Others thought that the Inquisition of the Holy Church,
It is nothing more than a clerical body that judges crimes against the Holy Church.
Even church insiders thought that this was just an organization to supervise them.
Even many senior officials, even people at the level of Secretary Archbishop, feel that,
This is just an agency under the Pope's control to supervise them, so it is nothing to be afraid of.
But little did they know that the Pope himself knew only a little about this institution.
He only knew that the reason why the director of the Inquisition was called the [Dark Emperor] was
It's because the power controlled by the [Dark Emperor] is not much worse than that of the Pope.
It can be said that where the church's sphere of influence is, there is the influence of the Inquisition.
However, the Church is in the light and the Inquisition is in the dark.
Just as the Pope and the Arbitrator were thinking about how to reject Knock,
Fiona, who was teasing Rusty above, suddenly interrupted.
"All Templars on duty, please get out. No one is allowed to approach within 100 meters of the main hall!"
The Templars took the order and exited the hall directly.
After Fiona confirmed that there were only seven of them left in the hall, she spoke to Nok:
"Yes, you can go to the Inquisition.
Then carry out the Holy Spear inheritance and inherit that position.
From now on, you will deal with Xiao Tutu directly regarding matters related to the Inquisition.
However, you all should keep the matter of his joining the Inquisition a secret from me. "
Fiona directly decided where Nok would go in the future.
"By the way, you still need a formal reward. Marcus, please discuss it with Boros.
Come up with a reward charter that is visible and unsuspecting.
By the way, a baptism ceremony was held for Nok to complete the inheritance of divine magic.
In addition, it was arranged for Nock Lane to enter the seminary as a name, so that he would not have to practice for three years.
But it must continue until he completes the inheritance of the Holy Spear.
After everything is over, he can graduate from the seminary early,
Returned to serve at Reims Cathedral.
During his tenure, you should take more care of him...
Forget it, let him do it himself. "
Fiona said, turned to look at Nok, and asked: "Little Nok, this time the Cardinal election,
I'll let you decide who wins. Choose a boss who can help you and not hinder your development.
Who do you want to choose? "
As soon as Fiona said this, everyone present except Rusty's eyes widened.
The Pope and the Archbishop directly objected: "Lady Fiona, this is inappropriate!"
Turonev looked at Nok enviously, but did not speak.
Anyway, this is not his business. Their Inquisition does not interfere with the normal personnel arrangements within the church.
Joseph also felt something was wrong, but considering Fiona's warning, he did not dare to speak.
Nok himself was petrified.
The selection of church cardinals is so childish?
There are twenty bishops from all over the mainland outside.
I am working hard to express myself for this position.
But they just started with fighting spirit and expectation,
Is it going to end here because of one of my own decisions?
Nok could only say that this kind of thing is really...
Make him feel happy!
Is this power?
If he says a name now, the cardinal's position will fall to the ground.
However, after Nok's excitement, he felt sad again.
What if he himself was among the twenty?
What if this happened to him?
Is he, Nook Lane, willing?
With Nok's silence, the atmosphere became a little tense.
The Pope and the Archbishop feared that a name would suddenly pop out of Nok's mouth.
Make this election a joke.
But they didn't dare to refute Fiona anymore, and they could only hope that Nok would not make a decision casually.
Nok looked up at everyone and suddenly smiled.
"This is not urgent. Since mother-in-law, you just asked me to be the referee yesterday,
Then I want to get to know the candidates first. But do you really decide that I will decide the final winner? "
Knock seemed to be asking Fiona, but he was actually asking the two popes for their opinions.
After hearing what Nok said, the two popes looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.
Unexpectedly, Fiona decided directly: "I told you to decide, so I will let you decide.
Anyway, since these people can be selected, they must be outstanding.
It is only a matter of time before he becomes a pillar of the church in the future. It’s your choice no matter who you choose. Choose someone who is good friends with you.
