Chapter 359 Is this the magnanimity of the Holy Kingdom?
"Peach Color" Isadro noticed that Tang Zheng was calm, and also picked up the black tea on the table, thinking about something.
The mission to the Silian Theocracy was not complicated. The most important task was to follow Lord Kuirat's instructions and try to win over Captain Tang, who was a steel-level "free will".
However, through observations over the past few days.
He found that the Church seemed to value Captain Tang more than Lord Kuirat had expected.
Especially what happened today.
This forced "Peach Color" Isadro to make deeper considerations.
From the national perspective.
Because of an adventurer, a conflict has arisen between the country and the Church, which must be avoided at all costs!
In Isaacdro's heart, he had the thought of giving up on Captain Tang, even though he also admired him.
After all, the other party is an adventurer.
Since he is from the Kingdom of Re-Estize, even if we can win him over, the benefits we can gain will be very limited.
"I don't care whether that old guy is really dead or faking his death!"
"The Church's current actions are forcibly restricting us, these self-righteous guys!"
Remedios looked unhappy and spoke in annoyance.
"Captain..." Isaacdro's face turned bitter and he quickly spoke up to stop him.
"Shut up!"
Remedios' eyes widened, and his sharp gaze swept towards Izadro: "Tolerating again and again will only make the Theocracy more reckless!"
Speaking of which!
Remedios turned his head, his fluffy brown hair slightly raised, and looked at Tang Zheng passionately, with a hint of excitement in his tone: "How about we make a big scene, Tang?"
"For example, first catch that annoying Clementine and break her arms and legs. Anyway, the Theocracy knows that I have had several conflicts with her."
"As long as I don't kill her, the Theocracy can't do anything to me."
Remedios spoke in a haughty voice.
This is not arrogance, but a fact. Given Remedios's status, as long as Clementine is not killed, the Theocracy will not escalate the matter.
"Captain!"
"Peach Color" Izadro's expression changed completely and his voice became heavier.
It’s fine to say this kind of thing in private!
Now, not only is it said in front of outsiders, but the attitude revealed in the team leader's words will also allow Team Leader Tang to further understand their attitude and even gain a certain degree of initiative.
“For the honor of the Holy Kingdom!” Remedios responded bluntly.
"Peachy" Izadro opened his mouth.
Tang was holding a cup of red tea, his eyes swept over the "black" Pavel who remained silent on the other side.
Although these three people are all "Nine Colors".
Pavel's status was obviously the lowest. Remedios and the other two were the leader and vice-leader of the Paladin Order, respectively. They were more familiar and closer, and their status was similar.
The two were talking, and Black Pavel had no right to interrupt.
Keen intuition.
Black Pavel felt Tang Zheng's gaze the first time. Just as he was about to nod in response, his narrow eyelids suddenly became terrifying.
boom!
"Who?"
"Black" Pavel stood up suddenly, his eyes as sharp as needles, looking around the whole hall coldly, and then took out a black short staff from his pocket.
"Life detection!"
The short staff emitted a faint green light.
It creates magical fluctuations that are invisible to the naked eye and quickly explores the surroundings.
"what happened?"
Remedios's face also turned cold.
Observed briefly.
"Lord Remedios, I just noticed someone was watching here."
The light from the short staff in Black Pavel’s hand faded away, and doubt and hesitation appeared on his face behind the mask. He then responded respectfully:
"It's just... I didn't find anything. Maybe it's an illusion."
Remedios's expression eased slightly.
A hint of surprise flashed across Tang Zheng's eyes. It should be said that "Black" Pavel was indeed a heroic "guerrilla soldier" with a sharp intuition.
There were more than just four of them in the room at the moment.
To be exact, there are 5 people in total!
"Skill "Ninjutsu·Hide" discovered, requires high-level profession "Ninja", current conditions are met"
"Do you want to spend one skill point to learn it?"
Tang Zheng glanced at the attribute panel in front of him. He had already noticed it when he entered the room.
Ninja profession?
