Chapter 628: When the Election Is Underway (Asking for a Monthly Ticket)

This series of news offensives was launched, and the effect was really immediate.

With the news of that, the anger of the people against the Templars immediately subsided.

Under the direct instruction of Lord Lorraine, the wonderful performance kicked off.

In particular, when the press spokesman recited the speech with emotion, he spoke of the Paladin Perrod's actions when he sacrificed himself for others and did not care for himself.

Under the infection of righteous indignation, excitement, emotion, etc., he unconsciously fell a crystal tear from the corner of his eye.

His impassioned remarks urged people to pee...... Well, the tear-jerking speech, if Sahaf, the Minister of Information of the stupid Damu back then, came, he would have to be ashamed of himself.

You must know that when the people of the United States played hooligans, and Bush took his younger brothers to the Iraqi house to fight stupid friends, although the devils of the United States were invincible with high-tech weapons such as bricks and bricks, and the Iraqi army was defeated and retreated, but in the war of words, they did not win Sahaf once.

Listening to his speech full of leaks and infectious points, everyone present was immediately moved by him.

Otherwise, how to say that the common people are the best to fool, as long as the story is a little more exciting, what is the Holy Demon War, the two sides send undercover agents to engage in infernal affairs, and add a little lingering love story, according to the routine of the domestic TV series in the previous life, adding a little oo7 bridge, the audience who listened to the combined story was fascinated.

After the great and perfect success of the report meeting, the Vatino officially compiled a press release, and distributed the content of the whole report meeting to various places, and some local churches organized preaching, and carried out a crisis public relations to rebuild the prestige and image of the Holy See.

How much insight can ordinary people who can be deceived by a group of clergy, the peasants of this era have lived in their land all their lives, and it can be described as closed and ignorant, and they will naturally believe what the Holy See says.

In short, everyone was happy, Perod successfully shirked his responsibility, the Holy See saved face, and ordinary people had an addiction to listening to stories.

And the high-ranking members of the Holy See have just appeared, although the Holy See has existed for a thousand years, and everyone here is also a qualified old rascal who has obtained a certificate of the fourth or sixth grade. When you meet honest people, you can even trick them into toothbrushes and underwear.

But in the face of this ironclad fact, they also had to admit that their Taoism was still too far worse than that hateful white face.

There is such a peerless elite in the world who can turn a bad thing into a good thing and blow a good thing to the sky. As soon as the upper lip touched the lower lip, the end was reversed black and white, confusing the public. The person who said it could not distinguish the truth from the false.

Sure enough, he is a capable minister who governs the world and a peerless hero.

Everyone also secretly swore that people like this would never let him mix into the ranks of the Holy See no matter what, otherwise everyone would be robbed of their jobs by him and would have to go to the streets to be beggars.

In fact, for Lorraine, these tricks are too simple, and in the previous life, those masters played leftovers. For Lorraine, compared with the directors and screenwriters of domestic TV series, these old gods of the Holy See are scum with less than five combat effectiveness.

And the people sighed incessantly, it turned out that we had misunderstood those knights, who had been making selfless contributions to the happiness and peaceful life of the people behind their backs

Those who fight behind the sun, they are in the hidden front of the unknown world, heroically against the evil Dark Council.

And despite the misunderstanding, they never argued. What a noble soul this is

What is priceless loyalty, what is singable and crying, this is clearly their portrayal

He deserves to be a paladin.

And Perrod, who is the head of the Paladin, is also worth a lot and his reputation is growing. In this theft case, he successfully made a name, and now the whole big 6 knows that there is such a character named Perrod, who specializes in fighting evil.

As for the middle, although there are losses in the middle, they are all within the range of bearability. It is also a price that must be paid.

It's not that as the saying goes: 'I can't let my children trap the wolf, I can't bear the daughter-in-law, and I can't trap the hooligans.'" ’

Those are affordable losses, in Lorraine's words, "as if you were paying for tuition".

Just this lightly fluttering sentence completely covered up the looting of the Holy See Museum and the lost true image of the true cross.

