Chapter 337: Shiloh's Candidate At this moment, Pope Heynckes is sitting in the prayer room.
The Pope's Prayer Room is considered one of the most mysterious and sacred places in the Temple of Light.
Because this prayer room is a place where the popes have prayed alone, meditated, prayed, prayed to the goddess to get in touch with her, to listen to her will.
Entering this prayer room is the Pope's prerogative as the Goddess's spokesperson on earth, so the Pope naturally has the only right to listen to the Goddess's will.
The rest of the Church who wants to know the will of the Goddess can only be communicated from the Pope.
There is no doubt that this is an unbreakable foundation for the preservation of the authority of the Pope.
Although, what is embarrassing is that even as the "spokesperson of the goddess in the world", even if the pope has been praying day and night in recent years, he has never received any message from the goddess, and the so-called divine decree of the goddess is naturally impossible to talk about.
It's been more than a hundred years For more than a hundred years, the most devout believers in the Temple of Light have never received the will of the goddess again, as if their gods have completely abandoned these human believers.
It is difficult for a god who is unable to perform miracles to maintain his authority for a long time.
The Temple of Light has been repeatedly suppressed, persecuted, and gradually weakened for more than a hundred years, which has something to do with the fact that they have always been unable to get the will of the goddess.
More and more people no longer believe in the goddess: a god who cannot see and who has given up his own people, what else is there to believe in In addition to Coatis XVII, who died just after his abdication, there are three popes who have not been able to make contact with the goddess during their reigns.
Even one of the popes died in the prayer room, with bloody eyes and a desperate face, and of course, the matter was kept secret by the Church's top brass.
In order to keep it a secret so as not to lose the faith of the faithful, even the personal attendant who served the Pope was secretly executed.
Generally speaking, once the Pope enters the prayer room, the general affairs of the Church are easily not disturbed, unless they are of great importance.
But tonight, in the middle of the night, His Majesty Pope Heynckes in the prayer room was still alarmed.
The person who saw him come in and interrupt his prayer was Tacitus, the current Grand Knight of the Holy Knights of the Church.
Heynckes immediately suppressed the unhappiness in his heart: he knew this old friend of his very well, Tacitus was resolute and pious, and although he was more radical in his work, he could at least distinguish between priorities and priorities, and since he dared to disturb his prayers, then there must be something important that he had to bring forward.
Sure enough, the news brought by Tacitus moved Heynckes after hearing it.
"Darling Chan really is him" In the candlelit prayer room, Heynckes' face looked cloudy under the candlelight.
Tacitus's expression was also very serious, he bowed, but his voice was sonorous and powerful, and he said in a deep voice: "There is a big incident in the palace today, someone has robbed the prison and escaped, this Master Darling Chen, who has recently been jointly asked for release by the three major magic organizations, obviously escaped from the palace by himself.
It's already under martial law, and I don't know where he has the ability to run here."
Heynckes shook his head: "The person who can make the three major magic organizations jointly protect is naturally extraordinary, I am not surprised that he has the ability to escape from the palace, but how could he come to us He is a magician, and it is not safer to go to the magic academy Well, yes, the city defense is blocked, he can't go out of the city, he can't go to the magic academy, but even if he goes to the magic society or the magic union, there is no reason to come to the church." ” Speaking of this, Heynckes raised his head and smiled bitterly: "It seems that this Master Darling Chen has come to collect debts."
At the beginning, he saved the lives of Montoya and Lan Lan, but now he is desperate and has come to the church to seek refuge, which is not too strange, but how can he have such courage Isn't he afraid that we will arrest him and send him to Shiloh" "That's what amazes me."
Tacitus's expression became more and more solemn, and he suddenly knelt on one knee on the ground, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, I let them be put into the church without your permission.
The stakes are so high that I made such a decision on my own initiative."
"Get up."
Heynckes' expression remained unchanged: "I understand you, Tacitus, although you are more radical in your actions, but you will not mess around, since you let them in and come to see me late at night, there must be a special reason." ” Tacitus paused, his expression with a hint of excitement, even anxiety, that made Heynckes feel a pang in his heart This old friend of his own, who has dedicated his life to the church, is resolute and tough in the Holy Knights, even if he is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, he will not frown a little, but at this moment he shows this anxious and excited look, then, that Darling Chen must have brought some terrible news really "That Darling Chan said," Tacitus' voice trembled a little: "He is an oracle of the gods who brings the will of the goddess" Teng Heynckes suddenly stood up "There's news" Shiloh slowly put down the quill pen in his hand, he looked calm, and even when he put down the pen, he didn't forget to lick the tip of the quill next to the inkwell, erasing a drop of thick ink.
Picked up the piece he had just written, blew the ink in his hand, and then raised his head to look at the person in front of him.
Standing in front of him was a tall middle-aged man, with a handsome face and a hint of sharpness hidden between his eyebrows, but he was very careful to hide this hint of sharpness.
"General Garonin."
Shiloh looked down at the piece of paper in his hand again, "I hope you bring good news. ” Garonin's expression was calm, he only owed slightly, and sighed: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, Your Majesty." ” "Hmm."
Shiloh nodded, raised his eyelids and glanced at Garonin: "People didn't catch up" "Yes."
Garonin said slowly: "The light cavalry of the city guard pursued twenty miles west along the Lancang Canal and caught up with the suspicious merchant ship, but when they caught up, the ship stopped on the shore, and there was no one on board. ” "Go on."
