As soon as Crimmond finished speaking, Chris was already looking at Byron, his eyes full of disappointment.

Of course, the old mage understood what the other party meant, although there was not much business in the county of Joseph, but there were at least tens of thousands of people on the ground, and Chris wanted to use this as an opportunity to build a small church here for the Golden Church, send a few missionary priests, and develop believers.

In the Gaia plane, where there are many gods, the number of believers is the most direct way to measure the power of a god. But if the Joseph family converts to the Church of the Sun as a whole, the other churches will certainly be ostracized, and even the original Church of Courage in the territory will have to be evacuated, which is not unprecedented.

The old mage was about to speak, but Philip, who had always been the only brother who looked forward to him, had already preemptively said, "Big brother, this is ...... Is it appropriate?"

Unlike many small kingdoms and principalities, the vast Karent Empire does not have a so-called state religion, and the imperial family, although it does not restrict any positive energy to spread the faith, will never have too much to do with any church. Within the Empire, the power of the royal family, the power of the Church of the Gods, and the power of the Law Federation have always been delicately balanced, and nothing has changed in hundreds of years.

At the beginning of his reign, the founding emperor André Carbone set the tone for this: mortal affairs are in charge of mortal affairs, church affairs are in charge of church affairs, and mages are in charge of mages.

With the royal family taking the lead, the middle and high-ranking nobles of the Calente Empire naturally would not deliberately break the rules and convert the whole clan to a certain church, thus attracting the hostility of the royal family and other churches.

"I understand your concern, Philip. Instead of looking at his brother, Kremund looked at Chris, "Actually, we don't want to spread the word about it, we don't expelle any other churches, and I even invite Bishop Chris to preach in the family domain." As a thank you for your help. ”

Turning around, Chris suddenly said in surprise: "Are you serious?"

"Of course it's true. Clemmond smiled and nodded, then looked at the other priest and asked, "Bishop Martin, you don't have any opinions, do you?"

"Anyone has the right to choose their own beliefs, I have no opinion. Martin replied very calmly.

On the way here, he had already negotiated terms with Cremond. As long as the Joseph family converts to the Sun Church, then the people will naturally choose to convert in order to please the lord, even if some of them are pulled away by other churches. It doesn't hurt at all.

Although the Church of the Sun is huge, and Pelo, the god of the sun and light, is one of the main gods, in the most powerful Calente Empire in the Northland, except for a large temple in the capital Gaswell, whose influence is not bad, there are not many other peripheral churches at all, which also makes the Archpapacia very dissatisfied.

If this incident brought tens of thousands of believers to the church at once, even if it was only the lowest level of shallow believers, it would be enough for Martin to gain unprecedented prestige and favor. It is even possible to be transferred back to the Archsipal and promoted to cardinal.

To avoid surprises, Martin continued, "The Darkmoon Church has evolved from a bloody assassination brigade, and most of its followers are proficient in assassination. For the sake of safety, it is better to start the construction of our Lord's sanctuary and the refuge ceremony at once, or else it will be ......" but the sentence was not finished.

"I understand. Clemund replied immediately. Seeing that everyone was at a loss, he explained: "As long as the church is built, the sun will ...... The light of our Lord can shine here. As soon as the scum of the shadows comes closer, it will be immediately discovered. And with the support of the church, the next thing for the family will be smoother. ”

Martin was pleased with Crimund's attitude, and chimed in: "Yes, under the light of my Lord, the affairs of the Joseph family will surely be smoother." ”

The next step is to discuss some specific details, such as the fact that the personnel of the Church of the Sun can obtain the highest access and have the power of the lord in the territory, but in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they must claim to be just ordinary missionary activities.

Although Leo didn't know what was going on next for the Joseph family, it didn't prevent him from understanding that this was a complete deal, but it was indeed a win-win deal.

With the Church of the Sun, the Joseph family was able to avoid retaliation from the Darkmoon Church as much as possible, and the Church of the Sun was able to gain a large number of believers, and even used this as a springboard to carry out missionary activities throughout the Ruhr region. And from the conversation they just had, it seemed that the Church of the Sun would provide more help to the Joseph family.

"Could it be...... Sand Sea?" Leo suddenly had an idea, and soon he felt that his guess was most likely correct.

Kremund is obviously a very ambitious man, and after taking possession of the Demon Iron Mine in the Sand Sea, he has been trying to elevate his family to the rank of Marquis, but the situation is not yet clear. But if the family continues to march into the depths of the sand sea, and obtains any important resources, it will be a matter of course. In the desert, the role of the sun is obvious, and the Church of the Sun can use the Joseph family as a springboard to go deep into it and preach to other races.

Thinking of this, Leo looked at Kremund's gaze again, and was immediately full of vigilance. If the other party has to choose to deal with it just because of what happened to Isa, that's okay to say. But if Kremund had planned this qiē a long time ago, this man would have been terrible.

At the same time, Kremund turned his head and met Leo's eyes.

With a warm smile, Clemund said, "Leo, you're about to take the Joint Magic Exam, aren't you?" ”

Leo didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to talk to him, but he immediately replied respectfully, "That's right, Lord Earl." ”

Krimond shook his head and said, "With your relationship with the family, don't call me Lord Earl anymore." ”

Leo knew that he was releasing kindness, but he couldn't refuse, so he changed his words and said, "Thank you, Uncle Clemond." ”

Only then did Kremund show a satisfied expression: "If there is anything you need help with, just ask, here, you are not an outsider." Also, it will be very busy to study outside in the future, but don't forget to take the time to come back and check it out, this is your home. ”

If it hadn't been for the previous speculation, Leo would have been a little moved by Crimmond's overtures, but for now, he was just more wary. But then he laughed at himself in his heart, except for the teacher, no one knew that he had obtained the red dragon bloodline, and with his current strength, he would not let the other party have any additional plans.

"Rest assured, I will definitely come back to visit my teacher often. Leo replied from the heart. (To be continued......)
