The old Pope did not let Liang Ke wait long, and before the dim light of the sky turned to pitch black, Flinth's attendant priest arrived, urging the divine envoy to the largest hall in the Dumar Palace to meet His Majesty the Pope. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

With the help of Deborah, Liang Ke changed into the purple robe sent by the attendant, holding the rhino horn dazzling star wooden staff representing the identity of the great priest in his hand, wearing a gray-white flat-topped curled Botong hat on his head, standing in front of the wide dressing mirror and looking left and right, how to look at how he felt that he was not in harmony with this dress, Deborah also frequently squeezed his eyebrows at the person in the mirror, and softly laughed at Liang Ke like a fake doctor, only the attendant on the side uninterestingly touted how powerful the divine envoy was, how the clothes were decent, Liang Ke couldn't help but look back at the fool, and said secretly in his heart: "It turns out that flattery is not all so good!"

It took nearly an hour to walk from Villa Diego, Liang Ke's residence, to His Holiness the Pope's Basilica of Dumar. As the residence and office of the ruler of the entire continent, the magnificence and luxury of the Dumar Sanctuary can be imagined. It is said that this huge palace complex built on a lonely hill is the masterpiece of the fifteenth Pope Dumar, who was named after him after the palace was completed.

Speaking of His Majesty Dumar, the fifteenth Pope, he is the most bizarre existence in the thick canon of the Holy See of Light, his strangeness is strange, this person is more like a fanatic believer in the god of fate, Dennarus, he has a wonderful fate in his life, and he almost suffered any ups and downs, so he sat on the throne of the Pope early.

Dumar was born into a family of ordinary parishioners, the son of a small missionary father and a mother who made a living from brocade weaving. When Dumar was 12 years old, he made a pilgrimage to the Papal Hill with his father, which at that time was far from the momentum and scale it has today, and Dumar met his teacher Glento in a small stone church. There is a feeling between people, and Granto, who was already a priest of worship at that time, was familiar with the chubby little boy Dumar at first sight, and always felt that this child was like himself when he was a child. Granto lost his son in old age, so he left Dumar by his side, and raised and taught him like his own son, day after day, year after year, the child grew up, and the old man grew up, and Granto sat in the pope's chair at the age of sixty, when Dumar was just over thirty years old. After many years of getting along, Dumar's feelings for this righteous father are incomprehensible, and Pope Grento held this child in the palm of his hand, and in his second year in charge of the Holy See, he promoted this righteous son to the position of the God of Light, although such a yao was opposed by many people, but the powerful Glanto smashed the heads of several opponents with his own hands with the scepter in his hand, and such opposition did not exist.

Family fun is always reserved for ordinary people, and in the third year after Granto took office, an unprecedented tide of beasts broke out in the Great Plains of Comnia, and the fierce beasts demonized by the magicians of the underworld swept across the plains, and they were about to enter the hinterland of humans. As the protector of the continent, Pope Grunto personally led the Templars and 800 priests to defend against the tide of beasts, and finally died in a fierce battle with Hobimes, the destroyer of the underworld.

Although humanity won the final victory in that battle, the losses of the Holy See were incalculable, the Pope was killed, less than a tenth of the 800 priests returned to the Holy See Hill alive, and the Templars were almost wiped out. However, there are two sides to everything, although the Holy See suffered a huge loss, but the prestige of the Cult of Light was also pushed to the highest peak of history in an instant, and people who knew how to be grateful began to believe in the Cult of Illuminati, and the number of believers once reached one-sixth of the total population. Among the believers, wealthy businessmen and magnates did not hesitate to donate money and materials, and the Holy See Mountain alone sent more than 500 celebrants to accept gifts.

At the same time, Granto's supporters took advantage of the prestige of the old pope and pushed the Seat of Light, the de facto son of the old pope, Dumar, to the throne of the pope, and the new pope Dumar was only thirty-three years old at the time. After the young pope took office, he found that his qualifications were too shallow, and he was completely unable to intervene in the mastery of the canon, the inheritance of divine arts, or the handling of religious affairs. However, he found that there was one thing he could do: what to do with the mountains of possessions. Dumar put aside those annoying teaching affairs, plunged headlong into the pile of wealth, and led the Voamu Shrine to start a life of spending money like water. The House of Elders and the Lord of the Shrines are also happy that their bosses are not doing their jobs, and those possessions are also gifts from believers, and the real treasures have long been divided among them, and the rest of the money will be tossed with them.

Dumar was able to sit on the chair of the Supreme Infinite at a young age, and in addition to having a good father-in-law, his own ability was also an important factor. Interpersonal communication, language arts, crisis public relations, and the use of power are all his strengths, but in addition to the use of money and control of the overall situation, he also inherited advantages from the old pope. With the help of endless financial resources, it took Dumar twenty years to finally build the most majestic palace in the world on the Papal Hill, and when the palace was completed, he also completely controlled all the rights of the Holy See Hill, so that the golden palace in front of Liang Ke could be named after him.

