In the sky, a knight flew into the square of the McKenna family castle on a golden eagle. At this time, the castle had no defenses, so the golden eagle could land on the square.
The knight jumped down when the golden eagle was still more than ten meters away from the ground.
"Lord Speaker!" The knight ignored the other lords present, and went straight to Speaker Gould and bowed in salute.
"How's the investigation?" Speaker Gould asked directly without introducing to the lord next to him.
"Here are all the relevant materials!" The knight took out a stack of materials from the space item and handed it over.
Speaker Gould took the information, flipped through it casually, then nodded and waved to the knight.
After the knight saluted, he jumped into the air, and the golden eagle caught the knight and soared into the sky.
Including Lord Ludwig, the lords present did not ask any further questions. Needless to say, this knight is a member of the intelligence organization. The 'Dawn Alliance' and the intelligence system of the Supreme Council are all in the hands of Speaker Gould. It can be said that the entire God The person who holds the most secrets in the big world is Speaker Gould.
The intelligence system of the 'Dawn Alliance' alone is a combination of twelve powerful top aristocratic intelligence organizations, coupled with the intelligence system of the Supreme Council, as long as Speaker Gould wants to know anything, he can find out through the intelligence organization.
"Lord Ludwig, a major incident happened yesterday in Yea Xing. Priest Johnston was assassinated. According to the information from the Temple of War, the imprint of the McKenna family was left at the assassination site!" Gould With a wave of the speaker's hand, an energy barrier surrounded all the lords, he said softly.
"Priest Johnston? I haven't heard of it. This method of framing is too naive. Could it be that the Temple of War slaughtered the McKenna family based on this?" Lord Ludwig asked in disbelief.
How could it be possible for a premeditated assassination to leave important physical evidence or family imprints at the scene? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is an act of framing.
"You forgot, those who are in power in the Temple of War are not people who are good at business!" Speaker Gould shook his head lightly as a reminder.
The capable priests and priests of the Temple of War were almost killed by Lord Arthur. Archbishop McIntyre, who is now in power, was not famous at all before and had no achievements.
Even the bishops promoted by Archbishop McIntyre were extremely unfamiliar to the lords.
It doesn't necessarily mean that these new managers of the Temple of War have no brains, but many things that require experience cannot be figured out with wisdom.
Not to mention the sense of expansion from a low level to a high position is enough to affect the judgment of a wise person.
"Also, the priest Johnston who was assassinated was not an unknown person. He wrote many temple works and was a master of theological theory. Although he was unknown among the nobles, he was a Extremely famous." Speaker Gould continued to explain.
"Then what should we do? We can't just let the Temple of War prevaricate with this reason!" Lord Ludwig shook his head and said.
"Priest Johnston is a fourth-level sky knight. The positions of the three fourth-level sky knights of the McKenna family when Priest Johnston was assassinated, and the witnesses are all here. It can be confirmed that no sky knight in the McKenna family has time to assassinate John. Priest Ston." Speaker Gould said lightly.
Having said that, Speaker Gould had a weird smile on his face.
"There is still this information for you. No matter who comes from the Temple of War later, this information can make the other party lose face!" Speaker Gould took out a copy from the information in his hand and handed it to Luther Lord Vichy said.
Lord Ludwig took the information and looked at it, and soon a strange look appeared on his face.
The rest of the lords were a little curious, and they also took the information. After reading it, they all had the same strange expressions.
"Bishop Abu Sauron of the Temple of War visits Lord Ludwig!" A voice came from outside the castle. In fact, all the lords here sensed it as early as Bishop Abu Sauron was marching here.
It's just that they were a little dissatisfied with the fact that the Temple of War sent a fourth-level priest to deal with this matter, so they didn't stand up to welcome them.
Unexpectedly, the one who came was a bishop. It is normal for a fourth-level priest to be a bishop. In the past, there were also fourth-level priests who became bishops in the Temple of War, but they were all talents that were focused on training.
This strange fourth-level priest, judging by his age, was no longer young, and he didn't look like a talent no matter what.
