Chapter 395: Calamity Witch
Erin ignored the Pope's slightly inquiring gaze, but took the opportunity to directly propose his intention to leave.
Hearing this, Wendy frowned directly and asked in a deep voice:
"Leave so soon? Did we not entertain well, did we do not do it properly, or did someone offend you? ”
At the end of the day, a hint of anger flashed in Wendy's eyes.
Almost subconsciously, he blamed Erin's sudden departure on the harassment of some people in the Holy See.
In fact, before dawn today, Archbishop Ethan brought a large amount of breakfast to Erin and Gwen's tastes, and in the name of delivering breakfast, he overpassed Wendy's men and met Erin.
Hearing this, Erin shook his head: "Although Archbishop Ethan's words are a bit much, I personally feel that he is not bad. ”
Of course.
No one would hate a person who would send money, land, connections, or even kneel down to beg Arryn to take the initiative to pave the way for the Miracle Group.
Although he was a little cautious.
But if that's all there is to it, Arryn doesn't mind having a little more of them.
Moreover, even if he does not participate in this so-called Vatican Council, will the Holy See not recognize his identity?
Erin had never been very interested in such stinking and long meetings.
After a moment of silence, the Pope nodded and said, "Bishop Ethan's opinion?" I'll go talk to Bishop Ethan later. ”
Obviously, it was a special gift for Gwen's younger brothers.
Erin nodded: "Almost, first, there are too many people outside, I don't want to be watched like a curly-haired baboon, and secondly, after solving those demons that escaped from the seal, the Vatican should not be in any danger for the time being, and there is no point in me continuing to stay here." ”
Except for those precious treasures that were given to Erin and Gwen.
Even, Erin saw several sets of toys for children in it.
I have to say.
Thinking of this, Erin said:
"I'm not interested in this kind of meeting, I won't attend the Vatican Council, if there's anything, just call me directly, in fact, some of the ways proposed by Bishop Ethan in the morning are quite good, if His Majesty the Pope has time, you might as well refer to his opinion."
Less than an hour later, a white helicopter stopped in St. Peter's Square in the Vatican.
As soon as Erin finished speaking, Wendy said a little anxiously:
Followed by.
Soon, the Vatican's buildings grew smaller and smaller in Aylin's sight.
Inside the airport.
After seeing Erin's decision, the Pope no longer stopped him, but said:
"Now there are people outside the Vatican who want to enter the Vatican for pilgrimage, if His Highness Arryn wants to leave, you might as well wait a while, and I will arrange a special plane to send His Highness Arryn to the nearest airport."
Erin looked at the large number of gifts from the Pope and those cardinal archbishops, and smiled at Gwen, "Now we don't have to have a headache, what gifts should we bring to George and them after we go back." ”
After hearing the name Ethan from Erin's mouth again, the Pope's vigilance towards Ethan instantly increased several notches.
Right now.
The Pope was very efficient.
Wendy said this, and the pope on the side also spoke: "After the arrival of His Royal Highness yesterday, our Holy See is quickly confirming the time of the next Vatican Council, but because there are more than 140 countries and regions, a total of more than 2,000 bishops, the time needs to be coordinated, and the fastest time for the meeting will be three days later." ”
As Erin and Gwen were about to board that helicopter.
Next, the helicopter will take Erin and Gwen to the airport, where they will transfer to a direct flight to New York.
After smiling and saying goodbye to several familiar and unfamiliar high-ranking members of the Holy See.
The white helicopter, painted with the Holy See emblem, flew quickly towards the airport amid the screams of countless people outside the Vatican.
"Originally, I wanted to wait for the specific time of the Vatican Council to be determined, and then I told His Highness Arryn, but now it seems that ······"
Archbishop Ethan also specially prepared some commemorative gifts for Erryn with their cardinal archbishops and even the Pope's autograph, so that Arryn could give them away when he returned to New York.
