A dozen miles away from Berelli there was a bloody incident, a large group of clergy were killed in public, and then the attackers actually set fire to the bodies of the slain clergy, and then fled without a trace.

The case was quickly reported to the Gallic Empire by the fleeing merchants, and both the Gallic Empire and the Church were moved by the news and quickly sent a large team of men to investigate. This time, the emperor did not refuse the people of the church to directly use the teleportation circle to descend on Bereley, because the emperor vaguely felt that this was a big trouble!

If it weren't for this checkpoint blocking the way of the church brigade, the six honorable Templar Archbishops would not have gone to the roadside inn to rest, and if they hadn't gone to the inn to rest, they wouldn't have been assassinated.

The six high-ranking Templar Archbishops, three of whom were veteran Holy Realm powers, were actually killed just outside the city of Berelli! If this matter really had something to do with the Gallic Empire, the War of Religion was inevitable! Moreover, the other countries on the continent would definitely not help the Gallic Empire this time, because they had already received enough benefits, and this time it was the Gallic Empire that took the initiative to provoke the Church, and those countries would definitely not help the Gallic Empire against the Church.

Even the Emperor can imagine what kind of face those empires will have when they fall into the ground! These guys will definitely not give up any opportunity to take advantage of it. Although the church is rich, it is a pleasant thing to scrape oil from the church, but it is also a good thing to get some benefits from the Gallic Empire, the number one power on the mainland!

Therefore, half an hour after the emperor received the information, the second group of envoys of the church came to the emperor of Bolley, until the second group of personnel sent by the church was gathered, and then he came to the scene of the crime with a huge brigade of people. By this time, the dragoons and brass hats of the Gallic Empire had spilled the scouts for two or three hundred miles, but they had not received the slightest useful information, and they had not encountered any suspicious characters at all.

Standing in front of that humble level, the emperor's face was extremely strange.

He pointed to the arrow tower, which was basically defenseless, and looked at Archbishop Seattle of the Templar standing beside him with a sly-looking gaze: "Honorable Seattle Dagui, the clergy sent by the three popes to investigate the bloody case of the Holy Radiance Cathedral stopped because of such a humble level?"

The pale beard looked like the Archbishop of Seattle, who was at least seventy or eighty years old, and his face was as ugly as if he had just eaten several pounds of shit, and he glanced at the emperor with drooping eyelids and sneered abruptly: "We respect the laws of the Gallic Empire, so I think the six honorable Templar Archbishops did not use the privileges of the church to force their way through! You know, this is a sensitive time!"

The Emperor nodded thoughtfully.

The countries of the mainland have just chopped off a piece of flesh from the church, and the church is holding back the fire in its belly, and the Gallic Empire is also wary of the church. At least after this turmoil is completely calmed down, neither the empire nor the church wants any more big trouble.

Therefore, the six archbishops of the Templar stopped because of this humble level. I have to say that Blackbeard or some people around him have calculated people's hearts to the extreme, and the team of three hundred church envoys has fallen into the trap headlong.

Seattle glanced at the emperor and then lightly tapped his finger on the official document of the Ministry of Justice hanging on the checkpoint: "I don't think this matter has anything to do with the Gaosheng Empire, but please explain the origin of this official document!"

The Emperor glanced at Kumon and then leaned closer to examine it carefully for a while, then he shook his head vigorously.

"The official document is forged. The blank official document used is a special document of the Ministry of Justice with watermarks and secret marks specially printed by the Empire, and the handwriting is indeed the handwriting of the Minister of Justice of the Empire, but the handwriting can be forged, but the writing habits of the Minister of Justice cannot be forged!"

The emperor sneered with a gloomy face: "I will give an explanation to the church, there are indeed insiders from the Ministry of Justice involved in this matter. They have desecrated the majesty of the laws of the Empire......!

Glancing at Seattle helplessly, the emperor smiled bitterly: "Arujang, that is, my Minister of Justice, when he issues orders, all the vowel letters, his notes will be converted from floral characters to printed fonts, and all periods, he will leave a small tail hook." And on this official document, all the characters are in flower style!"

Seattle looked at the emperor: "There is an official of the Ministry of Justice of the Gallic Empire who forged the personal order of the Minister of Justice!"

The emperor looked at Seattle: "I will take him out and let the church burn him at the stake!"

