The Holy Church was located on Mount Hyjal, which was the holy land of the Holy Church. It stretched for more than a hundred miles, and at the foot of Mount Hyjal, which was the location of the Holy Capital of the Holy Church.

Every day, an endless stream of worshippers came to pay their respects. However, their activities were limited to the mountain peaks of Mount Hyjal. They knelt far away towards the peaks and chanted the Holy Orison. This was a scene that could be seen once a day in the morning.

If they were not allowed to go up the mountain, then they absolutely could not go up the mountain. Because the mountain was the residence of the big figures of the Holy Church, except for the families and guards of those big figures, no one could enter Mount Hyjal without permission.

The peak of Mount Hyjal was not very high, but it took up a great deal of space. The peak was covered with snow all year round, and even in the hottest of summers, it was freezing cold.

The highest ruler of the Holy Church was the Pope. As the spokesperson of the God of Light on earth, he had the highest authority in name.

However, this was only in name. In reality, his authority was also restricted by the Elders Guild.

The Elders Guild was the core force of the Holy Church. In addition to the Pope, there were a total of eight elders. They had a great amount of power within the scope of their work. Sometimes even the Pope couldn't interfere.

The Divine Codex allowed for the removal of the Pope under the joint opposition of six elders.

The nine divine halls were located on top of the nine mountain peaks of Mount Hyjal. Each mountain peak had a shrine, and each hall had a hall master. The shrine was where the elders lived and handled their daily duties. The names of the nine halls and their respective supreme rulers were:

The Temple of the Goddess — the spokesperson of the God of Light on earth, the home of the current Holy Pope, Entus, on the summit of the Godhead.

Hall of Judgement. The head of the Hall, Bright Great Judge Nod, has the power to interpret the Holy Codex. He is also the most powerful elder on the summit of Judgement.

In the Hall of Judgment, the head of the Hall of Light, Judge Ivan, is a member of the Council of Elders. He has the power to judge heretics, and once they are judged, they can never be changed.

In the Hall of Honor, the head of the Holy Knights Guild, Boulder, was a member of the Elders Guild. He was in charge of the core force of the Holy Church — the Holy Knights Guild.

The Hall of Order. The head of the Hall of Light, Senator Olive, a member of the Council of Patriarchs. Capture and execute the criminals convicted by the Hall of Judgment. He will be the commander of the law enforcement agencies of various places, the Peak of Order.

The Hall of Redemption. It's leader, Priest Imena. She is a member of the Elders Guild. She is in charge of all Priests in the Holy Church.

In the Hall of Saints, the Commander of the Lord's Pious Army, Wharton, was a member of the Elders Guild. He was in charge of the Holy Crusaders, located on the peak of the Pious Mountain.

In the Guardian Hall, the Lord Guard Commander Herring was a member of the Council of Elders. He was in charge of the Holy Guards of the churches everywhere, as well as all the guardians of Holy Capital and Mount Hyjal.

A member of the Council of Patriarchs. He was a priest and priest of the Holy Church in various churches. He had the greatest power, but his status was the lowest among the halls. He was the Peak of Faith.

The hall masters of the nine halls were all at the Saint-level or higher. The Holy Church had become one of the most powerful churches on the continent, possessing nine Saint-level experts.

In addition, there were two other halls within the pope's palace, the Hall of Holy Children and the Hall of Holy Maiden.

The selection of the Holy Son and the Holy Maiden was a major event for the Holy Church every year, because the Holy Son and the Holy Maiden were the Pope's successors. After repeated selection, they eventually became the Holy Son and the Holy Maiden.

The Holy Son and the Holy Maiden were chosen from among the boys and girls sent over by the Holy Empire and its subordinate states, requiring talent in the light element. Before becoming the Holy Emperor, one had to maintain their virginity, regardless of whether they were a boy or girl. In contrast to the Hall of Faith, the Hall of the Holy Son and the Holy Maiden had the least power, but their status was extremely high, only second to the Holy Emperor.

Holy Church. The Elders Guild.

In a magnificent hall, a corpse was suddenly placed there. On the body of the corpse was a white flag that looked like it belonged to a holy red cross. More than ten people were sitting in their seats with solemn expressions on their faces.

On the ground was the corpse of the Holy Son Guderian. A few days after his disappearance, the more Aryan thought about it, the worse the situation would be. He personally led the team into the Dark Forest, but unexpectedly, they found the corpses of Guderian and the others.

It was a snowy day, and the body was in good condition, and the Son Guderian was still in the same position as he had been when he died.

Guderian had once been a Holy Son, and his status and position deserved the honor of wearing a holy flag.

Next to him stood the Aryan priest, who had transported Guderian's body to Mount Hyjal, sealed in ice and snow. At his level he was not entitled to attend such a meeting, but since he was a witness to everything at the time, the pope made an exception.

