Chapter 279

    Leo left, Manda began to analyze the situation with the public, and he was shocked by the appearance of bucken.


    Why did he appear in the Rockland hills? Cherdan thought of two answers.


    First, with his strong strength, he was favored by bapre and joined his mountain.


    This is not impossible. Although bucken''s strength is above that of bapre, it is reasonable for him to recruit bucken as a subordinate, just as Manda recruited Millo.


    Another possibility is that bucken personally supported bapre, which is one of his hidden forces. This answer is closer to the truth. There are more than a dozen ancient god believers under bapre. His strength is no less than that of count haze, but his reputation is not loud. It is likely that he hid himself as much as possible under the command of bucken.


    Manda was still thinking about revenge, but now he has a secret worry.


    Cheerdan suggested: "wait for the Archbishop first, and then we will clean up the mess after they lose both."


    Manda was silent for a long time and said, "why did bucken rob Leo''s food? Was he so short of food?"


    Pluto thought: "food prices are too high. Winter is coming, and mountain thieves have to find a way to survive the winter."


    Manda shook her head. What was worth worrying about would not be so simple.


    Pluto also felt that his answer was a little hasty. Cherdan thought for a long time and said, "he wants to use food to win over the refugees in the begmia mountain?"


    "Maybe it''s possible, but it''s not so simple."


    Che Erdan thought for a long time, shook his head and said, "I can''t think of any other reason."


    Manda muttered, "he robbed Leo''s food, but didn''t kill Leo. What would Leo do under normal circumstances?"


    Che Erdan thought for a long time and suddenly realized: "according to the normal thinking, Leo should ask the Archbishop for help, that is to say, bucken''s purpose is to attract the Archbishop!"


    Manda nodded and said, "the Archbishop has more than 4000 divine punishment troops. As long as he is willing to do it, it should be easy to level a stronghold, but what if he doesn''t?"


    Cheerdan took a breath: "that proves that bucken''s strength is still above the Archbishop!"


    Millo was stunned and suddenly said with a smile: "if he really has such strong strength, we two can''t come back alive."


    "That''s what I''m really worried about," Manda wiped the sweat from her forehead. "He wants to lead me out. He wants revenge and catch all his enemies."


    Standing aside, Pluto couldn''t help shaking: "thanks for not letting Stanley do it, otherwise we would have lost a lot."


    Cherdan sighed softly, "we thought of it. I don''t know if the Archbishop can think of it."


    Kunta thought, "if only the king could think of it. It''s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."


    Che Erdan was stunned, looked at Kunta and said with a smile, "you are really not simple. You are a layer deeper than I thought."


    Kunta is complacent, but Manda''s face is more heavy.


    "The king may not have expected that something big will happen to the king. We should go."


    ……


    In the cathedral, Leo was telling the Archbishop what had happened, but just at the beginning, the Archbishop frowned.


    "You were robbed in Rockland hills? What are you doing in Rockland hills?"


    "I got the news that bucken was in the Rockland hills. He joined a group of mountain bandits led by the thief bapre." Leo naturally lied.


    "Robber bapre? I haven''t heard of this man. What did they rob you?"


    "Robbed some gold coins."


    "Some gold coins? Are you talking about your travel expenses? Those money are also worth bucken''s hands?"


    "He didn''t do it himself. It was a few minions. I brought many subordinates. I could have fought with them, but I didn''t do that. I took out more than 50 gold coins and asked some questions from them. It was a deal with them."


    "Have they met bucken?"


    "Yes," Leo nodded. "One of them is from Wangdu. He knows bucken."


    Leo made up a set of fairly good lies. It is reasonable to say that such lies are difficult to deceive the old hawitt.


    But Leo has an "aura of honesty", Howitt always believed that he did not dare to lie to himself, so that he did not carefully analyze the flaws in the lie.


    Howitt believed Leo''s words, which relieved Leo. He found out bucken''s whereabouts, helped the Archbishop eradicate the great trouble, eradicated the group of hateful mountain bandits, and opened up the way to transport food. Most importantly, he bought a way to live for the refugees in the begmia mountains. For him, the result was perfect.


    But he didn''t realize that the lie affected Howitt''s judgment.


    Three days later, Howitt ordered the convening of the divine punishment army in the city.


    This move frightened the king. He immediately summoned the Golden Lion iron guard, general long Gesen and the wind knight.


    They thought the archbishop was going to attack the palace, but they were wrong. The Archbishop took the initiative to come to the palace and said to the king that he would go out of the city to preach.


    It is not unusual for the Archbishop to preach out of town every three or five years.


    But what does he do with so many troops? Is there a sacred war against a lord?


    This probability is not big. Even if gaisak set off such a big storm at the beginning, the Archbishop did not have the idea of making a hand in person. The bigger the storm, the more he wants to be a stable king. Howitt is not an impulsive person.


    Besides, if a lord really wants to do something, he should at least tell the king, unless he doesn''t need the support of the king.


    The king was puzzled. He called his confidants to discuss the matter. The government minister looked worried. Manda didn''t say a word. Longson thought it was a rare opportunity.


    "Your Majesty, whatever the archbishop is going to do, we''d better not let him come back."


    The king looked at longson and said, "do you want to take the opportunity to expel the divine punishers in the king''s capital?"


    Longerson shook his head and said, "it''s not expulsion, it''s killing them all."


    The government minister angrily said, "are you crazy? Do you think the Lord''s church will take away all the troops? The king will leave a large number of God''s punishment troops!"


    "No matter how many divine punishment troops he left and lost the leader, they are just a mob. I have confidence to defeat them!"


    "Even if you can win, what should you do when the Archbishop comes back?"


    "I said, he can''t come back," long Gesen said calmly. "No matter who he goes out to fight with, whether he loses or wins, we will never let him return to Wangdu alive. I think the Lords around Wangdu think so!"


    "Crazy, really crazy!" the government minister shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the idea of the general is too reckless. You must not..."


    "Yes, not too reckless." the king nodded. Manda breathed a sigh, and the familiar rhythm came again.


    But the next rhythm was not so familiar. The king looked at long Gesen and whispered, "we don''t have to hurry. We can see the trend of the Archbishop first. If he just goes out to preach or make a small fuss, we''ll treat him as if nothing has happened. If he loses with others, we don''t have to be polite to him."


    Longerson nodded and said, "Your Majesty''s decision is very wise!"


    Manda was stunned, and the king''s idea was almost infallible.


    The minister shook his head and his voice trembled: "Your Majesty, why should we take care of those who are punished by God and live a stable life for two days?"


    The king was silent. It seemed that he would accept the suggestion of the Minister of state again.


    But the ending was unexpected again. The king raised his head, prayed and said to the government minister, "may the Lord of the gods bless you. You are really annoying. I''m afraid I''ll kill you in anger one day!"