And those losses became the tuition fees of the Holy See to be handed over to Lorraine and Leo.

As soon as someone asks questions, some people will jump out and ask violently, what are your intentions, and why do you want to destroy our excellent situation of stability and unity at this moment?

Ha, I see, you scoundrel, you must have been sent by the Dark Council to disturb my light and holy See

In this way, everyone will obediently shut their mouths.

Immediately, a group of knights took advantage of the victory to pursue, and for a better reputation, they arrested some of the bullies and ruffians in the nearby countryside who usually acted as gangsters and harassed their neighbors, and killed them indiscriminately.

He also casually pointed out some bandits and robbers, saying that they were the accomplices of the thieves who "traveled alone for thousands of miles", and they were arrested and hanged with a rope, and then hung on the top of the city to show the public.

Then they told the people in a righteous and stern manner that these were the spies sent by the wicked Council of Darkness, and the accomplices of the great thieves.

Although they were deeply hidden, they could not escape the eyes of the Templars for insight and justice

As long as the people have achieved justice, they don't care what the method of achieving justice is, and when they see the heads of the bullies who usually run rampant in the township fall to the ground, and the law and order in the nearby area improves instantly, they all applaud: 'No wonder that guy has been doing evil.'

It turned out to be a spy sent by the High Priest of the Undead to play our Infernal Affairs.

The Templars uncovered their spy organization in time, unleashed their earth-shattering conspiracy and trickery, saved the lives of hundreds of millions of people, and protected hundreds of millions of dollars worth of public and private property. ’

At the moment, the reputation of the Templars has increased dramatically.

Borrowing someone else's head, preserving his position, and earning a reward for his merits, the Templars not only reported Jun's grace and blocked the people's mouth, but also increased their prestige.

There were even officers of the Knights Templar who sighed in private, how nice it would be if there was another thief who traveled thousands of miles alone, Ali Baba, and came to the Holy City to steal it

Everyone will have the opportunity to be promoted again.

Anyway, what the Holy See lost is public property, and all it gets back is its own spoils. No wonder those gangs are full of praise when they mention Lorraine, it is indeed the leader of everyone who gets rich.

And since Lorraine came up with that plan, Perrod has thrown himself to the ground and obeyed his words.

This honest soldier has been fighting for most of his life, and finally realized, why these hot-blooded and heroic knights are not as good as those damned civil officials, they can't get the right to speak within the Holy See, and they can only drink soup when others eat meat.

Those guys played with intrigues, and they were really ruthless and vicious.

Especially that damn white face, it's really a belly of bad water. And it's like a demon, and its grasp of people's hearts is terrifying.

Rao has lived most of his life, and his experience in dealing with things is also rich, but he is not on the same scale as him at all, and he is completely eaten to death by this son.

Perrod made up his mind that when he returned, he must remind his descendants that he was far away from this Lord of Lorraine.

At the same time, he also began to help Lorraine privately as agreed, and frequently made appointments with the cardinals.

In the free time of the campaign, everyone first chatted together, and then went to the Royal Hotel for a meal together.

Then we will go to the Grand Theater to listen to the play for a while, and then we will go to the nightclub together to drink a drink and sing a song......

Originally, everyone had to disguise themselves together and go to a town twenty miles away from the holy city to find a girl to talk about life, but considering the reputation of the tigresses in Lord Luo's house, everyone still regrettably gave up.

As the relationship gets closer, everyone's feelings are getting stronger and stronger.

And all of them are qualified politicians. Under the glittering golden offensive, even if they have the revenge of killing their father, they can easily resolve it. Not to mention that it was just a battle of wills before.

Especially after drinking too much wine, no matter how sanctimonious the cardinal archbishop was, he also took off his disguise, holding a wine bottle in one hand and singing 'My Sun'......

Everyone's righteous anger can even give up their kidneys, and things like this magic horse vote are not a problem.

