Chapter 163 The Holy Church, a great shame and humiliation

Just when Marshal Hong was preparing to contract the Tiger Cave, a hymn suddenly floated in the sky.

The faint holy light fell on the square and gradually became stronger.

In the distant sky, a golden carriage was speeding towards us.

In front of the carriage are six monsters with eagle heads and lion bodies and wings on their backs. They are sacred and majestic, with a faint golden light all over their bodies.

In front stood two priests wearing golden robes and golden sun crowns, singing hymns.

The existences on both sides are even more astonishing. They are two angels with halos above their heads, handsome faces, and a pair of white wings behind them!

This team, this scene, is simply the arrival of gods from myths and legends!
Not to mention the ordinary citizens who filled the scene, even the guests in the viewing seats changed their expressions and looked shocked.

There was a rustling noise at the scene.

On the stage, Marshal Hong's face was as dark as water.

The visitor completely stole his limelight!

Bai Huaian, who was standing under the stage, saw this and hurriedly stepped forward and secretly pulled off Marshal Hong's clothes.

In the audience seat, Shen Guanye was also surprised by the sudden change.

His eyes were fixed on the speeding golden carriage, and in his ears Bai Minyi and others asked each other in surprise.

The one pulling the cart in front is the griffin.

A level 10 heroic spirit from the Temple system.

Those flying on both sides of the golden carriage were the famous angels.

A level 13 heroic spirit from the Temple system.

Finally, there was the golden-robed priest who stood in front of the carriage and sang hymns.

Although his popularity is far lower than that of angels, his rank is no worse than angels.

This is the 13th-level heroic spirit of the temple system - the Sunsinger.

A super auxiliary heroic spirit, its role in large-scale wars is even greater than that of angels.

To be able to travel with such pomp and circumstance means that the visitor is either rich or noble in the Kingdom of Stars.

But yes, if you are not a big shot, how can you dare to slap Marshal Hong in the face in public?

The griffin landed on the ground and snorted, and then the golden carriage also landed on the ground.

The carriage door was opened, and a middle-aged man who looked like a butler stepped out first, followed by the owner.

It was beyond Shen Guanye's expectation.

The real owner is very young, so young that he can hardly hide his immaturity.

Blonde with blue eyes and a lot of freckles on his face.

His appearance is rather ordinary, not handsome. Even if he is wearing a dress customized by a master, he looks like an ordinary young Western boy.

But he is a young man who can pull a chariot with six griffins and be guarded by two angels and two sun chanters.

How could he be just an ordinary Western boy?
This young man's family background is probably one of the best in the world.

Under Bai Huaian's reminder, Marshal Hong had sorted out his emotions and came forward with a cheerful face.

"Master Brian, why are you here?"

Marshal Hong greeted in Zhongxing Mandarin.

Master Brian nodded and smiled at Marshal Hong in a friendly manner, showing a well-educated look, but did not answer.

"General Hong, would you like to take a step to speak?"

The butler stretched out his hand and signaled.

Marshal Hong followed the others to the side.

Then, the ceremony ended in a hurry.

It ends with an anticlimax and a hasty end.

In the car back to Baifu, after driving far away, Shen Guanye asked:
"What is the identity of Mr. Brian?"

The driver sat upright and didn't make a sound, pretending he didn't exist.

"He is the young master of the Devonshire family. The Devonshire family is an ancient noble family in the Star Kingdom and is prosperous to this day."

“It’s still very prestigious to this day.”

"It plays a pivotal role in today's Star Nation Congress and is an ancient family that can influence the national policy of the Star Nation."

Bai Minyi gave Shen Guanye a popular science guide.

After listening to the popular science, Shen Guanye finally understood the power of Master Brian.

The history, geography, and humanities of this world have many similarities with previous lives.

For example, there were great geographical discoveries.

But there are many differences.

For example, the Star Kingdom, which originally only lived in a corner of the Western Ocean, moved its capital after discovering the New World.

As a result, the pattern of great powers competing for hegemony that was supposed to be formed has turned into a pattern of one superpower and multiple powers.

