Power and Empire Chapter 1346: The reversal of people’s hearts (2)
Hobart’s embarrassment caused everyone in the room to be nervous, everyone didn’t know what happened, "what the **** was going on," someone asked nervously in the dark, Hobart’s bellows-like voice Intermittently, like being squeezed by something, neither acknowledging nor denying, just trying to say "outside...outside...imperial army..." "imperial army...outside..." These two words are like The electric current of 10,000 volts touched everyone’s nerves,
"Boom" Hobart hadn't finished speaking, and then he was stunned to see that the room was chaotic, like a bombed ant, and the people sitting there began to commotion," What should I do! We are surrounded! "Someone screamed in horror
"Hobert, you traitor, did you attract the Imperial Army!" Someone began to scold him,
"I...no..." Hobert looked aggrieved. He tried to make his words clear, but who cares?
At this moment, everyone’s hearts are like being pinched by countless giant hands. An invisible sense of oppression makes everyone feel that the door is too peaceful outside, as calm as a brutal imperial soldier. He would break in with a wooden door at any time, and he would chop everyone here into pieces with a sharp sword in his hand, peeling and cramping!
This is a sign before the storm. Almost in a short moment, the inner fear makes the hairs stand up,
"Damn, I should have thought of it a long time ago,"
Suddenly, a fat figure stood up. He was sitting in the temple priests, the highest priest of Ashton branch, Kathy, his status in the temple is second only to the presbytery. The high priest of, is the backbone of the Southern Sect in the temple, and the main planner of the saint's plan. According to the plan, as long as the new saint is in the position, and the high priest Palschenna happens to be stabbed. The saint can justly become the new high priest, and the southern faction can use this opportunity to regain control of the holy religion.
Just like the predecessors who used to dominate the sacred religion hundreds of years ago, they used theocratic power and human heart to reach an equal agreement with the secular kingship, so that the glory of theocratic power can continue,
But now, his fat body jumped up like a spring, and hurriedly put the priest's hat on his bald head. He said, "I'm sorry, but I must go back to the temple right away! It's too dangerous here. I have a hunch that the imperial army unlocked the locks in order to draw us out and wipe out the phrase "I should have thought of it". With a strong southern accent, this sentence sounds full of ridiculous feelings on weekdays. It is even more ridiculously called "Kathy that should have been thought of long ago" than my colleagues, but people who hear it now have a different feeling,
saw him leaving, and the priest Archibald, who was equal to him beside him, also stood up. Looking at the other intermediate priests with complicated eyes, he said condensedly, "I agree with Kathy's superior priest. This is a trap of the Imperial Army. Everyone will leave immediately. Or there is a glimmer of hope, good luck to you all!"
Priest Archibald tried to suppress his voice, trying to make himself look calm, but his trembling hand betrayed him. Nervously, even the hat was worn upside down, revealing the white undercoat in the priest's robe, after discovering something was wrong. After fiddled with it several times, he finally put his hat on his head. If it was normal, the Archibald priest would feel a kind of calmness. But now, he is like a mouse being stared at by a cat. Imagined and decisively jumped out from the back window,
completely forgot that just a few minutes ago, he "Baidu ★ Meng Meng 桜 ★ Text" also held up the wine glass loudly praising the arrival of the new era of theocracy, "Pah, ah!" There was a sound of heavy objects landing, then It was the sound of Priest Archibald knocking over something,
He himself and the colliding object almost made a dull and painful sound outside the window, which sounded full of funny joy,
"What's this!" Seeing the two high priests presiding over this matter, one after another panicked jumping through the window, the other intermediate priests who had nowhere to escape were suddenly dumbfounded,
They were all summoned by these two high priests. It is very close to the residences of these two high priests. They only need to climb over the back vine wall. Even where the Imperial Army is looking for them, the two high priests I believe there are enough reasons to keep everything clean,
but myself, so many middle priests gathered here secretly, it’s hard to explain,
"It's over, it's dead this time!" The minds of some middle-level priests who participated in the meeting have begun to flash in the minds of the empire's previous examples of this matter, arrest and execution, and wipe the entire family from this land. Miserable scene,
The **** human head was hung on a wooden frame in the square for public display, and the corpse was hung on the wooden frame. After the wind blew, it creaked and swayed miserably, turning into a black and terrible hole. , The black crow pecks his own meat bit by bit until it becomes a dried corpse or a horrible bone, from children to old people, not one has been spared. Although it is mostly hearsay, everyone is convinced that the empire must do it. This is just like the ruthlessness they showed when they killed 30,000 punk tribes in the Black Forest.
