[Three hours before the countdown to the bishop's vote]

Rosa angrily crumpled the secret letter in his hand and smashed it on the ground, the secret letter was sent by Richelieu through secret channels, and the seals and handwriting on it were all written by Richelieu's own handwriting, but the content inside made him a little violent, this old thing actually made him fully support the new pope to the throne? Just because that little apprentice knight is also worthy of being a pope? Richelieu is crazy?!

He couldn't wait to find Richelieu right now and question him face to face, but what made him angry was that he couldn't see Richelieu at the moment, and such a major news had directly passed him and announced it to the public!

In this way, even if he unites other bishops to oppose this matter, it will make the Holy See lose face, after all, such a major event as the succession of the pope is repeatedly reversed, which will not only make the people talk about it, but also make all forces see the joke.

However, now, he can't care about so much.

"Contact the other bishops immediately, I suspect that there is something strange in this matter, and a new pope must not be elected so easily until he meets His Holiness the Pope." Rosa looked gloomy and said to the butler next to him.

The butler looked at his gloomy expression, didn't dare to say more, nodded and whispered.

"I don't believe it, other bishops' churches tolerate an unknown stinky boy to be pope!" Rosa secretly said in his heart, as one of the eight cardinals, he is in his early seventies this year, and he is also considered a senator among bishops in terms of seniority, and he thought that when Richelieu abdicated, he would be one of the most powerful contenders, but now he directly buried all his hopes.

In order to wait for the day of Richelieu's abdication, he had secretly buried his chess pieces since twenty years ago, preparing for the coming of that moment, but this moment came too quickly and caught him off guard, so that he was unexpected, and directly crossed the voting link and swept him out!

He really can't swallow this bad breath, and after more than 20 years of careful management, he will now face a situation of losing everything.

"Old fellow, what the hell is in your stomach, damn it!" Rosa clenched her fists and slammed it on the table, and the wooden table suddenly cracked a crack.

At this moment, there was another sound of footsteps outside the door, Rosa turned his head to look, only to see that the butler who had retired earlier had actually returned, a trace of anger flashed on his face, and he scolded: "What are you going to do when you come back, don't go quickly, miss the time, I want your head!" ”

"Oops......"

A playful voice came from behind the butler, and the next moment, the butler's body fell straight to the ground, and he was already dead.

Rosa's pupils shrank, and he looked at a black-robed figure like a wizard behind the butler, his face changed slightly, and his eyes said calmly: "Dark Holy See? How dare you come to me, are you here to die? ”

That being said, his palm quietly moved behind his back and felt for the alarm line under the table.

After all, the latter was able to break into his castle and look so fearless, most of the time because of the bad intentions.

The black-robed man said with a smile: "First of all, let me introduce myself, here is the elder of the fifth district, you have given me a good title, called Ghost, I like it very much." ”

Rosa had a cold face and said, "I know you, in the Battle of Red Castle eight years ago, you escaped by luck, and today you still dare to appear in front of me, it's not a small bold!" ”

"That time I was bullied by you with more and less, and today I want to experience the feeling of bullying more and less." The black-robed man smiled and clapped his hands, and suddenly several wind sounds surged, respectively from several broken lattice glass windows in the room, and several bangs, the glass windows were kicked and shattered, and several figures jumped in, falling into the room, faintly showing a corner trend, surrounding Rosa.

Rossa's face changed slightly, and he felt a hook of his fingers under the table, but found that the dark line was loose, indicating that the line was cut short!

His face was ugly, he didn't expect that his well-guarded home would be infiltrated by the other party unconsciously, which can only show that by his side, there must be a chess piece of the Dark Holy See lurking as an internal response, otherwise these people would not have appeared here silently!

"Just a few of you want to assassinate me, it's too simple!" Rossa's eyes were gloomy, and he didn't make a rash move, but delayed time, hoping that his henchmen and knights stationed around the castle would be able to detect the situation here, "If there is really a fight, my people will rush over immediately, since you have thrown yourself into the net, don't even think about leaving!" ”

Although I know that I am at a disadvantage, I can't lose my momentum.

The black-robed man chuckled and said, "Lord Bishop, we are not here to kill you. ”

"Huh?" Rosa's eyes moved slightly, but his heart was still vigilant.

The black-robed man said leisurely: "Our family asked me to communicate with you, I think you have also heard about the change of popes, my family hopes that you can fully support the new pope to the throne." ”

Rosa's face changed, this is really familiar, what he just saw from the secret letter, this is what it means, can it be ......

