The First Move, Slane Theocracy's Discovery
"Khalinsha"
Downwater Month, March 20th.
"Colorless Tranquility" hotel.
The huge figure of Barghest was lying at the feet of Tang Zheng, wagging its tail from time to time. Even if it was lying on its stomach, its whole head was completely higher than the table.
The two black chair corners were exposed to the air, giving off a cold glow.
The atmosphere in the room was a little quiet.
Tang Zheng placed one hand on the back of Barghest's neck, gently rubbing the thick black hair, and placed the other hand on his leg.
With a thoughtful look on his face.
Opposite Tang Zheng, three figures were sitting.
Holy Kingdom One of Nine Colors is a black "Pabel", a young man with short blond hair wearing a lightweight armor, and a Cleric wearing aqua blue Holy Seal.
"Sorry, although "Martial Lord" Ge Jin and I know each other, we are not as familiar as you think." Tang Zheng shook his head and spoke softly to break the silence in the room.
"But according to rumors, "Martial Lord" Ge Jin's departure from the empire has a great relationship with Mr. Tang."
The Cleric said with his hands crossed and flat on the table, maintaining a trace of respect.
As a member of Temple "Cleric Corps", he has never been very fond of the Adventurer's Guild and adventurers, but the one in front of him is not only powerful, but also a Priest who believes in gods.
When facing a powerful Divine System Magic Caster, Cleric man, it is natural to remain respectful.
"This matter is being talked about so much that it seems like there are many hidden secrets."
Tang Zheng was a little helpless and explained softly:
"Actually, the whole thing is not that complicated. "Martial Lord" Go Jin originally joined the empire's Imperial Arena to become stronger."
"It's just that Imperial Arena and Battle can no longer make him stronger. I mentioned to the other party "Abelion Hills"
Among them, there exists a strong Demi-Human known as "Ten Demi-Human Heroes"."
"I just didn't expect that "Martial Lord" Ge Jin would really leave the empire. Because of this, I received a reward from His Majesty "Blood Emperor"."
Tang Zheng sighed and said, "You are really stingy."
This sentence.
Let the men Pabel and Cleric glance at each other subconsciously without making any response.
After all, His Majesty "Blood Emperor" is the king of a country. As an adventurer, Tang Zheng can probably be evaluated without too many worries.
But they represent Holy Kingdom. No matter what the reason is, they cannot evaluate the kings of other countries without authorization. This is not only disrespectful, but may even involve serious diplomatic issues.
The young man with short blond hair on the side suddenly clenched his fists, and said with a suppressed voice that was a little out of control, "Is this the reason why "Martial Lord" Ge Jin appeared in Abelion Hills--"
"Roberts." Pabel stretched out his hand and pressed on Roberts's shoulder.
Tang Zheng looked at the three people with doubtful expressions on their faces.
"So, what happened."
"Is it related to Martial Lord" Ge Jin?"Tang Zheng asked.
"Tang, you don't know how much trouble this "Martial Lord" Ge Jin has brought us."
Pabel Thinking of what happened during this period, a rare hint of anger appeared on his cold and calm face.
The news could be hidden from ordinary people, but not from him. He was also a member of the nobility, but he felt angry and sad about those idiots who dared to trade with Demi-Human!
Pabel can't help but want to open the heads of those pig-like guys to see what's inside the heads of these losers.
"About "Martial Lord" Ge Jin, there is one more thing I need to ask." Cleric man suddenly spoke, interrupting Pabel,
Speak seriously.
Tang Zheng's eyes flashed.
It seems that the "black" Pabel, who has the highest status among the three, is not the leader, but this man Cleric.
"Kelart person?"
Tang Zheng This thought flashed through his mind, and he nodded without changing his expression.
The man Cleric asked with mixed true and false information, obviously intending to conceal some information, especially the situation of Abelion Hills.
Tang Zheng naturally pretended not to know, and after a brief thought, "As far as I know, Ge Jin's character will indeed do such a thing."
"Although the other party is a Demi-Human, he is actually a Warrior with a noble spirit. I am quite sure of this."
Speaking of which.
Tang Zheng looked at the man Cleric opposite. "Of course, there is another situation."
