Wu Xiaode squinted his eyes and looked at the situation around him.

The red scepter lies in the Pope's arms.

The congregation whispered prayers.

It's all Christians, and no one would have thought that anyone would dare to snatch the scepter.

- Actually, I can go up and grab it now.

But the Pope is the agent of the cyclops in the prison of sin, and the cyclops guards the path of death.

Could it be that the Pope just left a mess and left?

Either way, he's sure to make arrangements.

Wu Xiaode was thinking like this, when the Book of the Dead suddenly fell, and a line of small ice crystal characters quickly appeared:

"The scepter is currently in a cursed seal and is not available."

Wu Xiaode scratched his head.

Hell, the scepter is sealed.

Are you afraid of being stolen?

Looks like something else has to be done.

In addition to that-

And a white scepter?

He glanced over the crowd at the church.

It is now the final hour of destruction.

The rest of the entire Holy Sect was crowded here.

If the white scepter hadn't been lost—

It should be here too.

Wu Xiaode's gaze wandered for a while, and he froze in a corner.

The white scepter of this alternate world leaned against a corner, and there was only a dejected bishop beside it.

"Shiro, destroy that scepter in a moment." Wu Xiaode said in a low voice.

"Okay." The white tiger responded.

"Would you like to eat something first?" The white-robed bishop asked.

"What's there?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Some human flesh, marinated — we haven't had access to other grains for a long time." The white-robed bishop said.

"Where did human flesh come from? Is there enough to eat? Wu Xiaode asked with concern.

"All the non-believers in the city have been killed, and those who are not pure believers have been made into cured meat, which can last for a long time." The white-robed bishop grinned.

Wu Xiaode's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a low voice: "They deserve it, this is the end of not believing in religion." ”

"That's right, they can only be eaten." The white-robed bishop said.

"By the way, I have a question - how will a new pope be elected?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"God will choose a new pope."

"How can you tell?"

"He's the strongest of us."

"Really?"

"Yes, the next step will be the competition, and the strongest person must be blessed by God to be eligible for the authority of the Pope."

By this time, the chanting of the congregants had ended.

A bishop shouted: "A kingdom cannot be left without an owner for a day, and the gods must not be left without attendants. ”

"Come on, if you think you're the strongest, stand in the middle of the church and accept the challenge."

The voice fell.

Wu Xiaode lightly slid it and landed on the table in the middle of the church.

"I am God's chosen one, and I will lead you to follow in God's steps and walk God's ways on the earth!"

He said loudly.

Everyone was silent.

A tall priest stepped out of the crowd and said with a serious expression, "Don't make trouble, I am the one chosen by the gods." ”

"Defeat me." Wu Xiaode said.

"Stubborn!" Step by step, the priest walked up to him.

An inexplicable majesty appeared on the priest.

Wu Xiaode had already fought with the cyclops for I don't know how many times, and as soon as this kind of power appeared, he immediately understood.

Yes.

This priest is indeed the chosen one of the cyclops.

But can you back down?

He pulled out the Zhenguo knife at his waist—

"Shattered." The priest spat out.

Bang bang bang!

The long knife shattered into iron filings all over the ground.

This is the sword of the Fuxi Empire!

It just shattered......

"He has divine power in him, he is the one chosen by God!" Someone shouted excitedly.

Wu Xiaode's eyes lit up.

No way.

The Pope is still digging a hole in the real world and waiting for himself.

Either way, we have to get our hands on that red scepter today!

In what way?

Sword intent?

He didn't have a sword, and his sword intent was not controlled, and he didn't belong to the fighting style of the Holy Sect, so it was not easy to be recognized......

A thought came to Wu Xiaode's mind.

Yes.

Actually, it can be like this......

"You must think that if you get this trick of God, you are the right person." Wu Xiaode said.

"Or else?" Priest Shi Shiran said.

"Actually, I also got the power of the gods." Wu Xiaode said.

The priest was stunned, and his face darkened.

"It can't be...... Forget it, I wanted you to die directly, but now you are still holding me back, and I am going to sacrifice your soul to God! He said.

"White." Wu Xiaode said silently.

"I'm here." The white tiger crept in.

Wu Xiaode said: "As soon as I said that the dead are resurrected—"

The white tiger said: "I'll let the ghost go." ”

That's it!

"Do not be angry, we are all servants of God."

Wu Xiaode looked at the priest opposite and said sincerely: "You can break weapons and have strong combat effectiveness, but in the current situation, it is not the time for you to be the Pope, in fact, you are the next Pope." ”

"Next? Are you serious? The priest sneered.

"Yes, because I want to become the Pope first, do the will of the gods, and resurrect my companions." Wu Xiaode said.

All the noise is gone.

The whole church was silent, and a single pin could be heard.

People all looked at Wu Xiaode.

"Resurrection? You're saying that you've gained the power of the resurrectionists? The priest said in surprise.