The Star Kingdom is firmly ranked first in the world. Not only is it powerful enough to compete with all the other great powers, it can still defeat two or three great powers together.

Since the Devonshire family has a pivotal position in the Star Kingdom, it means that it has the qualifications to stir up troubles all over the world, as long as it wants to.

It is understandable that Marshal Hong was humiliated and could only greet him with a smile.

"The Devonshire family is the family that supports Marshal Hong."

Bai Minyi said the last thing.

Yes, then there is even less confidence.

The accident at the Tiger Cave Contract Ceremony stirred up an undercurrent centered on Canglang City, quickly surging around.

The scope of the impact even exceeded the three provinces of Zhenlong, Bishan and Tianshui, and spread to the farther land of Tianxia.

Bai Mansion, in the evening, Governor Bai finally came back.

He first politely invited Shen Guanye to have dinner with him, then returned to the study and got busy again.

When dinner was finally served on the table, he finished his work under the reminder of the housekeeper and came to the dining room.

"Brother Ye, I've kept you waiting for a long time."

Bai Huaian put his hand into the copper basin served by the servant to clean his hands, while expressing his apology.

"Uncle Bai, you are too outspoken."

Shen Guanye quickly stood up from his chair and said.

He still respected Bai Huaian very much.

Regardless of whether Bai Huaian valued his potential or had other motives.

Do not pretend to be kind to him.

He had been treated with sufficient courtesy since the first meeting. Today, he was invited to the family dinner and treated as a close nephew.

To put it bluntly, during the day, those rich boys would be so polite to him.

His outstanding qualities and his ability to take advantage of him are certainly one of the reasons, but the biggest reason is the courtesy given to him by the Bai family.

Including the servants of the Bai Mansion, they respected him very much, not just because they saw the attitude of their master.

Otherwise, do you think that all the servants of these wealthy families have such good tempers?

"No need to be formal, sit down."

Bai Huaian said while wiping his hands.

Everyone took their seats.

The Bai family is a big family, but there are only Bai Huaian's family in the dining room, so there are not many people at the dinner table.

Shen Guanye sat upright and ate in silence.

"Dad, what happened today?"

There seemed to be no rule in the Bai family that they should not talk during meals or sleep. Shortly after sitting down, Bai Minyi changed the topic to the daytime ceremony.

"The Devonshire family ordered Marshal Hong to hand over the Tiger Cave and let Brian make a contract. This young master Brian is also an Apocalypse Lord."

One sentence, like a depth charge, exploded the calm dining room into turbulent waves.

"This...how is this possible? Isn't this too arrogant?"

After staying for a few seconds, Bai Minyi said subconsciously.

"How is it impossible? The facts are right in front of us."

Bai Minyi still couldn't believe it.

"Then what compensation does the Devonshire family have? Is it a compensation for a Golden Winged Cavalry Temple?"

The Golden Winged Cavalry is a 12th-level heroic spirit from the temple system. It is very powerful, comparable to the famous Tiger among the 12th-level heroic spirits.

"No."

Sheriff Bai had a sullen face, and finally emphasized it again.

"Nothing at all."

Bai Minyi's eyes widened.

This...this is like treating the commander as a domestic servant.

Compared to Bai Minyi, Shen Guanye, who was sitting aside, acted much calmer.

Apart from being a little surprised at first, I calmed down later.

Not only did he calm down, he even sneered in his heart.

This young master Brian and the Devonshire family behind him dare to be so arrogant and slap Marshal Hong in the face in public. It is not Marshal Hong who asked for it.

"All the gifts given by fate have been secretly priced."

If you surrender your sovereignty, become a comprador, or become a traitor, you are destined to be inferior in front of the giver of the gift and never be able to stand upright.

This is the price that has been set long ago!
The Devonshire family treats Marshal Hong not as a domestic servant, but as a dog!

Thinking of this, Shen Guanye couldn't help but feel a secret fire in his heart.

He has always looked down upon Marshal Hong.

No matter how powerful this person is, no matter how hard he tries to clear himself.

In his heart, they are all big traitors.

