Civilization Guardian Front

"First, Your Majesty, please set up parishes for us refugees from foreign countries, build churches and assign priests, so that the dead can rest in the ground."

"no problem."

Gui Nila agreed without hesitation.

For her, who is the leader of the God of Tears Church, this kind of thing is easy.

"What about another request?"

"Second, in the future, if I lead the battle group to capture a territory that is not directly under the direct jurisdiction of Yi, nor is it legally owned by your faction's allies, I hope you can recognize it and send an envoy there."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Conquer? You are really ambitious. You actually plan to seize the territory by force and become an independent lord..."

Gui Nila raised her eyebrows slightly, showing a rare look of surprise.

The idea of ​​the young man in front of her was bolder than she expected.

Relying on absolute strength to lay down its own territory, establish an independent small kingdom that is not subordinate to the four countries around the Mediterranean Sea and does not need to be loyal to the lord.

There is no doubt that this is the real reason why the other party is unwilling to accept the canonization.

"Anyone else would think it was a rotten joke. A mob of minionmen, even if there were hundreds of them, wouldn't be able to defeat a baron's knights and army, let alone capture castle."

No matter how weak the baron is, he will have at least one knight, three servant knights, and more than twenty well-equipped professional soldiers under his command. If necessary, he can call two or three hundred militiamen from the villages under his jurisdiction to fight for him.

Speaking of such a military force, there are not many battle groups in the southern border who can fight and win.

What's more, nobles have always had a tradition of forming alliances through marriage, and according to the oath, the superior lord shoulders the responsibility of maintaining the stability of the vassal's territory.Once the situation is critical, if any lord sends a messenger to ask for help, he can quickly find hundreds or thousands of reinforcements.

Even if the volunteers are lucky enough to take down the castle that is easy to defend and difficult to attack before the reinforcements arrive, and face the counterattack of the surrounding aristocratic coalition forces, they can hold on to the city for a month or two without the support of the nearby villages. , the ending is still annihilation of the whole army and death without a whole body.

There will be no punishment other than capital punishment for civilian rebellion.

Whether it is the captives who surrendered or the corpses of those who died in battle, they will be chopped up and fed to pigs afterwards. The only difference is whether the meat is fresh or not.

The fate of rebelling against the church is slightly different. It is tied to the stake and burned alive.

In terms of misery, the two are indistinguishable.

This is why, so far, there have been many volunteer soldiers, adventurers, and mercenary teams who have made their names, but no one has dared to be an enemy of the nobles and the church.

However, Chios is not only thinking about such a dangerous thing, he has even begun to prepare for it...

Obtaining the recognition of the Central Cathedral of Centoria is a crucial step.

As the patriarch of the Church of Tears in the Southern Territory, Gui Nila's views represent the attitude of the church as a whole, and her influence far exceeds that of a king of a country.

If she approves of Chios' occupation of a certain property, sending an envoy there is equivalent to giving her a legal basis to govern the property.

A person with the legal right to rule will no longer be regarded as a commoner, but a legal lord.

Declaring war on it must provide sufficient and legitimate reasons, otherwise it will be regarded as a contempt for the laws of the church and various countries, and it will be immediately sentenced to excommunication, and it will not receive the support of any nobles at home and abroad.

What kind of simple request is this?

It's an extremely rude asking price.

If it wasn't for Chios who made the proposal, Gui Nila would have directly ordered him to be hanged.

"The personal strength and commanding ability you showed in the arena proves that you do have the ability to defeat the nobles and separate one side..."

Gui Nila looked at Chios' handsome profile with great interest.

The eyes that reflected the seven prismatic colors seemed to be able to penetrate the skin of the body, and saw that the depths of the other party's heart were burning violently, which was not inferior to the fire of ambition when she made up her mind to ascend to the highest throne of the Church of Tears.

This man is like a mirror image of her gender.

what...

I really want to keep it for myself.

She couldn't help thinking about it.

But she also understands that if they act rashly, they will become incompatible enemies from now on.

There will never be such a sympathy for each other, the desire to get rid of loneliness, and the idea of ​​blending with each other's soul and flesh.

Love it or hate it.

Only the most extreme options are left to them.

If you want to stop feeling self-pitying, you have to break that mirror with your own hands.

"Oh, what should I do with you..."

Lovingly stroking Chios' cheek, as if she was touching herself, Guinea's eyes were blurred, her tone was gentle and dangerous:

"Should I help you, or should I destroy you before you grow up?"

"It's all up to you to decide."

Chios was calm on the surface, but his muscles were already tensed.

Facing others, Chios is at least [-]% sure to deduce the opponent's thinking, and immediately make tactical adjustments according to the situation.

Only when he takes people of the same type as himself as the object, he can only guess less than half of them...

Because he is a character who often does not play cards according to the rules and catches them off guard.

How the archbishop will react in the next second, Chios really has no idea.

Although his heart was filled with the urge to kiss the other's lips, give up thinking, and become a slave to desire, Chios also tried his best to suppress that crazy idea from overflowing the water.

He knew that the archbishop must be the same.

To put it bluntly, they were actually pretending not to care, and desperately enduring, trying to make the other party bow down and surrender first.

Whoever shows weakness first is the loser.

