Chapter 342 Premonition

Dim lights and the pungent smell of inferior oil.

A sudden burst of air caused the flames to sway violently.

Then a dark shadow walked by, and the place returned to its original state.

In front of the passage, a man in black robe pushed open the wooden door.

Squeak!

There are people waiting in the basement.

The visitor smiled slightly, an ugly smile appearing on his stiff cheeks.

"Why did the time advance?"

If there were people within the church, they would be able to recognize that the man in black robes belonged to the infamous Inquisition.

"The latest information shows that a technological breakthrough has been completed in the royal family territory, and they will soon be able to form a new army of 100,000 level."

The person who came spoke very quickly and quickly told the latest information.

The secrets of Hanson County are indeed difficult for outsiders to explore.

The royal bloodline coupled with strict control allows for almost 100% confidentiality.

But there is also faith... The power of faith can sometimes transcend everything, including blood.

The black-robed priest looked surprised: "The Bruno family's trash actually succeeded?"

Then he frowned: "But we're not ready yet."

The Inquisition is 100% supportive of His Majesty the Pope's plan.

They were also responsible for the secret training over the years.

The glory of the Lord has been stolen, and the power of human shepherding has to be shared with the royal family. In the eyes of these people, it is simply unreasonable.

Fortunately, the Pope was wise enough to deal with the blasphemers who colluded with outsiders and was ready to do something big.

But the preparation was not enough. The organizational structure of the church was determined and was often restricted by the nobility.

It is very difficult for them to secretly cultivate an army without being discovered.

That is to say, a large number of troops in the kingdom have been mobilized recently, so they have relaxed their hands, but the training of new recruits is not enough.

The envoy is of course aware of this, and the Inquisition's training progress in various locations is under control.

If it takes another three months, we can barely meet the requirements.

But time is not on his side now, especially as the king prepares to expand his army.

So, take the risk.

The Pope is indeed very courageous. He is not ready, and the royal family is not ready either.

As for risk...what can you do without risk?

If you succeed, you will be able to restore your former glory, and even go one step further and allow the Lord’s kingdom to come on earth.

If you fail, then you must resist your sins, and the church will still exist, waiting for the next opportunity.

The messengers knew the Pope's plan, and they were all fanatical believers.

So after silence, he replied: "The Pope already has a plan, and the new equipment has arrived. All you need to do is gather your manpower and wait for orders."

The pastor of the Inquisition looked at the messenger, and after three seconds he nodded in agreement: "Okay, it is the honor of the shepherd to sacrifice for the Lord."

Similar things happen frequently near the royal capital of the Holy Cross Kingdom.

But there are surprises.

Faith is the most powerful weapon in the hands of the Pope.

He was able to determine that all participants were fanatical followers of the Lord, which is why they have not been discovered so far.

However... everyone may have different understandings of the Lord.

David, the priest of the Inquisition, was a fanatic with a different understanding.

He has been dissatisfied with the church's actions over the years. Even though the Pope is showing different courage now, he has experienced the power of the Lord. How can he be convinced by the uncanny Pope again?

Yes, he was a member of the Protestant Church, but he was only temporarily lurking in the church.

He even met Derek in person and experienced the miracle.

It was precisely because of his personal experience that his faith in the Lord remained unwavering, and neither the Pope nor anyone in the church doubted him.

However, there is an essential difference between what David believed and what they believed.

After the messenger left, David immediately cleaned up his appearance and quietly left the door.

“Today the church is being stolen by a pack of hypocritical sheepdogs, and believers like me are being deceived.

When saints come to earth, they are the messengers who restore the glory of the Lord. "

David had a firm faith and had been close to the Lord personally. How could he be deceived?

After being careful all the way and even making sure there was no follower, David changed his clothes and knocked on the door of a private house.

The other party quickly opened the door and let David in.

"The latest news is that the church is taking action."

David couldn't wait to tell the news.

This is a stronghold of the Ninth Investigation Division, specially set up to contact David.

Because he did not expect the fanatics of the Inquisition to betray him, David had detailed information.

Besides, the Ninth Investigation Division has more than one insider, and they can verify each other when the time comes.

The news quickly progressed layer by layer and reached Derek's hands.

But at this time, the Pope had already launched a plan.

Of course, the faster this kind of secret operation, the better.

The reason why the church has been feared by kings in the past is because its potential power is too huge.

If it is not curbed, even the royal power cannot be guaranteed.

Therefore, it is reasonable for the Pope to control some officials in the royal capital.

Those who can hold important positions cannot be fanatics. The king is not that stupid.

But people come up with the solution.

Taking advantage of the darkness, church soldiers secretly trained in nearby territories and cities marched quickly.

The weapons were temporarily issued and there was no large-scale joint training with each other. This army looked like a ragtag group.

However, with the bonus of faith, the army can still be maintained.

At the north gate of the capital, the officer guarding the gate had just received a report that a distinguished bishop was about to arrive.

As a believer, even if his faith was not very strong, Parker did not dare to neglect a bishop.

In the Kingdom of the Holy Cross, the clergy of the church had a high reputation. Once those believers knew that he had disrespectful behavior, it would be a big trouble. His superiors might also change his position for similar reasons.

So Parker quickly came to the city gate to meet the bishop.

The other party also got off the carriage, and he was an acquaintance.

As a believer, Parker went to the church to pray. With his identity, he certainly knew Bishop Kazim.

"Bishop Kazim, where do you want to go so late?"

"Parker? Are you here? That's great. A devout believer is about to meet the Lord. He asked me to pray for him for the last time. I don't mind you, right?"

It is definitely against the rules to leave the city so late.

As for how the other party entered the city, it must have been done by his colleagues.

A hanging basket can sometimes solve the problem.

Of course, the honorable bishop could not take the basket out of the city, unless Parker wanted to hang himself on the city gate the next day.

He hesitated for only a second, which was a respect for the laws of the kingdom.

The next second, he took the initiative to say: "Of course no problem, I will open the door for you right away."

Parker turned around and ordered: "Open the door quickly."

The soldiers were not surprised. It was normal for those big men to break the rules occasionally.
