Chapter 181: Ubrei I (2-in-1, Subscription Requested!! )
God bless the island, of course Ma Wei knows what the name represents.
The legendary holy land of Avalon!
The Isle of Mist, where the fourth prince Arthur has been following, did not expect ....
It turned out to be the kingdom of God that survived from the real era?
Merlin, the creator of Avalon, may have an unfamiliar name, but he has been certified by Bhaji to be sure that he is a true god of faith.
"This news, big brother, are you going to tell Arthur?" The source asked.
Ma Wei hesitated: "Not for the time being, Arthur has been looking for Avalon, if you tell him about Avalon's confirmed existence, he will definitely ask us to take him there, and I don't want to expose the Channeling White Candle for the time being." ”
Sooner or later, Arthur had to be informed of Avalon's existence, but not too early.
Mavi made the decision, and the others stopped expressing their opinions, and Badge was amuseful to tell the origin of the last transcendent item, the scale of sin.
"The Scales of Evil, the ticket to the Land of the Dead, is the key to unlocking the Land of the Dead, and until the Age of the Apocalypse, it has been in the hands of the gods who control the Land of the Dead...."
"If it falls into your hands, I'm afraid it's also a part of fate, use it properly, but try not to expose it to Tilde, otherwise she will definitely snatch it," Badge said. ”
"Admission ticket?" Daniel was puzzled: "The goddess of sin, Tilde, can directly open the country of death, why is there such a thing as an admission ticket?" ”
"Because the kingdom of death was originally in the hands of the old gods, and during the sleep of the ancient gods, it was controlled by the gods of faith, which was a matter of the real times, and the old gods who used the scales of sin would put the soul of the deceased at one end of the scale, and put a feather at the other end to weigh the sins carried by the deceased, if the soul was heavier than the feather, the deceased would be thrown into the country of the dead to wander, and if the feather was heavier than the soul, the deceased would be recognized by the old gods....."
"So it sounds like the Old Gods take sin very seriously?" Watson asked, "Aren't the old gods evil?" Why would they throw their sinful souls into the land of death to suffer? ”
Bucky didn't answer Watson's question, and in silence, she flew into Mavey's chest and fell into a deep sleep again.
Watson stood by the fire with some embarrassment, and Holmes comforted him: "Don't take it to heart, what kind of existence the ancient gods are, we need to explore by ourselves, there is only one truth, it will never go wrong." ”
After figuring out the origin of the transcendent items, the next operation was better carried out, and to Ma Wei's regret, none of the transcendent items he had collected so far had anything to do with the Golden Age.
The Golden Age is also the only kingdom of God that Ma Wei has not been able to contact so far.
"Big brother, could it be that the Thousand Changing Mask was left behind by the Golden Gods?" The source asked, looking at the black mask on the table.
"It's possible, but it's not very likely." "The Golden Gods have overthrown the real era, and Badge clearly knows the owner of the mask, and I suspect that the owner of the Mask of Thousand Transformations is actually a friend of Bucky's former friends, such as one of the 13 warriors. ”
If the owner of the Mask of Variants is one of the 13 warriors, it means that the transcendent items collected by Ma Wei really have no connection with the Golden Age.
The Golden Gods, when they first met, the other party caused a lot of trouble to themselves, but now, Ma Wei wants to meet them.
They who created the Golden Law, developed alchemy to the pinnacle, and realized the Datong Society are simply a bright light on the road ahead, and from them, Ma Wei can learn a lot.
After all, the current Ma Wei is also crossing the river by feeling the stones, walking on thin ice.
He needed the help of other people, other gods.
"Let's all go and rest, I have to go to Pope Ubri I early tomorrow morning, and I can't be late."
Sherlock Holmes, Communication, and Daniel got up to leave, and Mavi told Yunia a bedtime story, this time, he told the story of Luffy and his party going to rescue their companions, and Yunia listened very carefully, and only after she fell asleep did Mavi return to his room.
The next day, 9 a.m.
The maid knocked on the door, and Mavi opened his eyes to see two maids coming with breakfast, helping him lay the bed table and open the curtains.
】
The gray light came in, and the whole room was brightened up at once, and the street was still full of fog, and occasionally the sound of carriages passing downstairs could be heard, and Ma Wei took the hot towel from the maid, wiped his face, picked up the newspaper, and drank coffee and began to read.
