Hearing this, Old Bishop Howard's brow twitched slightly, and he narrowed his eyes and stared at the young man in front of him.

"The Templar does not want to get involved in mortal wars."

"Of course."

Jenn doesn't seem to be shy about this.

"In fact, there is nothing good about mundane war, to put it bluntly, the nobles crave land, honor, and what war needs is profit. But these interests have nothing to do with civilians, but in every war, it is civilians who suffer first. They didn't go out to kill the enemy, and they didn't have the glory to win, but they were always the biggest victims of the war. Wouldn't the Templars want to do something for them? ”

"Of course not."

Jenn had already reached this stage, and it was naturally impossible for Howard to shake his head and deny it, so he hurriedly spoke.

"It's just that I think you're well aware that the Templar Order has its own problems........."

"Of course I know that."

Without waiting for Bishop Howard to finish, Jenn interrupted him, the conflict between divine power and royal power is nothing new in the Klein continent. In fact, he also knew very well that the Templar Order was not interested in the world, and the two hundred and fifty or eighty thousand people who dragged it seemed to be out of the mud and disdainful of being in the company of those ordinary people, in fact, they were not unwilling to care, but they were afraid of being used by the ruling class. Zheng zhì is a big dye vat, no matter how lofty the ideal, it will turn bad when it falls into the political zhì vat. The reason why the Templar Order made the decision to separate church and state was because it saw that with the growth of royal power in various places, the influence of divine power was shrinking. In the past, it was they who covered the ruling class. Now it looks like it's going to be the other way around. And many of the ruling class have even tried to use their influence to interfere with the functioning of the Templar Order.

This angered the Templar Order, and the Templar Supreme Bishop of the time, Norwendler, finally decided to initiate a full-fledged Reformation. It was after that that the Templar Order severed its original ties with the ruling class in most of the region. As a result, their status began to become independent and high. To put it bluntly, this is nothing more than a kind of suppression and self-protection of the Templar Order's infiltration of royal power. It was from that time that the issue of the Templar Order's non-participation in politics became the consensus of the Nine Saints.

However, Jenn knew that, to be honest, it was not that the Templars did not want to be involved with the government, but they preferred to be in charge of the matter rather than the other party. This is how the Knighted Nobles actually came about, although it is not a title in various countries, but after being recognized by the Templar Order, the Honored Nobles can go sideways anywhere. This is due to the fact that the Nobles are fully affiliated with the Templar. They have the initiative in this regard, so they can get things done.

But the war ............... It's a big quagmire.

But since Jenn dared to come here, he was naturally ready.

"I think the damage caused to civilians by war is immeasurable, but for the aristocracy, they don't care. Of course, this is also an old problem, but the problem is that many small things accumulate in this way. In fact, many of the cultists we found on our trip to Casalans were those at the bottom. I think you know as well as I do, Bishop Howard, that these cults will be brought in as long as they can be useful, regardless of your origin. And these people are unbearable by the war and have no way to live. In this case, whether it is the Mother of Chaos or the Queen of Blood, as long as you can give them a bite to eat. Do you think they care about what they believe in? Casalans has taught us this with the lesson of blood, if it goes on for a long time. If this continues, things will only get worse. What's more, Old Bishop Howard, you know very well. Sometimes the war between the two sides does not involve the core interests of the country at all, and it is more like two nobles gambling on their own power and face, and the final damage caused by the Templar is still to be borne by the Templars. ”

Hearing this, Howard glanced at Jenn, paused, and finally didn't speak--who threatened him in front of him that the Soros family would start a war without giving an explanation?

Jenn, on the other hand, didn't pay any attention to Old Bishop Howard's eyes, or rather, he had been cheeky enough to ignore a contemptuous attack.

"So I think the Templar Order should take the initiative in this regard and guarantee the right to life of those civilians."

"So Mr. Jenn, what good advice do you have?"

"That's right."

Hearing Howard's question, Jenn couldn't help but smile smugly, he reached out and pushed his glasses, and then continued.

"I think the Templar Order should take the initiative and create a special area in the rear of the war zone for refugees fleeing the war. In times of war, when the blockade will disrupt the movement of supplies, I think the Templar Order could send a team of paladins to deliver some food and necessary supplies to the civilians who are in the middle of the war, at least to let them know that the gods and the Church have not given up on them, even in the most difficult circumstances. And in this way, we can better grasp the movements of those cultists, and prevent them from tempting those helpless civilians........."

"Uh-huh..............."

Hearing this, Bishop Howard's eyes couldn't help but light up. Soon, though, he frowned again.

"That being said, but Mr. Jenn, war is dangerous, what if we accidentally get involved?"

"Fight back."