Shaking his head, the Pope continued, "If I can, I hope His Highness Arryn will stay a few more days. ”
Hearing this, Erin's eyes lit up, and he chuckled, "If you can, it would be great." ”
The Pope, Wendy, Ethan, and several cardinal archbishops and high-ranking members of the Holy See that Arryn had never met, came to the square to see off Arryn and the two men.
More than 140 countries and regions, a total of about 2,000 bishops attended the Vatican Council?
After hearing the number of people in this meeting, Erin shook his head decisively.
With the helicopter climbing.
"But the Vatican Council has not yet convened, and we have not yet had time to formally announce your identity to the bishops at the Council?"
······
After confirming Erin's determination to leave.
Refer to Ethan's opinion?
Wendy, who still had a hint of anger flashing in her eyes, was slightly stunned when she heard this, but she was a little untidy.
Instead, the Pope said thoughtfully to Arryn: "Is it because of those people outside?" ”
Erin, who had received a large number of gifts, boarded the white helicopter with Gwen.
It is the Holy See that needs its own identity as an angelic reincarnation to maintain the legitimacy of the Holy See's beliefs, as well as to enhance the presence and social status of the Holy See.
Did he make such a deep impression on Erin's heart after just one meeting?
Instead of Arryn needing each other.
When it comes to human relations, the Archbishop of Ethan is indeed very skillful.
At least, with these gifts, Erin won't have to worry about what to give back to New York.
Hearing this, Gwen also smiled and said, "I'm sure George and Helen will be crazy with joy after receiving these gifts." ”
A souvenir signed by the Pope and Cardinal is a precious gift for any devout believer.
Gwen could even imagine her parents holding these things and showing them off in front of their relatives and friends.
After laughing, Erin looked at the scenery passing by quickly outside the window, and said, "It's a pity, I originally wanted to play in the Vatican and Rome City for a few days, but I didn't expect us to leave before we had much fun." ”
Speaking of this, Erin turned to Gwen and said, "You said that when we get to the airport, should we go to other places?" Is there still more than ten days left until the school holidays? ”
Gwen shook her head when she heard this: "It's better to go back to New York directly, if you don't go back, Helen will go crazy." She's going to work soon, and when the time comes, she can't take a few little ones with no one to take them. ”
"Work? Has the ground inspection been back in operation? ”
Helen works in the New York District Attorney's Office, don't look at Erin every time she goes to Gwen's house, she can always see Helen, but in fact, Helen is usually very busy.
It's just that she gave up a lot of promotion opportunities for the sake of her family.
On the contrary, during the period after the war in New York, she took advantage of the chaos of the judicial system to take a rare long vacation.
But apparently, now this long holiday is over.
"It's not just the ground inspection, most of the departments in New York are back up and running now, in fact, even the schools have been pretty much repaired."
"It's just that there are a lot of school teachers and their relatives who died in the New York War, and they are busy holding funerals during this time, plus there is a lack of teachers, otherwise we would have to go back to class."
Hearing Gwen's description, Erin shrugged his shoulders.
All right.
In this regard, the speed of the New York City government is indeed not bad, at least it is worthy of the title of the world's largest megacity.
But.
What Erin didn't know was that the reason why the New York City government and the federal government were so active in restoring New York's infrastructure and the operation of various departments was not to protect people's livelihoods.
They value New York's economy.
New York is not only the world's largest megacity, but also the economic capital of the Union.
Every day that passed after the Great War in New York.
For the New York municipality, the lost economy is catastrophic.
In order to restore the economy of New York as soon as possible.
The New York City government and the federal government had to mobilize a lot of manpower and material resources to do everything in their power to help New York recover and function again.
······
Half an hour later.
Through the airport's exclusive lane, Erin boarded a special plane to New York with Gwen.
After Erin and Gwen took a nap on the plane, the special plane to New York had already appeared over New York.
Compared to half a month ago.
At this time, New York seemed to have come out of the clouds of war.
Although collapsed buildings can still be seen everywhere, at least the roads on the streets have been cleared again, and even the streets are full of pedestrians than half a month ago.