"Huhu...hehehe~" Gui Nila covered her mouth with a light smile and said:

"It seems that no conclusion can be drawn in a short time."

"Then I trouble you to spend more time thinking about it."

Chios secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the answer is not clear, at least at this stage there is no conflict yet.

Originally, he was ready to use the Eye of Calamity, and even took out [Ragnarok] to release the "Blade of Splendid Starlight", split the Cathedral and the central square into two, and prepared to flee the capital.

Now I can finally relax a little bit.

"Oludana City is full of dangers, and my men are struggling there. Even if you are not my vassal, you must always be careful to avoid arousing suspicion..."

Having said that, the archbishop glanced at the door of the reception room.

"Tomorrow, I will send Alice to serve as the guard of Dade Black's surveillance fortress. If you get the evidence and your deeds are revealed, she will be responsible for picking you up. Of course, if you can't even get the evidence, don't go to her It's embarrassing, just find a place with a good view in Oludana City and commit suicide."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"in addition..."

Gui Nila pressed Chios's chest with one hand, and pressed him against the sofa cushion with force.

The slender white fingers of the other hand climbed up the young man's left wrist little by little, and finally stopped at the ring inlaid with emeralds.

Fingertips scratched the words "Strictly Do Not Block" on the gemstone.

The fiery text flickered briefly and then disappeared.

"Seeking Advice"

It was originally a miracle created by travelers and lost people to take care of each other, but now it is used by the archbishop to set up a secret word for customs clearance.

Chios can be erased with just a little magic power.

But how could he do that...

"When you think of me in the middle of loneliness, you are welcome to come back to Black Iron Palace to find me."

"anytime."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

After talking about important matters, the archbishop still didn't show any intention of stopping, as if there was no one outside the door.

Chios, who has been touched for nearly 10 minutes, even though his concentration is good, still reacts more or less...

He realized that it would be difficult to explain to Alice if this continued.

"There are still distinguished guests waiting in the waiting room. Your Majesty is busy with government affairs, so I won't waste your time here."

"Well, it's a pity, but there are still many opportunities in the future..."

Gui Ni pulled her hands to support the young man's chest and slowly got up, and sat back to her original position.

With a smile on his eyes, he watched Chios smooth out the wrinkles on his clothes. After he finished tidying up, Guinea turned to the door of the living room and said:

"Mr. Alice, come in."

"Yes." Alice immediately pushed the door open and entered.

"Please give me your orders."

Her complexion was as usual, she did not look around the room, but looked directly at the archbishop, slightly lowering her head to show her respect.If it wasn't for the fast opening of the door, the left hand on the end of the sword hilt was gripping very tightly, so there was no flaw at first glance.

hehe~

Gui Nila pursed her lips and smiled, but didn't point it out.

"You will set off tomorrow morning to watch the fortress of Dade Black and take over the highest command. During this period, I will temporarily entrust the duties of guarding the Central Cathedral and commanding the Knights to Sir Eldorie. You only need to concentrate on defending Celine." The monsters in the mine are harassing, just pay attention to the movements of the western nobles."

"Yes, I respect your will."

"In addition, Chios is now secretly working for me. Within the scope of my authority, I allow you to help him as much as possible. The fact that you are closely related has long been known, and even if there is an intersection, it will not arouse much suspicion, but Remember, he's still ostensibly playing a non-political vigilante, so all your actions have to make people believe that the motive is personal friendship, don't get it wrong, or Chios will be killed."

One can imagine how dangerous it is to infiltrate into the center of the noble alliance to investigate.

The distance from Oludana City to the border of the church is more than [-] kilometers. Even if you ride a horse, it will take two or three days. If you bypass the main road, it will take even longer.

If the deeds are revealed, Chios will hardly receive any help from the church forces.

Relying on very limited resources and manpower, he had to evade the day and night raids of the noble allied forces, and fled with difficulty all the way to Dadehaven Surveillance Fortress.

As long as it is discovered once in the process, it is over.

Faced with the encirclement and suppression of knights and troops sent by the surrounding lords, even those with extraordinary strength will eventually die of exhaustion.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to make even a small mistake to put Chios in such a dangerous situation.

Thinking of this, Alice nodded solemnly.

"I understand, Your Majesty."

"very good."

Guinea turned her head to look at Chios, and said in a tone of expectation:

"I'm waiting for good news from you."

"Now, you can go."

...

Go back to the waiting room with Alice to meet Sharon, and talk to Soltilina for a few words, then Chios left the Central Cathedral and walked to the Dirham Restaurant in the West District.

When passing the square, Alice asked unexpectedly:

"I want to know why Miss Sharon became your maid?"

"Of course it's because Master Chios charmed me..."

"Sharon, stop messing around."

Having had the experience of causing misunderstandings in the past two times, it is absolutely impossible for Chios to let his colleagues play on their own this time.

"Sharon is actually the maid of my relative "Le Guin" family. We have known each other for a long time, but because of our different ideas, we gradually drifted apart. It was not until the reunion in a competition recently that we finally settled down.For details, you can ask Ren... no, it would be better to ask Asuna or Li Jie. "

Thinking that Ryan likes to play pranks, if Alice asks Ryan, there is a high probability that she will add fuel to the story, so Chios immediately changed his words.

"In short, Miss Sharon is someone who serves your relatives, it's just that... right?"
