My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu
Chapter 353 Conversation in Hatfield Manor
The metal clone stood at the door of the room, holding a buckler and a war hammer in his hands, performing vigilant duties.
Crown said: "I will take care of these two seriously injured people, and you and Archbishop Ivan can search for survivors together.
Also, don't separate. We would rather search slower than reduce our staff any more. "
There are currently only four silver-level extraordinary beings left in the church, and they can no longer withstand many twists and turns.
Flanders nodded: "I understand."
He had been persuading him for a long time, but Croun still didn't change his mind, so he felt a little depressed.
The papal change was too sudden. The prestige of the cardinal archbishops is generally not high enough now, and it is not enough to be the pope to reverse the situation.
In addition, the Saxon family will not let go of this golden opportunity. If the king becomes the pope, life for them may not be easy.
"Ivan, let's go."
After Flanders left, Crown began to treat the wounded.
He used his spiritual vision to straighten the wounded man's broken bones and fixed them with splints. Then he took out a scalpel and cut away the corroded flesh and blood of the wounded man.
The evil beast actually had the ability to self-destruct, and the blood it sprayed was highly corrosive. The silver-level archbishops were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses, even paying the price with their lives.
Crown took out a bottle of water of life, used a secret method to completely activate the active factors in the water, then divided it into two parts and fed it to the wounded.
At this point, there is only the last bottle of water of life left in his collection.
The seals in his hands changed rapidly, releasing a healing wind. The wounds of the wounded continued to squirm, and new flesh and blood slowly grew.
The seriously wounded man drank the water of life and received treatment, and his originally pale and depressed expression immediately improved.
He understood that this only temporarily stabilized the injured person's condition, and further care was needed.
Healing Wind is a status skill that can last for five minutes. Once the time is up, he will release the skill again until the wounded person's face turns pale again. This is a sign that the wounded person's life source has been over-stimulated.
Crown stopped his movements. Now that the situation was critical, he could only cure them as quickly as possible.
The wounded were injured and their life source was over-stimulated, and they had long been unable to resist.
Now that the injury is recovering well, he is relaxed and soon falls asleep.
Crown listened to their steady breathing and breathed a sigh of relief. He sat up against the wall and summoned the golden wall.
[Healing Wind: 926/8000; Level 3]
Not bad! After only releasing the skill more than ten times, more than 400 proficiency points were added. It should be that the more serious the injury, the more proficiency will be increased after treatment. It also has a certain relationship with the strength of the injured person.
Thinking of this, Crown decided that after returning to Hamers, he must capture some more powerful monsters to practice the healing wind. The chicken he bought could no longer satisfy his desire for quick liver experience.
He closed the golden wall and began to meditate on the golden light spell. A cold moonlight light shone on his body, and the two wounded men subconsciously shrank their necks.
Firestone City, Hatfield Manor.
Before the waiter could open the carriage door, King Arthur Saxon jumped down from the carriage. He said to the steward who came up to him:
"Butler Ford, I want to see people from the family Senate and ask them to go to the meeting hall immediately."
The members of the Senate of the Saxon family are all Silver level extraordinary people.
After saying that, he hurried inside without waiting for the butler's reply.
Ford realized that something big must have happened, and he immediately sent his guards to inform the relevant people.
Arthur came to the meeting hall first. He sat on the chairman's seat and pressed his temples hard.
Although he had been trying to calm down, his rapid breathing showed that everything he was doing was in vain.
After a while, three members of the Senate came together.
Lexis had a cynical smile on her face:
"My good brother, why is it so urgent? I just returned to the manor the day before yesterday and I haven't even had time to enjoy my vacation."
He has dazzling blond hair, and the strands of hair are as if cast from gold. Paired with his fair and handsome appearance, he is absolutely graceful.
The senators sat down at Arthur's hands and waited for the king to speak.
Arthur stopped what he was doing, looked at each person's face for a few seconds, and said in a hoarse voice:
"We just received a tip that there is unrest in the city of Bly. St. Peter's Cathedral is suspected to be attacked by evil creatures. The situation in the Holy See is now suspected to be very unstable.
The secret report was sent three days ago. I don’t know if the unrest has been suppressed now. "
Prince Lexis raised his eyebrows: "Is there a more detailed report on the current situation in St. Peter's Cathedral?"