As the election proceeded in an orderly manner, Lorraine received more and more votes, and in the end, with the number of votes received by bribery, Hillmelia passed the second election smoothly.

After that fierce competition, there are now only four people left to be elected. But Lorraine and Hillmelia are still not very popular among these people.

Although this situation is not optimistic, it is also a helpless thing.

After all, the phenomenon of gangs and factions in the Holy See is strict, and although there is constant infighting among them, in many cases, they are still unanimous with the outside world.

Lorraine can only fight the ideas of the cardinals who are outside the faction first.

In addition, the Maple Leaf Danlin Academy does not make up too many of the cardinal archbishops. Although they unanimously voted in favor of Schilla, it was not enough to win an absolute majority.

In addition to this, there is an extremely important weakness, and Schillelia is a woman.

Those traditional and stubborn old fellows claim that under the sun of the God of Light, all beings are equal, men and women are equal...... And so on and so forth, but if you want everyone to vote for Sylmelia, let her be the Pope, and let that woman, not a girl, command everyone like a donkey, and everyone will not be able to stand it.

Lord Luo held a banquet in the most expensive and slaughtering hotel in the Holy City for three days, but none of the stubborn old guys showed up.

At the beginning of the day, Lorraine stood on the upper floor of the hotel, looking at the scenery outside.

Perrod was also stunned next to him, after all, he invited these people, but all of them didn't give face, let alone coming, and they didn't even say hello.

He couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, these old guys really didn't know how to lift. All of them respectfully sent the invitations here. You also received the letter, and did not say anything at that time. But now it can't come, and it's obvious that it's a pigeon to tease people.

A bunch of bastard stuff

Even if I just find an excuse and send an attendant to write a two-and-a-half-inch note and send it over, it can be regarded as a favor from them. What's going on now?

Just as he was thinking about it, on the other side, Vera, Leo. Bai copied it.

They didn't care what the bishop was taught by the dog, the world was big, and the food was the biggest, and under the leadership of Vera, when they saw something delicious on the table, they swept it away, and they ate a mess of cups and plates. And when he encountered something delicious, he shouted and asked the waiter to keep adding dishes and adding dishes.

Perrod looked at Lorraine with some apprehension, he knew that although this lord was smiling, with a mouth and white teeth exposed, he looked harmless to humans and animals, but in fact, he was the most bastard, and he played hooligans, and the methods were endless.

Moreover, the most terrifying thing is that this man is ruthless, if anyone offends him, he may not even be able to save his life. And Perrod has also heard that there is a kind of person in this world, and the brighter the smile, the more ferocious the murderous person comes.

Lorraine seemed to feel the doubt in his heart, turned around, smiled at him, and said, "My lord." Since none of them came. Let's eat it ourselves. This table costs a lot of money. Waste is always bad. ”

As he spoke, he pulled a chair and sat down, and then forked his left and right knives, intending to attack the roast duck in front of him.

Perrod shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Earl, it's a shame that you are still in such a good mood, and those people are all old, but they are so teasing people." Without a little politeness, it's really a dog who has lived to be old. ”

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Count, this matter is on me. When I turn around, I will go to them, and even if I drag them, I must drag them. ”

Lorraine smiled and said, "Your Excellency, you are wrong. This is a good thing. ”

Perrod was stunned.

Lorraine said: "These people are also experienced as cardinal archbishops, and they don't know how to be polite, but they don't even say hello, what does this mean?"

Perrod looked at Lorraine hesitantly, wondering in his heart if this gentleman was confused?

Lorraine smiled, then stretched out her hand, pointed to the chair next to her, and invited Perold to sit down, and then said, "This shows that they don't take us seriously." ”

Perrod sighed, he is now a person in the same boat as this Lord of Lorraine, so he naturally looks unlucky to him, if he doesn't do well in this election, I'm afraid he won't have a good life in the future.

Lorraine said as she picked up her glass, poured Perrod a glass of red wine, and put the bottle back into the ice cube bucket.

Perrod shook his head and said puzzledly, "Is this a good thing?"

