Royal Gold Magistrate

After the bonfire burned out, Father Soljay got up and patted the dust under his body.

Turning around, he saw Lai Gou'er and Hope standing behind him, his expression froze, and he realized something.

Lai Gou'er said: "Father, I will send someone to inquire today. The Pope has time to meet you tomorrow morning. Say goodbye to the others and go back to clean up."

Father Soljay's expression was indifferent: "No need, it will only add to the sadness, let's go directly."

After finishing speaking, he brushed past Lai Gou'er and left first.

Hope frowned: "I don't think he's in the right state. Don't make any problems when you see the Pope tomorrow."

Lai Gou'er's expression became serious.

Having been with Hope these days, I have gotten to know him quite well.

This guy has a carefree personality, he really didn't lie, and he is also a very powerful merchant in the city.

The most important thing is that the eyes are definitely not ordinary. He said that the priest is not in the right state, so there is probably something wrong.

"How to say?"

Hope shook his head lightly: "It's hard to say, I have seen many monks who have just entered the Holy City before. Some of these people were hit after seeing the reality, and they quickly joined forces after being hit, but the priest is different. I still have a headache. One time someone saw him do that."

"I'm afraid that if he sees the Pope saying something radical and contradicting the Pope, that's a death penalty without a doubt."

Makes sense... The priest dared to contradict the Pope, he really didn't expect it.

Judging by his pious appearance before, I am afraid that the status of the Pope in his heart is not much different from that of God.

But the rapid changes in the recent period are really elusive.

"However...you don't have to worry too much. The chances of this incident are not high. I have been in business for so many years and I am used to putting the worst outcome first." Hope added, "And what is there in the Temple Mount? I can still get in touch if something happens, and I will notify you if something unexpected happens."

"An upright person will be welcomed everywhere. I think there might be someone willing to help someone like him in the temple."

Lai Gou'er was surprised: "Didn't you say that the church is corrupt?"

Hope took a deep look at him: "At least it wasn't like this before, even now internally, many people are dissatisfied with the church's practices, but they are kidnapped by interests, the pope is already at the top of power, everyone dare It’s just that I dare not speak out.”

"I understand..."

......

It was night, when Father Soljay returned to the hotel, Lai Gouer specially arranged for the two of them to live in the same room.

The two chatted a lot, most of the topics were about Dajing, Taoyuan County.

Seeing that everything was normal for Soljie, Lai Gou'er felt a lot less burdened.

It seems that he is really worrying too much, he is still in a good state of mind, and he should have no problem seeing the Pope tomorrow.

Until the next morning, I saw the priest who had only washed his face, but was still dirty and unshaven.

Lai Gou'er reminded: "Father...you really don't want to change your clothes?"

Father Solje shook his head lightly: "There is no need for this, I am used to it, baptism is just a simple ceremony, after which you can leave the holy city."

Lai Gou'er had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Early the next morning, the two returned to the foot of the Temple Mount, and this time they entered the Temple smoothly.

Except for a few reminders from the guards, it wasn't too difficult.

Father Soljay entered the temple alone, while Lai Gouer went straight back to Hope's house.

He already had a comprehensive understanding of the temple.

Perhaps it is a better choice not to deal with each other at the moment...I will report it to the court for a decision later.

Father Soljay raised his head and watched the golden light all over the Temple Mount. The sight was so beautiful that his heart was already empty.

Go up the steps and follow the instructions of the previous guards to the main hall.

Entering the main hall, although the decoration is still solemn, the atmosphere is much more lively.

There are quite a few people walking in it with a relaxed expression.

The most eye-catching one was a cardinal, holding a wine bottle and leaning against the pillar in front of him, taking a sip from time to time.

Father Soljay frowned, and continued to look around.

While observing, a waiter suddenly stood in front of him with an unfriendly expression and asked, "Father, who let you in with your clothes like this?"

Father Soljay said: "I have come to the Temple Mount to be baptized by the Pope and become the archbishop. I have already notified you before, so please inform me again."

With that said, he handed over the power of attorney.

The waiter took a look, and his face softened a little: "You wait here, don't move around."

......

Inside the Pope's study.

The Pope sat behind a large desk, with an incomparably gorgeous crown on his head. He was about sixty years old, and he had a sense of calm and prestige.

On the left and right sides, the clerk and the chief justice are all standing.

And sitting in front of him was a person with blond hair and a straight back.

Suddenly stood up and respectfully said: "Thank the Holy See for the ten days of hospitality. Now that the contract has been signed, I need to report to His Majesty immediately. The delay has been a bit long."

The Pope nodded, his voice was slightly thicker: "Go back and tell him that I have been tolerant enough to him. Although the agreement is set for two years, I need you to speed up the progress. It is best to get all the gods in the contract within one and a half years." Send the punishment weapons to the holy city, if you are short of manpower, I can send someone to help."

The blond man smiled: "Your Majesty has already sent two cardinals here, so there is no need to send any more help. Sanjak is a bit far away from the Holy City, and it is not easy to manufacture God's Punishment Weapons. It is already difficult to complete them within the contract." , but I will report back to His Majesty what you mentioned, and strive to deliver it as soon as possible."

The Pope waved his hand with a somewhat impatient expression.

When the blond man turned around and went out, the Pope raised his hand and explained: "The first batch of God's Punishment Weapons will be delivered in three months. Prepare people to study them in advance. Such things cannot always be kept in the hands of outsiders."

The judge beside him said: "Holy seat, the divine punishment weapon is a god-given craft, we..."

"Bestowed by God? Do you believe in this kind of nonsense?" The pope looked dismissively.

But at this time, the door of the study was knocked.

The waiter then entered, bowed and said: "The Holy See, the archbishop from Fika, is ready to accept your baptism, and is waiting in the hall now."

The Pope got up slowly, and said in his mouth: "Well, go out...The situation has become more and more unstable these years. First, Sanjak, then the Brotherhood, and local believers gathered to make trouble. If it hasn’t been resolved, you have to imitate God’s Punishment Weapon as soon as possible.”

After speaking, the Pope had already walked out the door.
