"Riley, there's something I want you to do."
Inside the Temple, Dean called Riley who was accompanying Barton: "Help me go to the military region and pick up a person. His name is' Joseph 'and his rank shouldn't be high. Go to the elder Hawkeye of the 9th region and ask him to give you detailed information. In addition, ask him to send people to assist you in this matter. Be sure to pick up this person safely.
Riley bowed his head: "Yes."
"Don't pick up the wrong person." Dean looked at him and handed him a letter: "Help me pass this to Hawkeye."
"Yes." Riley bowed his head.
"This is your Paladin badge. You don't need to sneak in and out of the Holy Church." Dean threw him a blue badge: "I know what your wish is. I'll let you fulfill your wish after you finish this matter."
Riley's body slightly trembled: "Yes!"
Dean got up and came to the entrance of the Temple. He saw Barton practicing his swordsmanship in front of the grass target. He called out to him. Barton heard the call and immediately stopped. He turned around and put away the wooden sword. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and trotted over the steps. He came to Dean and asked: "Master, are you looking for me?"
"I haven't given you any gifts after following me for so long." Dean took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from Barton's forehead: "I have something for you. Come with me."
Barton was moved as he looked at Dean who was carefully wiping the sweat from his forehead. Although he felt that Dean was very different from before but there was no difference in the way Dean treated him.
"Young Master, you've already given me the position of Pope. I can't take anything else from you," Barton quickly said.
Dean handed him the handkerchief: "Let's take a look."
Barton took the handkerchief and slightly clenched it. He followed Dean into the hall.
Dean came to the desk, opened the drawer and took out a black wooden box: "There is a rare and precious parasitic soul worm inside. It's called 'The Listener'. I asked someone to find it for you. Now that you are in a high position, you will encounter hostility from all directions in the future. You have to improve your strength. Are you willing to use it?"
Barton was dumbfounded. He was no longer an ignorant and inexperienced person. When he was an apprentice knight, he already knew about the existence of magic marks, as well as the differences in levels. And the rare Parasitic Soul Worm was basically the best magic mark! As for the more powerful legendary Parasitic Soul Worm, it only existed in the legend, and no one had ever seen it. He did not expect that Dean would quietly prepare such a big gift for him!
"Yes, of course I'm willing!" Barton was grateful in his heart, but then he thought of something and said, "Such a precious magic mark, do you really want to give it to me? If it is wasted …"
"You are my brother. If I don't give it to you, who else would I give it to?" Dean patted his shoulder: "In the future, if we defeat the inner wall and get a legendary Parasitic Soul Worm, then I'll give it to you."
Barton's eyes were slightly moist. He lowered his head so that Dean wouldn't see him. But his heart was moved beyond words. After a moment, he took a deep breath and said: "I'm already very satisfied to get this!"
Dean handed him the black wooden box: "You can use the resources to upgrade the magic mark. There should be a lot of God's blessings stored in the Holy Church."
Barton nodded and held the wooden box tightly.
At the same time, there was a fierce debate in the conference room of the military headquarters in the west of the commercial district.
"How dare the Holy Church do this! They are openly slandering Commander Bryson! Is the new Pope's brain kicked by a pig?! "
"The Holy Church is ready to declare war on us! Humph, they actually found such a poor excuse!"
"Sir, we swear to defend you!"
A group of generals were filled with righteous indignation. Some of the hot-tempered ones even slapped the table.
Bryson sat on the left side of the seat of honor with a gloomy expression. He didn't expect that the Vatican would attack them so soon after the new Emperor was appointed. Shouldn't they focus on dealing with the voices of the rebels within the Vatican? Moreover, out of the three commanders, he was chosen. No matter what the outcome was, it would be an irreparable loss to his personal reputation.
"Commander Bryson." Lorenzo who was next to him turned to look at him. His eyes were deep as if he could see the depths of Bryson's heart. But Bryson calmly looked back at him. There was no fear in his eyes. Lorenzo slowly said: "We believe that you won't collude with the dark believers. The Holy Church didn't discuss the news with us in advance. They should be ready to seize you."
Bryson's eyes flashed: "If I'm guilty, I'm willing to bear it alone!"
"No!" One of the generals immediately stood up and shouted: "You are the commander-in-chief of our military region. How can you let the Holy Church put you on trial? Who do they think they are? I don't believe it!"
"That's right!" Someone immediately agreed. "It's ridiculous that the Holy Church is slandering you! They want to put you on trial? They are overestimating themselves! "
Lorenzo nodded slightly: "Yes, you represent our entire military region. We won't let you bear it alone. No matter what evidence the Holy Church has, we must make them give us a reasonable explanation. This is openly undermining the prestige of our military region!"
Bryson didn't speak. He knew that his identity was too embarrassing at this time. Not speaking was the best way.
"If the Holy Church wants to put the commander-in-chief on trial, they will have to ask the sword in my hand!"
"I don't believe that the Holy Church dares to go to war with our military region!"
"This order was issued by the new Pope. Hmph! Most of them want to step on Commander Bryson's shoulder to deter others!"
Lorenzo saw that the generals were getting emotional. He raised his hand and said: "Immediately send someone to the Holy Church to ask about this matter. Also tell them that they won't have a good result if they start a war with our military region."
"Commander, I'm willing to go myself!"
"Commander, I'll go!"
Several generals immediately raised their hands.
Lorenzo glanced at the female generals and said: "Loraine, you go. You have a meticulous mind so it's best if you go. Remember, don't be too tough and don't be weak!"
"Yes!" The female general immediately stood up.
At the same time, Riley arrived at the 9th region. He handed the letter to Hawkeye. Hawkeye opened the letter and quickly read it.
Riley quietly looked at him.