Arthur shook his head and sighed:
"Osman has been operating in the church for more than a hundred years, and we who bribed the senior members of the church have been slowly marginalized by him. Now the remaining spies are all minor players and cannot pass back more accurate information."
The Saxon family spared no effort to install their own people in important positions in St. Peter's Basilica, but the Pope used various reasons to shirk them. The people they bribed were also transferred to non-core positions by the Pope. Their intelligence personnel have never been able to do so. Enter the seat of power of the church.
Prince Lerol tapped his fingers on the table and asked uncertainly:
"Aren't those cardinal archbishops holding a meeting at this time? How come there is no news from the archbishop in the area controlled by our royal family?"
In the three provinces controlled by the royal family, if the red archbishop does not accept bribes from the royal family, he will inevitably encounter various difficulties and be unable to carry out his work.
“At the beginning, there was no cardinal meeting, and Osman just summoned the silver-ranked extraordinary people to hold a cardinal meeting.
The cardinal archbishop we bribed is not qualified to participate in this meeting.
According to the confirmation, these three archbishops may have returned to the embrace of the gods. "
Arthur paused, and his voice suddenly became passionate:
“I think this is a good opportunity. No matter what happens in Bly City now, the power of the Holy See will definitely be greatly weakened.
This is the best time for us to fight to regain the throne of the Pope. We can completely use this incident to exert pressure on public opinion and force Osman to abdicate early.
If he abdicates, the remaining cardinal archbishops will not have enough prestige to be nominated by the pope. If we lobby some archbishops, we may get the long-lost papacy. "
Prince Thain shook his head: "Your Majesty, I disagree. Doing so is tantamount to completely breaking up with Osman, and is not good for the stability of the situation.
After all, Osman didn't have long to live. Who knew whether the dying man would become crazy after being provoked.
Besides, our current preparations are not sufficient.
In addition, a large number of fishmen were found in the Valley Province, where the Taine River leads directly to the Kingdom of the Hinterlands.
This proves that the situation in the Kingdom of the Hinterlands is already very serious, and it is completely unable to stop the attack of the Evil God's Familiar troops. If the fishmen continue to move upstream along the Taine River, the situation we face will become increasingly difficult. "
"I agree with Arthur. This is a good opportunity to regain the glory of our ancestors," Lexis retorted. "We can assemble our troops while paying close attention to the situation in Bly City. If the timing is difficult, it is worth taking some risks. ”
"But what about the River Valley province? The three provinces we control all have part of the Taine River. If the fishmen are overrun, how can we resist it?"
Lexis shrugged, spread her hands and said:
"If we achieve great things, some losses are inevitable. If we take back the throne of the Pope, the entire twelve provinces of Faruk Kingdom will return to the control of the royal family. Three provinces will be exchanged for twelve provinces. Very good deal.”
"Well," Arthur nodded with satisfaction, "I agree with Lexis's point of view, it is necessary to make small sacrifices to gain big benefits.
Just do what he wants. On the one hand, we must gather troops, and on the other hand, we should pay attention to the development of the situation. If there is an opportunity, we will go to the Holy See to help the "friendly forces". If they can control the situation, we will have nothing to lose. "
Thain said: "If Osman is still alive, I do not agree to dispatch the troops. The church currently has fifth-level extraordinary beings who are too powerful."
Lexis smiled in a frivolous tone: "Uncle, have you lost your courage because of Osman's pressure? The fifth-level transcendent is indeed powerful, but we can avoid a head-on conflict with him."
"Huh," Thain sneered and didn't answer.
Arthur made the final decision: "I will consider Uncle Thain's suggestion, but the current situation cannot be delayed any longer. Let's assemble the troops first and re-send better intelligence personnel to the Holy See to collect the latest intelligence."
Lexis stood up and said: "Your Majesty, otherwise let me go to the Holy See. On the one hand, I am strong enough, so the red archbishops will not dare to neglect me too much. In this way, it will be easier to collect intelligence."
Arthur thought for a moment and said:
"Okay, but you can't conflict with people in the church. Be tolerant in everything."
"Understood, I'm not a three-year-old child, how can I not understand this truth."
Gray fog crawled over the city of Bly, wrapping the city tightly.
The magic circle of St. Peter's Basilica was damaged, and the sacred fire in the bell tower could no longer be lit. Only the small churches could still light the sacred flame.
