Originally, he was still worried that it would be troublesome to change the bishop, but he didn't expect that he was still the same guy, even more greedy and lewd than the old bastard before. He started, and Saintess Leia never interfered, and got a lot of very useful information from him, so he deserves to be treated like this by Khakis.

"My lord is satisfied with the gemstones I sent my servants a few days ago." Khakis clapped his hands, and a group of seductive women came with wine.

"That's very satisfying." The cardinal laughed, looked at the group of seductive women, waved his hand, and signaled to leave.

"Huh?" Khakis was a little puzzled, but he still let these women back down, "Is the Bishop not in the mood today?"

"No, I came here today because I want to talk to His Majesty the king about something serious." The cardinal said.

"Oh?" Khakis became a little more serious, "I am willing to listen to you."

"It's not a big deal, it's just that the church has to hold some activities as a rule, and baptism for the sons and daughters of those low-level civilians is all superficial work, and I didn't have much interest at first, because you know, the smell of those low-level brats is really ..." As he spoke, the cardinal showed a disgusted expression and waved his hands.

"Hahahaha, it's really hard for you to have such an activity, my lord bishop." Khakis laughed.

"It's just that the church is pressing hard. It just so happens that the imperial capital is in turmoil during this period. It's not bad to take this opportunity to appease the people. I also have something to say about the support for the work of the church." The cardinal said.

"Hmm..." Khakis thought for a while, then nodded, "Then I will trouble you, Bishop."

"Where it is, it's not troublesome at all, as long as it can help His Majesty the King." The cardinal waved his hand.

Khakis just smiled, there is something in this old nonsense, just now he obviously disliked this and that, but now he said it nicely, there must be some conditions.

"Speaking of which, I have a few bottles of good wine recently, but I haven't had a chance to let the bishop taste them." Khakis began to test.

Unexpectedly, the cardinal shook his head, showing a very lewd expression, "I don't need the wine, it's just that a few toys have broken recently. I wonder if His Majesty has something special and durable?"

Hmph, what a perverted old ghost.

Khakis cursed in his heart, but on the surface he greeted him with a smile, "There are some, and the bishop must be satisfied."

The cardinal's acting skills and the greedy image he created made Khakis have no doubts. For him, this so-called "scumbag" was sometimes more trustworthy than the so-called gentleman.

Today is a good day. In a well-known tavern in the imperial capital, a small but lively small banquet was held.

In the lobby of the tavern, there was a ten-meter-long wooden table covered with a white cloth, on which there were fruit salads, tender and attractive meat, refreshing and delicious vegetables, hot soup, and various Although the various breads and desserts are not as luxurious as the princes and nobles, they are still pleasing to the eye.

The people gathered here have different identities, ranging from ordinary civilians who work in agriculture to small officials who hold half-time positions in the imperial palace. Children are playing and playing in the hall, and then their mothers grab their ears and teach them, crying. Voices, conversations, and laughter are mixed together, making it very lively.

It wasn't until the host of the banquet arrived that everyone present slowly quieted down.

Rock was wearing a straight suit, with his hair combed back, showing a bit of heroism.

His wife, Manny, was wearing a purple dress, her long hair was carefully coiled, and her face was lightly made up, she was gentle and beautiful.

And each of them holding a hand, walking in the middle is tonight's protagonist, Rock and Manny's precious 'daughter' Cory.

As soon as Lilith appeared on the stage, she attracted everyone's attention. They were amazed. They never expected that Rock and Manny could give birth to such a beautiful embryo. It would be terrible if it took a few years.

Looking at Roque's appearance, he is considered handsome, and looking at Manny's appearance, he is considered pretty, but how do two tens add up to one hundred?

Rock made a symbolic opening remark, and then began to introduce Lilith: "Everyone, this is my daughter Cory. She has been in poor health before, so many people have never seen her. Now she has recovered. I can be regarded as letting go of the big stone in my heart. It is my honor to share this joy with you at this moment. I specially set up a small banquet today, and please enjoy it to the fullest!"

"But before the banquet begins, I have to introduce and thank someone grandly!" Roque said, with his palms up, and his arms drew a semicircle from top to bottom. At the same time, he bent slightly, "That's Dr. Nuo Xi!"

Manny and Lilith also bowed their heads in respect.

