Chapter 318 (1/2)

The co officer of West Hill City’s Public Security Force was having a terrible headache right now

Today, soe happened in the city A crowd surrounded the God’s church in West Hill City and rioted The rioters were es and towns neighboring West Hill The angry mob, clad in clothes made of coarse cloth, surrounded the church and so out loud for justice

The whole of Westwood Province was the fief of the Tulip family, and West Hill was the capital of Westwood Province Being the co officer here, he surely would have so

Once the coot the news, he immediately rushed to the scene with a tea of the ordinary

First of all, the actions of the civilians see anything violent, just shouting and cursing but did not actually launch an attack Most of them sat there in silent demonstration, while so West Hill citizens about how the religion of God cheated them

When the co the church, he immediately came here with heavily ars were not as bad as he iined It was just that the roads around the church were congested, but the church reoing to break into the church The church’s tightly closed doors were not untouched, and not even a single piece of glass on the as daed

It seemed like the main purpose of these rioters was not to wreck the church, butjust to create an impact!

In the face of the soldiers who rushed to the scene, these people auto officer sternly requested theers reo forth and tackle these villagers

Right now, Miss Nicole was in West Hill! And Marquis Rody was also here If there were any bloodshed at this tiet into trouble would be him!

The use of force would only be a deterrent and not a solution! This was the first thought that popped into the co officer’s mind

However, the wrath of the church bishop would not be easily quelled

As West Hill was the capital of Westwood and Westwood Province the fief of the Tulip fa to the Empire’s laell as out of respect for the Duke of the Tulip Family, the Empire’s army was not stationed here Hence, the church did not have Flaroup stationed here too! There were only security forces loyal to the Tulip Family in the whole Westwood Province

Hence, when confronted with these disgruntled villagers surrounding the church, the Bishop had no way of driving them off The bishop did not naively think he could influence the angry h he was a powerfulsickles and hunting forks—it was i officer ordered his ht a few confidants inside tooutside There is no need to worry that the croill break in for thethis?” The coether

”Hoould I know?!” The bishop’s face was pale due to anger, ”I request that you, the co officer of the security forces in West Hill, order your men to disperse the mob outside! And arrest their leader!”

”I’ officer smiled wryly ”I do not have the authority to do so You are fah those people outside surrounded the church, they have not done anything which violates the Empire’s law as they have not launched any actual attack on the church—if they do so, my men will iht now they are only surrounding the church, yelling and shouting You know very well that standing on the streets shouting and yelling, though such behavior causes you displeasure, the Empire’s law did not specify what criry that his voice tre to evade your duties! Those people outside daringly besiege the church, this is blaspheion! Disrespect to the Gods! According to the code of God’s religion”

”If so, Your E to the codeWe are soldiers under the direct control of the Tulip Fa Warriors troops of God’s Church!” The look on the co officer’s face became somewhat hostile He did not want to work for the bishop, especially when his future was concerned

”bastard! If our Fla Warriors are here, will I still tolerate theHe snarled and said, ”If it is reported to your superior that such a thing has happened under your rule, I’et aith this! After all, besieging the church is a seriousofficer sighed ”I’ll go out and negotiate with them, but if they do not attack the church first, my men will not resort to military actions After all, they are the subjects of the Tulip Family’s fief; I cannot intensify the conflict!”

The cootiate with the villagers, but it was obvious that they were given guidance by somebody secretly They refused to pay attention to the conored him as they only had one deive an explanation!

The cos were not that simple, so he dispatched his men to ask for instructions from Marquis Rody—since the Duke of the Tulip Family was far away at the Imperial Capital, naturally the supreiment Commander, whom at the same time was the brother-in-law of the Duke

When Rody received the news, he immediately rode over The soldiers led the way for him and the crowd instantly parted to let hied villagers He strode up the steps in front of the church and bellowed, ”Quiet!”

He used his fighting energy and his body e energy, his voice rang throughout the place The crowd soon quieted down and their gaze fell on Rody

”I’iment Commander of the Empire’s Northern Arathered here creating disturbances! I now order that you send a representative to speak to me, and tell me your demands If not, I will order my soldiers to dispel all of you!”

Rody’s authoritative gaze swept across the crowd

The crowd cal the villagers His hair was grizzled and his face had the ie, but the pair of eyes looked somewhat sly

He bowed and said in a loud voice, ”Marquis Rody, we are fro here are all loyal subjects of the Tulip Faize for our impulsive actions today, but please believe us We did not intend to offend thein front of you are a group of angry people conned by filthy psychics, and all they want is justice!”

At this moment, the doors of the church behind Rody opened The bishop had seen Rody coh of relief, came out from the church and stood beside Rody

As soon as he ca the crowd The people who had calain

”Quiet!” Rody yelled He turned to look at the bishop standing behind him, ”You must be the bishop of West Hill”

”Yes, Marquis Rody Thank you for co, please order your brave soldiers to disperse this e

”No way,” Rody siazed coldly at the bishop and said in a low voice, ”you’ve seen for yourself There are thousands of them I do not want my soldiers to cause any bloodshed here”

The bishop’s face changed He could lash out his anger at a co officer, but with his status, when confronted with Rody who held powerful a post as the Enored hiht, now that the bishop and I are here, tell ain, the old inally devout believers of the God’s religion and the Supreh the old ed to ive a detailed account of what happened
