Chapter 242: Impeachment
Raphael frowned, Helen stayed with Glori, indeed and very dangerous, she could listen to St. Paul, that could also listen to others.
Finally, Raphael handed Helen to Lucia, gritted his teeth, and said, "You do it, I can't do it!"
Lucia took Helen, looked at Helen's quiet little face and slightly furrowed brow, and put her hand on Helen's neck.
"Trisy, I'm Helen, and we'll be the best sisters in the future, the kind that lives and dies together!" the little blonde girl stretched out her little white hand.
"Don't be stupid, Tricy, we've made the cut, but we have to keep it a secret, or we're likely to die early. Helen's turquoise eyes flashed with wit.
"Tricy, my dear, I found something interesting today, the body, can have a wonderful feeling! ”
"Trisy, be careful, ah!"
All kinds of past things kept flashing in Lucia's mind, and when the scene of Helen helping her block the sword appeared in her memory, her heart trembled, and she looked at Helen fixedly, her hands trembled, and she left Helen's neck and touched Helen's face.
Tears fell, and Lucia said, "My lord, I, I can't do it." ”
Putting Helen on the bed, with a few clicks, Lucia stripped Helen and said, "My lord, use Helen's method to control her, although this may not be very effective, but it is somewhat a limitation." ”
Raphael breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Lucia was not so ruthless as this, which made him feel very comfortable.
The snow-white petite body was revealed in front of him, and the plump and moving curves gently undulated, and the skin trembled a little because of the cold.
Raphael's hand caressed Helen's flat lower abdomen, feeling the texture of the trembling skin, crossing the undulating soft curves, and gently squeezing the soft spots.
With a roar, he pounced, and Helen was unconscious, her eyebrows furrowed, and she let out a soft moan.
After waking up, Helen only felt cold and fluttering, with a warm weight pressing on her, slippery, and a trace of pain.
After completely waking up from the daze, a strange sensation like a tide immediately flooded her body, and Helen immediately understood what was happening.
Relieving the pain with holy power, Helen hugged Raphael.
Lucia held Helen's mirror crystal in her hand, and said coldly on the side: "Helen, you are also the chosen knight, there is only your face in this mirror, not Raphael's, so, I only hope that you can follow His Highness well in the future, we are still good sisters, and the mirror image will be placed in Raphael." ”
In fact, Lucia didn't leave any mirror image at all, she just canceled the mirror image in the crystal, because she didn't think Helen dared to take a risk, and it wouldn't do Raphael any good if this kind of mirror image was kept.
The powerful holy power made the pain on Helen's body gone, she nodded in confusion, her hair was thrown up, and her petite body was like a boat tossed in the sea under Raphael's fiddling.
After a while, she actually hugged Raphael softly and said, "Raphael, I like you." ”
Raphael kissed Helen's body in amazement, didn't this girl always look at herself unpleasantly?
After thinking about it, I realized that Helen's reaction was not strange. This girl is not too loyal to Ge Luoli, indeed, it should be impossible to see that she is not pleasing to the eye, she usually stares at herself, and she speaks very politely, probably pretending.
In fact, there is another reason, as adult women, Helen and Lucia will of course have thoughts, but due to their identity, they will not try to imagine feelings, at most they will only imagine men, and the only man worth imagining is Raphael.
As for Luo Fei, in their opinion, as long as Gloria is sure of Raphael, Luo Fei will eventually disappear and be ruthlessly swept into a category that is not worth imagining.
When they thought about it, they naturally had the shadow of Raphael in their hearts.
Raphael frowned and said, "I wanted to kill you, but it was Lucia who begged me to let you go." ”
Helen bit her lip, gasped, and said, "It doesn't make a difference, if I control you, I can still use it as a threat, and now, St. Paul will not let me go." ”
Raphael said, "You said there was Gina?"
Helen said: "Yes, she is St. Paul's plaything, hooked up with Oro, but she seems to admire St. Paul a little. ”
Lucia suddenly had a white flame on her body, flashed to the door, opened the door and pulled a person in, it was Gina.
Gina waited outside for too long, panicked, and couldn't help but go upstairs to investigate, you know, now Raphael is the chief referee, if Helen doesn't succeed, then she will die if she offends Raphael.
After being caught by Lucia, Gina didn't dare to use the slightest energy, and was dragged into the room.
"Don't kill me!" Gina cried out in horror as she fell to her knees, "I don't admire St. Paul, my God! ”
Helen was already paralyzed in Raphael's arms, Raphael stroked Helen's hair, and said, "Forget it, you all have to do it, Helen, you take Gina to hide for a while, and wait for the end of the Holy Light Ceremony,"
Gina said fearfully: "Even if St. Paul fails, even if he abdicates, he has no problem holding up a cardinal archbishop, and we will still die." ”
Lucia grabbed Gina and slapped her palm, "It seems that you will still betray us." ”
Gina's tears burst into her eyes, and she cried, "You are all bastards, you all beat me! I'm just a little priest, what can I betray you, don't you understand your position, St. Paul's position? Kill me, I don't want to live." Gross!"
