Count Filip couldn't help but laugh at the thought of becoming a duke in the future, and Ott also stood aside with a grim smile. If his father became a duke, then he helped so much, how could he have a title and a fief.

Storm Castle looks like a good place, and in the future, he will replace Duke and become the lord of Storm Castle. Moreover, absorbing the power of Storm Castle and the support of Takayama Castle, Ultra feels that he can resist the attack of winter monsters, so Storm Castle is a Jedi for others, but it is a blessed land for himself!

After the discussion, Count Fili immediately went to find Ole and said that he would join the crusade against Stormcastle, and that the Alpine Army was willing to assist the Holy See Army.

Hearing Count Filip say this, Archbishop Auray didn't think much about it, he didn't know that porcelain sold these riches. For the Holy See does not involve much trade and commerce except tithes and masses, except for the sake of transcendence, and even if he knew it, he would not have much interest in it.

Of course, Count Filip's idea of fishing in troubled waters, Ole can know with his ass. However, remembering that Alpine City is now responsible for the logistics of the entire Holy See Army, and the Storm Army is said to have several thousand people, plus the castle's insistence, if he does not have enough troops, he may also have to recruit the army of Alpine City, so Archbishop Auray readily agreed to Count Philip's suggestion, and the Alpine Army will go to Storm Castle together.

However, before the official expedition, Archbishop Auray still sent a priest deacon to Stormcastle to convey the decree of the Holy See, if Duke is willing to open the city to accept the inspection and reorganization of the Holy See army, and confess all the heresies of witches and dark witches, Oreh can spare his life.

After all, Ole took a great risk in this crusade, and it was a trivial matter not to report to the French Empire, and he also violated the cardinal's decree, which was a felony to be judged by the heavens. So in a sense, he is not particularly willing to meet each other in arms, causing huge casualties.

This time, the priest deacon he sent was Bishop Will of Alpine City, who would lead the Inquisition Friars to quickly go to Storm Castle under the protection of the Teutonic knights.

After hearing that Archbishop Ole had sent a jury to Stormcastle, Ott immediately asked to see the archbishop, hoping to join the jury. Ott's reasoning is that he is very familiar with Stormcastle and can quickly see Duke's lies.

For this request, Archbishop Auray also casually agreed, and the Inquisition went through the motions, whether there was evidence or not, whether Duke admitted it or not, the result was that Duke was doomed to be guilty, Storm Castle must be searched by the Holy See Army, and it doesn't matter if there is one more person or one less.

But for Ott, it was extremely exciting, because he wanted to see Duke wagging his tail and begging in front of him, which is also the state that the lords of the continent will almost show when facing the conquest of the Holy See.

"When your duke's father can't support you, you're nothing!" Ott muttered, following Will, the priest, with a grim face, heading in the direction of Stormcastle.

In the Storm Castle Council Hall, Kasmai walked in with a painful face, looked at Duke on the first seat and said, "Lord Lord, a magic message has been sent from the Church of Alpine City, and Archbishop Auray has sent a Inquisition and will arrive at Storm Castle soon." The deacon of the trial was Bishop Will of Alpine City, and he was escorted by the Teutonic knights, and it seems that the magical message to the cardinal did not work. ”

"Ole, is he disobedient?" said Duke, who was a little surprised, he didn't expect Ole to be so resolute.

"Yes, it should be, but the cardinal didn't give me a magical message, and it seems that Lord Leonard is also dealing with this matter urgently. However, according to the current trend, it is a bit too late. ”

"If it's too late, prepare to fight, it's impossible to catch it with your hands tied. ”

Duke actually replied with a smile at this time, maybe it was really this moment, but he didn't have much pressure.

"Then Archbishop Auray ordered me to go to the jury, and did he still carry it out?"

Kasmai's current identity is still the bishop of Stormcastle, because the Holy See still can't believe that the bishop of the Holy See has completely betrayed. And they didn't think that Duke was not seduced by the Dark Witch Society, so he colluded with the witch.

On the contrary, Duke himself is the biggest heretic, and he actively recruits dark mages and witches. Maybe it's because these things are too sensational for the Holy See, and they didn't expect that there would be a lord with an abnormal mind on the mainland, otherwise they wouldn't have sent any Inquisition, but directly purified the Light Army.

"Execution, why not execution, the Holy See Army is now in vain, and you are still afraid of a small jury?"

"I see!" Castle replied through gritted teeth, it seemed that this time he was completely on the thief ship. Storm Castle is a place where Castle has not wanted to transfer out early since his first day as bishop, but he did not expect that he would choose to live and die with Storm Castle in the end.

The arrival of the Inquisition marks the imminent arrival of the Army of Light. At this stage, Storm Castle began to implement the highest state of combat readiness, completely abandoning the garrisons and garrisons of the hydro factory, storm town, mines, etc., plus the dwarven legions. With the exception of a few sentinels, almost all of them entered Stormfort.

At the same time, the news of the attack of the Holy See army spread completely, causing a great panic among the people of Stormcastle. According to the data obtained by Duke, more than 10,000 of the 50,000 displaced people in Storm New City have chosen to flee, and this number is still on the rise, and it is estimated that it will reach a peak after the war.

Not only the displaced people of Storm Castle New Town, but even the more than 10,000 citizens who live in Storm Castle itself, there are thousands of people who choose to leave the city at this time. Duke did not stop these people from leaving, after all, many people may not flinch in the face of the ice demon attack, but in the face of the Holy See they believe in, they still can't change the concept that has been ingrained for so many years.

Although more than 1,000 people left, the majority chose to stay. Especially in the Storm Army, less than a hundred people chose to be deserters, and the vast majority of them were recruited from behind.

Duke was very pleased with this, more than half a year of new-style army training and ideological transformation was not without effect, at least the storm army had enough sense of comrades, and they would live and die together.
