Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and a smile appeared on your face. Auston twisted the beard at the corner of his mouth and sighed, "That's really unfortunate, it's good news to celebrate, but a new pope will be elected soon, and it doesn't mean much to us." ”

Indeed, the life or death of the Pope has no effect on the Bloodline, and the next Pope will still kill their Bloodline.

However, Clark didn't think so, shook his head slightly, and said, "During this power vacuum, we can do something meaningful." ”

Everyone's eyes were on him, and Auston smiled, "I'm willing to listen." ”

Clarke's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked around at the crowd and asked, "Why can the Knights Templar compete with us?" ”

A group of people looked at each other and wondered if this was even more important. Balk waved his hand and said, "Naturally, it's the damn holy water." ”

Auston's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he thought of what made holy water, and stared at Clark and said in a deep voice, "Clark, are you playing the idea of the Pope's scepter?" ”

Everyone was suddenly shocked, and Clark spread his hands to everyone, "Why not?" Don't you think it's the best time for the Holy See's strongest force, the cardinal, who has not yet recovered, and Pope Paul has died of illness? I think it's worth the risk. ”

Alston chuckled, "The Vatican is the home of the Knights Templar, Clarke, and breaking into the Vatican is not a good idea. ”

Clark leaned forward slightly, whispering in his ear, "Maybe not as dangerous as you think." ”

Auston tilted his head and smiled in the other person's ear, "Give me ten minutes to think about it." ”

He left the villa in full view of everyone, and slowly walked away with a thoughtful look. After turning a corner, he couldn't see the villa, and the villa couldn't see him, so he took out the phone and dialed out. I don't know who I'm contacting.

But ten minutes later, he returned to the living room as promised, and nodded to Clark very dryly, "The Demon Party will cooperate with you fully." ”

In fact, Lin Zixian, who was waiting leisurely at the Vatican, got the news later than Clark, and Lin Zixian was shocked to learn that Paul had died suddenly.

The person who informed him was Bishop Lava, and all the cardinals in the Vatican were going to meet for discussion, and Lin Zixian, a bishopric-level cardinal, was also notified, after all, he also took the title of bishop. As soon as Paul died, the election of a new pope had to be scheduled and arranged. What to do is to be discussed by the cardinals, and no one dares to dictate this.

He has now changed into the bishop's red robe, after all, he lives in the Holy See headquarters, and he is always too eye-catching to wear civilian clothes, not to mention that he is also qualified to wear religious clothes. At this time, he wore a red robe and ran after Rava to mourn. It's not rude.

In a church, Lin Zixian saw Paul, wearing a crown and a moon-white robe, lying peacefully on the mourning bed, surrounded by flowers, with the folds of age spots on his face, holding a golden cross on his chest with his hands, sleeping peacefully. There are four black-clad priests standing in the four corners of the mourning bed. A wake for Paul's body.

There were already a lot of people at the scene, all cardinals in the Vatican. One by one, the people who came in saluted Paul's body.

Like everyone else, Lin walked to the funeral bed and prayed at Paul's body. He was in a very unhappy mood at this time, how could this old guy say that he would die if he died? He stayed at the Vatican to wait for Paul's plan to eradicate the Bloodline. Who knows that if you don't die sooner or later, but if you die at this time, it's really disgusting.

Because he knew that Paul was sick and lived a short time, but he died too suddenly. Caught him off guard.

After saluting, he stared at Paul's body and frowned for a moment. Then they followed suit and stood in the crowd of cardinals on both sides.

After all the cardinals in the Vatican had arrived, the six archbishops, who assist the Pope in daily affairs in charge of the affairs of the Holy See, led everyone to a conference room, and under the chairmanship of the six archbishops, the election of the next pope was discussed in advance. Before the new pope takes office, the work of the Holy See cannot be stopped, and it is also discussing the division and implementing it to some people for temporary management.

This kind of matter of real power is naturally not Lin Zixian's turn, and Lin Zixian is too lazy to express his opinions, with eyes and ears, but without a mouth.

After the division of duties for the provisional trusteeship was clear, the six bishops asked everyone to keep the news of Paul's death secret for the time being, and to announce the Pope's death to the public after all the preparations were completed. No one objected, and when everyone was about to disperse, Lin Zixian coughed and said, "Wait, everyone." ”

When everyone heard this, they didn't expect him to bubble, and one of the six bishops asked, "Does Bishop Caesar have any opinion?" ”

Lin Zixian, who was dressed in a red robe and was very stylish, walked out of the crowd and sighed: "I want to give His Majesty the Pope a vigilance, I hope you can agree." ”

Everyone looked at each other with doubts on their faces. One of the six bishops frowned and said, "Can you give us one."

A reason? ”

Lin Zixian stepped forward slowly, squeezed directly to the middle of the six bishops, and slowly turned around, three on the left and three on the right, making him look like the boss.

