Chapter 378: Holy See

Half a month later.

Somewhere in the midst of a splendid palace of the Vatican.

The white-haired Pope stood alone under a huge cross, his eyes closed, praying silently.

The incomparably pious faith seems to resonate with the huge cross and inspire the power hidden in the cross.

Wisps of white holy light continued to escape from the cross.

Then sprinkled onto the praying figure below.

The pope, who was dressed in a white robe, seemed to be permeated with a holy and holy aura under the light of that holy halo.

"Crunch ~~~"

Suddenly, a slightly piercing sound shattered the holy picture in the temple.

Immediately afterward, the door carved with the angel pattern was pushed open a crack.

It didn't take long for a tall figure to squeeze in through the crack in the door.

After seeing the miraculous picture in the hall, the tall figure who had just squeezed in from behind the door, quickly and lightly took the door engraved with angelic reliefs, tapped a cross on his chest and forehead, and then bent down and knelt down on one knee in the direction of the Pope.

Although it was not the first time he had seen it, every time he saw this picture, he was still deeply shocked by the miraculous scene in front of him.

The tall man who felt his arrival had disturbed this sacred scene, and his heart was full of guilt.

I don't know how long it took.

As the prayer ended, the miraculous scene in the temple slowly dissipated.

And after losing the light of the Holy Light, this golden temple seems to have darkened a lot.

Even the pope, who was full of holiness just now, was now shrouded in the shadow cast by the huge cross.

After exhaling softly, he exhaled a cloudy breath.

The Pope dotted a cross on his chest and forehead before slowly opening his eyes.

Although he didn't look back, the Pope seemed to know very clearly who was standing behind him, and said indifferently: "Wendy, is our little angel here?" ”

After the Pope spoke, Wendy, the tall man who was kneeling on one knee in the doorway, bowed his head and answered:

"An hour ago, His Highness Arryn arrived at Fiumicino Airport by plane, and now he should have set foot on Vatican territory."

"However, His Highness Arryn doesn't seem to want us to know about his arrival, even the identity information used when flying is disguised, if we hadn't been paying attention to His Highness Arryn's whereabouts and deploying a large number of people at the airport, I'm afraid we would have missed this news."

"Archbishop Ethan rushed to the airport himself after learning that His Highness Arryn had arrived at the airport, but according to the information from our people, it seems that Archbishop Ethan and His Excellency Arryn just missed it, and now His Highness Arryn should have set foot on the holy land of the Vatican······"

Hearing this, the Pope's slightly narrowed eyes opened slightly: "Has it already arrived?" ”

The Pope, who did not mention the Archbishop of Ethan, turned slowly, stepped out of the shadow cast by the great cross, and then said to Wendy, who was kneeling on one knee in the doorway:

"Let's go, take me to meet our little angel, after wandering outside for so long, it's time for him to go home·······"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After bowing her head in response, Wendy, who seemed to be full of explosive power, got up from the ground and pushed open the closed door again.

"Crunch ~~~"

By the time the door slammed again, Wendy and the Pope had already left the temple.

And when this empty temple fell into dead silence again, the huge shadow of the cross imprinted on the ground suddenly twisted and swayed.

In the constant distortion, the shadow of the cross seemed to form a strange twisted smile along with the other shadows in the temple.

This moment.

In the huge hall, there seemed to be a strange laughter.

Under that oozing voice.

Even the golden light that spilled through the glass on the hall seemed to suddenly become a little dimmer.

The next second, though.

The huge cross trembled slightly, and then a soft white light dispelled the strange and eerie aura in the hall.

········

As an earthly church, Vatican City, which is completely controlled by the Holy See, is actually not very large.

It can even be said that it is pitiful for a small one.

But it is this city that is not even as large as ordinary villages and towns, but it has a pivotal position in the world.

Even Alexander Peirce, who was once in a high position, had to treat the cardinal who came out of the Holy See with courtesy.

Of course.

In Aylin's opinion, the reason why Alexander Pierce attaches so much importance to the Holy See is that in addition to his countless terrifying followers all over the world, it should be more important to be concerned about the extraordinary power possessed by the Holy See itself.

Although there are not many of them, there are indeed some hidden secrets in this Holy See, which once ruled half the world.

After setting foot on this city with Gwen with a strong religious culture, Erin's eyes were keenly through the crowds of tourists around him, as well as the pilgrims attracted from all over the world, and found many transcendent beings hidden in all corners of the Vatican.

Unlike the transcendents that Erin found before, awakened by the light of the Crimson Moon, and possessed a variety of different abilities.

What Arryn discovered, these transcendents in the Vatican.

There is a similar aura circulating on their bodies.

This aura is more similar to those mages of Kama Taj than the transcendent who suddenly awakened.

"Is this another transcendent cultivation system?"

Arryn, who whispered softly in his heart, was not very surprised by this discovery.

After all, when he happened to meet the Cardinal at Alexander Pierce's house, Arryn realized that there might be an unknown system of supernatural power in the Holy See.

Otherwise.

My own cute maid (Sadako) who hasn't had time to train is not so easy to die.

But that's not surprising.

It would be strange if the Holy See itself did not have some ability to press the bottom of the box with theocracy over the monarchy in the Middle Ages.

Quietly speaking around all the transcendents found after recording them.

Because of the influence of faith since childhood, not long after entering the Vatican, Gwen dragged Erin into the historic St. Peter's Basilica.

As a symbol of the Vatican.

St. Peter's Basilica has a long history and is arguably the largest church in the world.

