"F * ck, here we go again …" Upon seeing the mission prompt, Li Huailin hesitated for a moment before he clicked "No".
"I'm sorry, but I really can't find that person. I have no idea where he was teleported to. Moreover, he's a player, so it's hard for me to bring him here." Li Huailin said. Of course, he didn't know how long it would take for him to return to the other side. If it was a day or two, it would be fine. But if it was a week or two, how long would he have to wait?
"That's true …" Pope Carlo nodded. "But if our church's sacred relic falls into the hands of the Dark Church, that would be terrible."
"Yes." Bishop Drusby said worriedly. "Your Holiness, it's all my fault. I didn't pay attention to it."
"Forget it." Pope Carlo waved his hand. "We can only take it one step at a time. Duke Aquitan, please tell us the location where you found the stone tablet. We will send people to search nearby to see if there's anything."
"That's not a problem." Li Huailin said. "But … what about the bishop of the Blessed City of God's church district?"
"Eh?" Pope Carlo was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect Li Huailin to still have the cheek to mention this after failing his mission. Xiang Lexiang said tactfully, "This is a little troublesome. You see, we originally wanted you to use the merit of retrieving the sacred relic to convince the Holy See Council, but now that the sacred relic hasn't been found, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult to get the council to agree to this. Although we trust you very much, I'm afraid it'll be a little troublesome if you want to become the bishop of the human church district without any merit … "
"Is there any merit mission other than retrieving the sacred relic?" Li Huailin asked after some thought.
"This …" Pope Carlo pondered for a moment. "I thought about it. I don't have any important missions in the near future, except for this matter …"
"You can't send me to a remote church to be a bishop and then transfer back after two or three years," Li Huailin said.
"…" Pope Carlo had thought about it before. Didn't most bishops of the Church start to accumulate their reputation slowly like this? It was only because of his good relationship with Li Huailin that the newcomer Li Huailin gave Li Huailin a chance to ascend to the throne. Now that Li Huailin hadn't grasped the opportunity, this … this was going to be difficult.
"How about this? You can't make a decision on your side anyway. Why don't you call for a meeting and let me talk to them myself? I think the members of the council here should be very reasonable." Li Huailin said after some thought. Right now, his Favorability with the Church was quite good, but when it came to the individual members of the council, it might not be as good. Li Huailin decided to try to make all the council members feel grateful to him, and see if he could directly become a bishop without doing any quests.
"This … this is a little against the rules." Pope Carlo said hesitantly, but Li Huailin listened to the other party's words and felt that it was negotiable.
"I say, Brother Pope, you see, I'm indebted to you, right?" Li Huailin hurriedly said earnestly, "I almost knocked your teeth out. Look, I've worked hard enough, haven't I?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Pope Carlo said awkwardly. Although it was against the rules, Li Huailin was too good to him. There was no one who would pick him up and beat him up like this. After some thought, he nodded. "Alright, I'll help you again."
"Very good, very good." Li Huailin almost wanted to hit him again, but it was good that the pope agreed.
"It just so happens that our meeting is about to be held because of the problem with Bishop Drgusby," Pope Carlo said. Pope Carlo said, "What you did this time was too thoughtless, Bishop Degusby."
"Yes, Your Holiness." Bishop Drgusby admitted his mistake without any intention of quibbling.
"This matter has been reported to the meeting. It is estimated that there will be a formal meeting to discuss this issue in the next two days. Since the Duke of Aquitan has requested it, I can make an exception and bring you to the meeting, but I don't know if they will allow it. If the members of the meeting stop you from entering on the day of the meeting, I can't do anything about it." Pope Carlo did not say everything, but it was enough.
"Sure, sure. That's it." Li Huailin was very confident in this aspect. "When is it held?"
"The latest is the day after tomorrow. Usually, it's tomorrow," Pope Carlo replied. Pope Carlo replied, "If Your Grace is free, you can take a stroll around Brasov. Of course, we can also arrange a place for you to rest."
"Oh, it's alright. I have something to do here," Li Huailin said. "Tomorrow? Then I'll come again tomorrow at noon?"
"Of course. Usually, the meeting is held in the afternoon or evening," Pope Carlo nodded.
