Chapter 315 The King's Means
After listening to Duke Bernie's explanation, Kelvin gradually understood that things were not simple this time.
Seeing this, Duke Bernie was a little relieved, and his voice became stronger.
He continued to explain to Kelvin: "With Nahum, a 'loyal' guy, and the king has placed the greatest power in this line of work in Nahum's hands, we will go with the church again. Too much can only be used as a tool. Once our people dare to do something outrageous, Nahum will not hesitate to order our people to be killed."
The Duke of Bernie said, and said to Kelvin in a warning tone: "Don't think that Nahum is afraid, the king's best is this, Nahum can kill my people at will, even you No exception, for Nahum knows very well that the King will come to his defense."
"However, on the contrary, our people must not attack Nahum. Otherwise, the next moment, they will be accused of treason and face the encirclement and suppression of the entire human race."
"So Kelvin, you have to understand as soon as possible that you may not gain anything from going to Winter City this time. The only thing you can do is to pursue Nahum's daughter Lily."
Kelvin was shocked when he heard this, obviously this kind of thing was too complicated and troublesome for a dude like him, but Kelvin understood one thing.
Kelvin said to Duke Bernie, "Father, can I not pursue Lily? I prefer Her Royal Highness Adele."
The Duke of Bernie glanced at him, and then said coldly: "Don't dream, you are not worthy of Her Royal Highness Adele, and no one in the empire is worthy of her so far, Her Royal Highness Adele may become a rare one in history. And what you can do is to pursue Lily honestly. As long as you marry Lily and have a relationship with Nahum, the king will relieve his suspicion of us, and our family and our title will always be stable. .”
...
While Duke Bernie was talking to Kelvin, something similar happened in the church.
Pope Adam stood on the second floor of the church with a man in red.
They had just finished chatting about the king's means and came to the same conclusion as Duke Bernie.
Then the two stood on the corridor on the second floor, looking down at the downstairs.
In the holy church, countless believers prayed to the statue in front of them.
Every believer's face is full of fanatical belief. After praying, they will walk to the offering box in front of them, take out some silver coins and throw them in.
Even poor people in rough linen clothes and patches will desperately take out a few copper coins from their bodies at this time.
After that, they will be able to get a special leaf called an indulgence from the priest on the side.
Those who put gold coins into the offering box get gold indulgences, those who put silver coins get silver indulgences, and those who put copper coins get copper indulgences.
Vote one and get an indulgence, which is a leaf.
However, for those seemingly useless leaves, countless people have emptied all their savings for it.
Because these are indulgences, people are born with sins, and they must be redeemed by these indulgences, otherwise they will fall into hell after death and suffer eternal torment.
They are living hard enough now, and they are afraid of facing an even harder life after death.
Therefore, even if they don't know how to drink, they still want to get an extra slice of indulgence.
...
On the second floor, the man in red looked indifferently at the scene in front of him, and said to the Pope, "My lord, we have more and more believers recently."
Pope Adam nodded, but didn't say much, his bright eyes were also full of indifference.
Seeing this, the man in red suddenly asked, "My lord, why didn't you dispel that rumor?"
When Pope Adam heard this, he suddenly looked back at the man and asked, "Archbishop Bernice, which rumor are you referring to?"
Cardinal Bernice said: "Naturally it was the death of Lenny Carton. How could Lenny Carton die at the hands of the God of Man? Besides, if the God of Man needs it, our church will naturally It's not too difficult to make Lenny Carton die quietly."
Pope Adam nodded, agreeing with Bernice's statement.
Both of them had extremely serious expressions, as if they had never doubted the existence of God.
At this time, the Pope pointed to the believers in the church and said: "Although the rumor is false, it can better spread the name of God and save the ignorant people, so it is necessary to exist, but..."
"but?"
"However, some people are exercising the right to judge in the name of God. This is blasphemy against God. It is the ultimate evil. We will not allow the existence of blasphemers. Let the head of the church in Winter City investigate this matter and find that Blasphemer, as long as he is found, we will replace God and wash away his sins."
"I see, I'll arrange it right away."
...
Still at the same time.
In Nahum's Prince's Mansion, Adele said to a woman whose eyebrows were very similar to hers: "Lily, don't worry, I will find a chance to visit you in Winter City after a while."
The beautiful woman named Lily blinked her big eyes, and smiled on her cherry-like mouth, and said, "Okay, we have an appointment,"
As she spoke, Lily stretched out her crystal little finger.
Adele's face under the veil smiled, and stretched out her equally crystal-clear little finger, hooking up with Lily's.
...
Just like that, a huge vortex moved from the human capital towards Winter City.
At this time, Li Fan is still continuing his soldier training program.
...
On the seventh day of training soldiers, the national military training program was finally completed.
The people in the valley, except for 300 soldiers, also returned to their posts.
The only difference is that they own their own property at this time, so they need to pay for themselves whether they are eating or entering Paradise Street.
Of course, they also get paid for their work.
Whether it is farming for the territory or building a paradise town.
You can also cultivate your own fields.
If someone wants to do some business, the territory can even provide them with some extra help.
Because of these changes.
The era of big pot rice is completely over.
And the life of the people is getting richer and richer.
Gradually, there was a kind of prosperity that surpassed the city of Winter.
This made Li Fan, who watched all this, feel a burst of relief.
After all, all of this is due to him.
...
However, it was also during this time that an accident suddenly occurred in the territory.
Early in the morning, Li Fan heard an unbearable voice.
"The young master is not well, something happened."
