Chapter 415 Do you dare to try it

While "Father" Brendan was still thinking about countermeasures, a group of people had already walked in at the door of the Generosity Church. The leader was a young man in a black hat with a silver cane in his hand, followed by seven or eight men and women, and a A big, ordinary cow.

Such a lineup was really strange. Not only were the many believers present surprised and curious, but even the black monks under Brendan looked shocked.

"Are you...are you also a believer who comes to worship at Generous Church?"

A middle-aged man near the door asked hesitantly.

Chen Lun smiled at him and said gently:

"Of course, you can say that."

Immediately, he took steps forward and led his men forward.

When the believers in front saw this, they couldn't help but get out of the way and looked at this group of strangers who suddenly came in with confusion.

I saw the black-clothed priest standing on the bulletin board suddenly changed his expression. He walked down the platform quickly and respectfully and slightly flatteringly. He came to the leader of the young man in black hat and made a very standard prayer. He bowed his head and said hello:

"Gold Cup Councilor Brendan, I have met Lord Consul Jack Spate!"

The faces of the believers showed shock.

Father Brendan is so respectful to this young man and calls him Lord Archon... Could it be that he is a high-ranking member of the Generous Council, a clergyman closer to the "God of Contract"?

"Lord Archon Jack."

In order to express their respect for the God of Contract and their devout faith, nearly a hundred believers in the lobby followed Brendan's example in saying hello to Chen Lun.

Chen Lun smiled, nodded to everyone, and said slowly:

"You can just call me Father Jack. From now on, I will be in charge of our Lord's church, preach to every believer, and preach our Lord's teachings "Justice Document"."

"What about Father Brendan...?"

asked the fat, wealthy businessman from before.

The rest of the believers are also somewhat concerned about this issue. After all, the Council of Generosity is the new Orthodox Church. They first came into contact with Father Brendan, and they became more familiar with him.

"Ah...I will be transferred to churches in other areas. Thank you for your concern."

Brendan glanced at Chen Lun's face and found that the other person was still smiling, so he took the initiative to explain.

"The Royal City Church is located at the heart of the empire, and its importance is self-evident. Of course, it needs more advanced and outstanding clergy from our religion...compared to me, Lord Jack is the most suitable person. Please rest assured, Lord Jack will definitely serve everyone Believers solve their problems.”

"So that's it..."

The believers nodded. Although they were a little reluctant to give up, they still chose to accept it.

Although the black-hatted gentleman in front of him looks too young, his status is higher than Father Brendan's after all. I believe that any business problems or confusion about doctrine that he encounters in the future can be solved by him.

At this time, Chen Lun seemed to have suddenly discovered something new. He looked surprised and pointed at the large golden wine glass on the wooden stand beside him and asked:

"What is this?"

"Um..."

Brendan's expression tightened, panic flashing in his eyes.

The believers are a little confused, how come Father Jack in front of them doesn't even know the "Holy Water of Atonement", which is obviously a gift from the gods of the Generous Council...

In the crowd, a tall and thin businessman stepped forward, said a prayer and answered:

"This is the 'holy water of atonement' given to everyone by Father Brendan, which can wash away the mistakes we have made and gain forgiveness from the 'God of Contract'."

Brendan's expression became even more nervous. He was about to open his mouth to explain, but Chen Lun raised his hand first and stopped him.

"It turns out to be the 'Holy Water of Atonement'."

Chen Lun pretended to be surprised.

He glanced at Brendan calmly and sneered secretly.

In fact, before he even came in, he split his fingers into small white snakes and sneaked into the church, spying on everything. So Chen Lun knew very well that this guy was just using the name of the King of Slaughter, cheating and amassing money wantonly.

His Majesty Conrad may not cast his gaze over such a trivial matter, or even if he knew about it, he would not pay attention to it.

But Chen Lun couldn't let this happen under his eyes. After all, this royal church was now under his jurisdiction... If this matter was exposed, it would not only damage the prestige of the Generous Council, but also make it worse. The other consuls of the Senate and even the Speaker looked down upon him.

At the beginning of the new Parliament of Generosity, everything should be done with caution.

Otherwise, the reputation gained in the bloody battle will most likely be ruined by trivial matters.

Although Chen Lun is not a loyal believer of the King of Slaughter, he is still beholden to him and holds a high-level position in the parliament. He should protect the face of the parliament both emotionally and rationally.

His smile gradually disappeared and was replaced by a serious and indifferent expression.

Brendan's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself, "Oh no."

However, Chen Lun said in a slightly reproachful tone:

"When the Generosity Church was first built, many believers in our Lord came here because of its name. We should love them as we love our relatives... How can you fool everyone with this ordinary 'Atonement Holy Water'? Father Brendan?"< br>


"Ordinary...'Holy Water of Atonement'?"

Brendan looked stunned.

