BXBX NOVEL Chapter 648
Francis was shocked and hurriedly raised his hand to parry. However, when he raised his arm, he felt that his chest was pierced by a sharp object. It was so cold that it pierced his bones. His body was violently thrown out and smashed onto the floor.
“Didn’t you say…”he was panicking. He was about to get up from the ground as he angrily questioned Dudian.
However, before he could finish his words, the black shadow attacked his line of sight. With a bang, Francis’s head was twisted off and his body fell down. His expression was still angry as he stared at the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them were killed by Aisha.
Dudian shook the bell in time to stop Aisha from biting one of them. He took out a handkerchief and came in front of her. He wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and fingers but there was still a bloody mark.
He turned around and called Richelieu who was guarding the entrance of the hall: “Get Someone to clean up their bodies. Tell them that the dark church attacked the pope and burned them in public.”
Richelieu was surprised as he looked at the corpses on the ground. He didn’t expect that the few saints sent by the inner wall would die so quickly. They didn’t even hurt Dudian, it was the woman who was always by Dudian’s side. This was definitely the strongest line of defense. It was the most dangerous and beautiful line of defense.
Barton rushed in after Richelieu left. He was relieved to see that Dudian wasn’t injured. He was surprised to see the bodies on the ground as well as the broken windows, he asked Dudian: “Master, Are You Alright? Are they here to assassinate me?”
“Yes.”Dudian nodded.
Barton didn’t expect that these people would climb up from the cliff behind the temple. If he lived here alone then he would have been quietly beheaded.
“Fortunately young master you are here. Otherwise I would…”Barton was grateful to Dudian. Although he knew that if he didn’t become Pope then he wouldn’t be assassinated but Dudian had saved his life once again, but it was the truth.
Dudian waved his hand: “The person who wants to hurt you is my enemy. This matter is also because of me. It’s late. Go to sleep. I will deal with it here.”
Barton looked at the corpses on the ground. The rich smell of blood was pungent. It made his stomach churn. He felt nauseous. But he resisted the urge. How could he sleep after such a big thing happened tonight?
He agreed and left the place. It took courage to stay with the corpses.
“You have worked hard.”After Barton left, Dudian pulled Aisha back to the chair. The coldness on his face had long melted. He was full of tenderness and tenderness as he touched her cold hands, “Next time, they will send stronger people. Fortunately, you are by my side.”
Aisha was expressionless and didn’t say anything.
After a while, Richelieu led a team of knights of light into the hall. He dragged the bodies down to deal with them. He called the servants to clean the ground several times to get rid of the smell of blood. Dudian took clean water and cleaned Aisha’s fingers and lips. He took her to the other side of the hall and sat down. He estimated that it was almost time for the other forces to.., most likely they had begun to take action.
After dawn, the bodies of Francis and the others were locked in the prison carriage by the Knights of light. They were paraded in the streets. Countless passers-by gathered around and pointed at them.
The news of the assassination of the Pope quickly spread to the military headquarters and the Knight’s Hall.
“General, I have personally seen it. The faces of these dark cultists have been destroyed. They can not be recognized. Their deaths were tragic. They were not caused by weapons. Instead, it was as if they were torn by something.”
“Forcefully torn apart?”
“That’s right. I even had someone secretly shoot a cold arrow at the corpses. The result was very shocking. The arrow actually did not pierce through the corpses of these people. According to this subordinate’s guess, these people’s physiques are most likely at the level of top hunters, or their magic marks are biased towards body strengthening.”
“Oh? The arrow actually could not pierce through the corpses? Are you sure?”
“This subordinate is sure!”
“It seems that the dark church has sent out all their experts this time. I didn’t expect that there would be such a powerful expert hidden in the dark church. Even after death, the arrows couldn’t hurt the corpse. If he was still alive, who knows how strong he would be…”
In the Knight’s Hall on the other side, everyone was discussing animatedly.
“The dark church is so eager to make a move. It seems that the glory of the new pope is not completely fabricated.”
“This time, they must have sent many experts to assassinate the pope. I didn’t expect that all of them would die.”
“The power of the new pope can not be underestimated. There might be experts hiding by his side!”
“If we can find out from the dark church which experts they sent, we can roughly know the power of the Radiant Church.”
When Francis and the others’corpses were paraded on the streets, the ones who were the most shocked were the dark church members who were hiding in the dark alleys and secretly watching the scene. When they saw the black tattoos on the corpses, they were both disappointed.., they were also excited. They didn’t expect the dark cult that they were loyal to to be so awesome. They actually dared to assassinate the pope. Although they failed, it probably scared the pope out of his wits, right?
At the same time, after the elders of the 12th district of the dark cult received the news, they immediately called for an emergency meeting.
“Who sent people to assassinate him?”
“Which district sent people?”
“Why didn’t they discuss this beforehand? Isn’t this alerting the enemy? B * Stard!”
Everyone was angry as they questioned the person who “Made the decision”. However after half an hour they found that… no one had sent anyone to assassinate the pope.
They were stunned for a moment. Soon someone thought that other forces might have framed the dark church.
At the end of the meeting the elders of the 12th district received a secret letter from Dudian. Everyone was stunned as they looked at each other. They didn’t expect that Dudian would send someone to assassinate the pope, dudian was the one who orchestrated this event. Moreover, he was listening to the contents of the secret letter. The purpose of doing so was to pave the way for the rule of the military headquarters and the Knight’s Temple!
Terrible!
After the secret letter was read, the entire meeting room was silent.
In the blink of an eye, a day had passed.
Dudian called Barton the next day after Francis and others’bodies were paraded in public. He ordered Barton to send troops to capture Commander Bryson of the military headquarters. The reason was that he was colluding with the dark church!
