Chapter 322 Being remembered
After resolving the issues at the mine, Crown stayed in Hammers City for three days. He returned to Rhine City only after the mine was confirmed to have safely resumed production.
He first went to the Holy Fire Cathedral to explain the situation to Flanders.
Although the message had already been passed back, the process still needed to be followed. Otherwise, the archbishop might feel uncomfortable, so basic social etiquette had to be followed.
Flanders, who was handling academic affairs, glanced out the window and happened to see a golden light flying in the distance.
He stopped what he was doing, walked to the window, opened it as wide as possible, waved, then turned around to get a bottle of white wine and poured two glasses.
Klauen entered through the window, his alloy armor and golden wings all retracted into his skin.
With more convenient "transportation", he now tries to save energy and takes an unconventional approach.
"Cavendi sent a message back and the matter was resolved smoothly."
"Thank you." Clown took the glass, clinked it with the archbishop's, took a sip, and said with a smile:
"It wasn't difficult, so it went smoothly."
"It's a good thing you went. It would be very difficult for others."
Flanders said sincerely that two silver-level extraordinary people were sent to deal with the mining issue. If the problem could not be solved in a short period of time, it would be impossible to ask Rhine City for help.
The other party's ability to solve the problem quickly further proves its strong strength.
He paused and continued:
"During the few days you were away, the Vatican's airship arrived and delivered your reward.
You have now reached the fifth level, so the effect of the flame essence should be very small, right?"
Clown nodded slightly. He understood what the other party meant and said with a smile:
"You've already set your sights on the things before they even reached my hands. I sent four silver hearts to the Holy See. What did the Pope say? How many rewards did he give?"
Among the four silver hearts, three came from a fourth-level Chimera.
The reason why the church’s reward was so generous last time was mainly because a silver-level enemy was killed.
But this time, only two silver-level enemies were killed, and it is entirely possible that the Pope will give a discount before redeeming the credit.
"Osman was very generous and gave four rewards directly."
"So generous?" This time it was Crown's turn to be surprised. In fact, he himself did not expect that the reward would not be discounted.
"Yes, it is true. But..."
Flanders took out a letter and handed it over:
"I also brought back this letter of commendation."
Crown took the letter, quickly scanned it, frowned slightly, and said, “For me, there is no substantial reward, but it will arouse hostility from some people.
This move by the Pope is not considered a reward."
He saw clearly that being a cardinal in an area where the church was weak would probably restrict his church affairs in every way and he would inevitably be suppressed by the king's faction.
As for the blank check of becoming Pope, he has no interest in it, not to mention whether it can be cashed.
The achievement of killing two fifth-order soul-eating jellyfish was downplayed by the Pope. He was cunning and wanted to be used as a knife by the other party.
"But we can't say that this reward is not generous. The next Pope, haha, at least this title is something that many people want to have."
Why do people in this world rush around? Just for two reasons: fame and fortune.
The Pope of the Church of God, this title is well-known throughout the entire continent.
"It's just a nomination. We still need to wait until the Cardinals' Conference is convened to vote."
Crown shook his head disinterestedly. This reward was even worse than chicken ribs.
He finished the wine in his glass and said, "For a meeting like this, I, the person involved, should also be present, right? I will just reject this proposal when the time comes."
He doesn't have much desire for power, so he behaves quite freely and easily.
Flanders drank a glass with him, remained silent for a few seconds, and said tentatively:
"Are you really not interested in the position of Pope?"
This is the Pope. Whether in the history of the church or the history of the continent, a pope can be regarded as a significant figure, let alone the pope of this period.
If there was an opportunity to become Pope, he would be excited.
"Archbishop, I am not lying. If I were interested in the position of Pope, I would definitely be willing to fight for it, but as I said, I am not interested."
Putting down the wine glass, Crown opened his arms. He wanted to embrace the whole world. The position of Pope might hinder his development.
"When the meeting is held, I will stay in the Vatican for a while longer. I need to refer to the experience of my predecessors on how to proceed."
