"Mr. Duke, you are our respected leader. The family ruled the lowlands for more than 500 years. You must carry this burden!"

"Sir Duke, if the Glorious Holy See continues to harm this way, we will really not be able to survive!"

"Dude, I don't want to be broken into the castle by the Glorious Holy Church one day, illuminating the Holy Light Technique, spraying the holy water. I take whatever I see, and destroy whatever I don't like..."

"My wife's family has been messed up by them! All the collections were swept by the holy light, either smoking or blowing! Even his favorite carved four-poster bed, from the embroidered bedding to the silk bedding, was soaked in holy water, and he could not lie down at all!"

The Duke of the Netherlands looked calm and saw the right from left and then from right. The nobles in front of him seemed to be full of righteous indignation, but when things came to an end, God knew exactly how much effort he would be willing to put in.

Not to mention, the top nobles sitting here are less than half of the Count of the Netherlands family.

When it comes to the Netherlands, everyone thinks it is a region with developed commerce and rich people. But in fact, the northern Netherlands has developed agriculture, the central fishery and shipbuilding industry, and the southern wool textile industry is developed.

The poorer you are, the less affected you are from this decree. The merchants who deal with the most with pagans are the ones who are stuck by tariffs and economic policies, and the ones who are stuck the most are also the ones who are stuck.

Those lords in the north, such as the Earl of Groningen, the Earl of Essen, and the Earl of Nordwald...

They sat down so hard that they didn't even write a letter!

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious first." He raised his hands and pressed down at the same time, his voice calmly:

"We must believe in the mercy and justice of the Lord of the Glory, the saints and integrity of the Holy See, and the wise leadership of the king. For this matter, let's first visit the Archbishop and listen to his opinions. How about it?"

The Duke set the tone, and the Counts below could only obey. There was no way. The Duke was the strongest local lord in the Netherlands, and the family supported the 15th-level great swordsman.

He refused to stand up, and none of these earls could resist the Holy See...

The group left the Earl's Mansion together and visited the Lucky Cathedral in the Netherlands. After the week, they paid their dedication to the Lucky Lord and were led into the inner room by the Archbishop who presided over the church.

The Archbishop had a silver hair, a round red face, and smiled peacefully. After hearing the Duke's request, he raised his fleshy palm and patted it, held his hands together, and made a prayer gesture:

"The Lord is the most holy, the Lord is the most merciful, the Lord's glory shines on the earth, shining on all evil, and observing on all good..."

The nobles exchanged glances with each other, and had to lower their heads and follow the second round of prayer. The Archbishop preached for more than ten minutes before he stopped his saliva and calmed everyone:

"Don't be afraid, the Holy See is tolerant and kind. As long as you truly believe in our Lord, even if you have any mistakes before, the Holy See can tolerate him and give him a chance to atone for sins. As long as you draw a clear line with pagans and heresies..."

Another ten-minute speech was a speech. The voice was soft and pleasant, and it had a kind of infectious power.

Every clergyman, especially every clergyman who comes from the routes of attendant sacrifices, auxiliary sacrifices, priests, bishops, and bishops, has almost all this ability.

The higher the level, the stronger the speaking skills. For example, the contemporary pope stands on the podium and talks endlessly, and can talk for five or six hours just by just a random topic. Even if it is all clichés and empty words, it can attract the attention of the audience below. This is the basic skill...

If you are an ordinary person without strength, or a professional who has not been baptized by such saliva, you will be dizzy after hearing it in ten minutes, and you think he is very reasonable, so everyone will do what you want.

The Duke is worthy of being strong and experienced. After listening to it, he can still ask questions:

"Dear Archbishop, of course, we believe in our Lord devoutly and obey the leadership of the glorious Holy See. However, we also hope that our lives, property, and dignity will not be violated without reason. For example, do not come to search at home at any time..."

"Of course, of course." The Archbishop smiled. The nobles just felt relieved and heard him say:

"We have noticed everyone's uneasiness and the various emotions of the people. Before searching and arresting, we will definitely do a good job of communication in advance, and we will also require the magistrate staff to follow the standard procedures and try not to harm the rights and interests of the people..."

Balabara, Balabara, passed ten minutes again. This time, even the Duke of Niedland could hardly bear it. Finally, he could not bear it until the end, and the Archbishop opened the Scriptures one foot thick and two feet square and took out a page of the document:

"You are here. This is a letter of commitment drafted by a full-time official who is proficient in the law in the Holy See. Please read it and sign it if you have no problem."

The Duke of the Netherlands respectfully stood up and took it with his hands, and looked at it carefully. The promise was not long and he finished reading it in less than a minute, but he couldn't believe his eyes, and read it again after reading it.

After reading it three times in one breath, I felt dizzy and blood surging. I gritted my teeth and passed the parchment to Earl Fland beside me without saying a word.

Earl Flander felt bad when he saw his face. He took the parchment, glanced at him and immediately froze:

The residents voluntarily handed over the house and castle keys to the jurisdiction court for home search of pagans, heresy-related personnel and items;

The court will purify the houses, clear and transport them for residents for free, and destroy related items;

The property damage caused by purification is promised to voluntarily bear all losses...

"This, let's go back and study, study, study... study and study..."

They bid farewell to the Archbishop and came out one after another. As soon as they stepped out of the church, everyone's steps were paused:

A long row of black cavalry guarding two carriages all over black were parked at the entrance of the church. The cavalry was covered with heavy armor and helmets. There were only two cold lights in the gap between the armor and the helmets.

The black cavalry from the referee has arrived.

A group of nobles returned to the Duke's castle in a hurry. As soon as the conference room door was closed, the most irritable Earl Dodremet slapped the table on the spot:

"We also have to sign a letter of commitment! You have to voluntarily agree to him coming in, or even invite him in! If you don't invite? If you don't invite, you will not be pious to the Lord of Glory. If you don't be pious, you will not be able to be a lord, and you will be on the stolen stand!"

"So what if you don't sign? In the face of the great righteousness of the Lord of Faith, do you make it undevoted and disobedient?"

The Duke of the Netherlands said coldly:

"Can our existing power be comparable to the Holy See? You know, the Netherlands, the Brolin Kingdom, and the spellcasters on the entire continent are monopolized by the Holy See!"