"Yes, our dead companions will return to us in the will of God." Wu Xiaode said.

The priest said, "You're opening—"

"Resurrection of the dead!" Wu Xiaode read directly.

Suddenly, a man emerged from the void and stood in front of everyone.

He was dressed in a long, crimson robe with a holy emblem on his chest, and his expression was serious, exuding fluctuations of power all over his body.

- Cardinal!

Everyone was stunned.

The priest also had a long mouth, and was speechless for a while.

"I have fallen asleep in the kingdom of death, but God says—you need me." The cardinal said with a smile.

In silence, he saluted everyone and stood beside Wu Xiaode.

"One is not enough, we need more helpers." Wu Xiaode said.

Before the words fell, the void flashed, and another person appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Archbishop!

Everyone was in a hurry.

The archbishop walked up to the priest, patted him on the shoulder and said, "The gods and the faithful need you, but at this moment, it is not yet time for you to become pope. ”

Wu Xiaode was a little surprised.

In this way, this is still an old acquaintance.

It's good, there are acquaintances, it's easy to talk, it's better to convince this priest directly, lest you have to do it later.

After all, he has the power bestowed by the cyclops, and if he dies, in case the cyclops goes berserk, it will not be easy to accept.

The priest stared at the archbishop carefully for a long time, and then suddenly said, "What did you tell me seven years ago, the day I became a priest?" ”

"I said that from now on, I will take care of you and let you learn everything about the Holy Religion, and the Holy Religion is your home." Archbishop said.

The priest sighed, "It's really you." ”

"Of course it's me, and it's not just me." Archbishop said.

He turned around and walked and stood behind Wu Xiaode.

The priest and Wu Xiaode's eyes met.

"I want to become the Pope and gain greater power to help bring back more of the dead." Wu Xiaode said sincerely.

"But according to the oracle, the strongest of us is qualified to become the Pope." The priest was not reconciled.

The crowd suddenly burst into an uproar.

Many people have already knelt down, facing Wu Xiaode, and chanted the classics aloud.

More and more people are joining the bandwagon.

Raise the dead!

If everyone can survive after death, then what is there to be afraid of?

Just go up and fight the monsters!

The priest looked at the crowd around him and sighed to himself.

What's the point of becoming pope yourself if no one supports you?

"As I said before, when I finish the matter of resurrecting the dead, I will directly abdicate later, and then the position of the Pope will naturally be yours, and I will assist you." Wu Xiaode said.

"Really? You see, everybody is listening to your promises. The clergyman said.

Wu Xiaode opened his arms and said to everyone: "I hereby promise that once the resurrection of the dead is completed, I will pass on the position of Pope to him!" Because he's the strongest! ”

Everyone cheered.

In this way, there will be no more contradictions in the Holy Sect!

Everyone can finally come together!

The priest smiled.

Since that's the case, there's nothing to fight about.

"You have such a great mission, then, I want you to complete it." The priest said.

Wu Xiaode nodded.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the current situation is dangerous, and I suggest that the ceremony of the succession of the Pope can begin immediately." A bishop said.

"Yes, the Inheritance Spell requires a total of nine of the most devout cultists to recite the ritual to activate it." Another believer said.

"Not just nine of us, but all of us chanting." The priest took the initiative.

At this moment, he determined his future status, and it was not good to do anything more, but it was the moment to show his demeanor.

He walked up to the Pope's body and joined the procession of chanting incantations.

With the sound of everyone's chanting, the red scepter gradually detached from the Pope's body.

It floats gently, radiating rounds of light in a fixed rhythm.

Lines of small ice crystal letters immediately appeared on the Book of the Dead:

"With the sincere blessings of the faithful, unravel the vicious curse that surrounds the scepter, and awaken the power of the scepter."

"But it has another curse."

"This curse is wrapped around the scepter and will only work under an extremely special circumstance, so don't worry."

"Now you can get it."

And the curse?

But since it's extremely special, don't worry about it.

I'm not special at all.

Wu Xiaode stepped forward and grabbed the scepter.

Meanwhile.

The white tiger pressed lightly on the ground with his paws.

……

On the battlefield outside the city walls.

A dead monster suddenly opened its eyes.

It was confused for a moment, and gradually understood something.

The monster got up from the ground and ran wildly towards the mountains in the distance, and in a short time rushed up the mountain.

In the middle of this mountain, there is a group of powerful monsters that are resting.

There is also a giant snake hundreds of meters long in the col.

"Whew, whew!"

The monster shouted.

The resting serpent slowly opened its eyes.

"Hiss?" The serpent asked, spitting out the letter.

"Whew!" The monster screamed excitedly.

The serpent thought for a moment and began to swim away.

It crawled out of the mountain stream and sped towards the city at the foot of the mountain.

The other monsters weren't as fast, but they were starting to act.
