Chapter 156: The Ambition of the Order Order of the Holy Duma!
"Prophecy? What prophecy? Hearing the words of the Order's elders, Galevin was confused.
Speaking of the Order of the Holy Duma, Galevin can be said to know it completely, because he grew up in the Order of the Holy Duma since he was a child, and in addition to some regular courses, such as knowledge and politics, he is trained by the Order of the Holy Duma every day.
Of course, Gallerwen's training as the next successor to the Order was completely different from the training that those members of the Order received.
However, this did not delay his understanding of the Order of the Holy Duma.
Including the history of the Order of the Holy Duma, Galevin has long been familiar with it, and can even recite it backwards.
Speaking of the Order of the Holy Duma, in fact, the background is not small.
The Order of the Holy Duma first originated in the 14th century, a product of the Crusades. The first members of the Order of the Holy Dumas were a group of combat priests who were of the same origin as the Templars and were close in thought.
However, after the end of the Crusades, these combat priests did not agree with the Pope's gradually moderate rule, and were accused of flouting the Pope's authority, and despite the Holy See's punishment, they openly broke with the Catholic Church, and thus formed the current Order of the Holy Duma.
Compared to the Church, the Order of the Holy Duma is not so much a new denomination as a group of ultra-fanatics who split from the Crusaders.
With the wealth accumulated during the Crusades, the Order of the Holy Duma adopted gifted children and trained them into fighting machines through brainwashing and hypnosis to maintain the majesty and order of the Order of the Holy Duma.
The power is even stronger than it was before the church was broken!
It was only later because of the changes of the times and the rise of science.
The Order of the Holy Duma, which had already broken away from the Church, had to gradually come to an end because the consumption of wealth could not keep up with the speed of replenishment.
In order to survive, the Order of the Holy Duma became the guardian sect of the Gellervens, a wealthy local family in Gotham, more than a hundred years ago.
From then on, the Order of the Holy Duma and the Gellervin family were interdependent, with the Gellervin providing them with financial support and the Order of the Holy Duma providing security for the Gellervins.
Until now, it is not so much that the Order of the Holy Duma is an independent organization, but rather that it is the security department of the Gellervin family.
This is one of the reasons why, just about a hundred years after being expelled from Gotham City, the Gallevans were able to return to the top and return to Gotham City......
However, the Gellervin family and the Order of the Holy Duma had been interdependent for so long, and Gaffin had never heard of any prophecy from the Order of the Holy Duma.
In his impression, the Order Order of the Holy Duma was just a killer force in his own hands, and it had nothing to do with the chatter of gods and gods like prophecy.
That doesn't seem like that now?
Galven had just experienced supernatural events himself, and even gained supernatural powers as a result, and now he would not simply think that there were no supernatural powers in the world......
"Theodore, do you believe in prophecy?"
At this time, it was the Grand Elder of the Order who asked Theodore Gadwin in some astonishment.
Gallervin was raised by him, and even Gallervan's father probably didn't know Gallervan himself.
Naturally, the Elders of the Order knew exactly what kind of person Gellerwin was, and he did not believe that there was anything beyond science in this world.
Not to mention prophecy, a statement that even as an Elder of the Order, felt ethereal.
Now Gallefin did not refute him in the first place, but asked him what the prophecy was, which made the Church Elders find very incredible.
Could this prophecy change even the character of Galevin himself?
"Believe, of course I believe in the existence of prophecy." Gellerven remembered the scene he had just seen in the Arkham asylum, and his tone couldn't help but sigh. "Even I can rise from the dead, why can't prophecy exist?"
Galven's answer made the Grand Elder of the Order more confirmed the truth of the prophecy in his heart, and at the same time even more excited!
It seems that the Order of the Holy Duma is indeed about to rise again!
Excited, the Grand Elder of the Order didn't bother to ask what had happened to Gellerven, and directly told him the prophecy.
Of course, even if he asked Gellerven, he would not tell him the truth without Levi's permission.
This is the dead rule set by Levi for these heroic template carriers, binding force is equivalent to an order, and it must be followed!
"In the prophecy, the successor of the Order of the Holy Duma is called the Angel of Death, also known as the Death Knight, who will encounter the embrace of death, and after breaking free from death, he will return to the world and awaken......
The content of the prophecy was very obscure, and in order to facilitate Gellerwin's understanding, the Grand Elder of the Order interpreted the prophecy for Gellerven with the content he had parsed himself.
Gellerven listened to the prophecy from the mouth of the Elder of the Order, and his face was full of complicated expressions.
Whether this prophecy was valid or a coincidence, he did not know.
But what he did know was that the prophecy was almost entirely consistent with what had happened to him.
Resurrection from the dead, "awakening" after death, gaining supernatural abilities......
Although he has not led the Holy Duma Order back to the top at present, according to Levi's arrangement for him, he should not be wrong.
