In this era, nobles were always able to obtain some privileges.
When he heard that the visitor was a noble, Temple Guard stopped obstructing him.
It didn't even require a notification, it was released directly.
However, there is still a Temple Guard, sitting next to the coachman, guiding the coachman in the direction of progress.
After a while, the carriage stopped in front of a very religious building.
The coachman was asked to stay outside, and Temple Guard was responsible for leading the way for Lynn.
They came to an office and Temple Guard knocked on the door.
"Your Excellency, Security Officer, Baron Brandon, who calls himself Toussaint, requests a meeting."
Soon, a response came from the office.
"Let him in."
Temple Guard opened the door and made a please gesture to Lynn.
"Please come in."
Lynn walked in and saw Chappelle working at the desk.
"Close the door."
"Yes."
Temple Guard Close the door.
Chappelle stood up, walked to the door, pressed against it, and listened to what was going on outside.
Lynn sat on the seat where Chappelle was sitting just now.
"Don't worry, I've checked with Witcher Senses, your men are gone."
"It's always right to be careful," Chappelle sat down opposite Lynn. This seat is usually occupied by those who are being interrogated by him, "Sir Lynn, is there anything that requires you to come to Temple Isle in person? In fact, you can send someone to report. It is safer for us to meet outside."
"Are you still afraid of being monitored on your territory?"
Lynn knocked on the wall, but no sound came out.
Obviously, this office is protected by a sound barrier. No sound can be heard within this office.
Chappelle smiled and said, "It's just a professional habit."
Lynn Put his hands on the table, interlock his fingers, and rest his chin on the back of his hands.
"I came here this time to actually hope that you would carefully select a group of people within Eternal Fire to re-establish a department."
"The tasks of this department are mainly responsible for the affairs of Redania and Temeria."
As soon as he heard that there were new instructions, Chappelle immediately sat upright.
The last instruction issued by Lynn was the last time.
Every instruction from Lynn further increases the influence of Eternal Fire.
Since he succeeded the real Chappelle, in the short period of time now, in the entire Novigrad, from the nobles and rich to the common people, almost everyone believes in Eternal Fire. Even gangsters and prostitutes will recite a few hymns to pray for peace and salvation.
Therefore, since it is an instruction that requires Lynn to come over, it must be unusual.
"I'm all ears."
Lynn nodded and continued.
"In the next few months, I will go to various major cities in Redania and Temeria to contact the orphanages there, provide them with supplies and funds, and provide them with protection."
"Of course, none of this is free. In exchange, I have the priority to provide job opportunities to those children."
"You know my true identity and can probably guess what I want to do, but I am not supporting those children so that they will die on Trial of the Grasses's operating table in the future."
"I will give them a future, a future where they can achieve great things as long as they are willing to work hard."
"Of course, in a country founded by witchers, there cannot be only witchers, but people from all walks of life are needed. No matter what they study, as long as they succeed in their studies, I will arrange them in suitable positions and give them a bright future."
"As for you, my friend, the task of protecting the safety of those orphanages and escorting supplies needs to be completed by the new department of Eternal Fire."
"And this is also a great opportunity for Eternal Fire to further expand its sphere of influence and increase its influence."
After listening to Lynn's description, Chappelle was greatly shocked.
He was mentally prepared in his heart, but he still underestimated Lynn's ambition.
The other party actually wanted to spread the gospel to two neighboring countries.
Moreover, they are the two major powers with the highest comprehensive national strength ranking among Northern Kingdoms.
Chappelle frowned slightly and remained silent.
After a long while, he considered it carefully and said.
"I'm not questioning you, just...Lynn, why don't you outsource the task of escorting supplies and protecting the orphanage to a mercenary group? If you are worried about the mercenary group's self-stealing behavior, you can also hire those big mercenary groups with high credit ratings. Wouldn't the cost be lower?"
Just thinking about it, Chappelle can already predict that the scale and budget of this new department will inevitably be larger than Temple Guard.
Of course, with the size of this city Novigrad, it is not a problem to choose suitable candidates.
But this budget is probably going to be overwhelming.
As the saying goes, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are when you are not a master. Since Chappelle took the position of safety officer and was overwhelmed by a large number of documents and reports, he naturally developed the habit of budgeting carefully, saving when he can, and looking at the cost-effectiveness of everything.
"Because this has nothing to do with cost, the church's weapons must be firmly in its own hands."
Parliamentary struggles are just for fun. If you really want to do something big, you have to use the barrel of a gun to bring about political power.
Besides, Syndicate and Brotherhood Without Banners are not armed forces that can be put on the bright side. Therefore, Order of Hospitallers, which is engaged in medical charity and helping those in need, is the best external output force.
Under Lynn's explanation, Chappelle finally understood, but then he asked worriedly.
"But can the kings and nobles of Redania and Temeria agree to our expansion of our sphere of influence?"
In fact, Lynn had thought about this before, but he wasn't too worried.
"As long as we make a political donation to them, they will agree."
Civilian military organizations other than demon hunters are basically not difficult to deal with. For example, Order of the White Rose in the original book and Order of the Flaming Rose in the game can even obtain territory from the king.
Of course, later, Order of the Flaming Rose was deprived of his territory by King Foltest and Radovid V and became cannon fodder. There were other reasons.
Either because he committed suicide, or something big happened.
But at least, in the more than ten years before 1271, there was no need to worry about the above things happening.
"By the way, the name of this new department must be the name I gave it:"
"Order of Hospitallers."
Triss, Keira, and Foltest, under the protection of a group of heavy cavalry, arrived at Maribor City located in the south of Vizima city.
Outside Maribor City, a team has been waiting here for a long time.
Seeing the king's flag appear, Prince Maribor Hereward and his wife Dobrochna hurried forward to greet him.
Seeing his cousin who looked very similar to himself get off the carriage, Hereward and his wife beside him bowed.
