Volume 2 The Emperor Descends to the World Chapter 184: The New Light of the Covenant Cathedral (II)

The sun is shining, and the morning sun polishes the icicles hanging from the eaves to sparkle like diamonds.

The entire covenant city had been covered in snow for months, and the sun had finally dispelled the gloom, and the people of the covenant city could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, as if the heavens and the earth had changed to a new one, and the air was filled with joy and excitement.

Even, in this still cold winter, the council did not know where to get a flock of pigeons.

This dove, a symbol of holiness and peace, spread its wings in the sunlight and took off from the square in front of the Basilica of the Covenant and subsequently landed on the roof of the church.

The news of the new pope did not seem to have caused a stir in the Western camp, after all, the old pope had gradually decentralised power to São Paulo a long time ago.

Also, after a purge last night, the opposition in St. Paul had already gone to see God.

On the contrary, the news caught several other battalions by surprise.

Even if they didn't receive any notice in advance, they couldn't send people to give gifts and congratulate them. After all, it happened too suddenly.

According to common sense, no matter if the leader of that battalion changes, the other three parties will know the news in advance, and then adjust a series of foreign policies, and then send people to congratulate them.

And São Paulo's succession this time did not give the other three battalions a chance to react at all.

St. Paul was now standing in front of the statue of Christ with outstretched arms, as if embracing freedom and the sky, and above this statue was a transparent glass roof, which had been covered with snow a few days ago, and only today has it been cleared out of a small piece of sunshine, so that it adds a little luster to this statue.

"Pope, your white vestments are ready, and the scepter, crown, and ring are ready." André, who was wearing a somewhat dirty suit and had a smell of blood on his body, stood behind St. Paul, bowed respectfully to St. Paul and said.

"I heard that you personally sent the old speaker away." St. Paul did not look back, looking up at the statue of Christ standing tall and the occasional pigeon flying over the church.

"He has taken care of me for most of my life and promoted me for most of my life, and I just want him to go quietly and without any pain. This is my last tenderness. ”

Andrei took a deep breath, a look of grief appeared on his face, and said in a deep voice.

"Well, may God shine on him forever." São Paulo didn't react much, just closed his eyes and whispered.

"Last night's bloody ......" São Paulo said softly, frowning, as if thinking of something. It's just that before he finished speaking, Andre said directly: "Today's holy light has annihilated yesterday's blood; The white dove flies up from the front of the church to greet the emperor of this world! ”

St. Paul laughed, he had thought that it would be difficult to conquer Andrei. Unexpectedly, this guy is so knowledgeable, but it also saves him a lot of trouble.

"By the way, have you ever thought about entering the Holy See?" São Paulo asked softly.

"Holy See?"

"That's right, I need a cardinal archbishop who will bring a holy fire to devour the infidels of the world!" São Paulo's voice was calm and deadly, like a spear piercing the wall.

It stands to reason that the power of the cardinal archbishop is much larger than that of a council, but the sudden entry into the Holy See still makes Andre have many concerns.

"And what about the council? You should know that the parliament must also be in your hands! Andrei asked hurriedly.

"You are the Speaker, and at the same time my Cardinal; In the same way, I am the Pope, and I still control the Academy. São Paulo turned around, smiled at Andre, patted him on the shoulder and whispered.

Andrei understood, São Paulo wants to be extremely centralized, and all power must be held in his hands! He couldn't practice magic and was obedient, so St. Paul gave him this crucial position!

São Paulo narrowed his eyes and looked at Andre. Andre knew that he had no qualifications to refuse at all, so he could only nod.

Although he gained power, he was not happy. Although the bishop has the power to change the pope and overthrow the pope, he, a bishop who cannot practice magic, cannot make any waves at all under the surveillance of St. Paul.

"Okay, you also prepare, the old bishops will come later, and see me officially become the pope."

About an hour later, the church was solemn and solemn, and the old chant sounded. Then several elderly bishops came to the Cathedral of the Covenant, and under their watchful eyes, the archbishop, dressed in purple, presented St. Paul with a scepter, a crown, and a scepter.

At the same time, there is a white cloak that symbolizes the status of the pope.

St. Paul took the scepter and let the archbishop put on his vestments, and when the ancient chanting stopped, St. Paul put on his vestments, put on the rings and crown, and raised the scepter in his hand!

From this moment on, he went from being the principal of the Divine Court Academy to becoming the pope of the Western Battalion!

Immediately afterwards, he made some rhetoric and appointed André as cardinal. The bishops present had long been dissatisfied with the division of some of the powers of the Council, but now that they saw the means of St. Paul, they knew that all the powers would return to the Holy See, and naturally there was no reason to oppose them.

The whole ceremony went unusually well, after all, the blood of last night was not shed in vain, and there were no locals in this covenant city who dared to directly oppose St. Paul.

As for the traces of the old pope, St. Paul only said that the old pope went to serve God, and as for more details, he did not say. But the bishops present basically knew why the old pope died.

They knew in their hearts that the delegation sent by the East this time was not simple!

"Rest assured, I will beg God to send down a new light that will annihilate all the heathen." As soon as he finished speaking, a voice rang out at the door of the Cathedral of the Covenant.

"The Eastern Camp Xuan'an can come to congratulate the new Pope on his accession to the throne!"

St. Paul frowned, Xuan Anke represents the Eastern Camp after all, and he can only let people invite Xuan Anke in.

But what he didn't expect was that it was not only Xuan Anke who came, but also Kidd who was looking at him with squinted eyes and a sneer, who should have died in that unknown chapel!

And Li Nanshan and Zhao Zheng followed behind the two.

"Old Headmaster Paul, oh no! It's time for Pope São Paulo, congratulations, congratulations. May the Holy See, under your leadership, burn as brightly as last night's fire! Kidd said through gritted teeth.

Both the old Pope and the new Pope of São Paulo made him hate him to the core.

St. Paul's face was gloomy and he did not speak. He understood what Kidd meant by this, that is, to congratulate the Holy See on the fire of the Holy See in the future, and even a weak heretic like him could not be burned to death.

"Congratulations, we have time to speed up the exchange between the East and the West. The Dragon Emperor's old man's codex and books are waiting to come to the Western camp. Li Nanshan said with a slight smile.

"Yes, white is mourning in our East. Also, words like 'emperor' and 'emperor' can't be used indiscriminately, and there is no good end to using these words if you are not strong enough! "Brother Zheng even killed the old Pope, let alone the new Pope, and said directly.

What others said was a bit tactful, but he was directly mocking and provoking in the face!
