Wait! "
Li Xianyu was mischievous at the critical moment. He looked at Quinn in confusion. "Why would he be in the pope's bedroom in the middle of the night? And why would you go to the pope's bedroom to find your old friend?"
Quinn was stunned.
Blood Knight: "What are you trying to say?"
Leon: "What are you trying to say?"
Jenny: "What are you trying to say?"
Li Xianyu shrugged. "Fine, I'm just being a bad-mouthed person. Please continue."
"You're quite daring, little girl." Quinn laughed. "Although the three of us are single, there is indeed something wrong with our sexual orientation. We all swore to never marry and dedicate our lives to the Lord."
This old man was quite interesting. If he was twenty years younger, he might be able to tell dirty jokes as well.
Li Xianyu smiled and stopped talking. He listened attentively.
"The leader of the Templar Knights went missing for no reason. Of course, the pope had to be informed and people were sent to search for him. Maybe the pope had something to discuss with him and summoned him. "
"When I approached the pope's bedroom with my whiskey in hand, I suddenly heard shouts and energy fluctuations. It was obvious that someone was fighting in the pope's bedroom. "
"Teacher and the pope fought?" Pace's exquisite eyebrows raised.
"Who else could it be? When I rushed into the bedroom, I couldn't believe what I saw. Green Adolf was half-kneeling on the ground, covered in blood and leaning on Levatin. In front of him was the pope with a gloomy face. I was stunned by this scene and loudly asked them, 'What the hell is going on?' "
Blood Knight subconsciously looked at his weapon. This sword weighing more than two hundred kilograms had always been the exclusive weapon of the leader of the Templar Knights.
Levatin, the Sword of Victory.
"The pope told me that Green Adolf had fallen. He was blinded by Lucifer and betrayed the Lord and our friendship. He wanted to kill the pope." Quinn closed his eyes, his voice low and slow.
"My teacher …"
"Your teacher did want to kill the pope. I didn't believe it at first, but he seemed to have gone crazy. He stood up with his sword and cursed …" Quinn paused here. Even after fifty years, he was still confused about what happened back then. "Demon, you demon! Green cursed the pope like that. "
Demon?!
The people present looked at each other.
He couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence.
You devil, that could be an expletive, but in this word, the devil is the victim.
Something like: You bad guy.
But sometimes, this sentence could be taken literally.
Pope = Devil.
Quinn did not intend to explain and continued, "I asked Greene what he meant and why he wanted to murder the Pope. As if he had lost his mind, he muttered, "Demon, you demon!" and waved Levatin around randomly. I easily subdued him. Only then did I realize that he was actually at the end of his rope. If I had come a little later, he might have died in the hands of the Pope. "
"But no matter what, the fact that he broke into the Pope's bedroom in the middle of the night and tried to murder the Pope has become an established fact. According to the rules of the Church, he will be stripped of his position and executed. I begged the Pope to spare his life for the sake of our long friendship. The Pope agreed and covered it up. We locked Grimm up in purgatory. We'll just say that Glenn died during a mission. "
The Blood Knight, Pesce, and the other people of the Church nodded slightly after hearing this.
Now that they thought about it, the news of Glenn's death was indeed unexpected and rushed. He was declared dead without any warning, without even a body.
So, there was such a secret back then.
Li Xianyu was more and more confused. "Well, grandpa, what happened after that?"
"That's all on the surface. I thought of many suspicious points, but I didn't dare to investigate. After so many years, he had thought that he would bring this matter to the Lord. But recently, Pesce was turned into a Fallen Angel, and Donder betrayed the Church. I know that what happened back then might not be simple. Something really happened to the Pope. "
"I wanted to investigate with you, but the Lord didn't give me time. Pesce, go to purgatory and find your teacher. He knows everything back then. "
"My teacher has been locked up in purgatory for so many years. Is he still alive? Even if he is, didn't you say that he has gone mad? "Pesce said worriedly.
"A knight won't fall before he finishes his mission," the old man said. "Go, leave from the back door. The people there won't trouble you."
"Take care!" The Blood Knight carried Levatin on his back and left with his subordinates.
When they came to a corner, the old man's soft voice came from behind. "There is life on the path of righteousness, but there is no death on the path."
He sat in the light, closed his eyes, and fell asleep peacefully.
A winter rain pattered down. The sky was gray and misty, and the morning mass was over. The funeral procession left the cathedral and headed in the direction of the cemetery.
Quinn Adams's coffin was bathed in the winter rain, and the raindrops splashed on the coffin lid like jade fragments.
The Dragon Knight followed the funeral procession in silence. He prayed for the coffin to be buried in peace. Then, the procession left.
He didn't leave. He stood in the cold rain and stared at Quinn Adams' tombstone.
The old man didn't complete his final mission. He died in the bar. When his followers rushed into the bar, there was only the old man's corpse and a mess on the ground. He sat peacefully in the light and passed away, holding the sword that symbolized the glory of a knight in his arms.
There were no wounds on his body. The Church deduced that he had died of exhaustion after a great battle with the traitor Blood Knight.
A knight who had dedicated his whole life to the Church, dying on the battlefield in the end, seemed to be a kind of good end?
"Donder, oh Donder, there is no more room for negotiation between us," the Dragon Knight murmured to himself while caressing Quinn's tombstone.
Quinn had indeed chosen the way he wanted to die, but at the same time, he had completely placed the Blood Knight on the opposite side of the Church.
An elder of the Church had died because of him. Even if there were hidden reasons, it would be difficult for Donder Hilbert to return to the Church.
Quinn Adams was the thirteenth commander of the Commandment Group. He was also the teacher of the Dragon Knight's teacher. The old man had a strict personality, but he was a good teacher. Not only the Dragon Knight, but the Blood Knight also often trained with the old man and received his pointers. Although they weren't teacher and disciple in name, they were in reality.
Not only had Donder injured Teacher Yushan, but Quinn Adams had also died in his hands today.
The Dragon Knight knew that the next time he met Donder, it would be a fight to the death.
Hurried footsteps could be heard. A servant walked over with a big black umbrella.
"Your Excellency Dragon Knight, I am Quinn Adams' servant. Before he left the Church, he left me a note and asked me to pass it to you. "
A note was passed over from the edge of the black umbrella.
The Dragon Knight frowned and turned around. He didn't take the note, but stared at the servant's face for a while to confirm his identity. Only then did he take the note.
He unfolded the note in the rain. The words written on it: 1972.
"Other than the note, what else did he leave for you?" the Dragon Knight asked.
"Nothing," the servant said.
The servant left after delivering the note. The Dragon Knight crushed the note into powder and threw it into the rain.
What did Quinn want to tell him in 1972?
What special meaning did the number have? Or, did something happen in 1972?
