Seeing the cross in Amy's hand, Ella was surprised: "Amy, what does this mean? Where did you get this thing?"
"It was given to me by a priest who saved me."
Amy waved the cross in front of Ella and asked again:
"Your Majesty, what do you think of the Tianfang Empire?"
Upon hearing this question, Ella's face suddenly darkened: "Amy, you know, the Tianfang Empire killed my father and mother."
Ella's eyes, expression, and tone were all cold, making Amy feel like she had entered an ice cellar. Seeing this scene, Amy didn't say anything more, and threw the cross in her hand away.
Just as the cross landed, the sound of footsteps came from outside the cabin.
The owner of the footsteps came to the door and said to Ella in the room through the door: "King of Sweden, the news just came from Bremen, because there are commotions throughout the Alemannic Federation, it is more dangerous.
So the talks scheduled for tomorrow will be postponed,"
"Commotion?" Ella was surprised, "For what reason?"
"Civilians of the Alemannic Federation are besieging churches across Alemannic! There are also many businessmen involved. It is said that more than half of the nobles have acquiesced in the actions of the civilians. The scene is extremely chaotic! The priests and nuns of the Hamburg city church have been tied up
They were put on public display in the square, and many priests in other places were arrested and burned at the stake!"
"There is a conflict between the Alemannic Federation and the Church of the Tianfang Empire?" Amy heard this and shouted excitedly, "Your Majesty! You are indeed right, the Alemannic Federation is our hidden alliance..."
Amy swallowed the last half of the sentence - she noticed that the expression on Ella's face was changing rapidly, like the cloudy sky in summer.
"Amy...I may never be able to become a qualified king."
"...What does your Majesty mean by this?"
"...I want to help the Abrahamic Orthodox priests."
"Your Majesty, are you crazy?" Amy was so shocked that she almost jumped up from the bed, "What about the strategy you just mentioned? You finally signed a contract with the Alemanni Federation! If you do this, you will break the peace.
Peace between the Alemannic Federation!”
…
…
Cologne is the center of the Abrahamic Orthodox Church in the Alemannic Federation. Two towering spiers overlooking the entire town are the Cologne Cathedral. But now, this place is also under siege.
Those participating in the siege were farmers and craftsmen. They held sickles, pitchforks and hammers in their hands. Some businessmen funded them with a cart of oil, and others brought torches.
"Devil! Don't try to lie to us again!" they shouted at the church, "go to hell with your god!"
From one of the steeples, Gregory looked down at the dark crowd below, with many priests following him.
"Lord Gregory, please teach these damn heretics a lesson!" a priest said.
His words immediately aroused a chorus of responses:
"Yes, Lord Gregory, these people do not deserve redemption!"
"Lord Gregory, send them to hell!"
…
…
"Is it up to you to decide whether you can be saved and whether you should go to hell?"
Gregory turned around and looked reproachfully at the group of priests who had just made a fuss. Those priests immediately realized that they had said the wrong thing.
"How much can teaching them a lesson or killing them increase the number of followers of God?"
Gregory's second question made the priests hang their heads in shame.
"But... Lord Gregory," someone whispered, "we can't let them burn down our church, can we?"
"Since I'm here, they can't come in, and the church can't be burned down."
As Gregory said, the group failed to successfully break into the church.
The door of the church was less than five steps away from the people in the front row, but even if they ran for a long time, the church was still five steps in front of them. The surrounding scenery remained the same, and the distance between the church and them neither increased nor decreased.
, as if they were standing still.
This aroused fear in the hearts of everyone. They no longer tried to approach the church, but grabbed the oil can and poured the oil into the church. After pouring the oil, people threw torches to the place where the oil was poured.
When the fire came into contact with the oil, it suddenly ignited, causing everyone to cheer. However, although the fire ignited, it quickly extinguished. It only burned on the surface of the church for a while, and after the oil burned out, it
He died. Not only was the church not blackened, but it looked as if it had taken a bath and looked whiter than before.
People were helpless against the church under the protection of Gregory, but they were unwilling to disperse like this, so they continued to gather outside the church and loudly insulted the priests in the church.
Gregory and the priests below him were indifferent to this.
Late at night, those who besieged Cologne Cathedral left angrily.
"They should not come here for the time being." Gregory said to the priests, "I am going to Hamburg to investigate this incident. You stay here and do not have any physical conflicts with them."
"Hamburg City? Master Gregory, I'm afraid there are no believers there now! If you want to go, you must also find a way to find Master Clodis and ask him to go there for you!"
"Claudius is so elusive that it might be too late to find him."
"However, Lord Gregory's power will be greatly weakened in the land occupied by pagans!"
"When we first came to Alemannic, was there a believer in Alemannic? Was it not me, you, you who traveled thousands of miles and preached everywhere, which led to the current scene?"
Gregory looked at the priests with some reproach.
“Isn’t the dark place far away from God’s grace and glory the place we should go to?”
"Lord Gregory, if something happens to you, it will be a huge loss to the Tianfang Empire..."
"I am an apostle, so shouldn't I go? You all know that there must be four apostles. Even if I die, a successor will appear within a year, what impact will it have on the empire?"
The priests were speechless and speechless.
So Gregory left them, closed his eyes, and disappeared from where he was.
——He suddenly opened his eyes in the darkness.
He failed to reach the city of Hamburg.
The unprecedented huge resistance blocked him in the deserted suburbs. There was nothing there, only the infinite darkness from the sky.
There was a sharp pain in his right arm, which made him roll his eyes. In a daze, Gregory found that his right hand was horribly twisted, like a twist.
He finally realized that the situation in Hamburg was much worse than he imagined.
"Shouldn't you run so far all at once...?"
He couldn't help the pain coming from his right arm and fainted.
