Chapter 206: The Holy Mountain
"It's indeed a warning bell, it's never been there before, who dares to invade here!" Evely was also surprised.
As if to confirm their words, they saw groups of paladins rushing out of the various buildings, and the sound of neat footsteps shook the ground.
Gradually, people of all colors and clothes also came out, all with a look of surprise on their faces, obviously not understanding what was happening.
Kane was also a little curious, this is the base camp of the Holy See, who is so bold as to come here to spread wilderness.
Norton pulled a hurried priest beside him, "What happened?"
The priest had apparently seen Norton, and said respectfully, "High Priestess, we don't know what's going on, it looks like it should be an emergency." ”
Norton nodded, left the man behind, and quickened his pace forward.
Kane and Evely hurriedly followed, and walked for a long time until they came to a large circle.
To be precise, this is a large circular square, covering an area of thousands of meters, and in the center of the square, is a gorgeous indescribable giant church, the whole building is layered on top of each other can not see what kind of structure, only in front of the gate tens of meters high, and at the top of this building there is a wide platform, on which is a huge statue dozens of feet high.
The statue is a male, faced* and slightly benevolent, with his hands stretched out, a white robe, and a golden holy sword hanging from his waist.
What caught Kane's eye was the sword that looked like it had been carved, as it was glowing with a dazzling golden light.
At the same time, Norton's gaze was fixed on the holy sword, but there was a deep look of surprise in his eyes, and after a pause, he led Kane to the church.
He did not go through the main entrance, but entered through a small door on the side, followed by a row of stairs that winded upward, and then through a long corridor to a large hall.
Kane said as he walked, "It looks like something happened, but why didn't you see anyone from the sky?"
This is obviously unreasonable, as the headquarters of the Holy See, this place must be full of masters, and it is not uncommon for people at the level of magic masters to be here, but why is there no one in this situation.
"This is the Absolute Forbidden Sky Realm, and anyone who controls the Sky will be punished by Heavenly Father. The one who answered him was Evely next to her.
Kane nodded and stopped with Norton, seeing a row of paladins standing in front of the hall in front of him, and he could vaguely see that there was also a crowd inside.
"You wait here while I figure out what's going on. Norton dropped a word and walked in, Kane was a little anxious but didn't dare to break in, so he could only wait with Evely.
In the center of the hall is a large table, flanked by rows of seats, and this is where the high-level of the Holy See is located, and only a very small number of people are allowed to enter.
As soon as Norton entered the door, he immediately caught the attention of several people, "Is the war over?
Norton was a little anxious, "The war is not over, I just came back to do something important, can you tell me what happened?"
An old man dressed in the same clothes as Norton said, "It's not clear yet, but the bishop is coming over, and I'm sure he'll find out soon, what are you doing when you come back?"
Norton was about to speak, when a door opened at the back of the hall, and three richly dressed men walked in one after another.
Everyone present saluted, and the three people who walked in were all the real rulers of the Holy See, including a bishop and two elders who were in charge of the security of the entire Sanctuary.
After the salute, everyone sat down in their places in turn, and the old bishop in the center took the lead in speaking, "The artifact vibrates, and the alarm bell rings itself, but so far nothing abnormal has been found, there should be something wrong, you don't have to be suspicious, go your own way." ”
The audience didn't dare to say anything, and they were about to end the meeting, but Norton suddenly thought of something, got up and said, "May I ask the Bishop, why did the artifact suddenly shake?"
The crowd who was already about to leave stopped hearing him say that, and the old bishop's face became a little unhappy, "High Priest Norton, what do you have to say?" ”
Norton saluted, "Returning to Lord Bishop, as far as I know, there are only two reasons that can cause the artifact to vibrate, one is that there is a great evil within a thousand miles of the artifact, and the other is that there are people with very strong divine power within a thousand miles of the artifact, I don't know if that's the case?"
The Holy See artifact has always been the most mysterious thing in the world to the outside world, and even most people doubt the authenticity of its existence, but it is not a secret to those here, the Holy See artifact not only exists, but also does not sit on the table, on the contrary, it will be used every few decades.
The Holy See artifact is a very sacred and highly spiritual thing, when the Holy See Holy Maiden dies, this artifact will be born abnormal, and choose the next owner by itself, this is the real standard for the Holy See to choose the Holy Woman, not as rumored by the outside world to find the purest person in the world.
