Chapter 287: Pope of Light
Outside the city of El in the Kingdom of Cheng Xi, there was a dense sound of horses' hooves, and a group of messengers with the banners of various countries galloped towards a huge church like a tide.
A vast sound rose from the church and spread in all directions.
"Thank you, Lord God, the Supreme Lord of Light, who has chosen your messenger to bring light to our world"
"Thank you, Lord God, the Lord Light, for your generosity that has saved us from the intrusion of suffering"
"Thank you, Lord God, Bright Supreme, for your love that fills our lives with happiness"
Paul stood under a huge statue with a white robe and a scepter in his hand, with a pious look on his face. Behind them stood Mondstadt, Andre, Alberta, and Jenny.
Countless powers of faith surged over the idol, followed by a circle of divine chakras blooming behind it.
The people standing behind Paul felt the warmth coming from the wheel of God, and their faces were already very reverent.
"Bell"
The crisp bell rang in everyone's minds, and countless believers all subconsciously looked up at the sky. I saw the kingdom of God emerge one after another, like bright stars, competing with the sun for glory during the day.
"Paul"
Voices rolled down from the endless sky, and it was impossible to tell where it came from or which kingdom of God it came from.
Paul looked up at the sky and saluted respectfully: "Welcome to the angels"
"Follow the divine will of our lord and crown Paul as the Pope of Light" The majestic voice resounded through the heavens and the earth, spreading in an instant.
An eight-winged angel fluttered his wings and flew slowly from the kingdom of God. Immediately after that, countless angels appeared in the sky, holding instruments and playing unknown hymns.
Countless believers forgot their words and pricked up their ears one by one to listen to the melody played by the angels.
The paladins and knights of the Judgment standing on both sides of the square bowed down to show respect to the angels.
The eight-winged angel flew in front of Paul, and two seraphims flew behind him. One holds a royal robe and crown, and the other holds a book that exudes an antique atmosphere.
With a smile on his face, the eight-winged angel held the crown in his hand and looked at Paul: "Pope Paul of Light has sprinkled the glory of my lord all over the southwestern kingdoms of the human race, so he canonized him as pope."
As soon as the words fell, the papal robe turned into a ray of light and flew towards Paul, and appeared on him in an instant.
The eight-winged angel placed the crown in his hand on Paul's head, and then took the Book of Light from the hands of another seraphim.
"The Book of Light is compiled by our Lord God of Light, and can communicate with the angels in the endless kingdom of God, I hope the Pope will not live up to my Lord's expectations," the eight-winged angel said solemnly, handing the Book of Light in his hand to Paul.
Paul respectfully accepted the Book of Light and said firmly to the eight-winged angel: "I, Paul, will lead the Church of Light and spread the glory of our Lord to all the heavens and all the worlds."
The eight-winged angel smiled with satisfaction and turned away with the angel behind him.
When the angels returned, the Endless Kingdom faded and then vanished.
Paul stood up straight, his scepter in one hand and the Book of Light in the other. Turn around and look around at the paladins, the Knights of Judgment, the priests, the ascetics, and countless devout believers.
Under the support of the divine wheel, it shows its majesty.
Mondstadt, Andrea, Alberta, and Jenny bowed solemnly to Paul: "See the Pope"
"See the Pope," the paladins, the knights of the Inquisition, the priests, and the ascetics shouted in unison.
The devout believers bowed down: "See the Pope"
The overwhelming sound was like a thunderous explosion, which instantly diffused.
Countless flags were unfurled in the wind, and groups of envoys from various countries galloped in, looking at Paul, who was standing in front of the idol with a scepter and a crown. Hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and the fish rushed in.
"Lucien Homer, the Kingdom Envoy, Meets the Pope"
"Abraham Benne, envoy of the Kingdom of Rock and Wood, meets the Pope"
"Billy Bradford, envoy of the Kingdom of Becky, meets the Pope"
......
There were sounds rising into the sky in his ears, and Jia Changsheng, who had just returned, retracted his gaze. Thinking back to the scene when I met Paul for the first time, I didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, he had become the Pope of Light who dominated the southwest of the human race. Now there is a bright light, and its power is expanding at an incredible rate.
"Don't you want to go down and have a look?" the bright figure appeared beside Jia Changsheng.
Jia Changsheng slowly shook his head at the light: "The Church of Light belongs to Paul, I won't get involved too much"
"I didn't expect that our world has only been in the past month, and the Church of Light has grown to this point," Jia Changsheng sighed at the light.
Without waiting for the light to speak, the dark figure appeared, and his tone was a little sour: "The light is showing my muscles like me"
"The ancient world has been taken over by your dark church, what muscles do I have to shine on," the light replied to the darkness.
The dark lips moved, and then he looked at Jia Changsheng without knowing what he thought: "What does the Lord Master plan to do next?"
"Retreat and do penance, prepare for the opening of that world," Jia Changsheng said to the darkness, his eyes looking through the endless sky.
As soon as his mind moved, he appeared at the junction of the world and chaos. Spread out his hand, and countless rays of light flew out of the chaotic world seeds, gathered in the palm of his hand, and then disappeared.
Light and darkness appeared behind Jia Changsheng, and there was a puzzled look in his eyes: "What is the Lord doing collecting the aura of the gods and demons statues in that world?"
"Through the trip to the ancient world, I thought I understood my own path," Jia Changsheng said slowly to the two of them.
Spread out his hand, and a light swirled in the palm of his hand: "If the world is opened, then I will get rid of the shackles of the world before this"
"So the best way is to go to a world as a mortal in person, go through the whole process from mortal to god, and become a real god," Jia Changsheng said to the darkness and light.
Light and darkness glanced at each other, and a puzzled look appeared: "The world is limited, and the Lord cannot use his true body to go to another world, so this matter needs to be considered in the long run."
"Besides, there are still a lot of things in the world that have not been done, such as the Magic Guild, the Mercenary Guild......" Darkness said to Jia Changsheng.
Jia Changsheng shook his head slowly: "Let's leave these things to them after I return."
"They?" Darkness and Light froze.
Jia Changsheng handed the light in his hand to the darkness and light to watch, and the two of them instantly understood.
Immediately afterwards, Light and Darkness gasped and asked Jia Changsheng: "Could it be that the Lord wants to give birth to all the gods and demons in one go?"
"It's not like that, it's just that their immortal divinity was born, replacing the Chaos Demon God at the beginning of the world," Jia Changsheng said to the light and darkness.
