Holy Court, Papal Palace.
"What! The expeditionary army stopped halfway? Who gave them the order!"
Poros banged the table and got angry at the subordinate who reported the news.
The messenger was horrified: "Your Majesty, please calm down. It's not that the army doesn't want to move forward, but the latest news came from the capital of France. The lord of Burgundy in the Kingdom of France and his 50,000-strong army were annihilated by Nok Lane alone." .
It is said that Bishop Lane used the [Holy Spear], and with just two blows, the 50,000-strong army was wiped out, and the place where the army stayed turned into a lake.
Captain Rolles also wanted to wait for the latest instructions from the Holy Court just to be on the safe side. "
Boros understood his subordinate's explanation.
The subtext is that Nok Lane's sacred weapon is extremely powerful. Rolles' legion does not want to be cannon fodder and hopes that the Holy Court will send experts to deal with Nok Lane.
To put it bluntly, the other party is waiting for him to send reinforcements!
It’s not like there are no holy weapons in the Holy Court.
On the contrary, the Holy Court's treasury is filled with holy vessels.
But in addition to the Pope having a papal suit and the Holy Grail that is enshrined in the holy pool of the temple all year round.
Only a few powerful figures at the level of legion commanders have the right to use a sacred weapon.
The right to use the remaining sacred artifacts must be applied to the Presbyterian Council in advance according to the needs of the mission. After the Presbyterian Council votes and passes, the treasure trove administrator will be notified to take out the required sacred artifacts and open the use rights to the missionaries.
Therefore, if you want a sacred weapon owner like Fang Nok, you must send someone who is also a sacred weapon owner.
Even a user of the sacred weapon who receives a temporary mission will not be a match for Nok Lane.
Judging from the abilities displayed by Nok Lane, his control over the [Holy Spear] is no less than that of the [Holy Spear Users] in the past.
Sending ordinary masters may not be able to win Nok Lane.
Pope Poros immediately called a meeting of the Presbyterian Council.
After a fierce debate, the Presbyterian Church finally agreed to send the "Silver Wings" Knights, together with the leader of the Holy Knights, three presiding judges of the Inquisition, and twenty priests of the Inquisition, on the "Silver Wings" flying dragon. Go straight to Paris.
At the same time, the crusade army stopped halfway also received the order from the Holy Court and continued to advance.
The "Silver Wings" were dispatched mainly to deal with the wolf cavalry under Nok Lane and to deter other malicious forces.
For example, people from the Dark Empire and the Witch Union.
Rexxar, the leader of the Dragon Knights, is a veteran saint-level powerhouse. He holds the holy weapon [Holy Sword of Light] and wears the holy weapon armor [War God's Protection]. He is the main combat force against Nok Lane.
Rexxar, who possesses two holy weapons, is not only rich in combat experience, but also an unparalleled offensive and defensive [Sacred Artifact User]. Even if he cannot take down Nok Lane, he can still effectively contain him.
The purpose of the Inquisition was to arrest Nocque Lane's henchmen and conduct a public trial afterwards to calm the impact of Cardinal Richelieu's murder.
Originally, the Holy Court planned to declare the Reims Cathedral group headed by Nok Lane as traitors to the church, but considering that doing so, it would be easy to push the Reims Cathedral group directly to the enemy.
Maybe before the church army crusades, Nok Lane will lead his men to defect to the enemy forces.
Not to mention the distance, the Lion Heart Kingdom across the sea is his best choice.
Others don't know it, but Boros and Marcus know that Nook Ryan is the first heir to the throne of the Lionheart Kingdom!
Now that the Lionheart Kingdom has achieved the status of maritime hegemony, it is gradually trying to become the continental hegemon with great ambitions.
If the Holy Empire hadn't been in internal trouble now, it would have sent troops to attack the ambitious Lion Heart Kingdom.
In order to prevent Nok Lane from running away, Boros suppressed the proclamation proposed by the Presbyterian Council to excommunicate Nok Lane, so as not to alert the snake and allow Nok Lane to run away in advance.
Stabilizing Nok Lane and catching the opponent off guard, this is what Boros wants.
However, this time the operation of the Holy Court was conducted privately by Boros and the Presbyterian Council, and Marcus had no idea about it.
Marcus was complaining to Fiona at the Holy Mountain.
When Turonev brought the news, Rezas had already been setting off with his troops for several hours.
Marcus did not object to Boros's action, but he felt that Boros and the Presbyterian Church were not cautious enough and underestimated Nok Lane.
With the lineup sent by the Holy Court, Marcus could easily escape and even kill most of the people.
Not to mention the strong return of Knock.
Marcus himself was not sure about dealing with Nok. This was noticed when he met Nok.
He just wasn't sure, so he compromised with Nok and left Lance City.
Unfortunately, when I came back to complain to Fiona, I encountered Fiona still sleeping in the dragon's sleep.
The dragon's sleep began in the second year after Nok's disappearance. The dragon's sleep lasted for decades or hundreds of years.
Fiona has never had a real dragon sleep because she has to protect the church.
However, the dragon sleep in light sleep will still proceed.
Sleep duration generally ranges from more than ten years to several decades.
During light sleep, you can be awakened by the outside world.
