The Templars' attrition is not too great, after all, their attack power is weaker, and in the Temple of Light, there are more street fights.

Six of the nine captains died because they were also attending meetings in the inner sanctum, more than twenty of the more than sixty privy deacons died, and hundreds of archbishops died, because many people did not expect St. Paul to be so reckless, and even most of St. Paul's men thought that St. Paul was just posturing to oppress his opponents.

Fortunately, Raphael had long expected that St. Paul would use force to solve the problem, and the people of the Inquisition gathered together almost at the beginning to defend according to his orders, but they did not die much, and the three deputy inquisitors and the eight punishers were all alive, of course, this has something to do with the fact that the leaders of the Inquisition often fight, their strength may not be stronger than others, but their combat experience is much richer than that of ordinary clergy.

There was no need for fighting, and the clergy in the church actually ignored the grievances, and under the coordination of Joyla, they suddenly became harmonious, this incredible change, but Raphael knew the three flavors very well.

With so many people dead, there are definitely a lot of vacant interests for the church, and everyone sees the opportunity, so what is there to fight for?

Joyla even made a promise not to hold Raphael accountable this time.

This was proposed by Arris, and in the bloodied and crippled council hall, Aris hypocritically said: "The chief judge killed St. Paul, and he must give an account for the face of the Holy See to the outside world, of course, I am not saying that the chief judge is guilty, and there is no doubt that St. Paul is apostasy, but this cannot be publicized to the public, and the chief judge is asked to take on this obligation, and as for the reason, we will discuss it together." ”

Joyla's brows furrowed under the mask, and she said dissatisfiedly: "Cardinal Aris, I'll find another explanation, don't involve Raphael." ”

Alis smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I can't help it, the news of Raphael's killing of St. Paul will definitely get out, so it's better to ask the chief referee to take responsibility." ”

Raphael glanced at Gloria with a hint of resentment in the bright silver, and said, "I am willing to take responsibility." ”

Gloria ignored him, shook her head, and walked away with her men.

Joyla said: "Let's discuss it again, the next meeting will be held, and two cardinal archbishops will be elected, but there will be no cardinal archbishops in the inquisition in the future." ”

Aris was not in a hurry, and said, "It's fine." And he did the rites, and turned away.

Raphael glanced at Aris, and with his men, hurried after Glori.

Joela's lips under the mask were clenched, and there was a hint of annoyance in her emerald green eyes, staring at Raphael's back, and she scolded softly, "Bastard, am I not better than a chick?"

Surrounded by Joyla's cronies, she would be so careless.

After Raphael caught up with Glori, his men knew that the two men had something to say, and they consciously left the two of them for some distance, forming a circle of guards from afar.

In the circle, Raphael stared into Glori's eyes and said, "I'm sorry. ”

Gloria only glanced at him, then lowered her head and said, "Originally, I could not hate you, but I didn't expect you to kill him with your own hands, you can avenge your loved one, and it seems that I should do the same." I don't want to deceive myself anymore, I did have a little admiration for St. Paul since I was a child, he was always my father, and he treated me very well except for killing my mother, so... ”

São Paulo is dead, Glori's hatred of St. Paul is gone, and there is still a trace of love, right? Raphael said with a twitch in the corner of his eyes: "You say, I can accept anything." ”

Gloria clenched her fists, as if she had made up her mind, and said, "I will take revenge on you once, only once, and if I fail, St. Paul's will be a thing of the past." Succeeded, Raphael, dear, I will die with you, so, for my sake and for you, don't let me kill. ”

Raphael said firmly: "Okay, that's it, Glori, dear, leave your soul brand for me, you are going to die, maybe I can use the laws of the necromantic plane to find you! ”

Thinking of the existence of such a skeleton as the undead, Gloria suddenly shuddered, became angry again, glared at him and said, "Raphael, don't you want to be so unproductive, aren't you very smart? I don't want to die, and you are not allowed to die." Then she lowered her head and said, "However, I will do my best to deal with you." ”

Okay, you shouldn't let your beloved woman bear anything, Lao Tzu will bear it! Raphael frowned and said, "Okay, dear, I know you're very smart, it's not that you don't have confidence, just in case, come, I'll teach you the method." ”

Gloria hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "No, I will." ”

In fact, many mages will study spiritual things, and the people of the church are no exception, although people who do not have the talent of spiritual magic cannot learn necromancy, but most of them will learn some soul secret arts.

After receiving the soul imprint of Glori, Raphael hugged the somewhat weak Gloria and said, "Honey, let me go." ”

"No, Raphael, forgive me for my selfishness." ”

When Raphael saw Helen and Gina approaching, he handed Gloria to them and said, "Everyone has a selfish side, and so do I, otherwise I will only lose myself, my dear, I await your revenge." ”

Glori's eyes flashed with silver, and she said, "Raphael, maybe you will have trouble sleeping, because revenge is not too late for decades." ”

Raphael nodded, didn't say anything, and turned to leave.

