To Four Thousand Years Later

"We swear to worship knowledge as we worship light.

"We swear to worship knowledge, like worshiping the light, everyone chanted three times in unison, and the voices surged like waves. At that moment, Leo felt a fierce humming in his skull.

It seems that there are young teeth of plants sprouting from the ground, and the power full of vitality seems to break through all restrictions, and accumulate infinitely upwards. Drape...and gushing out!

…

Under severe pain, Leo tried to reach out and touch the back of his head. But as soon as he raised his hand, Phoenix pressed his shoulders.

"Don't move around. Her hands are as strong as iron pliers, and the indifferent voice rang softly in Leo's ear: "Be patient, it will be fine soon.

Leo subconsciously obeyed Phoenix's words. The severe pain did not last long. Three or four seconds later, at the intersection of the line connecting the top of Leo's head with the tips of his ears, a very faint bright yellow light condensed and burst out instantly.

At that moment, the faint flame like the sun was centered on the back of his head, soaking out like blood overflowing until it covered his body. Leo felt a warm current gushing from the back of his head, the severe pain was quickly erased, and his body that was cold due to tension became warm. As if his whole body had been immersed in a hot spring, his mood quickly calmed down.

The flame started from the chandelier in the middle and spread rapidly towards the surroundings. In the blink of an eye, the dark hall of the Holy See became brightly lit again. Under the warm bright yellow light, everyone felt a strong sense of comfort.

At this moment, Leo discovered that the chandelier above his head had undergone a wonderful change. Originally, those chandeliers were in the shape of double concentric circles, but after turning off the lights and then turning on the lights, they turned into a pattern of eyes gazing down from the sky. The twelve eyes of different sizes and heights stared at him from top to bottom. Leo felt a divine revelation in it. It wasn't until the light came back to the Hall of the See that people began to discuss Jo in whispers. Their gazes at Leo became respectful, and their admiration was endless. "He actually lit up all the candles just after awakening psionic power...

"After all, it is the core member directly recommended by Master Pai Bai, which is very correct...Think about the one recommended by Master Hei Jin, who has now become the council member of Upper Egypt. Before that, he was a pharaoh." I haven't even seen Master Hei Jin before. . But I heard that Lord Pale is the oldest human being in the world, maybe he is not in good health..."

"I remember that the announcement said, this lord is called Leo? The next Solomon Pope?"...Why did the Pope choose such a fat person? "

"Don't talk nonsense. An adult who can perceive Cheng's spiritual power, which one is not outstanding...

Leo could clearly hear the whispers of the people - the

"what is this?"

He couldn't help asking. The unstoppable power and the accompanying mood swings danced in his eyes. Many people in the Hall of Holy See who were looking directly at him subconsciously turned their gazes away, and the eyes of others counterattacked with different colors of brilliance. Leo was extremely familiar with that shocking brilliance.

That is the incredible power of Pope Adrian I!

There are so many people here who have learned to grasp that kind of power?

Also, me too?

"It's called psionic power. The power of the mind," Phoenix replied solemnly. "It used to be the power of a god...it was a gift from the Sun King to mortals thousands of years ago. What is your psionic power?" Leo was a little confused asked.

"Everyone's psychic powers are a little different.

A soft and hoarse voice, reminiscent of a snake, sounded behind Leo: "The characteristics of psionic energy depend on character and desire, and the strength depends on the strength of the heart. There are no two people with exactly the same character and desire. So also There is no one with the exact same psychic power. Leo looked back subconsciously, but saw nothing.

There is nothing behind the throne, and there are no transparent human silhouettes.

The moment Leo felt dazed, a slender hand stretched out from the shadow behind the throne, and pressed his forehead.

At that moment, Leo felt that the power moving in his body subsided instantly, the burning chandelier was also extinguished at the same time, the human silhouette in his eyes, and the ubiquitous whispering voices also disappeared.

This sense of powerlessness lasted until the hand left Leo's forehead and sank into the shadows again, and Leo felt the world became clear again. But the whispering voice did not reach him again, "Don't think too much, you are not Adrian. Your mind is not strong enough, and your spiritual power is not strong enough to change reality. The hoarse voice said with a low smile: "Then So to be able to light a candle, it's just that you are sitting on the throne and have been amplified by me. This is to ensure that you can awaken psionic energy, and remember to control the sense of gap later.

