Colin opened his eyes again, and found that he had returned to the church in Tinder City.
The holy light that descended from the sky condensed into a step in front of him.
The steps penetrate the dome, straight into the sky, and lead to the boundless void.
A strong urge made Colin want to step on the steps and climb up, as if something at the end was calling him.
But after experiencing everything in the illusion, how could Colin dare to really climb this step.
He wondered if if he climbed to the end of the steps, would he also encounter everything that the Great Emperor of Ghana had encountered.
A golden throne, an angel descends, and is crowned king
But judging from the performance of the Ghanaian Emperor, everything does not seem to be simple.
Why did he refuse the angel's coronation
Why do angels shed golden blood
What did he mean by - "I just want the world to see your true colors!" "What's the difference between you and me?"
And what is the identity of that female elf
At the end of the way of chivalry, what secret is hidden
While meditating, Colin found that the impulse in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, and the temptation to him at the end of the steps was constantly increasing.
But Ke Lin was trying his best to resist this temptation, staring at the sky with cold eyes, as if he wanted to cross the boundary of time and space, and see clearly what was at the other end.
If I don't go up, will an angel come down
Colin couldn't help thinking.
But that didn't happen over time.
Nothing appeared at the end of the steps, but an increasingly strong call and temptation, trying to guide Colin up the steps.
Unfortunately, at this time, Colin had already made up his mind not to go.
I don't know how long the stalemate lasted, but finally, the holy light that descended from the sky gradually weakened, and the steps slowly dissipated in the air.
The sky of Tinder City dimmed, but was illuminated by the rising sun again.
Ke Lin turned his attention back to himself, feeling the surging explosive power in his body, and for a moment, he had the illusion of omnipotence.
Is this the legendary paladin
…
Outside the church, the Logue knight woke up from his trance.
He shook his dizzy head and slowly stood up from the ground.
"Just now that was..."
"It's a miracle!" Knight McCain, who was kneeling on the ground next to him, said devoutly, "It must be the Duke's actions that attracted the attention of the Supreme Lord! That's why he bestowed grace!"
Knight Logue looked over suspiciously, and recognized that it was the deputy head of the Knights Templar. Just as he was about to ask, the adjutant beside him whispered in his ear:
"McCain Cavaliers have surrendered."
Knight Logue nodded, and followed the words of Knight McCain in praise:
"Praise be to the Lord High!"
At this time, the door of the church opened, and Colin walked out from it.
"My lord duke!"
The Logue knight immediately half-kneeled on the ground and greeted in an extremely pious tone.
Although Colin's appearance remained unchanged, Knight Logue suddenly felt that he was completely different from before.
Like the clouds far away in the sky, unattainable and uncertain.
And Cavalier McCain's performance was even more exaggerated. He crawled to the ground, crawled in front of Colin, and kissed Colin's toes tremblingly.
"Duke Saint Chapman, you must be a divinely favored person who has come to proclaim the Gospel of the Supreme Lord to the world!"
Colin stared blankly at the performance of Cavalier McCain, and couldn't guess for a while whether the deputy head of the Knights Templar was sincere, or he was acting deliberately to win his favor.
However, it didn't matter to him.
After becoming a legendary paladin, there is no conspiracy in the world that can move him.
And he can also use the McCain Cavaliers to reorganize the church.
"Knight McCain, I need you to return to Yulong City as soon as possible, and bring back everything that happened in Tinder City, so that the nobles and people of the empire know the true face of Pope Mensay."
"Yes, Your Excellency the Duke!" Cavalier McCain replied without hesitation, as if he was not worried about the terrible impact this move would have on the prestige of the church.
"In addition, you send someone to the half-troll kingdom to recall the archbishop of the northern border, Adjani, to Yulong City."
"Yes, Lord Duke!" Knight McCain replied again, and, as if to show that he had a deep understanding of Colin's intentions, he added superfluously, "Please rest assured, Lord Duke, the church will definitely elect a qualified candidate as soon as possible." the new pope!"
Colin couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.
He really didn't expect that in the Knights Templar, there would be such a wonderful creature as McCain.
How could this be a pious and steadfast Templar, he was clearly no different from a politician bent on making money.
However, since Cavalier McCain is so knowledgeable, Colin will not say much.
I believe that when the story of Tinder City spreads throughout the empire, the church will no longer dare to disobey Ke Lin's will.
So he waved his hand, signaling McCain Cavaliers to back down.
Then he turned his head to look at the Logue knight and said:
"Knight Logue, you immediately lead 10,000 blood cavalry troops to Bailu City, and execute the Marquis of Obes and Knight Camilla on the charge of murdering the heir of the Duke of the East."
"Yes, Your Excellency the Duke!" the Logue knight responded.
Immediately, seeing that Colin had no further orders, he couldn't help asking:
"Master Duke, then... the new heir to the Duke of the East..."
But Colin waved his hand and said indifferently:
"Let the San Pros family choose for themselves."
To be honest, Colin didn't bother to care about the candidate for the Duke of the Eastern Region at this time. Moreover, as long as the St. Pross family is not stupid, under such circumstances, they should also know what kind of Duke heir to choose.
The Logue knight nodded in response, and was about to leave, but finally remembered his previous mission, and said:
"Your Excellency, I led the army to pursue Mr. Yu before, but I still let him escape..."
Colin showed a meaningful smile, waved his hands and said, "Don't worry about Mr. Xi."
Seeing this, the Logue knight had no choice but to bow and salute, and then retreated.
Colin turned and returned to the church.
Through the front hall, Colin walked towards the backyard of the church.
"Your Excellency the Duke."
An old pastor hurriedly saluted Colin.
Behind him, there are densely packed coffins.
Colin smiled and asked:
"Is the body of the Kurdish mage here?"
"Yes, my lord." The old pastor pointed to a coffin in the southwest corner, and said, "It's here."
"Okay." Colin nodded and said, "You go out first."
Naturally, the old pastor did not dare to disobey, and hurriedly bowed and retreated.
Ke Lin stood alone in the courtyard, but instead of opening the coffin of the Kurdish mage, he showed a confident smile and said loudly:
"Mr. Yu, don't hide, come out and talk."
