Chapter Seventy-Three: Tacit Understanding

The main building of the Kaban house, the main hall on the first floor.

The spacious hall was in shambles, and the knights and soldiers of the church crowded the hall, and the rain kept sliding down them, making the ground wet.

There was even more blood mixed with the rain, and a round cashmere carpet dozens of feet square in the middle of the hall was dyed with exquisite patterns, becoming extremely ugly.

In addition to the thirteen people of Garong, more than two dozen members of the inner circle of the Kaban family were brought over.

A group of people gathered together tightly, their faces were gloomy, like little lambs surrounded by wolves, and their bodies trembled unconsciously.

Only Garong has endured wind and rain for a long time.

Forty years ago, when the army of the Delun Empire was crushed like a thunderbolt, the Kaban family was facing annihilation, and Garong personally participated in that one-life test, allowing the Kaban family to escape from the brink of life and death.

People who have experienced life and death are much calmer than these juniors.

He resisted the fear in his heart, and stood respectfully in front of Joe and Longinus.

"Young Master Qiao, all the things before, I hope you can understand, Fular is my youngest grandson, and I dote on him the most, so I did things that did not conform to my identity and were unseemly."

"If you have any demands, I will agree to them all."

With a smile, Ga Rongqiang bowed deeply to Qiao and apologized: "You...... I have no opinion on a number. In addition, from tonight onwards, the Kaban family will be the most reliable allies of the Ritu family. ”

Joe laughed dryly: "Master Garong, this is not a problem that money can solve. Heresy......"

Ga Rong straightened up and said to Qiao solemnly: "There may be unsuccessful clansmen in the Kaban family, colluding with some villains and bastards, and doing some illegal things, I will never deny this. But heresy...... No way! ”

Ga Rong's voice became extremely sharp: "Young Master Qiao, such a crime as heresy, my Kaban family, will never admit it. Your Excellency Longinus...... What do you think? The Kaban family has always had great respect for the Church, and we are devout believers......"

Garong's heart was in turmoil, and his heart seemed to be fried in a boiling oil pot, so uncomfortable that he wanted to vomit blood.

But he knew that at this moment he could not fall, he had to hold on to the end.

He had to figure out what was going on tonight.

If it was the witch of Garcyca who wanted to attack the Kaban family, then how did the church knight come out?

Ga Rong knew that tonight's incident, no matter which bastard in the clan provoked it, Ga Rong could admit all the charges of murder, arson, rebellion and treason.

It doesn't matter if you kill someone, set fire, rebel, or commit treason.

None of these crimes, which were explicitly stated in the various laws of the empire, could involve the entire Kaban family.

Even if it is a plot of treason?

The Kaban family is now also attached to the nobles of the imperial capital, and with the family background of the Kaban family, it is nothing more than breaking the fortune and avoiding disasters!

But 'heresy'!

It's going to kill the whole family.

The virtue of the Church is known to everyone in Metland - no matter how large a family is, as long as one person is a heretic, then everyone in the entire family will be neatly tied to the stake.

Garong has made the psychological preparation to pay a huge price.

bribe Joe and the five Imperial Major Generals at any cost, even if the cash in the family's small coffers is exhausted...... He could confess all the crimes recorded in the Imperial Code, but he would never admit to the charge of heresy.

Since it was the Imperial Army and the Church Knight who appeared together, and it was not the Church Knight who acted alone, this gave the Kaban family an opportunity to move and transfer.

Except for the charge of 'heresy', everything else can be temporarily recognized.

"You're not religious enough." Longinus is a very upright person at heart, after all, his IQ is there, except for some upright mantras instilled in the church since childhood, he is actually not very good at some high-sounding words.

"The Kaban family, in the whole port of Tulum, in terms of piety, you are ranked outside the twenty." Longinus glared at Garong angrily: "You are in the Council of Seven, but your piety is outside the twentieth...... You are very ungodly. ”

"We will be ten times more religious in the future than we were before." Garong instantly understood what Longinus meant.

He greeted the Archbishop of St. Hilde Cathedral for a while, and he had always heard that the Archbishop of Lorence had a small ledger in his hand, which recorded the total amount of money offered by the major families in Port Tulum every year.

I didn't expect it, it's true!

The dignified archbishop is as calculating as a street vendor...... In his heart, Ga Rong once again greeted all the female relatives of Archbishop Loren.

"Ten times." Ga Rong lowered his voice: "In the future, the Kaban family will be ten times more pious than before. ”

Longinus clicked his lips, his gaze becoming a little misty.

Ten times more religious?

It's not just Kim Mark...... And the delicate, lovely girls and ladies...... They will go to the confessional of the Holy Inquisition ten times as often?

Longinus's heart throbbed violently a few times, and then he quickly came back to his senses.

"Bastard! What do you think of your devotion to our Lord? Longinus was so angry that his face turned red, and he pulled out his heavy sword with a 'sonorous' sound, and slammed it on Garong's neck: "Damn heretic, what you just said is enough to prove that you are an evil heretic......"