He planned to read all the books open to him. Many records might not be correct, and reading widely could prove their falsification.
Flanders nodded with mixed feelings. He felt a little depressed because he thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but in the eyes of others it was just like that.
Sighing silently, he changed the subject: "After continuous reconnaissance, we found that the cultists have evacuated deeper into the city. When the city ruins are completely bombed into ruins, the reinforcements from various parishes will evacuate one after another.
I plan to build a small camp at the location of Zak Town and station several small airships. We must not relax our investigation of the cultists."
"Yes, I should." Clown nodded and continued:
"Archbishop, do you have any other instructions? If not, I have things to do when I return."
"Are you so impatient to chat with an old man like me?"
Flanders said jokingly, he took out another map and said:
"It marks the areas where evil space creatures have descended, but they are all within the range of the Southern King's line. There are only these two left in the Farouk Kingdom."
"Okay," Crown happily took the map, glanced at it, folded it up and put it in his inner pocket.
"Let's go," the Archbishop waved his hand.
"Goodbye," Crown walked towards the window.
The alloy armor wrapped around his sturdy body, his rose-gold wings spread out, the sunlight was blocked, and the entire room was shrouded in shadow.
With his wings flapping gently, Crown soared into the sky like a cannonball.
Flanders stared at the golden shadow going away, lost in thought.
After a long while, he sighed and said, "You are still living such a pure life even at the fifth level. With talent and hard work, it is inevitable that you will achieve what you have today."
If Crown heard this, he would be ashamed. Without the golden wall, he would not be able to hold on.
The positive feedback after hard work is the most important.
When Clown returned to his mansion, he immediately began to meditate on the Golden Light Mantra to restore his energy. He wanted to break through 100,000 points of proficiency in the Golden Light Mantra as soon as possible.
The existence of the Golden Light Dao Seed did not slow down his progress. Those who obtained the Dao Seed (beast trainers) also seized the available time to improve themselves, except for Fujin and Baster.
One of these two pets is lazy at night, and the other is lazy during the day. They just muddle through as long as the Sunfire Liquid (Moon Dew) they get is enough for their own use, and they never remember to store some for emergencies.
When his energy was almost restored, Crown began to practice the Savage Bone Breathing Technique and kept trying new training methods with great enthusiasm.
The road ahead is bright, and you can achieve it as long as you work hard, so of course you will not hesitate to work hard.
With half of his strength depleted, he sat down to rest, waiting for his energy and blood to recover before summoning the golden wall.
[Golden Light Mantra: 57237/300000; Level 4]
[Barbarian Bone Breathing Method: 1732/80000; Level 5]
[Flame Breath: 6632/80000; Level 5]
Now that he knows the location of the alienated area, he will head there to search for it after the war.
This won't take much time. Try to improve your proficiency in the Golden Light Mantra before going to the Vatican and obtain an additional five Dao Seeds.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The more Tao seeds he sent out, the more people would "work" for him, and the days of making money without doing anything would be one step closer.
Firestone City, Leihart Province.
In the setting sun, the River Volta outside Hatfield Manor was covered with an orange veil.
The breeze blew gently, and ripples appeared on the surface of the river.
This manor is a royal property and is inhabited by the older generation of the Saxon family.
A luxurious carriage covered with gold foil was driving quickly along the road covered with weeds. When it arrived at the gate of the manor, the guards outside immediately opened the gate and saluted solemnly.
The carriage drove into the manor and stopped in the residential area. A white-haired butler stepped forward and opened the door of the carriage:
"Your Majesty, please."
The carriage was the carriage of the current King Arthur Saxon. A burly man with a thick king's beard came out and ordered:
"Butler Ford, I need to meet a few uncles to discuss important matters."
What's so urgent? Ford was slightly stunned, and immediately responded: "Qiao Sen, take His Majesty to the meeting room, I will go and inform the princes."
After saying this, he made way for the king to walk in front, and then trotted off to notify the relevant personnel.
Arthur came to the meeting room, sat in the chairman's seat, took out an exquisite envelope and placed it on the table, silent.
