Huh? Are they all real?

At the Pope's signal, the two cardinals boarded the airship to Rodgers City.

This time, they were extremely powerful.

Not only did they bring their own private soldiers, but also called their vassals.

When they looked at it in bits and pieces, their fleet almost covered half of the sky.

The cardinals were all there to see the fleet off.

No matter how wrong they were in private, they still had to act like they were in solidarity in such public occasions.

And this time the other party was really on official business.

Although they all felt that the death of the Patriarch was probably caused by one of their companions

Among the more than ten cardinals, the young bishop who finally stood in the middle from the end retracted his gaze.

He smiled from the bottom of his heart.

The other party did not tell him all the plans, but as far as he knew.

He believed that the other party had a very high chance of success!

So Cardinal Moss would probably not come back.

Although yesterday's hasty entry meant that even if Cardinal Moss introduced him into his faction and designated him as the successor to everything he had, he still couldn't swallow up all of Cardinal Moss's power.

But so what?

He had previously watched the tragic situation of being gradually sidelined, and now even if he swallowed up a part of it, it would be enough for him to gain a foothold.

It's perfect!

Of course, this requires the other party to really succeed!

This made the young Goering narrow his eyes slightly.

It was also at this time that he suddenly noticed another problem-why didn't the Pope come?

In this case, the Pope, as the head of the church, should be present?

With such doubts, Goering waved to a church knight and asked:

"Why is His Holiness not here? Is there any important business?"

The knight belonging to the Pope's direct guard bowed and said:

"His Holiness said he needs to pray to the two majesties, praying that the two cardinals have a smooth trip."

There is no problem with the words, but who believes it.

The Lionheart King has died long ago, and the Storm Goddess has also "died" with the Lionheart King in the Storm Sea.

Neither of them will respond to prayers, or it would be the most terrifying thing if one of them began to respond to prayers.

Because they all know what the church is like now.

This is a serious situation that will definitely be purged!

And they have no means to resist the Supreme.

At least in Goering's opinion, there is no way.

Their power is completely parasitic on the prestige of the Supreme.

So now the church is less and less believing in Storm and Lionheart as it goes up.

The relationship between them is no longer that of believers and the main god. They are enemies, hosts and parasites.

So, what is the Pope doing?

Goering keenly noticed that something was wrong.

While thinking, he smiled at the knight and said:

"That's great."

The knight also bowed his head and smiled and followed him to retreat.

Only Goering was left to think and leave.

——

And in front of the round table.

The Pope paced back and forth in the closed hall in an unusual way.

He looked very anxious.

He was so anxious that even a child could see the problem.

And he kept muttering words that people couldn't understand.

"Why? Why is it gone? Why is it gone?"

"Why is it gone?"

"How can it be gone? And at this time?!"

"Did he find something wrong?"

"No, he is the one who will never leave or give up!"

"What happened?"

His voice became more and more anxious, and his steps became faster and faster.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of something falling behind him.

This made the already tense Pope look back instantly.

On the high steps, the veil that they had put up to cover the goddess's face for who knows how many years ago fell down.

In fact, it is more like a veil than a curtain.

It is not directly covering the statue of the goddess, but blocking the face of the goddess.

It seems that the pope and the executors did not dare to touch the statue of the goddess.

From this point of view, the veil was probably added shortly after the death of the Lionheart.

Otherwise, the church would not be so afraid of the goddess who died in the storm sea.

It is exaggerated to think that it started so early.

Every time I think of this, the pope himself is full of emotion.

The Lionheart is indeed an undisputed great man.

Selfless and noble.

But it seems that because of this, He gave the church too much power and strength that it should not have.

The pope can understand what the king is worried about.

He is worried that after he leaves, the round table, the highest force of the church, may lose control due to problems such as replacement.

So He gave the clergy in the church, who are mainly composed of ordinary people, a means to counterattack.

This is a very good thing, because it was normal to have such concerns in His time. You have to know that the Lionheart King spent his entire life fighting against crazy high-sequence beings.

That is, the King seemed to have underestimated people's hearts and misjudged His charm.

Those who followed Him in the past are still impressed by His charm today, but mortals cannot live to this day.

It only takes one or two hundred years of dormancy and replacement.

The king's goodwill will become a huge constraint, and then the result that He most hopes to avoid will be presented in a completely opposite form.

No one can say that the king is wrong, but fate plays tricks on people.

The scarlet curtain slowly fell from a high place in front of the Pope.

The goddess's eyes fell on this blasphemous land for the first time today after countless years.

At this moment, the Pope almost suffocated.

He tightly grasped the necklace on his chest and stepped back repeatedly.

The lion necklace with seven gems of various colors became his only support at this moment.

He did not believe in the king, but only the king's legacy could be relied on.

What a irony.

He wanted to call his knights and guards, but he could not make any sound.

He could only stare at the statue of the goddess.

It seemed that as long as he opened his mouth, the punishment of the holy spear would fall from the sky.

The crazy panting sound kept ringing in the Pope's ears, and that was the sound he made.

He knew that he was going crazy with fear now.

But he didn't know what else he could do.

He could only stand there in fear and powerlessness.

Fortunately, it seemed that the curtain that was only used to cover the goddess's eyes had fallen down due to disrepair.

Because the goddess still had no reaction as before.

This made the Pope slowly calm down.

Then he sat down on the ground without any image.

It was not until this moment that he realized that his cold sweat had wet all his clothes in such a short time.

After wiping the sweat from his forehead, the Pope did not care to change his clothes and carefully checked the lion necklace on his chest.

Fortunately, the seven gems were still shining.

This meant that the foundation of his power was not shaken.

But at this time, another thing fell down.

It was the dragon-shaped flag hanging high in the hall.

Not only this flag fell down, when the Pope looked at it, the dragon flags hanging in the entire hall fell down.

Only the Pope was left standing there stupidly, at a loss.
