red cross on it.
A red cross on a white background, which is the symbol of the Templar Order. And this bearded knight in the prime of life is none other than the chief of the guard of Samir III, the chief knight of the Templar Order, the knight of Berkeley, and the man who ranks fourth on the element list.
His Majesty the Pope did not move, but raised his eyelids and said, "Berkeley, what, is there something wrong?" ”
His voice was hoarse and vain. He was an old man who was now one hundred and thirteen years old, and he did not like to move very much, and often sat in the main hall all day, without saying a word, as if he had died.
But His Majesty Samir is still the greatest spiritual pillar of the Holy Religion today.
"Tianfu failed to keep Zhang Bao, and the Norman military took a tough attitude."
"Who means?" His Majesty's eyebrows raised again.
Berkeley hurriedly said: "It's Bishop Philip's meaning, he thinks that we don't need to make the relationship with Norsman too stiff for this money. ”
"Clever insight." Samir said this in a very flat tone.
Berkeley said: "Your Majesty, don't we really need to increase our efforts to fight for the property left by those chaebols? That's a lot of money, and if you have enough resources, it's also a good thing for the Holy Sect. ”
"Don't limit your gaze to those possessions." His Majesty the Pope said, "It is too late this time, and if it is really done, it will not be worth the loss." ”
Berkeley was silent for a moment, then couldn't help himself, and said his thoughts: "The cooperation between Norman and the Dark Order has already been confirmed, so don't we really want to do anything more?" ”
"Berkeley, you're still in too much of a hurry." Samir spoke, "I know your thoughts on cutting off evil. ”
"What's wrong with cutting off evil?"
"No, I didn't say you were at fault." "But where there is light, there will be shadows, and evil cannot be removed." We want to destroy demons, and that's right, but not at the cost of our blood. ”
"How can you kill demons without bloodshed?"
Samir smiled: "Of course, at least, without shedding too much blood." ”
There was a moment of silence between the two, and Samir continued, "Back then, I still remember when I was young, when the Holy Sect was at its peak; I also remember the blood shed by the Holy Church during the time of Anbar II. My goal in this life is to bring the Holy Religion back to its former glory. I thought I wouldn't have a chance in this life, but now, with the blessing of the Holy Lord, the dawn of victory has appeared. ”
"Don't be too anxious, Berkeley, I'm very old, I don't know when I'm going to die. I have been waiting for the glory of the Holy Lord for a hundred years, and I can still wait, why are you young people in such a hurry? ”
"But...... Your Majesty, the shadow of the abyss has hung over the whole of Westdum, and if we don't do something about it, I'm afraid there will be a catastrophe. ”
"The demise of the Norsman is doomed." "But not now." If he doesn't set off a great tribulation, how can the Holy Religion sprinkle the glory of the Holy Lord all over Westdum as a savior? ”
