Chapter 666: Rejoice
Although St. Paul has left, Pope San Francisco is still discussing the coronation with Leo. Because of Leo's ability, Pope San Francisco attached great importance to his opinion, and he hoped that Leo could help to learn more.
In fact, for a series of coping arrangements of the Church of Light, not to mention Leo, even Feng Xifan and Immorton behind him were a little disdainful. These people from the Church of Light are so arrogant that they really think that they are the most powerful on the continent, and they don't pay attention to the conspiracy of the Dark Council and the Gray Bone Sect at all.
Although this is the arrogant and arrogant mentality that the Church of Light has cultivated in the countless pursuit and suppression of the two dark sects for thousands of years, as the Pope of the Church, it has to be explained that the arrogant atmosphere of the entire Church of Light is really too much.
Leo sighed secretly in his heart, no wonder the countries on the continent always looked both afraid and disdainful when they mentioned the Church of Light, such a Sect of Light is now Leo can accept it, but even so, Leo is secretly praying in his heart that this Church of Light will not be a pig teammate.
Of the problems that St. Paul had mentioned earlier, the army of the undead of the Grey Bone Sect that worried him the most was the least of Leo. Due to the relationship between attributes, the Light Divine Technique is tantamount to the effect of concentrated sulfuric acid for the undead, as long as there is no problem with the internal stability of the Bright Church, coupled with the deep heritage of the church, there is no need to worry about those undead at all. Besides, even if the Church of Light really can't stand it, Leo still has Immorton by his side, the high priest who has specialized in the Black Sutra of the Dead for thousands of years, and he is not afraid that the Gray Bone Sect will turn against the sky.
While Leo was talking with the Pope, in the embassy area of the Holy City of Light, Princess Sophia was lying bored at the window, resting her arms on the windowsill, holding her cheeks with her palms, looking at the towering holy mountain and the incomparably eye-catching holy light not far away.
"Well, I don't know if Archduke Leo and Sister Sidney are here, why are they walking so slowly! I don't think they will be able to catch up with this coronation? They won't really have to go on a tour, will they? Oh! I envy them!" Princess Sophia muttered quietly, and it was clear that she longed for the kind of trip that she said she could stop and go.
Don't look at Princess Sophia's usual intelligence, whether it is wisdom or scheming, she is no less than an old official who has been in politics for many years, but after all, she is a young girl, and she also has infinite longing for those romantic things in her heart.
At this moment, a group of knights of light suddenly galloped across the avenue outside the embassy area, and many priests and bishops holding crosses and scriptures also appeared in a hurry on the street, which made Princess Sophia's heart suddenly tighten, and her intuition told her that something must be wrong.
"Sprint! Sprint!" Princess Sophia hurriedly called the chief royal knight in charge of the guard, and told him to send some nimble knights out in disguise to find out the news.
At the same time, Princess Sophia also changed into her formal clothes as quickly as possible and came to the public conference room in the embassy area, where envoys from many countries had gathered. Obviously, the knights within the Sect of Light suddenly mobilized, and this situation made everyone feel a little ominous in their hearts.
The envoys continued to discuss the current situation in the huge conference room, and if it were not for the beautiful picture that the Speaker of the Dark Council had painted for everyone after the success of the matter, I am afraid that someone might have been ready to withdraw by now.
In the midst of all these opinions, Cardinal Abraham, accompanied by several close bishops, entered the conference room and strode up to the presiding table.
"Everyone, please be quiet!" Cardinal Abraham said in a loud voice, waiting until the discussion in the conference room slowly subsided before he continued: "Cardinal St. Paul suddenly mobilized a large number of Knights of Light in the name of the Pope just now, but his purpose is to strengthen the external defense of the Holy City. It is said that the army of the undead of the Gray Bone Sect is about to fight, and the church is strengthening the city defense this time, not against us, please rest assured!"
Abraham's words relieved the worried envoys almost simultaneously, and a breath of exhalation rang out in the conference room.
"It's okay! I'm going to say it's going to work this time!"
"That's good, that's good, as long as we don't expose our purpose in advance, we still have a chance to succeed!"
Looking at the envoys of various countries who relaxed and rejoiced, Princess Sophia subconsciously thought that this might not be the case. This time, the coronation may not seem to be as smooth as everyone thinks.
"It's still Leo who is smart, it looks like he didn't come to this troubled water at all!" Princess Sophia looked at Leo, who had never appeared in the conference room, and couldn't help but complain in her heart.
"What should I do next? It seems that the Church of Light has clearly been on guard, and if you follow these guys who can't see the situation clearly, you may not even be able to get out of the gate of the Holy City of Light!
But that's it, and it's useless to regret it now. Princess Sophia was eager to hurry back to her room, cover her head and sleep hard, and when she woke up, the coronation might have passed. Unfortunately, before Princess Sophia could walk back to her room, she was stopped by the Knight Captain Sprint.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, our knights just went out in disguise to investigate, although those knights of light are heading towards the outer city wall, but in fact they have not gone far at all, except for the road in the direction of the holy mountain, all other roads outside have been blocked. It looks like this time the Church of Light is really ready for anything. ”
Speaking of this, Captain Sprint pointed to the conference room very covertly: "Maybe the Church of Light already knows about their plot, and these knights are obviously guarding against the embassy district!"
Sprint's words once again confirmed Princess Sophia's speculation, which made Princess Sophia's worries obvious. The frowning eyebrows made the Knight of Sprint feel a stir in his heart, and he took the initiative to come over and say to the princess: "Do you want to inform the envoys of various countries? at least we should gather everyone's strength to deal with the Church of Light together!"
Princess Sophia gave Sprint a blank look without any anger: "Get out of here with your bad idea, don't you think the Sect of Light has no excuse to deal with us?"
