Alien Knights

Chapter 545: Guests from the South

After attending the bishop's council meeting, Jacob, with his cronies and supporters, stepped out of the gate of the church under the watchful eyes of the believers.

The gloomy, hawk-faced cardinal glanced back at the cross above the church and whispered, "It's all the Lord's will, and he's testing us to see if we're still up to the task." The determination to defend the faith with weapons!"

Another cardinal looked at Jacob and said worriedly: "I heard that the Southern Empire has very strict supervision on gunpowder weapons. If you want to purchase large quantities, even the noble groups in the empire may not be able to do so." Now, where can we get so many guns?"

Jacob glanced at the questioner, and said contemptuously: "The Church of the Heavenly Father has existed on this continent for thousands of years, and our catechumens are scattered in every corner of the world. How can a mere weapon Block the determination of those believers to be holy?"

"You mean, someone can provide us with a large number of Imperial weapons?"

Just as Jacob was about to speak, a church deacon rushed to his side and whispered, "Master Bishop, the one from the south is here."

Jacob's eyes widened, his expression brightened: "Are you here? Where is he now?"

The deacon looked distressed and hesitated.

Jacob frowned and shouted: "Why are you hesitating?! Say it quickly!"

"That lord is now in the prison of the First Inquisition..."

Jacob was taken aback: "Prison? What is he doing there?!"

The deacon said with a sad face: "I don't know! We invited him to the banquet and prepared the most luxurious room for him. However, as soon as the gentleman's carriage entered the capital of the Pope, it went straight to the Inquisition..."

Jacob rubbed his temples with his fingers, and said helplessly, "You lead the way ahead, I'm going to see him now!"

"yes!"

The First Inquisition, Prison of Repentance.

As the most frightening building on the entire continent, the First Inquisition already exists almost like a "hell" in the eyes of many people.

From the surface, the First Heresy Inquisition is nothing more than a two-storey low bungalow, covering an area of ​​less than 2,000 square meters.

But if you really walk into it, you will find that this building is like a pyramid buried deep in the earth, and the above-ground part is just the tip of the iceberg.

The underground part of the First Heresy Inquisition has a total of eleven floors, and the deeper the area, the larger the single floor.

Some people once said that the deepest layer of the First Inquisition was even larger than the secular palace of the Papal State, but this was just a rumor, and no one confirmed this statement.

As for Bishop Jacob, under the guidance of the deacon of the church, he met the "guest" from the south in the fifth underground prison of the Inquisition.

The guest was a rather young man. He was surrounded by a group of strong bodyguards who were like hills. He stood in front of a cell in the underground prison. He stared blankly through the cold iron fence. Know what to think.

Jacob looked at the group of burly men with expressionless faces who looked like puppets, and subconsciously took two steps back.

Glancing at the church knights behind him, Jacob let out a long breath, collected himself, and coughed hard.

Hearing the sound of coughing, the young man turned his head as if waking up from a dream, and looked at Jacob with a smile: "Sorry, my lord bishop, I didn't notice you coming."

The nose is full of disgusting corruption, and the feet are full of sticky flesh-like turbidity. Jacob said dissatisfiedly: "Katili, why did you come here?!"

The young man named Katili nodded and said with a smile, "Master Bishop, I am a believer of the Lord. As soon as I entered this city, I couldn't wait to feel the majesty of God."

Jacob shook his head angrily and said, "If you want to get close to the Lord, you can go to the cathedral! Or, you can also go to the mission hall!"

Katili turned around, took two steps closer to Jacob, and said with a smile: "The people under the rule of God are a bunch of dull lambs. If they are at ease for too long, they will start to have doubts and thoughts." The heart of negligence. So, what is the best way to let them learn how to maintain awe and how to reflect on their original intentions as quickly as possible?"

Looking at Katila's overly pale face, Jacob's right eyelid twitched: "The best way?"

The young man shrugged and said in an unusually relaxed tone: "It's very simple, just let them see their own kind being skinned, bled, cramped, roasted, and finally served on the table."

Jacob's eyes widened in an instant, his fingertips trembled slightly, his mouth opened slightly but he couldn't speak any words.

Katili walked past Jacob without stopping, and said, "Come on, my lord bishop, let's talk about business."

Smelling the strong scent of perfume left in the air that the young man walked by, Jacob looked at the pile of bones in the prison cell that had been eaten by rats, and his right eyelid couldn't stop jumping again. up.

Muxi City, the king's bedroom.

"Don't you think our daughter is a little precocious?"

On the huge warming bed in the palace bedroom, Deirdre, who covered her chest with a piece of fur, frowned and glanced at the silver-haired Valkyrie next to her husband who had fallen asleep after being happy, and said in a low voice: "The other girls three When I was 5 years old, I only thought about toys and food every day, but Aurora told me that she wanted to leave Muxi City and go outside."

Todd looked down at his restless desire under the quilt, and sighed: "The palace life is too depressing for her, it's normal to want to go out."

Deirdre bit her lip and said softly, "Aurora told me that she wanted to go to your hometown..."

Todd froze for a moment, then turned to look at Deirdre's him, and found that there were too many emotions in the other's eyes.

Deirdre lowered her head and said slowly: "Aurora is your daughter and my only one. In the future, she will become one of the heirs of the kingdom..."

Deirdre's words did not continue here, but Todd had already understood her deep meaning.

"Aurora just thinks that the life in the palace is too boring. Let her walk more in the city, and she will soon forget about it."

After hearing Todd's words, Deirdre nodded helplessly.

Todd put his arms around Deirdre's shoulders lightly, and cast a questioning look at him.

Deirdre's cheeks were flushed, she covered her chest with her hands, and shook her head in a panic: "I really can't do it today, I feel like I'm going to collapse."

Todd was a little disappointed, held Deirdre in his arms, and kissed her forehead lightly: "Go to sleep."

Early the next morning, Todd, who was no longer sleepy, woke up from the bed, looked at the two women beside him who were dreaming, and tiptoed up from the bed.

Under the service of the servants, Todd, who was dressed, walked into the garden of the royal palace. In the beautiful scenery full of flowers, he enjoyed his breakfast while looking at the distant city.
