Chapter Thirty-Six: One More Part I
Outside the meeting place of the Church League, a troop was moving in the direction of the tent. This group of cavalry is all cavalry, and all the cavalry are wearing heavy armor, the war horse is also a large war horse covered with steel armor, and the knight at the head is wearing a set of pure purple armor, and the two knight swords are resting on both sides of the waist, which is majestic.
Fright and Cox followed Riley into the large tent at the back, where several mercenary leaders were already sitting on chairs in the meeting, quietly watching the comers. Kesi is wearing a set of female mercenary clothes today, similar to ordinary female mercenaries, lightly equipped with chain mail and cowhide boots, and she also deliberately tied up her long dark brown hair, which looks very capable and refreshing.
Riley let the two of them sit very close to the high platform, and there was an extra chair specially prepared for that position, which Riley probably had set up a long time ago.
The other mercenary groups were only the leaders of the group who appeared in the conference tent, and the leader of the torn mercenary group, "Sharp Claw", was arranged to sit next to Feid, but in the direction of the gate. According to the custom of position display, in the eyes of the church, the two members of the potato mercenary group have a higher status than the archbishop's younger brother, which also makes some of the leaders of the mercenary group look at Fide curiously. It's just that Feder knows in his heart that they just value Kelth's status as the daughter of the duke.
Fyde and Coth weren't the first to arrive, nor were they the last, and a chair was vacant across from them, and it was unknown to whom it was left. Sitting next to the empty chair was Satnam, the head of the Church Order, and behind him stood the deputy head of the order, Rashard. The Rashad kept staring at Kosi intently, making her feel a little embarrassed.
Next to Satnam was Arturus, the leader of the servant mercenary group, and Dakari, the leader of the Dhaka mercenary group who had clashed with Fidel, was at the bottom of the line, and from the way he looked at Fidel, it could be seen that he had a grudge in his heart.
The other knights like Riley were already the lowest-ranking people in the venue, and this time even ordinary knights and church personnel did not appear, and it seemed that the content of the meeting was the highest level.
There was only one place on the podium, and it was the Pope's chair, but next to it there was a soft carpet, most likely where the Order of the Church had prepared for the archbishop to stand.
"Boy, you have a lot of face. Talon tilted his head and whispered to Fidel. Fidel didn't answer him, but "Talon" didn't go any further.
"Ladies and gentlemen!" Archbishop Arthur Auerbach slowly stepped out from the back of the platform, "Ladies of the mercenary group, it's a great pleasure to see you!" the archbishop was still wearing a red robe, but he combed his thick hair shiny.
All the mercenary leaders stood up and showed respect for each other's words, and Fyde and Koth followed the others' movements, and Archbishop Arthur Auerbach smiled and nodded at Koth. Only the archbishop's younger brother "Sharp Claw" did not stand up, is there any contradiction between the two brothers?
With the appearance of the archbishop, the pope also walked to the chair on the raised platform with the support of several young boys. It's just that the Pope has changed a lot from what he saw in the pool that day, and Fed and Coss found that the Pope, who was in good spirits and moved neatly that day, was hobbling and looking sickly today. Although the pope's attire became solemn and solemn, and his hair was covered with a large ceremonial hat, there was an indescribable unpleasantness, like holding a bowl of garlic soup from a cup of fine wine.
After the pope was placed in his place, he stared at the entrance of the tent without saying a word, his eyes open, and let the archbishop preside over the council.
Several of the leaders of the mercenary group showed sad expressions when they saw the Pope's state, they either clenched their hands into fists, or their brows were furrowed, and no matter how much they writhed, they couldn't feel the comfort of sitting in their chairs.
The Archbishop's speech was very clear, and the main purpose of this meeting was to give a first-hand glimpse of the determination of the archbishop, the Pope, and the armed forces of the Papal States to form this alliance to strike at the Empire of Eastern Oguna, an evil country called the infidels, to the east of the continent.
Arthur Auerbach constantly recounted the evil deeds of the East Oguna Empire, and at the same time described the people who lived in the empire as suffering people who had to be saved. The inner **, the people in dire straits, and the evil and distorted religious ideas were all vividly described by the archbishop, and the vivid depiction of the archbishop surprised even Feid, and he even began to believe the archbishop's words a little.
However, Keth also reminds Fidel that she has been to Grinco, the capital of the East Oguna Empire, and that this is not the case there.
While clarifying the righteous position of the Church Union and the Papal States, the archbishop used words to suppress the East Oguna Empire, wanting to resonate with others, and the leaders of some mercenary groups were also full of righteous indignation, especially the leader of the servant mercenary group, Arturas, who was so angry that he stomped his feet, eager to run to Grimmko immediately and eat the skin and flesh of Electrent IV and Prime Minister Hollow!
Sitting next to Fett, Sharpclaw, sneered, while Satnam, the head of the Knights of the Church, stared at him. Fei De began to feel that there were actually quite a few contradictions between these thirty or so mercenary groups, and although this so-called church alliance had a certain strength, it would also face many crises.
"There will be thirty-eight mercenary groups getting to know each other today, and one of them is not the resident mercenary group of the Papal States, but it doesn't matter, after all, we will all be children of the Heavenly Father in the future, and we are a family!" said the archbishop, and some of the mercenary group leaders began to whisper.
"Didn't you say thirty-seven?"
"yes, why is there an extra mercenary group?"
"You won't include the Knights of the Church, will you?"
At this time, the head of the Knights of the Church stood up and said loudly to everyone: "There is also a mercenary group coming here, I believe that with their joining, the war against the evil empire will be successful!"
Fei De looked at the empty chair in front of him, if he didn't guess wrong, this thirty-eighth mercenary group must have a great future.
Just when the hearts of the people were full of doubts, a group of people appeared at the door of the council's tent, and it was the same cavalry that had just arrived at the meeting place of the church alliance.
The man at the head is majestic, and his lilac plate armor is gorgeous and extraordinary, and it is rare armor at first glance.
"Below is the deputy head of the Knight's Mercenary Regiment, Marven," the knight immediately knelt down on one knee as soon as he took a step into the tent, his eyes fixed on Archbishop Arthur Auerbach, "I am ordered by the mercenary union and the head of the regiment to join the alliance today. ”
