Chapter 455: The Progress of Dark Night Holy Court
In Cartier, the capital of Castile, the current legitimate king Garcia is drinking bottle after bottle of wine in the palace.
"Come on, come on again!"
Wine bottles were thrown everywhere, but no one came out to clean up the palace, so that the originally magnificent palace now looked a little dirty and even had a faint smell.
Today Garcia looks less like a king and more like a drunkard sitting on the throne.
After a moment of trance, Garcia came back to the dream that he was very familiar with.
"Welcome back, your Majesty the King."
The bishops of the Dark Night Holy Court appeared on both sides of the long table, and Garcia gradually woke up and sat in the seat that almost belonged to him.
"So? What's going on this time? Haven't I handed over all the power to you?"
Perhaps because he was still slightly drunk, Garcia was now even somewhat self-destructive and angry at the bishops of the Dark Night Holy Court.
"No, after all, you are His Majesty the King, so we still have to share some information with you."
Sitting on the throne, the pope wearing a crown said: "Your brother is dead, Domingo Castile was destroyed in a very short time, and Domingo himself was hanged on the newly built street lamp after being tried."
Upon hearing the news, Garcia sobered up instantly.
"Yes, did Rosalyn do it?"
"No, it was the empire from Mu Continent that did it. Of course, you can also say it was your sister who did it, after all, the empire sent troops in her name."
The pope's crown swayed slightly with his head, and the pope continued, "We need to re-examine this empire from Mu Continent, so your Majesty, it's time for you to get to work."
Garcia understood that this was a way for him to test the attitude of the empire.
"I understand."
Garcia had no choice. After all, Katir had been completely controlled by the Dark Night Holy Court, and he had to learn about his brother's death through this group of cultists.
Touching the patterns on the long table, Garcia sighed continuously. He could feel that the power of the Dark Night Holy Court was getting stronger and stronger, and the dreams it created were becoming more and more real. The dreams that were originally a little vague could now be clearly felt in terms of touch and details.
There seemed to be sounds of something being built around, and Garcia understood that the Dark Night Holy Court was planning to build a church in this dream and create a real Dark Night Holy Court.
This dream has not ended yet. After all, Garcia is now half a member of the Holy Court of Darkness. In addition, in order to let Garcia, who has been locked in the palace, have a basic understanding of the empire, the Holy Court of Darkness did not kick Garcia out.
Of course, Garcia felt that this was more of the Dark Night Holy Court showing off its great ability to construct dreams.
After sorting out the intelligence about the empire, the Pope sitting on the throne said, "We need a new batch of Morning Star Apostles to help Bishop Levian conduct research and build the Dark Night Holy Court. Your Majesty, thank you for sending the new batch of Morning Star Apostles to Bishop Levian."
"I understand. I will have people send the homeless people in Cartier City here."
Hearing Garcia's answer, the Pope prayed devoutly: "Praise be to the Lord of the Morning Star, may your light bring the homeless back to their homeland."
The other bishops also prayed and said, "Praise the Lord of the Morning Star."
After the prayer, the pope continued, "I know you have objections to Bishop Levian receiving a new batch of Morning Star Apostles, but Bishop Levian not only developed a new ritual that allows the starlight of the Lord of the Morning Star to better shine into dreams, but also allows us to have stronger control over dreams."
"I believe you have all noticed that the Dark Night Holy Court has become more real now. We are gradually experiencing a sense of touch, heartbeat and breathing that are close to reality in our dreams. All this is thanks to Bishop Levian. If any of you can do better than Bishop Levian, I can assign more Morning Star Apostles to you."
Hearing this, the other bishops nodded in agreement and looked at Levian with envy and approval.
The Dark Night Tribunal's technology for controlling dreams has made some breakthroughs recently, but Levian's breakthrough is the most obvious. Almost everyone has benefited from Levian, so even the other bishops of the Dark Night Tribunal are convinced of this colleague. Many of them even gave their quota of Morning Star Apostles to Levian in order to improve their relationship with him.
"Your Holiness, thank you for the compliment. I was just doing my job."
Even through the mask, everyone could feel the humility and piety in Levian's tone, as well as his crazy belief in the higher being.
The more the Pope on the throne looked at Levian, the more satisfied he became. He was calm, thoughtful and not rash, and he was also a technician. In the Dark Night Holy Court, where most of the people were serious cultists and underground churches, such people were becoming increasingly rare.
"So there is another resolution today, which is to promote Bishop Levian to cardinal. This is something we mentioned before. Let's start the vote."
This is also to allow Levian to use more of the Morning Star Apostles' shares reasonably. Of course, the number of cardinals is fixed. After all, the shares of Morning Star Apostles are limited. However, the meeting still passed Levian's promotion resolution unanimously. The cardinal who was originally scheduled to retire also held Levian's hand tightly, hoping that Levian could build this dream church magnificently.
Even Garcia, who had not yet left the field, turned his gaze towards Levian.
To be honest, if he still had the ability, Garcia would even want to win over the other party, but it is a pity that it is impossible to win them over now. However, Garcia can give more Morning Star Apostles. Anyway, there are homeless people everywhere in Cartier. If he cannot win them over, he can at least please them. This way, he will be able to live a better life in the Dark Night Holy Court in the future.
As for the information about the empire that the Pope had said before, Garcia did not listen carefully. After all, even if he had powerful artillery, as long as he could not withstand the attack of dreams, he would still have to sit at the same table with him in the end.
Thinking of this, Garcia even wanted to laugh. Maybe soon he would see Rosaline come and sit next to him.
"Okay, this meeting is over. Everyone, don't forget the glory of the Lord of the Morning Star."
Garcia stood up and saluted with everyone else, waiting to exit the dream.
But when the people around him gradually disappeared, Garcia did not wake up.
Garcia looked up in confusion and saw that only he and Cardinal Levian were left at the scene.
Just when Garcia didn't understand what was happening but wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to Cardinal Levian, a lantern appeared vaguely in the void, and a nun in a close-fitting nun's uniform sat casually on the table that had just finished a meeting and was regarded as a holy object by the Dark Night Holy See.
And the rising star in the Dark Night Holy Court, Cardinal Levian, came to the nun like a dog.
"Nice to meet you, King of Castile."
Although her words were polite, the nun looked at Garcia as if he were trash.
"I am the Sister of the Empire, Bernice of the Lantern Dream."