At its peak, it can even hold nearly 60,000 people praying at the same time.

And it is not only a sacred place in the hearts of many pilgrims, but also a witness to history.

The many treasures of Renaissance art preserved here are enough to amaze anyone who steps into this cathedral.

And the majestic and unique design.

It also made all those who entered St. Peter's Basilica feel their own insignificance, and silently received a spiritual shock.

Invisibly, it gave them a little more awe.

Even faith seems to have become a little more religious.

Well.

Arryn doesn't believe in the so-called God, though.

But this St. Peter's Basilica has inspired Arryn a lot of spiritual powers.

And not long after Erin and Gwen entered St. Peter's Basilica.

The pope, dressed in white robes, was also present in St. Peter's Basilica, escorted by a group of people.

As soon as the pope in white robes appeared, he attracted the attention of countless people.

The Pope, who always has a kind smile on his face, although people can't help but feel cordial and can't help but want to get close to him, but the tall and mighty papal knights guarding around the Pope are very good at blocking the crowd who want to get close and avoid the crowd congestion.

The arrival of the Pope set off a fever that soon caught the attention of Erin and Gwen.

Listen to the chatter coming from the crowd around you.

and the Pope's entourage, which was approaching them.

Gwen pulled Aylin, and then whispered in Ayrin's ear, "You say, the Pope is coming, is it because of us?" But it's clear that we've done a disguise. ”

Because of the madness caused by the discovery of Erin's identity when he traveled around the world before.

Before he set foot in the Vatican this time, Gwen and Erin made some disguises to hide their true appearance.

Even the information used to board the plane was temporary information that Erin had obtained.

Unexpectedly, not long after he and Erin entered the Vatican, the pope, who usually doesn't show up much, appeared.

Could this be a coincidence?

Obviously, neither Erin nor Gwen thought so.

So, after the whisper in his ear, Erin chuckled and said, "Of course it's because of us, although the Vatican is not big, the power that the Holy See has is not small at all." Isn't it normal for us to be found on someone's turf? ”

"After all, strictly speaking, they have been waiting for us for more than half a month, maybe the other party has been waiting for a long time?"

"Ahh

Hearing this, Gwen's eyes widened in surprise.

In that way, it seems to say, since you know that people are in a hurry, why didn't you bring me over earlier.

Without waiting for Erin to answer.

The Pope's entourage, not far away, had already passed through the crowd, and then walked straight in front of Erin.

In the slightly puzzled gazes of the crowd around him.

"Welcome home."

The white-haired Pope had a kind smile on his face, and then opened his arms to Erin.

Looking at the Pope with open arms, as if he wanted to embrace him, Erin shook his head slightly, and then took the initiative to extend a hand.

I'm sorry!

He wasn't in the habit of hugging a bad old man.

Even embracing this bad old man is a great honor in the eyes of countless people.

It seemed to understand what Erin meant.

The kind smile on the Pope's face did not change in the slightest, but in accordance with Erin's meaning, he lowered the hands that wanted to hug Erin slightly, and then held them together on the right hand that Erin stretched out.

"Welcome home, my angel."

········

At the same time as Erin shook hands with the Pope.

The group of knights who were originally guarding the Pope's side bent over with one hand on their chests and expressed their high respect for Arryn.

When this scene fell into the crowd around them.

The crowd that had already attracted all the attention of the Pope and his party suddenly resounded with a commotion.

"Who's that guy with sunglasses? Why would His Holiness be so enthusiastic about him, and why would the papal knights around him salute him? ”

"I don't know, anyway, when the president of a country came to visit the Vatican, I didn't see those papal knights luggage for him."

"Wait, didn't you hear what the Pope just said? Angels, the Pope just said angels! Can't you idiots guess who that person is? ”

"Angel, is he the angel who appeared twice in New York and saved countless people?"

"Nonsense, who else but that angel? I just found out on the Internet, the girl wearing sunglasses next to him is Gwen Stacy, the lover of the little angel. ”

"Huh? How can you tell that a hat and sunglasses are so big that two-thirds of your face is blocked? ”

“·······”

After the Great War of New York, under Tony Stark's revelations, the true identity of that Seraphim has long been no secret.

Although after that, Erin did not appear in the public's field of vision, but under the excavation of countless people, all kinds of information about Erin were still excavated.

Even his girlfriend, Gwen Stacy, was exposed by Erin's classmates.

Most of the tourists who come to St. Peter's Basilica are God's believers.

They were already paying special attention to Erin, an earthly angel, and quickly guessed Arin's identity in the discussion of the surrounding crowd.

"God, I actually saw a living angel······

In the uncontrollable exclamation, the eyes of the surrounding crowd looking at Erin instantly became hot.

Countless fanatical pilgrims to St. Peter's Basilica burst into tears of excitement and rushed over to kiss Arryn's toes.

········

In the midst of the growing noise around them.

The papal knights, who had finished saluting Erin, instantly became nervous.

I am afraid that the crowd around me who are becoming more and more excited will do something irrational under the influence of fanatical emotions.

He also sensed the growing frenzy of the people around him.

Erin's eyebrows froze, and then a powerful spiritual power quickly spread out with Erin's body as the center.

This psychic power, as if it had a strong infectious power, quickly soothed the excitement and mania of the people around him.

It seemed that everyone had cut off their troubles at this moment, and their hearts had gained unprecedented peace.

In an instant, an unprecedented sense of tranquility spread among the surrounding crowd.

In this tranquil atmosphere, many people involuntarily showed a satisfied smile on their faces.

"It's ·······"
