Chapter 337 [Shilo's candidate]

At this moment, Pope Heinx was sitting in the prayer room.

The "Pope Prayer Room" is considered to be one of the most mysterious and sacred places in the Temple of Light.

Because this prayer room is a place where popes pray alone, meditate, pray, pray to the goddess to get in touch and listen to the goddess' will.

Entering this prayer room is the privilege of the Pope alone. As the spokesperson of the goddess on earth, the Pope naturally has the only power to listen to the goddess' will. If other people in the church want to know the goddess' will, they can only be conveyed from the Pope.

There is no doubt that this is an unbreakable foundation for maintaining the authority of the Pope.

Although it is embarrassing that even as the "spokes of the goddess on earth", even though the recent generations of popes prayed day and night, they have never received any trace of the goddess' message. Naturally, the so-called goddess's divine will have no way to start.

It has been more than a hundred years!

For more than a hundred years, the most devout believers in the Temple of Light never received the will of the goddess, just as if their gods had completely abandoned these believers of the people on earth.

It is difficult for a god who cannot show miracles to maintain his authority for a long time. The Temple of Light has been repeatedly suppressed and forced over the past hundred years, and gradually weakened, which is related to their inability to obtain the will of the goddess. More and more people no longer believe in the goddess: What else can you believe in a god who cannot see and gives up his people?

In addition, the seventeenth generation of the Glory Natha XVII, who had just abdicated, had three popes who could not get in touch with the goddess during their reign. One of the popes even died in a prayer room. When they died, their eyes were bleeding and their faces were despaired! Of course, this matter was strictly sealed by the top leaders of the church as the top secret of the church. In order to keep the secret, the believers would not lose all their faith, and even the personal servant who served the pope was secretly executed.

Generally speaking, once the Pope enters this prayer room, unless it is of great importance, the general affairs in the church will not be disturbed easily.

But tonight, in the middle of the night, His Majesty Pope Heinx in the prayer room was still alarmed.

Seeing that the person who came in to interrupt his prayer was Tacitus, the head of the Holy Knights in the church, the current Holy Knights. Heinx immediately suppressed his displeasure: he knew his old friend very well. Tacitus was determined and pious. Although he was a little radical in his work, he could at least distinguish between priorities. Since he dared to disturb his prayers, there must be something important to let him come forward.

Sure enough, the news brought by Tacitus moved Heinx after hearing this.

"Darling Chen? Is it really him?"

In the dim prayer room of candlelight, Heinx's face looked gloomy and sunny under the candlelight.

Tacitus's expression was also very serious. He bowed, but his voice was strong and he said in a deep voice: "There was a big deal in the palace today. Someone robbed the prison and fled. This Master Daling Chen, who was recently protested by three major magic organizations in the imperial capital and asked for release, obviously he escaped from the palace by himself. The imperial capital has been martial law, and I don't know where he has the ability to actually come here..."

Heinx shook his head: "The people who can let the three major magic organizations jointly protest and protect them naturally have extraordinary things. I am not surprised that he has the ability to escape from the palace, but... how could he come to us? He is a magician, so it is not safer to go to the Magic Academy? Well, yes, the city defense is blocked, he can't leave the city and cannot go to the Magic Academy, but even if he goes to the Magic Academy or the Magic Union, there is no reason to come to the church."

Speaking of this, Heinx looked up and smiled bitterly: "It seems that this Master Darling Chen came to collect debts. He saved Montoya and Lan Lan's lives at the beginning. Now he is desperate and has no way to come to the church to seek refuge. It's not too strange, but... why did he have such courage? Are you not afraid that we will capture him and give it to Hilo?"

"This is what surprised me." Tacitus's expression became more and more serious. He suddenly knelt on one knee on the ground and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I did not get your permission, so I asked someone to put them in the church and take care of it. This matter is of great importance. I made such a decision without authorization..."

"Get up." Heinx's expression remained unchanged: "I know you, Tacitus. Although you have become more radical in your work, you will not do anything randomly. Since you let them in and come to see me late at night, there must be a special reason."

Tacitus paused his head repeatedly, with a hint of excitement and even anxiety in his expression! Such an expression made Heinx feel tremble!

This old friend of mine devoted his life to the church. He was strong and tough in the Holy Knights. Even if he was a sword, he would not frown, but he showed this anxious and excited look. Then, that Darling Chen must have brought some amazing news!

really……

"That Darling Chen said..." Tacitus's voice trembled:

"He... was the messenger of God, who brought the will of the goddess!"

Teng!! Heinx suddenly stood up!!

...

"Is there any news?"

Shilo slowly put down the quill in his hand. He looked calm. Even when he put down the pen, he had not forgotten to lick the tip of the pen next to the ink bottle and wiped off a drop of thick ink.

I picked up a piece of stuff I just wrote, blew the ink marks in my hand, and then raised my head to look at the person in front of me.

Standing in front of him was a tall middle-aged man with a handsome face and a hint of sharpness between his eyebrows - but he carefully hid this hint of sharpness just right.

"General Garonin." Shilo looked down at the paper in his hand again: "I hope you bring good news."

