In the early morning of the fifth day of the election, Knock left the mining town with satisfaction.
However, the only ones traveling with them were Joseph and Rusty.
As for Finette, who came with him, he was left behind in Mining Town.
Last night, Finette was accused of being a "spy who attempted to sabotage the church election."
He was taken into custody by the Holy Crusaders led by Vakan and was said to be thrown into the mines.
Digging for a lifetime!
It would be useless even if Finette cried out that he was a servant of Nok.
After all, the person Vakan captured was Nok Lane's servant!
This is his deal with Knock!
Nok gave him a place, and he helped Nok torture this traitorous servant to death!
There are two types of miners in the mines, one is the free, salaried town dweller.
The other type is a criminal who is shackled and has no salary or freedom.
These criminals are doing the most dangerous work of land reclamation and prospecting deep in the mines.
When a new mineral point is found, miners from the small town will naturally mine it.
But if the monster's lair is dug, it will be these criminals who will be killed or injured.
Therefore, if Finette, who was sent to the mines, did not encounter amnesty,
In this life, I can only work as a laborer in the mines for the rest of my life!
Nok didn't want to kill him directly and take advantage of him.
Nok will torture him for the rest of his life, reminding him of the time when he betrayed Nok, and he will only regret it!
However, what Nock didn't know was that it was the night the competition ended.
A monster's lair was dug deep in the mine, and everyone present died.
After killing all the witnesses, a figure also killed a monster that planned to attack him.
Then he avoided the eyes and ears of the mine and left the mine quietly.
When Mining Town discovered this the next day, it was determined that the monsters had killed the miners.
The missing people are also defined as being devoured by monsters.
The Crusaders were responsible for clearing away the remaining monsters, but no one knew that a criminal had fled the scene.
And the guy who killed everyone and put the blame on Warcraft was none other than Finette!
However, the strength displayed by Fenette at that time was not silver level.
But at least the combat power of peak gold.
What's more, he's not a ranger at all!
Of course, this is all in the future.
Let's go back to the day Nock left.
After Nock left the mining town, he ended this so-called inspection mission.
With Joseph and Rusty, rode back to the Holy City.
However, when he returned to the inn, he heard some unpleasant news.
After Richelieu returned to the city, he shamelessly went to see the previous cardinal of France.
That is, Ake Burnos, who was nominated as the elder after he framed Nok.
Then, the news came out that Richelieu was favored by Arc Bonos and the Presbyterian Church.
He took Richelieu under his command.
In other words, Richelieu completely became a direct subordinate of Ake Bonos.
Moreover, Richelieu also asked the Presbyterian Council to take action and save Roger Fitt.
When Nok returned to the Holy City, Roger Feit was already bouncing around Richelieu.
Continue to saddle up and back.
After hearing the news, Nok suppressed his unhappiness.
Let Joseph hand over the three places he had appointed to the Pope and the Archbishop.
He took Rusty with him and did nothing.
He took off his gold-rimmed divine robe and began to wander around the holy city in casual clothes.
It was not until three days later, on the day when the results of the preliminary round were announced, that Nok put on the gold-rimmed divine robe again.
Officially appeared in front of the people of the Holy City as a general election judge!
Of course, as a judge, Nock's qualifications are a bit lacking.
Therefore, before his official appearance, the host of the conference focused on promoting Nock's achievements again.
Then Nock was invited to appear together with other judges.
Seeing the white-haired young people standing in the judging panel, if the host had not explained it in advance,
Let the audience know that this person has outstanding achievements, but is not qualified enough to continue to be promoted.
Therefore, we can only make up for the young bishop in his false duties.
I'm afraid the audience will curse.
With Nock's achievements as a foundation, he stood as a young man among a group of old men. Although he was conspicuous,
But it didn't make people feel very abrupt.
Afterwards, the host briefly introduced the names and current positions of each judge.
The most senior judge on the judging panel announced the three winners of the preliminary round.
Although two of the three winners were dark horses, one of them dropped out midway after the jury announced the favorite for the general election.
After the other two dark horses won with an overwhelming advantage, no one in the crowd had any doubts.
After all, for them, who will qualify is just a point of interest.
Who is the final winner is what matters.
The rematch was announced to take place in three days.
At that time, the final competition will be held in the square in the Holy Court.
The audience didn't have any objections to this. After the host announced the end of the preliminary round, they dispersed in twos and threes.
Only the supporters and forces behind the contestants were dissatisfied with the results of the competition.
When protesting to the judging panel, the most senior judge on the judging panel,
He left with a few words: "That was a decision made by the Pope and the Archbishop together.
If you are not satisfied with the result, you can go to the two adults to respond. I can't make the decision. "
After saying that, he smiled at Nok who was standing in the background, and then left.