Longinus suddenly woke up.

The Kaban family is indeed having an affair with the Corrupting Spirit, which is a fact that countless people have witnessed with their own eyes.

No matter how many gold marks they donate, no matter how many times their lovely, beautiful ladies go to the confessional to confess, they can't change that.

This is a damn heretical family, and Garong actually wants to corrupt the pious Longinus with a golden mark and a woman!

"Bring it on!" Joe beckoned.

Several soldiers and several church knights supervised each other, and escorted the girl who had caused the gray golden oak to mutate at the entrance of the Golden Anchor Club.

The girl was covered in water, and her face was pale from the downpour, and she was already on the verge of fainting, relying entirely on the support of the two soldiers, so she trembled like a dead person, and finally entered the hall on the first floor.

"No, no, no...... I'm not ......."

Cyril Rong Kaban, a descendant of the Caban family, had just turned eighteen years old, and in the Caban family, she was the most beautiful and open-minded woman in the Caban family, and she also had a great reputation in some circles in the port of Tulum.

"No, no, no, I'm not...... Grandpa Garong, I'm not a heretic, I'm not a heretic! Returning to the family's territory, Cyril was inexplicably a little more energetic, she glanced blankly at the group of clansmen standing in the middle of the hall, and then suddenly saw Garong.

"I'm not a heretic, Grandpa Garong...... I'm not. Cyril screamed hysterically, then became crying and collapsed to the ground: "I didn't do anything, I didn't do anything, how could I be a heretic?" ”

"Lord Longinus!" Garong raised his voice sharply: "Cyril, a pure, kind girl, she has never left the port of Tulum, she has grown up in front of our eyes since she was a child, how can she be a heretic?" ”

Longinus snorted coldly, and he took out the gray golden oak leaf, and a white light poured into the golden oak leaf from his hand.

The golden oak leaf flew up, spraying a faint rain of golden light, flying around the hall like a butterfly, and then stopped on the head of a young man in his thirties in the middle of the hall.

A golden rain of light enveloped the young man of the Kaban family, and then a thick gray mist rose behind him, and a pair of broken winged phantoms loomed in the gray mist, and a strange and distorted prayer incantation continued to come out of the void.

This strange prayer spell shook the air, distorted the light, and in the entire hall, everyone's vision was distorted and hallucinated, and all the furnishings were like melted rubber, constantly drooping down......

The whole hall, from the furnishings, to the building itself, to all the people in the hall, seemed to be melting, sinking, and sinking towards some terrible and ineffable place.

"Damn heretic!" Longinus let out a loud roar, breaking the strange atmosphere.

"Damn heretic!" The knights of the church in the hall roared in unison, and golden light poured out from their bodies, and above each of them was a golden oak phantom of varying size and light.

The golden light flew out like countless arrows of light, piercing the broken wings behind the young man, compressing the gray mist that appeared behind him to the extreme.

Ga Rong looked at the young man blankly, and his old face completely turned a miserable green.

His body trembled, his voice was hoarse, and it was easy to squeeze out an angry curse from his throat: "Fu De...... Family, family...... Where is the family not able to stand you...... You want to, you want to, you want to ......"

With a 'poof' sound, a mouthful of blood spurted out of Garong's mouth, and his originally upright body suddenly softened, and he sat on the ground with a 'bang'.

The evidence is conclusive and irrefutable.

Fu Del colluded with heresies, and his body was contaminated with a strong heretical atmosphere.

Even, he is not just colluding with heretics, the omen on his body indicates that he has even been favored by a terrible evil being, and the evil power produced by this favor is even enough to have a serious impact on the outside world.

Kaban's house, it's over!

All the members of the Kaban family will be neatly tied to the stake one day in the future, like the roasted bunting birds on the dinner table today......

Cyril hissed and screamed, "Grandpa Garong, it's not me, it's not me...... It was a few friends introduced by Brother Fu Del, and several extraordinary masters...... I'm just, I've just been playing with them for a few days...... I'm just, I'm just admiring them, I've slept with them a few times......"

Ga Rong took a deep breath, he spat out another mouthful of blood, his body shook, and he struggled to stand up.

He approached Joe and Longinus, grabbed Joe's and Longinus' arms with his left and right hands respectively, lowered his voice, and said with great difficulty: "If you can, the Caban family can pay any price......"

Ga Rong burst into tears: "Be kind...... Kaban Family ...... Any price can be paid. ”

Longinus sneered, dismissive of Garong's sadness and despair.

Qiao's eyes lit up: "Master Garong, how about cooperating with us first and catching those real heretics?" I'm talking about, the 'real' heresy......"

Longinus looked at Joe in confusion, what else is there to be a heresy that is 'real' and not 'real'?

Ga Rong's eyes suddenly lit up, and his spirit suddenly returned to his body.
