Chapter 292 The assassination begins
The fleets of the two cardinals were still advancing slowly in the sky.
Everything that happened in Camelot was, so far, known only to the Pope.
For safety and to demonstrate the church's military power.
This time, there are six demigods on board this fleet.
And five of them are Sequence Three!
Only one Sequence Four pulled back.
But even so, he is a genuine demigod.
It is a force that no one can ignore, and it is a high-sequence force that mortals can never defeat by relying on so-called numbers.
Looking at the entire New World, these are powerful teams that can easily slay dragons.
No one thought that anything could happen after all this.
So everyone was pretty relaxed.
In fact, there was no need to be on guard because the other airships on the road would stay away from them.
Even if something else came close, such a wide field of view would be enough for them to see everything.
However, it was not until several ships flying from the direction of Rodgrens approached.
These loose soldiers also became nervous subconsciously.
After all, Rodgers really had an accident.
But after they saw the flags of the airships and the enemy's signals.
They continued to relax.
It was the welcoming team sent by Rodgrens.
It is common in New World etiquette.
However, just in case, the only Sequence 4 demigod personally boarded the welcoming team's flagship.
As soon as he came up, he saw two of the three patriarchs who stayed behind in Rodgrens.
Looking at the Patriarch who was coming forward enthusiastically, the demigod smiled and then ignored him and walked towards Patriarch Glenn:
"Ah, Patriarch Glenn!"
Such a scene surprised Pastor Glenn a little.
He doesn’t know the other person! ?
But after a moment, he realized that this was from the First Cardinal faction!
And Cardinal Goering, to whom he turned, joined the First Cardinal.
After realizing this, Patriarch Gorin looked at the other patriarch with pride, then hugged the demigod who was walking towards him.
After the warm embrace, Patriarch Glenn did not forget the important matter and said to the demigod:
"Sir, in order to express his welcome to Cardinal Moss, Lord Goering asked me to prepare some gifts for Cardinal Moss."
"So you see?"
Is it something like the evidence left by the Patriarch?
The demigod understood what he meant and smiled:
"Of course, I feel very confident that you will personally inspect the team!"
"please."
Having said that, the demigod made way.
Patriarch Glenn immediately boarded the real flagship behind the demigod with his men, smiling widely.
Because everyone knew that the things he brought were not suitable for outsiders to see, no one did any unnecessary inspection.
The other patriarch seemed a little anxious when he saw this.
He didn't know that Cardinal Goering had joined First Cardinal Moss.
So he just felt that he was falling behind.
Just as he was about to follow, he was stopped by the demigod:
"Wait, sir, I haven't checked it yet!"
This made the patriarch look a little ugly, but he couldn't say anything.
Because the demigod is more valuable than him.
Upon seeing this, the only Sequence Four demigod turned to the knights he brought with him and said:
"Check carefully, check slowly."
After saying this, he also looked at the Patriarch who dared to be angry but not speak out with amusement. He sat aside leisurely, waiting for his subordinates to do things according to the rules.
Patriarch Glenn, who had already boarded the flagship, said to the monks behind him:
"You guys take these things to the warehouse. Then you, come with me, we are going to meet the two honorable cardinals!"
Following Patriarch Glenn's instructions, Moon, who had changed into the garb of a clergyman, followed Glenn in another direction carrying a small box.
Before he completely left the team, Morn said to the girl who was also dressed as a clergyman:
"I'll leave your side to you, please."
The girl smiled knowingly and said:
"rest assured."
The two groups separated on the flagship.
Since they were all family members, the guards who were responsible for taking the girls to the warehouse did not take it too seriously.
These are all from Rodgrens.
And when such a big thing had happened to Rodgers, how could they not have carefully investigated everything?
Besides, didn’t a demigod just check it personally?
It can't be that even the noble demigods are assassins, right?
It’s funny just thinking about it!
Therefore, they did not notice at all that there seemed to be one person missing at the end of the team.
-
As they made their way to the two cardinals’ rooms.
Moon, who followed Patriarch Glenn, lowered his head to maintain the proper posture of his clothes.
But he still said to Patriarch Glenn, who was obviously getting more and more nervous:
"My Lord Patriarch, your steps are slow and your breathing is rapid. This is not good, we will be discovered."
Moon's words almost frightened Patriarch Glenn to death.
He anxiously glanced at the two knights leading the way, and when he found that they did not look back, he turned slightly and said to Moon:
"Aren't you too bold? They are the ones in front of you!"
Moen lowered his head and smiled:
"That's why you shouldn't lose your composure like this. Normally, you should be feeling very proud and happy right now!"
Patriarch Glenn couldn't help but mutter:
"Why are you so proud? I have my head tied to my belt!"
"Sir, I have seen many people who cherish their lives for great things and lose everything for small gains. You don't want to become like them, do you?"
The patriarch, feeling a little embarrassed, immediately replied with this sentence.
"Of course! Why else would I come here?"
Seeing this, Mo En smiled and directly chose the most useful method:
"Well, think about what you will get after this time!"
"Well, what do you get?"
"Yes, for example, the new Patriarch of Rodgrens City, or the Cardinal?"
This short sentence made Patriarch Glenn feel elated.
"I, I can become a cardinal too?"
"Of course. After all, you helped Cardinal Goering accomplish such a great thing. So, you must not forget this."
Yeah, why did I think it would be so dangerous?
How could I forget what I would gain afterwards?
And Moon's voice continued.
"You must remember that the person you are going to meet is not a high and mighty cardinal or demigod. What you are going to meet is a stepping stone for you to reach a higher position."
"And there's nothing to be afraid of with stones!"
Patriarch Glenn held his head higher and higher.
However, behind the two people's shadows, due to time and their positions, the figure was stretched into a long number 6.
That is the devil's number, a profane holy number.
But some people also believe that perhaps even earlier, the number 6 was a sacred number that represented a challenge to the old order.
