I Will Be The Crowned King
Vol 3 Chapter 195: The robbery of the royal court
After sending off the "kind" judge, An Sen, who was alone, slowly sat on the chair, picked up the coffee that had already cooled down, and calmly thought about the content of the conversation between the two of them.
Archbishop Clovis knew that Anson was not surprised that he was an old god, or that he might have been exposed from the first meeting.
It turns out that Luther Franz didn't care if he was an old **** or not, or even a spellcaster; all he needed was a new "Guardian" who could replace Ludwig and get rid of the black mage Mace Ho. Nader's tool man.
His appearance perfectly filled this vacancy, nothing more.
As for the old gods of Thundercastle, the Iron Sky incident, the beginning and end of the Clovis City riot, the passive "Great Magic Book" and the St. Isaac's Steam Difference Engine...
With the efficiency of the Inquisition, Anson was absolutely convinced that they had figured out these things long ago; but as Cole Dorian admitted, they could find no evidence other than suspicion and motive.
But any evidence that may remain has long been wiped out by Anson... As a devout believer in the Ring of Order, he is so serious and cautious in doing things.
But then again, the trial court knocks on the door without evidence.
But it is precisely because of this that the attitude of the Order of Truth is all the more playful; Cole Dorian may have no idea how much information was revealed in his remarks.
The riots in Clovis City, the formation of the Southern Legion, the truth will appear, the Thirteenth Council exposes itself, the Empire interferes... After quickly sorting out his experience in the past few months, Anson came to a slightly surprising conclusion.
The Empire and the Kingdom of Clovis... Although the contradiction between the two sides has reached an almost endless level, their attitudes are completely the same on the matter of the Thirteenth Council. In any case, the Church of Order will never be allowed to interfere with the Iser elves. "internal affairs"!
The difference is only the means.
Compared with sending troops directly, preparing to destroy Hantu and Clovis together, and “protecting” the empire of Iser Elf Kingdom in the face of church protests, Clovis Kingdom is only more “flexible” in terms of means. A legitimate excuse to make a deal with the church.
The most important thing is that the transaction party this time is not even the Clovis Privy Council or the royal family, but Archbishop Luther Franz himself!
And the person who was organized by him to deal with this matter in front of the Church of Order... that would be even more interesting.
The Truth-seeking Order, which represents the strength of the Clovisian Order Church, the self-representing the interests of the Army and the Franz family, and the Truth-seeking Order, whose position is unclear, but has absolutely nothing to do with "firm faith".
Thinking about it carefully, there are probably only two things that my group has in common - firstly, they are all Clovis people, and secondly, they are basically related to Archbishop Luther more or less.
Cole Dorian even pointed out that it was Luther Franz who asked for a chance to prove his "innocence".
In other words, the person in the entire Clovis Kingdom who is most opposed to the church's meddling in secular politics is the... Archbishop of the Clovis Kingdom Church? !
This conclusion sounds too magical, but it is the most likely one.
After summarizing all the information he had, Anson roughly summed up an overly absurd retrospective:
The elven kingdom of Iser, which was used by the empire, was preparing to unite with the Seven Cities Alliance and declare war on the Kingdom of Clovis; then, aware of its internal instability, the truth took the opportunity to make trouble, and instigated the Thirteenth Council to take advantage of the war to fight for power and destroy the increasingly powerful domestic power. Church power.
But there was an accident - Clovis declared war in advance, Eagle Horn fell, Thun, the most loyal of the Seven Cities Alliance, turned against the water, and the Janissary Legion was almost destroyed...
The war was going on so fast that before the Thirteenth Council and the Truth Society did much, the forces loyal to the Elf King suffered a severe blow, and the influence of the church behind them also dropped sharply.
As a result, the originally cautious Thirteenth Council's "heart of disobedience" expanded rapidly, and set a new "small goal" for himself who was only thinking about usurping power - the alliance empire, destroy Clovis, and destroy Han. Soil, dry up the church... The Thirteenth Council is in full swing, making Iser great again!