If it weren't for what Remedios said just now, the hidden person would have moved.
I’m afraid that Black Pavel will never be able to find it.
Such strength and profession.
The only one that meets the requirements is "Heaven and Earth" from the "Black Scripture".
It really is valued by the Christian country.
It has only been a short period of time, but the members of the [Black Scripture] have already met several of them.
but!
This is actually a good thing for Tang Zheng.
The members of the [Black Scripture] were dispatched one after another, which actually showed that the number of strong people in the field of heroes in the church was similar to that shown in the original work.
"This is the territory of the Church after all."
Tang Zheng pretended to be calm, put the red teacup in his hand on the table, and said with a smile:
"We are now restricted and may even be under surveillance."
"Tian Shang Di Xia" who was hiding in the hall retreated cautiously to the back and moved closer to the wall. A little cold sweat appeared on the forehead of his hidden face.
“We were almost discovered!”
"Monitoring four heroic warriors is a tough job."
The figure dressed as a ninja in red and black tights muttered to himself.
The consequences of being discovered will be very troublesome!
Moreover, facing four people at one against each other, even with his strength, he dared not be careless.
"Tang, what do you think of my proposal just now?" Remedios asked with renewed anticipation, his face full of eagerness to try.
"Although I am a little unhappy, this is not a good suggestion."
Tang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "Actually, I have a better idea."
"Okay." Remedios was quite disappointed, but did not insist.
This attitude surprised Isaacdro, he knew the leader's character very well, he would be more persistent when he wanted to do something.
To put it bluntly, it means being stubborn!
When did you become so talkative?
If he said that, the response to him would definitely be "this is an order or something", and it would take some effort to dispel the leader's unreliable idea.
"Captain Tang, what do you think?"
"Peach Color" Izadro suppressed the doubts in his heart and spoke solemnly.
He didn't intend to let the team leader respond, otherwise, with the team leader's "wisdom", it would be easy for him to be led by the other party and produce unpredictable results.
"I'm sure everyone must be curious about the real reason why the Silian Theocracy invited me here."
Tang Zheng placed his palms lightly on the table, paying close attention to the movements of the hidden "Heaven and Earth", while continuing to speak:
"Remember the 'Angel of Glory' summoned by Captain Negan during the Abelion Hill incident?"
As soon as these words came out.
The faces of Remedios and the other two froze. Anyone who saw that powerful and terrifying angel would be deeply impressed.
No matter how stupid Remedios was, he knew that this was definitely not a force that they, humans, could resist!
"Pink" When Isadro saw Tang Zhengzheng suddenly mentioned this angel with the power of the devil, he thought more about it.
"Whether it's angels or other summoned monsters, there is a time limit. This is also one of the drawbacks of summoning magic."
Tang Zheng's voice suddenly lowered a few degrees: "And the Church used the "fusion potion" to allow angels and monsters to have the possibility of existing longer."
He gave some general information about the data that the Church was researching.
The whole hall suddenly became quiet!
The expressions of Remedios, Pink Izadro, and Black Pavel changed completely, and were filled with solemnity and disbelief.
No blocking?
Tang Zheng observed that after he told "Heaven and Earth", there was no intention to stop him.
"Just responsible for surveillance?"
"Or is it simply to prevent the information of Juesijieming from being leaked?"
Several thoughts flashed through Tang Zheng's mind. He looked at the three people from the Holy Kingdom and suddenly noticed that "Pink" Isadro's face looked a little ugly.
Remedios and "Black" Pavel were more surprised and incredulous!
"I see."
Tang Zheng understood in his heart why the people from "Heaven and Earth" or the Church did not care about him telling the people of the Holy Kingdom about the information about the potion.
"Your potion actually has such an effect!"
After being surprised, Remedios looked at Tang Zheng excitedly, and said in an excited tone:
"No wonder the Church, after failing to find you, stole the potion you gave us. What a despicable bunch of people!"
"That old guy died at the right time. He restricted us at this time just to prevent you from leaving."