Shiloh remained unmoved.
"The scout reported that after searching around, there was news that it was almost evening, someone saw the boat stop on the shore, and then the people on board went ashore, carried things out of the cabin, and built two airships, some left in the airship, and the rest scattered in the field and left on horseback."
Shiloh was silent for a while, he put down the things in his hand and sighed softly: "Okay, since this is the case, it's different to chase it anymore."
Hum and then move, sure enough, it is the style of the tulip family.
I think this retreat was prepared long before they robbed the prison, and even the airship was ready.
I think that the father and daughter of the Liszt family, as well as important people such as Darling Chen, must have taken an airship to the northwest, and the airship went to the sky, so it would be difficult to catch up.
The rest of those who fled on horseback on the shore were just some small minions, so they didn't have to bother to chase them, and they were worthless. ” Garonin wasn't surprised by Shiloh's reaction, he actually nodded: "That's what I think.
But Your Majesty, how do you react to such a thing, I'm afraid you have to be cautious, otherwise" Shiloh smiled, glanced at Garonin, and nodded, "It's good that you like to use your brain more than Aker.
Those Thor's Whip guys were full of indignation, shouting and shouting to kill.
Even Aker advocated that I be tougher, and it seems that your opinion is a little different from his."
Although he knew that this was the emperor's deliberate attempt to put himself on the opposite side of Aker, Garonin did not have the slightest surprise that the emperor wanted to sit firmly in his position, and he could not rely too much on Aker's Thor's whip system, and he, the leader of the royal city guard line, was naturally to be brought out as a counterbalance, and this point, Garonin had already realized it.
"Your Majesty, my opinion is that this matter cannot be put on the table after all.

If a blatant order for reprimand and accountability is given, it will only exacerbate the current situation.
The things in front of you are like a big meal, and Tulip House should be the last main course.
If you rashly pick up a knife and fork and start with the main course now, I am afraid that those dishes that are appetizing before the meal will be a little difficult to deal with.
I think that since the duchess of the tulip family has written you a personal letter, it would be better for you to reply with a personal letter.
Moreover, it is always necessary to find a suitable person, go to the northwest, and meet the duchess with his own eyes. ” Shiloh smiled, this time with a hint of undisguised appreciation "General Garonin, the messenger to the northwest, I originally belonged to Panin.
It's a pity" Garonin's expression changed, and he hurriedly said: "Panin has not recovered from his serious injury, I'm afraid it will be difficult to take on such a big responsibility, and" Before he could say it, Shiloh smiled faintly and said: "And the coup d'état, Panin killed too much, even if he once had some love with the Tulip family, he would have been cut off a long time ago."
Send him to the northwest, in case you anger my little aunt."
Looking at Garonin's ugly look, Shiloh waved his hand: "Okay, you don't have to worry so much.
I don't doubt the loyalty of the Garonin family, your family has sacrificed and sacrificed a lot for me, Panin even sacrificed an arm for me, I feel guilty about him in my heart, how could I let him go to the northwest for such a thing.
I have already written a letter to the Northwest. ” As he spoke, he smiled lightly and pointed to the piece of paper on the table full of words: "It's just the messenger's candidate, what do you suggest?"
"Originally, it was the most suitable to choose a young child in the Luo Lin family, the relationship between the Luo Lin family and the Tulip family is close, even if you want to come to the Tulip family, even if you are dissatisfied, you will not tear your face to the messenger of the Luo Lin family."
Garonin said lightly.
Shiloh frowned at first, then loosened his brows and glanced at Garonin: "Oh, you think you should pick someone from the Rollin family" "I think the second son of General Aker is the right person."
Garonin bowed his head.
Shiloh was silent for a while, with a weird smile on his face, but he shook his head and said, "This person is not a good candidate."
Change one. ” Garonin raised his head with a look of embarrassment on his face: "Your Majesty vetoed this candidate, then I can't think of anyone else." ” Shiloh sighed, but looked at Garonin's expression more and more kindly: "I think of a person who has never been involved on either side of the New Year's Eve, and has a deep personal education with your son, and has never been estranged from me.
Moreover, he also has a relationship with the Tulip family, so he can be said to be the best candidate. ” "Oh, you're talking about Lord Rose, Count of Villa."
Garonin thought for a while, and then said: "Ross is indeed a suitable candidate, I am dull, and sure enough, His Majesty is still very smart."
Shiloh shook his head, but suddenly jumped away from the topic coldly: "How are Panin's emotions in the past two days?"
Garonin thought for a while and said cautiously: "The mood is fine, but these two days are holding the sword and thinking hard."
But the spirit is fine, the doctor and the theocrats of the church have seen it, the wound has healed, but the body is still a little weak, and I think it will be healed in a month or two. ” Shiloh nodded, and his tone was very serious: "I am shocked by the affairs of the palace today, and now the Imperial Forest Army is a new army, and the Red Feather Cavalry needs a general who can reassure me."
In this position, I only care that Panin will wait for the vacant position, and when Panin's injury improves, I will be officially appointed. ” After a pause, Shiloh slowed down his speech and said slowly: "You understand my intentions" Garonin did not hesitate, immediately knelt down on one knee, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty's trust and kindness to my Garonin family, the Garonin family will be loyal to the death" to be continued