His hands under the table clenched into fists from time to time, and it was obvious that his heart was not as calm as he appeared.
Two people came to the meeting room one after another. When everyone was present, Arthur seemed to realize something.
He raised his head and waved gently to Ford: "You all go down."
Fude winked at the servants and led the way away.
After the servants left, the door closed again. Arthur picked up the envelope and pushed it out with a little force:
"Uncles, please read this letter from Osman and tell us how to respond."
The people sitting here are the backbone of the Saxon family. All of them are silver-level transcendents, and there are three of them in total.
The Saxon family has the blood of gods. As the spiritual concentration in the world continues to rise, the blood is beginning to revive, and there are currently four silver-level transcendents in the family.
The other is Arthur's younger brother, Lexis Saxon, but the prince is currently inspecting work in a neighboring province.
"The church actually has a fifth-level extraordinary person? How is this possible? The Golden Family with divine blood on the continent has never produced a strong person of this level. How can a bishop reach this level?!"
Prince Lerol, a thin-faced man with gray hair, had his eyebrows arched and his forehead was covered with wrinkles.
Arthur's eyes were gloomy, and he said slowly: "Osman will not lie about this kind of thing, and it is impossible for him to lie.
No matter how unbelievable it is, it has happened. What should we do? The Saxon family's position as pope has been stolen by those bishops for thousands of years. I don't want the next pope to be an outsider. "
Since he was a child, Arthur was determined to regain the position of Pope and restore the glory of the Saxon family.
He also had a smooth journey on the path to becoming a transcendent. Two years ago, he had become a fourth-order transcendent, but his achievement was concealed by a rare and unique item from his family, which prevented him from being noticed by others.
Now that I finally see the opportunity, how can I be willing to give it up to others?
The other prince was named Sean. He was slightly plump and looked pampered.
He coughed twice, cleared his throat and said:
"In the holy war of the last era, several gods fell. I think this lucky fifth-level person has a high probability of awakening the bloodline of a god.
If we prove that this guy has the blood of other gods, he will definitely not be able to serve as the Pope of the Church of the Lord of Fire."
Leroy shook his head. “If this guy named Klauen is a descendant of an existing god, this method is good. If he is just a descendant of a fallen god, this method may not work.”
It would be a great shame for the gods if the existing descendants of the gods served as popes of other churches, and it would certainly not succeed.
But it is hard to say about the descendants of fallen gods, there is still a slight possibility.
Lerole thought for a moment and then added:
"Your Majesty, is it possible that this person could be won over? There are still about two months until the Moon of Flowing Fire. We can first investigate this bishop and then prescribe the right remedy."
Sean said: "Would anyone refuse the honor of becoming a pope? This person is powerful enough and is destined to become a stumbling block to the family."
He cursed Osman in his heart. The other party was not far from death, and the Saxon family showed signs of revival.
After the other party's death, there is a great possibility that the family will regain the position of Pope. Who could have expected that such a genius would appear in the church.
Arthur rubbed his forehead and thought of a way: "Since the Saxon family lost the position of Pope, although the Pope has always been the strongest person in the church, the Pope candidate must meet many conditions.
They also wrote the process into the holy scriptures, and I remember that one had to have served as a cardinal for more than ten years to be eligible to become a candidate.
We can start from this link. As long as this Crown cannot become a cardinal, he will not be able to become the Pope after Osman's death."
“Your Majesty is right. The Church is not a one-man show of the Pope. The appointment and removal of cardinals also requires a vote.
We just need to get enough cardinals to vote against him at the meeting, so that Crown will not be able to become a cardinal as he wishes."
The more Leroy thought about it, the more it made sense, and his expression relaxed:
“Your Majesty, we can start from two aspects. On the one hand, we can win over the cardinals. There are many people who want to take the position of Pope. If there is one less person competing, these people will be willing to do so.
In addition, we must investigate Crown Moya's background, maybe we can find out his misdeeds.
There are some things that everyone knows, but if they are exposed, hehe, then he will definitely not be able to serve as Pope! "
