062 The roadblock

062 The roadblock

The Holy Emperor's actions can be said to be decisive. On the second day of our discussion, he issued a notice that the six elders resigned collectively and were no longer responsible for the position of elders.

For a moment, the entire temple caused a sensation.

From ancient times to the present, the temple has only eight positions, and at least three, but there have never been such an elder collective resignation, and it is impossible to even think about it.

But today, something like this happened suddenly.

The entire temple boiled to the extreme in an instant, and a chaos that had not been seen for a long time appeared.

For a moment, the Holy Emperor was forced to stand at the storm of the wind, and countless archbishops started to move. So many elders resigned, and the elder's position was forced to be vacant. It would be fine for a few days, but for ten or half a month, the temple would definitely not work normally. Whether it was for the temple or for their own, many archbishops who were qualified to compete for the elders wanted to see the Holy Emperor.

As a result, I was blocked from outside.

To be honest, I have nothing to do with this kind of offending people, but the Holy Emperor said that he needs some time to deal with the elders’ resignation, as well as the plans for leaking top-secret information, and the whereabouts of these elders after resignation.

It requires a certain amount of time, so no matter who comes to the door, you will never see him.

I said, "You'll just call a group of Templars to guard the gate and don't let anyone in." As a result, the Holy Emperor told me kindly, "That group of people cannot do it, they can't hold back the situation."

"You mean...I must."

"There are still a few suitable candidates, but I still hope you can do it."

"Why?"

"Because you are brave and powerful, and you sneak into the Light Conference and capture the second apostle alive. The contribution you made is enough to make everyone lose it. They will not force you with their identity and status, don't worry."

The Holy Emperor patted my shoulder and raised three fingers, "Three days, give me three days, I will handle everything, and then you will be free."

So I agreed.

As a result, things happened, it was not as what the Holy Emperor said. The surging archbishops were more ruthless than the other. They really didn't dare to suppress my identity and status, but those hundreds of mouths could make me faint even if I spoke with one word.

Especially the first Archbishop to come to see the Holy Emperor, Archbishop Reinhardt.

This bishop, who was over 100 years old, worked diligently for the temple for more than 80 years. From a small trainee priest to his position today, I don’t know how many storms I have experienced. The years have left countless marks on him, but they cannot erase his feelings for the temple.

When he first appeared, I even thought the Holy Emperor was standing in front of me.

That kind of momentum, those eyes, those gray hair and wrinkles on the face, was noble, majestic, sacred, but kind, without much airs, but free and convincing aura.

"I want to see the Holy Emperor, please inform me!"

When he looked at me with his eyes full of wisdom, I felt a kind of spiritual oppression.

However, this kind of oppression does not have much advantage for me. I once faced the devil Pandora. Her existence is not something that humans can resist. I have endured the impact on my soul, not to mention the old man who is only over 100 years old in front of me.

"Sorry, Archbishop Reinhart, the Holy Emperor said that he would handle some urgent matters. Within three days, no matter who comes, no guests will be seen!"

I said neither arrogant nor humble.

A trace of surprise flashed in Reinhardt's eyes, and he did not hide my observation. I slowly said, "If Archbishop Reinhardt has any urgent matters and can handle them by himself. If he can't handle them, please come again in three days."

"I can't handle this matter and I don't have the ability to suppress it until three days later!" Reinhardt said, shaking his head.

"That's really a pity." I said with regret.

Reinhardt was slightly suffocated, thinking that I said this to you, you wouldn't let me in, too much, and there was a little bit of anger on my face.

"Your Excellency, I must meet the Holy Emperor today. This matter cannot be delayed anymore!"

"Sorry, I don't think there is anything more important than the Holy Emperor's affairs. Please come back, Archbishop Reinhardt!" With a wave of my hand, I issued a direct order to expel guests.

Reinhardt's face changed slightly, but he quickly stopped his anger, closed his eyes and thought for a few minutes, and his frown brows slightly relaxed.

"Okay, things have come to this point, it's useless to say more, so say goodbye!"

"please!"

After sending Reinhardt away, I breathed a sigh of relief. This old guy is not only strong enough, but also has a high status. He was originally qualified to be the seventh elder, but later he refused because of some things. So he is still an archbishop, but few people in the temple regard him as an archbishop.

Everyone thought it was only a matter of time before he became an elder, so few people from all over the country dared to give him a face.