"Welcome back, boss!"
As soon as he walked out of the airport, Erin met Fregel, who had come to greet him.
Looking at the smile on Fregel's face, and his seemingly radiant face, Erin raised an eyebrow and said, "Long time no see, Fregel, you seem to be in good spirits." ”
Fregela smiled and said, "Maybe this is how people are in good spirits when they are happy." ”
"Happy event?" Hearing this, Erin looked at Fregela in surprise and said, "Did you find a stepmother for Lilith?" ”
"How is that possible?"
Fregel, who was made to smile a little bitterly by Erin's words, said helplessly: "I'm not in a good situation to find another person, the happy thing I'm talking about is that Dr. Banner has made good progress on the Amazon side, and of course, for me, the more important thing is that Lilith's body has finally returned to normal." ”
With Dr. Banner's strength, it was not surprising that Arryn was making good progress on the Amazon side.
After all.
In terms of hand-to-hand combat alone, the Hulk really didn't fear anyone.
No matter how big the python that guards the blood orchid is, in the face of the angry Hulk, it can't escape being beaten in the end.
On the contrary, it was Lilith's physical condition that instantly attracted Erin's attention.
So after hearing that Lilith's body had returned to normal, Arin immediately asked with a grim face, "Has Lilith's body returned to normal?" What's going on? Could it be that all the bad luck in her is gone? ”
What Lilith's body was conditioning, Erin couldn't have known better.
If she didn't get rid of the calamity that was converging on her, Lilith's body would not have been able to return to normal.
Even if Arryn now washed her body with the power of the Light every once in a while, it was only a palliative treatment.
So far, Erin really hasn't been able to completely solve the hidden danger of calamity in Lilith's body.
In the face of Erin's inquiry, Fregel shook his head, "It's not that it's gone, the specific is not clear for a while, let's wait to get out of the car and talk about it, this is not a good place to talk." ”
The airport is full of people.
Although Erin and the others took a special passageway, and there were fewer pedestrians on both sides, it was not very suitable for discussing this topic.
After glancing around the crowd, Erin nodded, and instead of continuing the topic, he discussed something else with Fregel.
Because Fregela brought a lot of bodyguards, although someone in the airport recognized Erin and caused a commotion, they still left the airport without incident.
After leaving the airport.
The bodyguards brought by Fregel drove two black sedans, one behind the other, escorting the extended Lincoln that Erin was riding.
Shortly after leaving the airport, the bodyguards in the car behind Erin contacted Fregel through an internal communication channel.
Soon, a deep voice sounded in Freguerra's headphones.
"Lord Fregel, there's a police car following us since we left the airport, do you think we need to lure him away, or let the Shadow Team ······ him?"
This time, it was not only those bodyguards who came to pick up Erin on the surface, but also an elite team trained by Kiris to follow them secretly.
On the surface, their bodyguards are not suitable for attacking police cars, but the shadow team in the shadows has no scruples.
As long as there is a threat to Erin, even if it is the president of the Federation, the Shadow Squad will dare to send him on his way with one shot.
But.
Before the bodyguard could finish asking Fregel, Gwen, who was sitting next to Erin, rang on his phone, and the bell rang "Jingle Bell".
"It's my mom."
After glancing at the caller ID on the screen, Gwen gestured to Erin and answered the phone.
"Hi Mom, what's wrong, I've arrived in New York and will be home soon."
Helen: "I know you're in New York, and your dad called me just now." ”
Gwen was a little surprised when she heard this, "Dad, how did he know that I was back?" ”
Helen: "Actually, your dad was at the airport and he wanted to take you home, but you didn't seem to see him, well, he should be driving behind you now." Although there are a lot of people at the airport, you better call and comfort your dad, baby, or he will be sad······"
Fregel, who was sitting across from Erin, heard this and quickly sent a message on his mobile phone to the bodyguards in the back row.
Let them cancel the operation against that police car as soon as possible.
