Chapter 1422 The Dark Side of Kama Taj (Second)
Laura Crawford closed the thick file with endless enthusiasm, as if she had read a wonderful novel, and she was constantly looking forward to seeing the sequel.The Holy See has always been a place where money and power meet.No matter how derogatory money and wealth are in the teachings, the conspiracy and power rent-seeking flowing in the Vatican court will never be separated from the clanging gold coins, otherwise the Medici family would not have given birth to so many popes.Even in the current era when the influence and wealth of the Holy See are declining sharply, the Vatican still has unparalleled influence.

It is not surprising to have heretical tendencies in such an environment, what is important is the degree of heresy and what kind of heresy. - Colluding with wizards is definitely the most serious heresy, even the pope will be deposed or excommunicated - now she holds a copy of the veto of the legitimacy of Pope John XII, and the Pope of all subsequent dynasties Legitimacy documents.Combined with the rich life of John XII who had affairs with widows, his father's mistress and even his niece, even during the reign of the so-called "whore regime", this document may slightly shake the Vatican's attitude towards the world of God. dominion.

But Laura Crawford was not foolish enough to think that this document could veto the rule of the Holy See.After all, Leo VIII, the "antipope" appointed by Holy Roman Emperor Otto I at that time, had been deposed, and then Benedict V was deposed, and John XIII was supported by force by Otto I who led the army into Italy. From then on, the confrontation with the monarchy began. The "antipope" is the orthodoxy of the Vatican. It is meaningless for the Roman people to vote for the pope.

The current Vatican is a neutral area, the product of peace talks, concessions, negotiations and negotiations among many countries.Even if it is discovered that there are so many priests in the Holy See who like little boys, secular laws cannot confront theocracy and shake the sanctity of the Vatican, and nothing can be done with a document of unknown origin.Even so, these stories fascinate Lara Croft, and her favorite stories are this kind of hidden dust of history that is not recorded in steles and documents.

But the file in her hand is only the first half volume that has been sorted out, and the second half volume is still stored in the bookcase.She waited until the woman had finished her cup of hot cocoa before getting back into her sleeping bag. "I need to borrow your ball of wool, and your watch," she said, holding up her notebook.As early as when the materials were moved here, Laura Crawford made notes in the notebook, because she had expected that one day she would return to this bookshelf and read the file, "Can you help me?" Am I holding the other end of the ball? I'll be right back, I promise!"

The woman turned her silly staring blindfold to Lara Croft, who felt a chill in her heart.

"Of course," she said. "Can you bring me a bag of marshmallows when you get back?"

"If we can get out," Lara Croft said somewhat seriously.She didn't put herself in the position of the woman's guardian, or even cheat on the woman because she was mentally ill.Lord Croft's title and tutoring made her refuse to make promises she couldn't keep. "I promise you, I'll be back in 3 minutes. By the time we get out of here, I'll buy you a whole bunch of marshmallows and stuff your room with them."

Thanks to her excellent sense of direction, Lara Croft quickly found where she and the woman were stationed.Although she felt that she had walked a long way, in fact, excluding those narrow stone passages and the gap between the two bookshelves, the straight-line distance between her and that woman would not exceed 200 meters.Here she also found some supplies that she had missed in her panic—including a half-disassembled Eileen Chocolat, a sealing gauze and a bundle of duct tape, and a small metal bag to hang an ice pick from her waist. Ring——Winston didn't know what kind of adventure his young lady was going to participate in, so he entrusted the ice ax and ice ax accessories to the Imperial Guards and sent them to Karma Taj. This metal ring was one of the many accessories.

It was useless, but Lara Croft stuffed it into her pocket anyway.These metal rings made of special alloys are extremely strong and wear-resistant, and can even be used as safety hooks for rock climbing, so the price is extremely expensive, even if she is as rich as she is, it is impossible to discard these things casually.

"Well, you came at a good time."

Lara Croft picked up the windproof matches in the shockproof box on the ground.The candlesticks installed on the bookshelves have been extinguished, and the entire row of bookshelves is shrouded in darkness.The library isn't actually completely dark, it's just that there are too many candlesticks going out, and neither the ghost cleaners nor the giant robots are clearly characters who can light candles.

The frost-covered hydraulics were undisturbed, and the heavy armor and constant heating kept the oil from congealing.The explosion-proof door slowly retracted into the wall, allowing the blood-coagulated low temperature to slowly flow out from the gap in the door, and immediately condense some residual moisture into ice fog when encountering the air with a higher temperature outside.Many magic props that were originally stored in the temple have been transferred here. These collections are generally useless and dangerous. Taking them away from the three temples means that the emperor will disperse Kama Taj The first step in regaining power.

With the help of the Supreme Sorcerer, this step was smoothly transitioned without raising any objections.

The emperor was not in a hurry to go down the passage and go deep underground.He first counted all the magical props, from the cursed, fist-sized Kadavus crystal carved into the shape of a skull, the shadow scimitar that can cut souls, to the [-]th-century-made one that can appear in different places at the same time He took an inventory of everything to make sure that none of the dangerous assets belonging to Kama Taj were lost—in view of the trouble the old guys from the mystic family caused him, the emperor would not give them any more money. Any tolerance, and at the same time would not give them any leeway in the evaluation - he did not believe that they just opened the library's defenses a little bit, allowing those extradimensional spiritual entities who had been hungry for power to break into the real universe, he wanted to make sure everything Everything is under control.

In the past he compromised with Karma Taj's millennia-old sovereignty, but not in the future.

A special knight army will be stationed in Karma Taj for a long time, completely fortifying Karma Taj, completely dismantling and reorganizing the power structure spontaneously formed due to the reluctance of the supreme mage to manage, and forming a set that is more suitable for the future. Vertical management system of the war situation.In other words, Karma Taj will expand while laying off staff, cut off the burden of the millennium to make it more flexible, and clenched its fists to make it more powerful-he did so with confidence at the time, because the supreme mage had already put those The list of mystics stationed on alien planets to monitor the development of local witchcraft and their secret contact information were handed over to him. Some mystics even fought for several years in the gap between dimensions, conducting the most radical and dangerous wars in places far away from the earth. theoretical research.

These people are the dark side of Karma Taj, and they are also the emperor's confidence to win Karma Taj.Except for the commander of the guards Constantine and the regent Victor von Doom, no one can know this news, even Master Hamil does not know why he has the confidence to put all the elders of the mystic family under house arrest, even at the risk of Bloodshed.After confirming that everything was safe and sound, the emperor also breathed a sigh of relief to those old guys. He could temporarily confirm that those people would not destroy Karma Taj for their own selfish desires, that is to say, they would still be alive before the Supreme Mage returned.
