As soon as the old priest's words fell, the eight priests shot out eight holy powers, which converged into one point in the sky, and then dispersed into countless white rays of light and sprinkled down, forming a white shield of light that enveloped the entire square.

At the moment when the shield of light was formed, the soft sound of the chant suddenly sounded, echoing in the ears of everyone present. These songs seem to have some special ability, which can remove the irritability in people's hearts, make people unconsciously calm down, and the mood becomes calm and happy.

The old priest spoke again: "Please come forward and perform the charismatic ceremony!" ”

In the center of the square is a sculpture, the sculpture of Pope Sanne I, the first person of the Church of Light, which has been experienced for nearly three hundred years, and looks full of the weight and vicissitudes of history, and in front of the sculpture is placed a pulpit, which is where Leo holds the charismatic ceremony.

The charismatic ceremony is a ritual that every pope must go through before he is officially recognized, and it is said that this ceremony can communicate directly with the great God of Light, and only after the approval of the God of Light will the Pope's identity be officially recognized.

Leo took a deep breath and slowly stepped forward under the gaze of everyone.

To be honest, as a guy who doesn't have the slightest devotion to the Supreme God of Light in his heart, and is not even a believer in the God of Light, Leo really has no idea whether he can pass this hurdle.

In fact, at the beginning, it was for this reason that Leo did not agree to run for the Pope's throne, and you, an unbeliever, came to be the Pope of the Church of Light, did you really take the supreme god of light in heaven seriously? That's going to be a terrible death.

However, Leo's insistence did not last long, and under Dandrien's threats and various packing votes, Leo finally agreed to run for the Pope as a candidate.

Standing behind the pulpit, Leo looked up at Dandrien, who was looking at him with a smile on his face, and said, "I hope that the assurances that Lord Dandrion has given me are not bragging." ”

Anyway, he had come to this point, and Leo had no reason to give up, so he lowered his head and looked at the pulpit in front of him.

This pulpit, like the one in the church in Varna, is small in size, with a very smooth surface, and the edges have begun to wear out, and it is evident that it has been in use for a long time.

In the center of the pulpit was a small box, which looked the size of Leo's fist, made of a special material that was not stone or jade, and at the top of the box was a small round white bead that shone white in the sunlight.

This is the essential prop of the charismatic ritual - the holy box.

Leo took a deep breath and placed his hand on the box, then poured a trace of holy power into the small white bead at the top of the box.

A dazzling white light suddenly burst out of the box, enveloping Leo in an instant, making it impossible for everyone else to see Leo's figure clearly.

Leo was startled by the sudden white light, but he immediately realized that the white light had no ill will towards him at all, but instead made his body feel warm and quite comfortable.

With a "click", the holy box in front of Leo suddenly opened, revealing the contents of the box.

Inside the box is a small bell that looks quite quaint and exquisite.

Strictly speaking, this is not a small bell, because this small bell has the name "Holy Bell" that rings in the big 6.

That's right, this is the true body of the Church of Light's third artifact, the Holy Bell, in addition to the Pope's Crown and Pope's Scepter, and the large bell that has been placed on the highest bell tower of the Palace of Shenilite for three hundred years is actually nothing more than a knockoff.

Of course, if you enlarge this real holy bell to the size of that knockoff, you will see two identical bells appear in front of you, and even the powerhouses of the holy domain level will not be able to distinguish the authenticity from the breath.

Leo hesitated, but reached for the bell.

Whether it is from the records in the church books or the narration of the little girl Angelina, as long as you hold the holy bell with your hand, you can communicate with the omnipotent god of light, but everyone has a different scene of communication with the god of light, so no one can say exactly what Leo will experience after holding the bell.

Leo's hand gripped the small bell in front of him tightly.

After a sudden burst of vertigo, everything in front of Leo's eyes began to slowly become clearer.

"It's—" Leo looked at everything in front of him in shock.

At this moment, Leo was no longer in front of the pulpit in the square of the Holy See Shining Lite Palace, but came to a platform shrouded in countless white lights, and in front of him was a series of white jade steps that went all the way up and had no end in sight.

"Come on." A thunderous voice exploded in Leo's ears, pressing down on Leo with endless coercion, making Leo feel the urge to kneel and surrender.

After a full moment, Leo let the surging qi and blood in his body slowly calm down, and he was secretly shocked in his heart: "Such a powerful coercion! Not to mention Lord Dandrien, even when Angelina, a little girl at the demigod level, attacked with all her might, I didn't feel this kind of coercion from her, could this be the voice of the God of Light? ”

Leo froze, and then walked up the steps in front of him. Although the soft white light was shrouded in light on all sides, the platform and the steps were clearly located high in the air, and from the first step up the steps, Leo could feel the violent wind whirring on him, making him even feel like he was having trouble breathing.

"What's going on?" Leo's heart was shocked: "This feeling is so real, isn't it that my soul has been teleported here, but my whole person, including my body?" ”

Leo's lips moved slightly, and he instantly blessed himself with a few shields, finally blocking the annoying wind, and continued to go up the steps.

After about ten minutes, Leo finally walked the narrow staircase and came to a plaza at the top of the staircase.

Then he was stunned again.

At this moment, Leo was in front of an extremely magnificent palace, and even the most luxurious and atmospheric palace Leo had ever seen in the world, the palace of kings in the city of Ridmar, could not reach a thousandth of this palace.

The moment Leo stepped into the square, the originally closed door of the temple suddenly opened slowly, and countless dazzling white lights shone out from behind the gate, making Leo can't help but close his eyes.

The majestic voice rang in Leo's ears again.

"Come in."