Then it all failed unexpectedly.
The White Tower City was conquered, the plan to assassinate Anson went bankrupt, the former Archduke Mist who was behind the scenes was overthrown, and even the ambush of the Southern Legion was pushed back by the speed of light... Iser is almost finished before he has time to be great. .
Not only that, the self-destructed Thirteenth Council also gave the Church of Order, which had always wanted to intervene, an excellent excuse; realizing that this was the truth of a bunch of idiots, they would try to stop their losses and start "cooperating" with the Southern Legion and Luther Franz Action of the Archbishop.
The thirteenth council, which was defeated badly, began to split, and finally began the "usurpation" plan that should have been completed long ago.
From beginning to end, the Thirteenth Council, known as "the first organization of the old gods in history", exposed their own stupidity and oversight so vividly that their worst enemy was themselves.
Archbishop Luther Franz made full use of their clown characteristics, completely destroyed the war potential of the Iser Elf Kingdom, and organized a "firefighting team" when the situation deteriorated to prevent the Church of Order from interfering with Iraq. The internal affairs of the elf.
As the saying goes, the best way to prevent others from interfering is to preemptively interfere.
Of course, this guess is as magical as the previous one, without any corroboration, and there is always one of the most critical issues unresolved.
Luther Franz... what is he trying to do?
If the Clovis City riot is to let the Franz family intervene in the security forces in the capital and expand the family's power; then what can he gain by intervening in the Thirteenth Council and even cooperating with a "rebel" like the Truth Society?
Why is an archbishop of a large diocese of the Church of Order so disgusted with the church's meddling in and interfering in secular affairs, even at the expense of personally appearing to vouch for a "suspect" like himself to the Inquisition?
To be honest, Anson actually regretted it; he was obviously dragged into a bigger and bigger conspiracy now, and the most dangerous thing was that he didn't even know where the danger was.
If time could go back to the time before departure, if I could have guessed that this sudden mission was full of problems, if I could have calmed down a little at that time, then...
Well, 80% of them will still agree.
No way, the other party gave too much - even if he didn't agree, the storm division would definitely not be able to withstand the temptation of this level.
At present, he has only managed to break free from the shackles of Major General Ludwig Franz, but facing the two behemoths of the Franz family and the Rune family, he is still the opponent's tool.
The long night gradually passed, An Sen was still sitting in front of the window holding cold coffee, looking at the bright morning sun rising from the east with a complicated expression.
At this moment, the door behind him was pushed open - Lisa in pink pajamas stepped on cotton slippers, holding a Borny rifle in her arms, and walked in while rubbing her eyes.
"Anson, aren't you happy?"
"No, it's just that I haven't slept all night." An Sen smiled relaxedly and put down the cup in his hand: "I drank too much coffee by accident, and I couldn't sleep."
"Anson couldn't sleep because he was thinking about things... right?"
Holding Borny in her arms, Lisa, who was too sleepy to open her eyes just now, suddenly became serious: "Anson's expression is exactly the same as when he was in Thundercastle."
Thunder Fort?
It was probably because of a lack of sleep and a dull mind. An Sen, who frowned slightly, tried hard to recall for a minute before finally remembering that she was talking about the rainy night of the last attack, and then suddenly laughed: "Almost so."
"What's that?"
Lisa, who was wearing cotton slippers, stepped forward and stared at him with wide eyes, as if she would never let him go if she didn't answer.
Seeing the girl's alert appearance as if she was afraid of escaping, An Sen smiled bitterly and answered calmly, "It's nothing, it's just that someone wants me to do something I don't like to do, but I have to do it... it's that simple."
"Well..." Lisa thought hard for a while, then asked:
"Is that person a badass?"
"Absolutely not!"
"Is that person great?"
"Somehow... yes."
"Then why does Anson have to go?"
"Because if you don't go, there will be many, many people injured... just like the one at Thunder Castle."