Through the observation of the saints of the past, the Holy See has come to a conclusion that the owner of each choice of the artifact is a person with a very strong power of faith, and this power of faith is called the Holy See, which is not a real combat power, but a temperament similar to purity and kindness, and a natural force of nature.
Truth, goodness and beauty are the essence of the Holy Light that the Holy See has always preached, and only people with very high divine power can control the Holy See artifact, even if the Holy Woman herself is likely to be just an ordinary person without any cultivation, so the Holy See calls this phenomenon the inheritance of God.
The old bishop nodded, probably understanding what he meant, and said with a serious face: "Do you think that while the holy woman is alive, who else can attract the holy power of the artifact?"
Norton was already seven or eight points sure of the conjecture in his heart, "One person may not be able to do it, but if there is a golden holy dragon incarnated by the legendary Holy Light, I don't know if it can cause the artifact to move?"
"Golden Holy Dragon?" the old man looked at Norton, and then at the surprised crowd, "High Priest Norton, what exactly do you want to say?"
Norton was not alarmed, judging from the current situation, it was obvious that the black-clothed priest had not really told the people here the news, and even he had probably only told Austin alone, so things should not be as bad as imagined.
"Back to Lord Bishop, I have a very important thing to report, and it is also the reason why I came back this time, in the Longling Empire where I am currently stationed, an unprecedented human genius was born, he is only seventeen years old now, he has reached the level of a mage, in addition, he is also a full-line magician, and has learned arcane magic!"
"Huh?"
......
......
There was a wave of surprise around him, and everyone stared at Norton, waiting for his next step.
"Not only that, but he is also a Golden Holy Dragon Knight, and just today, all the Paladins stationed on the border of the Dragon Empire have seen the Golden Holy Dragon, including War Bishop Moro and Evely. ”
"What you said is true?, that Golden Holy Dragon Knight and Mo Luo have fought?" the old man was also shocked.
Norton shook his head, "According to Evely, they didn't fight, Morrow's dragon fell directly from the sky a hundred meters away from the Golden Holy Dragon Knight, and then prostrate at the feet of that knight, after which Hubert, the front-line commander appointed by the Holy See, was instantly burned to ashes by the flames of the Golden Holy Dragon. ”
"What, Hubert is dead?!"
Norton nodded, "Because he suspected that the Holy Dragon Knight was a heretic, he resolutely united several high-level magicians and priests at that time to make a move, and there were even thousands of Paladins below, but they didn't bargain, Evely's original words were that the golden holy dragon suddenly appeared, covering the entire sky, and all the paladins were bathed in a golden holy light, and no one dared to attack him, all of them surrendered to the feet of the holy dragon, and the knight stood quietly next to the holy dragon, like a god. ”
Everyone was speechless by his words, and for a moment a pin drop could be heard in the hall.
"Where is that person now?" asked the old man with a frown.
"I brought him back, and as soon as he entered the Sanctuary, he caused an artifact to move, and he is now outside the door, along with Evely. ”
"Oh, let him in. The old man frowned and said something that everyone in the room wanted to say.
Norton nodded, turned around and gave a command, and in a short time saw Evely lead a handsome young man in.
Kane naturally knew that everyone here was a big man, but he couldn't mention it at the moment, and as soon as he entered the door, he said, "Where is my wife?"
The bishop looked at Norton with an inquiring look, and the latter understood and told Bethany as it was, and the crowd was amazed.
"You're saying that the fox girl Austin brought back is his wife?"
Norton nodded, "And this Holy Dragon Knight has brought back a lot of information about dark creatures, and the specific matters have even been presented to the Pope, if what he says is true, the current situation will completely change our understanding." ”
The Bishop turned his head to look at Kane, and seeing that he was calmly angry, he thought for a while and turned around and ordered, "Go and bring Elder Geras." ”
A paladin responded and walked out.
Here the bishop looked at the people around him again, and ordered everyone except Norton to retreat first, although the group was a little curious about what they said, but they did not dare to disobey the order, and they all saluted and walked out, and the hall suddenly became empty.
"Sit down, if the situation is really true, I believe the Holy See will give you an explanation. ”
Kane nodded slightly, walked to a position next to him and sat down, the current situation is that if he doesn't want to tear his face with the Holy See, he has to be patient for a while, although his strength is not what it used to be, but he doesn't think he can mess around in this place.
