Chapter 83: Teller City
very messy!
This was Leo's subconscious thought, and Uncle Vint on the side obviously had a similar thought. The weird face explained everything.
These bigwigs of the royal capital still play games, making them, the country nobles, stunned.
After all, according to the news Leo got from Master Dreit, the relationship between Cardinal Haitings and the Klein family was rather harmonious because of the Life Torrent Necklace.
"Then where is she now?" Leo couldn't help frowning. The appearance of Maritis was too strange. The thing she took out was the main material of the Life Torrent Necklace, and it happened to be under the guise of the queen.
"Of course he ran out of the city with accessories," Card Haitings said with a wry smile. "After all, she is also the legal wife of Baron Charlesson, and it is impossible for me to watch her all the time."
"Is there no whereabouts at all?" Leo frowned. This is also the cardinal of the dignified Dawn Holy See. His potential strength should not be underestimated. How could he be so weak?
"It's not too late. After the incident, I also sent orders to all the dioceses to fully track down the whereabouts of Maritis," Cardinal Haitings said, shaking his head gently, "I heard that the priest from the small town of Merck came to me before. After the news, it was suspected that they had seen the trace of the other party, but soon, the group set off in a hurry.
The last news came, it should be heading for Teller City, but Teller City is the territory of Earl Eldred, and he is very hostile to our Dawn Holy See, so it should be the Klein family who is continuing to cooperate with Earl Eldred negotiated. After all, you also know the current situation in the Kingdom of Lions. "
Leo couldn't help laughing bitterly, and indeed, in many kingdom territories, people are more willing to be loyal to their own lords rather than the orders of the kingdom's high-level officials. Unstoppable", but there are still four great powers that are comparable to the Lion Kingdom.
After all, there is no one king to rule. Under the separate powers, many things are particularly troublesome. In the realm without the lord, it is not bad. The influence of Cardinal Haitings on the kingdom is not too big, but Even so, in Earl Eldred's territory, it was difficult for him to exert his strength.
"I'll see if I can help. I think Cardinal Haitings, you should and should hope to find Maritis as soon as possible, so that the life torrent can be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise the Klein family is in urgent need of this chain. I paid a huge price and paid you everything in advance, but also..." Leo said rather implicitly.
"That's natural," Cardinal Haitings nodded, frowned slightly, and immediately took out a milky white token. The token was neither jade nor iron. He was refreshed for a while.
"This is the blessing of dawn. Holding this token represents the friendship of the Holy See at dawn. You can get help from the Holy See in the major dioceses." Haitings said lightly, "I also hope that you can find Maritis as soon as possible. , dare to deceive the faithful of the goddess in Pendor, she should be burned on a cross."
"Don't worry, this is also my duty," Leo also replied with a smile.
……
"Uncle Vint, did you know him before?" Leo still didn't hold back his doubts and looked at Uncle Vint beside him.
What is the identity of this Uncle Vint? Previously, Leo could confirm through observation that Uncle Wente did not know much about the capital, but he had an extraordinary relationship with Cardinal Haitings of the Holy See of the Dawn, who lived in the capital and had a high status.
If it wasn't for Uncle Went's presence, Leo felt that it would be difficult for him to ask about that kind of privacy.
"I was familiar with him a long time ago. He is one of the few normal people in the Holy See of Dawn," Uncle Went frowned and added again, "A normal person who is not so irritable, at least, he will not be like the ordinary Dawn knight. Burn people first and then ask questions.
Unexpectedly, now he has quit the Knights of Dawn and became a cardinal of the Holy See, but this is normal, and there are not many people with normal brains in the Holy See of Dawn. "
tsk tsk...
Leo said with a playful smile. Indeed, the reputation of these Dawn Holy Sees is not very good. They act rudely and recklessly against heresies. They are a group of fanatical people, especially the Dawn Knights. Brain fanatic.
