The Dark King
chapter-651

Riley’s gaze moved slightly, but he did not ask.

Hawkeye looked at him and pondered for a while before saying, “Go and pick him up first. I will send Five Knights to assist you. This is the information of that ‘Joseph’. Don’t pick up the wrong one.”

Riley reached out and took it. After flipping through it, he nodded and said, “I understand.”

After Riley left, Hawkeye immediately called his secretary and asked her to write a few secret letters and send them to various places at the fastest speed.

“The military region, poor…”Hawkeye put away the secret letters and lit them on the candle. He sighed softly.

At the foot of Mount Uto, Richelieu was wearing the holy armor of the past. He sat upright on his holy sun dragon horse, looking awe-inspiring. In the huge square in front of him, there were countless knights of light gathering. They occupied the entire square. There were tens of thousands of people, which was almost 60% of the military strength of the Holy See stationed in the commercial district!

Although the number of knights of the Holy See could not be compared to the soldiers of the army, their quality was far better than the soldiers of the army.

“Your Majesty!”A burly middle-aged man riding a nearly three-meter-tall horse galloped over from afar. On the side of his horse hung a three-meter-long giant sword that was nearly half a meter wide and extremely huge.

Richelieu looked at the person who came and waited for him to come closer before he said, “Pulo, don’t Call Me Your Majesty anymore. If it wasn’t for this matter being too troublesome, I would have already prepared to find a farm and live a small life.”

Pulo’s bell-like eyes opened wide, full of vigor, he said, “In my heart, you will always be my majesty. Why do you want that young man… that man to be the Pope? Could it be that you are really as sick as they say?”

“I’m old, it’s time to give up the throne.”Richelieu shook his head slightly. “Let’s not talk about these things. This time, we will lead a team to arrest Bryson. Are You Ready?”

“Are we really going to break with the military?”Pulo’s face revealed a serious expression. Although he had a rough appearance, it did not mean that he was brainless.

Richelieu glanced at him, he said, “Watch your words. Our belief is to punish evil and eliminate evil. Bryson colluded with the followers of the dark cult. This matter is irrefutable evidence. No matter who he is, he must pay the price for his actions. This is also the meaning of our existence!”

Pullo was stunned and immediately said solemnly, “I have misspoken. You have taught me a lesson!”

“Let’s Go!”Richelieu pulled the reins of his horse, he said, “Let the main force follow behind. You will follow me and lead the light cavalry to the Military Region first. We will treat them with respect first. If the military region insists on forcefully protecting Bryson, we will consider using forceful methods.”

“I understand.”Pullo nodded.

The news of the Holy See’s Army’s action spread along the streets. Countless civilians and nobles along the way all heard the news. Seeing the battle formation, they immediately knew that the Holy See was serious this time.

The news quickly spread to the conference room of the Military Region headquarters. When the people who had not yet finished their meeting heard the news, they immediately fell into silence.

“Richelieu and the Great Radiant King Pulo actually went out personally? Are they preparing to start a war with us? !”

“What a Holy See. They came so quickly. They are trying to catch us off guard!”

“It seems that they have also expected that this matter will not go as they wish!”

“Damn it, General Lorraine has just set off!”

Saint Lorenzo looked at the furious generals and turned to look at Bryson. He knew that they could not engage in internal strife at this time. Although the three commanders would usually fight each other secretly, if they were to engage in internal strife this time.., they would only let the Holy See succeed. In the end, even if there was one less commander, it would cause the military region to lose all face. It would also make him, who was also a Commander, lose face.

“Stall them first and wait for Roland’s reply.”Saint Lorenzo immediately ordered, “Transfer back the troops of the City Defense Department and prepare for battle!”

“Yes!”A five-star general who was the Minister of the City Defense Department immediately stood up and accepted the order.

A moment later, Richelieu and Pulo led a team of light cavalry to the front of the military headquarters’courtyard. Behind this courtyard was not just a manor, but a vast green area that contained the military headquarters’barracks, the general’s residence, as well as the training grounds and many other places, were important places in the military headquarters, but also a restricted area for civilians!

