At first Sully thought that the party was just an ordinary place for exchanging interests, but when Mavis walked in, he found that it was not.
The Dark Saint has been in this city for a long time, and there is no need for her to stay here for long.
Unlike the Dark Son, Lan Zhe had maintained a status for many years but did not fulfill his obligations. Since no one stopped him, it showed that his value had indeed reached this level.
Only Mavis was different.
A person who came from the Church of Light to the Church of Darkness would be in a subtle state of not belonging to either side until she regained her freedom and made a decision.
The Pope of Light is dead. What she should do is to report these situations to the Pope of Darkness and firmly establish her identity as the Dark Saint.
Only with a sense of belonging can we avoid living like floating clouds in this world.
Therefore, the reason why Mavis chose to stop and stay in this city became that the Dark Pope might have some instructions.
Not to mention the sentence "At least you have to let all the nobles know that you have the power to destroy their entire family at any time"...
This is almost like a statement.
It clearly indicates that the Dark Church, which has been hiding in the dark, will use this banquet to fully reveal itself to the world.
Moreover, Willard's grandfather, the Chief Justice, might have known about this matter for a long time.
This country does not belong to Sully. In addition to the exchange of intelligence, the cooperation between Sully and the Chief Justice is also to peacefully promote certain things that have a positive influence through the man in charge of the judiciary.
What does the judicial process represent?
This means that the Chief Justice has certain powers to command the country's military to directly suppress certain unfair actions.
However, Suli still had a question.
"Even if the Dark Church and the Grand Inquisitor reach a cooperation, the latter will try to "nuclearize" your existence in front of the public...the Grand Inquisitor who agrees to this cooperation should not reveal any information to me."
At this time, Sully was wearing a suit tailored for him, and the crow, who was used to pretending to be a crow, stood on one side of Sully's shoulder like an ordinary pendant.
The boy, who usually only cared about comfort when dressing, wore a non-protective formal suit for the first time. His aura, coupled with the pure black crow, made him look more powerful than the long-standing nobles in the banquet hall at first glance.
Mavis, who was being watched, was not wearing a gorgeous dress that suited her status as a noble lady. She chose men's clothing just like Sully.
After hearing Sully's question, Mavis said, "You have to understand that older guys are more or less unwilling to believe that a plan they have been secretly planning for many years will be pushed forward at a rapid speed by a teenager who has never shown any trace in the past."
When Sully's figure really jumped into the eyes of some people in this world, the emotions they felt were surprise.
Or in other words, incredible.
They may not be able to understand Suli's actions from beginning to end, but they can understand that this young man who has no elemental affinity at all is in the eye of the storm.
And no turbulence would choose to erode him.
This is not because those turbulences are so friendly, but because Suli has already isolated himself from all crises.
"As for the Dark Church, they will use the power of the Grand Chancellor to expose this to the world. In fact, the main reason is you." Mavis spread her hands, glanced at a waiter in a tuxedo, and took a glass of wine from the tray he was holding.
"What I said before was not a joke." It refers to the sentence that all the nobles here must understand that Suli has the power to destroy them at any time.
"At least from my perspective, or from the perspective of the Dark Church, the people around you who can be used by you are too weak."
Suli did not use that word to defend himself, because there was no need. What Mavis said now was just a confrontation with him from a distance on behalf of the Dark Pope.
Sure enough, after taking a sip of wine, Mavis continued, "The main reason why the Grand Justice agreed to the emergence of the Dark Church, which was previously famous for violence in Licheng, is that he has always believed that we belong to you."
Suli immediately understood what this meant.
To put it bluntly, the people from the Dark Church used him as an excuse to negotiate with the Grand Inquisitor, and the fact that the Dark Church's power belonged to Suli deepened the value of the negotiations.
Of course, the justices knew that this was not necessarily true.
But a force that had been hiding for so long and yet had never been completely eliminated by the Holy See of Light, not only was it able to assassinate the king during the previous chaos and escape unscathed, it was even able to destroy the power organizations of many noble families...
The value of its existence and being controlled is destined to be far greater than its disappearance.
The Grand Justice's recognition of this point means that if the people of the Dark Church do not use the power of the Suli side as the guideline for their next actions, then the Dark Church will still become a power organization that everyone will hate.
The Grand Inquisitor agreed to let the Dark Church reveal itself to the world in order to push the control of the Dark Church into Sully's hands. Coincidentally, the Son and the Saint of the Dark Church were by Sully's side.
