Chapter 295: Death of the Cardinal
Time passed by bit by bit, and the three saints who were still lying on the ground were struggling to crawl towards the door.
But they were so exhausted that even after struggling until now, they couldn't even crawl out halfway.
They were tempted to call out to the knight at the door.
As long as someone finds out something is wrong, the other party's plan will fail instantly.
However, their voices were so faint that people outside could not hear them at all.
What's more, whether it's the expensive carpet under them or the spells clinging to the surrounding walls, the entire room is extremely soundproofed.
In the past, this was a double enjoyment of spiritual and material, but now it has become a deadly cage.
But even so, they did not give up struggling.
But the harder you try, the easier it is to despair.
I don’t know if it was a few minutes or ten minutes.
They were frightened by the time bomb under them and began to pray to the faith they had long abandoned:
'Your Majesties, please have mercy on us and save our pious servants!'
"I regret my sins, but Your Majesty, you cannot ignore your servants!"
'Save me, save me, please, please, my Lords! I am your servant, I am your sword! You can't do this!'
This ridiculous sound actually got through.
But even if the prayer has been conveyed, it will not have any effect.
Because the one who sentenced them to death was the Lionheart, to whom they were praying.
Hearing this faint prayer, Moon couldn't help but look back at the flagship.
After looking at it for a while, Moon, who was standing on the deck, was puzzled:
"How dare you pray to me?!"
Although they didn't know who killed them, didn't they know that their actions constituted a heinous crime against the king?
He had clearly abandoned his faith from the very beginning, but now that he was about to die, he actually began to repent and pray for salvation.
Such a funny scene even made the king couldn't help but lower his head and laugh.
And that huge and magnificent flagship also burst out with light comparable to the sun at the moment the king bowed his head and smiled.
There was no sound, but more and more light beams leaked out from the flagship, and then everyone saw the birth of a new pale sun!
This scene is so dazzling and shocking.
So much so that whether it was Moon standing on the deck, or the church soldiers on the other ships, or even the people of the city of Rodgrens who were waiting to welcome the two cardinals under the arrangement of the church.
Everyone saw this shocking scene!
Because of the special nature of the flagship, even a poor man who couldn't even write his own name knew that the largest and most luxurious airship must be the one for the two cardinals.
But now, that thing has exploded?
This doubt arose in my mind.
The pale sun then burst out with a terrifying impact that swept across the earth.
This force not only shattered the fleet, but also brought about a huge wave of wind and waves towards Rodgrens.
Although it did not destroy everything on the ground, it made everyone feel the horror of the explosion of that power.
Amidst the wind and sand, there was a loud explosion like thunder on the ground.
This time, everyone knew one thing—the two cardinals were definitely dead!
Not only the Patriarch died, but even the cardinals sent from the Holy City died!
Things that had never happened in the entire New World for tens of millions of years happened one after another before their eyes.
Plus the strange dark night before.
I think even the dumbest person would have noticed that something was wrong.
Things are bound to change in their New World!
Such discoveries and ideas began to give people, who had been stagnant for a long time, a sudden sense of hope that they had never had before.
It is still unknown what changes this glimmer of hope can bring. But at least there has been a change.
This is something that has almost never happened in the entire Storm Parish.
-
No need to confirm anything.
After witnessing that scene, the three surviving demigods in the fleet said to their subordinates with pale faces:
"Tell the Holy City that the two cardinals have been assassinated! Now, they have returned to the kingdom of your Majesties."
After saying this with trembling hands, they all looked uneasily at their feet on different airships. The airships under their feet naturally had no use for such an exaggerated treasure as the Dragon Heart.
But the death of the two cardinals really scared them.
Soon, the news of the death of the two cardinals swept across the New World and the world like the wind.
For a while, everyone was talking about this matter.
Although for the people in this world, they have just experienced the invasion of the abyss in the old continent, so naturally they feel that this matter is a bit unsatisfactory.
But for the Storm Parish in the New World, this unprecedented change was truly gratifying and also made many hearts that had long been dead begin to come alive again.
Where there is oppression, there is resistance. This is an eternal truth.
But the reason why Storm Parish does not have this is because thousands of years ago, countless resistances by the people were destroyed like withered trees and rotten wood.
So people who have failed again and again no longer have the idea of resisting.
But they who have been there till now have witnessed a miracle happen again.
Although we don't know who did it, such a change is enough to cause some changes and wait for qualitative changes.
-
When the news of Cardinal Moss's death reached the Holy City.
The young bishop, who had been anxiously waiting for information, immediately jumped up and walked quickly towards a place.
Until he walked to a closed door.
He stopped and took a deep breath.
The door was thrown open suddenly.
Everyone inside looked towards the door.
By the time they saw clearly who was standing in the light.
Their expressions, already filled with various emotions and faces, became even more complicated.
Regarding these different expressions.
The young cardinal suppressed all his emotions and walked in.
Then he stood in the center of the crowd, standing in the position that once belonged to Cardinal Moss.
At this point, he still didn't say anything because he knew these people's emotions were not enough.
They are not confused enough, not panicked enough, not expectant enough.
He will have to wait a little longer.
Finally, after everyone quieted down and showed expressions of surprise and confusion.
The young cardinal raised his hand and shouted to all of them:
"I will give you a better future than what Cardinal Moss has described, so follow me and I will lead you forward!"
The crowd was surprised, angry, astonished and delighted.
However, no one left through the open door.
In a few moments, the young cardinal was enjoying a frenzy of popularity he had never imagined.
Amid the cheers of the crowd, he was thrown high into the air and knew that he had made the right bet!
Moon, who knocked on the door of the tavern again, knew that it was time to go to Camelot!
