Chapter 4: Latent

The Inquisition attached great importance to the elimination of heresies, and sent two cardinals and six archbishops.

The two cardinal archbishops were the mid-term priesthood of Ziernos and Atolis, and Ziernos was older, so he was in charge of the operation.

According to Qi Ernuos's analysis and the intelligence of the court, Du Hongcheng and his party really pose little threat to them. Because, only Du Hongcheng, a monk who can match the cardinal, the cultivation of the dove is completely negligible, even if there is a cardinal hidden, he can deal with it. However, after all, they are going to the palace to assassinate them, so the preparation must be foolproof. This is a task personally arranged by the chief referee, and it must be completed beautifully!

According to their investigation, the palace inspected the interior very carefully, from morning to night, maintaining about ten groups of inspection teams at all times. However, the monks who inspected the inspection were generally low, mainly first-class monks, and about 10 second-class monks.

For Qi Ernuos and the others, this kind of inspection is almost non-existent! Du Hongcheng naturally understands this truth, these so-called escorts are used to act as a façade, and they are for the people in the city to see. This shows that the palace is tall and strict, and the real inspection still depends on themselves. Du Hongcheng's divine sense can be released once at will, and it can cover the entire corner of the palace.

In addition to patrols, there are also many open and secret sentinels in the palace, but these, like the above, will not have the slightest impact on several cardinals and archbishops.

According to the plan, Ziernos led the three archbishops to infiltrate the palace first, and Atolis led the three archbishops to attract frontal firepower, and it was best to separate Du Hongcheng and Gu Yan, so as to break them one by one and achieve the task, and the two parties agreed that if one of them succeeded, they would evacuate directly and leave the city of Jotel, without staying for cover. The remaining side, after the mission was successful, left from the other direction and fled into the city, where they hid. Such a scattered escape would also help several people escape, of course, for Zirenos and Atoris, evacuation? they never thought about it, after all, evacuation would mean danger, and they did not believe that there could be a threat to their existence in the palace!

The day after the plan is set. Qiernos and his three archbishops all disguised themselves as valets, and entered the palace in a carriage arranged in advance by the hotel, although they were constantly interrogated by the patrol guards along the way, but under the strong mental pressure of Qiernos, the guards could not interrogate anything at all, and most of them directly ignored it.

Inside the Royal Palace.

Du Hongcheng looked at the map on the table, his brows furrowed, what is the next step for the empire? There are two plans in front of him, and these days, the empire has repeatedly argued which of these two routes is more suitable.

One is to the province of Dicasilla, once this province is captured, then the entire southwest of the world will be in the possession of the empire!The other is to attack the port of Modeletos, once this port is captured, the empire's economic situation will be greatly improved, and the control of the sea will be greatly improved!

But the problem is that if you want to attack the province of Dikasilia, you need to pass through the Kumon Forest, which is full of poisonous miasma and strange beasts, and if you force your way through, you will have to suffer very huge casualties! If you want to pass safely, you can only take a detour, and once you make a detour, not only will the marching speed decrease, but also the battle line will be too long, increasing the possibility of being attacked.

As for the port of Modeletos, if you want to attack from the province of Natlin, you have to climb a 6,000-meter mountain, and there is no possibility of a detour.

It can be said that neither of the two roads in front of him is easy to walk, if you don't attack these two places, then the only thing in front of Du Hongcheng is to attack Fort Tigany head-on, which is one of the strongest defenses in the world, which is an impossible task in Du Hongcheng's opinion. Therefore, Du Hongcheng was troubled.

Gu Yu has no time to deal with these military affairs, she uses a large number of divine crystals every day to quickly recover the state, while Wang Nan is more to deal with the internal problems of the empire, although Dressry has made some suggestions to Du Hongcheng, but his main responsibility lies in the army of the undead, as for Zhu Diwen and Zhang Di, Du Hongcheng can't count on it, Qian Yangyang and Guo Haochen are still in Da Nao City, and the decision of the entire strategic event is in the hands of Du Hongcheng alone!

"Alas. Du Hongcheng sighed, stopped thinking for a while, and began to cultivate, his divine sense opened violently, and the primordial spirit began to slowly emerge in the sea of consciousness, he picked up a piece of divine crystal and slowly absorbed it.

"Huh?!" Du Hongcheng stopped cultivating in confusion.

There seemed to be a strange aura passing through his divine consciousness just now, what was it? Du Hongcheng's divine consciousness continued to be released, and this strange aura disturbed his mind for a while.

The divine sense is like Du Hongcheng's eyes, and wherever the divine sense goes, it is as if Du Hongcheng was present at the scene, Du Hongcheng silently sensed the several carriages in front of him. The strange aura came from here, but when Du Hongcheng's divine sense really enveloped here, this aura was hidden again, and I don't know if Du Hongcheng's investigation was discovered.

It seemed that the carriage was heading to the back of the palace, where the miscellaneous servants were supposed to live. Is there anything worth noting there?" Du Hongcheng was puzzled, and his divine sense continued to follow the carriage. After a short time, the carriage stopped, and from the middle carriage jumped four handymen, who went to the other carriages and began to load and unload the goods. This was originally very common, and the daily consumption in the palace often needed to be replenished, and it was normal to send a few handymen out to purchase.

It's just that Du Hongcheng faintly felt that these handymen brought him a strange feeling, but he had no way to verify this feeling. Therefore, it is best to wait and see what happens.

So, Du Hongcheng withdrew his consciousness and briefly explained the situation to Gu Yan.

The dove naturally comprehended the divine understanding, and during the practice, the divine consciousness was always vigilant.

After explaining to several patrol captains in the mansion, Du Hongcheng also began to practice after assigning a small part of his divine sense to monitor the miscellaneous servants.

During the practice, the day passed quickly, and for most of the guards and maids in the palace, it was time to eat. Although some people will continue to work during this period, they have been relatively slack.

That's the time!!

Ziernos ordered his men to prepare to make a move, and according to the division of labor, one of them was ready to kill the dove, while the Atolis side went to assassinate Du Hongcheng.

Taking advantage of this time, the three archbishops, led by the cardinal, continued to approach the palace room where the dove was located, and touched in little by little. They dressed up as valets, and ordinary people couldn't see any clues under the influence of their telekinesis.

The four of them stood respectfully, just like normal manservants, they were waiting, waiting quietly, waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity.
