Chapter 623: Sudden Change
An explosive piece of news spread throughout the empire within half a day: "Elder Buoyang embezzled tens of millions of golden shields, concealed scandals and forged accounts. He did not hesitate to instruct many legendary peak powers to attack Speaker Rennes and open the gate of the abyss. The crime was revealed. I flee later and disappear without a trace."
In the next few days, the situation of the imperial capital changed suddenly.
"A number of Elder Nether pleaded guilty, and the supervision team reported to the Supreme Council."
"The Supreme Council condemned the wizards of Nether, and ordered those who participated in the corruption to return the stolen money within five years. During this period, those who were deprived of their rights, and those who had not been paid out of time, were removed from Nether City and expelled from the empire."
"Kronormanser, in the name of the elders, apologizes deeply to the Supreme Council and the people of the Empire."
"The Church of Justice is about to publicly judge Elder Dessad."
"The Nether Supervision Group completed its first audit of accounts, and the consul made a speech, saying that in the future, it will continue to strictly exercise the power of the Supervisory Group to prevent any black hands reaching out to Nether Floating City."
All kinds of news came one after another, dazzling people.
Anyone who has an understanding of imperial politics can tell from the contents of these newspapers that the ownership of Nether City has been settled. TV update is the fastest (com)//
In this battle against Nether, the Mordu faction won a complete victory, and the Duke of Redstone was defeated.
Nether is not just a floating city. It symbolizes the throne that rules the empire. It is also a holy place for countless Netherite wizards and a well-deserved spiritual leader. Nowadays, with the disappearance of Master Ogulevi, Nether has fallen at a speed that exceeds expectations. Both strength and fame have plummeted within a few months.
The rise of the demons seems inevitable.
The heavens of the empire have changed!
In these astonishing news, there is something that is not so obvious.
"The famous performing artist of the Empire, the Marquise of Eliza, will launch a three-year tour of the Empire in order to spread the teachings of the long-haired lady, attract believers, and promote the phonograph and camera. For this reason, Madame Eliza stepped down as the president of the Empire Art Association. Viola Silvey, Earl of Winter Lightning, will serve as the new president."
Some people familiar with the Good Church were shocked to see the news.
The believers in the Good Church couldn't understand it either.
The president of the Imperial Art Association is usually the pope of the Good Church. Mrs. Eliza is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period. She is actually a destruction warlock who can live for two thousand years. She is only more than 400 years old now. Why did she suddenly give up? Pope's throne?
Many people know that Viola is Ren's partner, but it doesn't make sense.
Even if Rennes's reputation is rising, what does this have to do with the Good Church? Elisa’s husband is a holy-ranked transcendent, the electorate of Long-haired Lady, although their status is far inferior to that of the Imperial Church of the Three Gods, nor is it comparable to the Holy Spirit Wizard, but they are not scared to abdicate by Renn.
There must be secrets that are not known to outsiders.
Marlengo Manor.
It was another lively night. The guests were all dressed up and gathered together in twos and threes to talk in low voices. The complex expressions on people's faces were incomprehensible, puzzled and surprised.
Tonight is not a salon, nor a dinner party.
Participants are mostly members of the Empire Art Association. Deacons, priests and artists, painters, singers, dancers, and photographers at all levels are almost all followers of Long Haired Lady.
The beautiful maids presented wine and delicacies like flowing water, and the soothing music echoed in the lobby, which seemed to be no different from the previous salons, but the guests noticed the unusual atmosphere, no longer the exquisite atmosphere of the past. A desirable arrangement, but reveals a kind of dignity and seriousness.
The most important thing is that I received the news half a day ago.
Marlengo Manor has changed ownership.
The invitations they received were the same as before, but the owner of the inscription had changed. It was no longer Madame Eliza, and replaced by Countess Viola and Speaker Rennes.
The most luxurious and beautiful manor in the imperial capital has welcomed two new owners.
When they arrived just now, the guests found that the guards of Marlengo Manor were replaced by the ultimate fighters of the famous empire. Only a part of the previous extraordinary guards were left, and hundreds of servants were also dismissed in half, which seemed to have gone through a major cleaning. .
What happened to Mrs. Eliza?
The upper-middle-class believers of the church were puzzled. After a while, a pair of young men and women walked into the hall. It was Ren and Viola. Mrs. Eliza walked side by side with them, with an elegant smile on her face, without the slightest abnormality.
The guests saluted one after another.
Most people's eyes focused on Renn's body.
This tall young man, with a faint smile on his handsome face, bright eyes and a tall body, wears a fitted mithril light armor even at the dinner party, and a dazzling blood cloak on his back. The dressing style is consistent with the surroundings. Gentlemen and nobles are out of place and seem a little unruly.
But no one dared to look down on him, or even dared to show the slightest strange emotion.
This extraordinary person of commoner origin has a reputation for being deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Because he was reduced from twelve to eight, three of them temporarily lost their rights. It can be said that he eliminated half of the elders of Nether with his own power. group.
