Demon Royal Family

Outside Ivo's sight, the undercurrent of the Holy See surged silently. His identity was unprecedented in the Holy See. He was the first redeemer in history who did not join the Tribunal. No matter what the meaning of this "first" was, as long as If he is special in the eyes of the Pope, he has the value of winning over.

The successors of the Pope and the Patriarch are decided by high-level votes. When the campaign starts and ends, it all depends on the mood of the two current bosses. The most important thing is that the current Pope and Patriarch have one vote for the successor selected by the high-level. veto power.

To become a successor to a pope or patriarch, one has to undergo baptism and truth testing countless times more than the journey of salvation, and the handover of the scepter is extremely cautious and serious.

The senior church officials were not as prejudiced against Ivo as the middle-level priests. Especially at the time of the turmoil, they were wooing all the high-status priests. Ivo's special status in the eyes of the Pope jumped into their sight, and all high-level officials were watching. At that time, Delpasani was the first to show his kindness to Ivo. He was an opportunist and never let go of any possibility.

No one told Ivo all this. In the hearts of the priests, although Ivo joined the church, he was still an outsider.

…

Early the next morning, Ivo, wearing a priest's robe, arrived at the meeting point with the night watchmen. He saw a church carriage and more than twenty indifferent night watchmen, headed by a red-haired arbiter. , Brandt, the captain of this investigation mission, is well-known in the tribunal and is a cold and ruthless guy.

Augustus City is not close to the Holy Land. It takes half a month to reach the imperial capital along a pilgrim road. The horses of the Holy Court are all white, without a trace of color, just like pure elves, regardless of endurance or endurance. The speed is comparable to the top breeds of war horses.

Each night watchman rode a white horse with silver armor and an elite aura, staring at Ivo coldly.

Ivo's face was calm, not caring about the night watchman's threatening eyes.

Brandt glanced at him and said calmly: "Get in the carriage and set off."

The carriage was prepared for Ivo, who represented the Pope's deacon in dealing with the nobles of Augustus and was nominally the highest-ranking person in the team.

Ivo stepped into the carriage. The interior was covered with soft carpets and was very comfortable.

The team took action and set off silently. No vibration was felt inside the carriage. Ivo closed his eyes to rest and think about the mission of this trip.

Augustus City is the capital of the empire. The aristocratic believers are generous and generous, and it has always been the area that the Holy See attaches most importance to. The traces of the mortal enemy the Heretic Cooperation Association appeared in the royal capital. This is a dangerous signal. The Holy See sent people to investigate in advance.

Because she had to act together with the night watchmen, there were many people, so Luna did not follow closely. She kept everyone at a distance. With Ivo's consent, she left a trace of shamanic evil power to control Ivo's position to avoid following him. lost.

Ivo's thoughts drifted as far as the city of Auguste, and he smiled secretly: "The royal capital of the Odin Empire is just enough to collect the last two treasure maps of the Magellan family... Barlow and the others should also be in Auguste."

Outside the carriage, the night watchman rode forward in silence, glancing at the carriage from time to time, with a strange look on his face. Before setting off, Captain Brandt gave them a small "side mission" to kill on the way back. Ivo.

Brandt frowned, "Concentrate on your journey."

…

After traveling all day, it was dusk.

Brandt glanced at the sky and gestured, "Rest and camp on the spot."

The night watchman stopped, dismounted and spread out his tent.

Ivo got off the carriage and suggested: "It's still early and there's a hotel not far ahead. We might as well walk a little further."

However, Brandt simply ignored Ivo and walked past him, completely treating him like air.

Ivo frowned, Brandt's attitude made him feel unhappy, "I'm talking to you, Captain Brandt."

Brandt didn't hear anything.

At this time, a burly night watchman passed by carrying firewood and deliberately bumped into Ivo's back. He immediately noticed it and straightened his back. Instead, the burly night watchman was pushed back a step, and Ivo remained motionless.

Seeing that the teasing failed, the burly night watchman snorted and left.

The night watchmen all had an unfriendly attitude, and Ivo suppressed his anger. Since the night watchmen were so hostile to him, he stopped talking and returned to the carriage.

As night gradually fell, the night watchman served dinner, but no one informed Ivo, so he was excluded and no one said a word to him.

Ivo leaned against the carriage alone, gnawing on the dry food in his hand and looking at the warm bonfire of the night watchman.

He frowned slightly. He didn't care about being ostracized. In addition to the obvious hostility, he also felt a vague killing intent. His heart was awe-inspiring, and he secretly became wary of this group of night watchmen.

…

Barlow, Ander, and Hades stayed in Augustus City for a while, following Ivo's request to find the treasure map. Their target was the "collector" Viscount Andre Van, but there was no progress. .

Andre was a stubborn old aristocratic man who remained unmoved no matter what Barlow's request was.

Today, they encountered another disappointment. The three of them returned to the hotel where they stayed.

Hades returned to his room, only to find that there was another figure in the room. He stared hard and quickly drew out his dagger and stabbed it out.

Two purple fingers pinched the dagger, as if it was stuck in a gap in the steel and could not be pulled out. Hades made a quick decision, let go, jumped back, and was about to turn around and run out of the room.

At this time, the uninvited guest spoke, "Your blood is silver."

Hades' movement suddenly stopped.

This uninvited guest had long silver hair and purple skin. He was handsome in appearance, wearing an open-chested white trench coat, with a skull pendant hanging from his left ear. He looked at Hades with a half-smile.

"Who are you?" Hades said in a cold tone.

The silver-haired and purple-skinned man smiled softly, "I can't tell you my name for the time being. I think it's a coincidence that I met you."

"What's your purpose?"

"I also knew a guy with silver blood before," the silver-haired and purple-skinned man said playfully, "but he died a long time ago."

Hades was unsure of the other party's intentions and suddenly said: "You are not a race from the main world."

The silver-haired and purple-skinned man said indifferently: "You guessed it right."

Hades could feel the terrifying aura on the opponent's body. The blessings of the gods protected the main world. Logically speaking, such a powerful alien creature could not stay in the main world for a long time.

The silver-haired and purple-skinned man seemed to see through Hades' doubts and said calmly: "The blessings of the gods are fading. Soon, the once indestructible world barriers will be as fragile as eggshells, and the passage between the secondary space and the main world will , there will no longer be any restrictions.”

"At that time, we will meet again." The silver-haired and purple-skinned man suddenly smiled and disappeared.

Hades stood for a while and murmured: "Weird guy."
