Sword of Daybreaker

In the military area of ​​Cecil, the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Bureau, the body of Leymont was quickly sent to Gao Wen.

The regional bishop of the southern parish died in a strange state. He had almost no trauma other than the bruises and dirt left in the run, and the death was caused by some kind of "high fever" from his head. The eyelids of the regional bishop have been burned into two black lacquered holes, and the dry cokeed eye skin is in a disgusting state close to the eye socket of his skull, and his brain... seems to have been burnt It is gray.

"We found him in a mountain road in the dark mountains," Solderlin reported about what he knew. "It was already dead when it was found. There were no traces of fighting around, no residual magical fluctuations, and the cause of death. As you can see, the brain burned to ashes... but I have never seen any curse or magic effect like this."

Gao Wen squatted down and carefully examined the situation of the bishop of the Holy Light. When he reached into the eye socket of Leymont, the amber next to him couldn’t help but make a disgusting voice: "Oh... you are too disgusting..."

Gao Wen didn't take care of the amber, but it was stained with some ashes. He gently rubbed his fingertips twice, and a little golden light flashed through the ashes.

"It is the reverberation of the Holy Light, which is emitted from the brain... This bishop is burned to death by his own light," Gao Wen frowned. "But why?"

Amber looked seriously at the Hu’s analysis: “Is it because he fled on the battlefield, contrary to the doctrine of the Church of the Light, who did not know which doctrine, and then ran into the mountains and could not stand the condemnation in the heart. Explosion in conscience?"

Gao Wen looked up and took a look at the amber: "Do you believe this yourself?"

Heti directly ignored the analysis of Amber's Hu, and stood beside Gao Wenwen and asked: "Ance, what can you see?"

"I can't see it. Except for the cause of death caused by the anti-canopy of the Holy Light, there is no trace left on him... but it is not a little idea." Gao Wen clap his hands and stand up. "The Holy Light is burning the brain." This proves that the initial out of control started from the brain, which reminds me of a group of people..."

Hetty looked at Gao Wen’s expression and suddenly reacted: “The sleeping person?”

"It seems that the cultists have not stopped, and in the field we don't know, they are always active," Gao Wen said in an unexpected tone. Since the Ansu civil war has already had the shadow of all things, now It’s not unthinkable to have a sleepless person on the battlefield in the South, although he wonders why the eternal sleepers “help” the Cecils to kill an intruder, but this does not affect his continued doing his own thing,” Send the body and other bodies to the incinerator and burn them thoroughly."

Two soldiers came in and carried away the body of Leymont, and the amber on the side looked at the blessed bishop of the Holy Light and sighed: "A regional bishop... it’s so dead... saying that you are talking to the Holy Light Church. It’s completely opposite.”

"Their bishops led twelve knights to Cecil to negotiate with me and asked me to hand over the civilians in the city. From that moment on, they would declare war," Gao Wen said unconsciously. "And even if they don't have this today, I will have to be opposed to them sooner or later. You should know the laws enforced by Cecil. It is impossible for the Holy Lights who are increasingly on the path of extreme expansion to accept the 'Government Office law is higher than the church. 'This kind of rules.'

Hetty recalled the battle report sent by Carmel before, and suddenly showed a thoughtful look: "Speak up... The bishop and the Knights he led this time, I am afraid that there is no intention to fight with us. The bishop The argument is to come and negotiate with the lord and ask us to hand over the asylum's 'heresy'. I suspect that their purpose in the beginning is to just take the ancestor out and then temporarily hold you. When the time comes, they should look for it. The reason for retreating is that after the rules of the church and the nobility are rubbed, gold and silver and some land are used for compensation, which can be covered. And I guess, according to the plan of the Earl of Horsman and the Church of the Light, Cecil It will be the absolute failure of this war. The Holy Light Church is afraid to wait for our compensation."

Before Heti was busy dealing with the information from all parties, his mind was not concentrated on it. At this time, everything was temporarily settled. She suddenly wanted to understand that the "Southern Parish Bishop" led twelve Holy See knights to Sethi. The real purpose of "respecting", and Gao Wen’s reply is to make her expression subtle: "It is obvious that they are only just dragging me, can they still plan to capture this city?" ?"

Heti didn't know what to say: "The result is that they all died here...even the bishops have not survived."

“Remember what I said at the beginning?” Gao Wen glanced at Herti and said, “They can set off this war, but how long it is after the war begins, it’s not that they have the final say.”

Heti thought about Gao Wen’s sentence, and Gao Wen gave her a new order: “Notify Godwin, add the number, the content is that the Church of Light and the Count of Hosman collude... No, it is part of the priest Colluding with Earl of Hosman, plotting to attack Cecil, but because it is too weak, too weak, after the fight with one of our technicians, the whole army is wiped out."

