Archbishop Fowler turned around and saw Archbishop Brandon in a white robe walking from not far away with a scepter in his hand, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Brandon, what do you want to do?"

"I should have asked you, Fowler." Archbishop Brandon glanced at Arthur, who had come with Archbishop Fowler, and sneered: "The Pope has ordered the blockade of the sword in the stone, and you knowingly committed it, and you also brought His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, what do you want to do?" ”

"The Pope just doesn't allow unrelated people to get close to the sword in the stone, and I'm the archbishop, isn't it qualified?"

Archbishop Brandon let out an 'oh' and said to the monk beside him, "Write it down, Archbishop Fowler said that he is not an unrelated person, etc., probably implying that he has something to do with the sword in the stone. ”

"Yes, Archbishop."

The monk took out a pen and paper and quickly jotted down the words.

Archbishop Fowler's eyes sank, and he said coldly: "Do you think that when this report is sent to the Pope, the Pope will believe it?" ”

"The Pope may not believe it, but he will doubt that you don't have to remember it."

"Yes!"

"Now everyone is threatening that the Sword in the Stone has something to do with you, Fowler." Archbishop Brandon said, "How dare you run here at this juncture? And with the four princes. That's enough to prove a lot of things. ”

"Proof of what? Could it be that I came here with the fourth prince to admit the rumors? If there is a rumor that Nicholas intended to rebel and as a result he went to the army, is that evidence of admission? ”

"You're using strong words. Everyone knew that Nicholas could not have rebelled, and he supported His Majesty. ”

"So why do you doubt me? Just because I brought His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince here? It's a slur."

Cha!

The sound of steel grinding against the cracks in the stone came, Archbishop Brandon's eyes widened sharply, and he looked behind Archbishop Fowler, who swallowed his saliva, had a bad premonition in his heart, and slowly turned his head

Arthur was holding a sword, looking at him with a 'stunned' face, and the sword in the stone was gone, and he pulled it out.

Because of the appearance of Archbishop Brandon, Archbishop Fowler didn't have time to do anything, but Arthur really pulled out his sword!

"Hahaha! Fowler! Now I'll see how you explain it! ”

Archbishop Brandon laughed a few times and was about to leave, when he heard Archbishop Fowler say, "This is a misunderstanding! The stone must have just loosened! Recently, so many people have drawn their swords, and it is normal for them to loosen! ”

"Would you believe this reason?"

"Your Highness, you insert the sword back and let Brandon pull it out!"

"No problem."

Arthur agreed very happily, and inserted the holy sword back untouched, and Archbishop Brandon climbed on the stone, held the holy sword and said, "Fowler, you should understand that this is your last chance to quibble, if I can't pull it out, you won't be able to argue." ”

"Less nonsense!" Archbishop Fowler gritted his teeth and said, "Pull it out quickly!" ”

Archbishop Brandon exerted force in his hand, and the holy sword did not move at all, just like last time.

Seeing that he couldn't pull out the holy sword, Archbishop Fowler, who didn't believe in evil, stepped forward to try, but couldn't pull it out.

Arthur tried again, and with little force, the sword broke away from the stone.

"Humph!"

Seeing this, Archbishop Brandon brushed his sleeves and left, going to the Pope to complain.

That evening, at St. Paul's Cathedral, Pope Ubli I summoned several of the parties, namely Mavi, Archbishop Brandon and Archbishop Fowler, to hold a secret meeting.

Neither Archbishop Brandon nor Marvey had a very good look, and Archbishop Fowler was even more gloomy, and Ubley I was not happy, and said in a deep voice:

"Fowler, what do you want to say?"

"Pope, I didn't do this!" Archbishop Fowler struggled to argue: "Why should I go to make a sword in the stone so that everyone thinks that the fourth prince is the destined king? Could it be that a sword can decide who will be king? ”

"I have asked the Goddess about this, Him."

"What did the goddess say?"

Ubri I shook his head and sighed: "The goddess did not answer me, it is fate. ”

"Is the appearance of the sword in the stone inevitable?" Archbishop Fowler was shocked: "Is it not man-made, but real?" ”

"I don't know, but the consequences of this incident are serious."