Lying on the ground, Gina retched.
Lucia grimaced and said, "Pretending to be something, I didn't hit you in the stomach." ”
Gina retched a few times, calmed down, her eyes dodged, and she said in a panic: "I was wrong, I was really wrong, I promise to follow Helen obediently, don't kill me." ”
Raphael thought of some of the symptoms of Lady Cessia's pregnancy in the village, looked at Gina in surprise, grabbed Gina's little hand, and said, "You actually have a child in São Paulo?"
Gina trembled all over and cried, "No, my lord, I'm just a little unwell lately!"
Raphael walked up to Gina, pinched Gina's chin, and said, "São Paulo is powerful, and the holy power is overused, it is difficult to have children, do you have other men?"
Helen got up and said, "Absolutely impossible, Gina has no other chance to contact a man, unless it is Luo Fei, but Luo Fei definitely didn't touch her." ”
Gina collapsed on the ground, her eyes glazed over, tears kept falling, and she murmured: "Raphael, let me go, I took care of Nicos in Oro Prison, I have no relationship with São Paulo, and the child I gave birth to has nothing to do with him." ”
Raphael never thought of killing Gina, he was like this, others who had a little bit of dedication to him would be remembered, he sighed lightly, and said: "Helen, you and Gina tell Gloria the truth, and tell her why Lucia betrayed, I think she will be willing to protect you." ”
Gina's face turned pale and said, "Your Highness will kill me, definitely, definitely." ”
Helen gritted her teeth and said: "Okay, bet, if His Highness is really so ruthless, then Gina and I will not die unjustly, if His Highness still cares about all his feelings, then I will serve His Highness wholeheartedly from now on, Gina, it's useless for us to hide, and that kind of talk is not human!"
Gina bit her lip and finally nodded.
In the early spring morning light, the clergy strolled towards the conference hall.
Their demeanor seemed to be peaceful and reverent, but the tense array of temple guards around the conference hall was out of place, and anyone could feel the tension of the situation.
Raphael helped Grasius towards the conference hall.
With his head bowed, Glasius murmured reverently, as if he was still whispering helplessness and burning with memories.
Grasius's demeanor changed completely, and Raphael always felt that there was a sense of sacredness, but he didn't ask Grasius.
Originally, this meeting would have been stopped for a longer time due to the death of the Captain of the Templar and the Captain of the Knights, because the Captain of the Legion and the Captain of the Knights were originally elected by the Council of High Clergy, but St. Paul was desperately delayed, and these leaders of the Templars were selected for a winter, and it was amazing that the winter had passed, and none of them were elected.
Later, Pharyus finally came up with a plan and claimed at the Council of High Clergy that it could be selected at the Assembly, and the majority agreed.
The rule of the general assembly is that if the clergy present are all unanimous, they only need to write it down in the memorandum of the meeting, and it is considered that a resolution has been made, and there is no need to vote again. However, voting is required to elect or remove priesthood and priesthood.
In the open space in the conference hall, there is a row of tables with red ballot boxes, and finally the representatives of all parties will jointly send people to supervise the counting of votes and decide the outcome of each matter.
So, at the conference, it was decided that this was an opportunity for everyone, how could they disagree? It was not about who had more senior personnel, but who had more subordinates.
It is precisely because of this voting method that various forces will spend money to pull people, not only to have more military support.
Raphael, still with a referee in a robe, entered the conference hall and sat down on the head of the court.
In the conference hall, there was silence, and all parties were mentally prepared for the intensity of this meeting.
Before the meeting had even begun, Joyla had his men take out stacks of papers and distribute them to each of the priests present, who were not quick to move, except that they put St. Paul's men last.
São Paulo frowned, he wanted to know what was written on the piece of paper that Joyla had sent, but the attendees had already gathered, and he could only announce the opening of the meeting.
As soon as his words fell, Joyla said in a loud voice: "Our holy church, there is such a thing as indulgences, and there is evidence that this is initiated by His Majesty himself, I have received magic summons from all over the world, and indulgences have been spreading, not only in the Church Country, but also in other empires. ”
St. Paul interrupted: "This is an oracle that the church will pray for the blessing and atonement of the sins of these devout believers!" ”
Aris sneered, "The oracle that Your Majesty said, we ascetics don't know. ”
St. Paul said angrily: "Cardinal Aristine, do you dare to question the oracle?"
Aris said calmly: "What is there to dare to do? There is no ceremony, there is no ascetic priest present, it is not in accordance with the canon, so it is not that we are disrespectful, according to the regulations, such an oracle is not recognized, this is the doctrine set by the Supreme God." ”
Joyla said solemnly, "I doubt it too!"
Faleus had already torn his face with St. Paul, and said the same: "Question, ask Cardinal Joyla to continue." ”
Glasius actually said: "Question." ”
Raphael couldn't help but look at Grasius' calm face, a little strange how his position was so obvious.
The ascetics behind Gloria were all skeptical, but Gloria held back and did not express her opinion.