In the face of Bishop Howard's inquiry, Jenn did not hesitate to give an answer.

"I think the Templar could inform the two sides of a ceasefire for a certain period of time, so that the Templar can send someone to transport supplies to the civilians, and if anyone dares to obstruct it, then they have ulterior motives. I think the Templars will be able to deal a heavy blow to such a murderous and evil creature. And if they're really mad enough to attack the paladins of the Templar Order........."

At this point, Jenn paused and said no more. But his meaning is also very clear. If the Templar were attacked and didn't fight back, they would lose their faces. And. Who would dare to attack the paladins of the Templar Order? Isn't this looking for death?

"Uh-huh..............."

Hearing this, Old Bishop Howard bowed his head. The light in his eyes flickered.

I have to admit that this proposal proposed by Jenn really made the old bishop quite excited.

First of all, the idea he proposed was not an innovation, as in times of war, the Templar Order would have opened churches to shelter refugees displaced by the war, and would have prepared some food for them. It's just that these are all parties doing what they think, and there is no unified rule, so many times the scene will become very chaotic. And listen to Jenn. He had apparently proposed a systematic process that was already commonplace on Earth Jenn, but it was still very new on the Klein continent, but Old Bishop Howard had to admit that it would be much better if the Templar Order could come up with a unified plan for dealing with the refugees, rather than if the Templars could do their own thing. So instead of coming up with a new plan that no one had heard of, Jenn was consolidating what they had been doing before, so that it would be proposed in the Templar Order. There will also be less resistance -- after all, the influence of the old school in the order is still very great.

More importantly, Jenn's idea was so meaningful to the Templar Order.

Since the Second Reformation, the Templar Order has been looking for ways to regain its influence. But little progress has been made. And now, with this proposal by Jenn, it can be said that the Templar Order has found a new way. Indeed, war is the expression of those aristocratic wrestling. But the civilians below are innocent. They are not soldiers and are not responsible for the war. But they have to endure the hardships of war. And, as Jenn said, refugees are always a breeding ground for cultists, and the Templar is a headache for this. And Jenn's current method can not only attract more followers to the Templar Order, but also suppress the influence of the cult, and at the same time grasp the initiative at the political and moral levels -- after all, who dares to stop them from saving a group of civilians, doesn't that mean that he is an executioner who kills people without blinking?

Thinking of this, the more Howard thought about it, the more excited he became, he was not a simple Nadia, and he could see at a glance the important political interests.

Imagine that there is no country on the Klein continent that does not fight? Either externally or internally, it is not friction and disputes between nobles, or wars with barbarians. And if the Templars really take Jenn's words, then they can be said to occupy the legal and moral high ground, and at the same time, they are equivalent to choking the lifeblood of those war maniacs. Howard was well aware that although on the surface the war was a battle between the armies of both sides, in fact a stable rear was also quite necessary. And now, once this steady lifeline is in the hands of the Templars, then they are finished.

Looking at the excited expression on Bishop Howard's face, Jenn couldn't help but smile in his heart. In fact, his mention came from the peacekeeping forces and humanitarian aid on Earth in his previous life, and on the surface, the development and progress of civilization did give birth to something that looked good. Humanitarian aid is one of them, and the right to life is very important............ But what the effect will be, that's not certain.

After all, not every good expectation will come to fruition.

"It seems that this is indeed a very important thing."

At this time, Howard also reacted, he reached out and touched his beard, and then looked at Jenn beside him.

"So you mean ..............."

"I hope that you, Bishop Howard, will be able to propose this proposal to the Templar Order on my behalf, and of course, I know that this is not something that can be fully implemented overnight. If I could, I would also like Bishop Howard to offer to let Eagle Plateau try it out first. Because right now, it's just the right time for the Eagle Plateau........."

There is no need for Jenn to say more, Howard also knows what he is referring to, the invasion of the Shining Gold Empire has caused confusion within the Skar Federation, and in this case, there may be some chaos if one is not good. In fact, he'd received several reports of Paladins being incitement by cultists, which was one of the reasons why Howard was so concerned about Jenn's suggestion.

"Okay."

Thinking of this, Old Bishop Howard finally made up his mind and nodded.

"I'll leave this to me, and I think the Templar Order will be interested in it."

After successfully fooling Howard, Jenn took his leave, knowing that the Templar Order would be interested. And if they really do what they say......... Hey, hey, hey, the Eagle Plateau will never be at peace.

For Jenn, it was a wonderful thing.

However, not long after Jenn returned to the manor, he received a message through the Guò system that surprised him.

The system prompted him that Sofina, who was far away in the Golden City, had received a task -- [Snatch the Staff of the Rings]. (To be continued......)
