Chapter 3637 Cardinal Archbishop
Before asking, Su Rui stabbed the guy in the calf, and blood poured into the man's body trembled in pain.
At this moment, this guy was roaring in his heart - it was said that the sun god Apollo was unreasonable, this seemed to be true, without saying a word, let's take a knife first! Is this a warning or an appetizer?
He looked at Su Rui, and the thoughts in his mind were flying, obviously thinking about what to do.
For Su Rui, this time, he learned from his mistakes.
In fact, there are many inconspicuous small villages around the Sun Temple. After all, 70 kilometers is a considerable radius. These villages looked peaceful from the surface before, and no abnormalities were found during the investigation of the Sun Temple. Therefore, this is also the direct reason why the remnants of the Tianzheng Cult can accomplish this time.
Indeed, it was easy to catch Su Rui off guard by hiding under the nose of the Sun Temple.
The warden was able to quietly arrange a hundred self-propelled cannons around, and the Tianzheng Cult could also attack dozens of kilometers without being discovered. This alarm work for the Temple of the Sun sounded the alarm bell.
If this happens again, the Temple of the Sun will not escape the bad luck of being severely damaged.
Moreover, if that day really happened, in Su Rui's opinion, it was...deserved.
Indeed, you can be lucky once and twice, so there will be no reason to be lucky for the third time.
This time Warden Carmen's performance is a friend but not an enemy. What about the next time? What should we do if the real enemy comes?
Looking at the "scepter" hiding in the grass, Su Rui felt thoughtful.
"It seems that your identity is really curious." Su Rui said to the man under control.
This man's temples are gray and he looks like he is about fifty years old. Judging from his skin and temperament, he should be considered pampered in daily life, and he is definitely not the kind of warrior who charges on the front line.
Judging from the current situation, this guy should be the owner of the scepter... or the steward.
In religious organizations like the Tianzheng Church, who owns a scepter?
The answer is very simple... You must be a bishop or even a pope-level figure!
Even if it is not the Pope himself, his status should be very high. He may be a certain archbishop, otherwise this thing would definitely not fall into his hands!
"I think you should have a lot of stories to tell me, right?" Su Rui asked, holding the scepter.
The scepter is cold and cold. It can't be said to be made of metal for a while, but it is full of advanced visual effects. There are some exquisite and atmospheric carvings on it. It looks like it is integrated. Although it is old, it does not contain rotten air. Instead, it becomes more and more extraordinary. I don't know how it was made at the beginning... Su Rui didn't know these craftsmanship, but he could also judge that this thing has a history of at least several hundred years.
Perhaps, this may be another treasure in the Tianzheng Church that is no less than the law-enforcement holy sword. What this treasure is precious is not the value itself, but the status of this thing in the spiritual world of the church.
For the believers of the Tianzheng Church, this scepter and the law-enforcement holy sword are almost priceless treasures. No matter how much power and money you give, you will not be exchanged.
Seeing the scepter falling into Su Rui's hands, a hint of heartache appeared in the man's eyes. Although he immediately covered it up, this did not escape Su Rui's observation.
From this point of view, there seems to be a lot of articles to do on this scepter.
"Tell me, what is your identity?" Su Rui carefully checked the man's collar seal and found that the black hexagram logo embroidered on his collar was different from that of others. To be precise... it was with a circle of purple edges.
Su Rui remembered that Tianzheng Cult seemed to admire purple, but it was just a vague impression. He was not very clear about the specific details.
"I don't know anything, I don't know anything..." The man was obviously a little frightened and waved his hands repeatedly.
However, the pain in the calf was so clear that it seemed to be reminding him not to lie, otherwise the ending might be miserable.
"If you are tougher, maybe I can look up to you." Su Rui shook his head and threw it to Shao Zihang: "Zihang, give you ten minutes to make him spit."
As he said that, Su Rui went to carefully examine the metal scepter.
"Okay, brother, just hand him over to me." Shao Zihang chuckled, then grabbed the man's finger and said, "Let's talk?"
Before he finished speaking, Shao Zihang broke his hands suddenly without waiting for the other party to answer!
Click!
The man's finger was broken!
Ten fingers connected to the heart. At this time, the man's screams were much more miserable than Su Rui's dagger piercing his calves with a dagger!
Only screams were heard constantly, Shao Zihang was straightforward this time, and he forced the man to spit out in less than ten minutes.