"Hahahaha, you boy, Roque, are still doing something like this. Don't look at my old man, he is so thin-skinned. He should be blushing before he has drunk the wine." An old man with white hair smiled. , The humorous words also made the people around laugh, and he stepped forward to help Rockmanni and Lilith.

Dr. Nuo Xi, who is also a member of the Saint Trans Empire, has been lurking in the imperial capital for a long time. With his exquisite medical skills, he is considered well-known, and most of the people present know him.

Dr. Nuo Xi is trustworthy just like Roque, but the reason why Lilith trusts him is because, like Roque, he has a way to restrain him.

He was ordered to play this scene with Lilith and Roque, and with his long-term lurking and a certain reputation, he was justified and well-founded, and he was the perfect candidate.

"Dr. Nuo Xi's medical skills are superb. The recovery of my daughter Keli is inseparable from the long-term care of Dr. Nuo Xi. He is a great benefactor to our family. Roque is very grateful!" Roque bowed again.

"Hey, didn't you hear Dr. Nuoxi say that his face turned red before drinking? He wants you to toast, Roque."

"Yes, yes, if you don't satisfy Dr. Nuoxi today, you will feel sorry for this great benefactor."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

People around joked.

"Ah! That makes sense, come on! Dr. Nuoxi, I offer you a toast!" Roque raised his glass, clinked it with Dr. Nuoxi and drank it. Then, after filling it up, he raised his glass again, "The banquet has officially begun! Please, please Eat, drink, and have fun!"

Looking at this lively scene, the corners of Lilith's mouth curled up.

The first step is done.

……

……

The next day, during the morning market hours, the streets of Huangdu were bustling with people and extremely lively.

Suddenly, there was a flash of golden light in the sky, and a golden ball of light fell from the sky and landed in the very center of Huangdu Square, attracting the attention of countless people.

"what is this?"

"what happened?"

"What happened?"

"It's so bright, just like the sun."

At this time, members of the Church of the Holy Light in teaching uniforms appeared directly below the ball of light. They wore hoods, with indifferent expressions, and then knelt down.

Seeing this, some devout believers around them also knelt down. Although they didn't know what happened, if church members knelt down, they would also kneel down. Only some civilians were left with puzzled faces and discussions.

"God's grace shines!" The golden ball of light made a sound, and there was a sacred majesty that resounded throughout the entire imperial capital, "For the protection of the country and the people! For the protection of the holy light! The darkness needs to be washed away to keep it holy! The place shrouded in divine light ! The holy and pure water will be given!"

The sound ended, and the light sphere split into three small light spheres, which seemed to land in three places randomly chosen in the imperial capital.

"This is……"

"The baptism scripture?"

"Blessed by the Holy Light! Blessed by the Holy Light! He actually chose the place where we live!"

"Oh my god... that's great!"

Some civilians who understood the meaning and were selected cheered.

"Tomorrow, Cardinal Mandos, the branch of the Church of the Holy Light! He will visit the place selected by the light sphere and baptize your children in person!" The members of the church announced loudly again.

In the civilian apartment, Lilith was sitting in the living room, a golden light came in through the window, and Roque was startled, with a vigilant expression on his face.

"It's okay, this place was chosen." Lilith explained, looking at the golden light.

"Choose?" Rock was puzzled, "Choose what?"

"baptism."

"Baptism?" Roque replied after thinking for a while, "Is the Church of the Holy Light's baptism ceremony for children?"

"Yes." Lilith nodded, "You don't have to worry about anything, just let nature take its course."

"Is this part of the plan?"

"Yes, part of the plan." Lilith kept looking at the golden light.

dong dong dong.

After continuous knocks on the door, the voice of the neighbor woman came from outside the door, "Mr. Rock! Good news! Good news!"

Rotor straightened his expression and went to open the door.

Lilith picked up the rag doll that had been placed under the table, and her originally indifferent expression immediately changed to one of childishness and innocence.

"What's the matter? Madam Lina?" Rock opened the door with a puzzled expression.

"Aunt Lina!" Lilith walked forward with the doll, "Look, mom made it for me."

"Hey! So cute! This doll is so cute! Have you given her a name, Cory?" The woman liked Lilith very much, and asked softly as she knelt down.

"Cole, go play by yourself first, Aunt Lina seems to have something to say." Rock frowned slightly.

"Hmm... well..." Lilith looked aggrieved.