The other judges followed suit and did not give others a chance to get entangled.
Nok was left alone, perhaps because he was too young, and he was suddenly surrounded by everyone.
Except for a few people with strong backgrounds who knew that Fiona was standing behind Nok, they did not participate.
Other forces who thought that Knock was just favored by the Pope and the Archbishop surrounded Knock,
They asked Nock very rudely why the person they supported lost the election.
They couldn't afford to offend the Pope and the Archbishop themselves, but they only offended a promising junior.
But they didn't care. After all, even the Pope and the Archbishop would not make things difficult for a junior because of them.
Just take action against their power.
Unexpectedly, Nok was more cunning than those old guys.
Nok looked at the people from all the major forces who gathered around him and said with an aggrieved look.
"I'm just a newcomer with mixed qualifications. How am I qualified to really participate in the selection?
So, if you ask me, I don’t know either. I'm just here as a backdrop,
It's just a matter of qualifications to prepare for future promotions.
Otherwise, you can ask others? "
Nock's words immediately silenced those who questioned him aggressively.
Because they felt that what Nok said was very reasonable and there was nothing wrong with it at all.
For a moment, I didn't even know whether I should stop Nok from leaving.
Nok took the opportunity to squeeze out of the crowd and left the venue with a few meaningful glances.
He's going to the Holy Mountain to pick up Rusty!
Because he had to attend the ceremony today, Rusty asked Joseph to take him to the Holy Mountain.
Although after these days of contact, Knock still doesn't like Joseph.
But I no longer reject contact with him.
And compared to those in the Holy City who have a different thumbnail view of him,
He preferred to hand Rusty over to Joseph, a sinner.
At least, the other party didn't plot anything against him, but looked like he wanted to atone for his sins.
Maybe the old man felt that he owed him something.
Nok thought so.
In this regard, Nok accepted Joseph's kindness to himself and Rusty with peace of mind.
Nok felt that this was what the former Cardinal of the Lionheart Kingdom owed to their Holy Mother Monastery.
The so-called compensation now can never make up for the regret in Sister Meili's heart.
Until his death, the old man hoped to see the monastery restored to its former glory.
And Father John, even before his death, emphasized that Knock should keep the last candle of the church in the Kingdom of Lionheart.
But in the end, Nok's young shoulders could not support this heavy burden.
Naturally, Nok also had regrets in his heart.
Therefore, Nok must definitely go back to the Lion Heart Kingdom.
One day, Nok will let the Crusaders set foot on the land of the Lionheart Kingdom again.
Let the church's flag rise again over the city of England.
If Joseph can still live to the day when Nok leads Iron Shoe to the Kingdom of Lionheart,
Knock must let Joseph go to the city of England in person and plant the church's flag in the center of the city with his own hands!
This is the best way for the old man to comfort the church clergy who died because of his wrong decisions!
Fortunately, Joseph didn't know Knock's plan. If he knew,
Wouldn't he kill this rebellious son as soon as possible?
Just kill yourself as soon as possible to avoid being nailed to the pillar of shame by your son himself in the future and being watched by others.
Nok arrived at the Holy Mountain, and after receiving permission from the guards, he climbed onto the Holy Mountain.
Knock didn't see Fiona this time, only Joseph who sent Rusty out.
"I leave the child to you. I can't leave the Holy Mountain recently. If anything happens, just come to the Holy Mountain to find me.
Just say hello to the guards, I've already greeted them.
Of course, when you have nothing to do, you can also bring Rusty to see me, the old man.
I quite like this child. "
Joseph was a little disappointed as he explained to Nok, knowing that Nok didn't like him.
If he asked Nok to come see him, Nok would definitely refuse, so he chose a roundabout way.
Starting with Rusty, he used the excuse that he wanted to see Rusty and asked Nok to come see him when he was free.
Knock did not answer his words, but after taking Rusty, he said to him: "Okay, I'll go back if it's okay.
I'll ask Rusty to greet Granny Fiona when she has time. "
Although Nok did not directly agree to his request, Nok's answer was no different from agreeing.
Come to see Lady Fiona, how can you avoid Joseph?
However, Joseph still warned Nok.
"Nock, when I didn't know Lady Fiona's identity before, it was okay for you to call her mother-in-law.
But now that you know Lady Fiona’s identity, you can no longer call her old lady like that.
Please call her Lady Fiona respectfully, or call her ancestor, otherwise people will say you..."
"boom!"
Before Joseph could finish his words, he was knocked away by a sudden white light.
"Shut up! You old boy is teaching nonsense again! I just like to hear this kid call me mother-in-law.
