Chapter 688 (1/2)
Quentin took the oath word by word according to Manda's instructions.
He remembered Akira and the battle with Akira. He sliced Akira's five companions with holy light in front of Akira.
Now Quentin is in the underworld and has little power to fight back in front of Akira. Even if he is cut alive five times, Akira is tolerant enough.
The oath of the Styx river was inviolable. With this heavy insurance, Manda and Odysseus took Quentin to the capital of the holy kingdom of heaven, near holy Lincheng.
Odysseus's positioning of the holy city is very accurate. The reason why he did not enter the city directly is not the deviation caused by the shuttle of the underworld, but Quebec needs to make some preparations.
The first is to walk upright. Quentin can barely walk 20 meters. After 20 meters, he will unconsciously bend down and crawl with his limbs.
This is not a habit that can be easily corrected. It is an instinct developed in more than 90 years. Think about it, the Pope climbed into the cathedral in front of the believers. Such a beautiful picture is completely beyond Manda's imagination.
In addition to walking posture and controlling the tone of his voice, Quentin can't maintain a strong voice for a long time, but if he doesn't control it, his voice sounds like a corpse.
It may take a year to adjust every subtle action and behavior. Manda can't wait. Odysseus grasped several key links, took a day to restore the Pope's look, and sewed a robe for the pope with exquisite clothes.
Odysseus made needle and thread. The scene was a little funny, but his craft was not vague. Even the poet's technology could not be compared with it.
Of course, the poet was not idle. He made a crown and a scepter in Qixing mountain and sent it to Manda with Styx island.
The crown is a little rough. The scepter has no function, but it can be seen in shape.
Odysseus was worried that Quentin would appear so perfunctorily that no one was willing to believe that he was the former Pope.
Quentin disagreed: ”don't waste time on these details. I'm the Pope. No one can change this fact.”
Odysseus sighed, ”I'm afraid there aren't many people who know you in the holy city.”
”Even if only one person knows me, I am also the Pope. Even if no one knows me, I am still the pope!”
Manda was very satisfied with this momentum. He and Odysseus prepared several fixed dialogues for Quentin and practiced almost. Manda hired a carriage and came outside St. Lin.
Entering the city gate, Manda took out Leo's badge when he was a high deacon. As a high deacon, it's very reasonable to bring two attendants around, but unexpectedly, the soldier commander guarding the city gate saw the problem.
The captain of the city gate was originally an official of the Privy Council. Because his words offended the president, he was demoted to be a city guard by the ruling of the magistrate.
He knew Leo. He knew Leo had long been a high deacon.
”What do you want to do with the badge of the holy Archbishop of Romulus?” the captain asked loudly. Manda was trying to make a reasonable explanation. Unexpectedly, Quentin stood directly out of the carriage.
There was a deviation in the plan. Quentin shouldn't have appeared so early, and there was a problem with his lines. Quentin should have said a short self introduction first, but he ignored this link.
He stood on the carriage, looked down at the soldiers guarding the city and said, ”I'm your Pope.”
The scene was quiet for five seconds.
Five seconds later, all the soldiers, all the people who passed the gate laughed.
Quentin looked at the captain and said, ”what's ridiculous?”
”Isn't it ridiculous?” the soldier said in surprise. ”I don't know whether you are crazy or stupid, or an artist who is good at telling jokes.”
”Do you think I'm lying to you?”
”If even you are a liar, I'm afraid there are not enough fools in the world.” the commander said, and the soldiers continued to laugh. After laughing for a moment, their voices stopped suddenly.
Quentin launched the holy light and sliced all the more than a dozen soldiers under the commander.
The commander is a fourth-order divine punishment warrior. He can use the holy light, but he has never seen such a terrible holy light, not even the holy light of Pope Martha.
The frightened onlookers around were preparing to run away. Quebec launched a flow inflammation. Several people trying to escape were instantly burned into fly ash. Other onlookers stayed where they were and dared not move.
”I am your Pope, the real Pope. You may not have seen me for more than 90 years, but at least you have heard my name. Let the chief secretary, the Privy Council, the three ruling councils and the officials of the nine holy ministries come to the cathedral to see me!”
Quentin took away the inflammation, but the onlookers still stood still, and they had not awakened from their fear.
Quentin smiled. He turned to look at Manda. ”You're right. It's really hard to make them obedient.”
Manda said helplessly, ”if you can follow the plan, our situation will not be so embarrassing.”
”I don't think it's embarrassing,” Quentin said of the soldier in the way, and put some sparks gently on his forehead.
Because of the great gap in the ruling grid, the soldier commander never made any resistance until he was burned into a skeleton and still maintained the posture of looking up.
Quentin looked around. ”Do you hear my orders?”
Several brave people replied, ”listen clearly.”
Quentin frowned and said, ”how many people can hear clearly?”
All the people answered, ”listen clearly!”
”Call me your holiness!”
”Hear clearly, your holiness!”
……
The Chief Secretary of state, legnon, was going to the city gate with his armor and guards. Beverly, the president of the Privy Council, stopped legnon's way.
”Where are you going?” Beverly looked only in her early thirties, but she was actually in her twenties.
