Calamity Dragon, Starting with the Cultivation of Knight Families

Chapter 78 Cardinal Tyr, Another Miracle Descends (14, Seeking First Subscription)

Swamp Territory, Baron's Mansion.

Although it was already night, the lights were still on.

Baron York sat on one side of the long conference table, while Oleg, the resident missionary, and more than a dozen missionaries from various places sat on the other side.

“As early as the second day after the divine oracle was sent, I sent a magical letter to Cardinal Tyr, but unfortunately I have not received a reply. Now the situation has deteriorated to this point, and I do not know where he has gone, or whether he has died or has been imprisoned by the royal family.”

Oleg said with a slightly worried expression.

"Cardinal Tyre?"

York's expression immediately hardened upon hearing this.

At the same time, he quickly frowned and showed alarm: "Oleg is a resident priest. If I remember correctly, this Cardinal Tyre is one of the six cardinals?"

"Is he trustworthy? Didn't you consider the consequences of trusting the wrong person?"

Oleg sighed upon hearing this and said bluntly:
"Your Excellency need not worry about that. Tyr has dedicated his entire life to my lord."

"Power and money were irrelevant to him, and he himself did not leave any offspring in the world, so all the temptations of the world were like dust to him."

"His faith is beyond doubt, and although he was one of the cardinals, he had no real power within the church. His life was only dedicated to preaching and teaching the faith to believers."

"Including myself, half of the people here were actually trained by him."

"As our teachers, no one knows His devotion to our Lord better than we do."

"He was merely a devout ascetic, and also an incredibly kind old man."

York's expression immediately softened upon hearing this.

But upon hearing this news, York was puzzled.

"Cardinal Tyre is actually Oleg's mentor, the one who resident in church there? And you..."

York means very simple.

Because the six cardinals of the Church of Truth are among the most powerful figures under the Pope.

Even if Tyre didn't have any real power, with his status, he should have had no problem protecting Oleg back then, right? How could Oleg have fallen to the lowest level of a resident missionary?
To this, Oleg gave a bitter smile and said:

"Precisely because my mentor was an ascetic, and because he only devoutly believed in our Lord, he was actually a very detached person in a certain sense."

"In any case, you will know if Your Excellency has the opportunity to meet him."

Oleg didn't want to say more, but York had already made the connection.

York had heard of Cardinal Tyre's great name.

After all, this cardinal is a legendary figure in the Church of Truth.

Three hundred years ago, he participated in the war against the orcs led by the Storm God.

A young genius who reached the advanced level in just a century, and as a guardian knight, his performance on the battlefield was also outstanding, slaying more than ten thousand orcs.

Unfortunately, he was severely injured by the Beast God Chen Shidai Xing, and from then on, he stagnated.

Even so, it still possesses seventh or even eighth-order power, and living for five hundred years should not be a problem at all.

If that's the case, this legendary old man probably doesn't have much time left to live.

Even so, given his status as a cardinal teacher within the church, he must have taught a considerable number of missionaries.

No wonder, even in his old age, he still holds a firm position as one of the six cardinals.

If Oleg could persuade him, the help to the Swamp Territory would be substantial.

Therefore, upon realizing all this, York immediately said apologetically:

"I see, it seems I misunderstood Oleg's resident mission!"

Oleg waved his hand in response.

"My lord, there is no need for such concern. It is only natural that you have this worry."

"However, more than that, I'd like to know what your plans are next, my lord?"

"The Duke's mansion has already issued a notice. If things are really difficult to handle, perhaps you can hand me over."

"It has always been our long-cherished wish to dedicate ourselves to the God of Truth."

Oleg looked very serious and devout.

After all, Oleg's missionary work in the swamp territory was an open secret, and if York didn't hand him over, or even lied about it, it would easily arouse the ducal mansion's suspicion.

York, however, did not take this to heart.

After all, he had contacted the Rock Steel Dragon as early as yesterday, and even knew that His Majesty Linko was not in a hurry to return to the divine kingdom, but was still staying in the wasteland in the body of a substitute.

York dared not ask what exactly was going on, nor would he, but he figured His Majesty must have his reasons.

And at this moment, His Majesty must also be watching this scene unfold.

York immediately wanted to say something.

However, just then, there was a knock on the door.

"My lord, I apologize for interrupting your meeting, but an old missionary has come to the door. He specifically asks for Oleg, the resident missionary, and you, my lord."

Paul, the knight's squire, spoke.

Upon hearing this, Oleg and York exchanged a glance, and then York spoke.