Remedios learned to think at this moment. He stood up unconsciously and paced on the spot. His sharp eyes became more determined:
"We must not let such a precious potion fall into the hands of the Church!"
"We will now..."
"no!"
A rather oppressive voice sounded.
The usually peaceful Izadro showed his courage as the vice-captain of the Paladins for the first time and interrupted Remedios.
"Sorry, Captain Tang."
"This matter is too important. We need to return to the Holy Kingdom and discuss it with His Highness and the ministers before we can make a decision."
"Peach Color" Isadro also stood up, bowed slightly to Tang Zheng, and spoke to express his apology.
It is obvious that he has plans to cut ties with Tang Zheng!
"Peach-colored" Izadro's expression was tense, and a hint of fear flashed deep in his eyes.
It’s not that he doesn’t covet this power.
But this "benefit" has exceeded the price their Holy Kingdom can pay!
As one of the witnesses of the hill incident, he was naturally very clear about how powerful the "Angel of Glorious Glory" was.
If the Theocracy uses the power of potions to create a "Majestic Archangel" that can exist for a long time, just one will be enough to collapse the entire Holy Kingdom's defenses!
Even if the potion fell into the hands of the Holy Kingdom, they did not have the ability of the Theocracy to summon the highest-level angels.
The country simply does not have equal power to contend with!
When "benefits" far exceed the price that can be paid, then "benefits" and "greed" will become poison!
"Captain, let's leave for now."
Isaacro turned around and spoke to Remedios. To prevent the captain from getting carried away, he said seriously:
"This is what Lord Kuirat told me in advance. I have the right to make the final decision!"
Remedios felt embarrassed. As his subordinate, he actually retorted to his boss: "Who do you think you are talking to?"
See the situation in front of you.
"Haha."
Tang Zheng relaxed on the sofa and suddenly laughed out loud:
"Is this the magnanimity of the Holy Kingdom?"
Remedios, Pink Izadro, and Black Pavel all looked over at the same time.
"Captain Tang..." "Pink" Isadro looked grim.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to be sarcastic."
Tang Zheng interrupted directly, his face calm:
"Have you ever thought about why I invited you to come to the Holy Kingdom with me?"
"Is it just to protect against the Theocracy?"
He never thought that the Holy Kingdom would confront the Silian Theocracy head-on just because of the potential he had shown.
After all.
The interests of the country are above everything else!
If the "cost" is higher than the "benefit", even the most ordinary businessman knows what to choose.
Since they dared to come to the Silian Theocracy, Tang Zheng even secretly planned to connect the two countries and the hilly area in a straight line. Naturally, he had a trump card.
And this trump card lies in the Holy Kingdom!
Several people from the Holy Kingdom felt that they did not have equal conditions with the Silian Theocracy, which was exactly wrong.
This time, it is the Holy Kingdom that has the upper hand!
And expose their strength and use tough means to bring them together.
This is the worst option before the great tomb descends. He doesn't want to be targeted before the Bone King appears.
"And the only one who can fully utilize this advantage is me!"
The smile on Tang Zheng's face grew wider and wider, and he looked at the people from the Holy Kingdom with a deep gaze:
"Everyone, although I am an adventurer, I also know that those who can sit at the negotiation table and discuss conditions must have equal qualifications."
"Although I'm not sure whether you will believe what I say, I just need your assistance. You will gain benefits far beyond your imagination from this negotiation."
"To be precise, it is a trump card that is completely equal to that of the Silian Theocracy!"
"Peach Color" Isadro frowned deeply. He did not believe what Tang Zheng said.
How could the other party possibly understand the country's background and strength better than himself, even if he didn't want to admit it in his heart.
Isaacdro also knew that the Silian Theocracy was more powerful than the Holy Kingdom.
"I believe you, Don!"
"What do we need to do next?" Remedios asked without hesitation.
"Captain!" "Pink" Isadro's cheeks twitched, and he suddenly felt powerless.
Why did the Lord of Kuilat arrange for the captain to come along? If he had known this, he would have arranged for another deputy captain to assist.