He originally thought that Archon Jack would expose his scam in public and then scold or blame him, but he did not expect that the other party would not do this at all.

"Father Jack, you mean...are there any other 'Holy Waters of Atonement'?"

The believers looked at each other, and the fat and wealthy businessman hesitated to speak.

After they saw Father Brendan's surprised expression, they were a little confused and could not confirm the authenticity of the matter.

"Of course."

Chen Lun nodded calmly.

He gently raised his hand, picked up the small cup on the table, poured it into the golden wine glass, and then drank the "Holy Water of Atonement".

I thought to myself, what a scam, this is tap water, it hasn't even been boiled yet... Brendan is such a mouthful, isn't it a joke that people drink holy water and get upset? Even if you’re cheating me out of money, I still need to take care of people’s health!

"This is indeed an ordinary 'Holy Water of Atonement'."

Chen Lun lowered his eyes and said softly.

"But our religion also has a more advanced and sacred 'Holy Atonement Water', which is a divine gift that only the lucky ones who have received the favor of our Lord can enjoy it... It can not only wash away past sins, but also heal Disease, recovery of injuries, and even delaying the aging of lifespan and appearance.”

The "holy water" he was talking about was the "Fountain of Youth" previously discovered in Coleridge Forest. There were several large barrels in the Blood Poetry Ring.

This thing has little effect on extraordinary people, but it is very attractive to ordinary people.

Especially rich and powerful upper-class people.

These believers in front of you are a good audience.

Of course Chen Lun would not expose Brendan's despicable behavior in public, because this would be a disguised admission that the priest of the Generous Council was cheating to make money, which was not conducive to maintaining his prestige.

He planned to take this opportunity to make amends, turn the original scam into reality, achieve the purpose of promoting the reputation of the generous parliament, and turn a bad thing into a good thing.

As for Brendan, let’s settle things with him slowly after the matter is over.

"Is there really such holy water? Father Jack?"

Sitting next to the fat wealthy businessman was an old man dressed in luxurious clothes. His eyes lit up, and after he stood up tremblingly, he asked with great anticipation.

In addition to him, there are many believers who also show desire and expectation.

Ladies yearn for eternal youth, old men yearn for extended lifespan, and patients yearn for good health... The holy water mentioned by Chen Lun just hits the deepest desires in their hearts.

"I was appointed to be transferred to the Royal City Church, and I happened to be given a little of this holy water."

Chen Lun nodded and admitted, then took out a fist-sized golden cup from his arms, which contained half a cup of clear and transparent water, not much, only about four or five mouthfuls.

Everyone turned their fiery eyes to the golden cup in his hand.

Even Brendan and his men on the side couldn't help but be stunned.

Did Archon Jack really come up with something like this?

I have never heard of the Generous Council having such "holy water of atonement"...

Chen Lun snapped his fingers.

Snap!

The large golden cup belonging to Brendan slowly floated up on the table. Immediately, a wisp of orange-red extraordinary flame climbed up the cup. In a few breaths, the "holy water of atonement" inside began to boil.

The believers exclaimed repeatedly.

Looking at Father Jack's calm face, I felt that his tall figure had become taller. However, Chen Lun just wanted to boil the cup of tap water to prevent these believers from getting upset.

Immediately, Chen Lun poured the "Fountain of Youth" in his hand into a large golden cup.

"All believers present can drink a small cup for free."

He spoke slowly.

The crowd immediately became excited.

"Father Jack, you are so generous!"

"This is your personal gift, and you actually shared it with us..."

"Praise the contract, thank you for your gift!"

Chen Lun turned his head and asked Brendan with a smile to arrange people to scoop out the holy water in the cup and distribute it to every believer.

The latter was stunned for a moment, then quickly agreed.

"Okay... okay, Master Jack."

With the help of the monks in black, nearly a hundred people present took a sip of Chen Lun's "Holy Atonement Water", but their reactions were also quite violent.

The fat, wealthy businessman let out a deep breath on the spot, with a rosy face and an excited expression:

"It's... wonderful. I have never felt so energetic in my body. The cold I had two days ago is suddenly gone. It's amazing!"

"Sure enough, it is a divine thing given by the great 'God of Contract'. The joint pain I had for decades has disappeared! Can I really live for two more years? Thank you, Father Jack, thank you so much ”

After the old man drank the water, he stood up straight and burst into tears when he talked about the emotional part.

The believers were overjoyed.

Brendan on the side finally realized that Mr. Jack had probably brought out some extraordinary thing to serve as the so-called "holy water", but this made him feel a little regretful.

Such a good thing is really wasted when used on these ordinary people.

Today's service has ended. After expressing their gratitude, the believers expressed that they would come to the church to pray every day. Chen Lun smiled and nodded slightly, watching them leave one after another.

After the room in Fengyun Church was quiet, Brendan lowered his eyebrows and said:

"Sir Jack, I received the news that you would be coming to the Royal City branch a month ago. I didn't expect that you would only come today. Please forgive me for the delay in welcoming you."