But all the popes of the Holy Court knew that disturbing Fiona's sleep would have serious consequences.
Usually unless a serious incident occurs, they will not disturb Fiona's dragon sleep.
After all, everyone is angry when they wake up, let alone a giant dragon.
Marcus just came to complain and had no intention of waking Fiona up.
Fiona in a light sleep state can receive external information. As long as it is not something that requires her to deal with immediately, she does not need to wake up immediately.
Marcus complained just to make Fiona hate Nok, thus lowering Nok's rating in Fiona's mind.
When he actually attacks Nok in the future, it will be fine if Fiona doesn't protect Nok.
But Marcus forgot that Nok's father was still working as a bather for Fiona.
As a result, Marcus, who complained, was angrily criticized by Joseph and then pestered.
In her sleep, Fiona found the two old men annoying and swatted them out of the dragon cave like flies.
Therefore, when Turonev arrived with the news, he saw two old men fighting on the Holy Mountain.
The guards of the Holy Mountain are still secretly betting on who will lose and who will win.
When he learned from Slaughter Nev that Boros sent people to capture Nok, Marcus felt that Boros was careless.
But the army has already set off for half a day. With the speed of the dragon riders, it is estimated that they will reach the Kingdom of France in the evening and Paris in the morning.
It was too late for him to send reinforcements.
Unlike Marcus who resigned himself to fate, Joseph's lungs exploded with anger when he heard that the Pope was actually going to deal with his own son.
If Turonev hadn't stopped him, he would have gone to fight with Poros.
Fortunately, Turonev persuaded Joseph and said that Fiona was the only one who could help Nok now.
Although Boros is a junior in the Holy Court, his current status is the Pope. On the surface, except for Fiona and the old tree spirit in the nursing home, he has the highest status of the Pope. The next one is the newly canonized saint, and the next one is the Pope. They are the powerful elders of the Presbyterian Church.
Except for Fiona, no one can really question Boros' decision.
This time Joseph was anxious and wanted to wake Fiona up, but was stopped by Marcus.
The two switched offense and defense, and it was Marcus who blocked Joseph from approaching Fiona.
The reason is quite legitimate: the Holy Dragon has entered its sleep, and no one else can disturb the Holy Dragon. In order to avoid damaging the quality of the Holy Dragon's sleep, the Holy Dragon will not be able to protect the Holy Court properly in the next period of time.
As soon as the big hat was changed, Turonev didn't dare to help, so he turned around and ran away.
Anyway, the news has arrived. If Joseph cannot report the news to the Holy Dragon, he can't be blamed.
He is only the chief arbitrator and cannot interfere in the fights between retired bosses.
As for Nock Lane, he can only hope for his own good.
The Pope has orders, and he, as the arbiter, must obey them.
Sending only three presiding judges and twenty priests was the greatest help Turlonev could do for Nok.
Joseph was entangled, and no one stood in the way of the Holy Court procession.
Rexxar and the others marched straight in and arrived at the Kingdom of France before nightfall.
After casually finding a place to settle down, Rexxar summoned all the dragon knights and discussed the plans and arrangements for tomorrow with them in a low voice.
Except for Sost William, who was killed by Nok, the remaining eight dragon knights are here.
Including Rexxar, a total of nine saints and eight golden peak flying dragons, they feel that they are more than capable of dealing with a Nok Ryan.
If it weren't for the fact that there might be sneak attacks by people from other forces during the battle with Nok, Rexxar felt that with the current team, he could swagger into Paris as if there was no one around!
But he couldn't do this. The matter of dealing with Nook Lane couldn't be leaked before the dust settled.
What if Nok Lane invites other saint-level helpers...
Rexxar didn't know that the moment they entered Farland, their whereabouts were exposed.
While they were setting up camp to rest, a piece of information about them had been sent to Notre Dame de Paris overnight and appeared on Nok Lane's desk.
Of course, besides the letter, there is also a naked woman on Nook Lane's desk.
"Ah, Nok, there is new news sent from the south, it should be news about the Holy Court."
The woman lying on the table gasped for air and looked back at Nok who was plowing.
Nok ignored it, his eyes turned red and he growled: "Don't worry about it, there will be plenty of time to deal with it later!"
With Nok's words, the two started fighting again, going back and forth and meeting their opponents.
Two hours later, Mrs. Mantilati, who was numb all over, leaned on Nok's chest, opened the secret letter and read it.
"Noak, the latest news is that the Holy Court has sent a team to behead you. The leader of the team is Rexxar, the leader of the Dragon Knights. He is known as the [Unparalleled Knight] and possesses the [Bright Holy Sword] and the [Bright Holy Sword]. [Guardian of the God of War] two sacred instruments. Accompanying them are all the members of the 'Silver Wings', as well as the three presiding judges and twenty priests of the Inquisition."
Mantilati asked worriedly: "Are you sure? If not, you can hide with me first!"
Nok shook his head: "No need, I still have three saints here. Even if I'm not defeated, I still have a chance to escape. But it's time for you to leave. Otherwise, if your identity is exposed, I'll have to deal with you too." You took action."
Nok's words made Mrs. Mantilati turn pale.
With fear in her eyes, she broke away from Nok's arms with a "wave" and stood up, standing naked opposite Nok.
