The young Duke directly revealed his identity, and the monks behind the Archbishop all showed surprised looks on their faces. However, the Young Duke had no scruples and did not care at all. If others knew about it, this would be enough to cause a huge uproar in the entire Christian world. wave.
The monarch of the Principality of Normandy, Duke William, turned out to be an evil dragon raging on the continent.
Archbishop Robert showed a bitter smile. He understood that it was precisely because Michael Monastery was far away from the mainland, like an isolated island, that the young Duke did not mind revealing his identity, otherwise they who knew this secret would inevitably be executed.
Michael's monastery both imprisoned them and protected them.
"If you are a dragon, you can still conquer England without leading an army of 10,000 people. England is the most powerful country in the whole of Britain. If you conquer England, you will almost have conquered Scotland and Wales. .”
Archbishop Robert said calmly that Duke William, who transformed into an evil dragon, was so powerful that he could run rampant across the entire continent and even directly killed the brave Francis, the holder of the Holy Sword, in Germany. The dragon-slaying mercenary group was forced into a mercenary group, and the princess was also snatched directly from the castle.
Although he was exiled to St. Michael's Monastery, he was not ignorant of the news from the outside world. In any case, a big man like him, as a cardinal, was also very important in the church.
"But I appear as a dragon, and I can only conquer, but not rule." Duke William shook his head, "My dear uncle, you should understand that neither the emperor nor the pope nor even the kings and knights of Europe can Allowing a dragon to rule a country, my earthly identity is of paramount importance, and the patron saint of England is particularly disgusted, and he will not watch me conquer Britain."
Robert looked at his nephew in silence, and suddenly felt an indescribable absurdity. The evil dragon actually begged him, and as a servant of God, he actually wanted to help this evil dragon.
This fact is so ridiculous.
"You once said to me that St. George is the patron saint of the Christian army. If two Christian armies from different countries fight, then God will always be on the side with more troops. As for St. George, he will not be able to do both. Help each other, but if one side declares Saint George as the patron saint of his country, then Saint George will side with the side that declares himself as the patron saint.”
Angels and saints actually have their own positions. God can be fair, but angels and saints cannot be so because of their patronage. When England invades Scotland, Wales, and Ireland, the patron saints of each country cannot remain neutral and can only secretly support their own side.
For example, St. Michael appeared on Mount Tambu and declared to protect the believers here. Therefore, the commander of the angelic army actually sided with the French in the Hundred Years War between England and France, helping the French fight against powerful enemies, so that most of France's territory Although it fell, this isolated island under the nose of the British army was never occupied by the British army.
Joan of Arc was inspired by Michael, and she suddenly became a saint who saved the country from a shepherdess, defeating the British army. This is the position of angels and saints.
After Joan of Arc was canonized, France immediately made her the patron saint of France. However, the British church rebuked Joan of Arc, believing that there was no such thing as Joan of Arc, but only a witch named Joan of Arc, and did not recognize Joan of Arc. Saint status.
Duke William could imagine that his conquest of Britain would not be easy. Whether it was England's own resistance, England's patron saint, Celtic gods, and Britain's King Arthur, all were obstacles to him. Even Ireland's patron saint, Saint Patrick would also be his enemy.
"I need help from the flag of St. Michael," William said.
Conquest was not going to be smooth sailing, and the enemies would not just stand there obediently on the battlefield and stretch their necks out for him to cut. If he wanted to conquer Britain, there was no value in negotiating peace with these old forces.
Wasn't the Principality of Normandy established by the ancestors of the Viking pirates who invaded France?
As a descendant of pirates, if the local residents don't want to give money, there is no need to say anything, just chop the other person to death and take the money directly.
Michael's flag will protect William's army. As long as the flag is planted on the ships of the army, all ships can be regarded as moving French territory, and this territory is blessed by Saint Michael.
The living saint may be at the second or third level, and the dead saint may be at the third or fourth level. However, as the patron saint of a country, the weakest saint is at the fourth level, within the realm of the patron. It can be regarded as the fifth level, but there is also a difference between the fifth level and the fifth level.
Michael, the chief warrior of God, the king of heaven, a person similar to God, the supreme commander of the army of heaven, the archangel, is the embodiment of absolute justice, and the most glorious angel in heaven after Lucifer.
The patron saint of the country is at the fifth level when he stays in his country's territory, and the Archangel Michael is also at the fifth level. However, at the same fifth level, there is no comparison between the two.
Therefore, even the confident William had to rely on the power of St. Michael, and having the support of the emperor and the blessing of the Pope itself gave the war to conquer Britain an air of holy war.
William, who has religious legitimacy, already has the qualifications to go out with the flag of Michael. In this way, Michael will be on his side. At least before landing on the British Peninsula, all journeys will be smooth. There will be obstacles from the patron saints of England and Celtic gods.
"I really miss my Holy Sword of Dawn. I used to hold it, even in human form, I was invincible, but now I have lost the qualification to use it."
Duke William sighed to himself, patted his backpack, and the private soldiers who appeared from the magic circle again detained Archbishop Robert. The monks looked at each other, but they were unable to respond under the threat of swords. I could only watch Duke William walk into the monastery and take away the holy object Michael's flag.
"William, give up your unrealistic dream of conquering Britain. You will not succeed."
A clear voice sounded in the church. Under the flag of St. Michael waving in the wind, a young knight wearing armor and a crown was pointing his sword at him, "Today I will thwart your ambition here."
William looked at the handsome young man with a halo on his head in front of him. He was handsome in military uniform, and the crown symbolizing royal power was shining brightly. William lowered his head in greeting and bowed slightly, "Dear king, respected saint, please Forgive me for not obeying my order, after all, conquering you has nothing to do with you~!"
After William finished speaking, he instantly pulled out the sword from his pocket and looked at the young man opposite him with precision, "Even if you were once the king of England, even if you were canonized as a saint, but you came to France from Britain, see How much strength do you still have now? My evil dragon is now at the fourth level."