Everything is going for the better, as prophesied, and the only thing that is not mentioned in the parable is that in some way he and the Order of the Holy Duma have lost their freedom.
But no matter what Gallervan thought, he couldn't change what had happened.
"The reason why I haven't mentioned it to you before is only because the prophecy states that only those who come back from the dead meet the criteria of a death knight......"
"yes, okay, I got it." Galven replied calmly.
Gallervan's unusual reaction finally caught the attention of the Order Elders.
Now Galevin is the "master of the revival" of the Order of the Holy Duma, and the key to another revival cannot go wrong.
"Theodore, what's wrong?" The Elder looked at Theodore with some concern, "You don't look right today. ”
Gallervan rolled his eyes silently.
Of course something is wrong with me, especially wrong!
But how can you say this to the elders of the Order?
"It's nothing, it's just that this experience of coming back from the dead made me understand a lot of things." Gellerven shrugged, "But I think the most important thing for us right now is to take back control of my company first." ”
The Sect Elder nodded silently and didn't say anything more.
Gellerven went from an ordinary partner to a resurrection from the dead to become the head of the Order of the Holy Duma, and his personality inevitably changed somewhat, which is also very reasonable.
Anyway, in the eyes of the Church Elders, as long as it is related to the prophecy, whether it is Gallerwin's resurrection from the dead or the change in Gallerwin's personality, it is logical......
And Gellervin just mentioned that he wanted to take back control of the company, and the Sect Elders naturally knew about this matter.
During Gellerwin's "death", during this time, there were indeed some small actions in Gellerwin's company with the intention of embezzling Gellerwin's assets.
But the Church elders can't do anything.
On the one hand, the people of the Order of the Holy Duma are not good at business and the like, and they have never been involved in the operation of the Galevin family.
On the other hand, it is because the Order of the Holy Duma is not loyal to a particular person of the Gellervins, but to the Gellervins.
Unless the next generation of successors gives the order, they will never be dispatched.
Whatever the prophecy of how Galevin leads the Order of the Holy Duma to glory once again, it needs to be backed up by funds, and the immediate priority is to regain control of the company.
Before exiting the office, the Church Elder left a final message for Galven.
"Theodore, since you have come back from the dead, then you are still the contemporary successor of the Gellerven family, the Order of the Holy Duma, and you are still under your command, if we need to, we can do something, you just need to give orders."
Still, Gellervin's reply was beyond the expectations of the Order's elders.
"Okay, no need for the time being, I'll look for you if you need to."
……
After dismissing the Order's elders, Galevin sat alone in his office chair and waited for the others to come.
During this time, Gallefin was not idle, pondering the prophecy he had just mentioned by the Order's elders.
And...... Supernatural abilities that I just acquired.
Five abilities, after obtaining Galen's inheritance memory, he is naturally extremely skillful in using them.
Before Galen became a hero, he was not just a lone hero, but a legendary general of the kingdom of Demacia.
In Galen's inherited memory, the skill "courage" is not limited to Galen himself.
At the same time, it can also be applied to the soldiers under his command, which is one of the capitals that Galen can call Demacia and lead the soldiers to be invincible.
On the contrary, now that he has acquired the same abilities as Galen, he should be able to apply the ability of "courage" to the members of the Order of the Holy Duma.
It does have the ability to lead the Order of the Holy Duma back to the top.
Speaking of which, the training method of the Order of the Holy Duma does not produce assassins in the shadows, but combat priests who fight like paladins......
Thinking of this, Gallervan suddenly felt a little creepy, could it be that Dean Levi had expected this from the beginning?
If that's the case, then Dean Levi's intelligence ability is terrifying, you know, even he, the successor of the Order, doesn't know the Order's prophecy......
……
Without waiting for Gellervin's brain to make up for the horror of Levi's intelligence system, and regretting his previous arrogant and ridiculous behavior.
A knock on the office door interrupted his musings.
"Mr. Gellerven, you are back, here is a recent report of the company's operations, which you need to look at, and a statement of transfer of the company's business, which needs your signature......"
A middle-aged white male walked in with a stack of papers in his hand.
Gellerven retracted his thoughts and looked at the middle-aged man and the papers in his hand.
He knew that this middle-aged man was called Al Joseph.
It was one of his top managers who also had a lot of power in his company.
Is the picture poor dagger appearing?
Although Gellerven thought so in his heart, he did not act rashly, but took the document in the other party's hand and began to read it word by word.
At the same time, the senior executive also stood by honestly, and there was nothing unusual on his face, as if he had not acted out of the ordinary during the time of Gellerven's "death".
I have to say that people who can mix with top management really have two brushes.
Even Galevin didn't immediately see that something was wrong with the documents.
It seems that this is an ordinary business loss statement, but it is only mentioned in the document that the business is losing money and should be transferred in time.
