Invincible Chapter 482
The establishment of the four guards of the holy religion is somewhat similar to the three major knight orders during the medieval crusades in the original world.
It's just that the Four Great Guards don't have a chief, or in other words, the chief is a saint.
The status of saints in the church is higher than that of bishops. Coupled with the fact that he has a gun and a strategic weapon in his hands, his status is becoming more and more lofty. Except for the Lunar Council, which is equivalent to the Pope, no one is a bird.
The elite force of the Four Guards consists of two parts, one of which is the Knights.
For example, the temple is actually Jessica, she is a member of the Knights. But the position is quite different. The Canglan Knights have one grand master and two captains, and Jessica is none other than Jessica, but Jessica's status is not lower than that of the other three temple knights, and even slightly exceeds it.
Because Jessica is the commander of the special unit of the Canglan Guard.
The special unit of the Canglan Guard is called the Far Traveler, which includes the search team, the scout team, and the hunting team (evil ghost hunters).
This part is also elite, and even superior to the Knights in terms of resource deflection.
The existence of the far traveler, from a certain angle, also positioned the main authority of the Canglan Guards.
They are the eyes and ears of the holy religion. The intelligence information of Shengjiao 80 was obtained by Cang Lan.
This is also the reason why Saint Ashien is eager to 'work odd jobs' or 'get married'.
She may not be the one who knows the most information, but when it comes to comprehensiveness, such as comprehensive understanding of the situation in various countries and inside and outside the Holy Church, no one in the Holy Church has a deeper understanding than her.
But Kane didn't have Zhao Aixien this time.
Kane didn't know that Ashien was the most cooperative among the four saints. And even if he knew, he might not choose Ai Xien.
To put it bluntly, the senior leaders of the Holy Church may feel that cooperating with him is subservient, which is very good for him. But he actually doesn't need this kind of face, and even looks down on it.
In Kane's grand plan, there is no such thing as forming an alliance with the Holy Church.
His thinking is always based on himself.
Just like what he did in SC Universe, at the beginning it was to take resources and grow itself. In the mid-term, if you have hard power, then it depends on the specific situation. You don't need to play smart eyes to know people, who owes others favors.
When he came to this abyss world, although he did not have the prophetic advantage like those who went to those universes with two-dimensional attributes, he still had a key intelligence advantage.
And this time the model is not self-exploitation farming, but predatory farming. In this context, there is no need to sell information for money, and it is shared directly when it is time to share. Not to repay the favor, but to give some support to these indigenous forces, and not to destroy them too quickly. It is really like the captain of the transportation brigade, allowing them to form a system to collect people and supplies.
So Kane doesn't like Ashien's kind of one who wants to hug his thigh and cooperate deeply.
This time he chose Saint Sharna of the Bright Guards.
The Jiaohui Guard is known as the most popular holy force. Its special unit is the Skitarii, which includes Inquisitors, Security Officers, etc.
Just looking at the positions, it is not difficult to understand that a considerable part of the functions of this armed force overlaps with the police functions of the original world.
Kane didn't expect the cathars to really take over the police's burden. In fact, according to his guess, the Skitarii is probably the most severely infiltrated and corrupted among the four Holy Cults.
It is the large number of betrayals of these current management who are close to the bottom that can deceive the underworld and cover up the undercover, and open the door for the subversive actions of the Shepherds Association.
One of the reasons why Kane chose Sharna was that Sharna, as the most down-to-earth Supreme Leader of the Skitarii, should be aware of the existence of the Shepherds Council.
After all, the shepherd's association is now very large, and its operation itself will affect all aspects of social operation just like the existence of mountains affects the climate.
This cannot be completely concealed by pretending to be low-key, unless there is no interaction and exchange, it can be hidden. And the Shepherd Club is obviously not looking for a no-man's land to dig a hole and develop for 50 years, and then sweep the world.
Instead, it hides in the dark, seizes various opportunities and official loopholes, and develops rapidly.
The second reason for choosing Sharna is that Sharna is relatively rational and independent. Emphasis on the construction of the armed forces, but also on economic development.
