Dark King - Chapter 636

Chapter 636 – Chapter 636: Alarming The Whole World

“Sooner or later we will face it. Why should we be afraid?”Dudian indifferently said: “Get Ready.”

Richelieu looked at him deeply and bowed his head: “Yes.”

Whoosh!

A snow pigeon landed on the windowsill of Carvey’s study. Carvey was recording the secret activities of the Dark Church’s third region in recent days. He was going to give it to the pope when he came back. He saw the snow pigeon that suddenly landed and disturbed him, he frowned and stopped writing. He took off the scroll from the snow pigeon’s foot and slowly rubbed it. After a while, his pupils constricted and he cried out in shock, “Pass the throne? Promote a little apprentice knight?”

The tiny words on the scroll were very clear. After a moment, Carvey slowly came back to his senses. He still found it hard to believe. He even felt that someone had secretly used this communication channel or replaced the letter.

“I’ll verify it first…”he thought to himself. He immediately took out a new piece of snow paper from the side and wrote with a brush.

On the other side, the famous poet, Antonia, was drinking wine and explaining the difference in rhythm between classical poetry and modern poetry to his two proud students. Suddenly, his eyebrows moved slightly, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, he stopped his explanation without batting an eyelid, he said, “Today’s class is over. You should go back and think carefully about what was mentioned above. Remember, emotion is not the only thing in poetry. Not only does poetry have praise, it also has criticism. Most importantly, poetry must have dignity!”

“Yes.”

“Yes, teacher.”

The two students stood up respectfully, bowed, and left.

After the two students left, Antonia said indifferently, “Sir, come out.”

A figure covered in a black robe slowly walked out from a shadow behind the room. His body seemed to be covered in a blurry fog, making it difficult to see his face and figure clearly, he laughed softly and said, “The master has implanted the eye of a hunter. His perception is indeed not comparable to that of an ordinary person.”

“I don’t dare.”Antonia said indifferently, “Sir is the master.”

“You flatter me. We only know how to do some evil things like what you say. We can’t be compared to you, a great and proper poet.”The black-robed figure chuckled and then stopped laughing, he said, “I came to look for you today mainly because the Holy See has given you a mission. I hope you can complete it by today!”

“Huh? What Mission?”Antonia frowned.

The black-robed figure said in a low voice, “It’s the same. I’m still writing poems. This time, I’m writing a poem to praise an apprentice knight of the Holy See. His name is ‘Barton’!”

“Praise an apprentice knight?”Antonia was a little surprised. Moreover, he was from the Holy See? When did the dark church become so kind-hearted? He thought for a moment and said, “Is there anything special about this person?”

“There’s nothing special about him. He’s just an ordinary person.”The black-robed figure said slowly, “However, his identity is not that ordinary. He’s about to ascend to the throne and become the new pope.”

“New Pope?”Antonio suddenly stood up from his chair and looked at the black-robed figure in shock. “Are you saying that Richelieu is about to abdicate? How is that possible? How can this matter be so Sudden?”

“It is very sudden. That’s why I need you to write a hymn for the new pope to make everything seem more natural,”said the black-robed figure.

Antonia was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized something. A chill rose in his heart as he said, “Could it be that the dark church is the mastermind behind the succession of popes? How is this possible!”

“These are not things that you should know. You should now think about how to write a hymn.”The black-robed figure said coldly, “After you finish writing the book and hand it over to the Les Chamber of Commerce, they will print it out for you immediately.”

“Les Chamber of Commerce?”Antonia’s expression changed slightly. Although he did not have a deep relationship with the dark church, he knew that the dark church was behind this chamber of Commerce. In other words, this matter was completely planned by the dark church!

He really found it hard to imagine how the dark church could suddenly get involved in the matter of the succession of popes. One had to know that the radiant church had been suppressing the dark church for so many years. Otherwise.., the Dark Church would not have to hide in the dark. After all, the process of hiding was very painful for many dark church members. They were hunted everywhere and could not be seen, they could only live alone in a dark place. Moreover, life was very inconvenient. This caused many dark church members to become more eccentric and cold as they entered the church.

