Chapter 273 Lanqi Received a Direct Offer
The floor-to-ceiling windows several meters high behind the throne of Cid were blocked by thick curtains like waterfalls, making it almost impossible for the outside light to penetrate. Only in the occasional gaps, the clouds outside and the silhouettes of distant buildings could be seen.
In this luxurious space that looked like a private collection, she and Lanqi, who was standing in the distance, looked at each other from a distance.
"I am Sigrid of the Tyrant Catholic Church."
Cid said this calmly.
"..."
Although Lanqi's expression did not change, his hesitation had exposed that he seemed to be a little confused.
It was not because he was too caught off guard to meet the cardinal of the Resurrection Church for the first time.
It was because he could not understand the brain circuit of the woman in front of him.
The cardinal also came to the Silent Branch as an undercover?
The Silent Branch really couldn't guess that the Tyrant Catholic Church would play like this!
But Lanqi was not qualified to comment on the Tyrant Catholic Church, because he happened to do the same thing, and then the two of them collided with each other, which led to the current situation by mistake.
"This is the current version of the Empire. When doing things in Protoss, wisdom is everything."
Sigrid, the Tyrant Catholic, seemed to be able to see Lanqi's confusion, and spread her right hand and said,
"Instead of recruiting talents at the risk of being infiltrated by the Silence Branch, I would rather go to the Silence Branch and take away the best talents they have discovered."
Whatever she wants, she never steals, but directly robs.
"So you are not going to continue to sneak into the high-level of the Silence Branch to sabotage?"
Lanqi asked with a little confusion.
"I can't do this kind of insidious thing."
Sigrid seemed to think of what the Silence Branch has been doing for many years, and smacked her lips in disdain.
So far, her goal has been achieved, and she no longer plans to use the identity of Sid.
Lanqi was stunned again when he heard this.
He thought that the Tyrant Catholic was playing a big chess.
It turned out that her motive seemed to be simpler than he thought.
She just wanted to plunder the leader of the new recruits recruited by the Silence Branch.
Then he personally hired Lanqi BOSS directly.
While Lanqi still looked calm, his shadow began to waver.
"......!"
Just being at this distance from Tyrant Catholic Church, Boss Cat was scared to death.
It had never seen a bishop-level existence of the Resurrection Church in its life, but at this moment, the catastrophic creature that could destroy the world was suddenly in front of it!
It was a fear that came from the depths of the soul, an inescapable fear of a powerful force of unknown level.
Under this oppression, it could only tremble helplessly, hoping that the existence on the throne that was more terrifying than the legendary eighth-level dragon would not notice it and give it a chance to survive.
"Your shadow is shaking."
Sigrid was very patient with Lanqi, and didn't care about his silence. She stared at his shadow and muttered to herself.
Then Lanqi's shadow seemed to be trembling, and twisted even more.
"I'm not interested in hurting such a weak creature, unless you challenge me, little guy."
Her eyes seemed to be able to see Boss Cat through the shadow, even across the space.
"......!!"
After her voice ended, Boss Cat hesitated.
The little black cat with its fur all over its body finally emerged from the shadow and climbed onto Lanqi's body. Its body curled up tightly, and its whole body was shrouded in cold fear.
Only by staying in Lanqi's hands could it feel a little safe at this time.
It only hoped that it could survive in the face of this terrible creature.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Lanqi hugged the cat boss and patted it gently, so that it wouldn't be afraid.
"So, did the bishop take a fancy to my performance in the Nirvana branch assessment?"
Lanqi raised his head and saluted Sigrid again, asking respectfully.
He was not completely sure whether the Tyrant Catholic Church came to him because of the transformation of the Southwest Province or the Nirvana branch assessment.
In the Southwest Province, except for the Silver Armor priest who met Viscount Francis on his ship at the beginning, other priests as disseminators and dissemination channels not only had not seen his true face, but also had not come into contact with his true body.
And Lanqi's education should be quite thorough. He has been in the imperial capital Helrom for only a few days.
Even if Tyrant Catholicism went to the Southwest Province to investigate, it should not be so fast to find the Silver Armor Priest and ask him about the true identity of the pioneer.
"Yes, although I don't know your results in the first round of assessment, and your performance in the second round was just average, but I like your performance in the final assessment."
Sigrid raised her hand and pointed at Lanqi,
"You are very good, I want you, come and be my direct soldier."
"..."
This made Lanqi a little embarrassed.
At the beginning, no one in Ikerite seemed to have such high hopes for him.
On the contrary, he was favored by a cardinal as soon as he came to the North Continent.
Although Tyrant Catholicism did give him a lot of respect, the treatment offered was obviously two levels higher than that of the Nirvana Branch. Even if she asked to observe the stone tablet, she would probably not embarrass herself too much.
But the problem is that he doesn't want to observe the [Original Stone Tablet-Basic] at all. What he wants to see is the [Original Stone Tablet-Seal]!
Moreover, he has officially chosen the camp of the Catholic Church, and even at the level of a direct soldier. He can forget about staying in the Silent Branch.
"If I join, can you let me continue to lurk in the Silent Branch?"
Lan Qi asked.
"...You have a good plan, you want to have the best of both worlds, right?"
Sigrid looked at Lan Qi's emerald eyes and smiled, as if she could read his mind.
"But isn't it the most profitable thing for you to let me sabotage the Silent Branch?"
Lan Qi explained.
It seems that Tyrant Catholicism has a strong desire for control.
"I said I don't like to do this kind of thing. My direct soldiers should stay by my side and do things for me according to my orders."
When Tyrant Catholicism heard Lan Qi's second question, his expression was obviously a little impatient.
"It's easy for you to die if you go to the Silent Branch with a crooked mind. I think a smart guy like you will not be confused about what kind of person the Silent Bishop is. In comparison, if you stay here with me, as long as you are loyal to me, I will not only not punish you, but also use my power to protect you."
Lan Qi looked at Tyrant Catholicism Sigrid, and was not afraid of the death that could fall on him at any time, but just thought calmly.
"Promise her meow...promise her meow..."
"It doesn't matter which family you stay in...it's obviously better here meow..."
The cat boss in Lanqi's arms trembled and whispered desperately.
It no longer cared whether Lanqi joined the Resurrection Church or not, for fear that Lanqi would reject the Catholic Church!
The moment he answered no, the two of them would probably end here!