In Kane's eyes, among the four saints, Sharna is the closest to the official leader's qualities, Lulun is a man who can only use his fists, and Ashien lacks courage, responsibility, and likes to play tricks. As for Vera of the Holy Moon Guard, the most mysterious saint, even the people inside the Holy Cult know little about her, and only the higher-ups know more about her. Kane didn't think much about the saint who claims to be the closest to God.
Not to mention the recent pick-up, so what if it is a true god? Competitive, could it be better than Ned Hogg? And the job he is doing now is to spoil Ned Hogg's good deeds. What is a holy man who lives in seclusion and never shows his face all year round?
The scout was not so much given power, as it was undergoing an experimental transformation.
Kane didn't ask for his name from the beginning to the end. He said: "I don't need you to have a name. From now on, in front of me, you only have a code name, Raven."
There are no corvids in the abyss world, and the role of the crow is replaced by a falcon.
Furthermore, there are many kinds of eagles and falcons in this world, and there are also giant eagles similar to those in the Lord of the Rings, which are naturally so big. Magical beasts are said to compete with Yalong for supremacy in the air.
As for the real dragon, it has been extinct in this world for many years. At least in human history, there are only records of real dragons in unverifiable ancient legends.
Since there is no corvidae, raven is a self-made word, and no one knows about this stalk.
And Kane used this word not to show his personality, but to show the Shepherd Council.
He wondered how well the Shepherd would interact with Nid Hogg's messages.
He believed that Nid Hogg knew about Raven's stalk.
Then, if there is frequent exchange of information with the Shepherds Council, Ned Hogg can quickly guess through this word that he may be a visitor from another time and space.
He believed that by that time, his clearance priority at the Shepherd's Council would increase rapidly. Become the target of killing them quickly, even regardless of the cost.
If that's the case, he thinks it's good. The enemies come in an endless stream, and they are all masters. This is much more efficient than him digging out information one by one.
And those who can compete with him are mostly playing the role of "double bonus red stick" in the shepherd's association.
Once such figures are reduced sharply, the Shepherd Council will also be weakened.
At the same time, as an audience, the holy religion, the kingdom's officials, and even other forces, after watching a good show, they will naturally feel touched, and it will not be so easy to be beaten.
Raven was originally a member of the Far Travelers and was not familiar with the cathars. As a result, this time Kane used one-way teleportation and sent it to the square outside the Jiaohui Chapel.
The Jiaohui Chapel is a very private place, only senior members are eligible to come.
The raven was thrown out of a crack that opened in the air suddenly, and was besieged by more than 10 heavily armed knights the next moment.
Raven quickly explained: "Everyone, I used to be a member of the Far Travelers. I was discovered by the surveillance target and sent a message. I request to see Her Royal Highness Sharna."
It turned out that the first person to meet him was a temple knight on duty.
The knight directly rejected Raven's request with bureaucratic rhetoric.
Raven wiped his hands and took out the "Code of Law", the relic of the adjudicator of the Shepherd Council.
"My lord, have you felt the strange energy fluctuations of this "Code"? Now, I can see Her Highness Sharna."
The temple knight's eyes lit up strangely, and he said, "It's really unusual, come with me."
As a result, the temple knights did not take the raven to Sharna, but brought it to the Sanctuary of Inheritance, and suddenly robbed it in the courtyard.
Raven yelled: "That's really good, even the temple knights have betrayed. If Talos hadn't reminded me before coming down, it is really possible for you to succeed!"
While speaking, the raven's body burned with a holy white flame, like a fire rushing straight up into the sky.
However, what the temple knights robbed was a fake tome, implying a magic mark, which would be difficult to erase in a short time after touching it.
The raven's soaring light alarmed the nearby guards. The Sanctuary of Inheritance is a very private place, so there are naturally many experts to protect it.
And that temple knight, under such circumstances, naturally did not forget to take advantage of his position to turn black and white and frame Raven.
He didn't even give Raven a chance to explain, and just did it directly.
However, Raven is not what it used to be.
With Kane's generosity, he would naturally not treat Raven badly.
What's more, the position that Kane bestowed on Raven Messenger can be regarded as his face from a certain point of view. He is not the kind of person who easily slaps people in the face and humiliates them.
And the biggest bright spot is that Kane didn't let Raven go to the Soul system, but the Holy Light system.