Why are you meddling in so many other things? Be a good kid and don't let your bad ideas corrupt you!
You are a worthless waste, why do you still want to teach others bad things? Go and sweep the floor for me!
There is a fallen leaf on the Holy Mountain today, so you can’t even think of resting! "
Fiona's dragon roar came from the dragon cave.
The huge dragon was so powerful that even though Nok resisted it with all his strength, he was forced to kneel on the ground.
Nok had a bitter look on his face, and he had a new understanding of the combat power of the top warriors.
You know, this Long Wei is not targeting him at all, he is just too close,
It was just a disaster, but even the slightest residual power was too much for the gold-level Nok to resist.
On the contrary, Rusty, who was protected by him on his chest, seemed not to feel the pressure.
Looking curiously at Joseph who was knocked away.
At this time, Joseph was lying on the ground under the pressure of the huge dragon, covered with dust.
He almost became a native.
Although I am used to Fiona-sama’s recent behavior of beating herself up at every turn,
But this time Joseph felt ashamed.
Because in front of his son and granddaughter, he was suppressed on the ground and had no ability to fight back.
Even if the one who beat him was an ancestor, he still felt ashamed!
Knock actually wanted to leave and didn't want to see Joseph embarrassed.
But the key is that he can't move!
Although the dragon's power almost always affects Joseph,
But he was too close and couldn't escape Fiona's dragon power.
Plus Rusty doesn’t seem to feel the dragon’s power at all.
Nock knew that when Granny Fiona was beating Joseph, she was also beating him.
Maybe he is afraid that like Joseph, he will become a timid and hesitant person!
Nok also knew that he had been relying on calculations in everything he did recently.
But what can he do.
In terms of status, he is just a regional bishop. Even if he is appreciated, it is only appreciated.
In terms of qualifications, he is a newly promoted bishop. If it were not for the rumors that he is appreciated by the Pope and the next Pope,
He is not even qualified to rank seniority.
In terms of strength, it is only gold level, and the Holy City has not only 1,000 but also 800. This is the foundation.
It is estimated that even if the Holy Court does not take action, there will be ten or eight saint-level families in the Holy City.
His gold level strength is not even enough for cannon fodder.
He doesn't rely on calculations, what can he do.
But now Senior Fiona is angry, probably because she is dissatisfied with his performance recently.
But Nok didn't know. Although he guessed the reason wrong, he didn't worry that he guessed it right.
Fiona was indeed annoyed with Nok's recent behavior.
She had clearly told Nok that he would decide on the choice of Cardinal.
Knock could just choose someone and tell the Pope, and just let Pope Marcus make arrangements.
Nok can take advantage of this time to undergo the church's baptism ceremony and receive the inheritance of divine magic.
Or go to seminary for further studies to strengthen your interpersonal relationships.
Or go directly to the Inquisition and inherit the inheritance of the Holy Spear.
No matter which one you choose, it is better than wasting time on these conspiracies.
When you have absolute strength, any conspiracy will be self-defeating.
Just like the church, haven’t there been many conspiracies and conspiracies against the church over the years?
But why can the church still stand on the mainland and exist as the number one force?
Are the popes of all generations too good to see through the enemy's tricks?
No! It was she, Fiona, who shocked those hidden old people with her invincible appearance.
It was the popes of all generations who, with their invincible gestures, sprinkled the enemy's blood and corpses on the enemy's base camp!
Only then can the church have a standing history and future!
Invincibility is achieved by fists, never by words or brain calculations!
Fiona knows this better than anyone else!
If it weren't for the scoundrel She and the Holy Lord, who had strong fists, I really thought they were relying on calculations.
Can you force those gods to withdraw from the stage of history and sleep obediently?
The rules of the world are indeed not suitable for the activities of gods, but with the powers of gods,
Do they really have no way to move around in this world in other ways?
After all, it's not that their gods are afraid of being beaten, and they don't dare to fight against the human forces led by the Holy Lord!
Therefore, she was naturally angry when she observed Nok wasting time these days.
In addition, Joseph followed Nock, not only did he not remind him, but he also wrongly guided Nock to imitate him.
When a timid loser who follows "rules" in everything,
Fiona completely exploded.
Rules are imposed by the strong on the weak.
Only the weak need to abide by the rules set by the strong.
When do the strong need to abide by the rules set by the weak?
Joseph lived for decades and turned himself into a useless person.
It was hopeless, and Fiona didn't expect him to wake up.
Anyway, for some reason, she was happy to keep this loser by her side to take care of him.
It would also be nice to at least have someone who can flatter you and accompany you to eat, drink and have fun.
But now this old boy actually wants to teach the younger generation he likes a bad lesson.
How can that work!
