Chapter 354: I like the way you look at me
"Joseph, what are you thinking?"
On the Tower of God's Arrival, the Patriarch finally asked his doubts, and the Pope's decision this morning shocked the entire Holy See, allowing a bad murderer to join the Holy See, and the whole Holy Land was hotly discussed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Pope said in a deep voice: "Do you believe my eyes?"
The Patriarch nodded, "You and I are the only ones in the entire church who have prophetic eyes, and what you see is equal to what I see." ”
"Ivo Harriken the Redeemer, most likely the fateful moment you are talking about......" The Pope recounted the baptismal process, and the Patriarch muttered for a long time with a look of surprise.
He also brought a message from Augusta, that the raven had three eyes. ”
The patriarch's eyes burst into light and he muttered, "It turns out that the Holy See's insistence all along is correct. ”
"The secret of the Twilight Prophecy is very important, we still need to observe, if we can confirm that he is the node of fate, we should tell him all the truth, and do our best to cultivate him. ”
The Patriarch nodded, "Just do as you say." ”
......
The clergy of the Holy See were shocked and repelled by Ivo's accession.
Having become colleagues, they were unable to make a move against Ivo, but their hostility remained the same, and even more intense, turning into disgust.
In just half a day, the news spread throughout the Holy See, including the members of the Holy See who were far away from home who knew all this through the Messenger Badge, and in private the clergy kept protesting and opposing Ivo's accession, but they did not dare to refute the Pope's decision.
The Inquisition was the most resentful, having once seen a large number of Night's Watch die at the hands of Ivo.
An hour after the assembly in the square ended, Ivo was led by the reluctant deacon to the papal presence.
The Advent Tower is the residence of the Pope and the Patriarch, and it is also a symbol of prayer to God.
Along the way, the deacon didn't say a word, and did not hide the look of rejection on his face.
Ivo didn't care, secretly thinking about the pros and cons of joining the Holy See, he didn't know what had changed the Pope's attitude, which made him a little upset and difficult to assess the consequences.
But he would not reject the Pope's kindness and a more protective status out of uncertainty.
The interior of the Holy Land is full of buildings and terrain, but it is very open, and it is common to meet the clergy of the Holy See on the way, who stop and salute Ivo with indifference, rejection, and hostility.
Ivo sighed in his heart, the pope's contrast and high-profile proclamation had made almost all the priests his hidden enemies.
As long as the cardinals and the priesthood of the Holy Word or above do not come to trouble him, and the rest of him does not coax, the hostility of the priests is directly ignored by him.
He had encountered too many enemies, and Ivo had already developed a big heart that could not be frightened.
When he came to the outside of the Divine Presence Tower, the deacon left without saying a word, and did not say anything.
Ivo was stunned for a while, pushed open the door and walked in, a circle of stairs spiraled up, a thousand meters, there were different idols on every other floor, Ivo stood at the bottom and looked up, his face was bitter, how long the hell would he have to climb.
It took almost half an hour to climb before Ivo came to the top of the tower, a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead, the Pope and the Patriarch stayed at the top of the tower, sat opposite each other, closed their eyes and prayed, and the two saw Ivo coming, and opened their eyes to look over.
The Pope was surprised: "There is a floating platform outside, you must not have climbed up?" ”
Ivo smiled and scolded your uncle for not saying it sooner.
The Pope continued: "You are already a member of the Holy See, why don't you change your clothes?"
Ivo spread his hands, "No one sent me clothes. ”
The Pope shook his head helplessly, knowing the clergy's rejection of Ivo, and asked a personal deacon to bring a brand new clerical uniform to Ivo.
The concept of a personal deacon is similar to that of a secretary, and as the head of the Holy See, the Pope has several secretaries, and Ivo becomes one of them.
Changing into a priest's uniform in the compartment, Ivo looked in the mirror and realized that he really felt like a priest.
Returning to the Pope, the Pope smiled: "It looks much more pleasing to the eye." ”
Maintaining a respectful attitude towards the patriarch of the Holy See, Ivo asked, "Your Majesty, what do I need to do?"
"During this time, you can walk around the Holy Land, if I have something to do, I will tell you to do it, and you are free at other times. The Pope spoke in a kind tone.
Ivo nodded, he needed some time to adjust to his new status, and the Pope's arrangement was just what he wanted.
After Ivo left, the patriarch, who was silent next to him, spoke: "This guy is hiding a lot of secrets. ”
The Pope smiled, "Everyone has secrets. ”
"I don't think it's bad, but it will take a little more observation to finalize. ”
......
In a hotel in the outer part of the Holy Land, Luna waits for Ivo.
Aggressively, there was a knock on the door, Luna opened the door, her face was slightly shocked, and Ivo outside the door was actually wearing a priest's robe.
"You ......," Luna looked confused.
"As you can see, I have joined the Holy See. Ivo shook his robe and smiled.
Luna was silent, feeling that the Church's brain was in water.
"I'll probably have to stay in the Holy Land for a while after that. ”
Luna frowned and nodded slowly, indicating that she understood.
Her contract with Ivo was three years, and Luna didn't care what Ivo did, as long as it didn't get out of her sight.
However, Luna still stared at Ivo's priestly robe with strange eyes.
I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out.
......
Ivo stayed in the Holy See for the time being, and for five days he visited the entire Holy Land, the Tower of the Gods, the Courtyard of the Gods, the Inquisition of Heresies, the Altar of the Gods, the Cathedral of Sacrifices, and so on.
The Pope did not look for him once, and the affairs of the personal deacon were easier than Ivo had imagined, and the other deacons, who were also secretaries, frowned at him and ignored him.
It was an honor to be the personal deacons of the Pope, and these deacons had given so much to the Holy See to receive this honor, but Ivo had been on their own side for nothing, and they were unbalanced.
Everywhere he went in the past few days, none of the clergy of the Holy Court gave him a good face, and Ivo felt very relieved every time he saw the unpleasant appearance of the clerical officers.
Haha, don't you think that the Holy See is supreme and very awesome, we are colleagues now, look at what you pretend to be!
On this day, Ivo met Orona by chance.
Orona stared at Ivo with a gloomy face, and said coldly: "Don't be too happy, sooner or later I will kill you." ”
"Anyway, we're colleagues now. Ivo shook his robe, deliberately irritating the other party.
At the mention of this Orona, he became angry, glared at Ivo fiercely, and threw down a cruel sentence, "You can't stay in the Holy Land forever, and the day you leave is the time when you and I fight." ”
Ivo responded in disregard, making Orona angry enough.
After completing Augusta's entrustment, Ivo plans to stay in the Holy See for a month, recuperate and touch the details of the Holy See, and then take Nafi and his friends over, in addition to going to the Sacred Tree City to complete the treasure map.
It is imperative to gain a foothold in the Holy See.
Ivo returned to the Advent Tower, and his personal deacons were on standby in the cubicles, and he was finally given the Pope's errand task to deliver a document to Cardinal Benedicto.
The personal deacon next to him looked at Ivo jealously, this kind of task of running errands for the top of the Holy See is of the greatest benefit, can leave an impression in the hearts of the big people, and is a good opportunity to expand his network, in the past, this kind of task was mostly given to Theon, the chief personal deacon who was most favored by the Pope, but this time Ivo replaced him.
Theon's face was ugly, and his hostility intensified.
