Chapter 280: Controversy
Early the next morning, Leo was cultivating his fighting qi in the room next to Yan Shen, when suddenly a noisy sound came from outside, which made him sober up. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
He listened quietly for a while, vaguely hearing the words "heresy", "Holy See", "felony", etc., and his heart was slightly startled, thinking of yesterday's events.
Could it be that Bishop Luke has come to the door?
Leo opened the door and walked out, and soon, following the direction from which the voice came, came into the hall.
"Your Highness Laurien, although you are a noble Highness, as long as you are involved with heresy, it is useless for you to be in any position. ”
"I was going to ignore the fact that you attacked and injured me yesterday, but now you tell me that the heretic Howard escaped from you?
As soon as he entered the hall, he heard a familiar voice speaking, and his tone was very dissatisfied.
Really.
Leo heard that this was the same Luke voice from last night, frowned slightly, and squeezed through the crowd in front of him, and soon saw what was inside.
Luke's face was serious, and there were two knights of light with cold faces and powerful aura standing beside him, followed by ten priests of the Holy See of Light.
Opposite them, Laurien sat on the throne with an ugly face, and Aaron was the only one by his side, and the guards and servants in the palace were all on Leo's side.
"Your Highness, let me be honest, did you think of the friendship between master and servant and let the heretic Howard go. Luke spoke again, a sneer on his face, his gaze vaguely sweeping over the Knight of Light beside him.
When the two Light Knights heard this, their already indifferent expressions became even colder, and their eyes were fixed on Laurien, as if as soon as he said a word, they would immediately start to suppress it.
"Shut up!"
An angry shout suddenly sounded in the hall, and everyone was stunned, and then looked at Aaron.
I saw that an irrepressible anger appeared on Aaron's face at this time, his eyes were red, and he looked at Luke deadly.
The next moment, he took off his gloves, slashed his fingers with his sharp saber, let the blood drip to the ground, and shouted:
"I, Aaron Aulet, swear to the God of Oaths in my own blood that not a word of what I say is false, and that if I break my oath I will lose my name, my glory, and my life!"
As the words fell, a bloody light suddenly appeared in front of Yalian's body, soaring into the sky, and a bell rang in the dark.
After doing all this, Aryan tore off the corner of his shirt and wrapped his fingers briefly, looked at Luke coldly and said, "How? Now you can prove that Mars was saved by the anti-religious people, right?"
The story of Marth's escape was told by Aaron himself, and now that Aaron swore and was approved by the God of Oath, it meant that what he said was true.
Hearing Aaron's words, the two knights of light flickered their eyes for a moment, glanced at each other, and nodded silently, and Luke's face suddenly became ugly.
However, Leo noticed that Laurien did not relax because of this, and still frowned tightly.
He was surprised in his heart, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly realized, and his face became solemn.
The Holy See of Light is not trying to find out how Mars ran now, they are here to pick people up.
Laurion agrees to Luke, but can't give it to anyone, and if Luke wants to pursue it to the end, that's what he really wants to do.
"Well, even if Mars was rescued, Your Highness Laurien, you promised me last night that you would return the man to the Holy See today, but now you tell me that he was rescued by the anti-doctrins. ”
"This is Nasus, your highness's territory, and Mars is still locked up in your palace. ”
"In this way, people are rescued from people, is it because His Highness has not arranged a good protective force, or is it that the strength of His Highness's subordinates is only this, and they are not anti-religious opponents?"
"If it's the latter, with all due respect, the Kingdom of Stewart is one of the five kingdoms of mankind, and His Highness, as the prince of Stewart, can't even defeat the professional of such an idle organization as anti-doctrine, then His Highness is too ashamed of this prince. ”
After a moment of silence in the hall, Luke showed a hint of ruthlessness, took a deep breath, and said slowly.
As he said this, the expressions of everyone in the hall became more and more angry, and in the end, almost all of them had fire in their eyes.
What Luke said could be said to be a naked humiliation of Laurien.
"Bastard......" After hearing this, Yalian's body trembled continuously, and his eyes were almost murderous staring at Luke, if it weren't for the two Transcendent Rank Peak Light Knights who also locked their eyes on him, he would definitely shoot directly and beat Luke, the bastard who insulted Laurien, to the point of breaking his head and bleeding.
Although Luke was a little flustered by Aaron's gaze, he still knew that Aaron couldn't do anything to him, so he was fearless and quickly calmed down.
His gaze crossed over to Aaron and rested on Laurien, who was the master.
However, after seeing Laurien's expression, Luke felt a palpitation for no reason, as if he was being targeted by a beast.
Delusion, it must be an illusion.
Luke shook his head, comforting himself in his heart, and soon, the feeling of palpitations slowly disappeared.
Seeing Luke's performance, Laurien's frowning brow slowly relaxed, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.
