Chapter 443: The Iron Cross

After the night, Alvin reappeared in front of the shadows.

The shadow's eyes were red and he yawned.

"How? I mean the results. ”

Alvin asked about the results.

He didn't care about the shadow.

The shadow looked at Alvin sadly: "Thank you boss for your concern, we found two inside, their bodies have been completely alienated, and they have obvious characteristics of Warcraft." ”

Alvin's heart tightened, but the expression on his face darkened.

"How did you deal with it?"

Shadow was sensitive to Alvin's use of the word "processing" rather than anything else.

"It's been dealt with, right over there, and it's burned to ashes when no one is around. We found that their bones already had the characteristics of Warcraft, and in essence, they were no longer human. ”

Alvin clenched his fists and turned his back behind him at the same time.

He couldn't let the shadow see his hands shaking.

"Are they spies?"

The shadow looked at Alvin mockingly, "Does it still matter?" It doesn't matter anymore. ”

What if they were just experiments in Wu Maxi's bloodline fusion technique?

They said that they were already terrible to look like this, and that if they wanted to live like this, they would rather die. So, they are suicidal. ”

The shadow said lightly.

Alvin's expression changed suddenly, and he asked eagerly, "Really?" ”

The shadow still looks like a hanger: "Of course it's true, I can't lie to you." ”

Alvin let out a sigh, "That's good, that's good." ”

He turned around and left, took two or three steps before remembering, turned around and asked, "Just two, right?" No more? Okay, okay, that's fine. ”

Then Alvin walked away as fast as he could.

"You shouldn't lie to him. He should have been told everything. ”

Jiang Ge turned out from behind.

"Do you think he wants to know the truth? If that's what you think, then why would you let the two of them go? ”

Jiang Ge was silent.

The shadow turned around and found Jiang Ge holding a dagger that shimmered with cold light.

"What? You want to kill me? The shadow looked at Jiang Ge with disdain.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ge pointed the dagger towards his chest, "If you denounce me, I will die in front of you right now." ”

The shadow was suddenly stunned, and then laughed happily: "Hahahaha, you are so interesting, why didn't I find it before?" Hahahaha, okay, you must deal with the rest of the things yourself, in two days, maybe not two days, the boss's ability will be restored, at that time, if you want to hide from him, it will be more difficult than ascending to the sky. ”

After saying that, the shadow yawned again, "I have to catch up on sleep, Wu Laiya must miss me, I'm going to sleep." ”

Jiang Ge watched the shadow burrow into the ground with an expressionless face, then looked around, and suddenly burst out laughing.

……

The province of Medou, where the Holy See is located.

The Holy City, also known as the Sanctuary, is the center of the Holy See.

This is the only city that does not have a place name.

Here, there are no civilians, all are clergy.

Pope Gregory IV, dressed in a red robe, looked at the parchment in front of him and was silent for a long time.

If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't heard the snoring all the time, the attendant next to him would have fallen asleep again under the papal seat.

This old man, for a long time, has been very low-key, but today I don't know why, he suddenly changed into a red robe that he rarely wears, which contrasts with the sparse white hair on his head, which is particularly incompatible.

Cardinal Kit was already a little impatient, but his face showed peace and humility, as well as the usual caution.

At this time, he couldn't laugh out loud.

Ward, that guy actually buried all the main forces of the Dragoons in one fell swoop.

If this kind of news is known to the congregation, I am afraid that it will not turn the world upside down.

As his most powerful rival to become the pope, Ward's defeat this time completely deprived him of the opportunity to compete for the pope.

He already knew the content of the parchment through other means, so he ......

He must not have a trace of expression at this time.

Any kind of expression may be interpreted by someone with a heart to reveal countless deep meanings.

"Sizzle......"

Pope Gregory IV took a long breath, but did not exhale for a long time.

Kit didn't move, like a marble statue on the wall.

The marble statues on the walls are all saints of all ages, all of whom are of the same identity, all of whom are of common origin, who believe in piety, practice their teachings, and finally become saints and bask in the glory of God.

Now, under the bright candlelight, their faces look particularly dark.

"Humph......"

His Majesty Gregory IV finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The hearts of all present were lifted.

"Let the eight of them come back quickly. It took two days to fly back to Meidu from Storm Castle, and it took a day to travel dozens of kilometers...... Hehe, am I a dying old man so terrible? ”

Gregory IV smiled, but there was not a smile on his face.

Everyone present was silent.

"Kit, in a moment, you can go to the pendicate in person, and ask the monks in the Garden of Thorns to come out and breathe in the outside air. This, you hold. ”

His majesty took out a mahogany box from the table and opened it to reveal a rusty black iron cross. The black place on it was not dirt, but like blood.

Everyone gasped.

"Iron Cross!"

Kit's face finally had an expression on his face that had not changed before the collapse, and he knew that he had to give up immediately, because he really couldn't hold this thing.

"Well, I'm afraid not!" The tone was hesitant, but the expression on his face was categorically refusal.

Just kidding, the Iron Cross can mobilize all the people in the Sanctuary except for the Pope, and when it appears, it brings with it a rolling head to the ground.

No one but the Pope can hold an iron-blooded cross.

At this time, the Pope must have been tempted to give this thing to himself. As smart as Kit, he won't accept it.

"It doesn't matter, do you want me to go to the penance with a hard time walking? It's just that you want me to run an errand, don't you agree to such a small request? Didn't anyone listen to what I'm saying now? ”

When the Pope said this, his expression was as kind as the neighbor's grandfather, but Kitt drank a bowl of ice water for three or nine days, and his heart was cold!

He hurriedly said that he didn't dare, so the attendant next to the Pope took the iron-blooded cross and walked in front of Kit respectfully.

To pick up or not to answer, that's the question.

Kit only hesitated for a moment, and then took the hot mountain.

And Kitt received it with respect, acting like the most deferential courtier.

Ren is an actor, and he can't find a flaw in his performance.

With the Iron Cross, you can mobilize all the military forces in the Holy Domain, such power has always been in the hands of the Pope himself, but now, he let himself take those old guys who went to the penance, does this show the Pope's trust in himself? Is it true that the Pope is too old to wield this most important power?

However, Kitt will never forget how His Majesty IV eliminated the fourteen cardinals by iron-blooded means, sent all the opposition to heaven, and walked down the holy mountain by means of thunder.

It is said that all the cardinals who elected the new pope at that time were silent about what was happening on the Holy Mountain at that time.

But the violent deaths of many cardinals still made the truth about the pope's accession to the throne obscure.

It was also from that day that Ward soared from a deputy commander to the head of the Dragoons.

No one knew about these things, but Kit couldn't know about them, because he was the deputy of one of the cardinals who had to die violently.

The statement at the critical moment gave him his current high position, and it also made him always tremble and walk on thin ice.

No one saw a glimmer of glint in the old Pope's eyes as Kitt took the cross, a look that no old man could have.

"Well, now that the situation is so bad, you can go quickly, so that my old man can rest for a while. So be it. ”

The Pope was lifted up and went back to the inner chamber.

Cardinal Kitt stood still for a moment before turning to leave.
