The Divine Favor Chapter 35 The Blood of St. Peter
The first phase of the Saint of Light campaign came to a perfect conclusion after Oss obtained two artifact-level tokens for the first time in history.
The opening of the Yale Secret Realm this time was a precedent in the history of the Holy Religion, because no candidate had ever been favored by two tokens at the same time, and it was also two holy artifacts.
After the simultaneous identification of the Pope and the three cardinal archbishops, it was determined that the book was a token of St. Peter, the first light saint of the Holy Religion, and this Bible has another name, that is, the "Second Bible", because this is the second Bible in history, and it is only half a prayer hour away from the birth of the artifact Creation Bible.
And that scepter is St. Peter's personal scepter, and it is also a powerful hallows level staff.
When the two tokens were confirmed, Oss received many invitations from the big names to have dinner with him. The most important of these were Alexander the Great's chamberlain and the second consul of the Papal Chamber, who brought with them His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Pope, respectively, who wished to summon him.
However, these offers were politely declined by Oss on various grounds, because he now had something more important to do.
After returning to the Holy Punishment Hall, Oss found Qing Er Ye alone.
"Second Master, can I ask you some questions?" Oss's tone was very sincere, and his expression was also very serious.
was infected by Oss, and Second Master Qing became rare and serious, because under normal circumstances, Oss would not speak to him in such a solemn tone.
"Ask whatever you want, I'll tell you what I can tell you, and you're qualified to know something now. ”
"Thank you, Second Master. "Auth was grateful, and he turned down the invitations of His Majesty the Pope and His Majesty the Emperor, and hurried back to the Hall of Punishment just to clarify something.
Because in the secret realm before, after the two holy artifacts appeared, he saw an illusion.
In the vision, an old man in an ornate robe smiled kindly at him, his robe was different from that of all levels of the Holy Religious clergy. Then, with a slightly apologetic look, the old man said "I'm sorry" in a mellow voice.
After the illusion disappeared, Oss thought for a long time, and the impact of the old man's "I'm sorry" was too great for him. He didn't understand what kind of guilt could make the old man make up for him with two holy weapons.
"I want to know, the Blood Spirit Pill you gave me isn't just an elixir as you say, right? I asked Colin and he said he had never heard of a similar elixir. ”
Second Master Qing nodded, "Yes, William's evaluation of you is really accurate." You are cautious and smart. ”
"No, I'm just scared of death. ”
"Don't be nervous, we won't have ill will towards you. ”
Qing Erye looked at Oss with a little appreciation and explained.
"It all started with a man named Peter Peter, or St. Peter. ”
As soon as Qing Er Ye opened his mouth, he was shocked, Peter, this is also Os's surname. He gave Oss a deep look and continued.
"You guessed it right, you are a descendant of St. Peter, and your Peters are the bloodline that His Majesty St. Peter has been hiding. No one knew about this from the beginning, except for the consuls of the Holy Punishment Hall of the past generations. And His Majesty St. Peter, in addition to all the titles we know, has another more prominent status, and that is the Pope of the Holy Church, who is the first and only Pope. ”
"Why can't our family be on the surface? Is it because of the struggle for power and profit within the Holy Sect?"
Qing Erye denied Os's conjecture.
"Although the Pope's position has been vacant for 3,000 prayer years, it really has nothing to do with the struggle within the Holy Church, and there is no conflict between the terms of reference of the Pope and the Pope, who is only the spiritual leader and is responsible for directing all penances. Do you know what it takes for a pope to ascend to the throne?"
Oss shook his head when he heard this, he hadn't learned about these things yet.
After seeing that Oss said that he didn't know, Qing Erye went on to explain: "The successor pope will definitely need the recognition of the crown of light, and the enthronement of the Pope also needs the recognition of an artifact, that is, the first artifact, the holy punishment." ”
"Since the soul of His Majesty St. Peter returned to heaven, the body and the spirit have been separated, and its body has been kept in the Hall of Punishment, and its spirit has been sealed in the bloodline of your Peter's family. The two seals you are carrying are not aimed at you, and I believe you understand by now that they are the seals that come with the Holy Punishment. ”
"There is only one chance for the fusion of the Holy Punishment Body and the Machine Spirit, and that is after the first seal of the Machine Spirit is lifted. Therefore, the machine spirit carried by your family has been sealed and not activated. But fifteen years ago, we found the blood crystal of St. Peter in the Hall of Punishments, which was the key to unlocking the first seal, the Bukharin Balance Seal. ”
"No wonder after I ate the so-called Blood Spirit Pill you gave me, the first seal in my body was automatically unlocked, and now I am the twelfth rank of the whole profession. That Blood Spirit Pill is what you call the Holy Blood Crystal of St. Peter, right?But this still doesn't work, there is also a second seal, and the Third Archon said that he can only know one name at present, which is called Kauneheng Perpetual Seal. Oss raised his question.
