The Dark King
chapter-637

“It’s him?”The old man was startled. “Could it be that Richelieu’s disappearance has something to do with him?”

“This isn’t something you should know.”The black-robed man’s voice was slightly cold as he went straight to the point. “What did they say in today’s meeting? What are they planning to do? Will they contact the inner wall?”

The old man frowned slightly, he said in a low voice, “Our Knight Hall has always adhered to the principle of fairness and fairness. Although this matter is a little strange, it is not to the extent of contacting the inner wall to interfere with the matters of the outer wall. This will disrupt the structure of the outer wall. They are only preparing to find Richelieu and ask about the situation. I reckon that they should have some suspicions that Richelieu is already dead or has been kidnapped.”

“Ha…”the black-robed man chuckled.

The old man felt a trace of mockery in it. His face darkened as he asked, “What do you mean by ‘ha’?”

“Ha’means that I didn’t expect that the thoughts of those old fellows in the Knight’s Hall would all be predicted by that Lord.”The corners of the black-robed man’s mouth curled up slightly, he chuckled and said, “If you contact the forces in the inner wall to intervene now, you might be able to take advantage of it. Unfortunately, you have missed such a good opportunity. No wonder the Knight’s Hall is getting worse day by day. In today’s era, other than those civilians who have no way out, no background, no connections, and want to climb up, who would abide by the so-called Knight’s Spirit?”

The old man’s expression changed slightly. His gaze flickered slightly as he said, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll pass these words on to them?”

“Do you dare?”The black-robed man’s smile faded slightly as he tilted his head to look at him.

The old man looked straight at him and said, “I’m cooperating with you because I’m grateful. If it concerns the life and death of countless people in the outer wall region, why wouldn’t I dare? !”

“Then you try.”The black-robed man didn’t care about his furious true energy at all, he said indifferently, “Don’t forget what you’ve done. If it’s exposed, you, your family, your children, your grandchildren, and all your good friends will all be burned on the stake. In history, there were more than one legendary knight who was exposed to collude with the dark church. You know better than me what will happen to them.”

The old man clenched his fists and his gaze was cold, he said, “This is the last time I will cooperate with you. From now on, I hope that you will not come looking for me again. Even if you do, I will not cooperate with you anymore! “I can not sell my soul to the Devils anymore. You Devil Disciples will definitely go to Hell after you die. You will be entangled by the chains of eternal darkness for generations and will not be purified!”

“Chains of eternal darkness?”The black-robed man chuckled. “This is something made up in the Holy Book of the Holy Church of light. We don’t believe it. We only believe that darkness can never be destroyed. Only Darkness is the most real world!”! “Look at you knights, you are so hypocritical and pitiful!”

“You can insult me, but don’t insult the pure honor of a true knight!”The old man said angrily.

“If you don’t want to expose yourself, you’d better keep your voice down.”

The old man suppressed the anger in his eyes. He took a deep breath and said coldly, “Since we’re here to talk business today, please leave immediately after we’re Done!”

The black-robed man smiled calmly and said, “Alright, you’ve talked for so long in the meeting, and this is all you’ve said?”

“There’s one more thing,”the old man said coldly. “They’re preparing to look for the background information of the new pope, but I’ve taken charge of this matter. You should know the background of the new pope, right? What’s his background?”

“No background. He is just a small apprentice knight.”The black-robed man said indifferently, “No background, no noble blood, and no strength. To tell you the truth, this person is just a puppet that the Lord supported. The one who is the real pope is that Lord!”

The old man was stunned, and his eyes revealed an intense shock. “Isn’t he your speaker? Is it possible that Richelieu was really kidnapped by him? He actually passed the position to him? What is Richelieu Thinking? !”

The black-robed man looked at him with a smile and said, “Are you questioning that Lord?”

The old man came to his senses, and his expression changed slightly. He lowered his head and said, “No.”Although he didn’t have a good impression of the black-robed man in front of him, he didn’t dare to offend that Lord because of this.., this figure who could subdue twelve elders of the dark church in one night was definitely not someone he could afford to offend. Moreover, once the matter of the succession of popes in front of him was truly carried out.., the Radiant Church and the dark church in the outer wall region would fall under the control of one person. In time, they would definitely completely dominate the outer wall region!

Such a person was not someone he could afford to offend.

The black-robed man smiled and said, “You just said that you took charge of this matter. You’ve done a good job and saved us a lot of trouble. I hope that you can properly wrap up the background of this new pope and temporarily hide it from the eyes of others. If you can hide it for a while, you’ll be able to calculate it for a while. When the new pope takes the throne, I’ll need you to stand out and show your support. You’ll have to add glory to the new pope. With your legendary Knight Medal and identity, as well as your past glory and authority, your support will definitely reduce the voices of doubt!”

The old man was shocked and said angrily, “I openly support him? Are you trying to expose me?”

The black-robed man waved his hand slightly, he said, “Don’t be agitated for now. That Lord said that you have settled this matter. Not long after the new pope takes the throne, he will let you become the Temple Master of the Knight Hall. Isn’t this the highest goal that you have dreamed of? When that time comes, you will be the knight that everyone in the outer wall admires the most. There will be no one like you! “You will also become the existence that all the knights under the nobles yearn for and pursue. You will be the legendary figure that they worship, and your name will be engraved in the annals of history. Don’t you want to obtain such an honor?”

The old man was stunned.

In fact, there was no need for the black-robed man to say so many enticing words. Just by relying on the condition of “Becoming the temple master,”he already knew what kind of exciting honor this was. This was the pursuit of all the Knights!

After a moment, he woke up and calmed down, he said word by word, “Don’t use your seductive and depraved rhetoric on me. Knight’s Glory is obtained by adhering to the Knight’s spirit, not by selling your comrades and your souls in exchange. You Are Devils. You Can’t Give Me Glory, only shame!

The black-robed man raised his eyebrows and looked at him with some surprise. He looked at him with some admiration in his eyes, clapping his hands lightly, he said, “Not bad, not bad. As expected of a legendary knight. You have good self-control. However, this is not an empty rhetoric, but the real words. It is also what the Lord asked me to bring to you. Believe it or not, that Lord should not have the need to deceive you. After all, you must do this unless you want to expose all the things you have done. In that case, there will be no place for your spirit of a Knight and the Medal of a knight. The hall of knights will not tolerate people like you, right?”

The old man was stunned.

Cold sweat dripped from his forehead. He slowly clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth, “You guys are ruthless!”

“It’s good that you agree.”The black-robed man smiled gently, he stood up and said, “I’ll leave the matter of concealing the true identity of the new pope to you. If there are other tasks, I’ll pass them on to you. Now that the situation is unstable, you must not stand on the wrong side. If you stand on the side that is eliminated, you’ll be in big trouble…”

Hearing his threat, the old man snorted and said, “You don’t need to say anything.”

“That’s for the best, Haha.”

“Will the church of light be able to pass the challenge of you suddenly replacing the Pope?”The old man stared at him and said, “Even if Richelieu agrees to give up his position, those cardinals are not to be trifled with, right?”

“You don’t need to worry about that. We have already fully activated the highest plan — the Dark Moon Plan.”The black-robed man waved his hand with his back facing the old man and said, “Don’t forget, the hotter the sun, the deeper the shadow.”

The old man was stunned.

At this moment, in the military headquarters of the Western Region, there was also an emergency meeting. Many generals with outstanding achievements had arrived one after another. The replacement of the Pope of the radiant church was the biggest matter in the outer wall. To them.., it was even more serious than the savage prisoner realm!

In just a short morning, the news spread like a virus to all parts of the outer wall.
