Chapter 383: The Word of Abandoning the Oath
Unlike the peace at the beginning of the Double Holy Week, the Vatican Church was already busy at this time because of the attacks of the oath-abstentioners. The clergy were in serious communication with each other. The knights guarding the Holy See left the parish one after another and went to all parts of the continent.
Lancelot was talking to a bishop at this time and said seriously: "Are you sure? The abandoner has recently attacked other villages?"
The bishop held a Bible in his hand, nodded his head tremblingly, and said regretfully: "I just received a report from the heads of churches in other regions. This time, the abstentioners betrayed the agreement of Double Holy Week and launched a shameless sneak attack."
"Why did they do this? No one broke the precepts in the first six years, so why did this year suddenly happen?" Lancelotbad said in a deep understanding, "There must be a deep reason inside."
"This is beyond my answer, Lord Knights of the Round Table." The bishop bowed slightly and shook his head, "The abolitioners have no glory or faith, and doing such a thing is not unbelievable. Pope Nero II has begun to send the knights to investigate, may the Lord be safe."
Just as Lancelot frowned and pondered, he suddenly looked at the location of the temple gate behind the bishop, raised his voice slightly, and called out: "Mr. Luo You."
Lancelot and the bishop said goodbye and then came to Luoyou's side and asked, "Will this meeting go smoothly?"
"It's okay." Luo You glanced at the fully armed Lancelot and asked in a low voice, "Are you ready to go to war?"
"Pope Nero II issued an order to dispatch to the knights of all troops, canceled all Double Holy Week holidays, and investigated the invasion of the abandoners, including our Knights of the Round Table." Lancelot looked very serious, but he was not dissatisfied at all. He obviously regarded this as his mission.
Luo You thought about it and finally didn't tell me what he was going to investigate in the consular area of the Swearing Abandoners. He turned to ask, "Why don't you start with Blackbeard Richard?"
"It just happened to tell you about this." Lancelot smiled slightly and said, "Before leaving, I, as the direct person in charge, need to interrogate Blackbeard Richard first. By the way, you are also an eyewitness. If you can participate, it must not be a bad thing."
Anyway, Luo You was still waiting for the informant situation of Nero and Hoanlison, and was idle, so he went to the interrogation room with Lancelot.
The interrogation room of the Cross Church does not have the cruel style of the dark medieval times. The black-bearded Richard sat in a chair with his hands on the table. There were two guards guarding for twenty-four hours in the room, which was very simple and simple.
Richard actually had no deep impression of Lancelot. The two had never had a real fight, but they were caught by him in the end.
Richard was impressed by Luo You, and he would never forget the posture of riding alone as if he was about to break the sky until his death.
"Hiss..." Richard leaned over slightly, leaned his face towards Luo You, sucked hard, and finally breathed intoxication, as if he was tasting the fragrance of a girl.
Luo You had been used to this kind of thing for a long time. He was teased not once or twice. Lancelot felt a little embarrassed. He was about to speak, but Richard was the first to speak: "Oh, the great Knight of the Round Table, I heard that the mission of the church is to eliminate heresy and destroy demons and evil spirits, right?"
Lancelot didn't expect the other party to turn against each other. After a while of silence, he said calmly: "That's right."
Richard's tortured hands suddenly loosened, and he pointed his index fingers at Luo You, with a ferocious expression and said forcefully: "Since that's the case, why don't you care about such a big monster standing here!"
Lancelot glanced at Loyou, held his head high and said to Richard, "He is a friend of the Cross Church."
"Wrong! You are wrong!" Richard bared his teeth and shook the table hard, saying viciously, "You don't know what this monster has done! This guy tore open my companion's chest with his hands, smashed his neck with his teeth, and ate him alive! But we can't kill him! Whether it's a gun or an axe, his body can grow again, and his arms, neck, and internal organs can grow out of those hideous wounds!"
"You are all deceived by his appearance! He is a rose, but as long as you break open the petals, you will find the bloody and sharp teeth hidden inside! Hahaha, it's ridiculous, isn't it! The church actually calls a brother to a monster!"
Lancelot is a noble knight who doesn't care about Richard's "rumor" at all. Instead, he said righteously: "Compared to the warrior who takes risks alone and saves beauty, I think the people who kidnap nuns and massacre civilians are more like monsters, right?"
Richard is a typical rude man, and he was refuted by Lancelot, who was knowledgeable and well-educated, so he couldn't say a word.
Seeing that the verbal confrontation had won, Lancelot said calmly: "Get back to the point, Richard, whose instructions were you to launch an attack, why did you specifically start the Double Holy Week? You should be clear that these 14 days are festivals protected by the Convention and there should be no war invasion around the world."
Richard stared at Lancelot with a cold expression, without saying a word, and sat in his seat as if frozen.
After looking at each other for a long time, Lancelot also gave up the frontal attack and began to cut from another angle. He moved a chair and sat in front of the table, and said lightly: "Richard, before becoming the Knight of the Round Table, I heard of you. You were brave and pious in the church and were full of energy. I can't think of any reason for you to abandon the open and the dark."
Richard seemed to have recalled some past events, and his eyes became a little vicissitudes.
Although Richard looks down and is also given the violent nickname of "Blackbeard", he was also a church knight riding a white horse, and many nuns dream of him at night.
After a long time, just as Lancelot was thinking about whether this topic would not work, Richard suddenly spoke: "Fear."
This answer made Lancelot stunned for a moment, and Luo You narrowed his eyes slightly.
Lancelot was silent for a moment and said in confusion: "What are you afraid of?"
Richard did not answer directly, but said quietly: "King of the Round Table, answer me a question: Are you willing to give everything for the church, for the cross, and for your faith?"
Lancelot replied without hesitation: "Everything!"
"Because I firmly believe that I can ascend to heaven after death?"
“And a mission to the people.”
"But for more people it is ascending to heaven." Richard's fingers knocked on the table regularly, as if complimenting, and as if sarcastic, "Not everyone is as great as you, I can guarantee that when your leader Arthur Pandragorn died in battle, he was not thinking about protecting the people, but about to ascend to heaven and return to the embrace of the Lord, his heart full of expectations and glory."
Lancelot was silent for a moment and said, "So what?"
"This is exactly why I shivered. Lord Lancelot, being shrouded in this belief, makes me feel in hell."
Lancelot's eyes were very deep, and he looked into Richard's eyes and said quietly: "Can you get rid of hell by giving up your oath and faith?"
"I thought it was, but then I found out that I was just jumping from one hell to another." Richard showed a creepy smile, his thick eyebrows raised slightly, and said in a twist, "But at least the hell here is very pure, unlike you, full of hypocrisy and lies."