"Old Terry has found a solution, don't worry, Holy Punishment is too important to us, so important that our Holy Punishment Hall can do whatever it takes. If we're not sure, we won't turn it on. ”
After listening to Second Master Qing's explanation, although he knew the inside story of the matter, he still had a lot of things that he couldn't figure out. But there are some things that he can't say directly, just like he knows that Qing Erye still hasn't told all the facts.
"I see what you mean, you're just here to kick off the Holy Punishment. ”
"Yes, if only you could understand. ”
"I have one last question, what are you going to do after the Holy Punishment is opened? You also said, it's not for the Pope's position, so what else can make the Holy Punishment Hall so cost-effective?"
Second Master Qing narrowed his eyes, "You are still young, although you are indeed more precocious and witty than your peers, but I can't tell you now, you will know later." Don't worry, you're one of us, we're in the same boat, so we're not going to work against you. In the future, you will be in the Hall of Punishments, or even human... One of the leaders. ”
Oss nodded, indicating that he accepted the explanation. But is that really the case? Oss's long-held "I'm sorry" remains unanswered. He also knew that if he continued to ask, Qing Er Ye would not say more, or, in fact, Qing Er Ye didn't know the answer.
"Second master, have you ever thought about it, do you really know the whole truth?"
"What do you mean?" Qing Erye looked puzzled.
"Nothing, I'm talking nonsense. By the way, I'd like to ask you to do something for me. ”
"Say, What's the matter? If it's a loan, it's free, and I'm penniless now. But if you want a set of Ulia's underwear, I can do it for you right away. ”
Qing Erye had a scoundrel look on his face, and after talking about business, he resumed his cynicism again.
Oss is a little helpless, Colin is right, you should never try to talk to Qing Er Ye about serious things, because he will unconsciously use his obscenity and no lower limit to successfully divert the topic.
"Second Master, I just want to ask you to help me go to the Caesar's Colosseum and bring Ares back. ”
"No problem, I'll have this in my hands, but you'll have to pay twenty gold coins for the errands first. ”
"Second master, can you have a face?"
"What do you want that thing for? ”
After talking to Qing Erye, Oss found Colin again.
"Fatty, can you get me some military crossbows?"
After more than a year together, Oss and Colin have become best friends through and through, so the titles between them have changed. Oss would "affectionately" call Colin fat, while Colin would call him "Thor" with a smile.
The former is derived from Colin's size, while the latter is a masochistic act that mocks Oss for his daily non-stop lightning spells.
"If someone had told me that, I would have slapped him in the face. But Thor, you're different, I'll go back and roll on the ground in front of my grandfather twice, I'll definitely be able to get it for you. Colin joked that the two of them could joke with each other, but he promised that he would be able to do it. "Are you going to do it? What did you prepare?"
"It's all used up in the Yale Secret Realm, so we have to prepare separately. Oss replied.
"Are you alright? Are you in danger in the secret realm?" asked Colin with some concern.
"It's okay, it's all settled. ”
"That's good, but it's worth it, you can make a profit without losing money if you exchange those scrolls for two holy weapons. By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet, would-be Saint of Light. ”
Oss smiled, but didn't pick up Colin's words. Colin also saw that Oss was preoccupied, so he spoke to him, and then went home to prepare for the crossbow.
After Colin left, Oss came alone to the tall statue on the edge of the cliff, and he looked up at the statue's blurred face, lost in thought.
Although the half-orc spirit body in the secret realm was purified by two holy weapons, how did he enter the secret realm in full view of everyone? Obviously, he had an accomplice, and it would definitely not be Adrian, if it was him, he would have been attacked a long time ago, and he would not wait for the secret realm to open. So who exactly is that conspirator?
In addition, for the half-orc spirits, among the so many big people and peak powerhouses present, none of them noticed anything unusual? such as His Majesty the Pope, who wore the artifact Light Divine Crown and was born on the opposite side of the dark ability. Or is he aware of it, but indifferent?
And who is the Holy Punishment against, the Holy Religion, or the Higher Being?
Finally, Oss muttered to himself.
"I'm sorry, hehe, I'm sorry. Your Majesty, I am your blood descendant, and what are you sorry for me?"
