His Highness Randall's invitation was time-limited, and it was rude and unrealistic to greet a golden paladin as soon as he was summoned and left at a moment's notice, but meeting within 20 days was the deadline for this private meeting, and the sooner the guest went, the more they could pay homage to their host. The chief inquisitor Trigovar led a retinue of horned wolves, set out in the afternoon of the same day, and arrived at the Bronze Halberd City in the evening of the next day, where he stayed for one night, and visited the Nightingale Manor in the afternoon of the third day.

Two great knights of the Kingdom of Cambys, Viscount Alex and Earl Terrandon, greeted Trigoval, the chief inquisition, at the gate of the manor. The two sides exchanged greetings and salutes, and Alex went down to rest with the referee's entourage, while the Earl of Turlandon led Trigoval into the back garden of Nightingale Manor.

His Royal Highness Randall was training two unicorn sphinoids of different coat colors with a tall and cool female knight.

Trigovar usually lives in seclusion, sits at the headquarters of the Inquisition in the Bright Hills, and rarely participates in social gatherings, but he knows all of Randall's intimate lovers, including the three personal maids of little status.

This female knight with sleek eyebrows and amber eyes is Randall's lover, Gillian of the Chebman family. According to Trigovar's information, the Chebman family wants to make the second son who married with the Kite Castle the heir, and hopes that Gillian will take the initiative to leave the family and join the kingdom. This matter is not a secret, but Gillian is unaware of it, because His Royal Highness Randall loves her so much that even the Earl of Chebman and his wife dare not confess the reason to their eldest daughter, so as not to hurt her and anger the Earl of Goldeneye.

When he actually met Miss Gillian Chebman, Chief Judge Trigovar realized how close Randall was to her.

The famous Furious Wind Sword Saint wears a hunting outfit, black hair and black eyes, and has no obvious supernatural temperament, looking like a handsome young man with a good demeanor. He and Gillian met during the Ant Plague, when he was just an ordinary popular archer who barely even had a silver rank, so naturally he would not show dark gold eyes.

Now, there is a big gap between him and Gillian's realm, and keeping his black eyes can make Gillian feel happy.

His Royal Highness Randall was considerate and gentle, but Judge Trigovar was shocked.

He wouldn't be foolish enough to think that the black-haired, black-eyed Randall had lost the strength of a Sanctuary powerhouse, which only meant that Victor's control over power and bloodline had reached an unheard of level. Powerful transcendent beings are inherently supernatural, like a fire in the dark, bright and dazzling, able to attract followers and form a warning and deterrent to powerful enemies. Victor's ordinary posture and the strength of the Sanctuary make him extremely terrifying.

The realm is the freedom of the law and power. As a Golden Knight and a fourth-level paladin, Trigovar is confident that he can go head-to-head with the Fury Tempest Swordmaster, and maybe have a chance to win, at least not in a one-on-one battle. But the other party was able to hide his elemental perception and quietly approach and behead again, what kind of golden knight's semi-elementalization and paladin's holy healing technique didn't work, and he didn't even have room to struggle and fight back.

The gap between the realms of the two levels cannot be bridged by combat power or divine arts, and now I am afraid that only the powerhouses of the legendary level can stand side by side with His Highness Randall...... Trigovar couldn't help but feel awe of the handsome young man with black hair and black eyes, and he was even more eager to become a legend.

Victor saw the chief referee and said a few words in his lover's ear, and Miss Chebman nodded, pulled the two unicorn war beasts, one gold and one silver, and walked to the back door of the garden.

Gillian left the garden, and Victor stepped forward to greet the Inquisition, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency Trigoval is coming sooner than I expected, and the dinner is not ready yet, so it's rude...... We might as well sit in the back garden of Nightingale Manor for a moment. ”

His Highness Randall's proposal was a gesture of closeness, and Trigovar smiled and said, "As you wish, Your Highness." ”

Victor returned to a fig tree and stretched out his hand to ask the chief judge to sit down on a chair beside the round table, and the attendant removed the used snack and replaced it with a plate of freshly picked wild fruits.

This fruit resembles a small apple, the taste is sour, the sweetness is very low, Victor can not understand the "wild" admired by the people of the earth world, the progress of agricultural technology is to turn the "wild" into more nutritious, safer, more delicious agricultural products, how can wild fruits compare with carefully cultivated fruits?