To put it bluntly, this is a tacit cooperation between the two parties.
Even though there are calculations between the two sides, as long as the result is good, there is no big problem.
as well as……
The real purpose of this banquet is to push Suli, or the city of mercenaries, into a position that is both good and evil.
The nobility is definitely not a power organization that can be easily and completely destroyed in a short period of time.
Before their financial and human resources are properly drawn out and invested in viable ways, anyone who attempts to utilize these resources must create the impression that the nobles are still in a safe zone.
Why do we need to demonstrate and let them know that they are still safe?
The point is that no matter how close the king of this country is to Suli, he cannot show it openly.
And on the surface, they have to act as if they are hostile to each other.
The king and Ophelia are restraining each other, Willard is stirring up trouble, and from the perspective of the Chief Justice, the only one who is worthy of being in a superior position is Wei.
But unfortunately, the queen and her son are now in the city of mercenaries.
Without a formal education, if you want to secure the throne, you can't do it by taking temporary lessons. For you, the easiest way is to follow Suli and deepen your understanding of the new world.
But for a young boy, the meaning represented by a peer who not only saved his life but also taught him seriously is very likely to be directly greater than the throne itself.
Of course it is possible, but for the nobles, the royal family and the Mercenary City have joined forces, and one of the leaders of the Mercenary City also holds the Dark Church in his hands...
Once this situation occurs, even if they do not choose to fight to the death, the sustainability of their development will definitely be disrupted.
Otherwise, they will just become fat fish lying on the chopping block, ready to be slaughtered at any time.
As for a Supreme Court justice who is already quite old, he does not want to see, and absolutely does not want to see, a scene where everyone is killed and the net is broken. That would be too redundant for development.
After Sully figured it out, he held his head with his hands and prayed from the bottom of his heart: "I really hope there are one or two idiots who will come to my house and let me slap them in the face."
Mavis shrugged and said, "I don't think this can be achieved through prayer."
The purpose of the Dark Church is to get rid of the various labels that the Light Church has given them over countless years.
Apart from anything else, Sully had never met the Dark Pope in person. Among his many actions, one of the purposes must be that the old man did not want to see any new dark elementalist being forcibly hunted down without making any mistakes.
Or like Mavis, she was persecuted.
It's just that the two people who had already exchanged information overlooked one thing.
That is, Egbert, whose conditions for obtaining intelligence were even fewer than Sully's, did not quite understand what was going on.
Egbert now had a confused expression on his face. Suli just tried to explain to him, but stopped abruptly when he was about to say anything.
Because Egbert had already comforted himself and calmed down, he said confidently, "Lord Sully saw something I couldn't see, which only means that I haven't worked hard enough."
Suli blurted out: "I have never seen you so good at pua yourself."
He wanted to explain, but Egbert didn't give him a chance.
The former Son of Light was now staring with a pair of sky-blue eyes, naturally reflecting Suli's figure completely.
Mavis couldn't help laughing beside her.
Just when Sully thought that no one would be stupid enough to give him a slap in the face, a group of nobles started pointing fingers at them not far away.
"They are poor people from some remote city." A male nobleman stood straight with his brows furrowed and spoke in a harsh tone.
"I've never seen that before. The laughter is really rude," someone agreed.
"But that boy is good-looking, much better looking than the ones I have at home." The noble lady, holding a fan to cover the lower half of her face, looked at Suli as if she were looking at an item that could be traded.
Sully looked in the direction of the sound with an expressionless face.
Gabriel's invitation was delivered personally by one of the Chief Justice's men.
The meaning is obvious: this family belongs to the line of Chief Justice.
To understand it from another perspective, Egbert and Mavis just blew up the place and no one dared to fart.
"I think you're right. Praying doesn't necessarily result in idiots." Suli lowered his voice. "After all, idiots are everywhere."
"Do you need me to help you kill him?" In Mavis's concept of right and wrong, she would never kill anyone intentionally, nor would she think that killing someone would definitely please herself. She just thought that killing someone was a means to achieve certain goals.
Therefore, even when talking about this, Mavis still maintained an expression of being slightly amused by Egbert.
As for the nobleman who stood upright on purpose and said, "On closer inspection, I discovered that you're just a piece of trash with zero element affinity," Egbert kicked him down with his foot on the man's chest, his upper body slightly bent, his eyes as sharp as a knife.
