Chapter 627: Canvassing Votes (Asking for Monthly Tickets)

In the days that followed, the cardinals began voting on the primaries.

This is only the primary election, just like the election of the president of the United States, from the many candidates to choose the most likely to reach the top.

This is only the first level in the whole election, and it is also the one that has the most electees who have been struck out, and it is completely dependent on the votes. Even though Schillea's father is the current pope and her teacher is Obakhim, she can't skip the primary and go straight to the next round.

At this point, it was evident that the strength of the papal diehards had come, and although Sillmelia's plan was detailed, feasible, and lucrative, she won by a narrow majority.

Lorraine and St. Paul's relationship is both spending money and running a relationship, which is why Silmelia is guaranteed to pass the test.

Just like the most famous college entrance examination in a certain place in a certain time and place, students are tested in June, and parents are tested in July. At the meeting, it was Hillelia who was tested, and she did a beautiful job, drawing a big pie for the cardinals present, and whetting their appetites, and when the voting stage came, it was Lorraine and St. Paul's that were tested.

Fortunately, Lord Lorraine's friends are all over the world, and there are many big names in the Holy See who can hook up with Lord Lorraine and call him brothers, such as Privy Archbishop Mazovia, Chief Paladin Perrod, and so on, who have business dealings with the Flying Eagle Group.

At the same time, the knights of the Holy See also began to distribute official documents of sea fishing, sending notes to the branches below, as well as to the various empires.

They were asked to help capture a terrifying thief named 'Thunder Light Alone', and offered a hefty bounty for it.

Since they couldn't find the slightest handle of the people of Lorraine, many people believed that Leo and his baby elephant were involved in the theft of the Grand Museum, but the theft of the real cross found no suspicious signs of Lorraine and Leo, and the people in the Holy See are now beginning to wonder if there was really a problem with the original judgment?

Maybe there really is such a one-legged thief in this world called 'Lonely Journey'. Stealing something, and presumably leaving a text to blame them for Lorraine.

With the issuance of the official document, the whole continent was boiling, which was beyond the limit of everyone's imagination, someone actually ran to the Holy See to steal something, and ran away after really succeeding, this is an unprecedented thing~

Although the Holy See was forced to save face and did not announce what had been stolen, this was the Holy See, the abode of the God of Light, even if it was a brick or a straw stick that was stolen, it would be a great shame.

Immediately, countless bounty hunters, reasoning experts, forensic experts, CSI, criminal reasoning real rooms, and so on all heard the news.

Like locusts, they flocked to the holy city, looking for clues. And then catch that idol-like ...... Uh, that abominable thief, bring him to justice. And he can also become famous in one fell swoop, and the world knows it. And you can also claim a generous bonus.

If you dare to steal in the Holy See, you are against the believers of the whole continent, and 'Walking Alone for Thousands of Miles' is really famous.

Such a loud name, but can't take out the stinky fart, Leo is very disappointed about this, the name of 'Thousands of Miles Alone' is now very loud, and within a few days, news has come that several dozen people claiming to be 'Miles Alone' have been arrested in various places.

Leo is extremely angry at these people who dare to use his name, and is ready to learn from Lorraine, and also choreograph a drama of a thief 'walking alone' or something, to justify his name.

And all the knights of the Holy See were all scolded by the common people: What is the use of asking you for these rice buckets?

When it matters, it's not even as good as a pig. Even if an old sow encounters someone stealing its cubs, she will fight to the death. And you guys actually let people run to the Holy See to steal things, and let people run away, it's really the best rice bucket~

Those knights of the Holy See were even walking gray and slippery with their tails between their legs during this time.

Although the top level of the Holy See did not directly exert pressure, and did not set up a task force headed by Cardinal So-and-so to order a deadline to solve the case.

But in the face of surging public opinion and discussion, the guards of the Holy City felt great pressure.

The paladin commander Perrod finally couldn't bear it anymore, and on this day, he prepared a generous gift and came to Lord Luo's residence.

Speaking of this, Perrod is also bitter, just like Yang Bailao, who borrowed usury.

At the beginning, I regretted that I shouldn't have heard the news that Nai An sold land to make money, so under the urging of my mother-in-law at home, I ran over to buy land and buy a house regardless of the urgency.

Although land is hard currency, the highest symbol of wealth, this investment is really not

Money is not in hand, and the Flying Eagle Company provides low-interest loans. The interest rate is low, and people hate to borrow another 30 million or 50 million.

