Demon King

The conversation of the priests from the surrounding church floated into his ears.

"He is set to fail."

"Waiting for him to leave the Holy Land is his death date."

"The friends of the Heresy Court have gathered hundreds of night watchmen, and there is no way for him to escape."

After being coerced, priests everywhere would write a fierce letter and send it back to the headquarters requesting punishment of the redeemer. This became a strong evidence for judging the failure of the redemption journey. In the eyes of everyone, Ivo could not escape this disaster.

Ivo looked calm, unaware of the malice of the priests.

...

The result of the journey of salvation is judged by the clergy and proceeded with the guarantor's side by side.

Ivo was taken to a magnificent room, seated with seven senior priests, two archbishops on the right side of the church (higher than the city and lower than the governor), and Prometheus Cardinal (projected as a guarantor) Attendance), the three high priests on the theocracy side, and an arbitrator on the adjudication side, this is the person who will judge the result of the redemption journey.

The judging method is a voting system, but it is more demanding. Five or more candidates must agree for the journey of redemption to be considered successful. In other words, if more than two people object, Ivo will fail.

Except for Prometheus, the other six people all looked at Ivo indifferently. Ivo's behavior gave them the answer.

Prometheus sighed and slowly said: "You should not violate the rules."

Ivo shrugged, "The situation has changed. I was in a hurry, and then I got used to it."

The arbitrator snorted coldly, "Hell is heresy, and **** is your destination."

The high priest said solemnly: "Let's start the trial and hand over your chapter of redemption."

Ivo handed it over.

Starting from the left hand side, the Chapter of Redemption was turned around in the hands of the seven. Everyone closed their eyes and felt it for a minute or so. This is the message in the imprint of induction magic. Unsurprisingly, the coerced priests are all there. There was a message in the magical imprint, and the six people outside of Prometheus glanced at Ivo indifferently, their eyes even more disgusting.

The archbishop brought out a stack of letters and said: "These are all complaints from the priest who was coerced by you, can you admit it?"

Ivo nodded, "I admit it."

"Then start voting," the arbitrator said coldly, "lost."

"Failed." "Failed" "Failed"...

Six people in a row, all failed, Prometheus sighed, "Failed."

Opponents, everyone!

Ivo's face was indifferent, as expected.

The high priest slowly said: "The journey of redemption failed. We will let people record the results of the trial. Tomorrow morning, we will gather all the priests in the Holy Land in Marienplatz. The Pope will announce your failure in front of the whole Holy Land."

Ivo nodded calmly, as if confessing his fate, "I see."

The seven people left one after another. The arbitrator glanced at Ivo before he walked away, and sneered: "We will meet soon, but in the black cell of the adjudication house."

Ivo raised his brows. "Do you know Orona?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Tell him, our business is endless."

The arbitrator was stunned, then laughed, gave Ivo a joking look, and left with a smile.

In the eyes of the arbitrator, Ivo was dreaming. Facing his own failure, he still wanted to avenge the night watchman. He decided to let Ivo understand in a few days why some heretics would rather die than be caught. Enter the adjudication office!

...

Tomorrow morning, the news of the Redeemer’s failure was announced in the large court. The priests of the church had known this for a long time, and looked jokingly, looking forward to Ivo's ugly face.

Some angry young priests secretly prepared manpower, unwilling to let Ivo leave unharmed.

Life in the Holy Land is dull and boring, and Ivo's good drama is a rare drama in the eyes of the priest of the church.

Ivo looked like a clown at their mercy.

...

In the dormitory of the cardinal bishop, Del Passani learned of the incident from the deacon, with a "predictable" calm expression on his face, and waved his hand to tell his subordinates not to disturb him. "You don't need to report such trivial matters in the future."

The deacon said with trepidation: "My lord, according to traditional practice, even if the redeemer fails, all priests will attend tomorrow, and the pope will attend."

Del Passani nodded, expressing that he knew, but his mind drifted away. He had long ignored the "not worth mentioning" Ivo, but instead thought of the enemy's first cardinal Benedict Pushkin, the two Already in the same situation, I haven't seen it for a long time, but I have to attend the same event tomorrow.

The Pope and the Patriarchate’s capital is very old, and they already have the intention of changing new people. The open and secret struggles in the church have become more and more fierce. As the big tree on the side of the church, Del Passani is not only preparing to compete for the position of the Pope, but also preparing to support the Patriarch. Competitor, Canaan is his goal. Compared with the radicals he represents, the conservative Benedero is more like a passing away, without the desire to compete.