Chen Lun just glanced at him lightly and said nothing.

Brendan's heart was pounding and he felt like something was wrong.

"Lord Jack...I didn't deceive those people. It's just that the parliament was newly built. Those wealthy businessmen have more or less used tricks in the business world, otherwise they wouldn't have accumulated so much wealth...using the 'Holy Water of Atonement' to make They feel better and can increase their support for the parliament. Moreover, I did not intentionally defraud the money, it was all donated voluntarily.”

He explained quickly.

Bang!

The door of the Generous Church was suddenly closed, and the light suddenly dimmed.

Brendan was startled and immediately looked towards the door, only to see one of Lord Jack's male subordinates in suits and ties closing the door.

"How much money did you accumulate using this method before I came here?"

Chen Lun said indifferently.

"Forty...more than fifty thousand gold pounds."

Brendan swallowed and said nervously.

He immediately explained hurriedly:

"But I did not misuse the money, nor did I keep it for myself. Instead, I invested it in the renovation and construction of the church district, as well as in my personal relationships with members of the royal family... These are all contributions to the parliament!"


"You are very good at putting gold on your face."

Chen Lun nodded.

He didn't want to listen to this person's sophistry anymore, so he directly used "Thought Stealing" on him.

[You perform "Thought Stealing" on the target Brendan! 】

【Will determination...】

[The target’s will is 39 points, yours is 82 points, the judgment is successful! 】

Brendan showed a look of shock on the spot. As a Sequence Five Transcendent, he clearly felt an unrivaled power that forcibly invaded his mind and peeked into his own secrets.

"You...?!"

Brendan opened his mouth slightly.

Chen Lun looked at him with an even colder look.

Because the truth is that this guy not only made nearly one hundred thousand gold pounds, but also secretly deposited it into his personal Imperial Bank account. As for the construction of the church area, the headquarters actually allocated 45,000 gold pounds as funds, and Brendan embezzled most of it, only spending 5,000 gold pounds to renovate the church area.

No wonder the construction period has been delayed for so long and has not been completed. This guy is the one behind it!

And there is naturally a reason why he is so unscrupulous...

"Catch the cancer and moth in this parliament, and I will escort him to the main hall of the headquarters for collective trial... Let every member see what kind of person this Jinbei member is."

Chen Lun said coldly.

Floy behind him took a step forward, with a pretty face like frost. He raised his hand and summoned a huge black scythe from the ground. Then he let out a wolf howl, and the companion guardian of [Ghost Oath] "Ghost Wolf" also Emerged from beside her.

"Lord Jack!"

Brendan backed away and said in panic.

"According to the teachings of the Generosity Bible, I...I did not betray the parliament, you can't do this!"

"According to the "Generosity Bible", the power of the Senate Consul, except for the Speaker, is supreme. I can kill you on the spot without reporting it..."

Chen Lun looked at him calmly.

"Do you believe I would do this?"

Brendan was really scared and he was covered in sweat.

The black-clothed monks under his command did not dare to act rashly, and even those who were frightened directly knelt down and lowered their heads.

"I am the Gold Cup Councilor under Governor Houston! Lord Jack! Don't... don't do this, I apologize to you, and you will share 90% of the gold pound in my hand!"

Chen Lun's eyes were indifferent from the beginning to the end, and the other party's words did not have the slightest impact on him.

He just waved his hand, and Floy rushed towards him, followed closely by the giant deep wolf, baring its teeth.

Brendan didn't want to surrender and was planning to use his sequence ability to resist.

But at this moment, I heard Archon Jack’s light words:

"If you dare to take action, I will kill you now."

Brendan suddenly felt an extreme chill descending on him, as if a terrifying beast was staring at him with its murderous eyes, as if if he dared to act rashly, it would kill him in the next second.

Archon Jack can sit in a high position as a Sequence Five, which is his reputation.

Terrence, Rafa and the saints of the Rotef family... which of these big figures' incarnations was not chopped down by Jack?

Brendan immediately let out a sigh of relief, and with a plop, he knelt on the ground dejectedly and allowed Floy to restrain him. But he still had hope in his heart, hoping that Governor Houston would stand up for him...

However, Chen Lun seemed to have seen through his mind and sneered.

"The rest of the people are also being imprisoned. Floy, write a letter for me and have the faceless waiter send it to the headquarters. I want to see what Houston has to say!"

"Yes."

Floy obeyed.

Chen Lun's eyes were deep, thinking that by making up for this guy's scam today, he should be able to spread his reputation through those believers and attract more people to come here.

By then, he will be able to gain a better foothold in this royal city.

His goal is actually very simple, that is, to allow the Generous Council to have the same status and reputation as other Orthodox Churches, so that it can live up to Speaker Azgierro's trust.

I went to the hospital, there is only one chapter today