"What?" Cleric The man was shocked.
"I did it on purpose." Tang Zheng responded.
The men Pabel and Cleric glanced at each other again, and their expressions became a little more solemn. This was the same as their previous speculation.
The situation in Abelion Hills may be more complicated than they originally expected.
"Your Excellency Tang, I know you have a lot of doubts, so we want to invite you -" Cleric The man looked at Tang Zheng eagerly.
According to Lord Kelart.
If 1 Martial Lord"Ge Jin really let Roberts go on purpose, then the other party must be sending them some kind of message.
They need to get in touch with "Martial Lord" Ge Jin as soon as possible to further determine the status of Abelion Hills.
The threat from the united Demi-Human Species clan is really too great!
"I refuse." Tang Zheng said directly to the Cleric man.
Cleric The man's expression was a little stiff.
Pabel was not surprised. He glanced at the Cleric man from the corner of his sharp and slender eyes, and secretly said, "Too impatient."
"I wouldn't mind providing you with some information."
"But don't forget, you three, that I am an adventurer and have no interest in participating in some of your Holy Kingdom plans.
Tang Zheng stroked Barghest's hand and said seriously, "Of course, if you need some kind of assistance from us! Free Will", then please go to the Adventurer's Guild first to issue the entrustment."
These words.
The Cleric man was a little ashamed and realized that what he just said was inappropriate.
"I will report this matter to the superiors." Pabel spoke promptly and with a very serious attitude.
"Free Will" is not an ordinary adventurer team. Although the opponent's current rating is "Gold Rank", all information shows that this is an adventurer team with the strength of "Adamantite Rank".
It is no exaggeration to say that it can be called a "national domain level" power as proof of a country's heritage.
Wanting to invite such a team of adventurers to help with just a few words is not only looking down on the other party, but also a different kind of ignorance.
"I personally apologize to you, Mr. Tang." Cleric man stood up, bent down and spoke.
After a while.
Pabel The three of them left together.
"I didn't expect that so soon, Holy Kingdom has already started planning to enter Abelion Hills for the second time?" Tang Zheng thought thoughtfully.
This time the purpose is obviously more clear.
Tang Zheng picked it up and put it on the table, and flipped through a book called "Biography of the Roble Holy Kingdom". It contains some history, anecdotes and legends about the Holy Kingdom, which can help you better understand Holy Kingdom.
Currently.
The grain trade between Abelion Hills and Holy Kingdom was completely cut off. Saint Queen Calca and Temple made thunderous moves, allowing Tang Zheng to witness a "severe attack" with his own eyes.
A large number of nobles were "invited" to Holy Kingdom Capital. Except for some of the resisting nobles who were dealt with by Holy Knights, most of the nobles were not in any danger to their lives.
This does not mean forgiveness.
On the contrary, these nobles were all deprived of their titles, which was more painful than killing them.
Not only that!
According to the information collected by Verdant Leaf Witch, there was no unrest at the noble level after such a big thing happened, and there were no rumors of "a deal between the nobles and Demi-Human" circulating among the people.
"Only nobles of the Earl level are dealt with in order to stabilize the situation. Based on the national conditions of the Holy Kingdom, all forces will try their best to avoid the spread of "dealing with Demi-Human", otherwise it will definitely cause turmoil in the entire country."
Tang Zheng looked through the books in his hands, thinking, "Those territories left by the nobles who were removed from their titles can not only strengthen Royal Family's power, but they are also a piece of fat on the surface."
After this incident.
Tang Zheng suddenly realized that all the originally unfavorable situations were developing in a direction beneficial to the Holy Queen Calca.
Such ruthless means.
It should be the best friend's advice, Holy Kingdom Temple, the highest Priest Kelart.
Faced with the cessation of grain trading.
Tang Zheng looked relaxed and didn't have any worries. This was completely expected, and it even took longer than he initially expected.
The entire "grain trading" period has lasted for two months, from late January to late March.
The massive investment from the Northern Holy Kingdom and Southern Holy Kingdom allowed Tang Zheng to accumulate a huge amount of food storage.
There are so many that some cannot be counted.
In short, it is enough to easily carry out "Breeding Plan" in Great Forest of Tob and Abelion Hills.
