Chapter 118: Luther's Mission
"Hehe, since history has chosen you, then I will choose you." Eugen looked through the list of the priests and showed a meaningful smile on his face.
Eugen sat in his office in the castle of Thunder, thinking about how to fuel the fire so that Father Martin Luther could complete his historical mission and promote the occurrence of the Reformation.
At this moment, a noise suddenly came from outside the door, and it sounded like someone was about to break into the room.
When his thoughts were interrupted, Ougen frowned and said unhappily: "What's going on outside? Why are you so noisy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice wearing a priest's robe suddenly pushed open the door and rushed in stumbled in. There were two guards behind him, and the guards had a hint of panic on their faces.
"I'm sorry, sir. The priest insisted on seeing you, or that it was your friend. We couldn't stop him and let him rush in." The guard explained two sentences, then quickly stepped forward to pull the rash priest out.
However, Eugen looked at the priest with great interest, thinking that it would not be such a coincidence.
The priest quickly raised his head and said, "It's me, Earl Eugen, I'm Father Martin Luther. Don't you remember me? We've seen it in Fort Cassel."
The young face and bright but cunning eyes were Father Martin Luther.
Eugen was very happy. This really means that Cao Cao was here. Before he could figure out how to contact Martin Luther, he ran over by himself.
Seeing that the priest seemed to know Eugen, the guards stopped and turned to Eugen with a puzzled expression.
Eugen waved his hand and said, "Yes, he does know me, you guys step down first."
The two guards agreed respectfully, then turned around and walked out of the room.
Father Martin Luther breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the guards leaving, and turned his head to look at Eugen with a flattering smile.
Eugen was thinking about how to plot against him, but now he was staring at him and started to sweat. He hurriedly said, "Hey, Father Martin, why did you come to Lei City? You seem to be a little embarrassed."
Before seeing Eugen, the priest was still a little nervous, not knowing what attitude Eugen would treat him. Now seeing Eugen is still so approachable and not much like before, he said carelessly: "Hey, don't mention it. After you parted from Cassel that day, I accidentally offended a big man in the local parish and didn't dare to stay any longer, so I came here."
"Oh?" Eugen was delighted when he heard this. All he wanted was that Martin Luther could not survive in the church. Only in this way could he lead him to hate the current church system and make him regard changing the church as his life goal.
After thinking about it, Eugen continued to ask, "Then how did you find me? Is there anything wrong with me?"
Martin Luther was originally indignant, but when he heard Eugen's question, he immediately changed his appearance and said with a slight smile: "That's right. On the way, I heard that a disaster had occurred in this place, so I thought of coming here to sell a few indulgences to earn some travel expenses. However, after I came, your guards did not let me in at all. At the same time, I heard that you are the commander here now, so I thought about coming to ask you for convenience."
Martin Luther said, and looked at Eugen with a begging gaze, and then said, "As long as you help me, I can give you a few indulgences for free. You know, these are all good things, and it can make..."
"I'm not interested in these!" Eugen interrupted impatiently without waiting for Martin Luther to finish his speech, his tone was very stiff.
Martin Luther was stunned when he heard this, and felt Eugen a little angry. He immediately said in panic: Sorry, Lord Eugen, I apologize for my offense. Please forgive me, I will leave now."
He is actually very afraid of Eugen now. After all, Eugen can be said to be extremely powerful in this land of Italy, and no one dares to offend him directly.
"No, no, Father Luther, you misunderstood what I mean." Eugen suddenly turned angry and laughed, and continued, "You did not offend me. I mean I am not interested in indulgences, but I am very interested in you."
Father Martin Luther turned his body stiffly when he heard this, staring at Eugen in a daze, and said in horror: "I? Earl Eugen, don't you have Princess Maria?"
Eugen was stunned when he heard this. After a moment of reflexion, he immediately said with anger: "Damn, who do you think of me? I mean I have something to ask you to help me, not to be interested in you, you stupid."
After being scolded by Eugen, Martin Luther became happy and turned to Eugen excitedly and asked, "That's good, Lord Eugen, please give your instructions. As long as you say it, I will do everything for you."
Full-time priests are generally quite serious, and can even be said to be a bit old-fashioned, but Martin Luther's thinking is quite leaps and meets Eugen's requirements.
"Ahem, okay, you stay here first. I want you to contact the other priests here to find out about their situation. Especially you need to pay attention to which priests are buying and selling indulgences." Eugen said in a deep voice. When doing serious things, he hoped that Martin Luther would be more serious.
Unexpectedly, Martin Luther looked solemn and refused Eugen's order.
"I'm sorry, Lord Eugen. I can do things for you, but you can't let me betray my Lord. If you want me to be a despicable whistleblower, then I will not be able to obey!" Martin Luther spoke righteously, standing straight, and looking more majestic.
Eugen didn't expect to get such an answer, and was surprised and couldn't help but look at Martin Luther more. This Martin Luther may have a strange personality, but is not stupid, especially because he is still a Christian and is particularly sensitive to the word "betrayal".
"No, I think you misunderstood, Father Luther. I don't want you to betray anyone. I just think your behavior of buying and selling indulgences is very meaningful, so I want to ask you to investigate the specific situation, and then write it down and write it into a book."
Eugen said calmly, he was clearly lying, but there was no unnatural expression on his face. Instead, it seemed that he was originally kind-hearted, but was misunderstood by Martin Luther.
When Martin Luther heard Eugen's explanation, he suddenly realized and said, "Oh, so that's the case. Sorry, Lord Eugen, I was wrong. Since you have good intentions, I will definitely do it according to your arrangement."
Eugen nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then you go first. Tell me if you need it."