These ascetics look at the situation, there are already a lot of people who question it, and if they want to vote, it will definitely be St. Paul's defeat, so they will give up, and they will not force Glori, besides, they must always give the new cardinal a little face.
St. Paul gritted his teeth and said, "Cardinal Joyla, please continue." ”
Joyla said, "Since it is not an oracle, how can believers be exempted from sins when they buy a book of indulgence? Is the church a substitute for the will of the Most High God? This is blasphemy, very serious." I now formally impeach His Holiness Pope St. Paul and hope that His Majesty will step down from the office of Pope. ”
St. Paul exclaimed: "How can it be said to be blasphemous! We are only praying for the believers, and as for whether the Most High God will let these believers be saved by blasphemy, it is naturally the will of the Most High God!"
Joyla sneered and said, "It is a shameful act of collecting money from the finances of the church in all parts of the church, including the Holy Capital! The most important thing is that the people everywhere are complaining! According to reliable information, many clergy are even forcibly pushing the indulgence scroll! Collecting money in the name of the Most High God, Your Majesty, what is this not blasphemy?! Please abdicate Your Majesty!"
St. Paul thought that in the name of the Most High God would be enough to prevent this from being raptured, but he did not expect this to be the result, so he had to say: "This is my negligence, the indulgence is indeed inappropriate, but it cannot be said to be blasphemous, the indulgence will spread I did not expect, the original intention is only to give the good fortune to the devout, this will be the Holy See will make a financial report afterwards, if there is any misconduct in it, will be severely punished." ”
Aris took out a mirror magic circle and said: "Fellow believers, the affairs of the Orlan Empire have led to the loss of the state religion, the return of the Demon God Cult, and the atonement for the accumulation of wealth, and one more thing, that is, the mirror image I obtained, this mirror image was given to me by a stranger, and the content of it is an insult to our church, but it is also related to Your Majesty, please take a look." ”
The mirror magic circle in his hand was stimulated by the holy power, and a large magic circle mirror appeared in the steaming smoke.
In the mirror, a man wearing the robe of the deacon of the Church of the Stars, standing on the top of a snow-capped mountain, holding a holy staff in both hands, with mockery, said aloud: "Thank you to His Majesty St. Paul for selling us the broken staff in the Oro Collar, in order to express gratitude, this mirror image is hereby sent, and anyone is welcome to come to the blessed land to see this broken staff, hehehe." ”
After the man finished speaking, he showed the holy staff, which was golden in body, carved with mysterious textures, and had two white angel wings at the head, and anyone could see that this was the majestic holy staff.
As if to prove that this was not a fake, the Staff of Majesty was handed over to a Star Priest with a light physique.
The whole picture lit up in the mirror, and the star priest actually risked being discovered by the goddess of light to cast a famous light magic, the ruling.
After switching to the screen in the mirror, you can see that in the small valley opposite the two Star Priests, within a radius of less than 300 meters, the winter snow and plants have all turned to ashes, and even many protruding rocks have been shattered, and the ground has been completely turned into glass.
Needless to say, this is definitely an artifact, and the normal ruling is only within two hundred meters, and the power is not so great.
If this Star Priest is replaced by a Holy Light Priest, then the magic range may be larger, and the artifact can increase the power of the spell by sixty.
There was an immediate buzz in the conference hall.
St. Paul said disdainfully: "This is obviously slander, but since the scepter of majesty has fallen into the hands of the Church of the Stars, we must take it back for the glory of the Most High God." ”
Aris said: "No, this is not slander, the artifact must be together, because Gloria got three pieces, His Majesty also said on the day of the dragon clan's chaos, he has been planning the artifact, for this mirror, I specially investigated, only to find that His Majesty is indeed in the Oro Territory, so there is Your Majesty, I really can't believe that someone can take away the artifact." ”
This matter is about to involve herself, and Gloria hurriedly said coquettishly: "It is true that I only got three pieces, Cardinal Aris is just guessing." ”
Joyla said: "Whether it is speculation or not, Your Majesty has made many mistakes during his tenure as Pope, and the leaflets you have in your hands are not printed by me, but obtained from various city-states and villages near the Holy Capital, these are all accusations against Your Majesty by the parishioners, there are a total of one hundred and twenty counts, although such leaflets are in different formats, but the content is similar, and they are used in the entire Sect, and even in other empires, so I strongly request that Your Majesty retire." ”
These tracts were not all printed by Joyla, because in addition to the indictments, they also expounded some new doctrinal ideas, which were divided into two different sects, one for Joyla and the other for Aris.
It turned out to be those leaflets, St. Paul disdained them, and throughout the winter, he got a lot of money because of the indulgences, or relied on the right to issue the indulgences, and he actually attracted a lot of people, and the leaflets, of course, he also knew, but compared to the actual support, what was it? After successfully resisting the attack from within the church this time, it would be better to slowly manage the affairs of the church.
St. Paul's face twitched slightly, and said: "You all have a lot of opinions, but you don't want to think about the achievements I have made during my tenure, the Lane Empire, although the power of the Holy Light Church is very weak, but after all, it has developed. (To be continued.) )
