For them, I believe in superior firepower

Chapter 44 Goal, Savior
Just when Helmut looked at Oliveira and felt like he was on the verge of winning for a while, there was a rather hasty knock on the door of the meeting room.

He was slightly displeased at being interrupted, but quickly adjusted, and said kindly, "Come in."

The door was pushed open, and the holy white-robed priest who had led the way for Helmut just stumbled in, lowered his head, and presented a document with both hands.

"What is this?" Helmut asked plainly, looking at the white-robed priest.

"My lord cardinal, please watch it yourself." The voice of the white-robed priest trembled.

"Hmm..." Seeing that the state of the white-robed priest was obviously wrong, Helmut didn't insist anymore, but took the document and read it alone.

It's just that after reading two or three lines, his expression became obviously serious.

At the end, there was even a hint of livid face.

"Cardinal Helmut, what bad news is bothering you?" Oliveira looked at Helmut's expression, and his tone was obviously relaxed, "We are both cardinals, I don't know...but I need to share my worries with you ?”

"Then there is no need." Helmut squeezed out a smile, "I hope Cardinal Oliveira can think about what I just said. I still have something to do, so I will leave first."

After speaking, Helmut slowly got up and left the chamber.

But once he walked out of the hall, his pace was obviously more than a step faster.

The white-robed priest closely followed him, waiting for his words.

"What's going on with the report?" After reaching a slightly secluded place, Helmut finally stopped and looked at the white-robed priest with a sullen look.

"Master Cardinal, since Cardinal Oliveira was taken away by you from Cold Winter Monastery, our personnel stationed in the monastery have been advancing southward."

The white-robed priest looked trembling, but he was able to say the whole thing, "According to the plan, we were supposed to meet up with the 'martyr' you secretly sent to the bandit group in Cedar Town..."

"But he died?" Helmut's smile took on a slightly sinister meaning, "You told me that Maxim had dedicated himself to the Lord, didn't you?"

"Yes, yes..." The white-robed priest shook his head like a sieve, but could only keep nodding his head.

Helmut sighed.

The negative emotions I saw just now miraculously disappeared within the time of this breath.

"Then, why did he dedicate his life to the Lord?" Helmut said calmly, "The Lord told us to follow the principles in everything, right, Derian?"

The white-robed priest nodded again and again, but dared not even speak.

He could see that at this point in time, Helmut didn't need his answer and judgment at all, but just needed a little confirmation from an audience like him.

"In this place in the northern border, since their lord...disappeared, there has been no large-scale and systematic training of ability users."

Helmut's speech became slower and slower, "Then, under such circumstances, how could Maxim, a 'martyr', dedicate himself to the Lord so easily?"

"Derian, you should know how terrifying it would be for a 'martyr' to erupt with all his strength, right?"

"Yes..." the white-robed priest continued to reply tremblingly.

"Okay, if that's the case, who can make Maxim also dedicate himself to the Lord?" Helmut turned his head and looked at the white-robed priest who bowed his head beside him, "In this place in the northern border, who can be ?!"

In the end, he finally felt a little angry.

"Yes... yes, Lord Cardinal." The white-robed priest answered cautiously, "The rebel army in the northern border...if they gather enough people, it is possible that Lord Maxim will be defeated for this..."

"Northern Rebels? But why did they travel thousands of miles from the base camp to Cedar Town?" Helmut sneered, "For Maxim?!"

"Or..." At this point, Helmut suddenly remembered what he and Oliveira said just now, "For...the prophesied, savior of the north?"

He had always known that, as a cardinal, Oliveira was very dissatisfied with the actions of the Holy Church, and the fact that he released political prisoners and capable persons without permission was the best proof.

So who can make her risk everything, even confess all crimes, but still want to protect her without hesitation?

At this moment, Helmut only felt enlightened.

If it weren't for the savior, Oliveira wouldn't be so protective.

If it wasn't for the savior, Maxim would not have died.

If it weren't for the savior, the rebel army would not have rushed to meet him from thousands of miles away.

Everything makes sense.

It's just that Maxim's death has added a lot of obstacles to the implementation of the Kingdom of God plan.

Every believer in the "God" path in the Holy Cult needs a lot of resources to cultivate, and believers who can be promoted to the level of "Martyrs" in Sequence Seven are already the mainstay of the Holy Cult.

Now marching to the front line of the northern border, believers are needed to join the army.

And to carry out the next step of the Kingdom of God plan, believers in the "God" path are needed to implement it.

What's more, not only Maxim, but also the thieves he had spent a lot of time recruiting, who could have been used by him, were all killed in the joint raid of the rebels and the savior.

This made Shengjiao's advance in the direction of Cedar Town much slower.

Thinking of this, Helmut breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the white-robed priest with an inexplicable smile, "Dryen, send me an order."

"Yes, Lord Cardinal!" The white-robed priest secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and hastily raised his head to answer.

"Drop two teams of fanatics and head all the way from Cedar Town to the rebel camp. The speed can be slow, but they can't be spotted."

Helmut chuckled, "Since the savior has come into the world, we should give a welcome surprise."

Zealot Squad!
The white-robed priest secretly frightened, but was quickly restrained by himself, "Master Cardinal, are you sure?"

The elite team of fanatics needs three believers from the "God" path, six "Righteousness" path, and four believers from the "Light" path.

The only ones who can easily defeat them are the patrol squad, as well as the cardinal and the Pope's personal guards.

And when the Holy Church needs to march north to prevent a counterattack, this is already the greatest force that Helmut himself can draw—although other cardinals cooperate with him, they do not have the same interests.

"Drian, do you know why I chose you?" Helmut sighed.

The white-robed priest Derian immediately kept silent.

"Be obedient and do things quickly, as long as these two points are enough." He patted Derian's shoulder lightly, "Okay, let's go."

"During this time, our attention needs to be slightly diverted from Cardinal Oliveira."

"Yes!"
