Chapter 638: Authority

In the castle of the Ryan family, Sandro sat in the position of the owner of the main hall, drinking tea and reading the newspaper. Seven or eight maids were serving in the main hall. If Du Dian was here, he would find that the once simple Ryan The castle has now become splendid and luxurious, and the maids and knights in the castle are no longer a poor dozen or so. Now the number of maids alone is dozens of people, scattered in every corridor.

And there are as many as two to three hundred knights patrolling outside the manor. For nobles, this is a status symbol, no less than money!

You must know that these knights are the legal private military force of nobles, and the number of knights often determines the strength of a noble.

While hiring these knights, the small town where the Ryan family is located is not the same as before. Four or five farms and pastures have been developed in the mountains outside the town, managed by the Ryan family, and the food produced is enough to feed all the knights and them in the castle. squires, and servants.

"The new Pope?" Sandro saw the news in the newspaper, his leisurely expression froze for a moment, and Erlang's legs that were originally crossed quickly put down, shook all the newspapers, and looked carefully.

After a while, a look of shock slowly appeared on his face, "The pope is going to abdicate? Why is there no news about such a big event as the succession of the new pope? Could it be that the Holy See blocked the news?"

He was stunned for a while, then slowly came to his senses, frowned and fell into deep thought, "If the new pope succeeds, I don't know if the rule that nobles are exempted from being selected as a Knight of Light will be changed... It seems that Jasmine and the others must be let as soon as possible." Joining the Holy See of Light, if this regulation is cancelled, it will be difficult to join." Thinking of this, he immediately called the butler and told him to ask Jasmine and others to come up.

The butler agreed, turned and went downstairs.

Sandro looked up out of the window. He was already middle-aged, and his bushy beard looked a bit vicissitudes. He looked into the distance with a hint of worry, "I hope nothing major will happen..."

In the hall of the Feilan family, there are twelve figures of different sizes sitting, they are the elders of the 12th district. Among them, the elder who was killed by Du Dian has been replaced by others. Above the hall, sat a black-haired boy and a slender woman. The hall was silent, as if a palpitating power enveloped everyone.

Du Dian looked at the tall and straight Patriarch of the Feilan family, Feilan Kesi, and said, "General Feilan, please take a seat."

Phelan Kess was flattered, "Thank you, Speaker."

Immediately, an attendant ran up to offer the seat.

Du Dian glanced at him, the Feilan family's allegiance to the Dark Holy See is not a matter of overnight,

But from their ancestors, they began to be loyal to the Dark Vatican, or in other words, the most admired female general among their ancestors who established outstanding military exploits was a member of the Dark Vatican, and the military exploits she established, beheaded The countless savages killed were also completed with the secret assistance of the dark church.

Therefore, since this female general, the Feilan family has worked for the Dark Holy See for generations, and it is the biggest pawn that the Dark Holy See has placed in the military region! This is also one of the reasons why the Dark Holy See held a meeting of elders in the Feilan family.

"Dark Moon Project, everyone must be clear." Du Dian looked at the elders of the 12th district in the hall, and said coldly: "When the new Pope succeeds, it will be the time when our Dark Holy See and the Bright Holy See are integrated. From now on The Holy See of Light will be under our control, and you don’t have to live in darkness anymore, I believe that when the Holy See of Light falls into our hands, the military region and the court will also submit to us.”

He said "we wait" instead of "I". The difference of only one word made many people secretly notice that although Du Dian didn't know whether it was intentional or not, there was a little excitement and expectation in his heart.

"All this is the credit of the speaker. If you have any orders, I, Yegou, will obey!" One of the strong men said forcefully. If Du Dian was the speaker before, everyone respected him because of fear, but now he is more There is more conviction and expectation. After all, once the new pope succeeds in a short period of time, the Holy See of Light will no longer be an opponent of the Holy See of Darkness, but a servant!

As a dark believer who has been suppressed by the Holy See for a long time, this kind of thing has only been thought of in occasional dreams. Usually, I dare not even think about it, but now it is about to become a reality!

How is this not exciting? !

Du Dian nodded, "The common people don't know enough about the new Pope, I hope you will fully implement the Dark Moon plan. Except for the highest core chess pieces, you don't have to hide the first-line chess pieces we have placed in other forces. Now is the time for them to play a role. !"

"My lord, these commoners don't know anything about the new Pope. Can they be convinced by their words alone?" Someone asked worriedly.

"Don't underestimate the power of authority!" Du Dian said coldly: "There was once a good example, a deacon priest of the trial office, without detailed investigation, easily judged a case, he said, guilty. So , the person who was wronged is really guilty. No one will believe that a deacon priest will judge the wrong case, this is the power of authority!"

The person who spoke earlier was silent.

"My lord, when the Holy See of Light falls into our hands, will we be able to rule the entire outer wall area immediately?" A stern young man who replaced the "Night King" who was once one of the three kings had his eyes shining, expectantly.

Du Dian glanced at him indifferently, and said: "The other forces are not fools. They haven't taken any action yet because they are not sure. After the new pope succeeds, they will know that the Holy See of Light is under our control sooner or later. Don't forget , In the Holy See of Light and us, there will also be eyeliner and pawns they planted."

Hearing this, everyone changed their colors slightly and looked at each other.

Du Dian raised his hand to suppress the commotion, and said indifferently: "You don't have to doubt each other. The outer wall area will fall into our hands sooner or later. It's useless for them to know. Who can stop the union of the Holy See of Light and us?"

"What the speaker said is true." Someone immediately agreed.

The prestigious sword king on the side also immediately expressed his opinion, "The chairman is right. If the Holy See of Light unites with us, the military region will be vulnerable. As for the court and the palace of knights, well, they are paper tigers. Only then can they stand firm and show off their prestige, and now that the big tree of the Holy See of Light has fallen, they can only surrender!"

"well said!"

Everyone was happy and excited.

Du Dian saw the enthusiasm of the crowd, and immediately explained his plan, which also set up a prevention of interference in the inner wall area. Seeing Du Dian's thoughtfulness, the others became more and more frightened and awed. After all, it is not as simple as everyone thinks. Once the outer wall area is unified, the biggest problem to be faced is the inner wall area.

It's just that no one dares to speak out about this worry, which is tantamount to throwing cold water on him and offending Du Dian.

This is a character that even the Night King dared to kill casually. If he was killed if he was upset, it would be too cost-effective.

However, this worry gradually disappeared after listening to Du Dian's plan.

"Master Speaker really considered everything." An old man sighed softly, admiringly.

"When I was in the Ninth District, I saw the strategy and talent of the Chairman, and I learned it again today. It is really admirable!" Hawkeye, who was sitting in the position of the elder of the Ninth District, immediately complimented him from the side.

Du Dian waved his hand and said: "If you all remember, the meeting will end."

Everyone got up one after another, took their leave one after another and left.

Du Dian saw the sword king get up and glanced at the attendant behind him. Judging from the appearance, it was similar to the portrait of Riley he got from Richelieu. He immediately said, "Sword king, your A servant, I am pleasing to the eye, can you give it to me?"