However, now, the followers of the cult of Shadows had directly controlled the heart of the Church of light. This was simply unimaginable!

Once the Church of light was controlled by the Church of Shadows, he could not imagine what the outer wall would become in the future. When the light turned into darkness, but darkness mixed with the light, would it be chaos or destruction?

His thoughts were somewhat chaotic and confused. Soon.., the black-robed figure’s words interrupted his thoughts. “Another thing. In the afternoon, the Les Chamber of Commerce’s newspaper will send people to interview you. During the interview, please support the new pope, Mr. Barton. He is a great leader. I hope you will remember this!”

Antonia came back to his senses, and his expression changed. He knew that the other party wanted him to remember this sentence. It was to make him praise the new pope in the interview, and it had to revolve around this sentence, there must be no other negative words.

This interview was just for show. Even if he did not say so, the newspapers would most likely “Speak for him”.

“I understand.”He lowered his head slightly and agreed.

The dawn shone down from the slope of Mount Utto. The warm light dispelled the darkness and cold air that shrouded the countless buildings. The newspaper delivery man rode a fast horse and sent the newspapers to every family. Some were noble manors, some were rich people’s courtyards, and some were exquisite small houses. They were sent from the bustling area of the outer wall all the way to the suburbs, and then to various small towns and villages.

The newspaper delivery men were like ants, constantly moving around the streets, carrying information.

A farmer was drinking hot soup, eating cheese bread, and flipping through the morning newspaper at 7:30 am. He was enjoying this leisurely breakfast time. However, when the newspaper was opened, he was instantly stunned and widened his eyes, he had drunk so much that he forgot to swallow the soup. He almost let it flow out from the corner of his mouth. He was stunned as he looked at the biggest headline on the newspaper

“The ninth pope of the radiant church, Mr. Richelieu, will inherit the position of Pope today. A new person blessed by God will be in Charge!”

The farmer was stunned for a long time before he reacted. He quickly looked down. After a while, he finished reading the entire newspaper. At this moment, the hot soup was no longer hot. The cheese bread beside it was also cold, but he had completely forgotten about it, he fell into deep thought.

One had to know that the change in the pope was a huge matter even for an ordinary citizen like him! Other than spreading the faith and building the temple, the Holy See also controlled the division of land, as well as the taxation of part of the land, as well as the asylum tax. The so-called asylum tax was something that everyone had to pay, even the ordinary civilians in the civilian areas were no exception, unless they were so poor that they ended up in the slums and became refugees.

This asylum tax included many things, such as the invasion of the dark cultists, the invasion of the monsters outside the wall, and so on. However, it did not include the invasion of beasts, which was the responsibility of the military.

Therefore, if the pope was replaced, these taxes might change! This had happened in the past when the Pope was replaced. After the sixth Pope took office, the biggest change was the increase of the protection tax by 10% ! It made all the civilians miserable. Fortunately, the last pope was killed by the dark cultists after less than 10 years.

It was one of the few times in history when many people were grateful to the dark cultists.

“The new pope…”the farmer looked worried. The harvest this year was not good. If the new pope raised taxes, his family would be burdened, and they might even have to dismiss the serfs.

As the morning paper was issued, cries of surprise came one after another from the various manors and courtyards. This sudden news caught everyone off guard. They did not expect the change in the Pope to be so sudden, such a sudden change.., it had happened in history, but not often. Could it be that something had happened to the previous Pope’s body? For a time, countless people were speculating.

At the same time, they were also curious about the identity of the new pope.

In the room of the headquarters of the Tribunal, Feyerate looked at the newspaper in his hand and read it over and over again. He read every word carefully until there was no possibility of any mistakes. Then, he slowly put down the newspaper, with a bang, he suddenly slapped the newspaper on the table. Flames almost spurted out of his eyes. “Damn Richelieu, what the hell are you doing? !”

“Sir, why didn’t the pope inform us that he was going to abdicate the throne? Did he suddenly get some kind of evil disease?”An old man in a priest’s robe asked in puzzlement.

