Chapter 180: Mysterious Light Pope!
On the road from Gons to Bielefeld, a string of white lights rushed forward, and the huge momentum made the people who were also on the road change color, and they hurriedly avoided the roadside, waiting for the white light group to pass before they were on the road again, even if they were gold-level professionals.
This is the procession of the Temple of Light.
The entire team had maintained a terrifying silence since last night, and the originally warm white light element seemed to take on a pale color. A cardinal was seriously wounded and disabled, a highest-ranking priest of the Holy Inquisition died, and finally, the knight who laughed wildly!
This left most of the members of the Temple of Light in a kind of silence before the explosion, but the four cardinals were not on their minds.
A warm mass of something fluttered lightly on the chest of John's red-gold archrobe, and John, James, Thomas, and Barthoromaeus all looked thoughtful. The hapless Tatai had been sent back to the Holy See of the Temple of Light, and his hand could only be restored by the regeneration spell performed by several cardinals after the artifact was understood.
However, the great enemy is at present, and if they cannot lose the strength of the remaining four cardinal archbishops, they can only let the greedy Bishop Datai return in a one-armed chivalrous state.
Frustrated and annoyed, Tatai was no longer taken to heart by the four cardinals, and the cause of this seemingly strange situation was the cause of Tata's injury, and this reason was waiting quietly on the chest of the first cardinal John at the moment.
The Artifact of Light - Scarab!
In addition to the crown of thorns, which symbolizes the supreme authority of the pope, the scarab beetle can be said to be the second holy artifact representing the pope of light, and this holy weapon has never left the pope's side.
A person with a scarab can instantly transform from an ordinary person into a sorcerer who is proficient in all light magic techniques except for forbidden spells, and the scarab itself is an inexhaustible storehouse of light elemental mana. Historically, many Popes of Light have unleashed large-scale forbidden spells on their own, and they have relied on the magical power of the holy artifact of the scarab!
But, why did this holy artifact appear on the body of that holy judge?!
Is there any necessary connection between this and the fact that the Holy Inquisitor was able to issue a great prophecy?
Yes! The only thing the two have in common is the Pope!
If both of these things are linked to the Pope, then the past can be explained. Perhaps, as the blasphemer said, this Holy Inquisitor is the stand-in for the Pope of Light! But what is the Pope's intention in doing this?! John couldn't find a reason for the Pope's actions, especially since he was also an archbishop whom the Pope trusted so much, and there was no reason for the Pope to hand over the Holy Artifact to a Holy Inquisitor without revealing any of the situation to himself!
The situation is unknown, John did not dare and could not hand over the scarab to any archbishop, and he was the first cardinal archbishop, and now that the Pope was gone, he was naturally the most suitable owner of the scarab.
Even though John's heart has been trained for a long time and has long been impregnable as a rock, he is also very moved in the face of a holy weapon like the scarab beetle, which is said to be the exclusive use of the Pope.
In the past, it took several archbishops to perform the magic arts, but now John can complete it alone, with the scarab beetle, his light magic is no longer lacking, and this holy weapon also has an obvious light magic enhancement effect, which is definitely a great help for John's light magic that has not been promoted for a long time, at least he can experience that feeling once, and in the future, he can cultivate these magic skills that he can't perform on his own, and it also has a role in pointing out the direction.
Thinking of this, John couldn't help but wish that Bielefeld would appear in front of him now, preferably with Winder the blasphemer. Wood was there, too, so he could use the scarab in his name, and for such a powerful blasphemer, John had every reason to use it! There is no need to worry about the reaction of the other three archbishops, as is the case now, and there is no chance to even take it out for a moment.
The road is not far away! John looked ahead, a faint smile on his face.
……
The old man was talking to the three of Skivell, and they didn't make it to the artifact auction house. Relying on the name of invincibility, the five of them directly got a special VIP room in the auction house, because the five of them were unwilling to separate.
The old man's expression was a little puzzled: "Yesterday, I felt the breath of the Pope appear in the city of Gangs!" And it's coming fast towards Bielefeld, but ......"
Panta lazily said, "But what? If you feel wrong, say it! ”
The old man smiled bitterly rarely: "You really said it, little Greens!" I'm really not sure if this person is the Pope or not! ”
Panta stood up in amazement and looked at the old man: "You really don't know?!" ”
The old man sighed: "I'm not afraid to tell you that fifty years ago, the Pope's strength exceeded what I could control!" Therefore, I found an opportunity to manipulate his personal holy artifact, and I have always relied on the holy artifact to monitor the Pope's whereabouts, so as long as the holy artifact leaves the Holy See, the Pope will naturally not be in the Imperial Domain. But this time, the aura of the holy weapon disappeared directly from Difan, and it reappeared in Gangs City. ”
Skewell pondered for a moment and said, "If the Pope is really in Gangs City, it is very unreasonable. Since he was staying with the group of archbishops of the Temple of Light, there was no need for him to hide it from the beginning, because everyone would focus on this team of super-powerful high-level leaders of the Temple of Light. ”
The old man nodded: "I think so too, the question now is, where is the Pope of Light?!" Knowing where he is, you might be able to understand what he's trying to do! ”
Squewell shook his head: "I think the Pope of Light's goal is nothing more than an artifact and Wende. Wood is one or both, or both! We have always stood at the point of our hearts, our purpose has never changed, no matter what the Pope is going to do, as long as we start from Wende and the artifact and expand outward, we can naturally find the Pope! ”
The old man sighed: "However, there is no time for us to judge, the Pope is probably ready at this moment!" I have been monitoring him for more than 100 years, and this person is very thoughtful, and he always calculates things before he makes a move! With only one day to go until the artifact auction, I think, he's already standing somewhere waiting for his chance to make a move. ”
No one questioned the old man's evaluation of the Pope of Light, even the most talkative Panta.
If they have been spying on a person for more than a hundred years, it is impossible not to understand this person's style!
The old man said that the Pope has arrived, and the Pope must have arrived! Now what else can they do?
Squewell said in a deep voice, "We can go!" I think that artifact auction house should be the place where this turmoil ends! No matter if the Pope is scheming, it is impossible for him to steal the artifact, and if he wants to find Winder, he can only go to the auction house now! Get in early, let's get some decorations too! ”
In this regard, everyone was meaningless, and the old man just nodded, signaling that he agreed with Squewell's statement, and seeing that everyone had nothing to say, each with a gloomy expression, he suddenly chuckled: "Don't worry! We've been fighting the Temple of Light for so long! Although it has never really shaken the Temple of Light, the Temple of Light has never been able to do anything to us! The same is true this time, but ...... I'm still looking forward to kicking that Pope of Light's ass! ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help laughing, and Panta jumped off the beam, with a strange smile on his face: "Old man, I don't think it's your turn to make a move this time!" It's as if you've never shown your might in front of people! Do you want me to find some engrams and take a picture of you when the time comes?! ”
The old man smiled, didn't answer, and went out lightly, behind him Skivell, Blowing Snow, and Murtha also followed, Panta stared at the back of the old man leaving, touched his chin a little playfully, hehe laughed, and finally followed out after a while: "Hey, why are you running so fast, old man, do you want to be mad?!" ”
Behind Panta, only a house was left that was extremely lively just now, but now empty.
