Tyrant Code

Chapter 174

The pope's move to assemble mercenaries could not have been hidden from many ministers in the king's secret party.

But that's just the original, on the premise that the Pope didn't activate the power of the Holy See—he used the church's eyes and ears to send out information, and quickly transferred a large amount of property in the Pope's treasury. The Pope has many priceless treasures in his hands. There is no place to spend money, and to prevent outsiders from coveting, so it has not been revealed to others.But this pope changed his previous miser's character, and started to burn money wantonly with a big wave of his hand. People were shocked by the wealth accumulated by the Holy See over the years - it is said that some mercenaries have already knelt towards the east Next, treat the Pope as a second-born parent.

In an industry like mercenaries, those who are more life-threatening will not open for a year, and will survive for a year after opening.However, as long as they complete the single task of the pope, they will have no worries in this life.

And the pope's task is also very simple.His target was not the royal capital, but Soledu, the former site of the Holy See. It was originally a vast basin with the most prosperous and advanced belief culture in the Western Continent. More than 100 years ago, the Emperor of Glory broke through the Holy See, and forced them to relocate and bring them under the supervision of the Celanka royal family—even though so many years have passed, the Holy See still has imprints in Sole apart from the ruins, and Sole Lai is still a holy place in the hearts of many believers.

The purpose of the Pope is to recapture Soleil.

For the Holy See, the golden age of being worshiped by all nations more than 100 years ago is gone forever.At that time, although the Holy See was rich, apart from ambition and authority, the Holy See did exist as a beacon of faith.But the current Vatican not only lost its majesty, but also there were not so many brilliant magicians, wise men, and philosophers in the Vatican anymore.Today's smart people are basically concentrated in the temple.Under the leadership of the Pope, the Holy See has been arguing with the royal family. It was originally for the independence of the Holy See and the revival of faith. In the end, everyone got deeper and deeper, and the path became more and more crooked.

The royal family is not a good thing, is it the Holy See?

The mercenaries know this well.They believe in religion, but they don't have any special respect for the legendary holy land of Sole, not to mention that it is the Pope himself who made this list-and no matter what the mercenaries have realized in advance what is called magical reality, this is also a big problem for the Pope himself. A very bold choice.A choice bold enough to go down in history.

So the Holy See is finally going to break up with the Celanca Empire?

The news spread rapidly throughout the surrounding countries.Of course, this does not rule out the possibility that the Pope did it on purpose. In short, everyone is now looking forward to a good show—they have been waiting for this day since the king of the Celanca Empire ascended the throne.The royal family that allowed the Holy See to intervene in state affairs is bound to be backlashed by the Holy See.Even though the king can stand on his own now and starts to suppress the Holy See, but in the past ten years, he has grown the appetite of the Pope.

If there is turmoil in Seranka due to this conflict, or even a split - other countries are also happy to see it.

"Why is he so courageous!" In the chamber, the king was banging on the table and losing his temper, with ink bottles and yellowed paper flying around, "Didn't he think about the consequences of doing this!"

Seeing the king blushing with anger and his neck thick, the ministers watched their noses, noses, noses, and hearts, but they didn't dare to speak.

The pope openly challenged the king, claiming that there was something wrong with the cause of Bishop Aldrich Finn's death, and that there must be a black magician lurking in the Moran family.The pope believed that the king's partiality and partiality had affected the justice of the Holy See, so he demanded that the Holy See be moved back to Soleil.If the king disagreed, the pope would have hired soldiers to shoot Soleil for him.

The king was very angry and wanted to condemn the Pope, and even wanted to convict the Pope of treason—but then he suddenly discovered that the Holy See was originally an organization that did not belong to any country.It was forcibly tied to the ship Selanka.Now that it wants to become independent, there will only be more countries that support the Pope, not less.

"..." The king was silent for a moment, then raised his head, the gloom in his eyes was clearly visible, "Is Casar still the original one?"

"Yes." The minister beside the king wiped his sweat and replied tremblingly, "His Excellency Casar Moran still insists that he absolutely did not use any dark means to murder Bishop Finn. Bishop Finn died of The hands of the rebels, this is an unfortunate accident. As for the black wizard - that is a false accusation. Anyway, the body is on the side of His Excellency the Pope. They can say whatever they want, but the Moran Legion will never admit it in vain their allegations."

The king's face was darkened.

"...Forgive me, Your Majesty." A certain minister boldly said, "Giving Suo Lei to the Holy See is actually not a big deal. That piece of land was originally the land that the Emperor of Glory obtained from the Holy See." The ones that were snatched from the other side are now in their respective positions—to take a step back, the pope is far away from the capital, which means he is far away from the politics of the capital, which is beneficial to the safety of you and the royal family, but not harmful..."