Ubli I looked at Mavi and Archbishop Brandon: "The current king is Shukri I, he has not been on the throne for a long time, and everyone recognizes his status as king, and the current development of the Windsor Kingdom is going well, and there is no need to change the king at all."

Archbishop Fowler said excitedly like grasping at a straw: "Pope, do you want to go against the will of the goddess and against the guidance of fate? The fourth prince is the chosen king! He deserves to be king! ”

"The appearance of the sword in the stone is fate, and the accession to the throne of the fourth prince is not necessarily fate." Ubli I said: "The fact that the goddess did not give us a response proves that she had expected it, and we can just let it be." ”

"Let it be! Let the fourth prince ascend the throne is to go with the flow! Archbishop Fowler said, "We need a true king!" ”

"Archbishop Fowler." Ma Wei interrupted him: "Going with the flow means not interfering, but you keep interfering, isn't this against the will of the goddess?" ”

Archbishop Brandon nodded: "Nicholas is right, true believers should follow the will of the goddess, do not interfere in this matter, and let it develop naturally. ”

Even Pope Ubri I agreed with Mavi and Archbishop Brandon that even if he held a vote, he would be at a disadvantage, and Archbishop Fowler could only agree.

Back at the grocery store, the second prince was already waiting.

"Nicholas, how's it going?"

Seeing Ma Wei coming back, the second prince couldn't wait to ask, "Pope, what are they going to do with Arthur?" ”

"There is no penalty."

"Why?!"

The second prince roared angrily: "The sword in the stone is obviously artificially made, and the mastermind behind it has also been found!" Why not penalize it! ”

After telling the Pope's judgment and the Goddess's decision, the second prince sat down with a gloomy face: "Let it be. What is this? Shall I obediently hand over the throne? ”

"No, Your Majesty, I think it's the opposite."

"What do you mean?"

"Not only will we not be able to hand over the throne, but we will have to fight Archbishop Fowler to the end!"

"But."

The second prince looked at Ma Wei blankly: "But doesn't the goddess not allow believers to interfere in this matter?" ”

"First of all, I'm just a member of the church, not a believer in a goddess." Ma Wei straightened his clothes and said, "Secondly, Your Majesty, do you think that the Archbishop of Fowler obeys the will of the goddess?" ”

"Archbishop Fowler is a believer in the goddess, he will definitely abide by it!"

"I don't think he will." Ma Wei said his reasons: "The goddess did not explicitly ask the believers to do something, and it was just the Pope's speculation to go with the flow, and the goddess of fate did not give an answer on the issue of the sword in the stone, but this at least proves one thing - the appearance of the sword in the stone is a part of fate." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, the appearance of the sword in the stone will lead fate to two different routes, just like Danbala, this is the fork of fate, so the goddess didn't respond."

The second prince said strangely: "In the matter of the god of voodoo, Dembala, doesn't the goddess want to stop it?" Faced with the fork point of fate, the goddess should respond! ”

"The fork of fate brought by Danbala is likely to be the end of human fate, so the goddess wants to come forward to stop it, but the appearance of the sword in the stone may not cause too serious consequences, but another way of fate, so the goddess did not interfere." Ma Wei said.

"That is." The second prince opened his mouth: "Whether I am the king or Arthur is the king, it is a part of fate?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"I see!"

The second prince's eyes lit up: "It's really time to fight!" If Arthur and I can do it, then why not me! Nicholas, do you have any good ideas? Is it okay to get rid of Arthur directly? ”

"The Fowler Archbishop protects the Four Princes, while Archbishop Brandon and the Pope both think that it should be natural, they will not help, and in terms of force, we are at a disadvantage."

"Let the Royal Navy capture Arthur overnight and shoot him on the spot!"

"Your Majesty, please be serious, Archbishop Fowler is not a vegetarian, he was the first person to stop the Church of Truth back then, in terms of guts, he is definitely at the top, killing a few Royal Navy is not a problem for him."

"Are you just watching them overthrow me?"

"You are now the king, and without the intervention of the church, what will cause the king to transpose?"

"Revolution, or the king loses the support of the parliament and the people!"

"Your Majesty, think about it again, why did Archbishop Fowler make a sword in the stone?"

"The wind of public opinion, the support of believers in the war of public opinion!"

