Chapter 572: Coronation of the Pope

Latest website: The Holy Mountain of Karen Riel finally ushered in the pope

election.

If everyone was still hesitating before, which person to choose as the next

pope, but as the events of the past month continue to unfold, Beines has

become the unparalleled candidate.

The first is the downfall of Sibes, and a large number of people in his

faction were sent to jail, suspended and imprisoned, and lost all prestige and

reputation.

In addition, although Odis was able to preserve, its prestige has also been

challenged. Many of the hidden defects were thrown out by the rest of the

Sibis party in the counterattack, making them tired of explaining and sorting

out. In addition, within the holy mountain, surrounded by the Knights of the

Holy Spear, such an assassination incident took place, which also made him

faceless. No matter how hard it is to deal with everyone's questions with

confidence.

In this way, after the two candidates with the highest qualifications and

momentum withdrew, among the remaining candidates, except for Charente, no one

had the corresponding strength and prestige to reach the threshold of the

Pope.

In the Seraph Cathedral on the top of the holy mountain, 163 archbishops, 625

bishops, 234 priests, and 129 paladins gathered together.

They will vote for the next pope.

"Now, voting begins!"

The bishop, wearing a gold-red broad coat, walked up to the stage and knocked

down the small hammer in front of him. The chime sound like jade echoed in the

hall of the church, and then spread to the high dome.

White and intricate and exquisite carvings are all over this church. On the

pillars, window edges, walls, domes, and even on the handrails and guardrails,

angels, wings, shells, waves, branches and leaves, flowers, etc., together

constitute this splendid and magnificent church. .

And when the afternoon sun shines into the room through the colored windows,

you can still see the gradual halo slightly refracted in the air, making

people feel like they are in heaven.

Lorrain Hill was wearing a silver-rimmed black robe nun's dress, standing on

the edge of the hall, watching the quiet and sacred voting scene in the hall,

and feeling the unique solemn atmosphere of the venue.

The clergymen dressed in neat and elegant robes moved forward in sequence and

cast their votes in the transparent glass box.

When the sun was slanting west, under the gaze of many extraordinary people on

the scene, envelopes were opened, revealed, and counted.

In the end, Beines won with 70% of the votes.

Inside the Aquarius Palace, in the small hall on the second floor.

Beines and Lorrainhill sat opposite each other.

"Is your body recovering well? I heard the nun who took care of you said that

I was still sleepy when I saw you recently, and sometimes I can fall asleep

just by sitting in the yard."

"It will probably take a while to fully recover, but it will not have a big

impact. If you concentrate, you will still not fall asleep." Lorrainhill

stroked the hair around her ear with some embarrassment, and said.

"Then take a good rest, don't worry about the academy's assessment. Slightly,

I will give you a good evaluation."

After getting acquainted with Lorrain Hill, Beines joked about the 17-year-old

silver-haired girl in front of him.

"This... uh, thank you Bines." Lorrain Hill couldn't think of any rebuttals

for a while, so she had to obediently accept her kindness.

After chatting with Lorrain Hill for a while, after learning about each

other's recent situation, Beines also began to talk about business.

"According to our recent report from the Frost Rose branch, now the entire

Frost Alliance has been mobilized. A large number of soldiers have begun to

gather at the border, and in the port, a golem has been sent to the steel

warship, ready to Set sail. In the sky of Mozwa, you can see airships rising

into the sky every day."

"They are almost mobilizing their power this time, and they have begun to

mobilize to prepare for the war." Beines said of recent worrisome news.

"I know, I will immediately inform the inside of Crancia, so that they can act

quickly." Knowing that this matter is not a trivial matter, Lorrainhill's

expression also became serious.

"Well, if necessary, we will also send a'team' to support you."

Beines emphasized her voice when she said the word team, which seemed to

indicate that this team was extraordinary.

"Thank you." Lorrain Hill stood up and thanked, then looked at the distant sky

outside the window.

It seems that this war is inevitable.

Silverfinches flew out from the pages of the book, and they would carry these

urgent messages through the laminar clouds and sky, to various places in

Crancia and Wilga, announcing the arrival of this crisis.

Three days later, inside the papal hall.

Beines was sitting in front of the silver mirror, and several nuns behind her

were helping her to dress up, wearing a gold-rimmed red cloak with exquisite

and lifelike wings embroidered on it, and she was still wearing a pure white

robe showing the curve of her figure, with cuffs. And the collar is a complex

and delicate gold leaf pattern.

A slight difference from the previous ones is that the pure white robe is

embroidered with feather patterns with refraction dark threads. When viewed

against the sun, this piece of feather will reflect a faint golden color in

the sun.

When everything was neatly dressed, accompanied by six high-ranking priests,

the new pope slowly walked into the hall of the church.

Today is the coronation ceremony of the Pope.

On both sides of the hall stood neatly high-ranking transcendents in the

church. The scene where thousands of people gathered was extremely quiet at

this moment, watching the pope slowly walking past the crowd.

When Beines boarded the white-lit front desk, the two old priests presided

over on the left and right sides announced in unison that the ceremony had

begun.

First of all, Beines first explained his ideas to all the church leaders

present, as well as the church's reform policy in the future.

She has said this many times recently, but everyone present still applauded

warmly, because it meant that Beines had taken his oath of office.

After that, Beines turned around and faced the back of the high platform. The

huge curtain was slowly pulled open, revealing the great angel statue with a

height of more than 100 meters.

This statue is similar to a relief. Most of the angel's body is sunk in the

stone wall. Her eyes are slightly closed and her hands are open. The three

long and wide wings behind her appear in the stone wall, lifelike.

The angel’s appearance is dignified and beautiful, and the eyelashes under her

eyes are also shown in the fine carvings. Her upper body is leaning forward,

revealing a nice and beautiful body curve, and she is wearing a soft robe,

even if it is stone carving, it can still make people. Feel a lightness and

softness.

This statue ~www.mtlnovel.com~ is said to have been completed by hundreds of

famous engravers shortly after the Battle of Chaos. They spent several years

sculpting it carefully, and then asked the popes and archbishops of the past

to reinforce it. , It has gradually become a symbol of the church.

The benevolent and beautiful angels are sacred and beautiful, so that

countless people are shocked and impressed by this beauty the moment they see

it.

At this moment, Beines knelt down on one knee, put her hand on the stone wall

in front of her, and recited the oath handed down by the popes.

"I will turn into a pure white flame to burn"

"Dispel the haze of confusion"

"Guard the last order of this world"

"No matter how many times"

"From the Darkness"

"From All Evil"

"From all despair and chaos"
