Chapter 147: The Holy Woman of the Holy See, Evangeline

Just when the Grand Prince Flonazor and his younger brother Bukred each led their supporters to confront each other and were about to break out into a big war, outside the Imperial City of Duron, the attendant warrior of Belchem the Apocalypse, on the way back to the unconscious Princess Vitasia, met a high-ranking member of the Holy See that he had not expected in any way!

There is a very special existence in the Holy See of the Apocalypse, and that is the Holy Woman of the Holy See, the Chaste One who dedicates everything to the God of Light!

The Holy Maiden has a noble duty, and she is responsible for lighting and guarding the sacred fire of the Temple of Light. This duty is noble because even the Pope and the Divine Envoy are not qualified to light the divine fire, only a saint who has remained chaste all her life, has not been impregnated by any worldly stain, and has no blemish can be ignited. Although within the Holy See, the Holy Maiden is not in charge of any authority, and she seems to be just a figure with no real power. But because of his high reputation, almost all the soldiers of the Holy See revered and supported, and even overpowered the Pope in some cases.

This is also a kind of capital and invisible strength, if the woman who is the saint is not in love with the stack of rights, then everything will be happy. But if the Holy Maiden is keen on power, then she can use this influence to have a great say in the Holy See, and everything varies from person to person.

Unless she dies of old age, sickness, or violates the rules of the canon and loses her virginity, the saint is for life, and only when she is dying, the previous generation of the saint will choose the next saint from among the many candidate goddesses of the Holy See. Three years ago, the old saint died, and Evangeline became the lucky one and inherited the position of the saint.

Unlike the last old saint's indifference and indifference to the world, Evangeline is full of ambition under the cover of her holy and pure beautiful face. The Divine Fire Sanctuary in Guangming Mountain was boring, and the former rivals around her, who had failed to compete and could only exist as maids serving her, had now changed their faces and were extremely flattering to her one by one. After spending the first days of vanity, Evangeline began to get bored.

** The performance is nothing but vanity, sex and power. The vanity has been satisfied, ** can't vent, and naturally all her energy turns to the desire for power!

There is no doubt that the plate of power is so big, and if the saint suddenly joins the game of thrones, she will definitely suffer from the collective resistance of others. In the first few times, Evangeline suffered a crushing defeat, and was even ridiculed by the patriarchs of the Holy See with extreme contempt -- ordinary papal personnel would revere the holy woman, but the papal patriarchs were all veterans, old foxes, and of course they would not take a newly succeeded saintess in their eyes.

After her initial loss, Evangeline quickly realized she had rushed it. She is now just a false name, and she does not have the qualifications and excuses to reach out to real rights. Then the most important thing is to establish one's own authority, and then find a certain breakthrough point, first seize a certain right, and then develop and strengthen one's own strength little by little.

It has to be said that Evangeline is a natural wise man and conspirator, she quickly found a breakthrough, and with this, launched a huge purge and punishment within the Holy See.

We know that before Evangeline was elected a saint, there were nearly 1,000 women priests who had the same candidacy as her. There was only one position, and after being occupied by Evangeline, the other girls faced a very embarrassing situation. According to the precepts of the Holy Goddess Temple, those unsuccessful girls still have the priesthood, but they can only stay in the [Holy Goddess Temple] for another three years. After three years, they had to leave the Bright Mountain to work as shepherds or nuns in the branches of the various secular kingdoms, and at that time they could also choose a partner, and the requirements for their chastity were no longer strict. Of course, if these women can be combined with the male senators of the upper echelons of the Holy See or the new male clergy before leaving the Bright Mountain and become their wives, they can stay on the Bright Mountain, which is naturally a good result.

But we all know that those high senatorial families and their sons are no different from most secular nobles, and in order to consolidate their interests, they marry each other and maintain the rights of that circle. There are very few unsuccessful saints who can turn a chicken into a phoenix overnight, and more girls will be deceived, and after giving their bodies, they will not get anything in return, and it is good to be able to become the lover of a certain patriarch.

Over time, the reputation of the Holy Goddess in the Holy See was really not good, and few of the women there were able to maintain their chastity for three years after the election of a new saint. Under all kinds of coercion and temptation, either voluntarily or forced, these women have simply become tools for the men of the Holy See to play with, and Evangeline came out of them, she naturally knows all these dirty deeds, if she loses, it will inevitably be that kind of ending, and therefore she hates it deeply, extremely disgusting, and it is logical to use this as a breakthrough point!

The Holy Maiden of the Holy See has her own team of guards, although there are only a hundred escort warriors, but all of them are phantom warriors. Moreover, most of these phantom armor warriors have no backstage, and they are excellent clergy selected from various branch halls. They are characterized by outstanding ability, and their shortcomings are that they are somewhat rebellious...... Or rather, they don't look down on those old sons and daughters who have entered high positions by virtue of their relationships. If they do not accept the co-optation of the patriarchs, then they will naturally be thrown into the temple of the Holy Goddess, which is dull and boring, with almost no chance of gaining merit, and dies here every year.