"I don't want to die!" In the chaos, some people lay on the table with a headache and crying, some of their faces were like dead gray, their whole bodies slumped on the chairs, and they seemed to have lost their souls." Bastard, we all I was deceived! "There are still some people who regret that their intestines are all green. What a thing! If it weren’t for the tempting promises made by these two guys, who would be willing to be involved in this storm? Is the Vicia Falcon’s tiger **** easy to touch? It’s just a matter of flipping the empire. History can know that the sword of the empire has never been kind to the insurgents.
Although they are not a rebellion, what they are planning now is no different from the rebellion. If everyone used to hold up their wine glasses to celebrate that they had made the right bet, they just need to wait quietly. You can enjoy the benefits of theocracy,
And now, they feel like thrown chess pieces, the fish being pressed on the chopping board, being poured down over and over by the icy ice water,
dying to death, from the forehead to the tail bone behind, every piece is groaning in pain,
Who still cares about the new era of theocracy now?
"slap" a sword light fell heavily in the secret room. The blond female Mamunuk knight drew out her knight sword and cut off a corner of the long table with one sword.
The cold light and sharpness of long swords temporarily stopped the panic of the priests,
The female Mamunuk knight gazes, flashing with chills, and says in a cold voice, "The situation hasn't been figured out yet, what are you messing up! Hobart, what is going on?"
Until this moment, everyone thinks of the forgotten Hobert,
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect to cause such a big panic." Hobart looked at the scene in front of him sluggishly, realized that he had caused a great misfortune, and shuddered at a loss. I said apologetically. "I just didn't have a chance to speak at all. In fact, what I want to say is very simple "Baidu ★ Meng Meng 桜★ Text" list, that is, the Imperial Army did not come here, and nothing happened outside" Hobert voice After a pause, he saw that most of the priests looked at him angrily,
In this kind of gaze, he felt like a sinner, which made his apology fly away, and he cursed inwardly, it was not me who lied to you!
"What's the big thing you just said?"
At the critical moment, the female Mamunuk asked coldly, and Hobert came back to his senses, her eyes glowing with memories, and said bleakly
"I went to the city of St. Nicholas at the foot of the mountain to investigate the movement of the Imperial Army, but I didn’t find a scene of the Imperial Army gathering. Instead, there were cheering crowds everywhere.
I saw an announcement that the Empire just issued this morning! According to the announcement, after consultation with the temple, the saint will be selected from the civilian population from now on, and the Vijay Falcon will also participate in this viewing ceremony, and will personally give blessings to the new saint! "What, the saint is chosen from among the common people!"
Although their lives have just been out of danger, under the impact of this news, the priests’ mouths are still big enough to swallow a toad,
The news of was like a heavy hammer to them, and they were just ashamed. "How can this be!" a priest muttered in a daze, "Choose a saint from the poor and humble civilians, saint Can a woman still be a saint!"
"But there is no explicit stipulation that the saints cannot be selected from the common people!" Another priest said with a frustrated expression. The priests are not fools, they are more proficient in playing word games, otherwise how can they win the believers What about the trust,
"What's the reaction of the civilians?" The female Mamunuk knight still holds a trace of luck
"Cheers and thunder!" Hobert shrugged helplessly. "I saw the statue of the prophet at the bulletin board of the city square~ IndoMTL.com~ is the one sent by the Imperial Army. To be honest, That is the most approachable and touching prophet I have ever seen,
Even I think that is the true face of the prophet. The original decision of the prophet should be to choose the saint from the common people! "Asshole, how can they do this!"
The female Mamunuk knight opened her eyes wide, and hit the table with a hard punch. Compared with the previous sentence, she paid more attention to the back.
What does it mean to personally give blessings to the saint? By convention, only theocracy has the right to recognize the secular kingship,
After what happened, divine power needs the blessing of secular power,
This is a naked tampering, a transgression of the secular kingship over theocratic power,
This simple reversal is almost equivalent to telling everyone directly that the royal power of the empire is above the divine power!
She suddenly realized that she had made one of the most serious mistakes. She didn’t know who her opponent was, and she was too optimistic that she had the chance to win.
What she felt was a kind of grief and frustration. All her efforts had been turned into water at this moment. She had imagined the reaction of the empire to this saint ritual, and even made various plans to deal with it. , I didn’t expect it,
Wikea Falcon, the undefeated invincible commander in the battlefield, will be so shameless to overthrow everything directly, completely letting himself have no chance of wanting a comeback!