Herti blinked: "...Is this really written?"

Gao Wen nodded: "Just write it, and then publish it in the entire territory, not only in the territory, but also let the army take it and send it to the entire south, so that all literate people in the South have the opportunity to see it. Also remember, definitely It is important to emphasize that 'part of the fallen and corrupted priests and the Count of Hosman colluded together'."

Gao Wen originally wanted to announce that the entire Church of Light was colluding with Earl of Hosman and enemies with Cecil, but he knew that he could not treat the entire Church of the Light as an enemy, at least not now.

The priesthood of the Church of the Light may be corrupted, but the believers of this sect are made up of a large number of people, including one in the consier of Cecil, and about a quarter of the people are Saints. Although the beliefs and advocacy of these general communists may not be so extreme and extreme, if he suddenly declares that the Church of the Light is an enemy, it will inevitably lead to confusion, so he is best to put it at the beginning of public opinion propaganda. The fallen priest is separated from the ordinary believers.

And there is another point. The religion of this world is not only a spiritual sustenance, but their "spirit power" and the gods themselves are real, and even the two are part of productivity and nature, unless the Holy Light Church is like that three. The dark sects are completely distorted and degraded, and they lose their foothold in the normal social order. Otherwise, he cannot use the "faith of the Holy Light" as a target of elimination. What he can destroy is only those priests.

And it must be a corrupt and corrupt official. After all, it is impossible for the entire Church of the Light to have only one Wright Aiweiken?

Just amber said that he was completely opposed to the Church of the Light, and this sentence may not be false, but Gao Wen has his own understanding and arrangement of this sentence.

Herti left and left, and only amber and Gaowen were left in the room. Amber pondered for a long time in that person. Suddenly he remembered a detail from Gao Wen’s assignment to Herti: "Ah! You just Said to let the army send things to the entire south... Is the war not over yet?"

Gao Wen glanced at Amber: "When did I say that the war is over?"

"But we won on all battlefields," Amber scratched his hair. "The Count of Hosman in the north is dead. His army is also scattered. The Earl of Peibo in the west is also dead. I heard that I have escaped. There are fewer people. Even the bishops of the Church of the Light are dead... I heard that many prisoners have been arrested on the front lines of the north and west. Many of them are nobles from the South. In normal circumstances, this war is not equal to playing. Is it finished? Then you should negotiate with the families of the aristocratic prisoners and ask for money to get the land..."

Amber looked at Gao Wen’s face with a smile and a smile. The tone was getting lower and lower. Finally, he finally stopped slowly. His face showed a horrified expression: “Mom, you don’t want to stop?”

"I have said long ago that this is a war to reunite the South, and I don't want the former aristocrats to separate and rely on fragile loyalty and vassal relations to maintain the integration situation, so I have been from the beginning I didn’t plan to ask for a 'ransom,' and I didn’t plan to negotiate,” Gao Wen said with a serious expression. “The coalition of Count Horsman is indeed broken, but remember, they are just scattered, not disappearing, not surrendering. Instead, they ran away from the battlefield. They did not become the population of Cecil, nor the nutrients of the land in the south. And the captives who were captured...the families behind them, their castles, their manors, They are still in the territory of their respective duli, and all this is still there. As long as those routing troops return to these places, these places are still a divided aristocratic territory, not the land of Cecil."

Having said that, Gao Wen emphasized in a word: "In the south, there is only one Cecil collar."

"You shouldn't plan..." Amber couldn't believe to look at Gao Wen's eyes. "Kill all the aristocratic families in the South..."

"Of course I will not kill them, at least not directly kill them, because the social order will collapse, and whether I want to admit it, the nobles and their vassal 'upper class' are the main sources of intellectuals at present. I have to use this group and must use their power," Gao Wen said. "But I still have to 'destroy' them and destroy their systems and foundations... After that, everyone will be glorious and self-sufficient. Cecil citizens."

Speaking of this, he sighed slightly: "I hope that every Southern aristocrat and its vassals can accept this arrangement, but if they can't accept it... I hope at least the incinerator will be enough."

Amber's face gradually appeared a confused expression, and in the end it was a sudden excitement.

When Gao Wen saw this, he couldn't help but smile: "Can I understand what I said?"

"I don't listen!" Amber reached out and grabbed his ear. "What you said is not difficult. To die is to scare people!"

Gao Wen smiled and reached out and pressed the amber hair. The height of this short melon was so good that he put his hand on it just right.

Then he turned and looked at the setting sun that had gradually sunk outside the window.

The Philip Knight should have set off with his orders, and the cleaning of the South has begun.