Flint waited in front of the golden palace gate early, and when he saw Liang Ke coming from a distance, he took five steps down the steps, and then stood still with a smile, waiting for Liang Ke to slowly come to him. Although Liang Ke is young, he can also see that the more than 20 steps from where Flint is standing to his feet are the gap between Flint and himself in his heart, or in other words, the five steps are his status in Flint's heart.

"I've kept Woamu Shrine waiting!"

Liang Ke walked up quickly, saluted and hugged Flint cordially. The calm Fellint admired the young man's proper speech and restrained character, and if it had not been for the Pope's explanation, he would have been willing to make friends with the young oracle, but alas......

"It's okay, it's my job to host VIPs. His Majesty the Pope has taken care of the housekeeping, now let's go inside!"

"Okay, please let Master Flinter lead the way. ”

Liang Ke saw that the hall was more than twenty meters high from floor to ceiling, and in the empty hall, in addition to the stone pillars that the two of them hugged, were magic chandeliers made of white crystal, and the bright light illuminated the golden walls and dome with a layer of gray, and the interior of the hall looked like a sick giant, which made people feel an indescribable sense of depression.

In addition to the huge relief carving of the god of light on the front wall of such a hall, the wide oil paintings on both sides that record the great achievements of the god of light, the most conspicuous decoration is the polya pure wool carpet at the foot of Liang Ke, and the scarlet carpet is woven with advanced techniques such as quick needles, overlapping needles and reverse needles, and the full text of "Praise of Light" is woven in the middle, and the "divine grace" incantation written in the language of God is also interspersed in the middle. Liang Ke guessed that this giant seamless carpet with a length of 100 meters and a width of seven or eight meters would take several years to weave even if 100 skilled craftsmen worked together. As he walked on it, he could clearly feel that the more he walked, the more refreshed he became, and in addition to the effect of the divine grace itself, I am afraid that it was inseparable from the divine blessing of the senior priest on the carpet. Liang Ke felt extravagant when he thought about it, and the high-ranking priests cast spells on a blanket all day long, which was much more arrogant than hiring a big dru to keep a pet.

Passing through the main hall, up the stone stairs to the second floor, and turning the corner of the stairs, you can see the dim light of Abigail's office peeking through two heavy bronze doors. After Fellint asked Liang Ke to stay outside the door, he went in to inform His Majesty the Pope that Liang Ke was inevitably a little apprehensive when he saw the master of this world for the first time, especially since he was pretending to be a god of God, and he didn't know if the old guy inside was familiar with the God of Light, and if he was exposed on the spot, his life would be in danger. He nervously pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the sound inside the door, but unfortunately the Pope's office was so well soundproofed that he couldn't hear any sound at all.

After a while, Flint came out of the door and said to him with a smile, "Your Majesty is invited!"

Liang Ke pulled his cuffs, straightened his mind, and followed Flint into the door, stepping into this office that could decide everything for the first time.

The office left behind by Dumar, the master of spending, was extremely luxurious, a writing desk carved from sea glass was nearly five meters long, and it was placed on a one-meter-high white sandalwood pedestal, so that the person standing below could not see the person behind the desk. There are eight green jade wide-backed chairs placed on both sides of the pedestal, and the backrest, armrests, and even the legs of the chairs are inlaid with various colored gems the size of eggs.

On the left side of Liang Ke, a huge bookcase leans neatly against the wall, displaying rare books that have not been handed down, and on the other side of the wall are open several windows, and the afterglow of the setting sun shines through the colorful crystal glass on the precious carpet. The dark blue carpet was spotlessly cleaned, and in the middle of the carpet was a medium-sized conference table, which appeared to be the place where His Majesty the Pope had summoned his subjects for an impromptu meeting. On the north side of the conference table, there is another round sandalwood pedestal on which a cylindrical object rests, and at the top a flowerpot-like object is covered by a green velvet cloth. Liang Ke didn't know what it was, but he knew very well that since he was in the office and didn't want to show people, it must not be a good thing. He had guessed right, it was the Brenda Phantom Altar that His Majesty monitored the entire Holy See Hill, and what he didn't know was that the pink romance he had had had with Deborah in the carriage had appeared on that altar this afternoon.

Liang Ke was secretly looking at the layout of the room, looking for the best escape route, when a sharp cry suddenly came from his head.

"Thief, thief, thief!"

Liang Ke was startled, and suddenly looked up, only to find that on the bird perch above his head, there was a green-skinned parrot with a length of nearly one meter, shaking its wings irritably, pacing back and forth, pacing and continuing to shout: "Thief!

Liang Ke has seen many rare birds and beasts, but this is the first time he has seen such a beautiful bird. This big bird is emerald green, as if carved out of jade, the feathers of the whole body are glowing green, only the sharp and curved beak and the three crown feathers on the head are pure white, a pair of vermilion eyes are extremely smart, and the words that come out of the mouth are as clear as human speech, which makes people dumbfounded.

Liang Ke felt that the bird's IQ was probably above his own, otherwise it would not have determined that it was a villain who wanted to steal just by looking at it in concealment.