Leo was puzzled, but in the end he just nodded in response. He didn't quite know whether the throne itself was talking to him, or was someone talking to him through the shadow? But in line with the principle of not asking if you can, he still didn't say anything. This night, the fact that he experienced too much. Almost destroyed his entire outlook on life in the past. Now Leo has no idea what he used to consider as common sense is wrong, so he can only stay silent, and obediently sit where he is and listen to his orders. It's like going back to my childhood.

"Your desires are not too strong!, so your psychic powers tend to be gentle and non-aggressive. This is different from Adrian," the hoarse and charming voice continued, "A good news is that Adrian You can now resist An’s condemning gaze. But you still have to be vigilant, and be careful not to be discovered by him that you have awakened psionic powers. Otherwise, you may have another form of danger: “Rebuking the gaze? "

Leo asked immediately, with some thoughts in his mind.

"That's Adrian's naturally awakened psychic power. When he activates the psychic power, all those who want to kill him will have a cardiac arrest if they meet his four eyes. The condition for activation is the meeting of the four eyes. But if they drink The water he gave you is used as a medium, so as long as you have the intention to kill him within seven days, you will die on the spot regardless of the time and place. The voice said something that made Leo feel chills in his heart: "Of course, you can resist his attack now. power up. But when you use psionic resistance, you will also have spiritual fire in your eyes. So it's still the same, don't let him discover that you can resist his abilities...or you may be killed in other ways. "

I understand this. Leo exhaled lightly and nodded.

After removing the veil of the pope's mysterious power, the sense of fear in his heart has also been greatly reduced.

Man, what is the use of my spiritual power?

"Call me Ms. Heijin," the voice said calmly, "Your psychic energy release can make others relax, and it is easier to have positive emotions towards you, such as respect, approval, trust and friendship. Those who have been influenced by you people, you can hear them speak for three hours.

"But you can't control psionic power yet," Phoenix interjected, "so I'll light a white candle for you. Just remember, when you light the white candle, your psionic power will come to life. In the range covered by the fire, except for Adrian Shi, other people will be affected by you."

Hei Jin added: "Whenever you can activate psionic energy without using candles as a medium, I will lift the restriction for you.

...when will that be? "

"At that time, you will naturally know.

She chuckled and disappeared without a trace. The cold feeling that enveloped Leo's heart also disappeared. Phoenix said casually: "Now you should get up. Leo immediately obeyed Phoenix's words and stood up from the seat.

He felt that his vision became blurred again, and the spiritual sense that covered hundreds of meters quickly shrank to eight or nine meters around him, but this distance was enough to guard against assassins.

Phoenix put a ring on the throne after he stood up.

"This is your ring, I will keep it for you," Phoenix noticed his gaze, and said casually, "When you die, it will be buried with you. Go and wait outside the small i door you came from, the ceremony it's over.

Leo nodded obediently, and left slowly in the dark.

For him who can already see all this clearly, this is not a difficult task. It's much simpler than when it came.

After watching Leo go away, Phoenix asked in a low voice, "How is it, Master Asmodeus?"

"The character is harmless. He is a rare good old man, and His Majesty's vision is still so good."

Osmod's voice sounded: "This will not require Furneus to re-correct his mind. It's lucky.

yes. "

Phoenix sighed: "He's lucky.

Then, she shouted loudly: "In the name of justice, wisdom, evil, benevolence, and integrity, others have been waiting for a long time. They didn't see the appearance of Asmodeus, but they just followed Phoenix's words and shouted." : "In the name of justice, wisdom, benevolence, and integrity! "

But this flame is like ordinary fire, and the warm feeling felt by the people around it also disappears. The chandelier returned to the original triple ring style, and people's discussions gradually dispersed, leaving only the next ring lying quietly on the throne. Phoenix picked up the ring, looked up, and waved goodbye... The chandeliers gave her a slight nod.

Like a living thing.
