The Glory of the Seven Gods of Ice and Fire

Chapter 22 The Beginning of the Riot

Chapter 22 The Beginning of the Riot
  Talking face to face at this distance, Hugo could clearly see the Archbishop's trembling double chin, as well as the fat skin and tender flesh. It can only be said that the nickname given to the Archbishop by the citizens of King's Landing was so appropriate. But compared to this scene, it was obviously more important to deal with the Archbishop's words.

Although the Fat Archbishop looks bloated and obese, the fact that he can obtain such a status in the Seven Gods Religion, which is full of internal strife and disputes, is enough to show that he is not as useless as he appears.

From the beginning of the conversation, while the Archbishop was communicating various materials and power with Hu Ge, he had been trying to find out Hu Ge's information in a roundabout way, constantly creating language traps for Hu Ge, making Hu Ge speak every word. You must think twice before uttering a word.

Hu Ge also had to follow the Archbishop's words and say that he was the one who came to visit. He must not follow the Archbishop's rhythm. Even if he was made angry, he had to go along with it. The conversation also went smoothly. Except for the obvious things, he kept all the information that needed to be hidden, but it also made him very tired. This guy who fought his way out of the brutal struggle within the Seven Gods Religion was really difficult to deal with.

However, he is the one who has the upper hand after all. Providing support to the expeditionary force is an order from the Iron Throne. As a puppet of the Iron Throne, the Archbishop must obey the orders of the Iron Throne. Even if he is not willing, he must hand over everything he should. come out.

However, perhaps because of his age, after a period of "saw-sawing" with Hugo, the Archbishop showed a somewhat tired look. After those routine clichés and the separation of due benefits, the main thing was finally After finishing their work, the relationship between the two parties also eased. Then it was like a truce. The two parties started chatting. Most of their chats were about the Seven Gods Religion. Fortunately, Hu Ge also knew all the classics of the Seven Gods Religion. There is research, so you won’t be left in the cold.

"Lord Hu Ge, do you have anything else to do when you come to King's Landing? I will also help you deal with it so that you don't have to run too many times."

These words immediately cheered up Hugo's tired spirit, and he finally found a way to talk, "That is indeed true, Lord Archbishop, I noticed that there are many devout believers in King's Landing who want to join the great cause of the expedition, so I I believe that they should be given the opportunity to join, and it would be best for the Archbishop to personally give these participants seven-pointed stars to show their recognition. For example, among my entourage, there is a leader of the King's Landing community, and they want to To join the great cause of the expeditionary force.”

"That Reg, right? Lord Hu Ge, I know his name, but from the information I know, this man is not a devout believer, but a gang leader."

The Archbishop said with a smile. Looking at this expression, Hu Ge really wanted to punch him. The exchange just now told him that this expression meant that the Archbishop wanted to do something bad.

"Even the gang leaders have their hearts set on the Seven Gods, don't they? Your Lord Archbishop, and when these devout people join the expeditionary force, they will also make a generous donation to the church."

Hu Ge suddenly talked about the matter of worship. He didn't want to talk to the fat man in front of him anymore, so he might as well be more direct. The Archbishop was also stunned by Hu Ge's direct speech, and then joy appeared in his eyes. On the face.

"The church is willing to accept everyone who wants to repent. Lord Hu Ge, this has nothing to do with wealth. However, wealth is the root of some activities after all. For the church's better activities in the future, I think we need to discuss it in detail."

After hearing the Archbishop's statement, Hu Ge tried his best not to let the disdain appear on his face. This church is really rich... and he doesn't even bother to pretend. No wonder the old sparrow despises them so much.

And Hu Ge also knows that there is a reason for the church to be like this. After all, the Church of the Seven Gods in King's Landing is just a puppet of the Iron Throne. They can only make money. Anyway, the Iron Throne takes care of everything, so why care about reputation? Making money while in office - this is why some citizens of King's Landing look down on the church so much and have almost no awe. How can they still be in awe when they see the church's sloppy behavior every day? Distance produces beauty, and there must be distance.

In this way, the two of them spent some time reaching an agreement to divide the spoils, while the seven-faced god silently watched the conversation between the two. This conversation had been seen countless times by the seven gods.

When it comes to interests, the Archbishop is very difficult to deal with. This difficulty makes Hugo a little confused. Why does a person like him care so much about this money? Later he learned that due to the church system, high-ranking priests cannot obtain interests. The means are very limited, and the same is true for the Archbishop. Of course, he must seize this opportunity.

But for Hu Ge, it doesn't matter. If the Archbishop wants it, then give it to the Archbishop. Anyway, the most important thing for him is to take people away. He needs people, and the Archbishop needs money. The two sides cooperate and complement each other.

After reaching a happy division of the spoils, the two left the Cathedral of Baelor together. At this time, the Archbishop became kind-hearted and very friendly compared to his previous difficult appearance.

"Let's stop here, Lord Archbishop. Thank you very much. You see, if you stay outside, the crowd will cause a commotion." The appearance of the Archbishop caused the people and pilgrims in the square to kneel down, and it caused a stir. Commotion, Hugo advised.

