This Paladin is so despicable!
Chapter 58: Casting stones to ask for directions (third update)
In the office of the president of the Holy Capital Commercial Street Federation, Wright and Cardinal Delman sat quietly there, tasting the black tea served by President Grandet himself.
"Good tea! If I hadn't come with you as the host, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to drink such top-notch black tea as the archbishop."
"I personally prefer drinking green tea and black tea. In our hometown, green tea is refreshing and black tea is healthy."
Wright put down the tea cup and raised his eyebrows: "So, if you insist on coming here, it's not just for tea, right?"
The archbishop laughed dryly: "Are you really planning to kick Vanessa out as soon as possible?"
"How is that possible?"
Wright rubbed his fingers: "I still want to keep her so I can find out the mastermind behind this."
The cardinal archbishop also put down the tea cup: "You really said that on purpose..."
Wright smiled slightly: "When we left, except for the members of the Temple Council, everyone else followed behind.
With so many people, it’s hard to guarantee whether they have the other party’s ears and eyes. "
"Then you asked Taylor to inform Adros...it's also for fishing, right?"
“It’s not so much fishing, it’s more like casting stones to find the way.”
Wright sat upright and tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table.
“Although the First Empire is powerful, I have never heard of them having any involvement with the Dragon Clan.
Moreover, among all the Holy Kingdoms, the First Empire was notoriously thorny and had the worst relationship with the church.
Under such circumstances, how could the Holy Dragon of Light, whose status is second only to the Goddess of Holy Light in the worship system of the Holy Light Church, appear in their place and sign a contract with Vanessa?
Therefore, there must be other forces behind her that provided her with this holy dragon of light and helped her successfully complete the contract.
But as for who this force is, it depends on the results of this question. "
The red archbishop nodded repeatedly: "Do you have anyone to suspect?"
"...the remnants of truth."
"I thought the same thing as you."
The red archbishop tapped his fingers lightly on the table: "In the past two years, the First Empire has developed rapidly and recruited a large number of magicians and alchemists.
Although there is no definite information to prove that these people are related to the remnants of the Tower of Truth.
But the relationship between the First Empire and the Holy See has been deteriorating year by year, which makes people doubt this...
Did you know that during the battle to annihilate the Tower of Truth, the reason why the Dragon Clan was willing to hand over those crucial dragon language magic scrolls was because the Tower of Truth extended its hand to the Dragon Clan's ancestral land.
Dragon's Crypt.
According to my analysis, the Tower of Truth may have touched the taboos of the Dragon Clan at that time! "
Wright nodded slightly: "This is the first time I have heard of this. It seems that the Archbishop can still provide some useful information."
The archbishop was very depressed, so he had to drink tea to calm down his anger.
Wright refilled the Archbishop's tea: "It's just a joke, don't mind.
In fact, I was still thinking two days ago that the movement of the remnant party of truth was so small this time, and they only sent a few minions to disrupt the situation.
Now it seems that it is very likely that this stupid princess and her stupid dragon are the real big move.
Currently, due to some reasons, her Knights of the Holy Rose are temporarily unable to follow.
Then, if she wants to bring me down by investigating Adros, she has only two ways.
Either integrate the power of the Temple Council, or continue to rely on the power of the black hand behind her.
As long as I limit the power of the Temple Council, I can force her to contact the mastermind behind this. "
The red archbishop carefully observed Wright: "Then what if she is really a remnant of truth behind her... What are you going to do?"
Wright's eyes flashed sharply: "If it is just to allow the Holy Advent Ceremony to be held smoothly, it is very simple, just kill the guy who gets in the way.
If you can't do it, I'll do it.
I have plenty of means to keep people alive but only alive.
I'm not afraid of Dragon Island or the First Empire.
But now, my main purpose is only one, and that is to undo the witch curse on Joanna.
To do this, I need to force out the mastermind behind this. Dig out all the clues related to the witch from the other party's mind.
They never took action, and it was actually me who was troubled.
Now that I've taken action, it's not too late for me to be happy!
So, you don’t have to worry about what I will do to Vanessa, at least not in the short term. "
The cardinal archbishop smiled awkwardly: "If possible, I also hope that you can ensure that the Holy Advent ceremony goes on as normal as possible."
"Boss! I heard about it! I heard about it!"
Grandet ran in panting, holding a handkerchief and wiping the sweat on his forehead.
"Boss, I heard about it! Our councilors in the temple sent a message back. Her Royal Highness Vanessa has completed the emergency meeting and took office as the vice president.
Because the position of president was vacant, she was promoted to acting president.
Exactly the same as you guessed.
Your Highness, your wisdom is really..."
"stop!"
Wright saw that he was acting up and stopped him quickly: "Say it's useful."
"Oh oh oh!"
Grandet took a deep breath, calmed down, and then told all the information.
“After taking office, Her Royal Highness Vanessa delivered an inaugural speech, stating that she would restore the glory of the temple and regain the rights that everyone deserves.
At the same time, she also made it clear that she said...said..."
The red archbishop was a little anxious: "That's what you said!"
Grandet looked at Wright with an expression of embarrassment: "Her words are a bit offensive to the boss, I dare not..."
Wright waved his hand: "What she said is not what you said, but it doesn't matter!"
"Yes! Boss, Her Royal Highness Vanessa publicly stated in her inauguration speech that Wright is not invincible!
She's found a way to beat you for sure! And save the Holy City from your bullying rule! "
After hearing this, Wright and Delman looked at each other, and the Archbishop said decisively.
"You don't have to cast stones to ask for directions, now you can basically be sure that what is behind her must be the Tower of Truth!
From the battle of the gods to the annihilation of the Tower of Truth, countless forces wanted to target the Holy Light Religion.
But the only one who has the ability to do it and actually does it is the Tower of Truth!
According to the records in the Red Cathedral, the Tower of Truth secretly carried out several projects against the Holy Light Church.
The most famous one is the [Holy Shackle] that directly led to the fall of the legendary Archbishop in White and the Holy Crowned Pope.
If, if the war hadn't ended sooner! If you are really delayed by the Tower of Truth!
When other targeted projects mature, it’s hard to say who will win in the end.
Since Vanessa is so sure, maybe she also has some unknown means in her hands. "
Wright laughed instead: "That's great. Since she can master such an important method, it means that the guy behind her is definitely the core figure in the remnants of truth!
This is the kind of person I want! "
The red archbishop was a little worried: "Wright, you have to be careful. The core members of the Tower of Truth are not easy to deal with!"
"Don't worry Archbishop, I'm harder to deal with than them."
Wright waved to Grandet: "I just checked the accounts of the Chamber of Commerce for the past three years and found that there is a large amount of expenditure every year for the repair of the temple council's house?"
Grandet nodded repeatedly: "Yes, because most of the members of the Temple Council are dignitaries from various countries and celebrities from all walks of life.
In order to ensure the flourishing development of commercial streets and the safe and smooth flow of various trade routes of the United Chamber of Commerce.
Every year, the Chamber of Commerce allocates a large amount of money to the temple for this purpose.
Talking about repairing houses, the money is enough to build ten temple houses. In fact, most of them are for the benefit of the legislators.
Some parliamentary officers are given VIP-level treatment in commercial streets. "
"Very good. Call enough people to follow me to the Temple House tomorrow."
"What are you going to do, boss?"
"Debts demanded! Demolish the house!"
