After two days on the road, Leo finally arrived at the Holy See in the early morning of the third day. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

As with what happened in Ridmar a few days ago, Leo was once again shocked by what he saw.

It was a very solemn and solemn city, located on the Iberian Plain in the middle of the empire, and its walls were twenty meters high, and they were made of countless huge cyan boulders, which turned black after a long time, but only added a little weight to the mountain-like walls.

After passing through the city gates, a solemn aura came to his face, and a huge road wide enough to accommodate at least ten carriages at the same time appeared in front of Leo, although the road was not small in terms of vehicles and people, but it maintained a fairly quiet atmosphere, and even many devout believers could be seen lying on the ground with every step, carrying out their own penance rituals.

Numerous large white columns, at least three to four meters in diameter, line the road in pairs, and it looks like it would take at least a few adults to hug them. The height of the columns is more than ten meters, far more than the buildings on both sides of the street, and almost at the same level as the city wall that Leo has just passed. The very tops of the two columns are connected to each other by curved vaults, thus forming a circular giant arch. These huge arches stretched every few hundred meters, one after the other, to the farthest point of sight, and the people walking under these arches were so small that they were nothing compared to the arches themselves, giving Leo the illusion that he was in the land of giants.

In addition to these formidable giant arches, the road is lined with a variety of buildings, high and low, large and small, but both in color and style are the same as these giant arches, pure white appearance, simple and sharp lines, solemnity and solemnity.

"Triumphal Boulevard." Leo took a deep breath, and finally suppressed the incomparable shock in his heart. Legend has it that the first Pope, His Majesty Sanny, after killing the head of the dark cult at the time, carried the head of the dark lord into the city from here, and received cheers from the devout believers along this avenue until he entered the Shining Light Palace, the center of the Holy See.

This is how the Avenue of Triumph gets its name. To commemorate this great victory, the giant arch was later erected at the site of Pope Sanni's entry into the city, and it was named the "Arc de Triomphe". Since then, whenever the Holy See has killed a notorious foe or achieved an unprecedented victory, a triumphal arch has been erected on this triumphal avenue. According to what Bishop Gavin told Leo, three hundred years later, there are now one hundred and twelve Arc de Triomphe that now stands on the Strip of Triumph!

Since it was forbidden to gallop horses in the Holy See, it took Leo and the others an hour to pass through all the 112 triumphal arches along the Triumphal Boulevard. As they continued to go deeper, the buildings and people on both sides became more and more scarce, and more and more Papal Guardian Knights patrolled by in full armor, and when the majestic Shining Lite Palace was already close at hand, Leo and his party were finally stopped by a team of Guardian Knights.

"Young bishop of the region, please make your intentions clear." The leader of this ten-man knight squad was a knight of about thirty years old, his body was as straight as a eucalyptus tree on his horse, and his eyes looked directly into Leo's eyes like a sharp sword blade out of the sheath, which made Leo have the illusion of being stung. Judging from the expression on the face of this guardian knight captain, if it weren't for the blue bishop uniform that Leo was wearing today, he might have been ruthlessly driven out as an intruder.

Leo coughed and was about to speak, but Bishop Gavin's voice came from the carriage: "Derek, it's me." ”

"Lord Gavin?" Obviously, this squad leader named Derek was no stranger to Bishop Gavin's voice, and when he heard this, his face changed slightly, and he raised his hand to signal to the subordinates who stretched out his hand, and then flashed to the side with this group of knights.

"Let's go." Leo made a gesture at Morata, the coachman who was driving Bishop Gavin's carriage, and slowly passed in front of Derek and the others. It is worth mentioning that Leo found that Derek and his party did not just wait there stupidly after dodging away, but lined up in two very neat rows, and bowed on their horses until Bishop Gavin's carriage passed in front of them, and then straightened up to carry out the original patrol mission.

Just as Leo's gaze was about to withdraw from the guardian knights, the squad leader named Derek suddenly raised his head and looked at Leo deeply.

"Haven't you ever seen a handsome guy? Really. Leo, on horseback, couldn't help but shrug his shoulders.

After another two minutes, Leo and his party finally arrived in front of the Palace of Shinillet, which is located in the center of the Holy See, the power center of the world's largest sect, and at the same time the supreme holy place in the hearts of millions of believers of the entire Church of Light.

Since the entire Palace of Synilette was forbidden to carriages and horses, and even as a cardinal of Lord Gavin, he could not bring people in and out at will, so after letting Morata wait outside the palace gate, Leo followed Bishop Gavin into the palace wall of the Palace of Synnilet, which was no less beautiful than the outer wall of the Holy See at the other end of the Triumphal Avenue.

"That's the Bell of Light, Bishop Gavin." When the Palazzo Synillet, behind the palace walls, actually appeared in front of Leo, the young Leo immediately noticed the towering bell tower on top of this hexagonal building that exuded solemnity and solemnity in every corner.

"That's right." Bishop Gavin glanced at Leo with a deep meaning in his eyes: "It is precisely because of the sudden ringing of the Bell of Light that we learned of the appearance of the Divine Favorite. ”

After walking through the palace walls, you will not be able to enter the interior of the Palace of Sannilet immediately, but you still need to pass through hundreds of steps, and when you reach the top of the steps, this great building designed and supervised by His Majesty Sanny, the first Pope of the Church of Light, appears in front of you for the first time.

Behind the steps is a small square of about 100 square meters, in the center of which there is a fountain, in the center of which stands a sculpture at least ten meters high, in which an old man wearing a crown and a papal robe holds a scepter and holds his head high to the sky, making a gesture symbolizing victory and light.

"This should be His Majesty the first Pope, Sanny." Looking at the lifelike sculpture in front of him, Leo couldn't help but feel a trace of awe in his heart, and then his gaze suddenly fell on the delicate and small scepter on the sculpture's right hand: "This scepter... Could it be the Pope's scepter?" That is, the Michael's scepter that Lord Lei Feng once mentioned. ”

When he was in the Lito Mountains, Leo had agreed to Lei Feng's three requests. The first request made by Lei Feng was for Leo to obtain this Michael scepter symbolizing the authority of the Pope for him, but only now did Leo really understand what this scepter looked like.

Want to get your hands on it? Leo suddenly couldn't help but laugh to himself, whether he could see the true body of this Michael scepter in this life is a question.

Leo followed Bishop Gavin around the sculpture and through the small square, and then truly entered the solemn church-like building in front of him. Ten minutes later, eleven herald knights rushed out of the palace gates, riding their horses in different directions within the Holy See. After another twenty minutes, all the cardinals finally gathered in the council chamber and waited for the arrival of the Pope.
