Chapter Ninety-Three: The Holy Flame
As a lord, Viscount Juan, who eliminated the four major gangsters of the Varna Lord, undoubtedly had great prestige, so everyone focused their eyes on his face and waited for him to speak. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Viscount Juan was clearly prepared, and the words that came out of his mouth were not only full of energy, but also fluent and unthinking: "First of all, you are very welcome to come to our festival of light. As a long-standing traditional ritual in our Spanny Empire, the Light Festival has a history of hundreds of years. The great King Lionheart once said that as long as darkness is not extinguished, we must not let our guard down for a day. The reason why we are offering these three heretics from the Dark Sect as the sacrifice of the Light Sacrifice today is to let everyone know that the Varna Leader is inseparable from the Dark Sect from top to bottom! ”
"Good! You can say that again! As soon as Viscount Juan finished speaking, the whole square became a sea of applause. Leo watched coldly, knowing very well that this was not to say that Viscount Juan's words were so instigating, but simply because of the love of the people of Varna City for this lord.
Even if Viscount Juan stood there and didn't say anything but let out a loud fart, it is estimated that many people would applaud this fart.
This is not sycophancy, but - the hearts of the people.
Eliminate harm for the people, and the people's hearts can be gained.
Viscount Juan had a smile on his face, and he stretched out his hands and pressed it gently.
The square fell silent again.
Viscount Juan's deep baritone voice sounded again: "Now, please welcome our new Bishop, Lord Antonidas Prol, with applause, to preside over the Rite of Light for us. ”
Leo stood up from his position and walked over to Viscount Juan's side.
The applause rang out again, but compared to the thunderous voice of Viscount Juan's conversation before, this applause could only be described as sparse.
Viscount Juan nodded slightly to Leo, then walked back to his place and sat down, giving up the entire table to Leo.
Since this ceremony is called the Illumination Festival, then of course it will be presided over by Leo, the bishop of the Church of Light.
Thousands of eyes from up and down the entire square gathered on Leo at this moment, and although this feeling of attention made Leo feel a little cool, it also made him a little panicked.
If you make a big fool of yourself in such a situation in full view of everyone, it will really be a loss of prestige.
Could this be Viscount Juan's intentions? Thinking of this, Leo felt a little more vigilant in his heart.
Let's finish this boring ritual as soon as possible.
Leo cleared his throat and spoke slowly: "Fellow fathers and fellow citizens of the Varna Parish, I think everyone present knows very well in their hearts what we are gathered here for. ”
The young bishop looked at the three burners in front of him with a serious face, his lips trembled slightly, and he finished reciting the incantation in an instant, releasing a holy light spell on his body.
"Look! The Bishop's body glows! Someone in the crowd suddenly let out an exclamation.
The midday sun fell vertically above Leo and the young bishop suddenly appeared with a white light, as if there were tiny white elves dancing around him.
"This is a miracle, could it be that our bishop is a person who has been favored by the Most High God of Light?" There was another round of discussion in the crowd.
However, this statement was immediately refuted by the elders: "Miracle you are big! The old man has lived for so many years, and he has seen more bishops and adults than you have ever seen girls! There is not a single one of these bishops who does not sparkle! ”
"Yo, don't rely on the old man to sell the old, this is obviously a miracle! If you don't accept you, go up and send me a light to try? You can do it, you can do it, don't be verbose. ”
Seeing that the quarrel was about to get out of control again, at this moment, Darwin, the temple warrior standing behind Leo's chair on the platform, suddenly coughed lightly, and then said a word.
This cough was so light that even Viscount Juan and Sheriff Falindo on the stage did not hear it, but it was deafening to the ears of the two people arguing in the audience, and they could barely stand still: "Shut up, or die." ”
The argument quickly faded away.
At this moment, the Holy Light Technique on Leo's body also fully played its role, and at this moment, the young blue-clothed bishop was surrounded by a bright white light, and the whole person's expression looked solemn and solemn, and in one word, it was - sacred!
Sacred and solemn, like the spokesman of the gods in the world, every gesture is majestic!
Countless dense white lights suddenly burst out from Leo's body in the next moment, and the light was so dazzling that it was completely impossible to look at directly!
Almost everyone in the square bowed their heads in Leo's direction, even Viscount Juan stood up from his chair and bowed his head slightly. There were even a few devout believers who knelt directly on the ground, kowtowing with tears in their eyes.
However, at this moment, Leo did not have any sense of pleasure in his heart, you must know that Leo is only a second-level magician, and the holy light explosion just now has consumed two-thirds of the holy power in his body: "Damn, this qualified divine stick doesn't look very good!" Let's hurry up and end this nonsense ritual and send these three guys on their way. ”
Although the three people in front of them are not the heretics of the dark sect that everyone on the continent hates, they are death row prisoners who have committed the most heinous crimes, so Leo actually doesn't have much psychological pressure to kill them.
"It's to blame that your lives are not good, and you can't keep whole corpses like those beheaded guys." Leo muttered a sentence, then stretched out his hand to the three burns three times in a row, and the words in his mouth echoed in the ears of everyone in the square with the blessing of holy power: "Believers in the light, all you need to do is offer your devotion to our Lord, and you will be redeemed after death." And the heretics who have fallen into darkness will be purified by the flame of holiness! ”
Three streams of pure flame flew out of Leo's fingers and flew onto the dense pile of firewood beneath the three burners.
Firewood is dry.
Dry wood is only fire.
Leo's three flames were only the size of a petal, but they were even hotter than the real flames.
With a whew, the pyres under the three burners burned at the same time.
Leo breathed a sigh of relief, his work was over, and the next thing was to wait.
But in the next moment, a trace of uneasiness suddenly flashed through Leo's heart: "Is this light festival really ending so smoothly?" ”
Many people have the experience that when you have a premonition that something bad is going to happen, the next moment it happens.
This time Leo was no exception.