It turns out that his name is Scotter, and he is one of the eight cardinals of the Tianzheng Church.
A big fish caught!
…………
Su Rui was feeling a little complicated when he listened to Shao Zihang's report. It was not that he was unhappy, but that he didn't know if he should express his gratitude to the warden.
Well, although he was unwilling to do so and didn't know where the other party's position was, he captured one of the Cardinals of the Tianzheng Church with the help of the warden.
For the declining Tianzheng Church, the Cardinal Party naturally lived up to the grand occasion of the thirty-person "cardinal Party". It is quite difficult to get eight cardinals now.
Scotter was the most high-ranking cardinal. If he was in the heyday of the Bourbon Dynasty, his power would be unimaginable.
Of course, the current situation is naturally a pity for him. He will sigh that he was born at the wrong time and can only look forward to the rise of the Tianzheng Church and the Bourbon Dynasty again before he can restore his former glory.
As the Holy See, which had a great influence hundreds of years ago, even if the Tianzheng Church declined, there were definitely many believers today. For the restoration of the Bourbon dynasty, these believers were definitely the most enthusiastic and firm. Their firmness was even higher than those old and young people who claimed to be Bourbon royal blood.
The eight cardinals each led their believers to scatter in eight different areas, while Scotter had been guarding this mountainous area... Well, to be precise, it was under the nose of the Temple of the Sun.
This time, the Inquisition's law enforcement holy sword fell into the Temple of the Sun, so the burden of taking it back fell on Scotter's shoulders.
For Scotter, this time is undoubtedly an opportunity to make great contributions. As long as he can successfully retrieve the law enforcement holy sword and severely damage the "heretic" of the Temple of the Sun, his status in the Tianzheng Church and the Bourbon dynasty will rise sharply. With such a great contribution, he will be the indisputable pope candidate when the Pope dies in the future.
So, Scotter was very excited today. He seemed to have seen his future full of infinite light.
However, imagination is a real situation, but Scotter was hit hard!
Today he finally realized what a catastrophe is and what a doomsday is!
They tried to achieve their goals in one battle, but they did not expect that the opposite was the case and they were directly made dumplings by the Sun Temple at one time.
When those bombs fell from the sky, when those under the strong faith were blown up, Scotter clearly felt what fear and despair were!
At this time, the so-called "faith" can no longer save the archbishop. He doesn't know where the God of the Heavenly Orthodox Church is blessing him, and he doesn't know whether his believers and warriors can still leave this endless smoke of gunpowder alive!
The so-called faith cannot tell Scotter the answer, nor can he even point him in the direction of escape!
The sound of explosion filled his ears, his eyes filled with splashing blood and broken limbs. Scotter spent most of his life in "preaching". When had he seen such a bloody formation and when had he experienced such a horrifying scene, he was immediately frightened and his legs were weak, and he had to retreat with a few of his confidants.
However, the mysterious warden had already made arrangements. At this time, some of the self-propelled artillery had been raised. One round after another of the shells passed over Scotter and the churchmen's heads, and then the mountain village they lived in usually blew into pieces!
Those houses have become rubble everywhere!
It is impossible to move forward, but you will die if you retreat!
Looking at the strong smoke rising from behind, Scotter was really panicked. The shells kept exploding beside him, and the flying shrapnel kept harvesting the lives of his subordinates. The crowd fell down in pieces. The shrapnel was like plowing the ground, plowing past their bodies, shattering their bones and flesh... There was nowhere to escape, there was only a dead end!
When several master bodyguards around Scotter were blown alive by shells, the archbishop in the cardinal finally decided to escape. It was obviously a game, and the Temple of the Sun seemed to be waiting for them to drill into the open big pocket! If you persist, you will undoubtedly have to meet the God of the Tianzheng Church!
However, although he believes in the Heavenly Orthodox Church, Scotter does not want to give his life to his faith. In the final analysis, the Archbishop of the Cardinal just wants to make this faith a bargaining chip for him to climb up. At the critical moment of life and death, his life is naturally important.
Fortunately, his skill in climbing trees is pretty good. He thought he could stay on the tree branch and escape, but he didn't expect to hit the biggest boss.
"You said you are the archbishop of the Tianzheng Church? So, where is your pope?" Su Rui stared at Scotter, frowned slightly, and asked.
Chapter completed!