Feyerat clenched his fingers tightly and crumpled the newspaper into a ball, he said, “With his vigilance, do you think he will get an evil disease? This old man loves his life the most. The doctors around him are the best in the outer wall. If there was any evil disease, they would have found it long ago!”

“Then why did he suddenly abdicate?”The old priest was even more puzzled. “Could it be that his lifespan is approaching? That’s not right. As far as I know, he should be able to live for more than a hundred years.”

Feyerat said coldly, “This matter, we have to ask this old thing to know. Damn it, I don’t know where he is hiding now. I heard that he was attacked by assassins and someone sneaked into the upper echelons of the Holy See, so he disappeared. I didn’t expect that his disappearance would cause such a big incident!”

The Old Priest said in a daze, “Could it be that someone kidnapped him and forced him to pass on the throne?”

Feyerat narrowed his eyes. “It’s possible, but it’s not very likely. This old man’s strength… is much stronger than that of the Great Radiant King!”

“Ah?”The old priest was stunned.

“Immediately inform the presiding judge of each branch. Tell them to mobilize everyone and find this old man for me!”Feyerat’s gaze was cold. “I want to see what he wants to do by giving up his throne so suddenly!”

“Yes.”

At the same time, in the Knight Hall, the nine elders who had received the title of legendary knight gathered in the Parliament Hall. Ilola looked at the crowd, “Everyone, Richelieu is abdicating. It’s too sudden. Who knows where Richelieu is now?”

“First Elder, it’s too sudden. It’s normal if ordinary people can’t get the news, but we didn’t get any news beforehand. Could there be something fishy going on?”Another person said.

“That’s right. In my opinion, Richelieu must have a plan and purpose for making such a decision. We have to guard against it!”

“That’s right. In recent years, the Church of light has been pressuring our Knight’s palace more and more. If there weren’t nobles on our side, we would have suffered a great loss!”! “However, I’m sure you all know the new rule of the Church of light five years ago. Any noble who joins the church of light can pass the exam unconditionally. Moreover, they can become official knights of light after three years. If they perform well, they will improve faster!”! This rule is obviously to snatch the power of the nobles from us!”

“The radiant church has always been full of petty tricks, HMPH!”

“I wonder if the military will cooperate with this matter.”

Ilola listened to everyone’s words and was silent for a moment before saying, “You must find Richelieu before noon today! Also, immediately investigate the background of the new pope!”

“Leave the investigation of the new Pope to me!”One of the old men took the initiative to say.

“Alright!”Ilola nodded.

A moment later, the meeting ended.

The crowd gradually dispersed.

The old man who proposed to investigate the new pope left the hall of knights and went straight back to his castle. As soon as he entered the castle, he went upstairs to his room. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the sofa in the middle of his room, a figure wearing a black robe and a mask was sitting there, enjoying a cup of tea with his legs crossed. There was a black scorpion tattoo on his wrist.

The person who dared to carve the tattoo on such a conspicuous spot on his wrist was obviously not an extremely careless rookie, but an extremely confident one.

“How was the meeting?”The black-robed man tilted his head to look at the old man who entered the door and said with a smile.

The old man saw the relaxed look on the old man’s face and was slightly stifled. His face darkened and he said, “This is my home. You should be more careful. If others see me, I will be exposed!”

“Don’t worry.”The black-robed man said with a smile, “If others come near, I will know without opening the door.”

The old man knew of his ability, but he still felt that this attitude made him a little unhappy. He frowned slightly and did not pursue further. He sat on the other side of the sofa.., he said, “The others also feel that the change of Pope this time was too sudden. There was no news beforehand and they thought that there was some plan. Therefore, the others are currently investigating and preparing to find out the whereabouts of Richelieu first.”

“Yes, this is within the expectations of our Lord.”The black-robed man nodded slightly.

The old man’s gaze moved and he asked, “That Lord is?”

“The one I told you about last time.”The black-robed man glanced at him. “The lord who subdued twelve elders in one night, our new Speaker!”
