The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe-Chapter 449 - 390: Pope Order (Part 2)

After the words were spoken, Salman took the lead and flew forward.

The others, seeing this, said no more and quickly followed.

Meanwhile, the envoy team sent by Salman arrived at the temporary residence of the Bright Church Country.

As soon as they approached, the stationed personnel on the other side discovered them. After a brief exchange and identity verification, they were taken to meet Noel.

"Greetings, Lord Noel." Before long, this envoy team dispatched by Salman met with Noel, the temporary leader of the current Bright Church Country's delegation.

Noel glanced at the envoy team composed of Elves and slowly said, "Instead of seizing resources now, your Elf Kingdom sent such a team to our Bright Church Country for what purpose?"

Upon hearing Noel's inquiry, the leading Elf Envoy of the team from the Elf Kingdom slowly replied, "Lord Noel, we come with the sincerity of Lord Salman and the Elf King, to discuss an important cooperation matter with the Bright Church Country."

Hearing this from the leading Elf Envoy, Noel raised his eyebrows slightly, then asked with interest, "Oh, what kind of cooperation matter is it? Please, tell me more."

Seeing Noel's interest, the leading Elf Envoy detailed the plan that Salman had mentioned.

The leading Elf Envoy was well aware of the nature of the Bright Church Country and Noel.

Therefore, in his view, once the plan was proposed, the other side should eagerly report to the Pope Order for an immediate joint cooperation.

However, that was not how it went. After hearing his words, Noel frowned deeply.

Seeing Noel's expression, the leading Elf Envoy felt a bit uneasy. After a slight hesitation, he carefully asked, "Lord Noel, is there a problem?"

Hearing the question from the leading Elf Envoy, Noel's tightly furrowed brows eased slightly. He then waved his hand gently, "I personally have no issue, but there are some special reasons, so I must consult with the Pope Order and see their opinion."

Honestly, the plan proposed by these Elf Envoys sent by Salman made Noel very keen to cooperate because he saw huge benefits within it.

But, there is a significant problem, which is that it would allow the Undead Forces of the Chaotic Sea Domain to take a breather.

It's unlikely to be completely eradicated in the short term.

Currently, it seems that the mastermind behind the Undead Forces in this Chaotic Sea Domain is very likely to be the person whom the Bright Church Country despises.

The Pope Order has even decided to sacrifice part of the interests of the Bright Church Country to eliminate that person, indicating their stance on this matter.

Thus, what seemed like a straightforward decision is now becoming somewhat complicated.

Now, we must see what stance the Pope Order takes, whether eliminating the traitor is more important, or gaining greater benefits is more crucial?

If they believe getting rid of the traitor is more vital than the huge benefits, undoubtedly, the Pope Order will not cooperate with the Elf Kingdom.

However, if the Pope Order thinks the benefits of this plan outweigh the removal of the traitor, then both sides can naturally proceed with the cooperation smoothly.

And in all this, he certainly has no decision-making power.

Upon hearing Noel's words, the leading Elf Envoy politely nodded, "Of course, please report to the Pope Order promptly, as we are quite eager and still need to discuss with other top-level powers."

Hearing this, Noel hesitated slightly, then slowly asked, "Are we the first ones you approached?"

The leading Elf Envoy immediately understood Noel's meaning and lightly shook his head, then answered, "No, the Bright Church Country is our second target, our first was the Celestial Dragon Empire, and they have already agreed to our cooperative matter, and both sides are now engaging in deeper cooperation."

Hearing the words of the leading Elf Envoy, Noel breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the Bright Church Country wasn't the first to be convinced, and the Celestial Dragon Empire had already been persuaded, reporting this to the Pope Order would certainly put them under considerable pressure.

They must consider the impact of refusing cooperation. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Thus, he nodded to the leading Elf Envoy and said, "Alright, I understand. I will now contact the Pope Order and see what their opinion is."

After speaking, Noel immediately took out his Communication Magic Array Carrier to directly connect with the Pope Order, and activated it.

Soon, two phantoms appeared on the Communication Magic Array Carrier, representing the two most prestigious and powerful former Popes of the Pope Order.

Seeing the phantoms, Noel respectfully bowed and then conveyed the full details of the Elf Envoy's plan.

After explaining everything, Noel hesitantly asked, "What do the Popes think of this matter?"

After Noel spoke, the phantoms on the other side didn't immediately respond but hesitated for a while before slowly saying, "We need to discuss this carefully, and will give a reply in an hour."

With that, the communication on the Communication Magic Array Carrier was abruptly disconnected.

Noel turned his gaze to the Elf Envoy waiting beside him and slowly said, "As you saw, please wait here calmly for an hour, the Pope Order will give a reply then."

"Thank you, Lord Noel."

The leading Elf Envoy nodded gently to Noel and began to patiently await the reply from the Pope Order.

The Pope Order needed time to discuss, a fact Noel was already mentally prepared for. Earlier, he had deliberately mentioned the Celestial Dragon Empire during his report.

Without mentioning the Celestial Dragon Empire, it's likely the Pope Order wouldn't feel much psychological pressure, increasing the potential for rejecting the cooperation. But with the pressure from the Celestial Dragon Empire, the Pope Order would cautiously ponder, analyze the pros and cons in this matter, and discuss it thoroughly.

Honestly, Noel was quite curious about what decision the Pope Order would ultimately make.

He wasn't very knowledgeable about the former Popes in the Pope Order, as he mainly learned about them through rumors and historical records.

At this time, in the Bright Church Country, inside a secret chamber.

Two elders sat at a round table, their expressions somewhat grim, furrowing their brows.

One elder slowly spoke, "Regardless, let's first gather the other members of the Pope Order and discuss this matter diligently."

Hearing this suggestion, the elder beside him lightly nodded, agreeing with the sentiment.
