Teflon looked at the witch across from him and couldn't help but sigh.

"Is Lord Mayne really out of time?"

"Of course," the witch stroked her golden curls, "or he wouldn't have sent me to the meeting, but I will introduce myself, my name is Isabella, the Purity of the Pope." ”

"Lord Teflon, this ......" The other two new bishops, Thorly Dahl from the Inquisition, looked at each other from the Tribunal, knowing that the Church had a group of secret witches, but they did not expect each other to participate in such a high-level meeting.

"She's a direct subordinate of the Pope, and her position is the same as that of the Bishop, except that she doesn't hold any actual position in the Church," Teflon explained helplessly, "Plus, the Bishop can have his own Purity, and when the Demon Moon is over this year, you can choose a few witches to cultivate." ”

"Hara-I see," Soli's eyes widened, "then...... What kind of abilities do they have?"

"It's top secret, and only His Holiness knows about it. ”

"What do we do with witches," El looked a little dissatisfied, "if the believers below find out, the reputation of the church may be seriously affected!"

"Of course, it's to help you with some shady tasks," Isabella raised an eyebrow, "and besides, you can sleep with you, vent your anger, or play some other tricks...... You know, the taste of a witch is not comparable to that of ordinary women. ”

"Ridiculous!"

"Ahem, that's enough," Teflon coughed twice, "Lord El, I said that the Pope's Purity is on the same level as the Bishop, and when acting as a deputy, you can even be regarded as His Majesty himself, and you should know the most basic courtesy. And Lord Isabella, please don't make such over-the-top jokes, they are not like old people like me who have half a foot in the coffin, and they will take it seriously when they are angry. ”

"As you wish, my lord," Isabella smiled.

"Hmph," El let out a nasal voice, ignoring the other man.

"Then let's get down to business," Teflon said, rubbing his beard, "do you all have anything to report?"

"I don't understand why His Majesty Mayne suddenly asked the local church organizations to escort the captured witches back to the Holy City, even if it is to transform the gods to punish the army, the price we pay is not small. El was the first to speak, presumably angry at the Pure, and her tone was rather stiff, "Since this order was given, we have captured a total of three witches, but during the secret escort, one escaped the cage and killed all the escorts, and we have yet to find her whereabouts. ”

"Didn't wear an iron collar?" asked Soley.

"Not all churches are equipped with the highest level of Divine Punishment Locks," El said angrily, "We have lost sixteen worshippers for this witch, four of whom are samurai preparing for trial. If this happens a few more times, I'm afraid everyone will be afraid of catching witches. ”

"However, we all know that Militant Witches are only a very small minority, and most of the Fallen are incapable of resisting, so this kind of thing is bound to be not too common. Isabella said in a relaxed tone, "And every time you bring back one more wild witch, it is possible that two new Divine Punishment Warriors will be added to the church, which is more important, I should not go into more details, right?"

"I agree with Lord Isabella," Solley nodded, "and now that the pressure on the Hermes Line is increasing, we urgently need more Divine Punishers to fight the Beasts, and one Divine Punisher can be used on the battlefield to withstand three or four Judgment Warriors, not to mention the Reserve Army. ”

"Now that His Holiness has made a decision, let's just carry it out," Teflon turned to Soli Dahl, "how is the defensive line going?"

"It's a lot of work. Normal hybrids are easy to deal with, but the difficult ones are the Helldreads, and every time they appear, a Divine Punishment Samurai will be injured or sacrificed," Solley shook his head, "It's a good way to plant the snow powder in advance and then detonate it, but we can't guarantee that it will pass over the snow powder every time." ”

"That's something Your Majesty has to think about," Isabella said bluntly, "and he's going to use the Siege Beast in advance. ”

"What's that?"

"A siege machine controlled by the Pure, with far more range, accuracy, and power than trebuchets, and it is also a killer weapon for conquering the Wolf's Heart Kingdom. The Pure explained, "The Siege Beast was originally a weapon to be used against the Devil and the Giant Beast, and since the Helldreads appeared early, it was time for it to be dragged out of the Privy Zone. ”

"Why didn't we use it from the start?" Solley wondered.

"Because of attrition," Isabella shrugged, "we can't build new ones, we can only patch them partially." ”

"And where did it come from?" El asked with a frown.

"It's confidential, and you don't have the right to know. ”

"You ......"

Seeing that there was silence in the secret room, Teflon clapped his hands and broke the silence and said, "Alright, since all you brought is bad news, I'll share a piece of good news." Except for a few cities in the Wolf's Heart Kingdom that are still resisting, the nobles of the rest of the country have already taken refuge in us, just like the wall grass in the Eternal Winter Kingdom. More and more believers are joining the Church, and by next summer, the Holy City's resources will be doubled, as will the size of the Inquisition. In addition, the Kingdom of Dawn has also caused a riot due to the wanton expulsion of believers, and my men are secretly assisting them in fighting against the suppressed nobles, and it is estimated that they will be able to hold out until the end of the evil moon. ”

"I finally heard positive news," El exhaled, "I thought the church was going to end." ”

"What nonsense are you talking about," Soli glared at her, "aren't we on track as planned?"

"Well done," Isabella nodded approvingly, then swept her gaze over the three of them in turn, "Now that you're all done, I'll give you an account of the new will of the Pope." ”

The three archbishops immediately set their sights on the Pure.

"His Majesty demanded that the direction of next year's attack be adjusted, giving priority to the capture of Grey Keep, and Dawn coming last. ”

"What?" Solly Dahl was stunned, "but all the previous plans were made for the Dawn Kingdom, as were the material and supply transfers, and if the plan is changed now, the date of the sortie will probably be greatly delayed." ”

"Didn't this order be planned during the reign of Lord Oberline, and why should it be changed now?" said El, who was also very surprised, "both kingdoms will fall sooner or later, is it necessary to pay attention to who comes first and who comes last?"

Teflon was silent, and he had a premonition of the change when His Majesty Mayne asked him to send the Purity to the Grey Keep to lay out the West...... His Majesty's intentions are not in the Greykeep Capital, but in the Frontier Lands.

It was only when the two of them stopped talking that he said in a deep voice, "I have no problem with this will itself, but it does involve a lot, and before it is implemented, I want to see His Majesty Mayne, I wonder if you can tell me about it?"

"Don't bother," Isabella said, "Your Majesty just wants to see you." (To be continued.) )