Today's humiliation is entirely your own fault.

But by doing this, the Devonshire family seemed to be humiliating only Marshal Hong, but in essence, it was treating the entire Tianxia and its hundreds of millions of people as nothing.

How arrogant.

He is so arrogant that people want to immediately pull him off the throne, drag him into the dust, retreat into the mud, and then step hard into the mud with his face in his face.Sheriff Bai obviously understood this, so his expression was very gloomy.

"But why do the Devonshire family do this? Aren't they afraid that Marshal Hong will hold a grudge?"

Bai Minyi thinks this is too fantasy.

Although Marshal Hong made his fortune in the Star Kingdom, he is now one of the most prominent warlords in the country. He has countless soldiers under his command and has two 13th-level heroic spirit lairs.

In order to capture the Tiger Cave, many high-level combat forces were lost.

Now the Devonshire family wants to take away the Tiger Cave directly without any compensation.

With Marshal Hong's character of retribution, wouldn't he be so angry?

Sheriff Bai sighed and said:
"The Star Kingdom is actually doing this to warn Marshal Hong and ask him to restrain himself."

How could Marshal Hong be willing to live under others for a long time?
He has actually been doing some little tricks over the years.

It's not that I want to break away from the control of the Star Kingdom, I just want to have more bargaining chips when facing the backers behind me.

Of course, if there was a chance to escape control, he would not hesitate.

It's a pity that the Star Kingdom obviously cannot let Marshal Hong do this.

No, suppression is coming.

"By the way, Brother Ye, your position has been adjusted."

"You will be transferred to Canglang City in a while, and the positions of security section chief and battalion commander will be vacant."

Shen Guanye was very surprised.

Although his merits are certainly enough, his strength is far beyond it.

But it is still a bit surprising to be promoted so quickly, and this must be indispensable for the operation behind the faction of Governor Bai.

Therefore, it was a very correct decision to join the government faction.

There is a huge difference between being organized and being unorganized.

"Uncle Bai, who will take over these two positions?"

"The position of battalion commander should be taken over by your current deputy battalion commander, named Gu Qingyu, right?"

Bai Huaian is so knowledgeable that he can even remember the name of a small deputy battalion commander like Gu Qingyu.

"Yes, his name is Gu Qingyu."

Shen Guanye was very happy.

Gu Qingyu was his. After being promoted to battalion commander, Hongdong Camp was still his base, which was much better than airdropping a battalion commander from outside.

"What about the position of Chief of Public Security Section? Do you have any recommendations?"

Sheriff Bai asked.

Shen Guanye thought for a moment.

Shen Guanchao's qualifications are too low and promotion would do more harm than good.

There is also Lei Bao. His qualifications are sufficient and more than enough, but his strength is not enough.

Although he was promoted to a level some time ago and became a level 3 apocalypse.

But there is still a long way to go before he can take the position of Chief of Public Security Section of Hongdong County.

"I don't know many people, so I don't have anyone to recommend. Uncle Bai, do you have anyone you like?"

Shen Guanye said truthfully.

"Then let the people below make the selection," Bai Huaian skipped the topic, "Your transfer to Canglang City is also a temporary transition. There will be a more important position for you in the future."

At the end of the sentence, Bai Huaian couldn't help but smile.

"Dad, what's your position?"

Before Shen Guanye, the person involved, could speak, Bai Minyi couldn't help but ask.

"This matter has not been completely decided yet. We will know when the time comes."

Shen Guanye said:
"Uncle Bai, is this appropriate?"

He has only been working for such a short time, so being able to skip a level is a bit of an exception.

Jump two levels in a row?

Even if the beneficiary is himself, it feels a bit inappropriate.

"What's inappropriate about this? Those who can do more work."

"You have such powerful heroic spirits under your command. Sitting in the position of director and battalion commander will only limit your performance."

"Only in a higher position can you use your full strength."

“You need to know that with great power comes great responsibility.”

Shen Guanye was convinced.

He is not really only 19 years old. Even if he suddenly sits in a high position, he can still hold his own.

