Chapter 650 – Chapter 649: Gift -Lfirstiupdatedate ]
“Riley, there is something I need you to do.”
Dudian called Riley to accompany Barton to practice swordsmanship, “Help me pick up a person from the military. His name is ‘Joseph’. His military rank shouldn’t be high. Find Hawkeye Elder from the 9th region and ask him to give it to you. In addition, ask him to send people to assist you in this matter. Make sure that this person is safely sent out.”
Riley was silent as he bowed his head: “Yes.”
“Don’t pick up the wrong person.”Dudian looked at him as he handed Hawkeye a secret letter: “Pass this to Hawkeye.”
“Yes.”Riley bowed his head.
“This Is Your Holy Knight’s badge. There is no need to sneak in and out of the Holy Church.”Dudian threw a blue badge to him, “I know what your wish is. I will let you fulfill your wish after you complete this task.”
Riley’s body slightly trembled as he bowed: “Yes!”
Dudian stood up and went to the gate of the temple. He saw Barton practicing his sword in the square. Barton stopped as he heard the call. He put away his wooden sword and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He trotted over the steps and asked: “Master, are you looking for me?”
“I haven’t given you any gifts.”Dudian took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead: “I have something for you. Come with me.”
Barton was moved as he saw Dudian carefully wipe the sweat from his forehead. Although he felt that Dudian was very different from before but there was no difference in his treatment.
“Master, you have given me the position of Pope. I Can’t take your things anymore.”Barton quickly said.
Dudian handed the handkerchief to him and turned: “Let’s take a look.”
Barton took the handkerchief and slightly clenched it. He followed Dudian into the hall.
Dudian came to the desk and opened the drawer. He took out a black wooden box, “This is a rare parasitic soul worm called ‘silencer’. I asked someone to find it for you. You are in a high position now so you will encounter hostility from all directions. You have to improve your strength. Are you willing to use it?”
Barton was stunned. He was no longer a small figure. He knew about the existence of magic marks as a trainee knight. The rare parasitic soul worm was basically the best magic marks! As for the stronger legendary parasitic soul worm, it only existed in the legends. No one had ever seen it. He didn’t expect that Dudian would prepare such a big gift for him!
“Yes, of course I’m Willing!”Barton was grateful but he thought of something: “Such a precious magic mark. Are you really going to give it to me? If I waste it…”
“You are my brother. Who else can I give it to?”Dudian patted Barton’s shoulder: “In the future I will defeat the inner wall. If I get the legendary parasitic soul worm then I will replace it for you.”
Barton’s eyes were slightly moist. He lowered his head so that Dudian wouldn’t see it. He didn’t want to appear pretentious. But his heart was moved beyond words. After a moment he took a deep breath, “I’m very satisfied to get this!”
Dudian handed the black box to Barton: “You can use the resources to upgrade the magic marks. The Holy See should have a lot of God’s blessings in reserve.”
Barton nodded and hugged the box tightly.
At the same time, there was a heated debate in the conference room of the military headquarters in the west of the commercial district.
“The Holy See is simply outrageous! They dare to publicly slander commander Bryson. has that new pope’s brain been kicked by a pig? !”
“The Holy See is preparing to declare war on us. HMPH, they actually found such a clumsy excuse!”
“Sir, we will defend you to the death!”
The generals were filled with righteous indignation. Among them, they were so hot-tempered that they even slammed the table loudly.
Bryson sat upright on the left side of the seats with a gloomy expression. He had not expected the Holy See to attack them after the new emperor had just been replaced. Shouldn’t they be focusing on dealing with the voices of the villains within the Holy See at this time, moreover, among the three commanders, he had been chosen. No matter what the outcome was this time, it was an irreparable loss to his personal reputation.
“Commander Bryson.”Beside him, Saint Lorenzo turned to look at him. His gaze was deep, as though he had seen into the depths of Bryson’s heart. However, Bryson also looked at him calmly. There was no fear in his gaze, and it was filled with righteousness. Saint Lorenzo slowly said, “We believe in you and will not collude with the dark cult. The Holy See has announced this news without discussing it with US beforehand. They should be prepared to take you by force.”
Bryson’s eyes flashed slightly and he said in a deep voice, “If I am guilty, I am willing to bear the responsibility alone!”
“No!”Someone from the general below immediately stood up and said loudly, “You are the commander-in-chief of our military region. How can you let the Holy See Judge You? Who are they? They act all mysterious all the time. I don’t Believe This!”
“That’s right!”Someone beside him immediately agreed. “The Holy See slandered you at will. It’s ridiculous! They want to judge you with just them? They are overestimating themselves!”
Saint Lorenzo nodded slightly, “That’s right. You represent our entire military region. We won’t let you bear the responsibility alone. No matter what evidence the Holy See has, we have to make them give a reasonable explanation. This is openly undermining the prestige of our military region!”
Bryson fell silent. He knew that his identity was too awkward at this time. Not speaking was the best language.
“If the Holy See wants to judge the commander-in-chief, they will have to ask if the sword in my hand will agree!”
“I don’t believe that the Holy See would dare to start a war with our military region with just that little bit of power!”
“This order was issued by the new pope. HMPH, he probably wants to step on commander Bryson’s shoulder and intimidate the others. Don’t even think about getting away with it!”
Seeing that the generals were agitated, Saint Lorenzo raised his hand and slightly suppressed his heated words, he said, “Immediately send someone to the Holy See to clarify things. Also, tell them that if they start a war with our military region, they won’t have a good ending.”
“Commander, I’m willing to go personally!”
“Commander, I’ll Go!”
Immediately, a few generals raised their hands and said.
Saint Lorenzo glanced at them and chose one of the female generals. He said, “Roland, you go. You’re meticulous. It’s best for you to say it. Remember, don’t be too tough, and don’t be weak either!”
“Yes!”The female general immediately stood up and accepted the order.
At the same time, Riley came to District 9 and handed the secret letter to Hawkeye. Hawkeye opened the secret letter and read it quickly. He was stunned.
Riley stared at him quietly.
Hawkeye noticed his gaze and smiled bitterly. “Fortunately, our Lord is not our enemy. I don’t know if the military district can accept this great gift from him!”