The details of the attack a few days ago have gradually spread.
Four legendary pinnacle powerhouses joined forces to besiege, and two Elder Nether took control of the field secretly, and they were not unknown people. It was unbelievable that Renn killed five people and captured one alive.
After this battle, the reputation of the first person below Wren's Holy Soul became more stable, and no one dared to doubt it anymore.
Some people even think that Ren's strength has approached the holy order!
For such a hot and popular big person, who has the guts to pick the wrong thing in person, and the trivial matter of dressing and dressing is not in accordance with etiquette? I didn't even dare to laugh in my heart.
On the contrary, everyone thinks that this is a matter of course, and the real strong are reckless, highlighting the heroic demeanor.
"I have seen Speaker Rennes."
"The Earl of Glamorgan is really admirable."
"The name of the Duke of Augustus has been heard for a long time, and today I finally saw the elegance of the Duke with my own eyes. He is indeed an empire hero."
Most people took the lead in saluting Rennes, and there was a constant stream of flattering voices.
Of course, the guests did not forget the two ladies, and then shouted: "Your Excellency the President." "I have met the Marquise." But they were not as enthusiastic as they were when they saluted Rennes.
Ren raised his hand and pressed it, and the hall immediately became quiet.
"Everyone, welcome to Marlengo Manor as a guest."
He whispered softly, his eyes swept over the followers of these long-haired ladies. Among them, there were several imperial councillors or people who showed their identity, but they all listened to their words in a simulated manner, and laughed: "Tonight I'm just half the master, invite Everyone is here because Viola and Mrs. Eliza will announce an important thing."
The guests looked at the two beautiful ladies with different expressions.
Mrs. Eliza, who was in a gorgeous long dress, stepped forward two steps. She painted a light makeup today, not as beautiful and moving as usual, and became simpler.
"Ladies’ followers, colleagues, friends, and art seekers."
Eliza's slightly hoarse voice spread throughout the hall and said: "Everyone should know that thanks to the promotion of phonographs and cameras, the number of followers of the lady has increased dramatically over the years, thanks to the invention of Speaker Rennes and Viola. The president’s management."
"As the head of the church, I am deeply moved and a little ashamed. I have been thinking about how to use this great opportunity to contribute my own strength to the lady."
"Therefore, there will be an empire tour for the next three years. I will travel to all the cities of the empire, spread the doctrine of ladies with singing and dance, and arouse people's appreciation for beauty and desire for love."
"If this trip goes smoothly, my tour will not be limited to the empire, and it will be more than three years, and it may be extended to a longer future until I am satisfied."
"Everyone should have heard about this."
Eliza paused.
The guests who saw the bottom nodded slowly, and she was silent for a few seconds before continuing: "During the tour plan, I will not be in Northrill for a long time. The Empire Art Association cannot be unled, so I withdrew from the post of president. Euler succeeded."
"At the same time, I proposed to the lady the position of the pope and handed it over to Viola."
There was an uproar in the hall.
Despite people's speculation, she was shocked when she heard Mrs. Eliza personally say to abandon the pope's position.
The strength and influence of the Meishan Church is far inferior to that of the Imperial Trinity Church.
Long-haired lady can't compare to the three powerful gods.
But in any case, this is also a church with tens of millions of believers. The pope’s position is prominent, the power is in control, and it is in a period of rapid rise. With the promotion of phonographs and cameras, there will be more and more believers of the long-haired lady. The influence of good churches is also growing.
It is human nature to pursue beauty, love and art.
The Meishan Church has huge potential. Not surprisingly, in the next few decades, the influence of the Meishan Church will rise rapidly, and it is hopeful that it will become the fourth largest church in the empire.
There are many gods in the heavens, and there are more than twenty good gods in the empire that can openly believe in.
However, only the long-haired lady has the opportunity to improve her status.
With such a promising church, it is incomprehensible that Mrs. Eliza finally became the pope and gave up power at the most critical moment.
"Xiaomi, please think twice!"
Some believers loyal to Mrs. Eliza persuaded loudly.
"The church needs to sit down. Without your leadership over the years, we could not have grown to such a point. You can't leave when victory is about to come."
"Yes!"
"Please withdraw this idea, you can temporarily hand it over to President Viola for the management of the Imperial Art Association. When your tour is over, you can continue to perform the duties of the Pope."
Many believers have spoken, hoping that Mrs. Eliza can change her mind.
These people are the backbone of the Good and Good Church in Northriel. They have followed Eliza for many years and have been loyal to Eliza. They have become accustomed to having a holy order of destruction warlock sitting in the church. They are also afraid that after Eliza leaves, He lost his position of power in the church.
Rehn silently wrote down the faces and names of these people.
He looked blankly.
Mrs. Eliza did not respond to persuasion, but shook her head firmly when she heard those words.
Although she maintained an elegant smile on her face and a dignified manner, some sensitive people could still detect the unspeakable helplessness and unwillingness in her eyes.
