Under the watchful eyes of the Knights of Light, Evan had to give up his plan to forcibly break through, and it was not wise to clash with the Holy See now until the Pope's attitude was clear. ()

The port of Millis suddenly became silent, and only the light mages of the Holy See were busy preparing to join the city of Odin in Atlantus. This distance is really far enough, could it be that the power of this magic array is so powerful? There is really no way to explain this thing with theories on earth!

Jerek walked over with a blushing face, and said gloomily: "Now the situation is critical, I have already arranged a rescue plan outside, in order to be able to rescue Her Royal Highness the princess safely, I hope everyone will obey my command for the time being! If the situation is not right, everyone will read my code and act together! The main force of our fleet is in the north, and although the south is the closest to the dock, the Knights of Light are also the most heavily defended. Aven led the large force of the Praetorian Guard to the south to attract their attention, the Magister and Suzanne formed an elite team to protect Her Royal Highness to the north, I have sent a fleet to stand by the northern coast, and the other force has already lurked in the city, and can be picked up along the way! We have endured enough, if they still insist on embarrassing us, then let the storm come more violently!" Jerrick said through gritted teeth, and everyone looked solemn, and Aven's face was as cold as ice.

Everyone quietly discussed again, and the magic array on the side of the Holy See was almost built. It was June, the middle of the year, and it was noon, and the soldiers were all so dry from the sun, and the knights in armor were of course so hot that they were sweating and panting.

However, this party Linya didn't feel hot at all, Gandra summoned the water elemental ball and created an ice ring around Linya, blocking the heat wave from the outside, which was very cool, and Namiya also helped her hold up a small flower umbrella, but Linya thought about it and refused. She's the culprit, so I'm embarrassed to enjoy these special treatments, I really don't know what her subordinates will think......

The magic array temporarily erected by the Holy See is much larger than that of the Red Leaf Empire, but the style is similar, the middle of the magic array is a huge white mirror-shaped crystal with a diameter of about one meter, and the crystal mirror is placed in the center of a hexagonal magic array on the ground, and the outermost is a ring connecting the hexagons, which is obviously also blessed with magic. More than a dozen white robed light magicians evenly surrounded the circle, and together they summoned orbs of light, infusing magic into the crystal round mirror.

The magic array began to shine rapidly, bursts of dazzling light flashed, and some kind of strange sound came from the magic array, like the resonance of some element, and the light molecules in the entire space seemed to vibrate.

Linya suddenly felt that these magic arrays seemed to use the principle of elemental resonance to transmit messages, but what the specific principle was, I am afraid it would take a very in-depth and detailed study.

The blazing light finally faded away, and a figure gradually appeared on the crystal mirror in that array. Could this be the Pope named Eric? He looked like an old man in his sixties, his beard and hair were all white, and his face was full of majesty and solemnity, which was indeed a bit intimidating, but that sanctimonious appearance, how could it make people feel uncomfortable looking at it?

Maybe it's because Linya doesn't have a good impression of the Holy See in her heart! The imperial concubine on his head is very special, those kings and emperors are all ring-shaped, including his own princess Jin Mian, but this pope's golden concubine is a square spire, which is similar to the shape of the Holy See's building, will this kind of golden concubine be comfortable to wear? Linya feels very strange when she looks at it, and she really can't help laughing.

Alas, it's a bit excessive, how can you laugh at this time......

The Pope appeared, and the knights of light and the clergy present hurriedly saluted respectfully, and at Herman's signal, the soldiers of the Red Leaf Empire also saluted together.

"Greetings to our incomparably respected Pope, it is our greatest honor to see your holy face! Your glory will always be with the great god of light!" Listening to those fleshy offerings, Linya felt really fatal, and what was even worse was that she also had to salute - bowed and nodded slightly under the forcible control of Suzanne and Namia, there was no way, who let her little discern be held in her hands......

"Isn't it just a pope, what's the big deal, making such a big show......" Linya was still muttering to herself reluctantly, when she saw that her father in the magic crystal in the magic array actually took the initiative to salute that Eric, Linya was really surprised, and she didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's a pleasure to see you here! The people of the Red Leaf Empire will never forget what you have done for the world!"

Eric's gaze swept over the field, and the expression on his face changed slightly, but Linya saw it very clearly, and always felt that his movements seemed to be a little late...... It's like "network latency"? After all, it's still too far away. "Oh, Your Majesty, the Honorable Emperor Herman, the most pious people of the great God of Light!It turns out that you are also here, and it is a pleasure to see you, may the blessings of God always accompany you, and your empire!" said Eric, who quickly replied with a smile. However, how did Linya feel that his expression had put himself in a position higher than that of his father, like an elder shelf, Linya thought of what his father had done, and the grievances and insults he had suffered now were not all for himself, Linya couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, and her guilt for her father was even more indescribable.

"Farmino, I have heard that there was an extremely stern incident of offending the great god of light in Millis, what is going on?" asked Eric sternly. That's what happened this morning, I don't know how this guy knows!

In front of the pope who was closest to God, Farmino didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, and immediately told all about Linya's insulting words, of course, the recording stone as evidence. Hearing the conversation played in the recording stone, Eric's face suddenly changed, and his originally gray face became even paler, obviously angry.

