Tension and worry abounded in the halls of the council.

No one present dared to respond to Bishop Asquesan.

Just wait for Sigrid to respond.

The premature death of the two cardinals made the nobles and ministers of the empire present look forward to this contest, but as the situation heated up, many of them began to feel afraid.

Despite the enchantment in Franklin Hall and the presence of the Great Sage Isis, they were still worried that if these two Scourge Mighty Beings did make a move, the aftermath of a close war might affect them.

Isis listened quietly, as the Great Sage of the Empire, her very existence was a symbol of authority and power.

She did not intend to meddle in the dispute within the Resurrection Church.

Or, if it is a problem that can be dealt with within the resurrection church, she is inclined to sit back and wait for the resurrection church to solve it.

"Different identities and different occasions have different things to do."

Sigrid spoke slowly,

"Some people never solve problems through rational means, and although they are adults, their hearts and behavior patterns are still like that of a one-year-old child."

She looked at Asquesan and said with a slight smile.

"Sigrid, don't want to change the topic, I accidentally killed a few of your great priests before, and you came to me to fight hard, and now I give you such a chance to kill me, but you don't dare to fight, is it because of your weak heart?"

Asquesan didn't think Sigrid was scolding him at all, and continued to ask.

"I don't have to fight, I said, see me again in a month, you can only run away like a mouse."

Sigrid's eyes only thought Asquetsang was ridiculous.

Faceless and skinless people.

"It's a pity that you're thinking too far, look at the expressions of everyone present in the Protos Empire on the seat, they have already begun to question your strength, for you, it shouldn't be difficult to make a shot, it's better to lose the vote that has been prepared for so long, but also to hide your strength, right?"

Asquesan's words were sharp and provocative, and his voice was full of disdain, putting pressure on Sigrid,

"It is because of a useless bishop like you that your saint died so miserably...... I can't blame me for this, I don't blame Anello, if I want to blame her, I blame her for being a bully Catholic. ”

These words made the Imperial people present sweat.

Asquesan's every word seemed to test Sigrid's bottom line.

Sigrid's fingers twitched in the face of such provocation, and he seemed to have done his best to remain calm and try to avoid escalation.

Everyone knows that once you do it, the consequences will be unpredictable.

However, Sigrid's continued avoidance and forbearance, correspondingly, provoked mixed reactions among the nobles and ministers seated.

More and more people began to doubt Sigrid's true strength, and the chatter in the council hall gradually became more frequent, and the expressions of doubt and doubt could not be concealed.

This is undoubtedly a huge pressure for Sigrid.

The archclericals of the Deceptive Branch could clearly feel that whatever Bishop Askesang said was true or not, his purpose had been accomplished.

Asquesan's provocation hit the nail on the head, and if all of the South's supporters were shaken, it would be devastating for Sigrid to win the next bishop vote.

If this continues, the Deceptive branch will definitely lose.

"Sigrid, it's time to prove it, we Resurrection Church can't deceive the Protos Empire."

Asquesang asked patiently, as if telling Sigrid that he was waiting for Sigrid to prove his strength to the great powers of the Protos Empire, and that he was happy to be a sparring partner.

Under the stalemate, Asquesan looked around the upper echelons of the council.

No one dared to speak for Sigrid now.

Although Sigrid's mysterious identity of the Decepticon Son may be a nobleman of the Protos Empire, it cannot be ruled out that he participated in today's election as a member of the House of Lords and was not in the seat of the Grand Priest of the Deception Branch.

But no matter where the Son of Deception was hiding, Asquesang was sure that the guy must have come to the scene today to help the isolated Sigrid.

"Asquesan, what I want to show the Protos Empire is not your usual intimidation and force, but the possibility of cooperation and coexistence, but if you want me to prove that I have the power to be above you, then I will accompany you."

Sigrid's voice grew cold, and she finished the sentence to Asquesan.

She stood in the center of the council hall, and her figure looked particularly resolute in the atmosphere of reaching the critical point, and in full view of everyone, she looked up at Isis, who was sitting on the high seat, with a hint of helpless firmness in her voice,

"Isis, Great Sage, I beg you to witness a fair contest between bishops. Let everyone here see if I, Sigrid, have the strength that a cardinal should have at this moment. ”

Sigrid responded, and Franklin Hall was in an uproar.

Although it is still not certain who is true and who is false in Asquesan and Sigrid's words at this moment, at least Sigrid is willing to fight!

Hearing this, Asquesan's expression changed color slightly, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth slowly flattened.

That's the state of being ready to kill your old enemy.

Emperor Protos, seated by Franklin III.

“……”

Isis tapped the armrest with her right hand, but didn't immediately answer, as if considering something.

The restrictions here cannot be lifted, otherwise Asquesan and Sigrid may kill many of the Empire's top brass in one fell swoop.

If you change locations, there may be a lot of changes along the way.

Helm, the heart of the Protos Empire, is extremely densely populated, and although it has a number of possible battle arenas with ancient enchantments, and her enchantment blockade and control allow the two cardinals to go all out, each choice needs to be made with fairness in mind to ensure that the impact of the battle can be minimized.

She also had to think about how to decide the winner, and intervene to end the fight if necessary.

Otherwise, if a cardinal dies in their Protos Empire, it may be a bit troublesome to wait for that Pope to come back in the future, if the Pope must bite to death and it is their Protos Empire that instigated and assisted the cardinal in the infighting, then the Resurrection Church will not be spared by the Protos Empire.

Alas, why is humanity so troublesome, I already knew that I would not allow Franklin the Great to help him protect the Protos Empire.

If one day in the future, in the film world, she can still encounter the historical projection of the holy war a hundred years ago, she will definitely advise herself like this.

Isis rested her chin in her left hand and sat cross-legged in a high-backed chair, looking down the hall in distress.
