"Bell"

The sound of a bell rang in the southern part of the Gainesborer Empire, and a massive city appeared in front of me.

Countless people in red robes showed pious eyes one by one and walked towards the city gate.

The gates slammed open, and Eustace galloped toward the place with his group.

"Welcome Archbishop," shouted the soldiers on both sides of the gates and the clergy of the Vulcan Church at Eustace.

Eustace looked around at them and asked, "What happened in the parish during my absence?"

"Except for the war spreading in the Cloud Sect, everything else is business as usual," one of the four middle-aged men standing at the front slowly replied to Eustace.

Listening to this reply, Eustace showed a look of displeasure: "The war is gradually spreading?"

"The archbishop, the four of us have discussed that the bishop of the Diocese of Cloud Mist must take office immediately. Put pressure on the Southern Burlingame Empire to quell this senseless war," replied Eustace.

Another person showed an indignant look, and his tone was a little intense: "The territory of the four empires of my human race is divided by the four crowns, and it is sacred and indivisible. The Burlingame Empire frequently invaded our territory northward, and our subordinates thought that we, the Vulcan Church, should give them the strongest counterattack."

"The main reason is that the Bishop of the Cloud District is vacant, which gives the Burlingame Empire a chance," one said to Eustace.

Eustace looked embarrassed: "The four crowns have joined forces to issue an oracle forbidding the church to participate in secular wars, and we can't justifiably do it."

"Archbishop, but as far as we know, the Church of the Water God has been secretly attacking frequently, which has caused our Southern Legion to be defeated again and again," the man who spoke at the beginning said to Eustace.

As soon as this statement came out, all the clergy were indignant, but because of their humble position. So I can only bury my eyes in my heart, revealing a pair of red eyes.

Eustace sighed: "Speaking of which, it is because the bishop of the Diocese of Cloud Mist has always been in a state of vacancy, which has given us a lot less room to move."

"This time, the archbishop went to the imperial capital to report on his duties, I wonder what His Majesty the Pope will do?" one of them asked Eustace, and countless expectant eyes looked at him at the same time.

Eustace shook his head: "What can His Majesty the Pope do, this matter has been exploited by the Water God Church, we have nothing to say"

"The only thing that can be done now is to elect a bishop of the Diocese of Cloud as soon as possible," Eustace said to the crowd.

After a slight pause, his tone suddenly became stern: "Everyone, it's time to sacrifice yourself for my lord, and any of you have volunteered to go to the Cloud Mist Diocese to preside over the overall situation."

As soon as these words came out, the place fell silent for a moment.

Looking at everyone's reactions, Eustace's face sank.

"Archbishop Mingjian, I, and others already have our own dioceses, so it's really not suitable to go to the Cloud Diocesh to preside over the situation," the four middle-aged men standing at the front said to Eustace.

The clergy standing behind them quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look at Eustace's face.

The bishop of the Diocese of Cloud Mist seems to be a powerful feudal official, but it is notoriously mortal. The Burlingame Empire went north every year, and the pressure of being a bishop can be imagined.

Eustace watched everyone's reactions, only to feel a chill in his heart. The four bishops were unwilling to share the burden, and the missionaries below the bishop level were insufficient, and the southern diocese suddenly fell into a dead end.

But fortunately, this time I went back to report on my work and gained a big soldier, who just took it out to solve this crisis.

Although he thought of this, he could not say these words directly, but looked around at the four bishops standing at the front: "Bishop Barry Fromman"

"In" Barry Froman, who was standing on the upper left, bowed to Eustace in reply.

Eustace said to Barry Froman: "The parish of Saida, which you are in charge of, is the most powerful in our south, and it has also proved your strength."

"Archbishop, that's what I'm supposed to do," Barry Froman respectfully interrupted before Eustace could finish.

After a pause, Barry Froman continued to Eustace: "This year there has been a great famine in the diocese of Saida, and many people have fled, and it is too much to afford the praise of the archbishop."

Hearing this, Eustace's heart quickly cooled, and the smile on his face gradually decreased.

Looking at Eustace's cold face, the other three bishops glanced at each other, and one of them said respectfully: "The affairs of the archbishop and the cloud diocese still need to be considered in the long run."

"The situation is about to deteriorate, how do we think about it in the long run," Eustace said to the four, then looked around at all the clergy in the area.

Biting hard in the heart, he decided not to rub against them anymore and said loudly: "Armand Doherty"

"In" Armand, who was riding his warhorse, bowed behind Eustace and replied.

Countless eyes looked at Armand in unison, revealing puzzled and puzzled looks.

"In the name of the Southern Archbishop, I appoint you as the fifth bishop of my Southern Diocese, and then I can go to the Diocese of Cloud Mist to preside over the overall situation," Eustace commanded loudly to Armand.

Everyone was in an uproar for an instant, but thinking that the Cloud Mist Diocese was a big fire kang, he didn't show his overly strong hatred.

"Yes," Armand said to Eustace, but his heart was like a mirror. Although I haven't heard of this area, judging by their reactions, it's definitely not a good place.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Barry said to Eustace: "Dare to ask the archbishop, what is the origin of this Armand bishop?"

"Armand Doherty is a great warrior who has devoted himself to cultivation, and he is full of admiration for His Majesty the Vulcan, and when he was in the imperial capital, he joined me through the recommendation of Her Royal Highness the Princess in the southern diocese of the Vulcan Church," Eustace said to Barry.

The four bishops nodded at the same time: "Since it is the recommendation of Her Royal Highness the Princess, then Bishop Armand has no problem"

"It's just that Bishop Armand has just joined my southern diocese, and he is not very familiar with the specific affairs of the Diocese of Cloud, so I suggest sending an assistant for him," Barry said to Eustace, wishing that he would hand over this hot potato as soon as possible, lest it become a sword hanging over everyone's heads.

Eustace took in everyone's expressions, thinking of the battle situation in the Cloud Diocese, and he didn't rub shoulders with them: "Clarence"

A cavalryman with a heavy sword on his back approached from behind Eustace and bowed to him.

Eustace instructed Clarence, "From today onwards you are the chief of guard of Bishop Armand, bring ten of his elite warriors with him to the Church of the Mist."

"Yes," Clarence replied to Eustace, then urged the horse to walk behind Armand.

Watching Clarence leave, Eustace turned the direction of the war horse and looked at Armand: "Go to the Cloud Diocesh now, Clarence will tell you the specific things"

"Yes" Armand replied to Eustace, then turned the horse in a different direction and galloped away at Clarence's signal.

Looking at Armand's back, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Eustace towards the city.