"Speaking of which, what is Madam Lina trying to say? What good news?" Rock asked.

"Oh!" The woman stood up abruptly, with an excited expression, "Didn't you see the golden light outside the window? We have been chosen! Children can be baptized by the Church of the Holy Light! Didn't Cory just recover? The pair She benefits a lot!"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"So that's the case, that's a good thing!" Rock also showed an excited and happy expression, "I just said why there is a golden light outside the window, so it looks like this!"

"Isn't it!" The woman was also enthusiastic, and immediately came to inform Roque after learning about this, because she thought it would be good for Lilith, "The notice said it was tomorrow! Repair the potholes, after all, the cardinal is coming, even though the place has been in disrepair for a long time, he must make it beautiful to be sincere!"

"That's okay, then I'll clean up and help later." Rock said with a smile.

"Oh, no, no, I didn't come here to ask you to come out to work. Cory just recovered, and I have more time to spend with her. The neighbors in this neighborhood know it. After all, it's not a troublesome thing, and they will understand you." The woman shook her head, saying no.

"It doesn't matter, one more person is more powerful."

"It's really not necessary! Well, I'm going to be busy, you can spend more time with Ke Li." The woman waved to Lilith, "Ko Li, you have to listen to Dad, auntie is leaving first .”

"Well, goodbye, auntie." Lilith nodded obediently.

The woman left, Roque closed the door, Lilith restored her calm expression, put the doll on the table, and said, "You are really enthusiastic."

"Yeah..." Roque breathed a sigh of relief, thoughtfully, "Although I haven't had much contact with them before, I know that they are simple and good people. Is tomorrow's baptism deliberately arranged?"

"Yes, don't worry, it won't cause any bad influence." Lilith seemed to see what Roque was thinking, and added, "I also have a good impression of them."

"But everything will be focused on the plan. For the smooth progress of the plan, I can give up everything." Rock also expressed his determination.

Lilith didn't answer, but after thinking for a while, she turned and said, "I can tell you first, after the baptism, I will be called into the palace. You don't have to worry about anything, just play by ear and just go with the flow."

……

……

The next day, the imperial capital was busier than ever.

The baptism of the Holy Light Church is not only good for the children who receive the baptism, their families will also be blessed, and the onlookers also firmly believe that being baptized by the Holy Light will bring good luck.

Before dawn, the Imperial Knights, soldiers of the Empire, would be stationed outside Lilith's apartment.

They moved quickly, using manpower and magic, and quickly set up viewing seats. Judging from the situation, it seemed that some high-ranking imperial officials were about to come.

Leaving aside the noisy sounds outside the apartment, just because the Church of the Holy Light will come here for the baptism ceremony, most households are so anticipating that they can’t sleep. In addition, there are also small chats.

"Wow, in this battle, even the Imperial Knights are here."

"Is there any high-ranking official coming?"

"Sir? I heard that His Majesty the King is coming!"

"what!?"

"Your Majesty the King? My God, will the Lord Protector of the Country also come?"

"It's very possible! Although I've never seen what Lord Saint looks like."

"Me too, me too."

……

……

Lilith's apartment was the last place, and when the cardinal was baptized in the second place, they were ready to wait outside.

The soldiers waited in full force, motionless, and the knights of the Knights were even more heroic, with gorgeous armor, tall bodies, sharp swords, standing neatly, full of oppression.

The common people have never seen such a battle before, they unconsciously tense up, they are quiet, and they dare not take a breath, only the children are yawning and drowsy because of getting up early, and some look at these knights with admiration. , wanted to go forward, but was held tightly by his parents, for fear that they would make some disrespectful behavior and cause trouble.

"His Majesty the King is here! The Holy One is here! The Bishop is here!"

Suddenly, the soldier shouted loudly, making everyone startled and stood up quickly.

"See Your Majesty the King! See Your Lord Saint! See Your Lord Bishop!" The soldiers and knights knelt down one after another, the voices were deafening.

Other civilians also knelt down one after another.

Khakis, who had been to and fro for a few places, was a little tired, and sat with Trent, while the cardinal stood below.

"Let's get started." The tone was a little impatient, Khakis propped his chin with one hand, his eyes were indifferent, and he waved his hand lightly.

"Yes, Your Majesty the King." The cardinal saluted slightly and said to everyone, "Get up."