"Go ahead and fart." Duke De Monte mocked, "The Pope's purpose has been written on his face. His first step is to be independent, the second step is to reach cooperation with other countries and recruit troops, and the third step is to cooperate with other countries." Others united to annex Celanca and settle the enmity over the years."

"Don't be so irritable, Demont." The king calmed down, and he waved his hand weakly, "Your views are too radical. In fact, what this minister said is not unreasonable."

"Isn't it enough to just repel them? Kill their minions, scare their courage, and teach them what to think and what not to think. Then the Holy See still belongs to the back garden of our Celanka Empire." Duke De Monte said with no expression on his face.

The king couldn't bear it anymore: "If possible, we should try our best to avoid conflicts with the Holy See—don't you know how many of our citizens are devout Catholics?"

"I think the citizens are most concerned about how to live their own lives." Duke Demont showed a mocking smile, "It's like the great turmoil more than ten years ago-the chaos of succession to the throne was strangled to death." After being in the royal capital, don’t the lords and common people across the country still live without any changes?... It cannot be said that there are no changes. After all, the obligatory taxes they have to pay to the Holy See have increased a lot.”

The king's veins twitched: "Are you questioning me, Demont?"

"Of course I don't dare to question you." Duke Demont bowed, but the perfunctory expression on his face could no longer be concealed, "After all, you are a wise monarch who cannot be faulted in terms of wisdom or character. How dare I question you?" ?”

De Monte said so, but the big words "I'm just so ignorant of good and bad" were written in his eyes.

king:"……"

It has been a long, long time since he had the experience of choking with Demont. The king was stunned for a moment, and soon thought of the reason.

—Demonte really still cares about his desire to betroth Celia to Gordo, right?

This time the king really miscalculated.After the news of the blind date between Gordo and Helia was released, Demont's reaction was not as extreme as imagined, and he treated Gordo as usual, except when facing the king, he was picky.

The king was also very depressed.Co-authored by Goldo Moran and the Duke of Demont, these two people are really close friends with each other, and their love is stronger than gold. His Majesty the King tried to use his beautiful and wealthy niece to pry the corner of the two people, but the purpose failed. Not to mention that he was ashamed of himself, he also heard the shocking news that his niece had already made a private appointment with a poor boy for life.

That's what his niece said when she got engaged to that boy in private, and there was nothing taboo about saying that she "both parents died"—it was true that the child's parents died, but his uncle was still alive and breathing!How can you be so hasty!

Thinking of this, the king had another headache.

But at this moment, he had to slow down and explain Helia's matter to Duke Demont in a gentle voice.

"I don't care much about the marriage of the Grand Duchess." Duke De Monte said, "I just think you should find a way to destroy the Holy See."

"...This is too risky, De Monte." The king still insisted on taking a step back, "I understand your feelings. But we can find a way to deal with the Pope, but the Holy See still needs to exist."

After hearing this sentence, Duke De Monte finally showed no more aggressiveness, smiled coldly, and then stopped participating in the discussion.

"But do you really plan to give Suo Lei as a gift?" An elderly minister sighed deeply, "This is the land left to us by our great ancestors."

If the Emperor of Radiance knew that his descendants would not even be able to keep such a small piece of land, he would definitely crawl out of the coffin.

And indeed it is.

Since the dinner that day, Gordon and Atricia had had a quarrel, but their cold war did not last for a few days, and before Atricia calmed down, he was beaten down by a headache first.

Waves of headaches and dizziness made Atricia sweat, and she couldn't even work or teach normally.After hearing about it, Gordo rushed over to take care of him, but it was a pity that he used healing magic one after another, but it didn't help Attricia's condition.Seeing Gordo jumping anxiously, Atricia also calmed down.The main reason is that there are bigger troubles waiting for him now.

"That guy Claudius is completely crazy." Atrium lay on the sofa and said weakly, "He heard that the king wanted to let Solei out, so he lost his temper inexplicably. I can understand his Angry... This guy has a grudge against the Holy See. The Battle of Solai was his revenge. That's why he minds so much... Absolutely."

"He wouldn't pick you up for fusion if he didn't have hatred." Gordon sighed, "But what made him react so strongly is still related to Julian."

Yatricia: "...Have you asked?"

Goldo: "I asked, and it is indeed related. Julian was also a nobleman with a head and face, but he was ruined because of the Holy See. I can't dig out more."

Yatricia gritted her teeth: "Okay."

"..." Gordo was silent for a moment, "Is it possible that Claudius can calm down as long as the Pope is deflated?"

"But what can you do? Go alone to resist thousands of troops? Your army can't go anywhere."

"Actually...it's not impossible at all."