"Mr. Nicholas, His Highness said that the carriage was prepared downstairs and would leave for St. Paul's Cathedral at 9:30, and he reminded you to pay attention to the time...."
Glancing at the clock on the wall, he noticed that it was just 9 o'clock, and Ma Wei nodded: "Okay, I see." ”
After breakfast, Ma Wei planned to change his clothes, he just lifted the quilt, the maid put the pre-ironed vest and coat on his shoulders, Ma Wei only needed to reach through the sleeve, and he didn't even need to do the buttons and tie himself.
Downstairs, the second prince had been standing at the door for a long time, he was wearing a black suit, dressed very formally, his hair was meticulously combed, he was nervously pacing back and forth in front of the door, and when he saw Ma Wei walking down the stairs slowly, he couldn't help but complain: "Nicholas! Why are you so laid-back! We're going to see the Pope! ”
"The Pope doesn't eat people." Ma Wei said calmly: "Your Highness, you are too nervous. ”
"But the Pope will definitely ask for guilt today!"
The second prince is terrified when he thinks of the attack that took place last night, not for Butters Brev, but for the consequences of the banquet.
In order to prevent prisoners from attacking the nobles and seeking them, the church specially gathered the nobles in the city of Westminster, the purpose was to concentrate on protecting the nobles, and the result was good, the second prince gathered them all with an invitation!
When all the prisoners' targets are gathered, the prisoners will definitely act together!
As a result, the church will not have enough people around the second prince!
Once there is a hole in the defense force, it will inevitably cause casualties!
This is what the second prince is most afraid of.
"Your Highness, although there were casualties last night, the casualties are still within the acceptable range, none of the nobles died at the hands of prisoners, only two unlucky eggs were crushed to death by stones, but this has nothing to do with you!"
"It doesn't matter! The villa isn't mine? ”
"I mean, it's an accident, how can I put all the blame on you?"
"That's just that..."
The second prince's face softened slightly, he knew that this was just Ma Wei's words of comfort, he should be scolded or scolded, and he should be punished or punished.
At 9:30 a.m., the sleepy-eyed Yunia rubbed her eyes with one hand, grabbed a half-eaten doughnut with the other, and came down with a few icing grains on the corner of her mouth, and only half of her breakfast was eaten.
After Eunia, Communication, and Sherlock Holmes gathered, everyone came to the backyard, took two carriages, and left Kensington Palace and hurried to St. Paul's Cathedral, not far away.
It took less than 5 minutes to get from Kensington Palace to St. Paul's Cathedral, and the time required by the Pope was 10 o'clock in the morning, the reason why the second prince asked Ma Wei and a few people to gather at 9:30 was because he was afraid that someone would waste time, even if he came early, it was fine, better than late!
After the last attack, St. Paul's Cathedral was not repaired, and there were many gravel piles on the side of the street, and the colorful glass was also broken, looking embarrassed, less majestic, and more ruined.
The second prince, who had been to St. Paul's Cathedral many times, was extremely familiar with the terrain here, and without the need for a monk to lead the way, he found the staircase to go upstairs, and with Ma Wei and a few people, he found the oracle room in a short time.
The oracle room, as the most intimate place in the church, is the best place to discuss issues, and normally the Pope meets with members of the church such as cardinals and cardinals, but today it is different, Pope Ubrey I is not in the oracle room, but in the dungeon.
After the monk on duty in the oracle room told the second prince the news, the second prince led Mavi and the others back to the first floor, stepped over the collapsed stones, and entered the dungeon under St. Paul's Cathedral.
There was a little moss growing at the bottom of the black walls, the air was wet, the torches were burning, it looked eerie, it looked a little old, it was by no means a building of the last one or two decades, according to the age of St. Paul's Cathedral, the dungeon was at least a few hundred years old.
In the course of going around and around, the Mavi and the others finally found Pope Ubrey I under the leadership of the second prince, a self-proclaimed excellent guide, wearing a white robe with gold stripes and a crown in his hand, holding a scepter, standing in a dungeon to observe the broken hole, and he was surrounded by many church priests and bishops, including Archbishop Brandon and King Rhodes IV.
