Chapter 18 Crisis in the Church

The speaker was an old man over 60 years old. Although he sat in Regnahou's drooping hand, he had been silent before. But at this moment, he immediately attracted the attention of all the nobles in the audience, as if the entire conference room was leaning towards him...

Of course, it is not ordinary people who can have such aura. The old man is named Soril Fros, one of the four major dukes of the Empire, the contemporary head of the Fros family, guarding the vast sea of ​​trees, and the Grand Duke Fros!

Chaos Forest is a general term for the large subtropical jungle in the southwestern part of West Carlo State. In fact, as a vast forest that stretches for thousands of miles, Chaos Forest is also divided into many areas. The territory of Regnath is located on the east side of the Chaos Forest, close to the Mediterranean Sea, which also includes the passage between the Lion Heart Empire and the Orn Empire.

Therefore, the Regner family was naturally the family that had the most frequent contact with the Orn Empire, and Regnerhou was also appointed as the commander of this war. However, the Regner family was not the most prominent nobleman near the Chaos Forest.

In the west of the Chaotic Forest, there is a large dense forest hundreds of kilometers wide, which is vividly called the Endless Tree Sea! By the way, when Zhao Qiankun teleported over, the endless dense forest he saw belonged to this Endless Tree Sea. However, he was in the territory of the Orn Empire and looked north from south to north.

To the north of the Sea of ​​Endless Trees, which is the largest territory in the south of the Lion Heart Empire, is the Fros Territory, which is adjacent to the Endless Sea and the Sea of ​​Endless Trees. The owner of this territory is the old man who speaks.

Grand Duke Fros!

"Joan of Arc..." Grand Duke Fros said leisurely: "The rules of the world have changed. I received a message from Luca not long ago that the church is facing a great enemy in the series of turmoil in Sicarlo, because many of the forces of the church were mysteriously removed. The Pope believes that the turmoil in various countries is not a coincidence, but has some internal connection... But even the church cannot see the darkness behind it and is helpless in all this..."

After hearing the words of Grand Duke Fros, Joan of Arc couldn't help but take a breath!

The full name of Luca in the Grand Duke is Luca Fros, the son of Grand Duke Fros. Like Joan of Arc, he is also a Paladin!

There are twenty-seven Paladins in the Sicarlo State. It is naturally impossible that only Odygus and Joan of Arc are among the largest Lion Heart Empire.

But this Luca is still a little different from Joan of Arc. Although Joan of Arc is a paladin, he is still a person from the Lion Heart Empire. He usually lives in the city of Karentis and will be summoned by the church when necessary.

But Luka was different. He swore to be completely loyal to the church, and even gave up the right to inherit the Fross leadership and gave up his status as a noble. At this cost, Luka obtained the secret of the Starry Temple, which could use the Starry God Art to greatly improve its strength through physical transformation and the use of the Starry God Art. They were far more responsible than ordinary paladins! And they were only responsible for the church, and they lived on Caroline Island, and would only go out when performing special tasks.

Although Luca and Joan of Arc both belong to the category of Paladins in the concept of the masses, there are strict divisions within the Paladins. Those who know the inside story often call the Paladins directly under the sacred temples the Star Knight!

There are twenty-seven paladins in the entire temple, and only five of them can be called Star Knights. Among them, the oldest and most powerful one is the Pope's personal guard, the old gray-clothed swordsman. No one knows who the old swordsman is named and what age he is. He only knows that all Star Knights must be under his guidance to master the magic of starry stars. He is the mentor of all Star Knights, so people call him Gray Teacher.

And the remaining four, when the ancient dragon recovered, among the thirteen Paladins who took the lead, in addition to Odygus and Joan of Arc, there were two dragon knights with dragon mounts, that were the two star knights!

The remaining two star knights, including Luca, were appointed an important task at that time, not on Caroline Island, so they did not participate in the Dragon Slaying Operation.

Now, as far as Joan of Arc knows, Luca should have been sent to the Fenx Empire in the southeast of the mainland, representing the Holy Church to intervene in the prince's war for the throne, and attempting to preside over the election of the heirs of the throne.

Normally, the Star Knight, who has sworn to completely loyal to the church, should be considered to be a divorce from his original nationality. Although he has not yet severed relations with his family, he will not do anything harmful to the church for the sake of so-called family affection.

Now, Luca was able to send a message back to his father to the church, and the old Duke of Fros dared to make it public so calmly, which at least shows two points!

First, Luka noticed something in the Fenx Empire and began to worry about the safety of her family.

Second, what the Grand Duke of Fros said should be true. The Holy Church really suffered a secret loss in the chaos of the mainland and encountered an unsolvable enemy. Sicarlo State is indeed about to undergo earth-shaking changes!

Joan of Arc, who knew the rules of the church well, quickly analyzed these two points. She chose to believe the words of Grand Duke Fros: "You mean... there is some kind of power to fight against the church?"

Fros smiled: "At least, it's a fight against order! The mainland is going to have big trouble! Should we keep the inherent old order and be swallowed by the upcoming chaos, or should we take the opportunity to strengthen ourselves, establish an unbreakable new order, and hold our position in the chaos... I think, without saying that, everyone knows how to choose!"

"I think that the more turbulent the period, the more we should unite and keep the order of the world!" Joan of Arc argued: "What we do now is to let the chaos come early! No matter who is secretly tampering with it, our civil strife is exactly what they think!"

But now, no one can listen to it! The words of the Grand Duke made many nobles of the Lion Heart Empire feel a sense of crisis, and at the same time they also made them more eager for a larger territory and a stronger force! Everyone began to support the siege. Under such public opinion, Joan of Arc seemed to be light and unable to turn around.

Faced with these nobles who were obsessed with greed, Joan of Arc's persuasion was only her prominent reputation and powerful personal power. However, the status of the Wing, she, a royal branch, is not necessarily nobler than the duke... And Wing Power, sorry, before obtaining the transformation of the magical arts, Luca, who was already a fifth-level warrior at that time, never beat his father once!