When I was bored and told Liu Huo about this matter, I immediately amaze the other party.

"Captain really likes to show off the limelight?" Liuhuo said with a wry smile, which surprised me a little, "How can I be called to show off? I am just ordering the Holy Emperor."

"But you refused too firmly!" Liu Huo said: "Captain, you should be more polite."

"Shangyan is not my style."

"That's why the captain likes to show off."

You sister, if I hadn't known how to politely refuse, you would have thought I really didn't want to politely.

What surprised me was that since I sent Archbishop Reinhart, I passed by very peacefully on the first day, and no one came to pay homage to Lord Holy Emperor again.

After seeing this situation, Liuhuo's brows also frowned.

"Probably because Captain, after you rejected Archbishop Reinhart, others saw this and would not be boring if they were absolutely sure."

"Isn't this very good? Why are you frowning?" I asked in confusion.

"In this way, the captain will inevitably be isolated."

"I'm isolated, what does it mean?"

"I have been guessing what the Holy Emperor wants to do in three days. Three days are not long or short. There can be said to be many things that can be done, but it can also be said to be very few. After all, three days are too much..."

"Tell me the point!" I threw out a peanut impatiently and interrupted his nonsense.

"Okay, let's talk about the key points." Liu Huo said calmly: "The consequences of the collective resignation of the six elders are too serious. Not to mention three days, even if you give the Holy Emperor three months, it may not be able to deal with it completely. Therefore, teasing the new elders is imperative, but how to choose these people is a difficult problem, so Lord Saint Emperor has a question."

I frowned slightly, raised my head thoughtfully, and looked in the direction of the Holy Emperor Hall.

"The Holy Emperor gave many people three days. No matter what method they used, as long as they see him within three days, they are qualified to become a new elder. Now, the Holy Emperor is waiting for them in the Holy Emperor Hall. He wants to see who is the first to see him."

Liuhuo chuckled and said, "But if you see the Holy Emperor easily, it will not be a test, so the Holy Emperor has the first and last problem."

"Do I...?"

"Yes, the Holy Emperor asked you to intercept everyone outside, just to see who can cross your threshold and see him. Although everyone is a question, a problem, a threshold, and a command, if you block their promotion path, they will isolate you."

At the end of the day, Liuhuo sighed.

"Knowing and accepting are completely different things."

"So he treated me as a gun." After knowing this, I couldn't laugh or cry.

Liuhuo shook his head and said, "This may not be necessary. Maybe it is a huge favor. The threshold set by the Holy Emperor is you. Who can go over it? It is the captain who has the final say. If the handling is done well, the new elders owe you favors. So what if they are isolated by other archbishops."

I have never been very familiar with Yin's tricks and other things.

Especially this time, it seems simple to block the door, there are so many curves inside, without the analysis of the fire, I really can't think of it.

But since Liuhuo said a few words, why don’t I understand how many archbishops are put in so that the Holy Emperor can also be happy?

"Although I don't know what you are going to do, at least I'd better not put anyone in. After all, these are just my guesses. Whether it's right or wrong. If I guess wrong..."

Liuhuo shook his head slightly, obviously feeling embarrassed about the consequences.

So the next day, I was still standing in front of the Holy Emperor Hall, like a sect god to stop all the archbishops who were trying to see the Holy Emperor. The number of people coming this day was dozens of times higher than yesterday.

Most of them were blocked by me, and until in the end, there were three left rumbling around me, saying some upset words loudly.

Finally, I was helpless, and then a terrifying holy power burst out, blowing away all those who troubled me.

"Don't meet, don't meet. Who dares to bother me again? I will call each other when I see you." The ultimatum issued, and the fewer Archbishops who came to visit suddenly.

There are still constant in the morning, but in the afternoon, there are no doors left.

At dusk the next day, the sun sets and the afterglow falls on the earth, throwing a faint magnificent color on the temple.

At this moment, a man in his fifties appeared in his archbishop's robe.

He walked step by step, stepping on the afterglow of the sunset, like a god.

Every step of the man seemed to be measured with a ruler. His black hair was meticulously combed, without amazing momentum, plain stones on the roadside and fish in the water, without any strangeness.

But I clearly felt that the sacred power in his body was like an endless ocean, almost no worse than the Holy Emperor in his heyday...
