Chapter 117: Uninvited Guest
The two people from the Holy See are both supernatural, the man is more than 1.7 meters tall, wearing the black robe hooded jacket that the Holy See prefers to like, he is in his thirties, his eyes are calm, and he is an experienced master. The woman also wears a black robe and hood, but she has a good figure and wears this kind of dress with charm. The only thing that is strange is that the female anomaly has a veil around her face that only Saudi women can wrap around. In Afghanistan, women are not allowed to show their heads, not only their bodies, but even their faces are surrounded by black gauze until only a pair of eyes remain. The female paranormal was not so excessive, her clothes were covered with a gold-rimmed white cloth, which was pulled up and enclosed the face, nose, and mouth under the eyes.
"My name is Michelle, and this is the goddess Teresa, and we are members of the Cardinal Order of the Holy See. ”
Gamble pointed at Teresa, "Why do you cover your face?"
Teresa bowed her head and replied, "I don't want to delay my business because of my appearance. ”
When everyone heard it, they raised their thumbs in their hearts, this bull boasted a full score. Gamble said, "Please sit down, what is the matter with me?"
Michelle said: "The first thing is that the bishop asked us to apologize to Mr. Fang Shi, and he asked me to convey a sentence, the original text is like this: the actions of the Holy See may not all be right, such as the wanted warrant of Mr. Fang Shi that he agreed to and signed, I do not beg Mr. Fang Shi for forgiveness for my actions, I only hope that Mr. Fang Shi will not be blinded." In addition, the Bishop asked me to convey that he would very much like to have the opportunity to meet with Mr. Fang Shi and give him the opportunity to apologize in person, and he will explain as much as possible why you are wanted. ”
Fang Shi was stunned: "The bishop is too face-saving, I'm just a seaman, right?"
Teresa replied: "The bishop is just facing what he has done wrong, he often says that he is not a god of revelation, that he will make mistakes, and hopes that we can correct him when he makes mistakes, instead of conniving at him." ”
"Wow, this seems to have skyrocketed my favorability toward the Holy See. Fang Shi looked at Zhang Ming.
Michelle said: "I learned from the bishop of the College of Cardinals that Ms. Anna and Mr. Zhang Ming went to the Donner family, and the bishop respected the choice of both sides. You may be mistaken, the bishop intended to abolish the latent rule that the Holy See and the family of the goddess could not marry ten years ago, but most of the cardinals and senators of the council of various countries objected to the matter, so it has been delayed until now. The bishop was not in good health, and he told me that he would force this canon through before he died, and that he was willing to bear the blame so that the new bishop would not have to face this problem again. ”
The four of them looked at each other, and Fang Shi said: "Don't blame me for being suspicious, you have traveled thousands of miles to the Phi Phi Islands just to relieve the hostile emotions of the Holy See in the hearts of our Poseidon." I can't understand it. ”
Michelle replied: "These two things are real, and they are what the bishop told us to convey before we left. We have other purposes for this trip, even if the Poseidon is still hostile to us and unwilling to help us, we cannot change the bishop's words, and we cannot violate the bishop's wishes. ”
The four of them glanced at each other again, and hearing Michelle say this, it was equivalent to indicating that Michelle was probably a Knight of the Apocalypse.
Michelle seemed to hesitate, Teresa nodded encouragingly, and Michelle said: "Don't tell everyone, I'm the Yunxia Knight, and Teresa is the Wandering Firefly Knight." ”
"Oh?" No wonder you don't take off the veil, the Flying Knights are very beautiful, and it is rumored that they can be demagogic by relying on their faces, and the Flying Knights are under the command of the Rose Knights. The Knight of the Clouds is under the command of the Rainbow Knight.
Teresa knew what everyone was thinking, and replied, "The Firefly Knight is actually a doctor, but because of the beauty of the Firefly Knight, there has always been a misunderstanding. At least now the misunderstanding has gone away. Teresa removed the mask, revealing an ugly scar on the left side of her face, like the back of a toad. The right side is like a burned skin, red and unhealed.
Everyone was taken aback, and Fang Shi looked at Gamble worriedly, what is this trying to do? The more the other party says, the more he wants the Poseidon to help.
Teresa knew that her face was horrible now, so she put back her veil and said, "It wasn't my intention, I was born very beautiful, but when I was five years old, I had a fire and the left side of my face was exposed to chemicals, so it caused ...... Sorry to scare everyone. ”
Anna's compassion appeared, and she said, "Now the plastic surgery technology is very developed......
Teresa said: "I just want to prove that the Flying Firefly Knight is not what everyone thinks, I don't care about my appearance, thank you for your concern." ”
Gamble said: "I heard you say so much, and suddenly I felt a little scared. ”
"The bishop says he knows you," Michelle said. ”
Gamble nodded: "I've seen it a few times, but it's not familiar." ”
"It's okay, we're not here to ask for help, and even if we don't help, we'll explain it," Michelle said. Because this matter is getting more and more serious now, sooner or later it will be impossible to hide it. ”
What else can the "......" do, listen.
Of the three major knights of the Apocalypse Knights, only the Holy Sword Knight is currently in the world, and the other Apocalypse Knights who do not have a Knight Chief are divided into two factions, one is to follow the Holy Sword Knight before their boss does not appear according to the rules. One faction listens only to the bishop. Fortunately, there is no conflict of interest between the two factions.
Because the bishop may retire or die in the near future due to health reasons, the cardinal has already begun to draw up a bishop. Michelle unexpectedly learns that the Knight of the Apocalypse is involved in the selection of bishop candidates. So the bishop summoned all the knights of the apocalypse, but unexpectedly, the knights of the holy sword responded to the bishop's inquiries with silence.
