Chapter 410: The World Shakes! (I)
On a midsummer night in July 341 of the Glory Calendar, a plague of monsters appeared all over the world at the same time, as if it had been agreed, making countless people tremble, and the impact and destruction caused were incalculable. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Odin Continent, Muir Continent, Carthage Continent, Fliga Continent, Abraham Continent, countless destroyed cities, the fire burned half of the sky, at least millions of people were killed by monsters, the lord's reinforcements were exhausted, fortunately, the number of monsters continued to increase only lasted for half an hour, although the number was terrifying, but it was not to the point of despair.
After several days of purging, the monsters that came to the offense were wiped out, and many monsters fled into the mountains and forests, unable to be chased and killed.
The mutation of one night stunned all the forces, and countless spies frantically probed the situation.
Finally, from the Holy See, the truth came out that shocked the listeners.
Eden, the holy place that represents the theocracy of the Holy See, has been destroyed!
Even the Pope and the Patriarch died for it!
The name "Destroyer of the Holy Land", "Demon", and "Blasphemer" Ivo Harriken spread with a terrifying speed, and within a few days, it left a deep impression on the hearts of countless people
His past is also known to more people, but neither the Hokuriku Golden Cross nobles nor the former archdeacon of the Holy See can compare to the notoriety after destroying the Holy Land.
The transcendent status of the Holy See was smashed to pieces by Ivo overnight.
How crazy it is!
This name has become synonymous with horror and ominousness, and even the bard does not dare to make music about him, and the mere mention of his name can make people frightened, more terrifying than any heresy.
The new Pope del Passani gave a gag order, did not disclose the details of the night, and was destroyed without any defense, which was a humiliation for the entire Holy See, whose position had plummeted, and he could not let it deteriorate.
Rao is like this, and various versions of rumors are still circulating, and there are even speculations close to the truth.
Of course, there is also a special misunderstanding, the blame for the monster wreaking havoc, also blamed on Ivo, rumors that Ivo is the culprit who released the monster, the pope and the patriarch in order to stop him, so he died, this statement is the most recognized, and at the same time makes them afraid of Ivo's strength, famous for his murder.
The Holy See, which suffered a big loss, released a sky-high bounty for Ivo, but no one was willing to accept it, and even the Holy See couldn't stop the great heresy, those bounty hunters and mercenaries didn't dare to send them to death at all, and no matter how much money they had, they would have to spend their lives.
In the eyes of countless civilians, Ivo is no longer represented by the word "heresy", he is the king of heresy, the source of disaster, the embodiment of fear, and not a human being anyway.
......
Three days after the destruction of the Holy Land, the embarrassed clerical hierarchy finally met in a cramped stone hut that had been improvised to be built.
The atmosphere of the nearly 100 high-ranking members of the Holy See was silent and sad, and their mood was very low, especially when they could see the outline of the ruins of the Holy Land that was scorched black and still emitting black smoke through the window, they were even more sad.
The Holy See has never suffered such a big loss for hundreds of years, the historic holy place was destroyed in one fell swoop, the papal patriarch died unexpectedly, and the murderer left calmly, no one could stop it.
All the members of the Holy See, who regarded Ivo as their greatest enemy, were eager to crush him to ashes and share his life.
Ivo's ranking in the order of adjudication was forever fixed at the first place, and there was no objection from the whole Church.
There are so many things to discuss in today's meeting, but there are only three most important ones, the succession of the pope and the patriarch, the plan of revenge, and the reconstruction of the Holy Land.
"The Pope and the Patriarch have been buried. The upper echelons of the sacrament broke the silence.
Del Passani said in a deep voice: "The two leaders have done their duty, so be silent. He bowed his head in silence, and everyone followed suit, as is the usual etiquette.
Ten minutes later, when the silence ended, Del Pasani raised his head and said: "St. John and St. Landau, excellent leaders, although a little disrespectful, they have long passed away, in this sad time, the Holy See needs a new leader, I believe that I can restore the former glory of the Holy See, after I take over, the hunt for Ivo Harrican will be the first priority." ”
The higher-ups nodded their heads, but no one refuted.
Benedicto was silent, and after all these things, he knew that del Passani's papacy was unshakable, so he no longer fought for it, and the whole conservative faction followed his silence and remained silent.
There was no objection from the audience, Del Passani nodded, and said with a straight face: "Since you are willing to believe me, I will not let you down." ”
The radicals stood up for the first time and shouted, "See His Majesty the Pope!"
Other high-level officials also had to express their stance slowly.
"Trouble the bishop of the forge, forge a new papal token. Del Passani said.
Everyone was in a lost mood, when they saw the bodies of the two, they found that the Holy See token was missing, it must have been taken away by Ivo, the Holy See token has been passed down for hundreds of years, and it fell into the hands of heretics, everyone is angry and helpless, especially Del Passani, not only is the holy place that should have belonged to him gone, but even the pope's token has been snatched away, he is the only new pope in history who has taken over orally, how unhappy he is in his heart, he doesn't have to think about it.
"What about the Patriarch?"
The top brass looked at each other.
Among the high-ranking priests who were listening in the corner of the room, Canaan's face moved slightly, and he took a step forward, and it seemed to him that Del Passani would inevitably propose that he become patriarch.
Del Pasani glanced at him and said respectfully to an old white-clothed priest, "Archpriest Gelaud, I think you should be the most suitable person to take over as patriarch. ”
Gelaud was very calm, he was the oldest of the white-clad priests, and he was also the head of the theocratic system after the death of the Patriarch, so it stands to reason that he was the most qualified person to succeed the Patriarch.
"Okay. Gerald nodded.
"With the two of us, the Holy See will surely regain its glory. Del Passani politely said.
The high-level officials looked at Del Pasani a lot more pleasing to the eyes, and their sense of identification with the new pope increased, they were originally worried that Del Parsani's successor to the pope would monopolize power, but it seems that he did not have this idea, if Del Passani proposed a new person to become the patriarch, his status in the hearts of the high-level people would be greatly reduced.
Canaan trembled with anger, he couldn't believe that he had been abandoned like this, for the sake of the patriarch's position, he was willing to become someone else's lackey as the son of God, in exchange for only a bamboo basket to draw water?
Del Pasani suddenly said, "Since you have taken over as the patriarch, I recommend a good candidate to take over as the white-clothed high priest. ”
"You say. ”
"God Son Canaan, he's a good candidate. ”
Gelaud stroked his beard, "I've heard a little about him, and I trust your judgment. "Del Passani proposed that he become the Patriarch, and he would naturally sell this face.
In a few words, Canaan jumped from a high-ranking priest to a high-level, white-clothed priest.
Canaan's anger subsided, his mood was mixed, he felt so pathetic, like a pet dog that eats a bone and forgets its anger, even if he is angry at Del Pasani's treachery, he is still appeased.
Faced with the arrangement of a group of big people, Canaan could not afford to refute it.
