Chapter 536

The holy mountain of kalenrill.

Apart from the sighing mountains, it is the highest altitude area in the western continent. Surrounded by mountains, the snow covered peaks look down on the earth like a sword standing on the ground.

On the steep cliffs, ropes and stairs circle along the rocks. A pilgrim from all over the world ascends the stairs just to look at the remaining statues of angels on the top of the mountain, the miracles left in the world after the chaotic disaster.

Among these people in different clothes, a man with grey hair and windbreaker was also among them, which was insignificant.

The peaks around the holy mountain are the headquarters of the church's major institutions.

Among them, there are Lanye palace, which specializes in teaching young children, Shuiping palace, which specializes in healing, Shanxiang palace, which is good at building, and Shijian palace, which is responsible for soothing souls and resting in peace.

Today, one of the three major knights, the chief of the order of the holy gun, Otis, is also in a precipitous fortress in the mountain.

He was wearing thick silver armor with gold veins. He was nearly two meters tall. Behind him was a big red cape. The Velvet Cape made his whole body and armor heavy, making him as firm and steady as a mountain.

He stood on a lookout tower and looked down at the Knights training and shouting in the valley below. There was no expression in his face.

There was a knock on the door in the room behind.

"In."

When the door opened, a knight with silver armour came in. He was blonde and handsome. He should be about 30 years old.

"Lord Otis, I'd like to report something recently."

"Go ahead." He turned around and sat down behind his desk with the sound of armor crashing.

"At present, among the members of the Knights' order in various branches, some members need to ask for leave to go home for a period of time, about a month."

"This kind of thing always happens. It's human nature." Otis made a brief comment, but he knew that this clever young man must have more to say.

"Yes, but this year's ratio is much higher than that of last year. If last year's ratio was 2%, then this year's ratio is 4%

"But now there is no war, there is no special situation, it is not normal."

"Then, most of these people were sent to the local diocese headquarters in the form of letters. Although they are busy at ordinary times, I specially found some of them and compared them with the previous letters, and found that the handwriting is not the same person."

"That is to say, these people's letters were written by others, and they may have had an accident?"

"Yes, according to the normal process, knights from towns and small towns report to the local parish headquarters every other month. During this period, they will convey some recent orders and instructions. At the same time, strengthen ties to ensure the loyalty of the members of the order. "

"But if you ask for leave in this way, you can report to the diocese headquarters three times at most, that is, within three months, then the whereabouts of these people will become a mystery."

"Interesting." The chief knocked his fingers on the table, thought for a few seconds, and then continued to ask.

"Have you asked about other palaces and knights?"

"I didn't ask directly, but took advantage of the official business to inquire. The situation in other palaces is similar to that in previous years, while the situation in the knight order is a little similar."

"In addition to the order of the shotgun, the order of the song of the dead and the order of the blue Nautilus, which belong to the church, have similar situations, but they don't fluctuate as much as we do."

"It's estimated that you are so careful to find the subtle data difference." Otis sighed.

"That's for our Knights' order. To do this, it's usually the internal staff of the church. Otherwise, the other twelve palaces should have similar scenes."

"Yes, you see..." the young knight asked in a low voice.

Otis did not immediately answer, slowly analyzing the current situation.

Today, the church is discussing the candidates for the next Pope. Since the death of the former Pope, the archbishops of various dioceses have rushed back to vote in a few days.

If you want to be a pope, you must be one of the archbishops of the region, or the leader of the twelve palaces and the three knights.

At present, there are about 70 people who meet this requirement. Except for some people with shallow qualifications and obvious lack of strength, there are 15 suitable candidates. Among these 15 people, only four are really hopeful of reaching the threshold and making everyone more convinced.

One is himself. As the head of the order of the lance and one of the cardinals of the red robe, he not only served as a war minister, but also served as a pastor before. He led the party, and his resume and strength were very stable. At present, it is also the peak of Angel Series 8 and only one step away from series 9.

In addition, the scepter priest of ten swords palace, Archbishop of sibes, is also popular. He once served in the lamye palace for 10 years and was the Archbishop of the Diocese of dominia. Now the Archbishop of the diocese is also his student. In addition, the leaders of Sabbath palace and holy flame Palace also made friends with them and were their firm allies.

And then there is the scepter priest of Aquarius, bines. She once worked in ermenas, and also served as the Archbishop of a parish. The order of the blue Nautilus, the mountain elephant palace, and the holy song palace all had good contacts with them. In addition, the students who had worked in ermenas also had many high-level supporters within the church.

Finally, the scepter priest in orbit, sharander. Although he is over 150 years old, he still looks like 30 years old. It is said that he was blessed by angels when he was young. Although he seldom involves in foreign affairs, he has strong strength. With the support of some old people, if he becomes Pope, few people will oppose him.

Among the four, he and sibes are the peak of series 8, while bines just entered series 9 five years ago, while sharante, who is said to have existed in series 9 a hundred years ago, participated in the "battle of breaking the bow" between Xuehua seven countries and verdant empire.

Although there are only the scepter priests of the silver blood palace with their allies, as the largest fighting legion of the church, the order of the holy spear has more soldiers than the other two combined, and its momentum is higher.

Otis was silent for a long time. He said, "we need to allocate 300 Cavalier units from the headquarters, and go to various places to exchange defenses. Externally, we need to train and rectify the gradually abandoned military discipline."

After arriving at the local area, these units directly went to the towns and cities with problems according to the list, and then investigated and searched for the missing members by force.

"It's so powerful that it's hard to hide it from others."

"What if I can't hide it? Since they are furtive, there must be some intrigue. We will directly disturb their rhythm and turn their plot in the dark into a fight in the face. "

"And directly fight with the enemy, we have not been afraid of any of them."

"I see, my Lord." The blonde Knight bowed his head, and then walked out of the room with the signed document. Along the way, he called a messenger knight on duty, who would quickly send the order to all directions.