Cardinal Alexander is the most popular among the cardinals, Alexander is a hawk, he has made more fierce remarks in the cardinals, and is very worried about the neutral faction holding the real power of the human alliance, he believes that for thousands of years, there has been no attack on the demon land, and the biggest culprit to eliminate the hidden dangers of mankind is the neutral faction, he advocates that the Holy See control the human alliance, or break away from the human alliance.
The Bishop was very concerned about this, and had several conversations with Alexander, but Alexander was stubborn, and the cardinals, which included all the Papal Powers, praised Alexander's opinion. Before leaving, Angela sensed the will of the Apocalypse God and said that the Apocalypse God wanted the Holy See to take up the task of fighting against the Demon Lands, which seemed to imply that the Holy See should no longer be governed by the Human Alliance. The bishop believes that the Apocalypse did not say that the Holy See should take on the responsibility alone. The human alliance should not be abandoned.
Michelle said, "The Donnells sent someone to the Phi Phi Islands, right?"
Gamble said, "Yes or no. "No matter how sincere you are, the Poseidon will not break its word.
Michelle said: "The four great families are now trying their best to find miracles under the sea, and the goddess's original homeland was the southern hemisphere, but because of the collapse of the land, she turned to the northern hemisphere to preach and absorb believers. The miracle under the sea is like the holy emblem of the Knight of the Apocalypse, and once the guardian knight of the four guardian families wears the miracle, it will be like the Knight of the Apocalypse, and he will gain great power. "Earn power by being canonized as a Guardian Knight.
"I don't understand anymore. "Gamble retreats as advances.
Michelle said: "Some people speculate that the goddess's original homeland is the southern hemisphere, but only the Knight of the Apocalypse knows that the miracle of the goddess is near the Phi Phi Islands. This information is not clear even to the bishop. Tang San and Tang Er were not the first batch of people sent by the four major families to find miracles, two years earlier, at least seven groups of guardian family members had gone to the Phi Phi Islands. ”
"What does this mean?" Fang Shi vaguely guessed the cause and effect, but he didn't say it. At the same time, there is some suspicion in his heart about Michelle and Teresa, who, unlike Gamble, chats with the locals every time he is stationed in the Phi Phi Islands, but has never heard of anyone sent by the goddess to the Phi Phi Islands. Perhaps, of course, they are hiding their identities.
Michelle replied, "We are very concerned that the Knights of the Apocalypse and the Guardian Family have joined forces, which is contrary to the doctrine of the Apocalypse. ”
Fang Shi said: "If it violates the doctrine of the Apocalypse, the Knight of the Apocalypse will not do this. ”
Michelle smiled bitterly: "Because in ancient teachings, the Apocalypse and the Goddess are equally noble gods, and in the ancient teachings, the Knights of the Apocalypse and the guardian family are brothers. ”
"There were disagreements and conflicts in ancient doctrines and doctrines that created this situation. We are convinced that the Knights of the Apocalypse are directly or indirectly connected to the Guardian Family, and then to the Cardinals, the election of bishops, etc. We think there may be a conspiracy involved. So the purpose of our trip is to obtain the miracle of the goddess first, seal it, and then understand the whole situation before making plans. We can't let things get out of hand. ”
Fang Shi understood that the Knight of the Apocalypse was fighting among themselves, and the reason was that they supported the ancient doctrine on the one hand, and the new doctrine on the other. It's just infighting, everyone sits down, and it's okay to talk about it. But Michelle's side believes that there is a conspiracy involved.
Gamble said: "As far as I know, the Holy See family is fighting against the Demon Land alone, and it is really a bit too much to overestimate themselves. ”
Michelle nodded: "Yes, even if all the twelve Apocalypse Knights are assembled, at most they will lose both." Besides, Teresa's chief knight and I never showed up. ”
Gamble said, "You mean, you want us to help you seal the miracle? I'm afraid it's unlikely, because we promised the Donnell family first." ”
Michelle said: "That's what we meant, but we've also considered the Poseidon's position. So our request is that we hope that the Poseidon will not get involved in our affairs with the Donnells. ”
The Phi Phi Islands are currently the most powerful is the Poseidon, and the Donnell family needs the Poseidon to transport miracles, and Michelle finds the Poseidon first, even if the Poseidon does not help him, he hopes that the Poseidon will be neutral.
Gamble immediately felt uncomfortable, it was too difficult. Logically speaking, it should stand on Michelle's side, but morally speaking, it should stand on the side of the Donnells. However, the truth is the words of the Michelle family, and Gamble said: "I'm sorry two, we have promised the Donnell family, if the people of the Donnell family are attacked and ask for help, or ask us for help, we can't refuse." It's a promise. ”
Michelle glanced at Teresa in disappointment, Teresa stood up and said, "We also considered this possibility, and the bishop explained that if the Poseidon does not agree, let us return immediately, so as not to exacerbate the conflict." ”
Gamble was a little reluctant and stood up: "You said so much, but I can't help, I'm sorry." ”
Teresa shook her head: "No, it is also our job to convey the bishop's words to the Poseidon, although I personally do not think this work is important, but the bishop's request will be completed as much as possible." In that case, let's take our leave. ”
Gamble said: "Zhang Ming, you accompany them to the dock to find a boat." This means that you have to spend a lot of money to get a boat to send them away. Zhang Ming was sent because Zhang Ming was a former member of the Holy See, and it was up to him to see if the two were consistent in their words and deeds.