"Alright, see you tomorrow." Li Huailin waved his hand and left.
After walking out of the cathedral in Brasov, Li Huailin looked at the time. It was almost seven o 'clock in the evening. After thinking about it, Li Huailin decided to check out the battle between the Demons and the undead. By now, the army of the Demons should be near Matthew's territory. Although he had asked Matthew to handle it, it was also related to his own situation, so he had to pay attention to it and be ready to respond at any time.
Using the teleportation circle, Li Huailin arrived at Molten Iron City. Although he could directly teleport to Soudeis, he could only use it three times a day. If possible, Li Huailin would not waste it. After putting on the cloak, Li Huailin directly entered the undead camp. After waiting for a while, Soudeis heard the news and rushed over.
"Your Highness, you're here." Soudeis seemed to be dealing with something. He rushed back in a hurry.
"What's wrong?" Li Huailin asked.
"The teleportation circle here has just been set up, but there are some problems. I was just waiting for them to adjust it. It's almost ready to use," Soudeis said. After all, this was the main task assigned by Li Huailin. Naturally, he would do it himself and strive to complete it as soon as possible.
"The teleportation circle is set up? That way, we can quickly receive news from the Demons, "Li Huailin said.
"Yeah, it's very difficult to receive news without the teleportation circle. We can only rely on telepathy, but it's very difficult to contact them. It's much more convenient now," Soudeis said.
"What's the news from the Demons?" Li Huailin asked.
"I've already sent someone. I'm guessing the latest news will be back soon. Your Highness, you've come at the right time," Soudeis said.
Li Huailin sat down and waited for a while. As expected, a soldier immediately came over and reported, "Report! Lord Soudeis, Your Highness, this is someone sent by Lord Dennis. He has the latest emergency to report. "
The messenger pointed to an Undead soldier next to him. This was probably the first time the Undead soldier had seen Li Huailin. He was also a little curious as to why this man in a black robe was sitting on Lord Soudeis's seat. However, he was not stupid. He would not ask such a question at this time. According to the grapevine, their Lord Dennis had already taken refuge with a powerful person. Now, it seemed that this powerful person was the one in front of him.
When the messenger next to him called him Your Highness, the Undead soldier immediately shouted, "Your Highness, I'm Andalda, the captain of the second reconnaissance team under Lord Dennis. I have something important to report to you."
"Oh?" Li Huailin was a little surprised. This captain called Andalda looked quite smart. He was not like an ordinary Undead soldier, whose AI was seriously flawed. Basically, he was a piece of meat with low intelligence. However, Li Huailin did not pay too much attention to him. He asked, "Tell me, what's the situation?"
"The Demons' army has officially entered Mattheon's territory. They have arrived at the main city of Mattheon's territory, Belokeri City," Andalda said.
"So, their target is Mattheon's territory?" Soudeis asked. "Your Highness is right."
"But has Mattheon's territory been exposed?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes. Just this afternoon, the Demons' army asked Mattheon to enter the city to rest, but Mattheon refused. It was not a big deal, because a Lord has the right to refuse an army entering his city. However, the Demons' army immediately showed the Demons' Emperor, Baizera's order. They asked Mattheon to let the Demons' army enter the city to rest," Andalda said.
"Oh, it seems like Baizera is testing us … or has it been confirmed?" Li Huailin asked. "What about Mattheon's side?"
"Mattheon refused again. He did not allow the Demons' army to enter the city. However, he asked the commander of the Demons' army, Gordon, to enter the city to talk to him," Andalda said.
"Hehe … Mattheon seems to want to capture the highest commander of the Demons, but it is a little too obvious," Li Huailin said.
"Yes, General Gordon also refused immediately. Then, the two sides began to confront each other. Until now, the two sides have not officially started a war," Andalda said. "That's the situation."
"I think the Demons' army is also waiting for Baizera's final order. Baizera seems to be hesitating," Soudeis said. "Your Highness, what should we do?"
"Hmm …" Li Huailin thought for a moment. "Such a happy scene. We should go and have a look. Soudeis, get ready to go."
"Now?" Soudeis said, a little surprised.
"Of course," Li Huailin waved his hand.
