Healing spells copy everything, I've cleared the Abyss

Chapter 218 Backstab from the Vatican

After Lin Ye restarted the Holy Flame Path, the old guys in the Holy Core once hoped to win over Lin Ye and let him join the Holy See.

However, regardless of whether Lin Ye is willing or not, the people chosen by Shengshu themselves have actually already demonstrated how indifferent and perfunctory they are in this matter.

It was a mistake for them to let Qin Lu, who hated Lin Ye to the core, come forward to recruit Lin Ye.

At this moment, Lin Ye's remarks had basically completely cut off the possibility of entering the Holy See, and Qin Lu was naturally happy to see this.

In his opinion, there was no need to compromise with Lin Ye.

After all, even the huge Professional Alliance had to hold its nose and bear it in front of the Holy See. How could Lin Ye, a mere second-level priest, really cause such a stir?

Maybe one day, he would be eliminated by the devil of the abyss because he was too active, and the Church would not even need to take action.

In history, are there not many geniuses who died young because of their high status?

Qin Lu doesn't care about these at all.

Or in other words, what if I care?
As for the hall, Qin Doufeng lowered his head, thinking...

He actually felt a sense of identification with what Lin Ye said.

But this was completely contrary to the education he had received since childhood. At that moment, his heart was filled with a feeling of disconnection.

There was a constant struggle between conscience and desire in my mind.

Even what the archbishops were saying was a little unclear.

"Fight the wind!"

At this moment, a dissatisfied roar startled Qin Doufeng.

He immediately looked up, only to see Qin Lu looking at him with dissatisfaction.

"Archbishop, what do you want me to do?" Qin Doufeng immediately bowed.

As the head deacon, his duty is to do everything according to the bishop's instructions.

It can be said that he was supposed to be an emotionless machine, executing any orders from Qin Lu!
Of course, he is generally responsible for any consequences of this order.

In the final analysis, it is a position that requires both work and taking responsibility.

Moreover, not just anyone can hold this kind of position. Only disciples from the side branches of the twelve aristocratic families are qualified.

After all, using these people to take the blame can convince the public, in other words, it is convincing.

"Take some people with you to support the Third Regiment and make sure to protect the stronghold we just captured!" Qin Lu said.

"The third regiment? Isn't that stronghold... ready to be abandoned?" Qin Doufeng reacted at this time and asked.

"Did you not hear a word of what I said just now?" Qin Lu slapped the armrest of his chair in dissatisfaction and said, "I have decided to hold on to that stronghold. If we give up, the alliance's strongholds on the east and west wings will be able to connect into a straight line. This situation must not be allowed!"

"That's right. Now we have a reason to defend the Third Regiment's stronghold."

"It doesn't matter how much it costs us. The most important thing is that we can't let the alliance take over this entire area."

"We have already contacted the Mad God Guild. They will also come to assist you in resisting the monsters' attacks. It won't be a big problem."

The other bishops also spoke at this time.

However, this mission of the bishops really confused Qin Doufeng.

Holding on to a stronghold that was about to be abandoned, only to prevent the alliance from establishing a stronghold there, could this form a linkage? "So? Do you want to refuse this mission?"

Qin Lu pressed the question, with a hint of annoyance in his eyes.

He was already very annoyed because of Lin Ye's matter, but he didn't know why Qin Doufeng, who was always obedient, wanted to provoke him.

"Understood, I'll go right away!"

Qin Doufeng was a little scared and immediately agreed.

Qin Lu is his grandfather and the person he has feared the most since he was a child. This serious, even somewhat harsh and violent old man never smiles at him.

Even though he is his biological grandfather, to Qin Doufeng, Qin Lu is just a superior who requires him to listen to his words and obey him 100% since he was a child.

Even though he had just been absent and didn't hear the whole story, Qin Doufeng knew that Qin Lu's change of attitude was definitely related to Lin Ye.

Because the stronghold captured by the alliance that Lin Ye was going to support was located on the east wing of the Third Regiment’s stronghold!
This round of monsters' counterattack was particularly fierce.

Even with the support of a large number of priests, the Third Regiment was still under great pressure.

Fortunately, the situation at the Alliance's stronghold on the east wing was not much better than that of the Third Regiment's stronghold, and the Alliance was even under greater pressure.

The bishops had previously decided to abandon the Third Regiment's stronghold because they assessed that if the Alliance's stronghold was lost, most of the pressure would inevitably shift to the Third Regiment.

Well, since it has come to this, why not just give up this already tricky stronghold?
Therefore, their previous decision was to abandon this stronghold...

And now they want to defend this stronghold, without a doubt, it is because of Lin Ye!

Although Qin Lu is full of hostility towards Lin Ye, it does not mean that he really doesn't care about the impact that Lin Ye brings.

With Lin Ye’s joining, the pressure on the alliance’s eastern stronghold will inevitably drop sharply!
It is very likely that we can successfully repel this wave of attacks from the abyss monsters.

Then, if the Holy See withdraws, the alliance can take advantage of the situation, seize the strongholds abandoned by the Holy See, and directly connect the three strongholds into one to achieve large-scale control.

If a new settlement is developed in this area in the future, the Holy See will have no say here!
Therefore, after discussion, these bishops decided to grit their teeth and hold on to this place.

He even went so far as to bring in the Mad God Guild for help.

"Don't worry, if necessary, I will go and lend you a hand and show my power on the battlefield." Qin Lu saw that Qin Doufeng looked embarrassed and thought that he was timid, so he spoke to comfort him.

Qin Doufeng bowed deeply and said, "Understood! I'll go right away!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

But my thoughts are very complicated...

Under such circumstances, Qin Lu and others were thinking about these things.

But to be honest, although the pressure on the Third Regiment was quite great, it wasn't to the point where they were about to collapse...

If Qin Lu is willing, letting Qin Doufeng lead the priest group to assist the alliance's east wing stronghold will definitely reduce the casualties of the alliance army. By the way, defending the east wing stronghold can also reduce the pressure on the stronghold where the third regiment of the Vatican Army is located.

However, Qin Lu did not choose to do so.

Instead, seeing the situation was bad, they retreated directly, ruthlessly stabbing the Allied forces in the back...

Now that he saw that the Allied forces had the possibility of holding the eastern wing stronghold, he ordered the three regiments to defend their stronghold to the death.

Although from the perspective of the Holy See, this was a choice made based solely on its own interests, it made Qin Doufeng feel even more uncomfortable.