"Bishop Absolon, please come in!" Lord Ludwig did not come out to greet him, and he mobilized his blood and said in a deep voice.
Bishop Absolon, who was standing at the gate of the castle, was annoyed in his heart. He is the bishop of the Temple of War, with a high position and authority, and Lord Ludwig is too disrespectful to him.
But he came to negotiate, so he couldn't just turn his head and leave before the negotiation started, so there was no way to explain to Archbishop McIntyre when he went back.
Bishop Absolon looked at the six fourth-level priests behind him, who were responsible for protecting him, but these six fourth-level priests probably couldn't even deal with Lord Ludwig's finger.
But with the current strength of the Temple of War, it is not easy to send six fourth-level priests, and it is impossible to send him the few Templars.
Bishop Absolon thought for a while that he belonged to the Temple of War, and secretly encouraged himself. No matter what happened to Lord Ludwig, he would not dare to touch him, the bishop of the Temple of War.
Thinking of this, Bishop Absolon strode into the castle.
As soon as he entered the castle, he saw Priest Johnston lying on the ground. Priest Johnston was the only fifth-level Templar in his hands, but now he was lying on the ground dead.
The rest of the knights were fine, they were all squatting on the ground like quails, and even Bishop Absolon didn't dare to look up when he came in.
Bishop Absolon frowned. He was extremely dissatisfied with these knights. These knights lacked the slightest dignity and courage.
Just as his eyes swept over the corpses on the side and saw the people sitting behind him, his body shook a few times. If it wasn't for a fourth-level priest behind him who helped him up, he would lose his composure on the spot collapsed.
Bishop Absolon saw Speaker Gould and the nine legendary lords beside him, including Lord Ludwig.
Only now did he understand why those knights didn't even dare to raise their heads.
Not to mention those knights, no knight dared to raise his head casually in front of the ten legendary knights.
After forcibly stabilizing his emotions, Bishop Absolon began to comfort himself. It was only Speaker Gould who was here, and the terrifying Lord Arthur was not here.
After such psychological comfort, Bishop Absolen found that he was not as afraid as before.
"I have met Speaker Gould, Lord Ludwig, and all the lords!" Bishop Absolon saluted.
"I came here with a few lords just to be a witness. Bishop Absolon should talk to Lord Ludwig. Let's watch!" Speaker Gould said with a wave.
Speaker Gould did not have the slightest respect for Bishop Absolen, and Bishop Absolen was not angry at all. In front of Speaker Gould, Bishop Absolen was very correct in his position.
Who is Speaker Gould? That is the speaker of the Supreme Council, who is in charge of the 'Knight's Restraining Card'. More importantly, this is Lord Arthur's friend. Based on this alone, Bishop Absolon dare not Speaker Gould has no complaints.
"Lord Ludwig, the Temple of War arrested the McKenna family because of the assassination of Priest Johnston. We have evidence to prove that the assassination of Priest Johnston was done by the McKenna family. Please release all Your priest!" Bishop Absolon turned to Lord Ludwig and said in a deep voice.
"In the case of the assassination of Priest Johnston, is your so-called evidence a piece of clothing with a mark? That is to say, after someone killed Priest Johnston, he tore off the corner of his clothing at the scene?" Luther said. Lord Vichy asked in a mocking tone.
"Lord Ludwig, Priest Johnston is a pious priest. We found that he had conflicts with the McKenna family, and it's not just the physical evidence left at the scene." Bishop Absolen gritted his teeth and said.
Bishop Absolon also discovered at this time that there were some problems with their evidence.
But everything has already been done, and it cannot be said that the killing was wrong.
A group of novices without any experience will inevitably make mistakes when encountering such a designed case.
In fact, the person who designed this case also took the situation of the Temple of War into account, so that the current result came about.
"Priest Johnston is a pious priest. This is your pious priest. Look at what Priest Johnston did!" Lord Ludwig threw a piece of information in his hand to Bishop Absolon and sneered.
