Chapter 500 The Decision of the Holy See of Light
In the Middle Ages on the earth, countless bloodshed broke out because of religious beliefs. The struggle between kingship and theocracy almost never stopped. The famous Crusades lasted for two hundred years, with millions of casualties. Still going back and forth because they think they're doing the right thing.
This is the power of religion.
But unlike the medieval religions known to earth people, Plandal's religion has very clear rules, especially the Holy See of Light, which is widely worshipped by humans.
The kingship belongs to the kingship, and the divine right belongs to the divine right, and the two do not interfere with each other.
There is such a clear division of powers, because the god of Prandal really exists. Miracles, altars, oracles, and even the descent of gods, etc., all have authentic and credible records. Only then can theocracy and kingship be separated from each other without interfering with each other.
In this case, the Knights Templar of the Holy See of Light, as a unit with extremely good combat effectiveness, the meaning of its existence has been determined from the beginning.
Interference in national politics and involvement in national wars are prohibited.
They can only be dispatched when there is a cult (specifically, a cult that believes in false gods and has clear risk factors), or when a dark force that poses a huge threat to all lives appears.
Just like the last time he went to the underground world to find the holy artifact Yeberni's blessing scriptures, he and the saintess Iluli had to disguise their identities and not act in the name of the Templars.
It is worth mentioning that the so-called dark power does not refer to the dark magic, but refers to those forces that are uncontrollable, corrode human minds, and induce human depravity. Chaos breath is the most typical one.
The reason why it is called the power of darkness is only because humans are accustomed to associating darkness with negative emotions such as anxiety, danger, and fear.
Returning to the topic, now Adrian is very sure that Girard is controlled by dark forces, so it is completely feasible to ask the Holy See of Light for help.
After confirming the plan, the two immediately left the secret room, walked out of the alley wearing hoods, mixed into the crowd on the street, and quietly came to the Cathedral of Light.
Girard's coronation had no effect on the Cathedral of Light, and believers still came here to pray and receive blessings.
After quietly showing identification to the priest, Aubrey and Adrian soon met Jessolini XXIII.
The two simply saluted: "Salute to you, His Majesty the Pope."
"The God of Light protects you, Duke Foel, Duke Beaulet."
Jessolini returned the salute with a smile, and at this moment he almost guessed the purpose of the two of them: "Sit down first."
After sitting down, Aubrey, who was in a hurry, couldn't help but speak: "Your Majesty, I think you should have seen what was announced in the Datang Daily? What do you think?"
really.
Jessolini restrained his smile: "I am the leader of the Holy See of Light, and it stands to reason that I should not criticize the change of kingship, but... You are really sure that Prince Girard has been corrupted by dark forces. Is there anything wrong with him being in the Light on Coronation Day."
Aubrey knocked on the table and said impatiently, "Perhaps he has endured? Maybe it is temporarily suppressed? You may not know, His Royal Highness was already a ninth-rank supreme powerhouse a year ago. It is only one step away from the legendary level, and it is nothing to him to endure the purification of the Holy Light."
"But can you be sure?"
Jessolini's expression was very serious: "You know, if it's just because of an uncertain possibility, letting the Holy See get involved in the struggle for kingship will have a very bad impact. The kingship has always been suppressed by theocracy, which is obviously not what the gods want to see."
Just as Aubrey was about to speak, Adrian interrupted him and said in a deep voice, "Aubrey, don't get excited, His Holiness the Pope must have noticed something, or he wouldn't tell us so much, would he?"
Jessolini was startled and nodded helplessly: "That's right, I know that there are magic props worn by members of the royal family, which will record the scene of death. The identity of the murderer can be directly determined, but the premise is that another person must be found. A direct member of the royal family."
The two looked at each other and said in unison, "Princess Alleria!"
"That's right, Princess Alleria is in Ellington now, as long as you see her, everything will be clear."
Jessolini said slowly: "If it is really certain that Girard has been corrupted by darkness, then the Holy See can justifiably participate. But now that Ellington has declared independence, if our people go to Ellington, they will It’s very troublesome. What’s more, it takes time to get from Alinks to Ellington. Even if it is fully assisted by magic, it will take at least a few days to arrive, which is very time-consuming before and after.”
Iluri and Leon did not tell Jessolini about the teleportation formation.