"Indeed, Lord Hu Ge, then let's say goodbye here." Archbishop Shunpo said, with an expression on his face that made it impossible to tell that he had been talking nonsense with Hu Ge for a long time.

And just when the two were about to say goodbye and prepare for the next thing, a sudden change occurred.

"Kill that Hugo!"

With the sudden shout, everyone was stunned and confused. However, as the crossbow arrows successfully hit the two acolytes, the crowd became chaotic as if it exploded.

Among the exploding crowds, a group of civilians dressed in various costumes took out daggers, clubs and short spears from their waists and rushed towards Hu Ge. They did not forget to shout "Kill that Hu Ge!"

"Protect Lord Hugo!" Canatier immediately pulled out the sword from his waist and guarded Hugo. Then Hugo's followers and Reg's gang reacted and quickly lined up in front of Hugo. Array.

In sharp contrast to Hu Ge's subordinates who were still in order, the church members looked extremely panicked. The archbishop had obviously never experienced such a scene, and his face was full of confusion. The priests quickly surrounded the archbishop and retreated. He went to the Great Cathedral of Baelor and closed the door in front of Hugo. Because the priests' movements were so fast, when Hugo reacted, the archbishop was surrounded and sent behind the door, and the church door was closed.

"I..." Hu Ge wanted to say something, but in the end he felt that those words were too bad and finally swallowed them. He just pulled out his sword and touched the chainmail under his clothes.

"Follow me!"

Hu Ge yelled and was the first to rush forward. He had some emotions that needed to be vented, and he had never been one to hide behind his subordinates. His ability to survive until now was all due to his swords and swords.

The first person Hugo faced was a guy whose entire face was rotten due to syphilis under his hood. In disgust, Hugo slashed his sword into the guy's face, ending his miserable life.

The stick hit Hu Ge in the face, but then Hu Ge's sword moved away. Instead, he gave the man a kick and kicked him over. Then Hu Ge kept swinging his sword, hitting the two guys who wanted to sneak attack. There were wounds on his body.

Beside Hugo, Canatier's black sword was waving continuously. The people who attacked him were just some urban thugs and could not do anything to the black sword.

On the other side, the battle between Reg and his men and the attackers was a typical gang fight scene. The two sides beat each other with sticks and fists, leaving blood and flesh everywhere, but no one was killed.

After cutting down several urban thugs and making them cower and retreat aside, Hugo decided to fight quickly and could no longer waste time. His eyes kept scanning among the enemies, trying to find the enemy's leader. .

And he did soon see a man with a gold chain hanging around his neck, a pretty good sword in his hand, and several guards wearing chainmail. Obviously, this guy was the leader.

Hu Ge immediately attacked this person. Some gangsters stood in front of Hu Ge, but Hu Ge easily killed them. "Canantiel! Come here, their heads are here!"

Canatier immediately led people to attack. With his actions, the gang leader also became chaotic, and Hugo was able to come to the leader.

The leader immediately grabbed a handful of sand from the ground and threw it at Hu Ge's face, but Hu Ge had already taken precautions. This was a trick he had already encountered before. Hu Ge raised his head slightly and let the sand fall on his neck.

These guys are very good at fighting in the narrow confines of the city, but now they are in a wide square, and the fighting ability of these thugs is also very pathetic. At the beginning, the thugs who besieged Hugo were several times his number, but As the fighting progressed, people continued to flee.

Finally, as Hu Ge kicked the leader in front of him and put his sword on the guy's neck, the battle came to an end. When the thugs saw that the leader was caught, they dispersed in a rush, their sticks and swords scattered. The ground was covered, and some people took off their armor from under their clothes and threw it on the ground.

"Reg, come and see who this guy is?"

He asked his entourage to hold down the person on his body, and Hu Ge asked Reg to ask who this person was. He was a local snake in King's Landing, and he must have the most information. Reg also walked over quickly, and when he saw the person in front of him, he was stunned.

"Harlan? It's you? Why did you attack Lord Hugo? Don't you know he is the Chosen One?"

"Fuck you, Reg, you actually joined the bastard who came to replace us, but don't be complacent for too long, it won't be long before you all die."

The leader of the attackers who was recognized screamed. Seeing this, Hu Ge cast a questioning look at Reg. Reg looked at this look and his head shrank, remembering how Hu Ge had just chopped melons and vegetables. He cut down the thugs one by one and said quickly, "This guy is also a gang leader and my enemy. Lord Hu Ge, this has nothing to do with me. I can't help my enemy."

Just when Reg finished speaking, a lot of shouts suddenly came from under the hills, and the shouts were mixed with screams. This made everyone present look away, and Harlan, who was pressed to the ground, had a look on his face. The above shows the crazy color before death.

"Hahaha, it's starting. You foreign bastards, your end is coming soon."

Harlan's words were naturally met with a punch and a kick, and Hugo's expression became more solemn. His intuition told him that it was best to leave the city now, or he had to leave immediately!

"Don't worry about that guy, let's go and hurry to the nearest city gate."
