scepter

While walking and wandering, when the person in front suddenly stopped, Yannick almost hit Feizel's back. Fortunately, Beck next to him pulled him in time-this situation is inevitable in the eyes of passers-by. He would feel that this priest who came from a small place was too reckless, and he couldn't get on the stage.

"May I ask who is Priest Hill?"

Among them, Yanick was the only one wearing a priest's robe, and the answer was of course self-evident. The visitor obviously knew that his question was a bit unnecessary, and his eyes were already on Yannik.

The other party was wearing a mid-level priest's robe, polite and detached, and looked like a "qualified and typical" priest.

"That's me, what's the matter?"

"Hello, Your Excellency Fansherich asked me to invite you to attend the temporary meeting." The mid-level priest raised his chin slightly.

Perhaps because he was sent by the archbishop in red, he had to lower his stance. Even so, the inconsistent title also faintly exposed the other party's thoughts.

"Temporary meeting? Me?" Yannick repeated for confirmation.

"Yes," the other party was a little impatient, his rank was higher than Yannick's, and there was really no need to respect Yannick. "I heard that you performed well in La Serena and made a lot of efforts to restore the reputation of the Holy See, so Your Excellency Vatican decided to make an exception and grant you the qualification to attend the temporary meeting."

"What is the content of the temporary meeting?"

"Discuss the countermeasures to defeat the undead." The middle-level priest said, "I just let you attend."

The implication is that His Excellency Fansherich sent someone to let him go, not to express his opinions, and he didn't need to ask so many questions, he just needed to sit in on it. For me, this is already a great honor—at least the messenger in front of me thinks so.

"Okay, please wait a moment." Yannick didn't seem to notice the subtle attitude of the other party. He greeted Aphra and the others and asked them to go shopping first.

"Wait." Sophia said to the priest, "I'll go with him!"

Before the other party objected, she added: "I am the only daughter of the Earl Marin of the Empire, and I am also a third-class baron. As a nobleman, I should also be eligible to attend the meeting."

The mid-level priest sized up the girl in the swordsman's cavalry and nodded: "Yes."

Only then did Aphra and the others realize that Sophia also had a title on her body.

"I'll go too, please let me follow, Your Excellency Hill!" Beck also said.

"You go shopping with Feizel and the others, I won't be in danger." Yannick smiled.

"No, Your Excellency, since I am your personal bodyguard, my duty is to protect you!" Baker insisted.

"You can't..." Yannick was about to persuade him, but was interrupted by the middle-level priest.

"No, he can." The mid-level priest said, "Since he is your bodyguard, it doesn't matter."

Yannick also wondered why the other party suddenly became reasonable, and after meeting his gaze, he immediately understood.

Baker's shabby clothes, his demeanor from a small place, all made the mid-level priest think he was watching a joke. Of course, he was happy to see the two of them make a fool of themselves in the temporary meeting.

Knowing this, Yannick didn't insist on letting Beck go back. He smiled: "Since you are so reasonable, then Beck, you can go with us."

The three of them followed the mid-level priests to the political hall of the city hall. The costumes of the priests coming out of the Holy See are slightly different from those of the local priests. Like the priest in front of them, the sleeves of the robes and sleeves will be inlaid with exquisite gold and silver threads. Texture, highlighting the unique status.

It's no wonder that people feel good about themselves. People who grew up in the imperial capital often look down on those from the countryside. Most people have this mentality. Obviously, in the eyes of this middle-level priest, Yannick is such a "country-born" , but it was because of good luck that he met La Serena's scene and bought people's hearts.

Before entering the gate, they were stopped by soldiers guarding the gate.

The mid-level priest said: "In order to ensure the safety and smooth progress of the meeting, the magic staff of the mage and the priest need to be kept by a special person before entering, and the swordsmen are also not allowed to bring weapons in."

Is this to prevent gang fights if everyone disagrees?Yannick thought it was a little funny. He watched Sophia take off the sword and hand it to the soldier for safekeeping, saying, "I don't have a staff."

The mid-level priest's eyes flashed, and then there was a hint of understanding and sneer.

The staff is the second life of priests and mages, a priest who doesn't even have a staff, can you expect him not to be weak when he sees such a big scene later?

The presiding officer of the meeting was Loputo, the first-class viscount Loputo, the governor of the city of San Mar. As a representative of the nobles, he felt a lot of pressure in the face of representatives from both sides with strong backgrounds.

Although due to the situation and the mediation of the emperor, the priest and the mage temporarily put on a cooperative posture to show their generosity, and the two sides did not wave their staffs to fight each other at the meeting, but this does not mean that the meeting It's smooth sailing, you can't fight with martial arts, you can fight with words!

All kinds of verbal hints and traps emerge in endlessly. Whenever the noble side proposes a plan, the two sides have to argue for a long time, and no one is willing to give in half a step first. Progress has been very slow and there is a strong tendency to continue.

Of course, as representatives of both parties, in the identities of Arthur Vaserich and Mudd Fan, they would not do such things as roll up their sleeves and fight in person, but this does not prevent them from instructing their priests and The mage confronted each other.