Aren't the candidates who are beneficial to you also convenient for you? Do you want to choose someone who has a grudge against you?
Making things difficult for you in every possible way? "
Nok shook his head and replied: "Of course I don't want to. But I don't have the answer in my heart yet, so I might as well take advantage of these seven days to
I will contact these people privately and use them as an assessment. Do you agree? "
As soon as Nok's words came out, the two Popes understood that Nok Lane agreed with Fiona's decision.
It was too late for both of them to object.
If you can't object, then you can only try to maintain the face of the church and don't let the election become a child's play.
Otherwise, there will be no need to carry out this kind of selection method in the future.
Thinking of this, the Pope immediately said to Knock: "Bishop Ryan, you are going to secretly assess these people.
I can agree. However, I have a condition, that is, I will put you on the judging panel.
It's up to you to convince the other members of the judging panel to let you conduct a secret assessment of the contestants. "
Nok thought for a while and said: "No problem. But you must give me a formal appointment order as a judge.
I also need to inform the judging panel to meet with me for a meeting in the afternoon, and I will convince them at the meeting. "
Seeing that the overall situation was decided, the Pope and the Archbishop accepted their fate.
"Bishop Ryan, although Lady Fiona has given you the power to decide the candidate.
But, the general election has already begun, and it is not appropriate to stop it now.
Therefore, I hope you will consider the face of the church and make the election look fair.
OK? "
Nok smiled and said: "Don't worry, His Majesty the Pope, I will definitely protect the face of the church.
There will never be any shady secrets in the general election! "
The two popes looked at Nok's upright look and wished they could slap him in the face.
There is no shady story yet, but Nook Lane is the biggest shady story!
Seeing that the Pope had reached an agreement with Knock, Fiona hugged Rusty and stood up.
"Are we done talking? Let's break up when we're done. Little Nok is coming with me.
Marcus, just have Little Knock’s reward delivered to the inn with great fanfare.
If Little Nok is no longer in the post house, let the people in the post house help take over.
Little Tutu, go back first and discuss it with the old boys at the tribunal.
Tell them my decision.
When the election is over, I will ask Little Knock to report to you. "
Fiona finished arranging everything, hugged Rusty, and left the hall with Joseph and Nok.
The three Popes were left standing there, unable to recover for a long time.
"Oh, what the hell! I finally understand why the teacher doesn't want to be the pope.
You have your ancestor to help you make decisions about everything. This pope feels really aggrieved. "
"Okay, Your Majesty, stop talking. You can retire after the election. I still have a lot of days to live!"
"That's right, Boros, thank you for your hard work! I see, when Nok Lane grows up,
You can just give up your seat! "
"I think so too, but I'm afraid this guy won't do it! It's hard to guess what he's thinking."
"Turonev, you boy, keep that boy under guard for me, don't let him grow crooked! When I retire,
I will go to Reims Cathedral to retire and stare at him every day! "
Facing the pope and archbishop complaining to each other, Turonev smiled.
"As the chief arbiter, I can't control him. When he inherits that position, I will still be under his control!"
Turonev's words made the two of them curious.
"Turonev, tell me honestly, what does the [Shepherd] do?
Why do you have to be a Holy Spear holder to serve? "
The Pope relied on his seniority and high status to ask questions directly.
Turonev looked at the Pope in embarrassment and said: "Your Majesty, aren't you making things difficult for me?
I don't even know your identity, what can I say casually? "
Marcus didn't buy it, and kicked Turonev directly: "You bastard, don't try to get along with me.
I really can’t say that the church won’t have so many specious rumors in recent years.
It's obvious that you don't want to talk about it and are just pretending to be mysterious. Rather than being unable to say it! "
Archbishop Doug also looked at Turonev suspiciously, his eyes full of curiosity.
Turonev looked at the hall where there were only three people, and it was best not to hold back and whisper.
"I'll tell you quietly, but don't tell anyone, you know?"
