Chapter 67: Enough Sugar-Coated Shells (Three Watches)
Early in the morning, Taylor waited at the east gate with a group of people and horses of the Holy New Army.
With the dawn of dawn, the Knights of the Holy Rose, who had been marching day and night, finally arrived at the Holy Capital, the stronghold of the Holy Light God Cult.
And their leader, Vanessa, hurried to the east gate with two or three Templar councilors.
Looking at her shabby team, Taylor looked back at his brothers who were neatly aligned behind him, and suddenly showed a disdainful smile.
Vanessa frowned, "Taylor, what are you doing here?" ”
"Call me Chief Taylor!"
Taylor didn't care about his former classmates at all, and his chin raised slightly: "Standing in front of you now is the commander-in-chief of the Holy New Army jointly authorized by the Holy Kladin Order and the Holy Light Holy See!"
My rank is the same as that of the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Paladin!
Pay attention to the tone of your voice! Your Excellency Vanessa, Acting President of the Temple! ”
Vanessa's eyes narrowed, and her instincts told her that the other party was not good. This Holy New Army, she has only recently heard others mention it.
"Chief Taylor, what are you doing here with your soldiers?"
"Pick up, of course. Instead, you, Your Excellency the Acting President, what are you doing here? ”
Vanessa walked over to Helen, the deputy head of the Knights of the Holy Rose, "I'm here to pick up my members of the Knights. ”
"Your Excellency, I think you've made a mistake."
Taylor walked up to the members of the Holy Rose Knights with his hands behind his back: "The Holy Rose Knights are an independent knight order under the Holy Knights' Order.
It belongs to the Order, to the Goddess of Light!
It's not your personal soldier!
You're not qualified to meet them here. Only I, as a high-ranking member of the military department, am qualified to welcome these heroic girls! ”
Vanessa frowned: "The tone of your voice is really very similar to that nasty person!" Did he let you come? ”
"It was the Order's military discipline that brought me here!"
Taylor was full of confidence at the moment: "Your Excellency Vanessa, don't forget! You are coming back now in the name of the Special Envoy of the Mission.
Although you have become the Acting President of the Temple, your rank and status in the military are still banned.
Why, want to fish in troubled waters? ”
Vanessa sneered: "Of course not, I expected this a long time ago!"
I am now requesting the invocation of the Title VII resolution of the Temple-Holy See Agreement in my capacity as Acting President of the Temple.
When the Templar Master feels that the safety of himself or a member of the Templar is in danger, he may recruit Paladins from the Knights Templar to protect his own safety.
I'm going to hire them, and if they want to, not even the Order's Ministry of War and the Papal Palace can stop them! ”
"I expected."
Unhurried, Taylor took out the envelope that Wright had given him, pulled out a piece of stationery from it, and began to read it directly.
"Lord Vanessa, when you were expelled from the Holy Capital four years ago, you drew the Knights of the Holy Rose from the Order of the Paladins as a guard, citing the long distance and danger of returning home.
The procedure is legal and the formalities are complete.
If you want to use Resolution 7 to recruit them, you must first release the mission and return the Knights of the Holy Rose to the Order.
Otherwise, the Knights of the Holy Rose in the mission will not be recruited. ”
"Tsk!"
Vanessa looked at the letter in Taylor's hand, her silver teeth clenched.
After weighing it up, Vanessa beckoned to Helen, "Helen, I am now relieved of the mission of the Knights of the Holy Rose, and you can return to the Order." ”
"But Princess, our mission documents have been lost......"
"It's okay! We've got you covered. ”
Taylor pulled out another piece of paper from the envelope, and Vanessa and Helen had to sign it in front of everyone.
After Taylor put the paperwork away, Vanessa took Helen's hand: "Let's go, I have prepared a ...... for you to eat."
"Wait a minute! Urgent military order! ”
"What?"
Taylor ignored the angry Vanessa and beckoned behind him. The herald of the Holy New Army immediately walked out with a large poster and began to sing aloud.
"By order of His Highness St. Wright, the temporary agent of the Holy Order, the Holy Capital has been put into a state of emergency combat readiness since the date of the Communiqué.
In the name of the Order and the Holy See, this agent will form the Holy New Army and take over the defense and security of the Holy Capital.
Due to the urgency of the situation, St. Taylor, commander-in-chief of the Holy New Army, has the right of compulsory conscription!
Recruited paladins must serve at least one full week in the Holy Forces before they are allowed to apply for a referral order.
This resolution is based on a state of emergency combat readiness and has the highest priority! ”
"Wait!"
Vanessa was unconvinced: "Our Resolution 7 is also the highest priority!" ”
Taylor smiled and took the letter and began to read it again.
"Yes! But there is one point, this emergency military order was issued seven days ago. You have invoked Resolution VII, but your application is now.
Therefore, after the Knights of the Holy Rose return to the Order, they must first carry out the emergency military order before executing your application.
As a result, they have been forcibly incorporated into the Holy Forces nouveau.
Because the Holy Forces New are part of the Holy See and the Holy Order, and are not covered by Resolution VII, you have no right to employ members of our Holy Forces nouvelles.
So, these members of the Knights of the Holy Rose, you have to come with me! ”
Vanessa rushed forward in three or two steps and grabbed the letter in Taylor's hand. Taylor didn't hide or defend himself, and let the other party take it.
As a result, Vanessa took it in her hand and looked at it, Taylor had just finished reading the last paragraph, and there was only a small line at the end.
[Look at the back]
There is also a small arrow.
Vanessa looked at it in turn, and there was a large line written on the back of the letter.
[What do you see?] 】
"Damn!"
Vanessa tore the letter in her hand and shredded it, and then saw Taylor slowly pull out a new piece of letter from the envelope.
"It's useless for you to be angry! Now in the Holy Capital, my rules are rules!
As the Acting President of the Temple, you are fully permitted to initiate a request for resolution. But this process has been going down for almost a week.
Although the Knights of the Holy Rose were created by you, the members of the Knights of the Holy Rose swore allegiance to the Goddess of Light, and they were the first to join the Order of the Holy Knights!
Clever in front of me?
Do you think that because I don't like to go through the process, I won't care about these details?
I'll tell you, it's because I'm too familiar with the process that I don't want to go through it!
Please distinguish cause and effect, thank you. ”
After reading it, Taylor also handed over the letter very thoughtfully and asked with a grin.
"Do you want to tear it?"
"Don't think you've won! My members are of the same mind as me! You can't stop it! ”
Taylor sneered, pulled out another piece of paper from the envelope, and deliberately began to read it at the top of his throat.
"Lord Vanessa! In fact, it is also a good thing to let the girls go with us!
The reputation of the Temple Council is so stinky, I'm sure there won't be a single shop in the entire Saints willing to serve you!
Have you made them come running around day and night to find them a good place to live?
Say that if you prepare something to eat, it won't just be bread and water!
Let them follow you, will you be hungry for nine meals in three days, and sleep in the stables at night?
The hard work of the girls of the Holy New Army specially prepared a luxurious meal and concierge-level accommodation for them!
There is also a private pool and a luxurious bathhouse! As well as countless store vouchers and VIP cards!
Four years of suffering will be rewarded today!
Valiant Holy Roses! This way, please!
This is a military order! You can't say no. ”