He stood in the middle and said with a sad face on everyone: "Presumably, many people know my original identity, if it weren't for the support of His Majesty the Pope, I would not be where I am today, and I would not have had the opportunity to stand with you to discuss the great cause of the Holy See." His Majesty's kindness to me is higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea, and I will never forget it in my life. Now that His Majesty the Pope has passed away suddenly, the grief in my heart is indescribable. I hate myself for not cherishing the opportunity to receive training from His Holiness the Pope, and I regret it until I lose it, and if God can give me another chance, I am willing to serve by His Holiness forever...... I hope that you will give me one last chance to accompany His Holiness the Pope, and I am willing to stay by His Holiness until he is buried! ”

As he spoke, his eyes turned red, and his grief-stricken appearance made everyone sigh. Some people sighed in their hearts, no wonder His Majesty the Pope was trying to promote him at the beginning, and he was very emotional. There are also people who mutter, really fake?

The six bishops looked at each other, and one of them asked the crowd, "What do you think?" ”

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, the attitude is obvious, no matter whether Caesar pretends to be or is really good, isn't it just to keep a wake for His Majesty the Pope, what does it matter? As long as you don't jump out and fight for power and profit at this time, it's good.

"I agree!" Bishop Rava was suddenly the first to raise his hand in agreement.

It would be easy for someone to take the lead, and most of the people raised their hands to agree, and only a few people reserved their opinions, so Lin Zixian gave Paul's advice on the wake of the spirit.

After the meeting was dismissed, Bishop Rava gave an edict to the guards, explaining the situation, and asking the guards to let the forest idle into the church where Paul's body was kept.

Lin Zi broke in in a casual manner, but when he tried to get close to Paul's body, he was stopped by four black-clad priests, who could only watch from a distance and not let him approach. Lin Zixian had no opinion, so he sat on a bench in the church and waited.

He was really keeping a wake for Paul, not a fake, and he kept it until dawn the next day.

During this period, Angelo, the papal attendant, came in several times to persuade him to rest, but he was not persuaded to leave.

On a sunny morning, Angelo walked in from the outside again, walked to Lin Zixian, who was meditating cross-legged, bowed and saluted, "Your Excellency, you haven't rested all night, go back and rest." ”

Lin Zixian, who was meditating and recuperating, opened his eyes, looked at Paul lying on the spiritual bed, shook his head and said: "I just want to be by His Majesty's side, my current mood is very sad, even if I go back, I can't sleep." ”

Angelo was a little speechless, thought for a moment and said, "My lord, I understand your feelings, but you can't stop eating. ”

Lin Zixian nodded and said, "I'm a little hungry, you help me bring the food, and I'll eat it here." ”

Angelo smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, eating in front of the body of His Majesty the Pope is a blasphemy. You can come back after you've eaten and it won't have any effect. ”

Lin Zixian looked up at him, and suddenly showed a sad face and said: "Angelo, I can become the cardinal archbishop of the Holy See, it is the result of His Majesty the Pope's hand, I have no teeth to forget." His Majesty the Pope passed away, the grief in my heart you can't understand, I just want to be by His Majesty's side now, I don't want to leave a single step. Say no more, even if I starve to death, I will not turn my back on my faith, and I will not leave His Majesty the Pope even if I starve to death. ”

Bishop Caesar's loyal servant to His Majesty the Pope, Angelo can be regarded as a witness today, and it can be said that he is in awe. However, in addition to being in awe, it seems to be a little helpless.

After repeated attempts to persuade him to no avail, Angelo walked up to Paul's body and bowed, then turned and left the church.

At noon, Angelo came to persuade Bishop Caesar to eat, but Lin Zixian's attitude was very resolute and he didn't go!

At dinner, Angelo came again, but Lin Zixian's attitude was still resolute.

However, Angelo was worried that he would starve Bishop Caesar's body, and he couldn't persuade him, so Angelo had no choice but to invite the six bishops to come and persuade him.

However, it was useless for the six bishops to persuade him, and Lin Zi refused to leave His Majesty the Pope for half a step when he died, vowing that as long as His Majesty the Pope was not buried for a day, he would not leave for a day, and unless he was killed, it would be useless for anyone to persuade him.

Bishop Caesar's loyalty to His Majesty the Pope was simply earth-shattering, which amazed the six bishops, and at the same time admired Pope Paul's insight into people, and actually accepted such a loyal hardcore believer, which is worth learning from Paul.

As a result, the six bishops also returned in vain. Anyway, Bishop Caesar is not his confidant, he starved to death and pulled down, but he can fulfill the good name of the Holy See.

Now everyone has no heart to take care of Lin Zixian, and is preparing for the pope election, who of the six bishops does not want to ascend to the pope's throne in one fell swoop?

If they persuade them in a cozy manner, they will fulfill their responsibilities and will not be discredited, and the six bishops will go back and go their own way.
