Chapter 17 [Twenty Years Ago]

The liar has to use countless lies to fulfill the first lie.

This is like the current situation of the Holy See, whether it is the brutal murder of those who know, the suppression and surveillance of ordinary people, or the introduction of war, it is all a lie, just to cover up their most fundamental position...... The secret of the power of faith.

If this secret is leaked out and there are big forces operating it, it will definitely be a big killer, and eventually lead the entire Holy See to the abyss of destruction. This is an outcome that the Holy See absolutely does not want to see, so they must stop it and nip this threat in its cradle.

For this lie, I don't know how many people have died in the past twenty years, but these people are the most innocent, especially those who died because of the unilateral provocation of the war by the Byzantine Empire, and I don't know how many wives have been separated and their families have been ruined, and white-haired people have sent black-haired people.

All of this stems from the selfish desires of some people, satisfying the greed in their hearts.

Lin Tao sighed helplessly, is this the truth of this world, the real world?

Drawing the power of faith from ordinary people to improve their own strength, so as to achieve the goal of prospering the Holy See, and transform it into having more believers, there will be more power of faith, is this what the Holy See is planning now?

The current Holy See is not controlled by a group of monks or fighters at all, they have been transformed into politicians......

Perhaps the sages who founded the Holy See hundreds of years ago originally intended to purify the world and shine light on the world, but hundreds of years later it has been distorted into this way. What is even more ironic is that there is a stark contrast between what is preached and what is done, one white and one black, one noble and one despicable.

He nodded to himself, breaking free from his deep thoughts. Lin Tao had a general idea in his heart, and when this time came, he was afraid that he would have to go to many places to take a walk. Otherwise, it would be a fool's dream to rely on the strength of oneself to carry out this plan completely.

Be sure to make good use of this trump card to give the Holy See a heavy blow at the critical moment and send it on its way.

Gandy glanced at Lin Tao's face and saw that he had raised his head again, so he hurriedly said, "This is all about the power of faith." Oh, and also, the power of faith is useless for the improvement of one's own fighting strength, but it can increase one's vitality, vitality, and spiritual power, and the most important thing is that it will be the greatest help when used in battle. ”

Regarding what Gandy said, Lin Tao knew best, because he had witnessed the changes in Gandy after extracting the power of faith from the golden scepter into his body, and it could be said that he was like two people. And he even relied on the power of faith to block his own killing blow, and he didn't die, which can be imagined that the power of faith is strong.

Crucially, this is only the power of faith drawn from the city of Ayibagh alone. You must know that the prayer service is held once a year in every city, and how powerful would it be if all cities were extracted in a year?!

When Lin Tao thought of this, his scalp exploded, and the conclusion was self-evident.

"Anyway, people always have to do things. I don't know about it, but now I know that I can't use it quickly?"

After thinking about all this, Lin Tao's mood was better, and he walked out of the persecution of his ancestors just now.

At this point, he was a little apprehensive and wanted to ask Gandy something, but he seemed to be afraid of bad news. After being stunned, he still gritted his teeth and asked, "Has your Holy See arrested and imprisoned a middle-aged man in the past three or four years, with a slender figure and a modest temperament?"

Gandy was a little confused, and asked strangely, "The Holy See arrests many such people every day, let alone three or four years? Besides, even in the Holy See, I am not in charge of punishment, so how can I know if the middle-aged man you mentioned has been arrested or imprisoned?"

Lin Tao smiled bitterly and patted his forehead, he was indeed a little impatient, but he lost his normal heart, and even forgot about this stubble. However, I believe that any child will not be calm in the face of the possible news of his father's disappearance.

After thinking about it, Lin Tao said: "That man's name is Lin Fangtian, think about it, have you ever seen or heard of such a name." ”

"Lin Fangtian?" Gandy muttered as he read the name in a low voice, and then looked thoughtful, "It seems a little familiar? ”

Lin Tao was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly asked, "When did you hear about it?" Lin Tao couldn't help but be surprised, his father had been missing for so many years, he once thought that he would never find his trace again, or that he had been imprisoned by the Holy See, and what was even more terrifying was that he had encountered an accident, where did he think that he would get his father's whereabouts so easily.

"Well, I don't remember exactly, but I've definitely heard the name. ”

"Think again. Rather, I remind you that he is the father of the son of sin who appeared in your Holy See more than twenty years ago, and at the same time the husband of the saints of that generation. When it came to the words "son of sin" and his mother, Lin Tao's face had a faint sadness that could not be dissolved. The enmity between himself and the Holy See can be said to be endless, and the enmity of killing his mother is not shared.