"However, Your Majesty, I have verified and confirmed that these words of Princess Linya are purely unintentional jokes, just a joke between her and Princess Alice of the Caiyun Empire, which has an extremely good relationship, and Her Royal Highness Princess Alice has come forward to confirm this, and the priest of the Temple of Light of Leia can also prove that Princess Linya is actually a very pious person, and she actively participates in every official religious activity!" Farmino said good things about the Red Leaf Empire again, in fact, it was relieved to think about it, if the Holy See and the Red Leaf Empire fought, his position as a cardinal who was ineffective would be difficult to protect.

Eric's gaze swept from the crowd again, and the soldiers of the Red Leaf Empire looked embarrassed, after all, if they want to oppose the Holy See and the Pope, they are the spiritual leaders of the entire human race in the Bright World! But their own lives, their families, and their realities are given by the emperor of the empire, what choice can they have? After all, the pope is just an empty shelf, and the emperor of the empire is the one who really holds the power and power......

All the Knights of Light, the soldiers of the Holy City, and the soldiers of the Momiji Empire have put away their weapons, their swords have been sheathed, and their spears have been erected again, and it is a very serious crime to flout the Holy See to show off their force in front of the Pope. But the tension in the field did not abate in the slightest, and the soldiers clutched their weapons in their hands, ready to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy in front of them.

Eric, of course, could see the shape of this time, and couldn't help frowning slightly. Once again, Alice stood up and testified for Linya again, and of course Kalisa re-swore an oath before the Pope to prove that Linya was a devout believer in the Light.

But Eric never spoke again, and it was hard to understand what was going on in his mind. Emperor Herman said apologetically: "Dear Pope, I'm really sorry, my daughter is so willful, saying such unforgivable words, this is my responsibility as a father, please forgive her young ignorance, I am willing to bear God's punishment for her!"

Farmino also said cautiously on the side: "Your Majesty, this matter is indeed very strict from the point of view of offending the God of Light, so I haven't reported it to Odin City until I have fully investigated it...... But I think that the most important thing is to prepare for jihad and crusade now, and we should not delay the real big thing for the sake of a little girl's unintentional words. His Majesty Herman did a very good job, and when he learned that His Majesty the Pope had launched a call for holy war, he generously contributed 30,000 gold coins and 1,500 sets of high-quality knightly horses and equipment to help us organize this holy war......"

When Farmino finally told the price offered by the Red Leaf Empire to "redeem" their princess, Eric's face suddenly softened. Emperor Hermann took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, I am very sorry that my daughter has caused such a big trouble to the Holy See, but I believe that the merciful and tolerant God of Light will not have any problems with a child? I think I can only try to exterminate those heretics to show our loyalty to the great God of Light in the Red Leaf Empire! For this holy war, our Red Leaf Empire has been looking forward to it for a long time, we have always sincerely believed in the teachings of the great God of Light, and have never attacked our light compatriots, the Red Leaf Empire will always be the enemy of those infidels! Welcome to the Holy Knights of Light from Atlantus, I have decided to open the territory of the Red Leaf Empire to the Knights of Light, and all the Light Knights who go to Grecia to crusade against the heretics can pass the territory of the Red Leaf Empire for free, and our Red Leaf Empire will take care of their food and lodging, and help them repair their horses and weapons. The West Coast ports of the Red Leaf Empire can also be used for fleets from Atlantus for free repairs, and our Centrum Sea Fleet will also transport the Knights of Light from Imoa to Roña for free. All of this is just to show our Red Leaf Empire's incomparable respect and loyalty to the great God of Light!"

In front of thousands of people in this game, Herman is no longer good at raising the price with money, it is too blatant. However, these conditions offered by Emperor Herman are really bottomless, and the Red Leaf Empire doesn't know how much to pay for it, but in the end, it is the Holy See that gets face and praise from the Atlantic countries, and the Red Leaf Empire can only be thankless. Linya couldn't help but sigh again. Thinking of what my father said, the Red Leaf Empire never attacks countries that believe in the Doctrine of Light? It's a bit ridiculous, the army of the Red Leaf Empire is now besieging Nakans! But at this time, no one will come out to expose and accuse Herman of this matter, and everyone knows in their hearts that all these words now are just an exchange of rights and interests.

This is actually a farce, a temporary rehearsal drama, all the people are characters in this play, intriguing for their own interests, everyone is trying to make this scene more realistic, so that the audience thinks that this is the real story, but what is really going on, in fact, everyone knows very well in their hearts.

O hypocritical human beings!

Eric suddenly laughed and said: "Hehe, Majesty Herman, you must not blame yourself, you have always been the most pious people of the great God of Light, how can I not know this? I thought it was a big deal, it turned out to be just a child's unintentional words, is it necessary to be so nervous? I have issued a call for holy war according to the metaphor of God, to conquer Grecia, to launch a holy war against the infidels, and to defend the glory of the great God of Light, this is what we should do! Farmino, why are you so bothered about such a trivial matter? At this time, we should all the more unite, especially such a wonderful and pious friend as Hermann's! Farmino, are you a little too trivial? Look at what you have scared this beautiful and lovely little princess into?"

Hearing Eric's words, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
