Chapter 397 7.51 Fire Bishop "Microa"

The old sheikh hid his body in the shadows of the street and walked quickly in the flickering firelight.

Thanks to the natural concealment of "Zoroastrianism", Arabs are naturally very good at camouflage.

On the street, most men wrapped their heads tightly. They wore loose black robes, covered their heads with hoods, and walked quickly with their heads down.

As for women, all of them wore veils, revealing only a pair of eyes. After years of operation by Zoroastrianism, this is a nation that is naturally very wary of outsiders.

For the old sheikh, this is a very good habit.

As long as the whole body is covered with a black robe, everyone's appearance is infinitely close to the same, and it is almost impossible to tell any difference.

Finding a shadow, the old sheikh quickly covered himself with a black robe, and then joined the crowd on the street and walked straight to the Fire Temple.

This is the tallest building in this area. The iconic giant dome and the four burning braziers around it make it easy for anyone to find its location.

He did not choose the main entrance, but came to the side hall and knocked three times on a hidden secret door.

Then he took out a copper seal and inserted it from the bottom of the door.

After a while, the secret door opened. The old priest who walked into the side hall had not had time to adapt to the dark fire priest "Abi Jean" in front of him.

Abi Jean's eyes were full of surprise.

"My old friend, the Lord of Fire, aren't you leaving this city?!"

Francis shook his head helplessly. What the black brother said was indeed right. After conveying the message to Loki that "don't enter the city, run away immediately", he had already packed his bags and made plans to escape.

However, he did not expect Loki to lead Alfred across the English Channel. He was forced to follow him back to the city.

"Listen to me, my buddy, the plan has changed!"

"My fearless boss actually wants to go to the Inquisition to compete with these French bastards. I have no choice but to follow him back."

"Today I need to spend money to 'buy' a service!"

Patriarch Francis is a big fish that Abi Jean met in Shuanghe City. In line with the principle of "don't take advantage if you have a bargain", when the old patriarch got the promotion order and went to Paris, Abi Jean also moved to this city immediately.

The two continued to cooperate with each other, and Abi Jean, like his professional manager, satisfied all his services in the "Zoroastrianism".

"I have a hunch that my brothers will be tried together tomorrow."

"These brothers are used to being independent. They will definitely not obey the judge's verdict honestly"

"If the battle starts and the two sides meet with swords and axes, I hope that the 'Fire Transmission Gang' can arrange a way out of the city for us." As he said, the old patriarch took out the silver bill hidden in his sleeve.

"One hundred thousand imperial silver coins, is that enough?"

"Tsk tsk"

Abi Jean shook his head, looking embarrassed.

"Loki Starrag is the hottest prisoner. You know, this is related to the big guys lurking under the surface."

Other people on this continent may not know the secrets of the Illuminati, but the "Fire Transmission Gang" with hidden identities are all over the world, and the high-level intelligence dealers in the Zoroastrianism have almost all the secrets of the world.

They naturally know that the actual rulers of the Illuminati are a group of lizardmen wearing human skins.

"The Illuminati and the Plantagenet family have close ties. But my 'Zoroastrianism' is not a friend of the French royal family.

That 'Emperor Charlemagne' has tried to drive us out of Paris more than once because we leaked too much information about the futures market, causing French merchants to suffer a lot of losses."

"He just lacks an excuse."

"Sending you hot potatoes out of the city may give him this excuse. What we need to bear is the loss of this Fire Temple. The Fire Gang in Paris will be in a latent state for a long time.

During this period of time, no information can be efficiently transmitted.

Do you think this is a problem that can be solved by a mere 100,000 silver coins?"

Pastor Francis nodded silently.

It is undeniable that what Abi Jean said is true.

After a long silence, the black brother spoke again.

"Brother Francis, you are not unaware of the price of the 'Archbishop of Susa'."

"The reason why he asked me to stay by your side and serve you, the 'Archbishop', is because of the two portal keys in the hands of Duke Loki!"

"Whether it is the portal that can enter the 'Water City' or the portal that can enter 'Asgard'. Any portal key"

"As long as you reveal the location of the portal, you can choose any price!"

"Why do you have to stay by the side of this duke? The archbishop has said that as long as you can help us get the portal key, you want to be a 'city-state elder' in a province, which is not a problem at all!"

This is exactly why the "Fire Worship Cult" allows Patriarch Francis to enjoy the VIP treatment of "a fire priest serving alone".

They know that the old Patriarch is a popular person around Loki.

The fact that the two are inseparable now does not mean that there will be no disagreements in the future.

If the two have any conflicts in the future, it may not be as difficult to pry open the old Patriarch's mouth as it is today.

Francis smiled wryly and shook his head.

"Brother Abby, don't question my loyalty to Duke Loki. Let's not mention that I don't know the location of the portal at all. Even if it is clear, I will not reveal it."

"I don't feel any burden in betraying the English! I have witnessed too many of their evil deeds in my parents' pub since I was a child!"

"If it weren't for these English bastards, I should still have a home now."

"But Duke Loki is the Holy Lord who truly gave me new life. He is my Holy Lord Christ!"

"If the price of 100,000 silver coins is not enough, I can only ask you to find the bishop of this 'Temple of Fire' to see if he can accept the next bargaining chip I propose."

Abi Jean blinked hesitantly. He knew that the old patriarch had some abilities, but the secrets that the "bishop" of the Fire Temple had access to were usually enough to subvert the political power.

Could it be that this old man has any resources equivalent to the portal key?

Nodding doubtfully, Abi Jean turned and retreated.

Ten minutes later, the door to the dark stone chamber opened. Four women, all covered in dark red robes, walked in from the door of the room.

Observing carefully, it is not difficult to find that their height, body shape, appearance, walking posture, and even the folds of their clothes are exactly the same.

The old patriarch had seen this woman before when he entered the "Temple of Fire" for the first time.

This is the archbishop installed by the Vulcan Cult in Paris - "Mirror Master" Mycroya.
