Chapter 441: Pope, Darbaatar!
On September 9, the Pope's Sacrifice Ceremony.
At this time, the main square in the center of the imperial capital was crowded with people.
At a glance, the mountains are full of human heads, as many as 100 stairs are crowded with people, and there is no distance between people even an arm's length, it is completely the scene of people crowding people and squeezing people to death, and it is conservatively estimated that no less than 100,000 people come to participate.
"Why hasn't Pope Darbaatar come out yet, I have only squeezed in this time for so many papal sacrifice ceremonies, I want to take a good look at his old man's heroic appearance. ”
"Are you stupid, the sacrificial ceremony has not yet begun, how could the Pope appear so early, and how the most important person was also the last to appear, do you understand. ”
"Big brother, don't worry, Pope Darbaatar will definitely appear, let's just wait slowly. ”
"Alas, His Holiness the Pope lives in seclusion on weekdays, and even a few high-ranking members of the Lother God Cult are rarely seen, and it is fortunate that ordinary people such as us can see it. ”
"That's right, praise to the great Lothor!"
............
"Actually, if you want me to say, isn't it because of His Majesty's prohibition that His Majesty lives in seclusion, and I don't know what His Majesty thinks?"
"Who said it wasn't, if it weren't for His Majesty's suppression of our Lother God Cult, why would the Pope be here, now His Majesty is seriously ill and unconscious, and the Great Prince will even ......give the Pope to them."
"What nonsense, are you crazy! If you want to die, don't hurt us!"
"Oh, yes, I'm sorry. ”
............
The noise and shouts came from time to time, and the entire large square in the center of the imperial capital fell into a boil.
"Your Excellency the Pope, wasn't this Rother God Cult suppressed by all its might during the reign of His Majesty the Thirteenth, how could it still have such a terrifying appeal?"
Sitting in the position prepared for the major sects, Edward looked at Rhodes with emotion on his face and said, with a hint of jealousy in his words.
"Normally, the Rother Cult has been the state religion of the Auckland Empire for hundreds of years, and its Pope Darbaatar has been in office for decades, although because of the suppression of Auckland XIII, the prestige and control of the Rothar Cult in the major provinces of the empire have been disintegrated and divided by other major sects. ”
Rod glanced at the sacrificial ceremony beside him that was no less lively than or even surpassed the scene of their Taoist miracles, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said slowly,
"But in the imperial capital, in this imperial capital where only the Rother Cult is dominant, although Darbaatar is in seclusion due to the suppression of Oakland X, the prestige and influence of the Rother Cult in the imperial capital is still extremely large. ”
"Even so, this level is still shocking, and this Rother Cult is probably not as weak as the rumored empty shell. ”
Aiolos on the side also frowned, and said with some concern,
"This time, the affairs of the imperial capital seem to be more troublesome than imagined. ”
"Well, the situation of the Lothor Divine Cult at this time is indeed beyond my expectations. ”
Rod bowed slightly, and his face was a little gloomy.
To be honest, he hadn't thought much about the role of the Locker Cult in the imperial capital this time, after all, according to intelligence, the strength of the Rother Cult was already quite weak, and he hadn't considered the Rothar Cult's control of the imperial capital, but he was more inclined to Oakland XIII's strong control of the imperial capital far beyond that of the Rother Cult.
But so far, this is not the case.
There is no need for other cities or provinces, this imperial capital alone is enough to provide extremely large financial and material resources and even manpower for the Rother God Cult, you must know that the prosperity of the imperial capital and its population size are far from being comparable to other towns, and controlling the imperial capital is almost equivalent to controlling several provinces.
"Your Excellency, then we ......"
Edward glanced at Aiolos and then asked Rhodes.
"It's all right, see this sacrifice and their Pope Darbaatar first. ”
Rod was silent for a moment, then said lightly.
Although the situation was beyond his expectations, it was still under control, and there was no need to panic because of this.
"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope. ”
Edward and Aeolos looked at each other, then replied respectfully.
............
"Lord Jorgosi, this situation is different from what His Highness told us. ”
Not far from the Taoist position, where the people of the Moroni Sect were seated, a warrior in obsidian armor frowned, and said in a deep voice to Yargosi in front of him.
Obviously, not only Taoism, but even the Moronian religion and even the great prince Arthurs, who had lived in the imperial capital for a long time, also misjudged the situation of the Lother Cult.
"En......"
Yargosi glanced at the grand venue and the crazy believers around the venue, his originally calm and breezy face also changed, and he said after a while in his mouth,
"His Royal Highness the Great Prince has always been in the imperial capital, and there should be no mistake in mastering the situation of the Lother God Cult, and the situation of this pope's sacrificial ceremony today may be related to His Majesty the Thirteenth being seriously ill and in a coma, of course, there may also be some other factors. ”
"Lord Jorgosi, do you want me to take someone to investigate?"
Hearing this, the warrior glanced at the emblem of the Lother God Cult above the venue, and said softly.
"No, although the Rother Cult controls the people of the Imperial Capital, there is no longer its power in the major provinces outside the Imperial Capital, so there is no need to worry, our biggest opponents now are Duke Leto and Princess Philina. Although the strength of Taoism does not seem to be as strong as our Moroni Sect, it is also an opponent to be reckoned with."
After a pause, Jorgosi continued,
"As for Duke Leto's side, you have to hurry up and infiltrate me, I want to know which sect he is cooperating with, after the Taoist trouble a few days ago, the whirlpool of the imperial capital has become more and more crazy, and we must have all the information of the opponent. ”
"Yes!"
The warrior's body shook slightly, and then he said respectfully.
Time passed quickly, and the major sects were all in place, and the Imperial Duke Leto, the Grand Prince Aserth, and the eldest princess, Her Royal Highness Filina, also came together.
Although their faces were full of bright and warm smiles, everyone knew in their hearts that hidden under the smiles was the bottomless city and murderous machine.
"The state religion of the Auckland Empire, Pope Dalbaatar of the Rothor God Cult, has arrived!"
Suddenly, a shout rang out.
"Da, da, da"
I could only hear the sound of crisp footsteps, and behind the onlookers, at the entrance of the main square in the center of the imperial capital, several figures came slowly.
At the head were six honor magicians, who solemnly opened the way for those behind them.
They were followed by three figures dressed in white robes of gold silk, who were the chief warrior of the Cult of Lothor, the chief magician, and the guardian they guarded.
Pope of the Cult of Lothor.
Pope of the Oakland Empire, His Majesty Darbaatar!
