Chapter 557: The Stone Pillar of Salt
After Benes landed, the crowd below finally quieted down.
Everyone looked at this other giant of the church, and they all speculated that he was planning to show up at this time.
"I'm Binesse, the Priest of Wands of the Aquarius Palace."
The priestess, who was wearing a white robe of gold leaves, first introduced herself. After all, many of the priests who were present were priests who had returned from other places, so they didn't necessarily know her. Only when I heard her self-introduction at this moment did I know that this person was extraordinary.
"I understand everyone's feelings about what happened tonight, but just arguing can't solve the problem."
"I believe that what everyone cares most about is whether they can solve their own problems and injustices. This is the most fundamental."
Bines spoke slowly, attracting the pair of pupils in the firelight.
"And for this, it's not enough to just hold someone accountable. To fundamentally solve the problem, that is the current job selection problem."
"Although the system of the church has been passed down for nearly a thousand years, many aspects are not transparent and fair enough. This is the reason why everyone is angry."
She briefly talked about her opinions and thoughts, and after that, Benes did not give any space for the people present to give their opinions, but directly stated her own suggestions and decisions.
"I propose that in the next month, Lord Odis will temporarily serve as the scepter priest of the Ten Swords Palace to investigate and deal with this matter, while Lord Sibis will take a break for the time being."
"In this way, I believe that the strictness and justice of Lord Odis will prove the innocence of Lord Thebes with fair and open evidence. In addition, Lord Thebes can also take this opportunity to get rid of the stigma of the past, so as to avoid others saying, He shields himself."
"After one month, Lord Sibis will get rid of the stigma in the past, and then deal with the backlog of these years. Finally, we will openly negotiate and formulate a new system in the church meeting to ensure fairness and transparency in the future."
Since Sibes takes retreat as advance, let him really retreat, since Odis says he is just and strict, then let him be really just and strict, if he can't produce real and conclusive evidence after a month, then He will be madly attacked by the people of the Sibes faction.
This was a blatant conspiracy, and soon the two giants in the field realized it. Although Odis is a little unhappy, this result can be regarded as a step down for him. It is much better than fighting against the public tonight, and it can also maintain his reputation and prestige.
But for Sibes, this is very bad. He loses the judicial interpretation power of the Ten Swords Palace, and let others check him. Once the result is true, the reputation he regained tonight will be ruined, and he will lose more. many. It is conceivable that Odis will surely crucify him when he seizes this opportunity, and will not give him a chance to turn over.
But before, he had voluntarily given up the scepter of the Ten Swords Palace. If he objected at this moment, the newly established personality would have to collapse immediately.
After hearing Bines' proposal, the fat man Sibis was almost unsteady, his forehead was sweating, and he was not at all calm during this time. He never thought that Binesse, a priestess who usually seemed to be ignorant of world affairs, would be so terrifying when she opened her mouth, forcing him directly to the cliff.
And just when he was shaking his hands to wipe the sweat, Odis had already responded.
"Since Lord Benes suggested so, then I readily agree, but I don't know if the honorable Lord Sibis will agree." The leader of the knights directed everyone's attention to the fat white archbishop behind the crowd.
Facing the gazes of the thousands of eyes present, Sibis sweated on his back, and then his body suddenly fell back and fainted.
"No, Lord Sibis passed out."
"Hey, I must be angry. It is clear that Lord Sibis is so noble, yet he has to suffer such humiliation and be censored in this way." A priest next to him still tried to shout for him, since Sibis is hard to say If he refuses, let his ally beside him help him refuse.
There were also bursts of discussion from all around.
"Did Sir Sibis really faint?"
"Is he mad? Lord Sibis is too difficult." There was a sparse voice of approval from the side.
"I think it's a pretense, isn't it saying that Lord Sibis is a Sequence 8? Don't you have the ability to bear this?" But more people began to debunk Sibis' thoughts.
"It's hard to say. It is said that the higher the sequence level, the more serious the consequences of losing control of the heart." Sibis' allies tried to save it again.
"Then what to do now, who is listening?"
"Of course I listened to the opinions of Lord Benes. Didn't Lord Odis agree just now? The two giants of the church agreed. Who else can object. Or who has the qualifications and prestige to object."
"Lord Charente has been out of the Star Orbit Palace... alas."
With the various noisy voices in the arena, many people's opinions gradually turned to Benes' proposal, and the people of Thebes' faction, due to the lack of characters who could fight against Benes and Odis, did not have a moment. Find the right reasons to be anxious.
Hopefully tonight will be a fresh start. Looking at the silhouettes in the firelight, the faces, old or young, Bines sighed in her heart, and at the same time raised a trace of admiration for the silver-haired girl beside her.
As expected of the sage of Crancia, such a proposal directly hit the heart of both parties, so Odis had to agree, and Sibis could not refute it.
And just when everything was going good, an inconspicuous gray-haired man in the crowd silently stretched his hand into his arms. And this action did not arouse the vigilance of the people present, because this action is so common, everyone thought that he was just sorting out some messy clothes.
But Loren Hill, who was standing beside Benes, was different.
A feeling of extreme danger rose in her heart, as if it were a lifelong rival and best friend, so familiar, so unfamiliar, and so striking.
Time seemed to become extremely slow in her fast-moving perception and thoughts, and 1 second was cut into 1,000 parts and passed slowly in her eyes.
The world in sight and perception.
In the burning brazier next to it, a small spark slowly jumped up from it, slowly turning red and brighter, shrinking and blooming again, bursting open, tearing the small atmosphere in the air, sending out invisible ripples, like the transmission around. go. The middle-aged man on the opposite side was opening his mouth to spit out a short syllable. A metal tooth next to him reflected a faint light in the firelight, and a small flying insect was landing on his collar. The two tentacles in front were raised.
Roland Hill quickly filtered all the information, his blue transparent pupils nervously searched for any detail present, and quickly scanned the faces of different looks, looking for the source of the warning in his heart.
And these short two seconds seemed to be as long as a century, causing a tiny drop of sweat to fall from her forehead, her eyes deflected at a very high speed, and one target after another was determined.
Finally, when the gray-haired man took his hand out of his robe, he looked at Binesse, and Roland Hill also saw him.
Light gray light bloomed from the palm of his hand, and dazzling starlight also bloomed in Roland Hill's pupils.
"Turn into a pillar of salt."
As if the distant sighs from ancient times sounded in the firelight covered by the night.
