In the face of Prince Richard's threatening interrogation, Abbot Melda's expression changed slightly and said,
"Your Highness, let me remind you that the Northshire Abbey has been suppressing the ancient evil for more than 400 years, even longer than the history of the Lionheart Empire."
Seeing Richard's noncommittal attitude, Dean Melda continued: "For the past four hundred years, every generation of the monastery has been guarding against evil, preventing it from stepping into the human world. You should believe that the nuns of this generation also have the ability to suppress the evil! "
Prince Richard smiled. "Is that so? Merda, I guess your memory is not very good. Let me remind you of a name. Do you still remember Falca? "
Merda's face suddenly changed. This name was taboo in her heart.
Prince Richard said leisurely, "Falca stole the evil soul stone from the Northshire Abbey and successfully brought it out of the Northshire Abbey! How dare you say you have the ability to suppress the evil after such a big problem? "
"Falca … has been publicly executed," Dean Melda said in a shaky voice.
"Are you still trying to deny it?" Prince Richard looked at Gloria. "Coincidentally, this case was handled by the former head of the Royal Knights. Tell me the details, Gloria. "
"Yes, Your Highness."
Gloria's face was expressionless. She ignored the hope in Melda's eyes and said calmly, "Although Falca died, the evil soul stone was not recovered. Instead, it fell into the hands of an 'outsider'. Since the portal talisman has been used, I can't chase that outsider to his world. Mission failed. "
Prince Richard sighed. "What a vicious circle. Falca has been executed, and Gloria has been stripped of her honor as the head of the Royal Knights. Both have paid the price. However, the source of the evil soul stone's leakage is the Northshire Abbey's incompetence! Merda, do you have anything else to say? "
Merda's lips moved, but she could not say a word.
"So, I want you to open the seal of the great mausoleum and let us in to confirm the condition of the seal … Is there a problem?" Prince Richard pressed on.
Merda said in a deep voice, "As I said before, Your Highness can enter the mausoleum if you want, but you have to wait for half a month."
"Ridiculous! The inspection of the seal cannot be delayed. How can I allow you to make all sorts of excuses! Tell me the truth, has the seal been destroyed? "
Prince Richard slapped the table heavily and snapped, "Merda, don't think that you can deceive and confuse us in half a month!"
"No! The seal left by the Lord of Light is still intact! "
Merda said loudly, "Your Highness, the Great Mausoleum has been contaminated by evil energy for many years and has become an extremely dangerous place. It is a paradise for all kinds of undead creatures … If you want to enter, you can only wait until the seal is at its strongest and the evil energy is at its weakest to ensure your safety … which is half a month later."
"What a joke." Prince Richard snorted and stood up proudly. "Are all the strong people in this room just for show? If you're afraid, then I'll take two guards and Gloria to check the seal! "
The faces of all the leaders in the room changed.
Lord Gloria said calmly, "Your Highness, you should know that no one here dares to take the risk and let the direct descendant of the Tibron royal family die in the north."
"So you should support me too, Lord Glendis," Prince Richard said.
Gloria snorted softly. "No, I agree with Merda. The mausoleum is there and will not disappear for no reason. What's wrong with waiting for half a month? The rebel army has taken the capital of the north and is killing the nobles loyal to the empire, causing bloodshed! Every minute we delay will cause more innocent lives to be lost. "
Gloria continued, "Since Your Highness Prince Richard has brought an army with him, what reason is there not to reclaim the north county? With all of our strength, it is not difficult to reclaim the north county. "
Prince Richard smiled. "We have a saying in the empire: Only fools sacrifice for the benefit of others."
Gloria's beautiful face was covered with a layer of frost. "Your Highness Prince Richard, your words have chilled the hearts of the empire's allies. Also, let me remind you that reclaiming the north county is not a move without benefits for you. Not to mention the strategic help to the empire, just the merit of reclaiming the capital of the north is enough for you to leave a deep mark in His Majesty's heart and take a solid step towards the position of the crown prince! "
Prince Richard shook his head. "Lord Glantis, I came to the north this time with a secret mission to investigate the seal of the Northshire Abbey … To me, this is my duty. Since I'm already here, I have to complete this task first before considering other things. "
Prince Richard's words were easy to understand. The emperor of the Lionheart Empire sent him to the North County Abbey just like a teacher giving him a test. Only by completing the task of investigating the seal could he be considered a pass. Only then would he have time to consider other questions that would give him extra points, such as reclaiming the north county.
After all, the north county was lost in the hands of Arenas and belonged to Gloria. If anyone was anxious, it should be the two of them. What did it have to do with Richard Tebron?
After understanding this point, Galantis finally changed her attitude.
"Alright. I hope you can keep your promise, Your Highness. After completing the task of investigating the seal, head to the north county! "
"So I need you … and Sir Carlisle's help," Prince Richard said with a slight nod.
"As long as it is within our power … we will do our best. I have made the decision for you. You have no objections, right, Sir Carlisle? "Gloria said.
Behind her, Sword Saint Carlisle, who was dressed in rough clothes, opened his eyes. "My sword is at your service, my lady."
"Dean Merda, it seems that you have no other choice now." Prince Richard smiled.
Standing on the left side of the hall, the solemn imperial guards took a step forward.
Under Gloria's signal, the seven or eight palace guards on the right side of the hall also took a step forward. At this moment, the feeling of deterrence was obvious.
Dean Merda was silent for a few seconds.
"Since His Highness insists and has the support of the Lord of the North, I really have no other choice. Everyone, please come with me. "
Merda turned and walked away. Behind her, the burly nun followed closely.