"I also want to support Ellington. After all, Mr. Dunn is a person recognized by the gods. He can't be evil. If possible, I will send someone out now, and you need to wait patiently for a few days."
Yeberni's Blessed Holy Code and Holy Light Scepter disregarded the identities of Leon and Iluli, and took the initiative to recognize the Lord to him. How could such a person be an evil person?
Aubrey and Adrian looked at each other with surprise on their faces.
They did not expect the Pope to be so optimistic about Dunn!
In this way, many things are much easier to do!
Aubrey smiled smugly and said, "In a few days, we can actually—"
"It won't take that long, we can get to Ellington today!"
At this moment, a crisp sound suddenly came from outside, followed by Iluli and walked into the room.
"Your Majesty."
Jessolini froze for a moment: "What do you mean?"
Iluli closed the door and said, "Lord... Dunn has set up a teleportation array in Alinksbub, which can reach Ellington directly."
Under the long sleeves, she clenched her fists tightly. In the days when she was separated from Tang En, the effect of the bondage contract left by the Goddess of Eternal Darkness became stronger and stronger, making her miss Tang En all the time every day, even dreaming. In the middle are the faces of Dunn. She was almost insane by this feeling, so much that she wanted to secretly run to Ellington to find Dunn.
As a result, the coronation of Gillard happened at this time.
I just passed by here, and when I heard them talking about Tang En, I couldn't help but break in immediately.
"Teleportation Array?"
Jessolini took a breath and said with a shocked expression: "Isn't the technology of the teleportation array lost? When I discussed with His Excellency Jean before, even His Excellency Jean had not been able to restore the technology of the teleportation array. Tang Well he-"
Iluli said a little proudly: "This only shows one thing, Dunn is a more powerful magician than the legendary hero Jean."
"how can that be……"
Even Jessolini couldn't believe it. Unlike Angus, the hand of miracles who was haunted all day long and only existed in the background, the Lord of the Moon and the Stars, Jean, was in the City of Silver, in the Tower of Stars and Moon, leading him. Disciples dig the mysteries of magic, monitor the flow of magic power in the whole world, and work to eliminate the pollution of chaos.
He and Angus are recognized as having reached the pinnacle of human magical power and are unsurpassable legends.
Tang En, although he is favored by the gods, has nothing to do with his talent and strength!
"In fact, Tang En's strength is really unfathomable."
Aubrey said very reluctantly: "Although I have never felt that he is entangled with fields and laws, it is undeniable that his strength is very strong."
"Well, it seems that there is another super strong among us humans, which is really gratifying."
Jessolini nodded and smiled: "If so, what he said would be more credible... Your Majesty, why don't you go to Ellington on behalf of the Holy See of Light? I need your help to make sure The truth of His Majesty Victor's death is related to the countermeasures of our Holy See of Light in the future."
Jessolini subconsciously chose Iluli, who had dealt with Dunn and had a good relationship, and asked the saint to represent the Holy See of Light, which is enough to explain the attitude of the Holy See of Light.
Yiluli was instantly excited, feeling that the golden runes on her neck were faintly heating up, she calmly pulled the silk scarf around her neck, carefully covered the circle of golden runes, and nodded lightly, "Understood. already."
"In this case, it's not too late, let's go, anyway, there is a teleportation array, you can go and return quickly."
The impatient Aubrey couldn't bear it for a long time, and suddenly got up.
The others didn't have any opinion either, and after Iluli went back to the house to clean up a little, she came out again.
Looking at Yiluli, who seemed to be well-dressed, Aubrey had a weird look on her face. I had never heard that the Holy Maiden liked to dress up herself before, and...what's the matter with the silk scarf around her neck?
The Holy Maiden has the Holy Light to protect her body, so is she afraid of the cold?
But whether it was Aubrey or Adrian, neither of them thought about that. Even if they were very optimistic about Tang En, the saint was a saint after all. The saint whose first mission was to serve the gods, although she was not There is no restriction on their marriage, but so far no saint has been married during her tenure.
Yiluli knew that she was so excited because of the power of the contract, but she just couldn't control it, there was nothing she could do.
The most helpless thing for her is that she secretly prayed to the god of light, Yeberni, while no one was there, and asked the gods to help break the contract, and the result...
Yeberni, the god of light, did not respond. Iluli's prayer seemed to be swallowed up by a vortex of darkness, and disappeared without a sound.
why is that?
In the blink of an eye, the three came to Ellington.