Victor adjusted his sense of taste, ate a wild fruit, wiped his hands with a silk scarf, and smiled at Trigovar: "Lord Lester, there are few foods that can make high-ranking knights feel particularly delicious, and high-ranking knights can taste any food. I'm not a high-ranking knight, I just hope that this wild fruit will satisfy the adults. ”

"Your Highness, I am deeply honored to be invited by the Fury Wind Sword Saint. The chief inquisitor smiled, the vulture's temperament was gone, paused, and continued: "I have brought a gift for Your Highness, which is a note from the ancestors of the Trigovar family on the Ant-Man and the Assyrian Empire, hoping to satisfy Your Highness. ”

Victor's eyes lit up, and he said, "This is exactly what I need...... A few years ago, His Excellency Constantine Trigovar, well, now His Highness....... told the story of Trigovar's ancestors in the Rose Manor in the Centaur Hills to destroy the Assyrian blood sacrifice to the evil gods, and that Trigovar was cursed by the evil gods and fell shortly after returning to the human realm. ”

"As far as I know, paladins have strong resistance to curses, and the semi-elemental Golden Knight is almost immune to curse-type sorcery, why did the ancestor of Trigovar fall early?"

Lester Trigovar replied, "To be precise, that ancestor died from the erosion of the Elemental Sea...... The curse of the evil god has always haunted him, and the magic of the high-ranking priest is helpless against the curse of the evil god. The Ancestor had to remain semi-elemental constantly, and he tried to storm the Legendary Realm, but failed due to a curse, and had to return to the origin of the world. ”

“...... It's a pity. Victor was silent for a moment and said, "The power of the evil god directly affects the Golden Knight, which is very rare. I believe he paid a great price, but did he fall because of the destruction of the altar by the Trigovar ancestors?"

Trigovar thought for a moment and said after deliberation: "There should be no fall, at least there is no record of the fall of the evil god in history...... My lord has only changed the laws of the world, severing the close connection between the evil gods and the wizards, making their communication intermittent, and a whisper may be divided into several paragraphs, and it will take more than ten years to be complete. However, the family ancestors destroyed the Assyrian altar, and the demonic god's connection to the real world was severely weakened. ”

"The ancestors affirmed this. He said firmly.

Is there a difference in time scale? This is indeed the most effective means of hindering communication between evil gods and wizards...... Victor mused, nodded, and said with a smile, "Lord Lester knows a lot about wizards?"

Trigovar had been prepared for this for a long time, and said calmly: "Your Highness is a top-notch transcendent, and if you understand some of the mysteries of the laws of the world, you should be able to understand the relationship between the Inquisition and wizards. It is more realistic for us to control wizards than to purify them. Of course, this kind of thing cannot be made public, and although all mortals with normal intelligence are smart, the people must be stupid, and fools will always pull down the wisdom of the whole group. ”

"If the people accept the shaman, and the shaman openly preaches the teachings of the evil gods, the consequences will be dire. ”

Victor clapped his hands and praised: "What a wise saying...... I swap two questions for two questions from adults, do you agree?"

Seeing the eyes of the Fury Wind Sword Saint turn dark gold, Trigovar was alert in his heart, and said with a solemn expression: "Your Highness, you can ask questions. ”

Victor pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Remember that we went to the northern wilderness to hunt manticores. When we found Deputy Captain Strange Testier and his scout team, the first thing Master Ron said when he saw the tamer was, "What about the Sky Surveyors?"

"The Owl Sky Surveyor is actually a wizard, and he's close to Master Ron, right?"

The Inquisitor smiled bitterly, "Your Highness's eyes are like torches, Master Ron was deeply impressed by the extraordinary wisdom you showed when tracking the scout team, he deliberately mentioned the Sky Surveyor in front of you, in fact, when the Sky Surveyor wizard fell, he had already sensed it. ”

"Ordinary clergy can only reach unimaginable heights with fanaticism, but they embrace the Light with all their hearts and minds, and are especially susceptible to assimilation by the Holy Power. Master Ron is a fanatic, and the Sky Surveyor wizard is actually a fanatic, and they are uncles and nephews. ”

"His original name, I don't want to mention it, so I'll call him Bishop Shadow...... When Bishop Shadow was young, he awakened his talent for witchcraft, and Ron was the captain of the Paladin in the Inquisition, and he couldn't accept that there was an evil person in his family, and he couldn't bear to watch his brother's young son be purified. The previous referee also didn't want Ron to shake his faith and be eaten by the Holy Light because of this incident. So, Ron came into contact with the presence of the Shadow Priest and re-established his faith. ”

Trigoval explained to Victor the origin of the Shadow Priests and their theology, and continued, "Ron's nephew has progressed very quickly, and he has succeeded his teacher as the new Shadow Bishop, who is responsible for tracking down the wild wizards scattered in the worldly realms as a Sky Surveyor, finding them, tricking them, and controlling them...... The Council of Shadows was formed. ”

"The core of the Council of Shadows is all fanatic wizards from the El Cult Kingdom, and the outer members are the wild wizards discovered by the Shadow Bishops...... According to the theology of the shadow priests, they take pride in serving the Most High, but their fanaticism makes some of them go too far, and their supernatural powers make them eager to gain the approval of the church, and they always want to come out and correct something...... The fanatics thought they had made a mistake in the church. ”