When Del Passani conceived of the meeting tomorrow, the pope and patriarch, who was on the top of the "God's Tower", the tallest building in the Holy Land, also learned the news.

"Ivo Hurricane, I still remember his name." The pope sighed: "He failed, which is regrettable."

The patriarch shook his head, "We will all be present tomorrow, are you going to be baptized?"

"Only when the journey of redemption is successful or the redeemer asks for arbitration, I, the pope, needs baptism. I heard that today the redeemer confessed to his crimes. He will not ask for arbitration."

"makes sense."

...

Outside the study of the cardinal of the Personnel Office, Samu stood nervously outside the door, waiting for the big man inside to decide his own destiny.

After a full half an hour, a deacon came out, looked at Samu coldly, and said: "The cardinal has decided to reduce your position to a middle priest and stay in the holy place to pray for God. Your position will be replaced by someone else. "

Samu's face was suddenly grayed out. The religious authority had power, and most of the theocracy were ascetics praying to God. Not only was he demoted, he was also sent to the theocracy and lost all his power. It was like a haircut. , Even with his fault, this punishment is still too serious, and there is almost no future or future.

Samu couldn't help asking: "Mr. Deacon, I think my position transfer is too weird. What is going on?"

The deacon looked around and saw that there was no one around, and then whispered: "Your Cardinal has a big opinion of you."

"Why?" Samu asked quickly.

"The cardinal cardinal hates the redeemer, but you carried him back. Your lord has a very bad impression of you." Abandoning these words, the deacon hurriedly left.

Samu had a bitter look. He didn't expect that he was irritated. He glanced at the door of the study aggrievedly, and left with a sigh.

Ivo was arranged to rest in the guest room and was speechless all night.

Early the next morning, the "Awakening Bell" in the Holy Land rang twelve times.

On Marienplatz there was a torrential crowd, all priests of the church. The gorgeous robe of the priest exudes brilliance, like a sea of ​​light. Looking at the sea of ​​people, there is no way to see the edge of the crowd, and it is impossible to count.

Marienplatz is the largest square in the Holy Land. It is paved with white bricks and is smooth and tidy. It seems to have strengthened the magical arts. It is spotless. It has always been a place for large-scale prayer ceremonies and is rarely used. According to tradition, the journey of salvation will be held here.

In the center of the square is an altar-like circular high platform, divided into three steps. The magic is that each step is suspended in the air, not connected to each other, and surrounds the circular high platform overlooking the ground. This is the effect of magic. It just doesn't affect the sight of the people around.

On the first step, there are 33 cardinals and dozens of priests of the Word.

On the second step, there are seven red-robed bishops, five white-robed priests, and three black-robed chief judges.

On the highest platform, two old men stood side by side. One was exquisite and luxurious, wearing a crown, with a kind smile, but could not hide the majesty accumulated over the years; the other was plain white robe, platinum His headband is tied with gray hair, his smile is compassionate and gentle, and he holds a pure white straight scepter in his hand. The top of the scepter is embedded with golden gems. This is the famous white scepter, a symbol of the patriarch!

Pope Saint Joseph!

Patriarch Saint Landau!

The big figures of the entire church, gather together!

Ivo walked slowly, the crowd parted a road, countless indifferent, joking eyes fell on him, the pressure was huge, and the ordinary people were stared at by tens of thousands of people, already shaking hands and feet, but Ivo was indifferent, he has also seen the world. People and wars have gone through dozens of battles, so naturally they will not be frightened by the numbers.

Ivo walked to the high platform ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and looked up at these great church figures who were looking down on him. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly. As long as these people put a light on the back of their heads, this is the Western Sky.

The eyes of the great man in the church were indifferent and hollow, and at a glance, he knew that his mind was not on Ivo. Everyone was thinking about their own affairs and had no interest in Ivo.

People, all together.

The pope’s gentle voice sounded, and he slowly said: "Redeemer, the gods are watching your self-salvation, but you have not found the real way to redeem. There are flaws in your soul, but please don’t be discouraged, forgiving. The gods love any believer. As long as you persist in kindness and fraternity, one day you can find your true self and complete the sublimation and redemption of your soul. Now you are regrettable and have a great future. Here, I can only be very I regret to announce that you..."

At this moment, Ivo, who seemed to have given up a long time ago, suddenly raised his head, with a smile on his mouth, and said every word: "Under the crown of the Pope, I ask for the arbitration of the Baptism!"

The audience was in an uproar!

The eyes of the great figures in the church were suddenly condensed!
