As one of the top leaders of the Theocracy, Harbor is very low-key and rarely appears in public. ∑, The best novel reading experience is here
He is in charge of military affairs and defense setup. He should be responsible for the daily patrols and patrols of the Knights. He is a very busy man.
"Just sneak in and wait for him directly in his room. Isn't that how secret conversations are done?"
What Heloise said is simple, but I don't have the sneaky sneaking skills of a dead cat. I'd better not do the stupid thing of sneaking while carrying hundreds of pounds of heavy armor.
Once discovered, even I would have a headache due to the encirclement and attack by the angel war group and high-level paladins.
I thought for a moment that sneaking into a secret society might be regarded as an assassin, but then it suddenly dawned on me.
"I'm stupid, I can't just say hello directly."
Yes, I unknowingly fell into a misunderstanding of thinking. Although the Holy Church and I have been at war with each other in various aspects, in terms of expression, the northern forces and the Holy Church are still allies.
Just thinking about directly encircling and killing me while the northern front has not yet been completed, directly declaring war with the Lan Alliance is stupid.
I think it's very difficult to kill me in private. Maybe it's a little difficult to win, but it's really easy to make the whole city know that Roland is coming.
Moreover, if I am not wrong, there may be other gains from the fair visit.
So, I immediately wrote a letter, engraved my family crest and magic seal on it, and then found someone to send it to the local church headquarters.
Less than half an hour later, the door to my hotel room opened, and Harborough walked in with a livid face.
He looks to be in his forties, but to be able to reach this position in the temple headquarters, his real age should have been over sixty. He is well maintained and well-dressed. What shines on that white robe is not magic.
The radiance is arcane brilliance, and the magic power fluctuation is not low. It should be a priest robe modified from a master's robe. It seems that he is a pragmatist.
He has a Chinese character face, a rather strong body, and his Holy Light attainments should be high. He looks like he was a handsome guy when he was young, but now his complexion is ugly.
"Your Highness Roland, you and I have a grudge. I shouldn't have offended you before."
I chuckled, and as expected, it seemed that Harborough was really not stupid.
"No grudge. Among those bishop-level fools, I admire you the most. I just want to talk to you."
What I did was I just wrote "I'm at the Pig Tail Hotel 302, let Harborough come to see me, there are some important things to talk about, I won't talk about it when the others come".
I guarantee that in the middle of the night today, the Pope of the Holy Church will receive an urgent message: "Roland, the enemy of the Holy Light, suddenly appeared in the Theocracy and requested a private meeting with Harbor."
I estimate that no matter what we talked about, no matter what Gaboro said when he went back, the Pope would not believe it.
This is not a frame-up, of course it is a frame-up, which makes it clear that deception is not a frame-up. But based on my identity, it is completely unconvincing to frame an archbishop who has not yet made his mark.
Considering how bad the other person in charge here is, it is unlikely that such a good opportunity to attack a political opponent will be missed, and various small reports will continue.
However, even though he knew it was a trap, Harbor still had to come, otherwise he would not only be derelict in his duties, but also mentally ill.
Harbor's face is ugly enough. Since there are still serious things to talk about, I won't laugh.
"Hey, kid. What do you think of the current situation?"
"It's terrible. Whichever way you ask, it's terrible."
It's a pleasure to chat with smart people. If I were to talk about this topic with a die-hard member of the Templar, and it would come up with stupid words like "The Lord of Holy Light is invincible", I wouldn't be too lazy to say it.
Yes, the current situation is very bad, not only for the North Land, but also for the Holy Church, the so-called northern front, and for Gaboro personally.
"I shouldn't have come to the north."
"But you had to come."
Harbor's tone was irritable and had a sense of self-destruction, but he did not hide his dissatisfaction with the Templar Church's policy on the northern front.
"You can tell me that it was that genius who proposed such a genius strategy as the Holy Northern Front."
"What are you going to do?"
Okay, I didn’t even use the honorific, but there was expectation in my tone.
"Of course I would like to thank him very much."
I reread the word "thank you" and it seems to mean something else.
"It's that idiot Sontou. He came here himself and dragged me here."
Harborough's face was full of joy, as if he expected me to do something to that colleague.
"Well, when you're done, please remember to convey my gratitude to Thornton Red."
Harbor's face immediately fell. It doesn't matter what I said. If he said it, he must have fallen out with Sountu.
"By the way, if you can, tell me that I will do business with him after the northern front is formed."
"Go and tell him yourself."
Harbor's face turned red, and even his neck was red with anger. He knew what Sonntu's nature was, and it was really possible.
But even if these words are spread, no one will believe them, and even if they report them, they don’t know who to report them to.
If this is a divorce plan, it is not good to act casually. After thinking about it, I can only hold it in my stomach and feel depressed.
Seeing the other person's aggrieved look, I felt more and more amused. Perhaps, this is the so-called loyal minister in troubled times. When his colleagues are still living in their dreams, it is much more comfortable to pretend to be asleep than to wake up alone.
The other party has a very devout faith and is very loyal to the church. I have no intention of poaching because I don’t like hitting the wall and talking nonsense. But if I take this incident as an opportunity and am forced to change my family due to internal strife, don’t do it.
Blame me.
"I regret coming to see you."
The more he thought about it, the more troubled he became, and Harboro was probably almost angry and crying.
"It's late."
I smiled and took out a stack of books and documents. I really had something serious to discuss with the senior leaders of the Holy Church.
"What teacher said this in Estrada's Quotes"
Oops, I really expected that this is actually my junior brother, so it will be even more fulfilling to cheat.
"Actually, we can have a good chat about the belief in pure holy light and the pillar of holy light in Hades."
When I walked out of the hotel whistling, Harborough's face was as ugly as ever as he hurriedly said goodbye.
It's just a casual move, and I don't necessarily need to gain anything.
Anyway, as long as the two top leaders of the Theocracy are fighting among themselves, it is a good thing. If the Pope lacks trust in Gabolo, it would be better to transfer him.
And now, it’s time for me to run away, or the dark part of the Holy Church should also mobilize experts. The church’s foundation is still very strong. The senior officials of the Trial Department and even Estrada have a headache.
No, Harbor was sent here just to stabilize me.
There are also those pervasive bounty hunters. Even if they are not too difficult to deal with, I don’t want to cause trouble. It seems that the bounty on my head is enough to build a city.
"Tsk, it's safe in the city. Will you be unlucky if you go out?"
So, as soon as I left the city, I released the floating mage tower without hesitation. To be continued in Eternal Night City.