Bishop Absolon received the information and saw that Priest Johnston kept a group of women in captivity in a villa in the main city of Yea Xing. These women were all missing women in the main city.
Bishop Absolen couldn't believe the information in his hands. How could Priest Johnston be such a person? How could a priest with such a deep understanding of the divine righteousness be such a person.
"Do you need confirmation? Now the Noble Affairs Office, the main city law enforcement team, and several noble representatives from the main city are all heading to that villa. Why don't Bishop Abu Sauron go and have a look?" Lord Ludwig continued to pursue.
These intelligences are actually all the information that Speaker Gould ordered the intelligence organization in his hands to start a comprehensive investigation of all the information about the Temple of War after he had a bad relationship with the Temple of War.
Every war temple is surveyed, and the war temple in the main city of Yi'a Xing is naturally included.
Priest Johnston's investigation is also part of it, but if Speaker Gould is not concerned, the information of Priest Johnston will not be reported to him.
You must know that the entire Temple of War is too large, and there is too much darkness involved.
"I need to investigate before I can give you a reply, but no matter what, there are always assassinations, and the priests only deal with the assassins!" Bishop Absoren said with some lack of confidence.
"I can provide the locations and witnesses of the three sky knights of the McKenna family when Priest Johnston was assassinated yesterday. Bishop Absolen, you can also provide corresponding evidence. I invite Speaker Gould to be a witness. If Absolen Bishop Lun is still not satisfied, I can ask the archbishops of the other four temples to come and help with the notarization!" Lord Ludwig said in a deep voice.
"Wait a minute, I want to ask Bishop Absolen, when will the Temple of War kill nobles without trial? Is the Temple of War already used to dealing with nobles like this?" Speaker Gould suddenly interjected.
These words were very serious, making Bishop Absolen's face tense.
Bishop Absolon could not answer. This operation was originally an act of revenge. If the relationship between the Temple of War and the Supreme Council had not been so tense, the Temple of War would not have acted alone, at least it would have notified the Supreme Council.
"These priests are all staying for a fair trial. If the Temple of War is worried, you can send people to participate in the trial!" Speaker Gould continued.
His words were decisive, and Lord Ludwig showed gratitude. It was Speaker Gould who took over the troubles of these priests.
"Speaker Gould, are you the representative of the Supreme Council?" Bishop Absolen asked after being silent for a long time.
"I represent the Supreme Council, myself, or Bishop Absolon thinks I am not qualified? I can ask Lord Arthur to talk to you!" Speaker Gould replied in a deep voice.
After Speaker Gould said the name of Lord Arthur, Bishop Absolen only felt dizzy in his brain.
The most important thing for the Temple of War in the recent period is not to be an enemy of Lord Arthur, to give in to anything related to Lord Arthur, and not to provoke Lord Arthur.
This is the oracle of the God of War. With the release of the oracle, the priests and priests of the Temple of War became extremely afraid of Lord Arthur.
Lord Arthur who can make even the God of War give in, in the hearts of the priests and priests of the Temple of War, Lord Arthur is a demon who can oppose the God of War.
This kind of evil that cannot be exorcised, accompanied by the loss of a large number of powerful people in the Temple of War to Lord Arthur, made Lord Arthur's evil name even worse.
It is impossible for outsiders to imagine the fear of Lord Arthur in the Temple of War. It is a fear comparable to the belief in the God of War.
When Bishop Absolen heard Lord Arthur coming over to discuss with him, he didn't even hear what Speaker Gould said casually, and his mind went blank.
Not only Bishop Abu Sauron, but also the six priests behind him were all pale, with fear flashing in their eyes.
Speaker Gould exchanged glances with Lord Ludwig and the other lords. They did not expect that the bishop of the Temple of War and several priests would react in this way just because of Lord Arthur's name.
This happens only if the priests and priests of the War Temple fear Lord Arthur.
"We need to go back and discuss it!" Bishop Absolen finally regained his composure, said something hastily, and left with six fourth-level priests.