When Lin Tao said the son of sin and the holy daughter, Gandy suddenly woke up and cried out in surprise, "It was him, that man? Is he back again? Could it be you?" Gandy was halfway through his words, and the expression on his face suddenly turned to horror, and he stretched out his hand to point at Lin Tao, but finally hung down his arm weakly. "I didn't expect this day to come after all, the prophet of the sages is really not wrong, it is here after all......"

Lin Tao frowned slightly, he couldn't figure out why Gandy had such a big reaction, it seemed that he already knew his identity. "To be clear. ”

"Well, as you know, the Holy Lady and the man of our Holy See in the twentieth generation have both fallen in love with each other for the rest of their lives, and even became pregnant. This is intolerable to the Holy See, after all, Jessica, as the Holy Lady of the Holy See, is to serve the Pope with a pure body, and accompany him day and night. But no one expected that things would happen to such a step. After learning that the Holy Maiden was pregnant, neither the Pope, nor the Cardinals nor the Inquisition could tolerate it, and felt that this was a great shame for the Holy See, so they sent Cardinal Yundi Dousheng, who was ranked third that year and ranked second today, to arrest the Holy Maiden. In prison, the Inquisition tortured the saint by all means, and finally purified her by burning her at the stake.

It was a sweet and lovely little girl, who we grew up watching and treating her like a daughter. Who knew that such a scene would happen in the end. ”

Hearing this, Lin Tao's originally clear eyes instantly turned blood-red, and his fists were clenched tightly, feeling angry at the injustice suffered by his mother back then. He sneered, "Joke, is this how you bishops treat your daughters?"

Gandy took a deep look at Lin Tao, sighed, and said, "Whether you believe it or not, we did treat her like a daughter back then." But since she was thrown into the prison of the Inquisition, we have lost contact with her, although it is useless to worry about it, because the Inquisition has always been under the personal management of His Majesty the Pope. As for Jessica's execution, we didn't know about it at the time, and we only learned about it after the fact, but it didn't help anymore. ”

"What a Pope, Your Majesty. Lin Tao snorted coldly, his mother was a saint of the Holy See, and according to the inheritance of the past dynasties, she should have been his wife, but she betrayed him, so she was furious.

"How did the son of sin survive, why did the Holy See not execute this so-called son of sin, and what is the allusion to the son of sin?"

"A year after that incident, we learned that Jessica had given birth to a child in the prison of the Inquisition, and then we used a secret method to move the midwife, and from the outside took a baby who did not live long to replace the son of sin, and then the midwife disappeared with the son of sin. Speaking of which, Gandy already knew the identity of Lin Tao's son of sin, and Lin Tao didn't hide it much. It's just that both sides deliberately avoid the topic.

Lin Tao's eyes were red, he didn't expect that the reason why he was able to survive would be such a twist and turn. One can imagine how helpless and frightened her mother was at that time, and how much she paid to survive to resort to such a trick. If it was as expected, the midwife must have finally found her father Lin Fangtian with herself, and his father gave him a large sum of money to thank her for her efforts. It's just that the world is big, and even if Lin Tao wants to find the midwife of the year to understand his mother's situation at that time, he can't do it. After so many years, the midwife didn't know what had become and where she had gone hiding.

Allusions to the children of sin have long appeared in the texts of the Holy See. It is said that when the children of sin appear, the catastrophe of the Holy See is coming, they will become lifelong opponents, and it will eventually be the sons of sin who will destroy the centuries-old legacy of the Holy See. As for how and how the children of sin appeared, people did not know beforehand, and it was not until after that incident that it was concluded that Jessica's children were the 'children of sin'. Because of this, even if Jessica's crimes were forgiven and she was reduced to an ordinary person, she was afraid that she would be executed, because she was the mother of the son of sin. And the entire upper echelons of the Holy See are very jealous of the children of sin. ”

After hearing all this, Lin Tao exhaled a long breath, he didn't expect the twenty years of hard work to look like this. At this moment, he was buried by a huge hatred in his heart, and he longed to burn down the entire building of the Holy See and kill all the high-ranking members of the Holy See to avenge his mother. It's a pity that what's the use of this? The mother died after all, and even before she died, she worked hard to save him, and even when she died, she couldn't see her own child.

And Lin Tao finally understood why his father would use wine to drown his sorrows for so many years. What else could he do back then? The whereabouts of his lover are unknown, and he begged him to take care of the child. Is it revenge? The opponent is not an ordinary person, but a behemoth like the Holy See, and with Lin Fangtian's strength at that time, there is no one in 10,000 possibility of doing it. Although his heart was full of hatred, he had to endure it, in order to take care of the child, and also to wait for the time to mature.

In Lin Fangtian's words back then, "The child has no mother, and his childhood can no longer be without a father." So I have to endure and raise him, and when he becomes an adult, I will go to Byzantium in person, although I have no regrets about dying. ”
