The villain only wants to live a Buddhist life

"Your young master?"

Professor Sylph couldn't help feeling puzzled.

Erin tapped her finger and used [Consonance] to create a projection on the table.

Then that familiar face appeared in front of everyone smiling.

Professor Sylph was stunned, and said, "Didn't Dimon come to watch this rare ceremony?"

She was asking Irene, but she didn't expect Dak to say directly: "I'll be lazy if Irene does it for me. Professor, is it just the three of you?"

Professor Sylph said: "Yes, we mainly came out to relax."

Duck immediately invited: "Then after the ceremony, come and stay at my house for a few days?"

Professor Sylph showed a slight smile: "It's okay to visit your house, but stay for a few days..."

"Of course it's also possible!" Lily squeezed into the screen and winked vigorously at Dak, "Dak Dak, have the textbooks for our cooperation been compiled yet?"

"Not yet. In fact, I only started writing it two days ago." Duck said, "Little Lily needs to supervise it before it can start."

"Then I'm definitely going!" Lily immediately looked at Professor Sylph in high spirits, with a look of "do you hear me?"

Professor Sylph frowned, helplessly: "Then stay for a day or two...no more."

"Okay, okay." Lily agreed.

Anyway, let's live in first, right?

Professor Kazel shook his head, and said from the side: "Dark, you didn't slack off during the holidays, did you?"

Dake leaned back on the sofa subconsciously, and said lazily, "It's still pretty lazy."

Professor Kazel was choked, and couldn't help laughing: "Have you learned [Transformation Curse]?"

"Not yet." Duck said.

Professor Kazel nodded and said, "Then let me teach you."

"Okay." Duck suddenly smiled.

Although his original plan was to ask for advice after Claire was free.

But if Professor Kazel came in person, it would be better for Kazel to continue teaching.

Professor Kazel said with a smile: "Professor Pava Jones actually formed a transformation club. If you learn the [Transformation Curse] well, I can recommend it for you."

Dak shook his head and said, "But I have decided to rebuild the Fantastic Beasts Society."

Professor Kazel smiled and said: "Students can only join one club, but the club formed by the professor is not included."

"Is that so?" Dark thought, "Then I can think about it."

Just as he was speaking, Pandora squeezed into the screen from beside him.

Sylph was surprised: "Isn't this Pandora? She's with you too?"

Pandora said: "Professor, I just arrived last night."

Sylph nodded and said: "It seems that you have a good relationship."

……

Happy time is always short.

Dak only felt like talking for a few words, but half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

When the bell struck ten o'clock, there was finally movement in St. Louis Square.

"Is it finally time to start?"

Erin's gaze immediately turned to St. Louis Square, and the three professors stopped talking.

As if sensing a different atmosphere, the people inside the teahouse also walked towards the window.

At this time, the sound of prayers that had been fluttering in St. Louis Square finally changed its tone, and a gilded carriage slowly approached from above the sky.

The bright carriage pierces the sky under the traction of the pure white unicorn, and the wings of light carried on both sides of the carriage scatter polarized light feathers while fanning.

The sacred and solemn atmosphere spread along with the variations of prayers.

Immediately behind the gilded carriage was a golden armored paladin in golden armor.

Every golden armored paladin rode his own mount and marched neatly on the golden road that spread all the way.

……

So without warning, the first batch of high-ranking members of the Holy Church came to this St. Louis Square.

The gilded carriage pulled by the unicorn stopped outside the formation of the silver armored knights, and a haggard old man with a long canopy came out from the carriage.

His name is Caleb Norris, and he is the Chief Archbishop of the Holy Church!

The appearance of the archbishop excited the crowd outside the square.

Some believers shouted loudly at the archbishop on the spot, and the atmosphere over there was suddenly high.

But in the living room of the Duke's Mansion, Darke was carefully sizing up the Chief Archbishop whose status in the Holy Church was second only to the Pope.

"I always feel like I've seen him somewhere?"

Perhaps it was the passing sight during the duel that made Dak notice the archbishop, and he still has a little impression now.