"The only thing I have that can really be called a "resource" is the blank scroll of Tenth-Tier, which has been liked 65 times."
Tang Zheng sighed softly when he thought of the props in his hands that could really work.
Tenth-Tier Magic Scroll But he activated 1 Papermaking" 10 times a day and made it one by one.
At the same time.
the other side.
When Holy Kingdom was in a complicated situation for Abelion Hills and was shaking, Slane Theocracy, which is located next to Abelion Hills to the east, also discovered anomalies in Abelion Hills.
Theocracy The deepest part.
In a sacred and holy room where six statues of gods are enshrined.
Six figures of different ages, but all over 40 years old, were holding various Clean tools to clean the room, which was already clean without a trace of dust.
Everyone looked solemn and each was doing his or her own cleaning work. There was no sound in the room, only the faint sounds of breathing and cleaning.
Several people were wearing high hats and very similar Cleric robes, but the colors of the embellishments on the clothes were slightly different.
The identities of these six people are not simple.
Red corresponds to fire Cardinal-Berenice Nagua Santini.
Cyan corresponds to water Cardinal-Zinedine Delan Guelfi.
Green corresponds to the wind Cardinal-Dominic Eli White.
The brown color represents Earth Cardinal Chief—Raymond Zaku Laurentsand.
White represents light Cardinal-Ion Gassner Delacroix.
The last one, Dark Cardinal—Maximilian Oreo Laguier.
Slane Theocracy is different from other countries in the human race. It is a country with a very strong religious atmosphere. The one closest to it is Holy Kingdom.
Nothing more.
Even Holy Kingdom uses the "Holy King" as the apex and cooperates with the Temple forces to rule, rather than ruling the country entirely in a religious form like Slane Theocracy.
Because of this, the political power is not complicated. The highest-ranking officials are Pontifex Maximus and Six Great Gods.
Below are the deans of the three agencies (Justice, legislative, executive) and six miko maidens.
As the six people with the highest status in a country, it is very unbelievable to put Clean in person in other countries.
Because such small things can be left to the servants.
Each of the six Cardinals cleaned the room very neatly. With the abilities of the six people, in fact, using First-Tier and "Clean" magic was enough to Clean clean the entire room.
No one would do this because it is blasphemy against God.
It took a long time for the Clean to be completely clean.
"Thank God!"
The six Cardinal all bowed to the statue, buried their heads deeply, and waited for a moment before slowly getting up.
Everyone came to the round table in the room and sat down slowly. There was an empty chair, which was Pontifex Maximus's seat. Today's issue did not require Pontifex Maximus to come forward.
"Then the meeting begins."
The Cardinal of Wind Dominic was the first to speak, and he will serve as the host of the meeting today.
This is an old man who looks kind-hearted. He was once a member of "Sunlight Scripture". With his current image, no one would have thought that he had wiped out countless alien races.
I don't know how many Demi-Human Species and Heteromorphic Species died at the hands of this person.
As a staunch adherent of the teachings of "Human Supremacy", it is the Cardinal of Wind Dominic's lifelong pursuit to eliminate all alien races in the world.
"According to the unexpected discovery of Thousand Miles Astrologer, Abelion Hills seems to have an unexpected abnormality."
As soon as the words "Abelion Hills" were mentioned, the mellow image of the Cardinal of Wind Dominic disappeared, and there was a smell of gunpowder in his tone.
Abelion Hills was clearly annoyed that many alien races were right in front of him, but they were still not eliminated.
If the previous Cardinals were not allowed to take big actions, he would have led "Sunlight Scripture" into Abelion Hills.
"Abnormal? What happened?" The Cardinal of Fire Berenice said.
This is the only woman among the six Cardinal. Her body shape gives people a sense of roundness, her face is very friendly, and her whole body has a reassuring feeling.
There are many powerful Demi-Human groups in Abelion Hills, and "Ten Demi-Human Heroes" is a strong Demi-Human who has stepped into the Hero Realm level.
This power, even Slane Theocracy, needs to be treated seriously and cautiously. In the eyes of everyone Cardinal, it is enough to keep Abelion Hills in chaos.