But the road is one foot high, and the magic is one foot high.
Gallervan soon realized that something was wrong.
Although the other party has tried to make the data as close to the truth as possible, the fake is always false.
In particular, in the document, the other party mentioned that because of the investment in a piece of land in the Gotham redevelopment project, close to the Arkham Asylum in Arkham District, the price has plummeted and is still falling, and in order to stop the loss in time, the land should be transferred as soon as possible.
For Gellerven, who had just returned from Arkham Asylum, there was no trace of credibility in this so-called data!
Because the land is close to the Arkham asylum, will the price fall?
This logic is completely wrong!
Gotham's successive large-scale chaos, for various reasons, did not reach the vicinity of Arkham Asylum.
Therefore, now the price of the land near Arkham Asylum has fallen, not to mention that the price has fallen, and even the dilapidated bungalows in Arkham District have risen a lot!
Although no one promised those buyers that staying near Arkham Asylum would ensure their safety, relatively speaking, the first few times the chaos did not affect Arkham Asylum, so it is safer to stay around!
And as a top manager of a large asset, it is obviously impossible to get this market intelligence wrong!
The only possibility is that the other party wants to embezzle their assets!
A fierce glint flashed in Gellerwen's eyes, and he randomly returned to his usual demeanor.
He understands that this situation is definitely not a minority in the company!
"Has the audit department read this report?"
Now Galevin must figure out how many people in the company, or which departments, are involved in the embezzlement of his assets.
"I have seen it and passed it, because there are a lot of projects that the company needs to approve recently, and Miss Tabitha also went to the audit department to help, and she has already signed the audit documents."
The senior administrator mentioned Miss Tabitser only to gain Gellerven's trust and get him to sign the paper.
But he didn't know that from the beginning, Galevin did not trust him.
When Gellerven heard this, it dawned on him.
It turned out that his sister Tabitha went to the audit department, no wonder this report passed the audit department.
This sister of her own, although she is trustworthy, and she has good skills.
However, if it comes to the ability to run and manage a company, it is much worse, and like the people of the Order of the Holy Duma, they do not understand these things at all.
In front of this group of veteran senior executives, it's no wonder that Tabitha can play with them!
Fortunately, I came back in time, if I came back later, I am afraid that the family business saved by the Gellerven family for several generations will be divided up by these people!
In this way, the audit department, as the company's last line of defense, should not be bought by these people......
Gellerven already had a certain understanding of the current situation in the company.
Now that you have almost everything you want to know, you only need to review the documents handled by the audit department recently, and you can track down who is in the company who has moved their minds!
Then there is no need to keep pretending now!
"Well, Mr. Al Joseph, I will not pass this document, I regret it now, however, I must inform you that you have been fired!"
Faced with Gallervan's sudden attack, Al Joseph was a little stunned.
"Mr. Gellerven, I ......" Joseph tried to quibble about something.
But Gellervin didn't give him a chance to speak, and directly pointed out the flaws in the documents he had reported, so that Al Joseph was convinced.
Of course, there is no way for him to be convinced, and now that Galevin has returned, there is a way for him to disappear into Gotham quietly.
As for what comes next, it's much simpler.
Gallervin got the most recently submitted documents from the review department and went through them one by one.
He didn't beat everyone to death with a stick.
If there is nothing wrong with the document, it will naturally be signed.
If he found out the problem in the document and was suspected of embezzling the property of the Gellervin family, then I'm sorry, whether the other party intended it or not, he was dismissed by Gellerwin!
As a result, the entire company, under the leadership of Gellerven, underwent a major change in top management.
……
For the development of Gallervan's company, Levi has been paying attention to it and has no intention of interfering.
Seeing that under Gellerven's thunderous methods, not only did he regain control of the company, but also returned the company to a formal development path.
Levi nodded in satisfaction, very satisfied with his previous decision.
Galven's existence can not only contribute hundreds of millions of assets to him, but also allow him not to worry about business affairs, so that he will not sit on the throne......
You must know that when the assets reach a certain scale, it takes a lot of energy just to manage the assets in hand.
And the prophecy that the Order Order of the Holy Duma said before, Levi also saw it in his eyes.
However, when he followed the Elder back to the stronghold of the Order of the Holy Duma, he took a closer look inside and out.
He didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.
Perhaps the Order of the Holy Duma has more than a prophecy.
In the DC Universe, this kind of thing is not common, but it is definitely not unusual, and there is no value in continuing to track it down.
Anyway, Theodore Gellerwin, the "child of destiny" predicted by the other party, is in his own hands, and he can't make any waves!
Just when Levi thought that everything was about to settle, he suddenly noticed the movement of Jerome and other members of the criminal alliance.
and a team of members of the Celestial Eye who are secretly entering Gotham City......