Lorraine picked up her glass, looked through it, looked at the hanging light, and said, "Of course it's a good thing." They don't take us in their eyes, so they just paralyze them, coax them, and finally clean them up.

Don't we all do this when we fight? Let your enemies despise you, and you'll be half the winner. ”

"If you see this as a war...... Perrod immediately slapped his forehead, suddenly realized, and said secretly in his heart: I really can't think of my brain, I can't compare to him

Although this paladin is not interested in politics or anything, he has been doing war for a lifetime.

After more than ten years of leading the Knights Templar in the crusade to the east and west, it is not without experience in warfare, and if this is replaced by the perspective of war, this is indeed a good thing.

But then he was a little shocked: this young man actually saw this as a war

Lorraine looked at him and didn't say anything. Just gritted his teeth and smiled slightly. Then he looked at the empty seat, and was secretly ruthless in his heart: the face was given by others, but the face was earned by himself. These guys are shameless, don't blame the lord for being ruthless

Wait and see, St. Paul's will clean you up first.

xxxxxxx

In the box at the other end of the hotel, several cardinals were sitting together, drinking wine and laughing at Lorraine's actions.

In order to hide people's eyes and ears, none of them wore the iconic red robes, but they were dressed as ordinary people, but for those who were familiar with the situation in the Holy See, the huge ring coat of arms worn by the old men in Tong Guò could tell their identities at a glance.

"Dear Lord Patrick," said a chubby old man, raising his glass to the eagle-nosed old man in the middle, and smirked, "Your Excellency, you are really a god, and you know that they can't invite anyone." ”

The eagle-nosed old man smiled slightly, picked up his wine glass with some reserve, touched it lightly with the other party, and then took a sip and said, "This is actually nothing." Even for us, using that girl as an opponent was a bit of a problem. Neither she nor Obakhm behind her can become the climate.

In the history of the Holy See, there has never been a woman who can become a pope, in fact, a woman can become a cardinal archbishop, which seems to me to be a great miracle in the history of the Holy See.

It's a pity that the Holy See is a place that pays attention to seniority and strength, and it doesn't just depend on who your father is.

Didn't I say, who of our successive popes did not have a few descendants, but the one who succeeded in inheriting the position?"

Everyone present exchanged a look with each other and smiled knowingly. They had all heard that the girl was the illegitimate son of the current Pope.

Patrick

Looking at the appearance of everyone, I suddenly realized that there was something wrong with this kind of discussion.

Today you can sit here and talk about the current pope, and tomorrow you can talk about the next pope.

That is, if one day they become pope, then these people will also talk about themselves secretly.

Since Patrick regards the position of the pope as a bag, of course, he must now be strict with himself as the pope.

The light in his eyes flickered twice, and he couldn't help but doubt, and secretly said in his heart: If he really became the Pope, then who among these people here would secretly talk about himself behind his back?

Although he has not yet become the pope, he does not think that there is anything wrong with it.

Because it was this suspicious and suspicious personality that finally made him overpower those colleagues and become the cardinal archbishop.

Although he thought this in his heart, he didn't show it, just quietly observed everyone for a few moments, and then changed the topic and said, "Our real enemies should be the other two parties, Jerome Red and Lawrence Red. ”

Someone next to him interjected unrealistically, and said, "But the bank-opening builder that Hillmelia mentioned is very tempting." Our finances are in great crisis. ”

Patrick looked at the man quietly, and then drew a big cross for the guy in his mind.

He said coldly, "Open a bank? That's a good idea." But there are more banks in the world, and we don't have to cooperate with Flying Eagle. We could have gotten rid of them and find someone else to do it ourselves.

I believe that as long as the wind is released, how many people will have to come to us with money. As long as the power is in our hands, are we afraid that we will not be able to find a partner, and besides, the Flying Eagle Group is not a good thing, and I really doubt that we can make money by cooperating with them. ”

Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads in agreement, and there was a burst of amazement at Patrick's foresight.