People don't get together, and the Flying Eagle Company helps recruit half-orcs to work. And all of them are strong laborers. They can eat, but they are all very capable of working.

The food was not enough, so the Flying Eagle Company helped to buy it and transported it to the ground for settlement, completely ignoring the consumption.

There is no need to worry about the sales of the products produced in the future. Flying Eagle will make a unified acquisition, and will also give an absolutely reasonable price......

All the qiē looks so beautiful, as long as it is a light signature, all things can be done by Feiying Company for you.

Whether you think of it or not, as long as you encounter difficulties, Feiying Company can solve them for you.

The result?

and other things were bought with the warm and considerate help of the Flying Eagle Company. It's almost done. This looks back.

My Father~

This time I got on the thief ship, and I couldn't get off again.

All the wealth and wealth accumulated by his ancestors over several lifetimes were thrown into the farm handicraft workshop in Naian.

Although the profits of the prospect seem to be very good, although the input is high, the output is also high, as long as you work hard for five or six years, you can pay off the loan, and then all that is left is profit, and there is also a farm factory with rich assets, so as long as there are no profligate losers, this piece of industry is enough for future generations to live well.

But...... But now, those loan investments are tightly wrapped around their necks like a Spanish noose. Le's self was out of breath. If you're not careful, you'll go bankrupt right now. Become a pauper.

When the time comes, even a donkey will not be able to afford it. What else is there to talk about the dignity and pride of paladins?

Perrod is also a lawsuit now, and as long as he thinks about it, he feels a headache.

Such a large loan, but don't make any demon moths.

As soon as he reached the door, Lorraine had already greeted him.

Lorraine greeted him warmly and said, "Paladin, look at you, come and come." It's so amazing to still bring so many gifts, it's so out-of-the-box......"

Perrod looked at Lorraine, couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then said a few words.

The two returned to the house and sat down.

Seeing that everyone had retreated, Perrod turned back to the topic and said, "Earl, I have always supported you, and we don't tell lies. I don't go around in circles with you either. I'm here today because I have something to ask for. ”

Lorraine was stunned for a moment, and said: "Lord Paladin, your old man has always been highly respected, if there is anything, give me a note, and I will definitely do it." ”

Perrod slammed the teacup in his hand on the table and said, "Okay, with your words, that's easy." ”

He paused for a moment, looked around, and there was indeed no one, so he came over and lowered his voice: "Earl, you stole it......

Lorraine raised an eyebrow.

Perrod hurriedly changed his words and said, "Well, those things you accidentally picked up, can you take out some, don't need more, just a few, and let us have an explanation first." It's really noisy now. If we don't make any progress, isn't it a joke? ”

Lorraine's eyes widened in surprise and said, "Lord Perrod, although I have always respected you, you can't talk nonsense." Although we know each other very well, I will sue you for slander if we talk like this. ”

Perrod grinned at the moment and said, "Earl, my good lord, let's stop playing." Who doesn't know that you did this case.

On the night of the theft of the Grand Museum, a little fat man was seen wandering around the Grand Museum with a baby elephant. The whole Vatino is just that little elephant.

It was late at night, and you don't tell me that he was sleepwalking. Besides, we all know the heroic character of Leo's grandfather.

And someone dug up a lot of debris under the ruins of the original hotel......"

Lorraine couldn't help but jump in his heart, and secretly said in his heart: I didn't expect them to work so hard. Although they didn't know about Vera's spatial ring yet, it was already very close to the truth.

He stubbornly said, "So what? What about the clutter? Who rules that you are not allowed to bury clutter?" Besides, you don't have any evidence to say that we buried it. Maybe it was the one-legged thief who deliberately cut off the stolen goods and framed him. ”

Perrod slapped the table and said angrily, "Count, we are in the same boat. Believe it or not, I'm going to shake out the fact that you sent someone to assassinate Cardinal Calados?"

Lorraine looked at his angry appearance, couldn't help but sigh, and said, "My lord, my lord." You degassed. Don't be angry. I know you're also a qualified rascal. There aren't too many bad people like us in the world, and we can't kill each other. ”

Perrod snorted coldly, then sat down and said, "No matter what happens today, you have to give me an explanation, otherwise I won't leave." You have to be considerate and considerate of us. ”

Lorraine looked at him, couldn't help but sigh again, and said, "My lord, what's the use of you tossing me like this......? Uh, bah, bah. ”

He found that he almost showed his mouth, and hurriedly took a few sips, and then said cautiously: "What if, what I said is what if." If we stole it, but even if we return it, can you get one?"