Seeing the second prince, Rhodes IV made a look and motioned him to stand aside and wait patiently, not to disturb the pope, and the second prince obediently did so, standing honestly against the wall, like a good baby.
Standing and standing, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and there seemed to be something missing beside him....
Turning his head, he saw that Ma Wei, who was supposed to be standing against the wall like him, disappeared, and when he turned around, they had already appeared in the crowd, pushed away the bishop and priest, and quietly came behind the pope under the somewhat confused gaze of everyone.
The Pope, who was observing the entrance of the cave, did not pay attention to the movement behind him, and stroked the broken stone with his fingers, and found that it was stained with some white powder.
The Pope did not understand what white powder was, and was about to turn his head to ask, when he heard someone say:
"This is the material left after the gunpowder burns, mixed with some lime powder, and judging by the rupture, the other side should have used a large dose of explosives."
"Well...," said the Pope, "there are always patrols around St. Paul's Cathedral, who can bring a large dose of gunpowder here?" ”
"Above the dungeon is the garden of St. Paul's Cathedral, with stables in the garden, where the prisoners could hide the gunpowder in batches at the bottom of the wagons and smuggle it into the church, and simply hide it under the hay of the stables and it will not be discovered."
"So, the prisoner is a servant who feeds the horses?"
"It can only be said that the servants are suspicious, but they don't necessarily have a motive to commit crimes, and if the prisoner used magic, then my inference just now cannot be established."
Hearing this, Ubli I turned around and found that there were several more people behind him, and it was Sherlock Holmes who answered his question.
"Mr. Dilloc Holmes, Your Excellency is indeed worthy of your name."
"Your Majesty the Pope has overspoken you."
Ubre I turned around, looked at the arriving Mavi and the others, searched the crowd, found the figure of the second prince, and beckoned to him.
The second prince hurried through the crowd to Ublis I, and said tremblingly, "Your Majesty the Pope ....."
Ubrei I stretched out his palm, pressed it on the top of the second prince's head, and said slowly: "Your Highness, I heard that you were injured in last night's attack?" ”
"One... A little bit of a wound...."
The second prince was a little afraid of Ublis I and did not understand what the pope wanted to do.
"You met Butters Brev last night, didn't you?"
"Yes...."
"His target should be you, Your Highness, but Your Highness is safe and sound now, and I'm curious how you survived Butters Breve's attack?"
Ubli I raised his slightly cloudy eyes and looked at the Mavi and the others, and although the corners of his mouth were smiling, they were chilling.
Of course, the second prince could not answer this question, and he had already been knocked unconscious by Edward at that time.
"At that time, it was the appearance of a maid who attracted Butters Brev's attention." "After the attack, we hid in the secret room of the villa, Butters Breve chased after us, and just when we didn't know what to do, a maid named Irene entered the study and was discovered by Butters Breve.... It was she who bought us time with her life and dragged the witchers to arrive. ”
"Is that really the case?" Ubri I glanced at the second prince.
"It's... That's right...," the second prince said stiffly.
"Oh."
The smile on the corner of Ubley I's mouth gradually disappeared, and his tone suddenly became cold: "But how did I hear that Butters Bref died at your hands?" Your rhetoric is not quite what I have heard. ”
The source shuddered in his heart, peeked around, and found no figure of Freya, and immediately suspected that Freya had betrayed them!
Otherwise....
And how did Ubli I pierce them?
Although he was nervous, there was no flaw on the communication's face, and he glanced at Sherlock Holmes with a fixed face, Daniel with an expressionless face, and Yunia with big eyes and an innocent face with a donut in her hand, and felt that everyone had a big heart.
In other words, everyone has experienced wind and rain and encountered things, and it is impossible to be as shocked as ordinary people.
Ma Wei showed a momentary stunned expression, looked at Ubley I in confusion, and asked suspiciously: "That's the truth, if it wasn't for that maid who bought time with her life, even if the witcher had arrived, we would have died at the hands of Butters Brev....."
"Your Majesty, from whom did you hear a different answer?"
His gaze swept over the faces of Sherlock Holmes and the incoming people, and finally stared at Mavi's eyes, Ublis I and Mavi looked at each other for a few seconds, and a smile appeared on their faces again: "I should have heard it wrong, your words are exactly the same as those of Duke Chevali." ”