The second prince suddenly realized, and under the guidance of Ma Wei, he suddenly understood a lot: "Archbishop Fowler is destroying my trust foundation!" Only then will he be able to shake my position! ”

In terms of the popular base, the second prince is obviously inferior to the fourth prince, and the fourth prince, as the leader of the Labor Party, has long established a high enough prestige in the hearts of the people, not to mention that he is also the president of the Educators Association, and the next generation he will train will also support him.

The second prince sensed the crisis, and he realized that Arthur had developed enough to threaten him, even if he became king, it still could not be avoided.

Although he has fallen into a disadvantage in terms of the popular base, in the parliament, the second prince is still slightly better than Arthur, and there are more people who support him, but only now.

"There are not a few councilors who truly believe in fate, if they know the news of the sword in the stone, I am afraid they will turn their heads and support the fourth prince, I have ordered the news of the fourth prince pulling out the holy sword."

Ma Wei's words made the second prince breathe a sigh of relief, it was indeed reassuring to have a right-hand man by his side.

"In addition, Your Majesty, you should win over the councillors, and I will do the same, and it is not yet time to decide the winner."

"I see."

A lot of news always spread, even if the major newspapers did not publish it, the news that Arthur pulled out the sword in the stone still spread as quickly as possible, and within two days, the whole of London spread.

The people began to talk about Arthur who drew the sword in the stone, and many people believed that Arthur was the legendary king, especially the workers who were favored by the Labour Party, and suddenly a wave of public opinion set off in London.

"Here we go."

At 9 Downing Street, Ma Wei stood in front of the window, and on the desk behind him was a document about the polls, and he had heard about what the people were talking about in recent times.

In the hearts of the people of London, Arthur has proved himself with his practical actions, and the people all agree with him in making him king.

"Are these all your plans?"

Goda Yunia looked at the public opinion document on the table, and asked without raising her head: "Let Archbishop Fowler take the blame, promote the fourth prince to the throne, and provoke internal contradictions, no one can guess that you are the mastermind behind the scenes." ”

"Yes, who would doubt the second prince's biggest supporter?"

Ma Wei smiled and said: "The second prince is the one who holds the throne with one hand, and anyone can covet his throne, but I can't, I am the most innocent, which is exactly what I want them to see." ”

On the surface, the second prince and the fourth prince are-for-tat, and the parliamentarians have chosen to stand in line, and secretly, whoever has a small move is also under Ma Wei's surveillance, after all.

No matter who the parliamentarians turn to, they can't get around Ma Wei.

Ran to the camp of the second prince, Ma Wei knew, and ran to the fourth prince, Ma Wei also knew.

What small actions the second prince and the fourth prince made, Ma Wei was even clearer.

It is only at this point that his efforts have paid off substantially.

This is a siege against the Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny, Ma Wei has captured the bridgehead, and if he continues to move forward, it is the kingdom of the Three Goddesses of Destiny!

It's close at hand.

"Soon, those councillors will make their own choices, the second prince will give them a good reward, and those who are willing to listen to fate and bow their heads will all take refuge in the fourth prince, when the camp is divided, it will be the moment for us to do it."

After speaking, Ma Wei looked back at Geyunia: "When are you going to wake up?" ”

"Is that how you want me to disappear?"

"You won't disappear, you'll just become a new version of yourself."

"I think you should be more concerned about foreign aid than about it." Godage Yunia said: "Without foreign help, even if I complete the second awakening, I will not be able to defeat the goddess of fate, he has completed the third awakening, even if he is injured, his strength is stronger than mine." ”

Yunia was right, and Mavi knew it was time for her to think about foreign help.

Relying only on the Aurora Society and Luo Jin, it is impossible to defeat the Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny, and it also needs to be able to influence the situation of the battle.

Pleasing God is the only way out.

There is still half a divine white candle in his hand, and he can barely summon a god to descend once, but there is only one chance.

Moreover, because there is only half of the white candle left, it is impossible to summon a complete kingdom of gods like Asgard, and can only summon a crippled kingdom like Baji and Avalon.

In the spirit of shopping around, before making a decision, Mavi wants to meet the Golden Gods.

For a long time, he wanted to meet the gods who created the golden age and ushered in a brief period of prosperity for mankind.