Evangeline's identity is dictated by her identity, first gaining the allegiance of these people, and then after confirming that these people can be trusted, she begins her ambitious plot ............!

Naturally, the unsuccessful saints were not all willing to be played by the men of the Senate, and some of them would also rebel, and when no one would usually pay attention, the ending would still be defiled. But a certain girl was lucky, when she was about to be raped by an old son, Evangeline and her own guards appeared and arrested the child directly.

Always arrogant and arrogant, that kid was not afraid, and even disrespectful to Evangeline with mockery. At that time, there were a lot of people around who watched the excitement, and they were all used to seeing the patriarch's children playing with the failed saintess, and they felt that the saintess of Evangeline would scold a few words at most, and they couldn't do anything at all. But they soon found out that they were wrong, and they were wrong...... The cruelty of this new saint was beyond their imagination.

The old man who was captured died a terrible death, he was stripped naked, castrated alive, and then nailed his hands and feet to the cross with iron nails, and wailed in pain for three days before dying. In this process, even though the onlookers gasped and showed fear, Evangeline's face did not change at all, and she even watched the entire punishment process without blinking.

Naturally, the matter was uncontrollable, and after learning the news, the patriarchal father of that child led the samurai of his family to the scene as soon as possible. Seeing the tragic condition of his son, he almost went crazy. Perhaps it was the inaction and cowardice of the previous saints, or perhaps they were really arrogant, but this patriarch, with a gust of wind, actually angrily scolded the saint Evangeline, who was kneeling on a gray and inconspicuous animal skin, and then pounced on it and knocked down the cross, and was about to free his son. -- In this way, the poor patriarch who lost his mind fell into the abyss completely!

When the alarmed Pope and several Apocalypse also arrived here, they first frowned, and naturally knew the dirty things of those patriarchs, and then saw the Holy Maiden Evangeline, dressed in the most elaborate and solemn Holy Goddess costume, kneeling on a familiar gray fluttering animal skin, with an inconspicuous oil lamp in front of her...... It's already extinguished...... The expressionless man still sat upright. The Pope shook his head and turned away. Several of the Apocalypse sneered and left. That patriarch is looking for death by himself, causing trouble to the family, but he can't blame others.

The Pope and the Apocalypse came and went, and at last the patriarch realized something, and then he saw the dress of the Holy Maiden and the animal skin on which she knelt, and her face was as dead as ashes, and the hand that had been stretched out did not dare to touch her crucifixion son again.

Only during the most solemn ceremonies of worship to the god of light, or when the oracle is respectfully requested, the saint is dressed in this way, and the inconspicuous lamp and the dusty animal skin blanket are the [holy relics] of the temple of the holy goddess, which are given by the gods. The senator called out the lights and insulted the holy woman who was asking for an oracle, this kind of thing that even the Pope would not dare to do, let alone an ordinary member of the Senate?

He tried to beg for mercy, but unfortunately no one expected the cruelty and ruthlessness of the new saint. Evangeline continued to sit still, silently chanting the Divine Grace incantation. Baroque was right, there were gods in this world, and a divine light descended and fell on Evangeline's head. Everyone immediately threw themselves on the ground and expressed their fear of God's grace.

When the divine light disappeared, the only person who explained the oracle was the saint herself. Evangeline smiled faintly, she knew that she had obtained the rights and the plan was half the success!

The sons and daughters of the clergy who had defiled the Holy Goddess were crucified and died three days later. And the patriarch and all the members of his family were also arrested by the black-clothed warriors of the Holy See Inquisition, who arrived at this time. Evangeline declared them blasphemous and unforgivable...... In the end, they were all hanged in the back mountain!

A patriarchal family, with nearly 100 men and women, regardless of age, was ruthlessly wiped out by Evangeline who spit out a few words lightly. This incident shook the entire Holy See, and everyone suddenly realized the horror of the Holy Maiden. Evangeline's authority was naturally erected!

This matter is not over, Evangeline is as ruthless as ever. She had already asked the oracle and received an answer from the gods, so that not even the Pope nor the mysterious oracle could stop her.

Many of the insulted Saints came to Evangeline to complain, and if the truth was confirmed, there must be a child who was unlucky. Their family did not dare to have the slightest cover-up, and even took the initiative to push the child out...... During that period of time, the execution rack of the Houshan Inquisition was full of corpses.

Finally, the people of the Senate were intimidated by Evangeline's cruel methods and had to give in. They sent a few respected senior patriarchs to talk secretly with the Holy Maiden, and handed over a lot of painful rights before they were let go of the Holy Maiden.

That's how Evangeline got the rights she wanted. Moreover, her authority was established, and she became a force of her own, gaining the support and allegiance of a large number of those who had been suppressed by the Senate in the Holy See. Of course, since then, no one who is not afraid of death has dared to harass the unsuccessful saints.

Naturally, these women have become Evanjelin's most ardent fans! )
