Chapter 244: St. Marda, Papal State

A day later, with the assistance of Tarask, Li Ji and Marda arrived at the shoreline.

After questioning the local villagers, they learned that being in Naples meant that a further 100 kilometers northwest would lead to the city of Rome in the Papal States and the adjacent Vatican.

The next day, they came to the foot of the city.

The maiden once again took the scepter in her hand, put on her robe, and became a pious saint in the form of a holy woman, facing the holy city that existed because of him.

"Marda, aren't you happy?"

"Master, you should know that two hundred years ago, the Eastern and Western Churches split, and in a few years, Constantinople will fall, and somehow it makes me a little uncomfortable." Marda sighed.

Li Ji is not a believer after all, and he can't feel the girl's complicated feelings, so he changed the topic after a moment of silence: "At the moment, the Pope should be Eugene IV, but he shouldn't be here, what are you going to go in?" Did the miracles appear to the world? Our goal should be to try to use the Catholic nations to help us gather information. ”

"Punch in, of course! The master's way is not suitable for me, so I will report my name, and if I don't admit it, just use my Jager siblings to make them admit it! ”

Marda said neatly that standing on this land made her stronger than ever, and she was no longer afraid of any extra-spec heroic spirits.

And then... The girl really punched in.

The people of this holy land once again witnessed the moment of the miracle.

Even if something not so good happens at the beginning, one thinks that God has a grudge against the people of the earth and sends disaster on him, similar to the Black Death a few decades ago.

Soon, with the girl punching and kicking all the way, the heavily armored guards who blocked him were stunned and paralyzed, and they were thrown outside the city; With the miracles emanating from the girl's body, the angelic phantoms that surround her; Accompanied by the use of boxing techniques from the master Moses that can cut the sea from generation to generation, creating a path of hope for them to pass through, step by step into the papal residence.

They finally recognized the identity of the maiden, and the legendary saint, even the Pope, the spokesman of the heavenly kingdom on earth, was at most equal to her.

Half a day later, Li Ji, as a pagan, entered the center of the Catholic center of this era.

"Sure enough, the mystery is quite strong... Including the guards and bishops, they all have extraordinary powers, and they are just compared to Marda, so is it what this world should look like in the official history? ”

"Master, alright, I've gathered all the bishops!" Marda spoke.

The bishops around them did not understand why there were foreigners, and they thought that the Holy Maiden had appeared to save the declining Catholic Church.

You must know that since the Eight Crusades, Catholicism has never recaptured the Holy Land, and the flame of faith has been extinguished by many people.

The mystical religions that arose in the East continued to oppress Catholicism, and even the split Orthodox Church was about to be unable to hold on, and the territory of the Eastern Roman Emperor was getting smaller and smaller, and it was about to break through Constantinople and flow into Europe.

The kings of Europe, who were supposed to be allies, dragged their feet at this time, unwilling to let the power of the pope be too centralized, and hoped to weaken the power of the pope, and even many reformers appeared to plan for religious reform.

I have to say that this is really an unlucky time.

But... Of course, Li Ji didn't care much, and asked directly about what happened in France.

Faced with the young man's questioning, the bishops had to submit to the authority of the saint and answer truthfully.

"Oh, was Joan of Arc burned to death a few days ago?"

Knowing this, Li Ji was already able to determine some information, but when he went on to ask about some unique plots, the bishops looked confused and said that they didn't know anything.

There is no way, the means of communication in this era are too backward, and it takes more than a week to transmit information across several countries without magic.

Marda had no choice but to use the privilege of having the bishops send out a survey and then settle down in the Vatican.

Fortunately, at this time, Li Ji noticed that Semiramis, who had not heard back for a long time, conveyed her thoughts.

"What, Black Joan of Arc? Did it really become the same as the first anomaly? ”

"Wait, the servant summoned by Joan of Arcβ€”"

"Berserker Thomas Edison, the American inventor, worked hard to recreate the direct current he loved."

"Archer Nikola Tesla, the creator of alternating current, created alternating current for competition."

"Berserker Florence Nightingale, the angel of the Crimea, the ancestor of nurses, constantly disinfected those soldiers, amputated their limbs, saved their lives."

"Caster Charles Babbage, the father of the computer, the king of steam... Make a difference machine, make a steam engine..."

Archimedes, ancient Greek philosopher, scientist, and mathematician. What the!!! In the pursuit of the legendary SefalΓΉ giant, this should be okay, although the UO-level danger, if it is really realized in this world, I am afraid that I will not be able to save it. ”

"Plus I don't know Lori who can die, rider Napoleon Bonaparte, the Emperor of France, the first general in Europe... As Joan of Arc's deputy, he fought everywhere, and for the time being, he didn't have the artillery he was good at, and the results were relatively unsatisfactory. ”

"Finally, it's you, assassin Semiramis, who maintain the defenses, build civilian works, and secretly plot to recreate a vain courtyard in the air, aren't you afraid of impoverishing France..."

"Then, all the servants were summoned with the help of the Holy Grail, plus the last Avenger Joan of Arc herself and her marshal Caster Gildere..."

After hearing the news, Li Ji was a little devastated, this peculiarity was really wonderful.

He sighed and praised: "Very good, your information is very useful, how to say it, I think Joan of Arc should be very hard, to pull and discipline so many servants, but ah, I think such a start is very potential, if it develops, create Charlemagne's exploits, and restore the glory of the Roman Empire." ”

After contacting Semiramis, Li Ji received a batch of extremely important information, and he asked the girl to continue to lurk near Joan of Arc.

The next thing to consider is what to do next.

You must know that at this paradoxical first peculiarity, the two development routes that I guessed no longer exist.

Let's not talk about the official history.

It is very different from the Hundred Years War of the Evil Dragons, there are no servants such as Vlad III, Atalanta, Marda, Dion, Camilla, etc., and the story can end with only the need to deal with Black Joan of Arc and reclaim the Holy Grail, but now this is not the case.

"Considering our desire to transform the anomalies into a future where they can no longer be ignored... Joan of Arc seems to have started well, do I have to help her? The thought of Napoleon's existence, somehow, I don't think it's reliable..."

"Anyway... Talk to Holmes again. ”