Carrying the men of the Inquisition through the blood-stained Congress Hall Square and back to the small building of the Inquisition, Raphael began to deal with some of the aftermath of the Inquisition.

Joyla, however, went to the Papal Palace, and throughout the afternoon and evening the people came to the Papal Palace in a constant stream until late at night.

These people are above board and unabashedly express a strong desire to throw themselves into Joyla.

Joyla, of course, welcomed her and did not end the visit until late at night, but she did not sleep, she was in high spirits, and her emerald green eyes were always shining.

Pulling out a large drawing, Joyla had several of her cronies hang on the wall where the map of the continent had been hung.

The drawings are very large, taking up an entire wall, and the painting depicts a palace that is grander than the Temple of Light in the Holy Capital, the name of the palace is just Cairo Cathedral, and the whole small city-like palace is a huge fortress.

The outer walls of this fortress are fifty meters high, and the entire fortress is enclosed, relying on various lighting and ventilation structures to maintain the air and light inside the fortress, and all the outer walls and the entire flat roof are covered with arcane towers and magic towers twenty meters above the city wall.

On the top of a fortress the size of a small city, a huge square-like fortress sits a cathedral, surrounded by ninety-nine holy towers that rise 60 meters above the city walls.

In addition to attacking the defensive structures, the entire fortress roof has only gardens, fountains, and pools, and no dwellings.

Underneath the drawings are countless callouts and circle patterns.

The Temple of Light is still in the church, and Joyla doesn't want to change it, the cathedral on this drawing is her kingdom, and she doesn't even want this kingdom to take the shadow of a god.

Joira stared at the drawings.

One of his cronies smiled and said, "Your Majesty, if this city is built, it will probably be able to fight against the demon army." ”

Joyla nodded frequently and said like a little girl: "Yes, come and beat one by one, this is definitely better than St. Vid." ”

Although the Holy Capital is powerful, the overall defense is still human-oriented, unlike St. Vidde, where the magic towers make people feel invincible at a glance.

"Yes, Your Majesty, St. Vid and Cairo Cathedral are not at all comparable, and besides, this is definitely the tallest building on the continent. Oh, the Rainbow Tower doesn't count, it's by the mountain. ”

Joyla said: "We don't want fame, it doesn't matter if it's high or not. It's just designed to be stronger. It's a pity that a foundation was built... Although I became the Pope, I had more money at my disposal, but I always had to have some scruples, hey, I don't know how many years it will take to complete. ”

"Well, Your Majesty, with the manpower of the church, if the money is enough, it can be built in a year, right? ”

Joyla said with longing: "Yes, a year is enough to gather a large number of mages and holy magicians, the key is money, we can't forcibly recruit people to build it." ”

"Your Majesty, Cardinal Gloria asks to see you. Outside the door, the privy priest reported.

"Gloria, what is she doing here? Invite her in, oh, close the curtain on the wall. Joyla commanded.

Gloria appeared in the papal hall with a graceful figure, and said coquettishly: "Didn't disturb Your Majesty's rest?"

Joyla motioned for Gloria to sit down, and said without a fight: "No, you don't have to be polite with me, just call me by name, you must be very busy today." Gloria, St. Paul had a way out, but he was so conceited that if he had ignored Arris, then Arris's statement, which we would all have objected to, would not have actually turned out to be like this. ”

Gloria didn't sit down, but said, "I understand, there is nothing to complain about if you say that this kind of thing is a king or a loser, and in the end, if he is undefeated, then you all have to die." ”

Joyla said: "Gloria, in the whole matter, you are quite neutral, so I have no opinion on you, you have a special status, we don't need to say anything hypocritical, now that some people in St. Paul have followed you, I will still give you certain benefits, appease them, I hope you can support me." The force of the Holy See will be very concentrated in the future, otherwise this kind of thing will happen today, this is a shame for the Holy See, and the Supreme God will be angry if he knows it. ”

Whoever wants to oppose it will probably become Joyla's greatest enemy, and now Joyla's strength is absolutely strong, Gloria knew it, so she smiled and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I am here on behalf of their wishes." ”

Joyla interrupted, "There is no need to call me Your Majesty in private, it will make me realize that we are nothing more than pious servants of the Most High God. ”

Gloria said, "Okay, Joyla, I completely agree with what you said about the concentration of force. ”

Drawing a list, she began to give some information about her subordinates, and who wanted to hold where they were in the priesthood or priesthood.

Joyla nodded frequently and said, "According to the oracle, the Sect will become a place for cultivators. The Temple of Light is still in the Land of Cultivators. But where are these people, you'd better give me a detailed explanation. ”

It's impossible for anyone to remember every little place on the continent, that's why Joyla said so.