Richelieu stopped his horse and looked at a guard who was trotting over in front of the courtyard. This guard had long received the news from the higher-ups. When he saw Richelieu and plop sitting on the tall horse, he felt both nervous and fearful. Although he did not believe in the Holy See, his wife did, his mother and father also believed in it. Under the atmosphere of the entire family believing in religion, he was more or less infected. At this moment, facing these two supreme figures of the Holy See, he felt as if there were two mountains pressing down on his head and shoulders, he could not help but bend down and lower his head.

“Kid, go and call someone who can take care of things.”Before the guard could speak, Pulo was the first to shout out.

The guard was shocked and hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, I’ll go right away. You, please wait a moment.”After saying that, he did not bother to be rude and hurriedly turned around to run away.

A moment later, Saint Lorenzo led a few generals out on horseback. Just as he left the courtyard, he saw Richelieu and Pulo, who were parked at the door, as well as dozens of light cavalry behind them.

Saint Lorenzo’s gaze moved slightly, and he gently pressed on the horse’s back. The horse immediately slowed down and slowly walked in front of Richelieu, he smiled and said, “Mr. Richelieu, Mr. Pulo, the people below are not sensible. Please excuse us. Come in and talk with me.”

Richelieu smiled and said, “It’s said that soldiers are straightforward. The commander-in-chief doesn’t need to beat around the bush with us. I’m sure you know why we’re here this time. Give us a straightforward answer. Are you going to hand them over or protect them?”

Seeing that he was so direct, the smile on St. Lorenzo’s face slowly disappeared, he looked at him and said, “Do you have evidence that Commander Bryson colluded with the dark cult? “There’s something fishy in this matter. I think it’s better to investigate it thoroughly before arresting him. After all, as the commander of Our Military Region, Bryson was arrested by you just like that. How will our military region maintain its footing in the future? How will we maintain the peace and order of the outer wall region?”

“We are here to bring people. Naturally, we have evidence.”Richelieu said, “If you don’t believe me, please ask Commander Bryson to come out and meet us.”

Saint Lorenzo frowned slightly and said, “Commander Bryson is out on official business and is temporarily unable to meet us. I can help you summon him back, but it will take some time. Everyone, please come in and rest with me first. How about it?”

Richelieu narrowed his eyes and smiled, “There’s no need. We’ll wait here.”

Seeing that he wasn’t going to be soft, Lorenzo didn’t say anything more and returned on his horse after a few polite words.

“Richelieu, that old thing. He won’t listen to good words. Does he really think that our military is afraid of them?”After they entered the courtyard, one of the generals immediately lowered his voice and said angrily.

Although he was deliberately restraining his voice, they were not far from the courtyard, so it was not difficult to hear his words.

Saint Lorenzo glanced at him and knew that he was deliberately saying it for Richelieu to hear. He said, “Don’t be rude. When the matter is investigated clearly, they will give commander Bryson Justice.”Although he was reprimanding the general.., there was not a trace of anger on his face.

“Little Bastard!”Pulo’s ears trembled slightly. When he heard the voices from behind the courtyard, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. He clenched the horse rope tightly.

Richelieu’s expression was calm. He said, “There’s no need to be angry. The dog bit you. You Can’t Bite the dog back.”

Pulo gritted his teeth slightly. He knew that the other party was deliberately provoking them. Once they forcefully broke in, the nature would be different. The military region would use this as an excuse to make a fuss and take the opportunity to cover up Bryson’s matter.

Richelieu heard the sound of horses galloping away from St. Lorenzo and the others. He turned to plop and said, “There’s no need to rush. Since they want to delay, let them. The longer they delay, the more advantageous it will be for us.”

“Advantageous for us?”PLOP did not understand.

“Don’t forget, we still have the new pope behind us,”Richelieu said with a faint gaze. In his heart, he thought that there was still that person behind him.