He looked at the two knights of light and said, "Your Excellency, can you give me half a month, and I will ...... Howard recaptures it, and then hands it over to you. ”
When the two Knights of Light heard his words, they just showed a look of thought, and before they could speak, Luke next to them sneered: "Half a month to capture Howard, do you know how many people the Holy See dispatched to capture Howard five years ago, and how many times it failed? This time I was finally able to sanction him, but because of the incompetence of your subordinates, he escaped again." ”
"Don't negotiate! Let go of the heretics and hurt the Holy See Bishop, even if you are a prince, you have to go back to the headquarters of the Inquisition with us!"
Laurien's eyes were slightly cold, he glanced at Luke, ignored it, and turned back to the two knights of light, this attitude of ignorance made Luke's heart flutter again.
After a long time, a knight of light muttered: "I'm sorry, Howard is a heretic who has been wanted by the Holy See for seven years, if this hadn't happened, His Highness would have captured Howard, and he could even get a good reward from the Holy See, but now...... Forgive us for not having that power. ”
As his words fell, a hint of disappointment flashed in Laurien's eyes.
But then another Knight of Light continued, "Although we can't give His Highness a chance to recapture Howard, the punishment that Bishop Luke said is not that serious. ”
"After Bishop Luke informed us last night, we spent the night investigating and found that during his five years as His Highness's subordinate, Howard did not do anything to any human or alien race. ”
In other words, during the five years that His Highness took Howard in, he did not indirectly kill others, although the crime of harboring heresy still exists, but it can be punished lightly. ”
"Coupled with the fact that His Highness suppressed Howard as soon as he exposed his true nature last night, His Highness's punishment is actually not severe, and he will not return to the headquarters of the Inquisition as Bishop Luke said. ”
After the Light Knight's words were finished, Laurien and the others were surprised.
"How is this possible...... He's harboring heresy!" Luke said incredulously.
The Knight of Light glanced at him and said, "Bishop Luke, so you know, I listened to what you just said, and I thought that you thought that His Highness Laurien was a heretic. ”
Luke shuddered when he heard this, and quickly closed his mouth, cold sweat broke out on his face.
The words of the Knight of Light made him feel a little ominous in his heart.
Could it be that he was acting too anxiously and arousing their suspicions? The more Luke thought about it, the more flustered he became, and his face showed a panicked look, completely oblivious to the fact that everyone was paying attention to him at this time.
"Bishop Luke, why are you sweating so much? Is the air too stuffy here?"
Laurion narrowed his eyes slightly and said to Luke, causing him to wake up suddenly.
"Hehe, no, it's just that I was attacked by Your Highness yesterday, and my body was a little weak, and I was in a cold sweat. Luke reacted, and when he saw that even the two Knights of Light were staring at him with some suspicion, he was shocked in his heart, and said in a hurry.
As soon as he said this, the suspicion in the eyes of the two Light Knights slowly disappeared, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"I see, but Bishop Luke, you're sweating too much, so wipe it so that it doesn't drip on the floor and stain my carpet. Laurion said with a smirk, causing everyone to laugh and embarrass Bishop Luke.
He snorted coldly, took out a handkerchief from the pocket of his white robe, and wiped the cold sweat off his face.
"Now satisfied, let's get down to business. ”
"Wait!" Aryan interrupted Luke with a loud shout, causing him to raise his brow and look impatient.
"What's wrong again......"
"Don't move!"
Aaron roared at him, and a violent fighting spirit suddenly erupted from his body, which made the faces of Luke and everyone in the Holy See change slightly, I don't know what Aryan suddenly went crazy, and the two knights of light also showed a look of vigilance and put their hands on the hilt of their swords.
"Aaron, what's wrong?" Laurion didn't think he could, he knew Aaron's character, he knew that he wasn't such an impulsive and reckless person, he must have discovered something to become like this.
Aaron was approaching Luke step by step, but when he heard Laurien's words, his footsteps suddenly stopped.
"Your Highness Laurian, I'm sure he's the same dark mage who came to Maas's rescue last night!"
Aaron pointed at Luke and said something in a deep voice that surprised everyone present.
The regional bishop of the Holy See of Light, a dark mage?
Whether it was Laurien's guards or the people of the Holy See, the first thought that came to mind when they heard this sentence was what Aryan was talking nonsense.
Even Laurien was slightly stunned when he heard this.
Only Leo seemed to suddenly wake up, showing a thoughtful look, but everyone paid attention to Aaron and did not notice his abnormality.
"Haha, Lord Aaron, your joke is not funny, and slandering a bishop is no less guilty than harboring heresy. Luke said with a sneer.
Hearing his words, everyone nodded, and Leo's gaze was slightly condensed.
He had been staring at Luke since Aryan had finished speaking, sensing Luke's shock and panic for a moment, and although he quickly returned to normal, he was still caught by Leo who had been paying attention to him.
This Luke, definitely has a problem!
