Devil Class Cannon Fodder

The Temple of Light is a religious organization, which can actually be compared to a kingdom. The political mediation in it is no less than that of the Kingdom of Rand.

In this case, the pope is a king, and Gu Qing wants to become the pope now, which is actually similar to the prince's desire to ascend the throne.From the very beginning, Gu Qing planned to replace the current Pope Augustine one day. Now that he himself is about to break through the legendary realm, it is time to make the final move.

This "usurpation" battle involved a lot, and the fuse was a scandal that occurred in the diocese under its jurisdiction:

One of the supreme canons of the Temple of Light, all people will dedicate their lives to the Temple. Whether it is the Pope or the bishop of a church, they are not allowed to marry and have children.Of course, sexual relations with other people are also not allowed.It's just that no one is a saint, and the seven emotions and six desires can't be cut off just by cutting them off, so it's not uncommon for clergymen to violate this canon in private.

But the fire can't be wrapped in paper, let alone this time it went too far.

The incident involved nobles, human lives, and a cardinal whose power is second only to the archbishop.Originally, according to the usual practice of the Temple of Light, this kind of accident must be reduced to a minor one. However, this time before the Holy Church made a decision, there was a riot of believers in the local parish.

Adding fuel to the fire, the Dark Temple also came to add fuel.

Next, Cardinal Alvin, who is at the forefront, can be said to have been single-handedly promoted by the Pope.Alvin is capable, but in the Temple of Light, there are many people who are as powerful as him, and there are many people who are higher than him, but no one else can become the archbishop of a diocese, and become the red-clothed bishop whose power is second only to the four major bishops. bishop.What's more, Alvin is extravagant. The diocese he governs actually has the most friction. It is not that no one has impeached him before, but every time Augustine, as Pope, has chosen to take sides.

This time Alvin made such a big commotion, and the interior of the Temple of Light was full of complaints. Pope Augustine had to go to the parish in person.

As the pope, Augustine is a strong man in the legendary realm. Although he hasn't made a move for a long time, no one dares to underestimate him.What's more, with a wave of his arm, the Paladins let him order.

Even if Pope Isidore of the Dark Temple came in person, he would have to think twice before confronting Augustine.So this time, they didn't pay attention to the Dark Temple and the Light Temple team led by Augustine, and they only wanted to show the Dark Temple team a good look.

The two parties finally met on the narrow road in Sherman Hills, where the Sherman tragedy was created.Hoffman, one of the deputy head of the Holy Knights, died, Bazel, one of the four great bishops, was deeply cursed and unconscious, and Pope Augustine was also injured. Although it was not serious, it was enough to shake the Temple of Light Up and down, the fear and hatred towards the Dark Temple reached its peak for a while.

The much-maligned Cardinal Alvin later committed suicide and apologized.The believers in his diocese also turned their attention to the Dark Temple, which had a wave of hatred. Coupled with the presence of Pope Augustine, the diocese returned to its former calm, and the riots seemed to have never happened.

Not to mention the interior of the Temple of Light, after all, the foreign enemy of the Temple of Darkness is currently present.

However, things are not so simple. How can the Dark Temple have such a great ability to seriously injure the Light Temple team headed by the Pope in one fell swoop?What happened on Sherman Hills is worth investigating, if only to understand the strength of the Black Temple.However, Pope Augustine was quite secretive about this. He was still busy promoting the horror and hatefulness of the Temple of Darkness, and that the Temple of Light must not let the Temple of Darkness continue to grow.

Gu Qing watched Augustine quietly, and then dug the hole deeper.

The reason why Alvin has been favored by the Pope repeatedly is because Alvin has a big or small handle on Pope Augustine—before Augustine became Pope, he had brought people to Purify a village infested with demonic energy.Originally, this was a very common task, but the Pope made a wrong judgment during the period, resulting in the tragic death of innocent civilians.In order to cover up this matter, Hoffman, who was only a paladin at the time, chose to slaughter the village in order to prevent Augustine, the most powerful candidate for the pope, from being stained, and then completely covered up the matter.

Hoffman's handling of this accident was so stupid that it made people suspect that he was actually sent by the Dark Temple.Only considering that in the original plot, when Raymond returned to the Rand Kingdom, he used this incident to dampen the prestige of the Temple of Light, forcing the Temple of Light to make a compromise.And why Raymond knew such a confidential matter was another coincidence.

Having said that, Gu Qing is now taking advantage of this incident, cooperating with Sion, who is the high priest of the Dark Temple, pretending to be lost in the Sherman Hills, provoking Augustine's sensitive nerves, and then by teaching The hands of His Majesty Zong killed Hoffman, who was directly related to the incident that year, and Alvin, who benefited indirectly.Bazel, one of the four great bishops, was an insider. He was originally a direct descendant of Augustine, and at the same time, he chose to remain silent in order to protect the honor of the Temple of Light. However, just in case, Augustine, Or did something to him.