"Bring him in."

Soon, when Paul arrived again and opened the conference room door, an old man in a gray robe appeared before York and Oleg.

The old man was hunched over, his gray robe covered in dust.

York wanted to ask the old man's identity immediately, but the next moment, Oleg and several missionaries beside him exclaimed in surprise:
"Lord Tyr?!"

"You are Lord Tyr?!" Tyr?

York was suddenly startled.

The old man lifted his hat, revealing an unusually dignified expression.

Although his face was full of wrinkles, and his body was withered as if he was about to die.

But he seemed very energetic.

York didn't know how to describe that spirit, but he finally understood what a true ascetic was!
The ascetic glanced at Oleg and the others, nodded slightly, and then looked at York.

His eyes were incredibly sharp.

He stared at York and said bluntly:
"I suppose you are the Lord of this place, Baron York?"

“Then tell me everything about my lord! Of course, Oleg, I would also like to hear your account in detail.”

"If you want to change everything, if you want to save as many innocent lives as possible in the kingdom, then tell me, and let me be sure of everything!"

The old man's voice was incredibly loud, and he didn't even seem very polite when he spoke.

But York still vaguely sensed a tremor in the old man's voice.

This was due to the extreme effort required to control one's emotions.

York and Oleg exchanged another glance, and were about to speak.

But then, a series of unexpected events occurred.

Because York heard the oracle!

The moment the oracle arrived, York's expression immediately became incredibly excited.

So, York restrained his emotions and solemnly addressed the old man:

“Bishop Tyre truly deserves to be called the most devout believer of the God of Truth.”

“My Lord, His Majesty, noble, great and merciful, has noticed your arrival and has once again issued a divine decree.”

"He will summon you."

Upon hearing York's words, Oleg and more than ten other missionaries were all momentarily stunned.

The old man's gaze froze for a moment, and then his body trembled again, almost imperceptibly to everyone else.

The old man closed his eyes tightly, as if he was trying to compose himself.

He then opened his eyes again and looked at York with gentle eyes, giving a deep bow with his hand on his chest.

"Then, I'll trouble you, Baron, to lead the way."

Without any hesitation, the gates of the Baron's Castle opened again late at night.

Then, a group of people rode out in single file.

Their target was deep in the forests east of the swamp territory.

Lin Ke had prepared everything in preparation for their arrival.

It's time for a grand, unrestrained miracle!
And nighttime is the perfect time to amplify miracles!
Deep within the forest, the giant rock-steel dragon stood up.

He looked up at the sky.

At this moment, dark clouds rolled in, the moon disappeared, and the stars vanished.

It's perfect for the 'divine intervention' effect.

Fortunately, when I entered the game on the day of the simulation, I still had the various function options of the game operation in my mind.

Otherwise, Lin Ke might have missed a major opportunity this time.

Yes, it's a gamble, a chance to make a completely legitimate appearance in the Kingdom of Eagles.

Of course, there are many risks involved, but now is the best time to take a chance.

Once you miss it, it's gone forever!
So this time, Lin Ke went all out!

Fortunately, he still had the Gate of Truth as a way out; otherwise, he wouldn't have made such a bold choice this time!

It was daring, but it was all worth it.

Cardinal Tyre's identity is too special!
How many 'students' have I taught over the past three hundred years?

His appeal is absolutely no less than that of the Pope of the Church of Truth, and may even surpass it.

No wonder such an old man on his deathbed has been able to hold the position of cardinal for three hundred years in a church that has been corrupted by secularism, with only the strength of a seventh-rank official.

Yes, under Lin Ke's watchful eye, nothing could hide; the system displayed the information directly.

The cardinal's head was prominently displayed with a seven-tiered subtitle.

Although a seventh-tier rank is not strong, its significance lies in its extremely special and important status.

If they gain his trust, everything will fall into place naturally, and Linko and the Swamp Territory won't even need to do anything else.

The only thing to do is perhaps to wait, to wait for the cardinal to stand on high and give a shout and a call to action.

Then everything after that is entirely up to fate.

Of course, some details might be manipulated, but it's too early to talk about that now.

This requires Linco to truly gain the trust of this cardinal.

"This is it, I hope I made the right choice!"

Link's eyes were extremely serious, and at the same time, through a visual switch, he realized that York was approaching the center of the forest.

The next moment, the Rock Steel Dragon suddenly let out the loudest roar of its life!
At the same time, accompanied by a violent roar, the giant rock-steel dragon soared straight into the sky like an arrow.
