Chapter 665: Reminder

An alliance with Pritz would be beneficial to the Church of Light. Similarly, for Leo, an alliance with the Sect of Light is also a matter of his own benefit. The Bright Sect is an undeveloped place for the rest of the continent, because of the theocracy, the people only trust the church and are wary of other infidels, without the help of the church, it is impossible to carry out business here, but the Bright Sect is a vast and large country, and many cities and populations are like a big piece of fat for those merchants.

For so many years, because of the defensive attitude of the surrounding countries towards the Sect of Light, they have minimized contacts with the Sect to avoid being infiltrated by religion, resulting in the Sect of Light being basically cut off except for a few major knights who can enter and leave the country in the name of exterminating evil organizations. Now, if Leo can establish a commercial and trade cooperation with the Bright Sect, with the many resources produced by Pritz City, he will definitely be able to make the Principality of Pritz develop rapidly.

Of course, there will be advantages and disadvantages, and an alliance with the Bright Sect is tantamount to offending the countries that are temporarily united at the same time. However, this kind of offense is only temporary, if the Bright Sect really successfully survives this difficult time as Leo guessed, with the momentum of the Bright Sect and the Principality of Pritz, no country dares to take the initiative to jump out and find fault. Besides, Leo is not a person who is afraid of things, if anyone dares to use any brains against Pritz, I'm afraid he will still be desperate!

"Your Excellency, there is no problem with business cooperation, the Church of Light is also very eager to obtain the magical resources produced by the Dragon Mountains, and we can also provide Holy Water and Church Priests for Pritz, I believe we will have a very good cooperation." São Paulo's face was as if ice was melting, and a rare smile showed how much he longed for an alliance with Pritz.

"Haha, of course you're welcome!" Leo smiled with satisfaction on his handsome face. But then he went on to ask: "Then I don't know how the two crowns will deal with the various situations that will arise at this coronation ceremony, and what do we need to cooperate with?"

After listening to Leo's question, Pope San Francesco and St. Paul both had smiles on their faces, and they regained their solemn expressions before, and St. Paul took the initiative to answer: "There are four problems facing the church now, first of all, Cardinal Abraham and his henchmen will raise objections within the church about the legitimacy of my succession as pope, but you don't need to worry about this, after all, the bishops who are inclined to the pope's faction are the majority, and Cardinal Abraham will definitely not be able to make any waves." ”

"The second is the national legations, which, according to the information we have, will cooperate with Cardinal Abraham at the coronation ceremony to protest diplomatically against the Church of Light, thus forcing the Church to make a choice. This kind of diplomacy may be useful for secular countries, but the Church of Light is completely controlled by the Church, and the Pope who shepherds the people on behalf of the God of Light is sacred and cannot be desecrated. ”

"The same is true for the Temple Alliance led by the Dark Council, they can only raise the flag for Abraham at most, but it is impossible to do anything substantial, because once they do it against the Church of Light in the name of the Temple, it will undoubtedly trigger a divine war, and they will not be able to bear such a price. ”

"The only thing worth worrying about is the movement of the Gray Bone Sect......" Speaking of this, St. Paul's brows suddenly furrowed, and the tone in his words became a little colder: "According to the continuous reconnaissance of the Knights of Light, the Gray Bone Sect is probably pouring out of the nest this time, and they don't know where a large number of undead creatures have appeared, and they are heading straight for the Holy City of Light along the direction of the Sova Kingdom." However, I have ordered all the inhabitants of the cities, villages and towns along the route to relocate, and strive to annihilate them all at once on the basis of the Bright Holy City. ”

Although St. Paul's words were eloquent and full of confidence in the church, Leo still heard some problems in his words. Leo frowned slightly, glanced at São Paulo and said, "I know everything you said, but I also have a few questions. ”

Hearing Leo say this, São Paulo's eyelids jumped slightly, and there was a faint uneasiness in his heart. Pope San Francesco, who was sitting in the middle, also said to Leo with a solemn face: "If Your Excellency has any objections, please feel free to speak, we will definitely pay attention to it." ”

Leo nodded slightly, and said thoughtfully: "As for the matter of Cardinal Abraham, it is an internal affair of the church, and it is naturally handled by the two crowns, but as for the attitude towards the missions and temple priests of various countries, I think the church is too optimistic. I don't know if you have noticed, the escorts of the missions of various countries this time are all elite knights, although the number of accompanying knights of each country is not large, but so many countries have gathered, it is also a large combat force. Again, the temple guards should be the same problem, and I hope the church won't be careless. ”

Hearing Leo say this, São Paulo's eyes widened suddenly, and the look of surprise on his face could not be concealed. He really ignored this, the missions of dozens of countries, even if there were dozens of knights from one country, there were thousands of people gathered together, once they made a mess in the Holy City of Light, I am afraid that it would be really difficult for the church to deal with it when it was caught off guard, if you add those temple guards, maybe it would be possible to directly attack the Holy City from the inside.

Thinking of this, a cold sweat oozed from São Paulo's forehead, which was really his negligence. Even Pope San Francisco's face showed a look of fear, apparently thinking of the serious consequences of this loophole.

"Thanks to His Excellency the Grand Duke's reminder, otherwise the church may suffer a big loss this time!" St. Paul unabashedly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and did not care about being rude, and immediately apologized to Leo and left quickly. He was to gather the Church's forces as quickly as possible, and be ready to prevent the missions and temple guards from causing chaos.

"Archduke Pritz really deserves his reputation, and this thoughtfulness has really helped the church a lot, and after this coronation is over, the Church of Light will definitely repay the help of the Grand Duke!" Pope San Francesco smiled at Leo and expressed his gratitude.

"You're welcome, since we've reached an agreement to become an alliance, it's natural to think about our allies. Leo also bowed slightly and saluted Pope San Francisco.