"This is the chief archbishop of the Holy Church, Caleb Norris."

Eve's dubbing let Dak know the identity of the old man.

But Dak's first thought was about the previous archbishop, and he couldn't help shaking his head.

Even in churches with centralized beliefs, power struggles cannot be escaped.

But this archbishop is so old, he should not be able to participate in the competition for the next pope, right?

Speaking of which, what was the identity of the current Pope before he became Pope?

Suddenly, Dak's heart moved, and he asked out his doubts.

Eve and Erin obviously have training in this area of ​​knowledge, and they have a very detailed understanding of the background of the big shots.

Without waiting for others to speak, Eve continued: "The current pope was once the first holy son of the Holy Church, known as the 'contemporary saint', and the person closest to the 'holy'."

"The pope is also a saint?"

Dak's heart moved, and he couldn't help asking.

Compared with the relatively low-key Chief Archbishop, he is more familiar with the Pope, but this is the first time he has learned that he is actually a "saint".

The so-called "sage" is a general term for special people who have awakened the blood of the gods among human beings.

Yvette and Principal Arte are both "saints".

They also gained great strength and long lifespan because of this.

But the pope in Dark's impression was an old man who looked similar to the archbishop.

This remarkable difference means that there must be secrets in it.

But Eve doesn't know this inner secret.

Instead, Hephaes Dragoon said: "Although the pope is also a saint, he is not born a saint, but man-made. In the holy religion, it is also called 'divine creation'."

"Man-made, God-made?" Duck couldn't help frowning, "What's the difference between a natural saint and a man-made saint?"

Hefes talked eloquently: "Artificial saints are divided into grades according to the level of the bloodline of the gods and the degree of fit of the recipients of the bloodline. Only the highest artificial saints can reach the level of natural saints. And that is only limited to strength In fact, not only do they not have the long lifespan of natural saints, but their lifespan will be shortened due to the forcible implantation of the blood of the gods in the human body. Therefore, the Pope of the Holy Church generally does not live long."

"It's not long to live again..."

Duck couldn't help rolling his eyes.

The so-called gains must be lost.

Man-made sanctification can be regarded as the category of "alchemy".

And "alchemy", the most important thing is the "principle of equivalent exchange".

But the cost of man-made sanctification is far more than lifespan reduction.

But no one cares.

……

In St.Louis Square.

With the appearance of the Chief Archbishop, the Holy Cult finally started to act.

The golden armored paladins who came with the team formed an array around the four pillars, becoming the innermost line of defense.

The archbishop slowly walked up the boulder steps and came to the altar.

However, when people thought he was about to make a big move, the archbishop knelt down in front of the altar, folded his hands, and prayed like those priests.

However, as his voice of prayer gradually became louder, the precious jade on the corner of the altar lit up, and waves of magic power radiated from the altar.

Those magical powers seeped into the air, causing the surrounding environment to change subtly.

When people reacted, the ten-mile radius centered on St. Louis Square was actually covered by a layer of enchantment!

Although this enchantment only raised a circle of light walls without any blocking effect at the edge of ten miles, it still caused an uproar.

The people who happened to be near the edge instinctively ran away after seeing the circle of light, and then they were shocked to find that the enchantment seemed to be just a circle of light effect.

People hesitated, some decisively chose not to enter the muddy water, while others still entered and quickly spread the news.

Not long after, Yilin and the others in the teahouse also learned about it.

And Erin knew it, and of course Dak knew it too.

He couldn't help asking: "Is this Archbishop Caleb Norris doing any preparatory work?"

Professor Sylph's face was slightly gloomy, and he said to him: "Do you still remember the ceremony venue we arranged in the college?"

Darke thought about it, and quickly said: "You mean... the star enchantment arranged by Professor Mitia?"

Professor Sylph said in a deep voice: "The most basic condition for performing a ritual is to create an environment suitable for the ritual. Caleb Norris is probably adjusting the overall environment."