Of course, although their three views are quite distorted, they really don't say anything about fighting against demons, especially the Knights of Dawn.
When the army of demons came into the world, even a small group of Dawn knights would wave long swords and lances and charge towards the army of demons. Therefore, people on the mainland had a very complicated attitude towards the Holy See of Dawn.
However, as Uncle Went said, the Holy See of Dawn under the leadership of Cardinal Haitings in the Kingdom of Lions is much more rational than the Holy See of Dawn in other places.
"Actually, young master, you can maintain a good relationship with him. After all, the Holy See of Dawn is also a behemoth, and with Haitings's wisdom as credit, it may not be impossible to take charge of the Holy See of Dawn in the future." Uncle Wente hesitated slightly and added again. road.
Leo took a breath, but after thinking about it, it became clear that the Lion Kingdom is one of the top five kingdoms in the continent, and even faintly the most powerful kingdom of the five kingdoms, and its special The environment made it not reject foreign beliefs in the Kingdom of Lions.
Being able to serve as the cardinal of the Diocese of the Kingdom of the Lion Kingdom, Haitings' status in the Holy See of Dawn, I am afraid, is only one of the few, and it may not be known if we go further in the future, but can the cardinal be elected Pope? Leo didn't know much about it either.
"It's natural," Leo didn't resist Uncle Winter's reminder, and he didn't feel much ill will when he got along with Haitings.
"My lord," Brown on the side was quite excited when he saw Leo coming out. After all, they were quite afraid of the Holy See's territory at Dawn. The force of this church is enough to wipe out the Wind Patrol, and it is terrifying to the extreme. Dawn knights, even if there are only a few, are enough to make them have no power to fight back.
But fortunately, Leo seemed to have a good chat with Cardinal Haitings. They clearly saw that the attitude of these priests towards Leo had changed from initial indifference to quite awe.
My lord is really a social person...cough...he is really popular, Brown subconsciously sighed, after all, whether it is Master Dreit or this Cardinal Haitings, they are not ordinary people, and their wind patrols came up to contact , is likely to eat a closed door.
Even the former cruiser Brandt could hardly get any respect here, especially Cardinal Haitings, but he didn't expect that Leo's shot would obviously improve everything.
"Let's go, I've already got the results I want, go back to the headquarters first, deal with the recent affairs, and then notify the branch in Teller City, let them search for Maritis with all their strength," Leo said lightly, " Brown followed me personally to Teller City in the afternoon.
As for Bella, I will leave everything in the capital to you first. If anything happens, you must notify me as soon as possible. "
Bella's personality is much calmer than Brown's It is suitable for housekeeping. Brown's thinking is more detached, which may be of some help.
"Ah?" Sure enough, Brown and Bella were surprised, and Brown asked in a low voice, "Sir, what about the Klein family?"
"Why, do you really want to check the Klein family head-on? Well, you attack to see the queen, I don't have the courage," Leo rolled his eyes and said.
"Of course he wouldn't dare," Brown said with a smirk, "Could it be that Maritis has something to do with the Klein family?"
"Yes," Leo said with a wry smile, "he is Charles Klein's wife, I suspect it has something to do with the Snake Worship Cult, and now I can't offend the queen, so let's start from the side."
Persimmons, naturally they have to pick them up softly first. Right now, they don't have enough evidence. Even if they really have a complete chain of evidence, would they still dare to confront the queen?
That's really absurd. Maybe the queen's family will be cleaned up by King Ulric, but they know about this scandal, and coupled with the strength of the queen's family to counterattack, Leo and others will definitely be in big trouble.
Right now, we can only appease the Klein family first, then find Maritis, and finally see if we can try to clear the relationship between the Klein family.
For a time, Leo thought of the old man with a faint playful smile, the old Marquis Budden. The other party's confidence at that time was really full, and he really followed the other party's admonition to turn a blind eye. Just eyes.
Leo couldn't help but smile slightly for a while.