Obviously this was not Mrs. Eliza's intention.
Using means to force the pope to abdicate, there are only a handful of people in the entire Northriel who can do it.
Those who tried to persuade finally realized that it was not good, and their voices gradually lowered.
Soon, no one spoke in the hall anymore, and the atmosphere became very depressing.
The people who had been loyal to Eliza before had bowed their heads, afraid to look at Ren's gaze, for fear of angering this incredible powerhouse. Even Mrs. Eliza didn't dare to resist Ren's will. If he offended him today, how could he be mixed in the imperial capital in the future?
"I appreciate your kindness."
Mrs. Eliza took the initiative to come out and said in a complex tone: "Everyone knows that Viola's ability is far better than me, whether it is company management or spreading doctrines. I believe that under Viola's leadership, the beauty and the good The church must develop better, and I sincerely support Viola to lead the church, assist her, help her, and better serve the ladies."
These words are very beautiful, but no one can hear them insincere.
"The most important thing is that the lady has approved my request to support Viola as the pope." Mrs. Eliza's words seemed to drop a blockbuster.
There are all the believers of the long-haired lady, and the gods have spoken, who would dare to object?
In an atmosphere of uncertainty, Mrs. Eliza bowed and saluted Viola:
"I have seen the pope under the crown."
Her worship was a foregone conclusion.
The guests in the hall knew that they could not be changed, so they also paid homage to Viola: "I have seen the pope's crown."
Viola didn't say a word from the beginning.
Until then, she walked up slowly, her beautiful face was somewhat reserved, without the kind of proud posture, she gently raised her hand, and the soft and clear voice sounded in the ears of the guests. Come: "You guys, please."
"Thank you, Mrs. Eliza, for her high spirits."
"Thank you for your recognition, madam."
"The most important thing is to thank you all for your support..." Viola's gaze swept across the crowd, and he began to deliver his first speech since he became the pope.
What she said is very clear, and that is to appease people's hearts. She will never make drastic reforms because of her new appointment, and she will not pursue the believers who have been right with her. Everything is business as usual. The Meishan Church currently has only one goal, which is to spread the doctrine with all its strength, attract more believers, and strengthen the power of the ladies.
The believers below feel a little relieved.
Especially those middle and upper class who had been loyal to Mrs. Eliza secretly breathed a sigh of relief and immediately became active about how they should move closer to the new pope and gain a higher position of power.
After a brief speech, the relaxed atmosphere was restored in the hall.
Viola communicated among the guests, one by one to appease the high-level leaders of the good church and the important believers whose status has shown.
Renn watched coldly, Viola did a good job.
The emotions of all the guests who had talked to her were obviously improved. Some dissipated their hostility, some were ecstatic, and some praised her and tried their best to show her loyalty.
The banquet tonight is only a preliminary announcement, and it went smoothly.
In a few days, Viola will be officially crowned the Pope under the witness of the lady in the headquarters of the Imperial Art Association, which is the temple of the lady of long hair.
Viola worked hard for many years and finally reached this point.
Ryan was happy for her from the bottom of his heart.
Some people are happy, and others are naturally lost. Mrs. Eliza had quietly left, and Marlengo Manor was no longer her home, and was transferred to Rennes and Viola at the price of 300,000 gold shields. This was her initiative, not Renn's request.
Rennes guessed what Mrs. Eliza was thinking.
After she learned the results of the attack, she expressed willingness to abdicate and sell Marlengo Manor on the same day. The 300,000 gold shield was lower than the actual value of the manor. She was frightened by doing this, so she deliberately wanted to please herself and compensate for the feast she had had before.
Ren didn't actually want to get along with her, as long as she abdicated honestly.
But Mrs. Eliza insisted on selling the manor, saying that she had left the imperial capital. This manor that she had meticulously maintained for many years was unattended, and she could only rest assured when Viola moved in.
In fact, she was afraid that she would report the evil **** followers to the Church of Justice, so she simply got rid of this hot potato.
Ren could only laugh, just as Viola's small manor was destroyed in the battle and needed a new residence.
As for those followers of the evil god, it's a piece of cake.
If they dared to show up at Marlengo Manor again, they would just kill them all and charge their mobile phones.
The banquet lasted for two hours and then ended. UU reading guests dispersed.
It was not until the last guest left and Viola returned to the luxurious bedroom upstairs that she smiled happily in front of Rennes.
"Thank you, Ren." Viola's face was grateful.
She knew very well that without Rennes, she could not ascend to the pope's throne so smoothly. The reason why the middle and upper classes of the churches communicate so well to comfort them is not all because of their tolerance and methods. They really respect their men.
Renn smiled, "What else do we say thank you."
Viola nodded with a touch of expression.
She was about to speak again, but saw Ren got up and walked to the bedroom door to open it. An extreme soldier outside handed in a note, and she was stunned when she glanced at it.
Under the crystal light, Viola saw a line written on the note: De Sade died in the prison of the Church of Justice.