Perrod froze for a moment, sat up straight in an instant, his eyes flashed with a strange brilliance, and said, "What do you mean?"

Lorraine spread her hands and said, "I mean, even if we stole it, we will return it." You and your knights have found something good. But will you be able to settle down? Won't the Holy See hold you accountable for your lax guards and lost your things?"

Perrod chuckled in his heart. He knew that even if he tried his best to find something, but because he was not strictly guarded in advance, at least a criticism of dereliction of duty would not be able to escape.

He said with a grim face, "Well...... As long as you can get things back, no matter how you pursue them afterwards. I'm also going to take it all in. Is it a big deal, that is, early retirement? ”

After saying that, he let out a long sigh, and then looked at Lorraine with some resentment, and said, "Even if I am unlucky, who let us all sit in the same boat, if the ship sinks, I will also go bankrupt." ”

Lorraine couldn't help but laugh.

Perold looked at Lorraine's smiling appearance, at first he was very puzzled and a little angry, but then his face turned red, and finally he suddenly realized.

He stood up and said, "Count, you must teach me. ”

Lorraine also hurriedly got up and said, "My lord, my lord, you can see what you say." As you just said, we are in the same boat, and if I don't help you, who will I help?"

Perrod immediately relieved himself.

Lorraine grinned: "Shrimp shrimp, shrimp ......"

Perrod looked at Lorraine's smile, immediately smiled bitterly, and said, "Earl, earl, my dear earl, we have something to say, don't laugh like that, okay?"

To tell you the truth, I've also been through a lot of battles, and I've crawled out of the pile of dead people several times. But the way you smile like that makes my heart straight. ”

Lorraine couldn't help but be a little bored, originally thought that this kind of treacherous smile like Brother Cao would be very marketable, at least to make fun of it on the side, and say, 'Why is the general laughing?'.

He froze and said, "Actually, I also have a favor that I want you to help me with." ”

Perrod looked at Lorraine's appearance, and also sighed, and said, "Earl, if you have anything to say, just say it." I also know that you are the master of the rabbit and the eagle. If you are asked to do something, it will not work without benefits. ”

Lorraine touched her nose awkwardly and said, "My lord, don't say that." After all, I also paid in the labor. And you can also inquire about the people who ask me to do things, is there one thing that I didn't help them do? Or do you like those who say beautiful things but don't do things? ”

Perrod snorted coldly and said, "Alright, alright." Who doesn't know that you, Lord Luo, are bad water drop by drop, but when you come up with bad water, it's like a fountain, and it never stops. My brain is too far behind yours, so if you have anything to say, just say it. ”

Lorraine sweated a little, and then said, "Actually, that's the way it happened. You know our Cardinal Hilmelia over there, Anne?"

Perrod snorted and said, "You know, isn't that your lover? ”

Lorraine sighed and said, "My lord, what you said is really straightforward. ”

Perrod gritted his teeth and said, "No way, who made us a big boss, except for drawing a knife and cutting people, we have no other skills, and we don't have so many bad intentions." Of course, there is something to say. ”

Lorraine knew that the old guy did it on purpose, but he didn't think it either, and said, "That's right, she plans to run for the Pope." And it's already past the primaries. ”

Perrod was stunned for a moment, then leaned over and whispered: "I heard gossip that she is the illegitimate daughter of His Majesty the Pope, is this true?"

Lorraine snorted and said, "This...... I can't go into too much detail about this. It's ...... anyway Haha, hahaha...... It's a nice day. ”

Perrod looked at Lorraine's expression, understood it instantly, and muttered, "God, God is above, so this is true." In vain, I used to treat Bao Duolu as a good person, but I didn't expect him to betray him early on. This old guy is really hiding deeply~"

Lorraine was keenly aware of his speech problem, and said secretly in his heart: "Why do you say the word 'also'? It seems that this old guy didn't do a good job back then."

He didn't break it, and continued: "My lord, you also know, she is a weak woman, and it is not easy to become the Pope. So see if you can help. You are an old man who has been working in the Vatino for twenty years.

I know that the cardinals have a pretty good personal relationship with you. ”

Lorraine, this is not without purpose.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are organizations, there are factions.