"It really is a Necromancer!" An old man around forty to fifty years old carefully examined Guderian's body for a long time before sighing and saying.

His strength had already reached the high rank of Saint realm expert, just a step away from the peak. As a Saint realm expert, according to the division of power among Saint Knights, he had already reached the level of a Holy Knight. Even though he looked middle-aged, in reality, he was already over a hundred years old.

After becoming a Saint realm expert, their lifespan would be greatly extended and they would be able to remain young forever, and Ivanov was no exception. Of course, being young forever didn't mean they wouldn't die, it was just that their appearance and bodies could remain relatively young.

"Judge Ivan, how can you be so sure?" He was dressed in a white robe, with a golden crown on his head, and in his hand was the sacred staff of power. He was Ernst, the Pope, a man who was even more powerful than the Emperor.

In a country under the influence of the Holy Church, as long as they didn't have his permission and were not blessed by the Staff of Holy Light, even the emperor of the Holy Empire couldn't ascend to the throne, then it was evident how great the influence of the Holy Church was.

Ivanov nodded. Everyone knew that Judge Ivanov liked to be called Ivan, so people who knew him automatically omitted the last two words.

"From Guderian's wounds, I can tell that it was a Necromancer who killed him. The external wounds on his shoulders were like the wounds caused by spears. I clearly remember that the Necromancers described in the secret library in the Holy See had similar weapons. They were called 'Bone Lances' …."

Ivanov explained slowly, and everyone listened attentively. No one questioned him, as everyone knew that Judge Ivan, the presiding judge of the Hall of Judgment, was a man who read a wide variety of books.

"Your Majesty!" Ivanov bowed deeply, "Please forgive my words, but if I am not wrong, this time we are not going to meet ordinary Necromancers, who we are familiar with. It is very possible that they are the legendary — Ancient Necromancers!"

"Ancient Necromancer?"

"It can't be? Ancient Necromancer? Isn't this the legendary occupation? "

"It is said that the ancient Necromancers have powerful fighting strength, is this true?"

"It should be. Otherwise, how could Guderian have been killed?"

"It could also have been done by someone else …"

As soon as Ivanov finished his words, the various hall masters started whispering among themselves. Most of them had a trace of suspicion in their eyes.

"Quiet!" As the discussion continued to grow louder and louder, the voice of the Holy Emperor, Ernst, suddenly rang out. He waved his hand, and the voices of the people in the hall quickly quieted. The power of the Holy Emperor was still quite useful.

Then Ernst glanced at Aryan and said, "Aryan, tell me what you've found out, what you know, and what you've heard and heard!"

"Yes, Your Holiness!" Aryan was excited, he forced himself to pull himself together and began his long narration.

His voice echoed in the hall, and the crowd in the hall listened attentively. No matter how slowly Aryan spoke, there was not the slightest trace of impatience.

"As expected of a heretic!"

When everyone had finished listening to Aryan's story, an old man stood up and said, "This old man looks like a scoundrel, the noble and sacred bishop robe looks extremely uncomfortable on him, he is the hall master of the Hall of Faith, Dogkit." He then said, "Your Holiness, please allow me to bring these heretics who have committed sacrilege to hell!"

A beautiful woman who looked like a young married woman frowned, "Duojit, I don't think we should be so arbitrary. I've never heard of Necromancers who would be able to see them with their own eyes, and they all heard, heard or suspected them. Just based on these things, we can judge a person to be a heretic, isn't that a little too reckless?"

The one who spoke was the Priestess of the Temple of Redemption, Imena. She was a more genuine person.

"Ugh!" Father Aryan was left speechless by Imena's question.

"From then on, Aryan never saw with his own eyes that young man called Ron use necromancy! I have never even seen Ron in person in his account, Your Majesty, and I have always found it inappropriate to be so hasty! " Imena said the first few words to Aryan, and the last one to His Majesty.

"Imena!" "What about Guderian's death?"

"There is no evidence that Guderian's death is related to that Ron, not even to the Necromancers …" She was a man of principle. In her view, there could be no conviction without evidence.

"You …" Dockett was so angry that his face turned red and he could not say a word. To him, Imena's insistence on principles was like carrying a load with him.

Both of them glanced at His Holiness, waiting for his decision.

"This..." Pope Ernst was also in a difficult position. He trusted Aryan's words, but Imena was right. It was unfair to classify a person as heresy without evidence. The Holy See, who had always boasted of being impartial, had no reason to do such a thing.

Right at that moment, a soldier from the Temple Knight Regiment hurried over and whispered a few words into the ear of the Pope Ernst. The Pope's face changed drastically when he heard this.

He waved his hand for the soldier to withdraw, then looked at the crowd in the main hall and slowly said, "Just now, Holy Empire sent news that the heir to the Salter family died. He waved his hand for the soldier to withdraw, then looked at the crowd in the main hall and said," Just now, Holy Empire sent news that the heir to the Salter family died.