Victor smiled and said, "They are not pleasing to the eye and unwilling to be lonely. ”

Trigovar shook his head and smiled, "There are many things that you can hardly make sense of a fanatic...... Ron and Bishop Shadow have always been in touch, and he sympathizes with Pastor Shadow. Because the Shadow Bishop has Master Ron behind him, we haven't touched him...... Unexpectedly, he and some radicals took matters into their own hands and planned this war. Although these fanatical wizards deliberately led the centaurs to their deaths, they crossed the line. ”

"We believe that the rebels in the Shadow Priest are trying to use this war to connect some powerful forces from the outside world and help them realize their so-called ideals. Master Ron and the Shadow Bishop have fallen, and the Inquisition has purged the Shadow Priest of the Rebels and all the Wild Wizards of the Shadow Council. ”

"Master Ron, I actually want to contact His Highness on behalf of the Shadow Priest to enlist your support. ”

Victor asked quietly, "So, it's impossible for me to see the Shadow Bishop and the Shadow Speaker?"

Trigowal shook his head and said, "The Shadow Bishop is the Shadow Speaker, and he is dead. The Shadow Bishop of this generation has not yet been cultivated, and you really can't see him. ”

If the Shadow Speaker is dead, who is responsible for the attack on the church in Shuitao Town? Assuming that the Shadow Knight is not in the hands of the Inquisition, then the Shadow Speaker can only be explained by someone else...... Victor was full of doubts, thought for a moment and asked, "The second question, how is the papal lineage inherited now?"

Trigoval was a little embarrassed for a moment, the inheritance system of the papal line is a secret that the church prohibits talking about, since His Royal Highness Randall asked, he thought about it, and still said: "The matter of the papal line...... There is speculation from the outside world, and there is basically no big difference...... The Cardinal provided the Pope with young and beautiful priests to serve as lady-in-waiting, and as soon as they became pregnant, they were immediately taken up by the Cardinal, and the papal heirs were raised as orphans in the convent. When His Majesty the Pope fell, the Knights of Radiance selected one of his descendants to perform a ceremony to succeed to the Pope's throne. The Guardians of Light of the Trigovar House are responsible for protecting the new pope, and no other institution of the Church can interfere. ”

The Cardinals, the Monastery, the Knights of Light, and the Guardians of Light all participated, but the Pope could not even see his own children...... How could a Holy Spirit pastor be so miserable and do nothing?

Victor added: "We have speculation about the papal succession, but this is the first time we have heard about the details...... I promise Sylvia and I won't spread the word about it, because it's none of our business. I'm just wondering, if the Pope uses great prophecy to appoint an heir against the Church, how do you deal with it?"

"Your Highness, the Great Prophecy Technique is extraordinary, the Pope alone cannot perform the ceremony of the Great Prophecy, even if he casts the Great Prophecy Technique, the sixth-level priests of the Holy See will have a sense of it. Trigovar said with a smile.

The Great Prophecy Technique extracts the power of the Holy Power Pool, and the high-level clerics will indeed be touched...... In this way, it is impossible for the Pope to secretly perform great prophecy without concealing it from the Church...... Victor suspects that Nakhtigar is a Shadow Knight, and of course he will also suspect the Pope, but according to the description of Judge Trigovar, all the loopholes in the Pope's independent inheritance have been blocked, so the possibility of him being the Shadow Speaker is very small.

"It's your turn to ask. Victor shifted his thoughts and said lightly.

Trigovar asked directly, "Your Highness, what do you and Lady Sylvia want to exchange for rock bricks?"

Victor shook his head with a smile and said, "Whatever we want, I am reluctant to get involved in the dispute between Barcelius and Frederick...... Frankly, it is not worth it for me to settle the differences in the Sassan Empire at the cost of rock bricks. However, in order for someone to sign the food supply agreement, I can provide a suggestion to both sides, and as to whether they will agree or not, it is up to the northern lords to decide...... You can ask the next question. ”

His Royal Highness Randall's answer seemed to mean that Centaur Hills hadn't thought about what he wanted, which was also expected by Trigovar, and he didn't bother about it, and asked, "Your Highness, can the Trigovar family owe you a favor?"

Victor put away his smile and said, "I have no intention of interfering in the internal affairs of the church. Since it is a request from His Highness Trigovar, I can present my case to His Holiness the Pope. ”

Trigovar was overjoyed, stood up and saluted Victor as a knight of an ancient family, and said, "We, the Trigovar family, will not forget His Highness's help. ”

"Is Your Highness going to the El Sect lately?" asked Trigovar with a friendly smile.

"Yes, Sylvia has sent me a letter of invitation from His Majesty, and I'm going to go to El recently. Victor smiled and said:

"I heard that in May this year, the quadrennial Sol Alliance will be held in the Silver and White Tower...... I, a silver-white scholar, have just come to see the ancient Covenant of Thor. ”