Patrick nodded modestly, and then said, "Gentlemen, our real opponents should be the other two parties, Jerome in the Red and Lawrence in the Red. They are our fierce rivals.

Jerome Red is old, but he is extremely senior. Moreover, he is also from the Holy See's Bright Academy, and enjoys great prestige among the cardinal archbishops from our Bright Academy. But he was too old after all.

And Lawrence is red, relatively young, but this qualification is not one and a half points worse than others. Especially since he has been mediocre all these years. He was just pushed out to make up the numbers, and they really didn't have any decent characters on their side. ”

Someone next to him hurriedly said, "How can these people compare with you." Master Patrick, you have to have qualifications, you have to have grades. Over the years, he has worked hard to preach and contributed countless funds to the Holy See. Speaking of the choice of the Pope, who else is you?"

The crowd also agreed.

Patrick smiled and waved his hand gently, "Well, you can't say that. When Calados was alive, he was widely recognized as the number one successor. ”

Someone next to him laughed and said, "My lord, you can't be so modest. Although Calados was jumping happily at that time, he was biting people everywhere, raiding and destroying people. It looks powerful, but who doesn't know that he is a fierce dog fed by His Majesty the Pope. In fact, he was pushed out as a target.

Although everyone flatters him on the surface, who doesn't hate him behind him.

Later, he didn't have long eyes, and stabbed the tip of His Majesty's heart, and then he was made by someone, and he died without knowing it, didn't that Majesty Xià also say a word?"

Patrick smiled, and then said: "It's a pity, although Shilmelia Red is younger, but it has to be successful, and it has educated countless orcs, and it is necessary to have the ability and ability, and at a young age, it has already cultivated a powerful holy power and high skills."

This can only be described as a genius. Speaking of which, he is also a rare outstanding figure in the history of our Holy See.

But it's a pity."

He let out a long sigh and said, "It's a pity that she is a woman, if she is a man, then it is really a promising future, I just give her the position of this pope, so what's the matter?"

"That's your fault," someone next to him shouted.

The rest of the people immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

At this point, the man continued: "My lord, it's not me criticizing you, your attitude is really wrong. As the teacher and guide of the world, the Holy See is a blessing to billions of living beings, how can you be so humble?

At this time, for the sake of the livelihood of the world and the glory of the God of Light, you should be brave and brave in doing things. Undertake your due obligations, only in this way can you live up to the trust and expectations of our believers

If you keep resigning like this, it will not only chill the hearts of all of us, but also the hearts of the people of the world.

My lord."

The voice and appearance of those words are extremely touching.

When everyone heard what he said, they couldn't help but want to vomit for a while, but they had to echo it.

Patrick glanced at the man appreciatively, and said secretly in his heart: This Fisse Ken is a very good young man, although the sycophants are a little disgusting, but he has vision, can talk and do things, and is very promising

In vain, I discerned people and dug him out of the old men of Calados.

Although he is a little nostalgic, always thinking about avenging Calados, and often runs to the old mansion when he has nothing to do, but this shows that he values love and righteousness, and knows how to repay his kindness, which is a good thing.

He laughed out loud and said, "Well, it's really my fault."

As he spoke, he raised the wine glass in his hand and said loudly: "Gentlemen, for the sake of the people, for the common people, and for the glory of the God of Light, let's have a toast together." ”

The crowd did not dare to slack off, and they stood up one after another, and then raised their wine glasses high, and said, "For the glory of the God of Light."

Then he drank all the wine in the glass, and finally slammed the glass to the ground, smashing all the magnificent wine glasses into pieces, bursting into crystal shards.

By this time, the night was getting deeper.

Lorraine had returned to her quarters and wrote a few words on a piece of paper, "Implement the third plan." ”

He tied the note to the pigeon's leg next to him, then pushed open the window and threw the pigeon out.

The white carrier pigeon flew into the air and let out a series of cries of displeasure in response to Lorraine's request to work overtime at night.

It made a slight discourse in the sky, then flapped its wings and disappeared into the night.