Raven originally used the moon shadow secret technique as a housekeeping skill, but now he is a scorching sun walker, a holy light system with the characteristics of the natural god system.
Even on such a moonless night, the Holy Flame Bodyguard can still be condensed, and the appearance is not generally good.
Not only was the traitorous temple knight unable to take down the raven, but he also couldn't slander him too much, for example, the raven was an evil person and so on. It's too hard to believe. Not only does he have a pure and comfortable natural holy light endorsement, but even his combat skills are majestic, and his appearance and temperament are majestic and upright against the backdrop of the holy light. He doesn't look evil at all. only.
Seeing that the temple knights were not going to help everyone, and they couldn't take it down, they retreated.
At this time, the raven started talking.
This person's talk is not bad, it sounds like a work report, very dry, but the logic is clear, the words are accurate, concise, detailed, easy to understand, and highly credible.
The final result was that the guards trusted Raven even more. It cannot be said to be more trustworthy, it should be said to be more fair. They said that the Qing is self-cleaning, since it has become like this, then confront it with the Holy One, and let the Holy One decide, there is nothing wrong with this.
How dare the traitorous Temple Knights really go to court? On the surface, he agreed, but in the end he took Leng Zi to break through. This time, he was more decisive, and directly used all his combat power, even using his evil energy.
At that time, more than a dozen people were guarded by the betrayer. If the Raven's holy light hadn't restrained them and provided timely assistance, these people would have died if they couldn't survive for 3 minutes.
This is really big.
Holy Cult Guards, a total of 12 Templar Knights, in terms of military ranks, only below the Saints, basically they are the commanders of a battle group, all of them can be corrupted into demons, this is no longer a matter of embarrassment, but It is the great crisis of the holy religion.
After all, with the power of the Templar Knights, they can get access to a lot of key military information. If this information is leaked out, then the Holy Cult's military power will basically have no secrets in the eyes of the opponent.
Saint Sharna was alarmed, but it was too late. Seeing that she couldn't get out of the trap, the traitor didn't say any harsh words, just smiled sinisterly, and then turned into ashes in the evil flames.
Whether it was the original Temple Knight who betrayed, or was killed and replaced secretly, there is no way to find out now, and the clues are directly broken.
This incident also exposed a situation, that is, Sharna was injured, and the injury was not serious, and she was beyond her strength, which made the betrayer calmly commit suicide.
Because the matter was too big, the Jiaohui Guards couldn't cover it at all. Before dawn, the Lunar Lord Council held an emergency meeting, and this time it was not a meeting of magic holograms, but a real person present. Energy, for long-distance transmission.
Raven was also fortunate to participate in part of this meeting.
When Kane asked the Raven to send the "Code of Law", Sharna said surprisingly: "I was injured by the person who held this code of law!"
Now it's all right, there is no need for Kane to pretend to be a comparison, and there is no need for Raven, a believer, to show Kane's strength. Just because of Sharna's injury, Kane's compulsion will immediately increase by not a little bit.
After all, Sharna was injured one-on-one and was almost hunted down.
And Kane is a one-on-two, unscathed, and cleanly executed the two arbiters who were obviously in perfect harmony. The gap in combat power can be seen from this.
Raven personally delivered it to the door, and the high-level officials of the Holy Church naturally would not let go of the opportunity to watch Kane fight.
Kane didn't intend to hide it from the beginning, otherwise Raven would have no chance to be a bystander when he was still a scout. At a distance of more than two hundred meters, Kane could raise his hand and kill the scout.
So, with the help of Raven's memory, the senior members of the Holy Cult saw the fierce battle.
In Lulun's words: "No matter which side it is, the techniques used are all out of the ordinary. I seriously doubt whether they have ever appeared on the continent of Ekara. However, the problem is that these techniques seem to be quite mature. It can be said that they have such concise and fierce features after hard work. So I want to ask, who are they and where are they from?"
Sharna said: "I am more concerned about the side that owns the "Code of Law". Not only do they use evil energy, but many of them are spells that are easy to carry with the legion. After some time, it will become a battle group with sound arms, everyone, what does this mean, I don't think I need to say more?"