Garonin looked calm, he just owed his body slightly and sighed: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, Your Majesty."

"Yes." Shilo nodded, raised his eyelids and looked at Garonin: "Didn't the person catch up?"

"Yes." Garonin said slowly: "The light cavalry of the city guard chased west along the Lancang Canal for twenty miles and caught up with the suspicious merchant ship, but when they caught up, the ship stopped on the shore and there was no one on the ship."

"... Let's continue." Shilo still looked motionless.

"The scout reported, after searching around, there was news. It was said that just in the evening, someone saw the boat parked on the shore. Then the people on the boat got on the shore, transported things from the cabin, and built two airships. Some people left on airships, while the rest scattered in the wild and rode horses away."

Shilo was silent for a while. He put down what he had in his hand and sighed softly: "Okay... Since this is the case, it's different to chase again. Hum... and then move, it's true that the Tulips family's style. I think this retreat was prepared long before they robbed the prison, and even the airship was prepared. I think the father and daughter of the Liszt family, as well as the important figures such as Darling Chen, must have taken the airship to the northwest and went to the sky, so it would be difficult to catch up. The rest of the people who ran away on horseback on the shore were just some minions, so they didn't have to struggle to chase them. It was worthless."

Garonin was not surprised by Hilo's reaction, he nodded: "I think so too. But... Your Majesty, the Tulips family should be cautious in how they react, otherwise..."

Shilo smiled, looked at Garonin, and nodded: "You prefer to use your brain more than Aker, which is great. Those guys from Thor Whip are full of indignation and shouting to kill. Even Aker advocates making me tougher... It seems that your opinion seems to be a little different from him?"

Although he knew that the emperor deliberately wanted to set himself on the opposite side of Aker, Garonin was not surprised at all. If the emperor wanted to firmly sit, he could not rely too much on Aker's Thunder Whip system. He, the leader of the royal guards system, would naturally be carried out as a check and balance. Garonin had long been enlightened.

"Your Majesty, my opinion is that this matter cannot be placed on the table after all. If you openly order a reprimand, it will only intensify the current situation. The things in front of you are all very complicated, just like a big meal. Tulips's house should be the last main course. If you pick up a knife and fork and start the main course now, I am afraid that the appetizers before the meal will be a little difficult to deal with. I think that since the Duke of the Tulips' house has written you a private letter, it is better for you to reply with a private letter. Moreover, you must find a suitable candidate, go to the northwest and see the Duke with your own eyes."

Shilo smiled, this time his smile was filled with undisguised appreciation!

"General Garonin, I originally belonged to Panin. Unfortunately..."

Garonin's expression changed and he quickly said, "Panin's serious injury has not healed, so it is difficult to take such a big task, and..."

Before he could say it, Shilo smiled faintly and said, "And on the day of the coup, Panin killed too much. Even if he had had some affection with the Tulips family, he would have been cut off long ago. Send him to the northwest, if he angers my little aunt..."

Looking at Garonin's ugly expression, Hilo waved his hand: "Okay, don't worry so much. I don't doubt the loyalty of the Garonin family. Your family has made sacrifices for me and sacrificed a lot. Panin even sacrificed an arm for me. I feel quite guilty about him. How could he let him take a risk to the northwest in such a thing? I have written the letter to the northwest."

As he said that, he smiled softly and pointed to the paper on the table full of words: "It's just a messenger's candidate, what advice do you have?"

"Originally... it is most suitable to choose a young child from the Luolin family. The Luolin family has a close relationship with the Tulip family. I think even if the Tulip family is dissatisfied, they will not break up with the messenger of the Luolin family." Garonin said lightly.

Shilo frowned first, then let go of his brows and glanced at Garonin: "Oh? Do you think you should pick someone from the Rollin's house?"

"I think... General Aker's second son is the right person." Garonin lowered his head.

Shilo was silent for a while, with a strange smile on his face, but shook his head and said, "This person is not good. Change to another one."

Garonin raised his head and looked embarrassed: "Your Majesty rejected this candidate, so... I can't think of anyone else."

Hilo sighed, but his expression towards Garonin became more and more kind: "I thought of someone. He had never touched his New Year's Eve, and he had a deep personal trainer with your son, and he has never been alienated from me. Moreover, he has friendship with people from the Tulip family, and he is the best candidate."

"Oh? You're talking about...Earl Villa? Lord Ross?"

Garonin thought for a moment and said, "Ros is indeed a suitable candidate. I am dull, and indeed His Majesty is extremely intelligent..."

Shilo shook his head, but suddenly he suddenly jumped away: "How is Panin's mood these two days?"

"..." Garonin thought for a while and said carefully: "I was in good mood, but I was thinking hard all day long with my sword in my arms. But I was in good spirits. The doctor and the magician of the church saw that the wound had healed, but my body was still a little weak. I think I could heal in another one or two months."

Shilo nodded, speaking seriously: "I was shocked by the incident in the palace today. Now the Imperial Guard is a new army. The Red Feather Cavalry needs a general who can rest assured. I only want Panin for this position! I will wait for the position. When Panin is injured better, I will officially be appointed."

After a pause, Shilo slowed down and said slowly: "Do you understand my intention?"