"Your lordship? Are you Richelieu?! Rosa looked at him gloomily, but a chill ran through her heart.

"No, no, no." The black-robed man immediately shook his head and said, "Richelieu has already pledged allegiance to my family, so, as Richelieu's subordinate, I hope you can also cooperate." ”

Rosa was stunned and suspicious, "Your Excellency the Pope will be loyal to your family?" Who are your adults? ”

"You don't know, but my family is a big man from the inner wall." The black-robed man said with a smile, he didn't know much about Du Dian, and at this moment he deliberately said that he was from the inner wall area, the purpose was just to deter Rosa, after all, Du Di'an gave him the task of asking Bishop Rosa to support the new pope.

The word "please" is very particular, so please let him be.

"Inner wall?" Rosa was shocked, and suddenly felt pressure in his heart, the character who can hijack Richelieu, if it is from the inner wall area, it is very likely, after all, Richelieu's power is not simple, at least as far as he knows, this old guy's power is even higher than that of the Great Light King, and it is deeply hidden!

"Bishop Rosa, have you thought about it?" The black-robed man was not in a hurry, and said with a smile.

Rosa stared at him, and after a moment, gritted his teeth and said: "The new Pope is a member of your Dark Sect, if he is on the throne, it will be equivalent to giving up the Holy See to you Dark Cultists, don't you think about it!" Even if I die, I won't agree! ”

"Then you're going to die!" The black-robed man shrugged his shoulders and waved his hand.

Whoosh!

Several figures around them suddenly jumped and pounced on Rosa together.

Rosa was startled, but did not panic, and her body jerked backwards, slamming into the glass window behind her.

Burst!

A cold light stabbed silently and suddenly from the window, the speed was extremely fast, Rosa was shocked, he didn't expect that there was a person lurking outside this window, and there was no sound coming out, although his perception ability was not strong, but it was not so weak that it could not be detected by people so closely, which can only show that the latter is a terrifying assassin who is extremely good at hiding!

The sharp blade pierced through the back, and the pain instantly spread throughout the body, and Rosa let out a low roar of pain and slapped out with a backhand.

Bang, the old palm shook on the black shadow outside the window, the black shadow snorted, the body flew out upside down, fell out of the window, and fell to the floor more than ten meters high, just about to fall, he quickly grabbed the wall with his palm, and the palm seemed to have a suction, which was firmly attached to the wall, like a spider.

On the other side, when Rosa repelled the attackers from behind, his body was blocked, and he was immediately surrounded and attacked by several people around him, he glared angrily, and roared and slapped his hands towards one of the slender figures, ready to find a breakthrough from here.

The slender figure held a soft sword in his hand, and it shook like countless silver snake heads, and pounced on Rossa's face.

Rosa was bare-handed, not daring to attack, he immediately withdrew his hand, and at the same time felt the strength pass quickly, the pain in his back spread to his whole body in a short moment, he was just about to change his gesture to defend, but the pain surged to his arm, and in an instant, like a cramp, his body was a little stiff.

In this brief stiffness, several of the people who were caught in the flank suddenly hit Rosa.

With a bang, Rosa's body flew out like a rag bag and smashed against one of the walls of the room, and the huge oil paintings hanging on the wall were also shaken down, and dust fell down on Rosa's face and hair, looking extremely embarrassed.

Rosa struggled to get up from the ground, a countercurrent surged up in his chest, and suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, splashed on the expensive carpet, his face was flushed, and he looked up at the black-robed man and others approaching, he was so angry that his hair was open, but his whole body couldn't exert any strength, he only lay on the ground and trembled all over!

"As a human being, why should you have trouble with your own life?" The black-robed man looked like he was standing and talking without a backache and said with a smile.

Rosa's eyes were cracked, and she glared at him deadly, "If you want to kill, kill you, I'm going to kill you!" He spat out a mouthful of blood and splashed it on the black-robed man's face.

Several people around him immediately held weapons and prepared to attack.

The black-robed man immediately stopped, then raised his hand to slowly wipe the blood on his face, and ordered, "Go and get a pen and paper." ”

One of the people next to him immediately took it from the desk and handed it to him.

When Rosa saw this, he immediately knew what they were going to do, and said angrily: "Even if I die, I won't let you do anything wrong, you don't want to get involved in the Holy See!" ”

The black-robed man kicked him on the arm, and with a click, his arm suddenly broke, making him scream in pain, but his body was still numb, obviously, the blade of the previous attack contained poison.