The two popes nodded to express their understanding.
They are familiar with this familiar smell, so they keep it a secret!
Everyone who tells secrets likes to say this.
In the end, wasn't it the person who spread the secret first?
It seemed that Turonev himself was panicking.
The two popes saw through it but did not say anything about it.
Cooperatively approached Turonev.
"Let me tell you, in fact, Father Dante was once a [Pastor]!"
ah! ?
That's it?
You, Turonev, have been nervous for a long time and are you just telling us this?
The pope and archbishop glared at Turonev resentfully, dissatisfied with this answer.
The Pope even started to move his hands and feet, threatening: "Turonev brat, do you think I am getting old?
Can't beat you anymore? Or do you think you are now a saint, your wings have become stronger, and you dare to tease me! "
"Pope suit, now!"
The pope shouted loudly, and the papal robes and crown on his body radiated a dazzling light.
"Wait! Your Majesty! You have to calm down! It's not that I don't want to say it! I don't know either!
All I know is that Father Dante served as a "Pastor", and later Van Helsing also served as a "Pastor"!
Moreover, even when he was burned at the stake by the church, Father Dante still held the position of [Pastor].
And [Monster Hunter] Van Helsing, even if he is hunted down by the Inquisition,
He is still a [roving shepherd]. In fact, the people from the tribunal only pursued him but did not kill him.
In fact, the Inquisition personnel who died during the hunt for Van Helsing were not killed by Van Helsing.
Instead, he died at the hands of the monster that Van Helsing hunted.
That's all I know.
I have been looking through the church files in the past two days, and there is only one description of [Pastor] in it. "
“Every [pastor] is a being who bears the sins of the church, and the Inquisition can hunt them down.
Judge them, but never betray them. "
Turonev's words left the two popes confused.
"Are you sure you remember correctly? If there is such a contradiction, is it really recorded in the file?
Isn't it the nonsense you are telling us to deal with? "
The Pope looked at Turonev suspiciously.
Turonev said dumbfounded: "How dare I do that?"
"You have!" the Pope and the Archbishop said in unison.
Turonev couldn't help but rolled his eyes and swore: "I swear, I really didn't lie.
This is because after I was promoted yesterday, I wanted to win Nook Lane into the tribunal.
I went out of my way to look up the records about the descendants of the Holy Spear, and then I found the words about [The Shepherd].
However, the specific duties and work content of [Pastoral] belong to the five-star top secret files of the Inquisition.
Only [Dark Emperor] and the Successor of the Holy Spear can read it.
If others want to check it, they must obtain permission from the [Dark Emperor].
But even though Master [Dark Emperor] carries the name of the director of the tribunal, you also know that
In recent years, no one except the deputy director has seen him at all.
If the deputy director hadn't always denied that he was the director, we all suspected that he was the [Dark Emperor]. "
Hearing Turonev tell the big secret of the Inquisition, plus the words of the five-star top secret file,
The two of them also knew that nothing could be asked.
Because the identity of the [Dark Emperor] is also a five-star top secret in the church’s files.
Not even the Pope himself has access to it.
Only the mysterious administrator in the archives management room has five-star authority.
If the Pope wants to check it, he can only apply.
But once the five-star files are accessed, even the Pope must accept joint interrogation by high-level officials.
Interrogate the purpose of accessing the five-star files.
Therefore, upon hearing about the Five Star Files, the pope and archbishop lost interest.
However, [Pastor] is actually related to the church's "sinner" Dante and the church defector Van Helsing.
This had to make the two of them curious.
What happened back then, and why did these two pillars of the Inquisition,
Will he be hunted down or even "persecuted" by the church?
Could it be that the Pope back then was competing for power with the [Dark Emperor]?
Turonev seemed to see the doubts in the two people's hearts, and explained quietly:
"Actually, Father Dante took the initiative to ask to be burned at the stake."
"What!"