The two of them were very close to the wall of the wall chart, and Gloria knew that there was a map of the continent here, and it would be easy to compare the map, so she was by the wall, and opened the curtain with a bang, and said, "Those privy deacons... Oh my God, Joyla, are you trying to fight the gods?"

Joyla realized that she had asked something wrong, but she didn't have time to stop it, covering her head, she whimpered: "This is just my ambition, I think it is necessary, because the Demon God Cult has risen, and we can't stop it, although the power of the Church can also mobilize about one and a half million Templars, but if there is really a holy war, the Holy See will be defeated." ”

This magnificent small city, the attack and defense of Cairo Cathedral, with the blessing of so many magic towers, is not as simple as one plus one, many powerful and terrifying large magic circles can be cast, this entire small city in addition to no divine power blessing, its magic power is a hundred times stronger than the Holy Light Temple!

Glori's eyes flashed with silver: "Yes, not to mention the Star Church, even the Demon God Sect cannot be eradicated, and the aristocratic forces will be ready to move, not that they will be defeated, but that the Holy Light Church will completely disappear, unless the Supreme God comes." However, I don't think the other gods will give up the opportunity to participate, and maybe the coming of the High God may not work. Joyla, it looks like you need a lot of money. ”

Joyla pretended to sigh and said, "If you can understand, yes, I need a lot of money, and even if I can get some support from the church, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve this goal, maybe twenty years, maybe fifty years? Unfortunately, it may be too late in the end." ”

Gloria bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind, and asked, "Joyla, do you have a way to untie St. Paul's ring? ”

During the conference, St. Paul deliberately put everything in the space ring, which was a kind of manipulation of other people, and he hoped to use this small means to reduce the minds of people in the church.

Joyla said slightly proudly: "If it were someone else, it may not work, but I have an artifact in my hand, a headband left by a great assassin in ancient times, but unfortunately, when my ancestors were looking for the relics of this assassin, they met people from the Star Church, and there was a necklace at that time, but it was taken by the family of the current five elders of the Star Church, which is the legendary Marauder Suit." ”

Marauder suit! Sure enough, a well-established family is powerful! But this is too much in line with his own purpose, is this destined to strengthen his determination, Gloria looked at the door of the hall with a hint of resentment in her eyes, as if she could see through the heavy walls, somewhere.

After settling down, Gloria said, "This is perfect, dear Joyla, maybe I can help you get a lot of money." ”

Joyla understood a little when she heard this, and said, "Dear Glori, can you do this?"

Gloria laughed and said, "Dear Joyla, I didn't expect you to be so timid, why don't you dare? Perhaps, you wish to use this headband to open the ring, so that you can claim to be protected by the Most High God, but I would like to say that it is not cost-effective, and you should use this headband to get something more practical, because your prestige is enough. ”

As she spoke, she muttered in Joyla's ear.

When Joyla heard this, she exclaimed, "What the hell are you doing, Gloria? This is too good for me, why don't I be your friend?"

Gloria said vigorously: "It's not an enemy either!, Joyla, my situation is of my own making, and it has nothing to do with you, and I will not have any conflict with you, because I am not qualified to choose the pope, and I, from the bottom of my heart, am willing to support you, and only your Lordaeron church is decent, and the priests are relatively well restrained." ”

Joyla said indifferently: "This is just to intervene in the aristocratic circle and not be afraid of them." I do have my own understanding of the doctrine. ”

Gloria lowered her eyes and said: "Anyway, as a woman, I admire you very much, this competition, you are even more powerful, I only ask for two saints to be equipped with me in the future, often follow me, but also silver-haired and silver-eyed, light physique." ”

Joyla smiled, put her arm around Glori's waist, sat down and said, "That's fine, you see, we're like sisters, come, let's talk slowly, and tell us what you think of in detail." ”

Gloria had just thought about it, and her brain was spinning, and after a moment, she incorporated her goal into the plan.

She leaned into Joyla's ear again and whispered.

The next day, the three main leaders of the Inquisition gathered in Raphael's room, and Sorrenzo asked, "My lord, what should we do next?" ”

Raphael shrugged his shoulders and said, "I understand, but what to do? No one will support another fight, the Inquisition can't fight everyone." Which of you wants to be the chief referee?"

The three of them immediately shook their heads together.

Raphael looked at them speechlessly, these people have been in the inquisition for so many years, they can be regarded as seeing through the inquisition, and being the chief referee has no benefit in the slightest, except for the greater danger.

Raphael said, "Lucia, you are in charge, you will obey Joyla, you all know some points of contact, I don't ask you to do anything, as long as you share all the information with the family members." If you really encounter something that can't be solved, Lucia, you slip away and someone else picks up. ”

"My lord, should Aris be prepared if he tries to turn it against you?" said Lucia.

Raphael shrugged his shoulders: "I'll let you be the chief referee isn't just preparation, but don't say it to the outside world, Alis doesn't dare to go too far." (To be continued.) )