On one side is the proud student of the Saint of Law, and on the other is the Pope's confidant. Loputo can't offend either, but the nobles can't be reduced to a mage or a vassal of the Holy See because of this. He looked at La Serena who was sitting beside him as if nothing had happened. The castellan glanced, oh, it's the former castellan.

He absolutely didn't want to end up like this guy—because he lost La Serena and was worried about being held accountable, Tines didn't dare to go back to the imperial capital and stayed here, probably with the idea of ​​committing a crime.

When Loputo started to speak, Yannick and the others were coming in through the back door, without attracting the attention of most people. As Yannick's low-level priest, he could only sit in the last inconspicuous position, and Sophia was of course accompanying him , and Baker can only stand by.

"First of all, on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor, I would like to thank all the priests and mages for being able to sit here and participate in the protection of Saint-Mar City! Even though we may have had some unpleasantness with each other, but now, when we face a common enemy, all The grievances and grievances should be put aside first, and fight to defend the living space of human beings!"

The city lord of Saint-Mar City is obviously good at eloquence. He described the contradiction between the mage and the priest as a contradiction among the people, and let everyone draw their attention first.

"As we all know, the undead army that raided La Serena this time has a very close relationship with the Black Death, and so far we have not been able to determine whether the undead are related to monsters. You must know that Olin has not seen any monsters for nearly 1000 years. There have been high-level monsters, if there is another gap between the monster plane and the mainland plane, it will be an extremely serious accident, and it may even bring great disaster to Olin Continent!"

"Now, within the territory of the Garter Empire, La Serena, one of our most important border cities, has fallen, and it has completely turned into a city of the dead, so we urgently need to come up with countermeasures to protect the city of Santa Mar!"

"Baron Ryan," Loputo looked at the people next to him, "Please tell us about the current situation of the countries on the mainland."

"Yes, Lord Loputo." Baron Ryan, who had been molested by Priest Yannick, stood up, holding a roll of parchment in his hand.

Since he was quite capable, he did not back down when guarding La Serena, so he did not suffer the fate of being dismissed like Tines, but continued to stay in Santa Mar as the deputy of the city-state governor.

"Gentlemen, what I need to say is that the current situation is not optimistic. If we are caught or bitten by the undead, each of us may become the next undead, standing on the opposite side of humans."

Ryan said, "According to the latest statistics, all countries on the mainland, except the Pope and the Charlemagne Empire, have basically been invaded by the undead to varying degrees. Our country has fallen into a city, La Serena, the Duchy of Mecklen The Principality of Cornwall and the Principality of Cornwall lost two cities, the Empire of Santos and the Empire of Salat lost one, and the Principality of Ceylon has the most serious situation, with three cities already falling. Because the Charlemagne Empire is located in the center of the mainland and surrounded by other countries, so for now Still safe."

"If this trend continues, as long as we don't stop it, or adopt a laissez-faire attitude, within two or three months at most, the undead army can capture a principality."

"Because the countries on the continent are connected, this situation is not only related to the fate of a country. The fall of a city means that the human territory will lose another part. In the end, maybe the entire continent will be occupied by the undead, and the human It will also lead to the abyss of extinction! Judging from the data I just reported, I am definitely not exaggerating the facts, please believe this!"

"Here, the empire hopes that this situation can attract everyone's attention, temporarily put aside the hatred, and jointly deal with the undead and the main messenger behind them!"

After Ryan finished speaking, he bowed slightly to the city-state chief of St. Mar and sat down.

Loputo said: "I believe that you have a general understanding of the situation introduced by Ryan. Next, what we need to determine is how to prevent the invasion of the undead in the city of Saint-Mar, and even how to deal with the people behind the undead. Monsters, drive them away or destroy them, and take back the city that belongs to humans!"

After Ryan finished speaking, there was silence in the hall, and then there was a buzzing and low-pitched discussion.

Most of the people who spoke were mages and nobles. I don’t know if it was because there was a red-clothed archbishop present, but the priests tried their best to maintain a noble and reserved demeanor, with a look on their faces, "We have already understood what you are talking about. There is nothing to be afraid of if we are here." " calm expression.

"Knock knock!"

The representative of the mage side, Mu De Fan tapped the long table with his fingers, indicating that he had something to say, the scene gradually quieted down, and the eyes of hundreds of people immediately fell on him.

Master Fan smiled slightly: "I have a proposal. A priest who just entered the field, he personally experienced the war in La Serena, and with his own power, saved the lives of most of the soldiers in La Serena. Even mages have received his favor, and he has gone deep into the lair of monsters and confronted monsters head-on. So I think he is more qualified to speak than us."

If the object of his praise now is a mage, the priests will definitely dismiss it, but as a representative of the mage camp, the proud student of the mage, a young magic genius, actually publicly praised a priest, which can not but surprise everyone. Even the archbishop in red had a slightly surprised look on his face.

"I don't know who you are talking about?" City Lord Loputo asked equally curiously.

The author has something to say:

1. The priest is going to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger again...

2. Attack 1 is not the cardinal, his identity is noble + mage, there will be no more complicated things.

3. The cardinal is also a very important role, and the name can give a general impression.

4. Gong 1 is an academic madman. He is serious about priests. You can see that he is so serious about H! 【Dense Fog...