The cardinal archbishops of the Holy See are also numerous, and the phenomenon of forming factions is extremely strict, and it can be said that the factions are complex and there are many mountains.

The east looks down on the west, and the west looks down on the north.

The Maple Leaf Danlin Academy looks down on the colleges directly under the Holy See, the colleges directly under the Holy See, and the local church schools.

And then they can't afford to be ...... without a diploma

Those from aristocratic families looked down on the bastards, and the bastards looked down on the mud legs.

In the end, everyone joined forces to deal with the Holy See.

In this case, Obakhim's personal prestige alone is not enough to guarantee that Shirmel will win the second election.

We have to get more people, more votes. That's hope.

St. Paul's is working on this event, and Lorraine can't be easy.

Perrod looked at Lorraine and felt a pain in his head at the moment. He said, "Earl, in this kind of matter, we knights must be strictly neutral. This is the rule that has been handed down from the Great Council of Light. ”

Lorraine smiled: "Yes, yes, it's the rules, I know." I'm just asking you to help introduce you, find some like-minded friends, and nothing else.

Did I canvass for votes? No, I don't.

Did I bribe the election? Who saw it?

It's just normal to sit together and talk about the weather, talk about life and other gossip. You don't have to worry. ”

Perrod hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, saying, "Okay, I'm out anyway." Isn't it just to meet people and talk? I can't do anything else, but it's still okay. ”

Lorraine slapped the table and said, "Okay, happy~"

Perrod held military power and had a very high status in the Holy See, and no matter which cardinal archbishop had to give him a little face. As long as he stepped forward, things would be much easier.

Perrod looked at Lorraine and said, "Okay, now sue me for your way, I'm curious, what can you do, you don't have to return things, and you can help me get out of trouble?"

Lorraine gritted her white teeth and said, "My lord, you come up with your ears." ”

Perrod gave Lorraine a puzzled look, then leaned his head over.

Lorraine whispered: "So, so, so ......"

While listening, Perrod changed color, and said secretly in his heart: This ...... This damn scumbag. Sure enough, it's a lot of tricks. In the blink of an eye, such a vicious trick came out.

It seems that my life has been in vain. Even the slap can't catch up with this hooligan. I have to wait for the next life to watch it again......

×××××××

Early the next morning, news broke out of the Knights Templar.

"A tragedy of iron and blood, salute to the warriors. We have uncovered a devastating conspiracy by the Dark Council against the Holy See. ”

Under the leadership of the Paladin Perrod, the Templars played a fine tradition and an excellent style, with a high sense of responsibility and firm faith, not afraid of hardships, bloody battles, day and night, without sleep. He has been working hard and has finally cracked the spy organization that the Dark Council has buried deep inside the Holy See.

In one fell swoop, dozens of dark councils were captured and installed in the Shaolin abbot network of the Vati's post-80s, and won a big victory that attracted worldwide attention.

It is said that when the High Priest of the Dead heard the news that his spy network had been cracked, he immediately sighed: It is easy to destroy the mountains, but it is difficult to destroy the Knights Templar.

This operation is enough to set back the spy intelligence work of the Dark Council by fifty years. (Anyway, no one has the courage to run to the High Priest of the Undead to verify whether his old man has said this, so of course, everyone is blowing as much as they want.) ）

But despite all these achievements, the glorious knights of our Templar Order still play to their old traditions, without arrogance or impatience. Keep fighting.

The champion knights vowed to take back all the treasures they had stolen from their enemies, and capture the undead high priest's proudest disciple and assistant.

That's right~

It's the infamous one-legged thief, 'Thousands of Miles Alone' Lei Guangguang. That is the most important and powerful general under the undead Da Nais~

At that time, Lord Perrod, the head of the Holy Knights, led a group of knights to block the thunder light on the dark bridge, and the two sides launched a bloody battle, and the sky was dark, and the sun and moon were dark.

Later, although the Knight of Perrod used his special move 'Lushan Ascending Dragon Overlord', burning the small universe and severely damaging the thunder light, at this moment, the enemy's response had already come.

At this time, the enemy was outnumbered, but in order to cover his men, the lord finally tried all his strength. It is also vomiting three liters of blood. But he still kept fighting.

The frightened enemies are all terrified.

In desperation, the despicable thief said, 'Pleasant goat, I will definitely ...... Uh, phew.

The thief said, 'Wait for me, I'll be back.' Then he fled with all his men and horses like a coward, not even daring to look at the majestic lord like a god......
