Chapter 398 7.52 The Transaction of Archbishop Francis

After entering the stone chamber, the four women immediately dispersed to various corners of the room.

One walked behind the old priest, one sat in front of him, and the remaining two guarded the two doors of the house.

If nothing unexpected happens, there is still one person hiding at the entrance outside the door.

These five people are all "Microa".

Because this "Bishop of Fire" is the Chosen One of the "Evil Path" under the 6 paths of the Fire King.

The ability to control 5 clones at the same time and transmit consciousness to them at any time is the main power of the Chosen One of the Fire Demon Path.

**

The "new gods" born in human civilization are all pragmatic utilitarians.

All the power of the Holy Bishop Chosen One helps to assist the kingdom and maintain stability.

As for the 6 sequence paths developed by the "Fire Gang" who are always hidden in the masses, most of them are related to "spying intelligence, escaping, surviving, and longevity".

The Chosen One under the Phoenix Path can instantly explode into flying insects and enter the gaps that mortals cannot walk.

The people of the embers are immortal.

The witch can enter the target's dream by entering the dream.

And the Flame Pather can use the clone ability called "Lava Mirror" to control all clones at the same time.

In this process, they share consciousness, share thoughts, and even the attack capabilities of the clones are exactly the same.

Among all the clones, if one survives, the "Flame Pather" can survive a battle. Although they need to consume a lot of spiritual energy and time to re-condense the mirror.

But the Flame Pather, like the Embers and the Phoenix Path, is a target that is extremely difficult to completely exterminate.

The old priest looked around and looked at the four red-clothed figures surrounding him without dead angles. When he found that this West Asian woman seemed to have a good figure, the old pervert immediately began to associate with other aspects.

Are these five clones married to five husbands or share one?

If they share one

Holy Lord, can that brother get out of bed every day?

Microa certainly didn't know what dirty and filthy thoughts this seemingly honest old guy had in his mind. She spoke fluent English in a pleasant voice.

"Brother Francis, my brother 'Abi Jean' thinks highly of you."

"I hope we won't waste each other's time."

The old priest gritted his teeth again. He knew that what he had in his hand was extraordinary. But on the other hand, the danger that Loki was in was beyond his imagination.

He had only been in Paris for half a day, but Father Francis had lived in the city for five months. The Duchy of France is one of the richest countries in the Western Continent. There are no less than fifty Tang Dynasty sword cultivators in the city.

Not to mention the nearly 10,000 Golden Scale Guards, each of whom is a powerful warrior trained by the "Golden Broom Family" at a great cost.

Not far outside the city is the training ground of the "Pegasus Knights" and the "Dragon Knights".

If a war really breaks out in the city, it will only take 30 minutes for the Dragon Knights to reinforce the city. After 30 minutes, the fully armed French soldiers will be able to surround the city of Paris like an iron barrel.

If this really happens, only the "Zoroastrianism" who are always ready to flee can help them escape.

Clenching his fists tightly. In the end, he took out the wooden box in his arms, put it on the table, and gently pushed it to the red-dressed woman opposite.

The snow-white hands opened the lid of the box, and four big words appeared in the flickering firelight.

"Received the mandate from heaven, long life and prosperity"

After taking over the Normandy region, when he learned that Bishop Francis was about to go to Paris.

Loki immediately took out the imperial seal and handed it to him.

There was only one purpose -

- sell it for money.

Loki was a thorough pragmatist. In his eyes, everything that was not conducive to changing the status quo was redundant.

For example, when his father died, he could ignore the puzzled eyes of his clansmen and move all the bronze statues of his ancestors in the basement out and melt them into nails.

This was an act that was considered disrespectful by Ahai, the "Common Sense".

The tribesmen could not understand it at all.

But four years later, when he successfully went out to sea, discovered the Sunken City, looted the Lindisfar Monastery and brought back a large amount of gold and silver.

No one said a word of doubt.

When there is nothing left, every resource around must be spent on the blade.

At this time, when he finally took over the Normandy region, a large amount of infrastructure and population replenishment in the two provinces all needed funds to support.

The imperial seal is good.

But in comparison, the stability of the territory and a sufficient treasury can obviously solve his urgent needs.

**

On the other hand, although Archbishop Francis seems to be lustful and treacherous, Loki can unconditionally believe in his loyalty.

When the Viking pirates walked out of the "Sunken City", the old archbishop could hide in an unmanned corner and wait to enjoy the fruits of victory. However, he once again gambled his life and crawled into the Lindisfar Monastery to find out that Ivar had been possessed by a lizard man.

It was this crucial information that made him determined to complete the "regicide" at the wedding, an act that was considered treasonous in the Middle Ages.

Having risked his life for Loki twice, he had no reason to question the old patriarch's loyalty.

Therefore, the task of taking the imperial seal and exchanging it for money could be left to him.

"I believe you have heard that the 'Qinghe Zhenren' of Izumo Trading Company has been missing for a long time."

"Combined with the shocking battle in Hanshui Village and the spies you have planted in the Vikings and the 'Izumo Trading Company', I believe you should know what I have in my hand."

The "Bishop of Fire Transmission" sitting opposite Francis was still calm, but the last clone left outside the door had already turned around and ran into the circular dome on the top floor of the Fire Transmission Temple.

This is the most important secret room in the Fire Transmission Temple.

In it, all the S-level and above members of the pope are stored, and all high-level members of the gang must pay attention to the "secrets of the hidden sect" at any time.

Microa carefully took out a black leather scroll, opened it and read it carefully.

At 1:12 a.m., the Tang sword cultivator 'Ling Qiyue' urgently requisitioned the "Flying Fish Clipper". I saw four Tang people following him. Each of them carried a jade pendant from the Izumo Trading Company.

The leader was the murderous demon "Qinghe Zhenren"!

In the legendary gambling game between "Evening Starlag" and "Gustav Bernard", he finally threw out a strange-shaped jade seal. The arbitrator Luochuan of the Izumo Trading Company changed his expression when he saw the jade seal.

After careful examination, he decided that Loki won.

Preliminary estimates show that the value of this jade seal is higher than that of the Wind's End Castle.

Note: There are 8 Chinese characters engraved on the front of the jade seal, and there are gaps at the corners, which are filled with gold

Microa One by one, he read through all the clues related to the "legendary gambling game" and "the disappearance of Qinghe Zhenren", and quickly integrated the information to piece together the whole picture in his mind.

(This Duke Loki did have a treasure of the East Continent. When the Izumo Trading Company found out, it even sent a Yuanying cultivator like Qinghe Zhenren to compete for it.)

(However, Qinghe Zhenren led many of his subordinates to die inexplicably in Hanshui Village. This shows that this treasure is still in Loki's hands.)

(White jade seal, engraved with 8 Chinese characters, one corner filled with gold)

It is very likely the one in Francis's hand!
