Chapter 377, Civil War and Foreign Enemies
Aramis was now like a boiling hot pot, and the number of troops that the eleven archbishops were able to muster seemed to exceed everyone's expectations.
Although there are now more than 10 million fleets of expeditionary forces on Aramis outside, on the planet, eleven bishops are very quickly organized a group of troops for civil war.
Although it sounded ugly, it made Joliette feel a lot when she saw this situation. What the Wolf Ape lacks most is the population and soldiers, and in the extremely harsh environment, they all have to fight and fight each other for food, sometimes just to control the population. But looking at the Aramis Star, she could casually pull out a fleet and a thousand mecha troops, which really made her, the former city lord of Sky Wolf City, envious.
Of course, if you want to talk about civil war insiders, whether it is humans or wolf ape people, I am afraid that they cannot be compared with the Aramis people.
The armies of the bishops were assembled, confronted each other, and defended each other. Every colored unit chose a sea area to park its warships, thousands of warships made the originally large sea seem crowded, the various warplanes and mechs flying chaotically in the sky conveyed a signal of unease, and the salty sea breeze was filled with the smell of gunsmoke, and war was almost imminent.
At this time, the white cardinal St. Zachari was calmly sitting in front of the blue cardinal Ulysses. Behind him stood the white-armored paladin chief Christiana, as a deterrent to the Cardinal de Blue.
"I didn't think you'd do that!" Ulysses said very sadly, he felt that this old friend of more than 30 years in front of him had betrayed his trust, and he was also sentenced to believe in the same faith.
"I hope you understand, my old friend, at least I've confirmed one thing." Saint Zachari said calmly.
Ulysses raised his eyes and asked, as if he understood something, "Confirm what?" ”
"You should have found out a long time ago, right? Ulysses, you should have known about soul magic for a long time. ”
There was a sudden and imperceptible glow in Ulysses' wrinkled eyes, but it was fleeting.
Merely. This fleeting light was captured by Saint Zachari, who wanted to continue: "There is a kind of soul puppet in soul magic, which is a skill that can bewitch and control people's hearts. I don't know if you've heard of it? ”
Ulysses nodded.
"Don't you think there's something wrong with the three of you being held alone like Richelieu this time, and then being rescued together?" Saint Zachari asked suddenly and solemnly.
Ulysses pondered for a moment, he was also a human spirit who had lived for decades, so he naturally thought of the crux of the problem at once. Then, in a trembling voice, he asked, "You mean, we are all ......?" ”
Saint Zachari shook his head and said, "I don't know yet. But your suspicions have been cleared, my friend! ”
Ulysses stared at Saint Zachari incredulously with his old eyes. He found himself less and less aware of his old friend.
At the same time that the planet Aramis was preparing for intense combat, more than 3,000 golden Purdo warships in space slowly approached the planet.
Of the three inhabited planets in the Alexandre Dumas system, Aramis has the farthest orbit, so the Puldo fleet, which was originally outside the star system, reached Aramis the fastest. But that's it, Admiral Aramis still let the fleet form for a few days before it arrived.
And in the past ten days, the situation on Aramis Star has changed dramatically. Not even the battle on the side of La Rochelle could attract the interest of any of the cultists on Alamis, and now the intensification of the conflict between conservatives and radicals was the main focus.
The occasional skirmish between the bishops' forces heated up the situation. Under such tremendous pressure, even the forces under the Green Cardinal and the Pink Cardinal, who were also radicals, almost fought.
But fortunately, everyone still had the last shred of sanity and did not let the war break out. But now it's like a powder keg, with only a burning lead missing.
The news of the arrival of the Purdo fleet shocked everyone again.
Before the archbishop's troops rubbed against each other. From the original secret contest to the open sword, His Majesty the Pope seemed to have disappeared without making any speech. And now His Majesty the Pope should have something to say, otherwise in the face of foreign enemies, even His Majesty the Pope will be afraid. That would be an incomparably heavy morale blow to hundreds of millions of believers.
Sure enough, this time. Pope Richelieu came out. In a global speech, he called on the archbishops to put aside their misunderstandings and to put the Church and the Holy See first.
After listening to Richelieu's speech, Priestley, the head of the Holy Knights of the Red Diamond Order, punched the coffee table in front of him, shattering the coffee table made of stone, and he said angrily: "Since the Pope attaches so much importance to the attack of the Puerdos, why doesn't he send his own Dark Gold Holy Knights to fight the vanguard?" Do you want our Hongling Knights to take the lead? ”
Cardinal Lattimore sat peacefully on the side, drank the black tea in his cup, and said, "Don't worry so much, the Dark Gold Knights are the last bastions of the Holy See, and they will not be used lightly." ”
"What about the Pink Cardinals, the Green Cardinals, their troops? Why is it that our conservative forces rush to the front every time? The same is true of the previous expeditions, and the same is true of the current battle against the Poorens. Can't you, Bishop, talk to the Pope? ”
"Hey~!" Lattimore sighed deeply and said, "There is no way to tell the Pope, Richelieu is no longer the Pope His Majesty that we know." ”
"We can live now, that is, we can threaten the Holy See with the army in our hands. If the Bishop's troops are all killed, who else will be able to protect you, Your Bishop? Priestley said very sincerely.
Lattimore looked at the Wang sisters and Deng Zhiguo. Now these three people often appear in the cardinal's field of vision, Lattimore is just a mercenary sent by the blue cardinal Ulysses to contact and monitor, at first he didn't care very much, but later found that the three of them seemed to have a lot of information.
Pulling his thoughts back, Lattimore looked at Priestley and said slowly, "Now, we can only do what we want. This is also for the final victory, even if one of them is sacrificed, as long as there is hope for the star of Alamis, as long as there is hope for the Holy See, it is enough. (To be continued......)