"Cut this hand off." The black-robed man commanded.

"Yes." One person next to him immediately took out his sword, and before Rosa could react, he felt that his arm was cold, and his arm was cut off!

The black-robed man picked up the severed arm and said softly, "Even if you don't come to the table, your intention is the same, Lord Bishop, I will send you to the arms of your God of Light." ”

Rosa glared angrily and cursed.

The black-robed man turned around and raised his hand slightly.

Poof!

Several flesh piercing sounds sounded, and Rosa was lying on the ground with four sharp swords stuck upside down, nailing his body to the ornate carpet, blood flowing down the blades.

Carly is one of the two women of the eight cardinals, and is Chinese New Year's Eve eight years old today, which is an extraordinary achievement to be a cardinal at this age, the youngest of all bishops. Of course, this also has to do with her family's help, after all, his grandfather is the fourth pope!

"Lady Carly, is it ready?" On the sofa in the study, there was a short old man, carrying a broad sword, wrapped in black cloth, and in several other places in the study, there were four figures in black robes, with a cold temperament, like four ghosts.

At the feet of Erlang, who was a short old man, there were two corpses, one with his head cut off and the other with a chest pierced, with great wounds. Many nobles recognized these two people, they were Bishop Carly's personal attendants, although they were only attendants, but in the eyes of many nobles, they were also a big man.

At the desk, Carly sat in a chair with her hair disheveled and an ugly face, holding a pen, scribbling with difficulty on the words of the short old man, and on her beautiful cheek was a bright red slap print, from the hand of the short old man.

In the hands of this long-standing Sword King in the Dark Sect, she had no power to fight back, and could only be forced to obey!

After a few moments, Carly finally finished the letter, the pressure on her body seemed to be suddenly lifted, and she bit her lip slightly, knowing that by doing so, she would betray her faith, betray the Holy See, and betray the great God of Light! However, if she doesn't do this, not only will she die, but she will also affect her own family, she only hopes that the other bishops can escape this catastrophe, as long as there is opposition, this puppet pope controlled by the Dark Holy See will not be able to ascend to the throne!

"Show me." The Sword King stretched out his hand casually.

Carly picked up the letter and handed it to him slowly.

The Sword King glanced at it, his eyes narrowed, and he smiled: "The handwriting is very beautiful." With that, he put away the letter.

Carly's face was ugly, and she said, "I've done what you said, don't hurt the innocent anymore!" ”

"Innocent?" The Sword King glanced up at him, "When you killed our disciples, why didn't you think that they were also innocent, they just liked things, and they were a little different from you. ”

Carly knew she was not qualified to reason with him, so she gritted her teeth and bowed her head, saying no more.

"Now, I have to ask you to come with us." The Sword King stood up, patted the invisible dust on his body, and said: "The new Pope succeeds to the throne, how can there be no bishop to support it, then you can also see the Pope Richelieu that you have never forgotten, he will give you the answer, I hope you don't make stupid mistakes, I can kill you at any time, anyway, your vote is already in my hands." ”

Carly clenched her hands, her nails digging deep into her palms, she knew she had no choice, but there seemed to be a glimmer of hope to see Richelieu!

In another castle, Rados was covered in cold sweat, quickly wrote the letter, handed it to the black-robed man in front of him, barely squeezed out a smile, and said, "Do you think this is okay?" ”

The black-robed man glanced at it, put away the letter, looked up at him mockingly, and said, "I didn't expect that among the cardinals, there are such weak existences as you, if the other bishops are like you, it will give us peace of mind." ”

Lados smiled and said, "What you said is that if you need my cooperation, you can just say it." ”

"Come with us." The black-robed man didn't bother to speak, snorted, turned around and walked outside, raising his foot and stepping over several bloody corpses on the ground.

[Two hours after the end of the voting meeting]

Patton followed El Nolin through St. Mark's Square and came to the front of the Papal Temple, Patton looked up at this magnificent temple, his face was full of shock, it was the first time he had seen such a magnificent building, a solemn and sacred aura came to his face, so that his heart was in awe, all distractions were left behind in an instant, and his heart was full of piety.

"Come in." El Nolin leads the way in front.

Barton followed him into the main hall, and immediately saw many high-ranking people of the Holy See of Light standing in the main hall, including a knight chief in bright silver armor, a holy priest holding a book in his hand, and a person wearing a snow-white high hat.