Seattle nodded, he knew that the Emperor would not lie, because the Gallic Empire had already received the greatest benefit, and there was no need for him to risk the wrath of the Church again to assassinate the six honorable Templar archbishops. The three popes in the Pope Hall did not believe this, and no one in the entire Church believed that the emperor would be stupid enough to do this, and the only thing that everyone on the Holy Mountain feared the most, was ......

Civil strife!

The bloody case of the Holy Radiance Cathedral may be that some forces within the church expressed dissatisfaction with the obstinate behavior of the Punishment Temple, so they used a huge black cauldron to buckle Archbishop Alpha's head. Therefore, the Pope Hall sent six Templars directly under the Pope to investigate the truth of the matter and privately slaughter the clergy who are also believers, which is something that the Church leadership cannot tolerate.

But before the six Templar archbishops arrived at the Cathedral of the Holy Radiance, they became dead men on the way, who did this?

If it was someone from within the Church who did it, then who? Who had the audacity? Who had such strength? Who would it benefit to do so? What did they really want to do? Did they plot against the Pope? The three Popes represent the interests of the three major factions within the Church, but apart from these three factions, the major temples of the Church have extremely powerful potential forces, and if they planned this assassination, then what did they want to do?

That's why Seattle was so good at talking, and he believed the emperor's explanation.

Several clergy pillars rushed over, they were the ones who had gone to the fire to examine the remains of the burned corpses.

A cardinal handed the leg bone to Seattle with a stern face, and Seattle's face changed suddenly. He brought the blackened leg bone in front of him, sniffed it carefully, and then bit the tip of his tongue, and a mouthful of blood sprayed on the leg bone.

There was a faint golden glow on the black bones, and the faint, faint golden glow was full of sacrosanct majesty.

"My lord!" the cardinal lowered his voice, "all the bodies were burned, and only a few bones survived. It was impossible to tell what weapon they had been killed, but the remnants of the divine power on these bones ...... It's much purer than the divine power I've cultivated. ”

Divine power, naturally only the people of the church will cultivate divine power. And the purer and more condensed the divine power, the stronger the strength.

The cardinal is already a high-ranking person of the Church, a person who is more pure than the divine power of the Templar Church, only the Templar Archbishop and the cardinal Cardinal Archbishop of the Templar Church!

But Seattle looked at this leg bone, and his face became extremely tangled.

This cardinal only knew that the residual divine power on this leg bone was purer than his own divine power, but only Seattle knew that the divine power that he had cultivated and purified for hundreds of years was not as pure as the divine power in front of him. This divine power is even filled with a faint vitality, with an aura of wisdom, which Seattle has only occasionally felt in the three popes.

A chill rushed from the tail vertebrae to his head, and Seattle almost didn't cry.

It is certainly impossible for the three popes to come here to kill people, so it is possible to easily kill six Templar archbishops here, only a dozen miles away from Berelli, and three of them are terrible beings of the power of the Holy Realm, there are many of them within the Church, but ...... None of them can afford to be offended by Seattle!

Tucking his leg bones into the spacious sleeves of his robe, Seattle looked at the emperor with that-like expression, and laughed with great difficulty: "Your Majesty, I'...... I have found enough evidence that I am going to go back and report to the three popes what happened here. Whatever you see, I hope you keep it a secret, because, you know!"

The emperor looked at Seattle thoughtfully, the golden light on the leg bone just now was so dazzling, it was impossible for the emperor to ignore this.

In fact, the emperor was also speculating on a question just now, there were three Holy Realms among the six Holy Archbishops, and according to common sense, it would take more than thirty Holy Realms to besiege and kill the three Holy Realms, so that they would have no chance of escaping. But apparently, there were no large-scale fights here, and the fleeing merchants did not say that there had ever been fights here.

The six Templar Archbishops were killed silently in a fraction of a few breaths!

Who could do that? The Emperor pondered for a moment, maybe with the power of the Gallic Empire, he could do it, but apparently he was not doing it. Thinking about the bloody case in the Holy Hui Cathedral, the emperor suddenly had an urge to sing!

Teaching dog-eat-dog, it's so fucking funny, and the emperor thinks he should hook up with a few little girls tonight and have a good time!

Just as the Emperor was about to assassinate Seattle for a few words, a group of light cavalry rushed over frantically.

"Your Majesty, the personal clerk of the Minister of Justice, Lord Arujang, was found hanged in the back alley of the Ministry of Justice!"

The emperor immediately looked at Seattle: "It looks like someone has cut off the clue!"

Seattle's face was even more ugly, as if he had just eaten three pounds of shit, and then his enthusiastic host brought him another ten pounds. (To be continued)
