Chapter 422: Turning Point
"Bishop Anthony, why are you trying Luna, a member of the Cult of the Divine Birds?" After a few pleasantries, Alyssa asked the old man who was respectful to her. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 In addition to the Chaos Church, which competed with the Order, there were many indigenous churches in Holutia, which had not been wiped out with the times, and there were quite a few stable congregations in some small countries.
The Church has always known about the existence of these churches, but even in the Church, there is no unity of attitude towards these small denominations. Bishop Antony represents the attitude of some radicals who believe that these small denominations will shake the cohesion of the Holutian Union and should be eradicated, while the moderationists believe that these churches have their own raison d'être and that the church should treat them with moderation.
Alyssa, on the other hand, has always been neutral.
Because she was directly under the command of Godia, and the Holy Maiden never asked about such disputes between powers. In times when there was no war, the main role of the saint was to protect the imperial capital and become a spiritual pillar for the people. Of course, in Lin Qiu's words, it is to stay in the church and sell cuteness.
"Lady Elisa, do you know that this little girl named Luna is the Holy Son of the Divine Bird Cult, and she has evil blood in her body!" Anthony's tone was quite a bit of a grue, in the kingdom of Talon, where the knowledge of engraving was not widespread, Luna was simply a heretic!
He had seen the guards who had sent Luna slice open a small patch of skin on Luna's arm with a dagger, and the scar would heal in less than a few seconds - Anthony had never seen a man who could not be killed in his life!
If you have to elaborate, the main reason why he is eager to judge Luna is that in addition to the Kingdom Army that contacted him, the fear in his heart also occupies a huge proportion, especially the soldier of the Kingdom Army also vaguely reminded him that if Luna uses this power in the future, then the Divine Bird Cult will definitely reach a monopoly in the Kingdom of Tarun, and there will be no place for the Order Sect to stand at that time.
So even if Anthony isn't sure Luna is a demon outsider right now, he can't risk the glory of the Order - the sacrifice is worth it for the sake of the Holy Maiden. This is what Anthony has always been thinking about, not to mention that the other party is a pagan holy son, even if one day he finds himself in the hindrance to the development of the order, he will sacrifice himself for the sake of his faith.
"How did she end up in your hands?" Lin Qiu heard Bishop Anthony's words as soon as he returned.
As soon as he placed Lia and the others in Lilith, Lilith was surprisingly very speculative with White on the topic of monsters, and after seeing that several people quickly integrated into the joyful atmosphere of the banquet, Lin Qiu immediately ran back to deal with business. He wasn't in the mood to enjoy the banquet right now, and when this matter was over, it wouldn't be too late for him to party for another two or three days.
"Who is this?" Anthony was a little unhappy in his heart, but it was not easy to show it in front of Elisa.
Alyssa thought for a moment and said, "This is an important object of investigation for the Inquisition. ”
This is not a lie, with Lin Qiu's current ability, it is enough to join the Judgment Army. She planned to wait for Lin Qiu to graduate and recommend him to the Inquisition Army for some training—that army was the cradle of good knights.
Anthony obviously understood what Alyssa's words meant, and his attitude towards Lin Qiu was also respectful. Any knight of the Inquisition deserves respect.
"When did this happen?" Lin Qiu winked at Alyssa in surprise.
"Just now. Alyssa seemed to be in a very happy mood, not knowing whether she was infected by the atmosphere of the banquet or simply happy with the decision.
Anthony touched his beard, and since this kid was a fellow of the church in the future, it didn't hurt to answer his question: "It was Captain Ziegler's men who sent him." ”
"Whose subordinates?" Although Lin Qiu had long felt that there was something wrong with Captain Ziegler, he didn't expect him to act so openly: "Are you talking about Salfin or Ziegler?"
Anthony was also confused by Lin Qiu.
Salfin was a shrewd-looking young man and Ziegler was a rugged middle-aged man, and he could tell the difference: "Well, that's the guy over there." ”
Lin Qiu followed Anthony's line of sight and suddenly saw Ziegler, who was a little restless.
He really couldn't understand that this Ziegler had sneaked around in such a big circle, and even the Silent Rose was involved in him, and in the end, coming to such a point was equivalent to admitting that he had done the attack that night. Because this answer was too simple, Lin Qiu instead felt that someone was framing Ziegler.
Of course, Ziegler can't be blamed for this, he was not a strategist in the first place, and the person who gave the advice was always Issai Hawog, who only told him at that time to "try to hand over that little girl to Anthony, and then inform the followers of the Divine Bird Cult about it, causing a conflict between the two sides." Ziegler was still immersed in the joy of bringing down Salfin, so he turned to Sister Nataya.
And Isai never dreamed that he didn't explain the details of this one place, and Ziegler, a reckless man, personally sold himself.
Another surprise to the two of them was that Bishop Anthony, who had always been known for his arrogance and stubbornness, actually chatted with Alyssa and Lin Qiu respectfully - you must know that this stubborn old man was a character who once did not even give King Ryan face, and every time Bishop Anthony said a word, Ziegler's face became more and more ugly.
Something went wrong. And that old fox of Issai Hayvog actually slipped away!
Moll Powell, who was hit by him, has been back for a while, but Isai has not been seen for a long time.
"Call Ziegler. Lin Qiu felt the need to let these two people have a good confrontation.
"No need!" Coria appeared in the venue at some point, and her appearance immediately caused a commotion among the guests. Most of the people who can come here have their own sources of information, not to mention the upheaval that happened in the inner city last night, not only did the Assassins attack Empress Ria during the banquet, but even Coria's manor was not spared.
When they saw Julius and his men in the banquet hall, they thought Corria wouldn't be there today.
Coria, who broke into the banquet hall, looked dusty, she was not wearing a banquet custom-made evening dress, but a light armor of the captain of the kingdom army, she glared at Captain Ziegler viciously, and with a wave of her right hand, several kingdom soldiers forced Ziegler under her instructions.
"Captain Ziegler, I arrest you on multiple charges of assassinating the Empress, assaulting and blaming Captain Salfin, and more!"
As soon as these words came out, the main hall suddenly fell silent.
Ke Liya hurriedly walked to Lin Qiu and the others: "Salfinn is awake. ”
With that, she looked relieved.