Professor Kazel said in astonishment: "Sylph, if this is according to your statement, does the Holy Cult want to perform ritual refinement? Could this be the punishment method they thought of?"

Professor Sylph was silent for a moment: "Who knows?"

Professor Kazel couldn't help shutting up and shaking his head. After all, the Holy Cult couldn't possibly execute the devil king, because what they had was only a shell of the devil's corpse.

But what the Holy Cult is doing now does seem to be preparing for the ritual.

"Maybe they have some other purpose?" Kazel said.

"Wait, what other purpose?" Little Lili was still at a loss after listening for a long time, "Why can't I understand what you're saying? Did you have something fun that you didn't take me with you?"

"Hahaha." Professor Kazel laughed dryly, and Xindao didn't take me with him.

"Then Professor." Duck said worriedly, "Since the Holy Cult may want to launch the ritual to refine, shouldn't you withdraw from the enchantment now?"

Professor Kazel frowned slightly, and said: "That's the truth, there is no need to take unnecessary risks."

But Professor Sylph shook his head and said, "I want to continue watching. As for the completion of the ceremony, don't worry."

Then she took out a magic card from the card bag, placed it face down in the middle of the table, then stretched out her finger to point on the magic card, and chanted the incantation.

Three seconds later, the magic card was instantly activated.

A circle of light that cannot be seen by ordinary people expanded suddenly, forming a ball with a diameter of about three meters, surrounding all four of them.

The special factors that penetrated into the air were all pushed away by the ball, making this area completely separated from the ritual environment.

"This is [Regional Prohibition], which can define an area that is not affected by factors such as venues and enchantments."

Professor Sylph said lightly.

……

Almost at the same time, Archbishop Caleb Norris on the altar twitched his brows, his eyes opened a slit.

But he quickly closed it again and continued to maintain the barrier.

There are not a few people who use similar secret methods to avoid the influence of rituals.

In his "vision", one bubble after another is appearing at an extremely fast speed within the entire giant barrier with a radius of ten miles.

And those who have used the secret method are all in this bubble.

Lots of people.

But compared to the entire crowd attracted by the "Devil King's Execution Ceremony", it was just a small group of innocuous people.

However, this small stamp cannot be ignored.

He just pursed his lips lightly, and the Holy Cult deployed in the crowd immediately knew the position of the bubbles, and then approached them quietly in a group of three.

No contact with it, just observe and record from a distance.

Although the holy religion seems to have done nothing, it has already started to act.

The entire ten-mile radius of the land has been covered with the eyeliner of the Holy Cult.

At this time, it is also appropriate to use the side effects of the enchantment to mark some unrecognizable dangerous objects and monitor them in all aspects.

However, what he did did not escape the observation of some people.

……

Just after Professor Sylph launched [Area Prohibition], he immediately found that he and others had been watched—in fact, they had been watched all the time, but this time they had increased their hands.

"So that's it, this enchantment still has this effect."

Professor Sylve understood, but did not take any action.

Surveillance is just monitoring, you can't let people see it, can't you?

She doesn't care.

It's just that Hefes in the living room shouted luck.

"It's a good thing I didn't go."

She patted her bumpy heart, picked up the fruit and took a bite, her mouth full of juice.

With this level of surveillance, she might be exposed in an instant.

At that time, what they will face is the encirclement and suppression of the Holy Church again.

……

The entire area around St. Louis Square underwent subtle changes after the formation of the enchantment.

Some people retreated hastily, some were targeted, but there were still people who blended perfectly into the crowd without showing any sense of presence.

Similarly, there are also people whose whereabouts are so surreptitious that even the Archbishop cannot detect them.

Based on this, the entire ceremony developed rapidly.

After all, only a small portion of people retreated, and the vast majority chose to continue watching, and there was a steady stream of newcomers pouring into the enchantment.

People's emotions began to change gradually under the silent influence.

Located on a small building on the north side of St. Louis Square, Alvette and Claire toasted and drank, both smiling.

They have gradually realized what the Holy Church wants to do!