His Majesty Augustine's injury was not self-directed and acted by him, but was injured by Isidor when he fought against Pope Isidor of the Dark Temple.It's just that Isidor couldn't take advantage of it, and he didn't get out so well.

Given that Isidor is the Pope of the Dark Temple, what happens next to him is out of the control of Gu Qing in Glory City, that is Sion's business.

But thinking about it, the day when Sion became a veritable teller of the Dark Temple is not too far away.

This Gu Qing in Glory City, what he has to do is to make His Majesty the Pope face up to his mistakes and add to his mistakes, and let the Temple of Light come to urge His Majesty not to make mistakes to the end.

This process was also full of drama. Bazel miraculously recovered his sobriety. When Augustine was planning how to deal with the Dark Temple, he broke into the meeting hall and exposed Augustine's self-directed and self-acted performance in public.At that time, in the meeting hall, not only the other three archbishops were present, but also the cardinals from other dioceses, as well as the head and deputy head of the Holy Knight Order, and several chief referees.

And Gu Qing, one of the pope's backup, also made an exception to participate in this council, and his position on the council table is still above the archbishop, and it can be said that he is second only to Pope Augustine.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Archbishop Bazel broke in.

The paladins waiting outside, also because of the status of Archbishop Bazel, did not stop him when he pushed the door to come in, but when they heard Archbishop Bazel's hoarse accusation, they couldn't help but looked at each other in amazement.

The people in the chamber behaved differently.Some were genuinely surprised, some had learned about it before, and some pretended to be astonished.However, they quickly reached a consensus that there was going to be a big movement in the Temple of Light.

There is also the fig leaf of the Temple of Light, which must be clearly drawn.After all, Alvin's scandal just broke out. If the believers are to know the crimes committed by the Pope, then wait for the reputation of the Temple of Light to plummet.Originally, the Dark Temple was menacing, and their Light Temple could no longer give them an opportunity.

However, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. Not to mention that Alvin has left behind, the Dark Temple also knows how to strike while the iron is hot, and Gu Qing is still thinking about dismantling this untimely bomb, and then see if Raymond will still be there. What kind of "coincidence" is triggered, so as to further judge what the will of the world is like.So during the public relations crisis in the Temple of Light, Gu Qing proposed to cover up the real cause of death of Hoffman and Alvin, but Pope Augustine had to be honest about his mistakes and express his remorse to the believers. There are substantive introspection actions, so as to restore the faith of believers and defend the supremacy of the Temple of Light.

Well, these words are colorful, but in essence, Augustine is still abdicating.

Augustine's face was indescribably ugly, he looked at Gu Qing very hard.

Gu Qing looked calm.

Now that things are up to now, it doesn't make much sense to be hypocritical, so after Gu Qing made a suggestion, other people followed up and made the point a little more explicit.It is said that if His Majesty Augustine abdicates under such a sinful edict, he will also save the hearts of believers and prevent himself from being the target of public criticism and becoming a sinner in the Temple of Light.

The implication was that if Augustine didn't appreciate it, he didn't know a good heart.

Augustine's face became even uglier.

What made Augustine even more powerless was that there were not many people on his side, let alone half, not even a third.

The tide is gone.

Even if Augustine is the pope, he can't fight against the general trend. In the end, he has to choose to abdicate and let the virtuous give to Elliott. 'Eliott' has a very good reputation in the Kingdom of Rand, especially what he did in the parish near the Emerald Forest before, which won him the hearts of many common believers, not to mention that there is now Augustine for comparison, so The handover of the Pope, such as the Temple of Light, has been unanimously approved by the top and bottom, and many believers choose to ignore Augustine's actions. The prestige of the Temple of Light has not declined, but there has been a small increase.

More and more believers are flocking towards Glory City, hoping to be lucky enough to watch the coronation of the new pope.

On the day of the coronation, the Holy Church was as solemn and solemn as ever.Not only the core priests of the Temple of Light were there, but also the royal family members headed by Alexander II of the Kingdom of Rand, representatives of the Silvermoon Kingdom and the Principality of Bersek who believed in the God of Light, and even the Kingdom of Oran who did not believe in the God of Light. People.There is also the Elf King who lives in the Emerald Forest, who also sent elves to send gifts, as well as dwarves.

This is a rare scene.

The blond-haired and blue-eyed Gu Qing sat at the top. He was wearing a white robe with gold trim. His thick blond hair hung over his shoulders. The sunlight poured down, making his blond hair even more dazzling. Holy Light incarnate.

Archbishop Algier was in charge of crowning him, and the diadem was placed on a tray before the Grand Master of the Order.The crown is solemn and gorgeous, but also carries a sacred meaning.At this moment, everyone held their breath and watched this scene intently.

But at the next moment, a clear male voice came from above the Holy Church: "The Temple of Darkness is here to congratulate the new Pope of the Temple of Light." on the dragon.

"It's Sion from the Black Temple!" Someone shouted.