In the church, Flanders described the current situation: "There are no survivors in the cathedral. We found some priests and Crusaders in the distant blocks, the highest ones are only second level.
In addition, the secret passage inside the prayer hall has been cleared, and the exit is in the wasteland outside the city. Traces of Osman disappeared by the river, and we cannot know his current location. "
Crown frowned. He released time regression at the location where Osman last appeared, and found that the opponent turned transparent and merged into the water before disappearing. The water flow took away all the smell, and he lost the chance to locate the enemy.
"What's the next step?" Ivan asked.
The situation is currently very bad, and he feels very uneasy now. The Pope has betrayed him, his comrades have died tragically, and the church has reached a very dangerous juncture.
If it cannot survive peacefully, the Farouk Kingdom will inevitably fall into strife.
Friend said: "We must re-elect a pope."
"Your Excellency, Mr. Crown, will not take the position?" Ivan was surprised. The wounded Leo Duma and Drago also had the same expression. In their hearts, the position of the Pope must be held by the strongest person at present.
Crown waved his hand:
"Don't mention this matter again. If I am determined to become the Pope, I will definitely not shirk it."
With his growth rate, when the kingdom of gods comes, he will most likely advance to Stigma Gold. There is no point in being the Pope, but it will not give him enough time to gain experience.
Flanders said: "Crown has no intention of being the Pope, so people from the Saxon family will definitely compete for this position.
Facing the royal family, we don't have much advantage. "
Leo's voice was low: "What I'm worried about is that if a member of the royal family becomes the pope, they will take revenge on us and let us guard the parish where the situation is unstable."
Drago shook his head slightly and said:
“I don’t think so, even if the Saxon family becomes the Pope, as long as we support them, they will be reused.
The threat of the evil god is getting closer and closer, and several dioceses such as the Rhine City Diocese have faced the threat of the evil god's dependents.
If the royal family were to cause internal strife now, it would be an act of sheer stupidity. "
Crown said: "It makes sense. The greater the pressure from the outside, the easier it is to unite internally. The huge Faruk Kingdom must be unified to have more confidence to face the evil god.
The royal family also wants to make their family's rule last longer and not dig their own graves. If they really do it, I won't give in! "
"Well said," Flanders smiled. He had completely given up on Crown becoming the Pope.
After he had nothing to worry about, his thinking became a bit more agile:
“The top priority right now is to clean up St. Peter’s Basilica, which is now full of blood. If believers see it, it will inevitably greatly affect the image of the church.
Do they think that we can't even protect the Holy Land and that we can't protect their safety? ! "
Crown asked: "How many congregants will know about Osman?"
The Ottoman mutiny had the greatest impact on the church and must not spread.
They can only announce to the outside world: 'St. Peter's Basilica was attacked by the followers of the evil god. His Majesty Pope Osman led the people to fight regardless of life and death, sacrificed his life for the church, and died on the front line of killing the enemy. ’
Thinking of this, he felt a little sick.
After a brief silence, Flanders said sadly: "I don't think any church members will know, because those who are qualified to know are all dead.
The reason why those weird evil beasts grow so fast is because a large number of extraordinary-level believers have had their life origins extracted. "
He studied the magic circle in the prayer hall for a while, and after discovering that Osman actually mastered such a vicious magic circle, he restored the general cause and effect of the whole incident in his mind.
The magic circle can actually extract the life source of living things and then feed it to himself or other living beings. He understood why Osman could break through the fifth level.
Based on this, he began to speculate. He felt that the inexplicable disappearance of high-ranking nobles in Bly City was probably related to Osman.
First, seduce the target with something irresistible, and then kill it after it grows to a certain level. If you raise cattle and sheep, when the cattle and sheep become fat and strong, it will be their doom.
Kroun looked slightly cold, exhaled a long breath, and said:
"If I meet Osman again, I will make him pay for what he has done."
With his growth rate, when he meets the enemy again, he will definitely surpass him by a lot.
He can raise the level of two spirit masters to the fifth level, in which case the combat effectiveness will be greatly improved intuitively.
Flanders nodded, he could hear the determination and murderous intent in Crown's words.
He smiled happily and said:
"We can divide into two groups tomorrow, one group will be responsible for cleaning the church, and the other group will be responsible for finding more survivors and comforting the people."