"So that thing is dangerous?"
"It's really dangerous, just like the Thunder Castle."
"Well……"
Lisa, who was holding Borny, widened her eyes, and looked at him from head to toe very seriously for a while, as if she had considered it very seriously, and said, "If that's the case, let's go!"
"Don't worry about anything, and don't be afraid of danger, because Lisa will protect you!"
It's because I know that you will definitely follow me, so I don't particularly want to go... Anson can only smile bitterly: "Thank you, Lisa."
"Because Lisa is Anson's captain of the guard, the captain's duty is to protect Anson!" Lisa proudly patted Borne in her arms:
"As long as Lisa is here, no one can hurt Anson!"
"That's right." Anson can only agree with a smile: "Both cute and powerful, our Lisa is really amazing!"
"Lisa is not that powerful either." The girl scratched her head shyly:
"Anyway, even if Lisa can't beat a bad guy, with the help of Talia sister, he will definitely be able to beat him."
"Yes, yes, even if Lisa can't beat the guy, as long as Talia is sure... eh?!"
Anson woke up suddenly: "Talia?!"
"Yes, Sister Talia." The girl blinked:
"Didn't Anson see it before?"
"Yes, I have seen it, and I have seen it many times, but..." An Sen, who was shocked, suddenly stuttered:
"What, what is Talia-sister...just help..."
"This is an appointment between Lisa and Sister Talia." The girl tilted her head and pressed her chin with her right index finger in confusion:
"When you encounter a bad guy who can't be beaten, Lisa will ask Sister Talia to defeat it, and watch by herself, so that Lisa can slowly learn how to use her power... Sister Talia said so. "
So... say? !
Why didn't you tell me? !
So Lisa saw all the pictures of herself talking to Talia before, right? !
Or is it that she and Talia have the same vision on both sides, and can see what is happening on each other's side, or they can talk directly over the air... By the way, Talia didn't say anything messy to her, right? !
For a time, Anson's mind exploded into a daze, a certain sense of shame in front of children and the old father's anxiety about the child's bad learning blended with each other. The matter of Archbishop Ts was left behind.
Lisa, who had no idea what he was thinking about, jumped up and down happily and left the room happily: "Lisa is going on an adventure with Anson again, I want to make something delicious for Anson, eat When you're full, Anson won't be afraid anymore..."
………………
On the evening of the 26th of October of the 100th year of the saint's calendar, just before the deadline set by the Church of Order, 5,000 heavily armed Stormtroopers marched down the road towards Iser, who had just ended a civil war. royal court.
In the face of the sudden arrival of the Clovis army, the Iser elf defenders gathered all their troops to defend the city wall on the west side in a panic. nobles and commoners of the city.
Of course, because of the previous civil war and riots, strictly speaking, there are not many "civilians" left in the city at this time, and more of them are aware that the situation is starting to deteriorate, and those who are planning to run away... After being brutally suppressed , After a brief riot, the royal court quickly entered a state of preparation.
At 19:30 on the 26th~www.readwn.com~ After the last messenger who was in charge of sending a message, asking the Iser elf defenders to surrender immediately, was almost blown away by a fireball, Karl immediately issued an order. The order for all the artillery to be in place.
That's right, because of "indigestion" and "physical health" caused by the long journey, Anson Bach is currently in bed, so Chief of Staff Major Carl Bain temporarily took over the command of the Storm Division and served as the Storm Division. the interim teacher.
At the artillery position, Carl Bain, who had put on a gray triangle hat and military coat of the same style as Anson, had his left hand behind his back. The messenger on the side:
"what time is it?"
"Report Deputy... Ah, Chief of Staff!" The nervous messenger bit his tongue: "It's 2:50 now - there's still one minute left before the scheduled start of the battle!"
With a long sigh, Carl raised his right saber above his head and slashed forward:
"The artillery is in place - fire!"
The Battle of Isir's Court begins here.