"By the way, Brother Ye. Your Apocalypse profession is a bit special, right?"

Bai Huaian asked coldly.

This day is finally here.

Shen Guanye thought to himself.

When he chose to expose Gu Jian Tong Zi and Mo Mei Niang to the public, he expected that some people would doubt his Apocalypse profession.

Because ordinary Confucian scholars cannot be so powerful.

"Correct."

Shen Guanye admitted frankly.

Nothing to deny.

With his current strength and status, he can already withstand a rare and powerful Apocalypse profession.

Coincidentally, Bai Huaian was the first to ask this question.

Bai Huaian not only has a very high status, but is also an elder who has good intentions towards him.

He admitted it frankly, not only would he not be threatened, but he could also use this to make the matter of "having a special apocalyptic profession" clear.

Equivalent to official certification.

Why not?
"I don't know the specific name. I've never heard anyone mention it, and I've never seen a similar occupation in books."

Shen Guanye continued, telling lies casually:

"I call it Tianyan Layman. It has the ability to transform into heavenly spirits. Every time it reaches two levels, it can enlighten one heavenly spirit."

The advanced state of lying is nine truths and one falsehood.

Although Shen Guanye planned to admit that his Tianqi profession was unusual, he did not intend to tell the truth about how extraordinary it was.

Because it is definitely not something that he can bear now if he really reveals all the power of the God Lord.

Maybe Bai Huaian in front of him will become greedy.

Therefore, he could only downplay his ability.

Fortunately, Su Yuan's Taoist priest Huang Ting gave him inspiration.

It also gave him a reference to know what the upper limit of the world's resistance to Tianqi's profession was.

Sure enough, after listening to Shen Guanye's story, Bai Huaian said thoughtfully:

"It sounds very similar to the ability of Huang Tingnu of the National Salvation Association."

Then, Bai Huaian smiled broadly and encouraged:
"Very good. Your profession of Apocalypse is even better than your status as Lord of Apocalypse, and your future is limitless. Work hard and shoulder your burdens."

Although the upper limit of Lord Apocalypse is high, it is only theoretical.

In reality, most Apocalypse Lords can only do as much as Mrs. Su.

Become a general and become a prime minister, dominate one side?
Only a handful of Apocalypse Lords can do that.

The special apocalyptic profession of Tianyan layman is different, the upper and lower limits are very high.

For the degree of attention she receives, just see Huang Tingnu.

Shen Guanye is from the Bai family, so naturally the higher his potential, the better.

"I will work hard, Uncle Bai."

Shen Guanye responded.

The trip to Canglang City made Shen Guanye more aware of the importance of strengthening himself.

The shamelessness, hegemony and arrogance of imperialism are the same in any world and in any era.

They want to be qualified for equal dialogue and have justice against imperialism.

Only you can be strong!

Therefore, after returning to Hongdong County, Shen Guanye took steps to secretly increase his strength.

Soon after, the order from above also came down.

He will be promoted to the position of director of the Zhenlong Provincial Public Security Department and take office later this year.

The level was slightly upgraded, but the power and position increased a lot.

A more important future.

Being able to enter the provincial department, who doesn't know that this is a precursor to being greatly reused?
In addition, Gu Qingyu also successfully took over the position of battalion commander.

As for the position of the Director of Public Security, it was taken by a fifth-level Apocalypse from Canglang City.

Then there is the leader of the hometown protection group. After Shen Guanye goes to Canglang City, he will definitely no longer be able to hold the position of leader.

This time, Shen Guanye did not show off his style.

He directly appointed Shen Shengshan as the group leader.

The hometown protection group was originally organized by him, and most of them were his confidants.

In addition, he asked two imperial guards to stand next to Shen Shengshan, and the force value was enough.

Even if others want to say something, they can't say anything.

Also promoted together with Shen Guanye was Governor Chen.

His qualifications are actually a bit behind.

But as a parent official, discovering talents is also an integral part of political achievements.

Governor Chen discovered Shen Guanye, a top talent, and his promotion was expected.

Governor Chen went to the neighboring city and joined the municipal government of the neighboring city.
