Cannon fodder, please open your eyes [Quick Transmigration]

The old Pope is dead.

This was completely beyond Shen Pei's expectations.

Fortunately, the black cat in his arms didn't question him subconsciously to protect the other party's actions. He hurried to the holy temple of the Holy See according to the route planned by 0049.

Different from the cathedral where Shen Pei usually lived, the holy temple of the Holy See of Guangming was built near the royal palace, and the royal family, nobles and clergymen came and went in and out.

The turbulence comparable to a small-scale earthquake caused panic among the people in the capital. Shen Pei walked all the way and saw many civilians who crowded into the streets to seek refuge.

Fortunately, very few people were injured due to this accident, and there were endless discussions, but no uncontrollable chaos occurred.

When Shen Pei arrived near the temple, he was surrounded by heavily armed Knights of Light, all of them looked solemn, as if they had heard the news of the old Pope's death.

Also standing outside the temple was the archbishop with gray temples. He hurried over from the church, but was surrounded and stopped by these ruthless knights.

"What's the matter?" It was rare to see the archbishop who was second only to the Pope deflated, Shen Pei said in surprise, "What happened?"

The tense atmosphere was broken by a question, and the anxious knight who had to stop others wiped the cold sweat from his brow, and gave the answer first: "To tell you the truth, the Pope was assassinated and killed, and the temple was sealed off... this is also The order given by His Royal Highness the Son."

——In the case that the current pope died unexpectedly without publicly choosing the next successor, the holy son who was brought by the other party to personally train him is the most reasonable heir in name.

This is also one of the most important meanings of the existence of the position of "Holy Son".

After hearing this, the archbishop frowned and said to Shen Pei in a low voice: "I got the news an hour ago that the letters of recommendation from several other cardinals 'coincidentally' were delivered to Your Majesty today."

Deliberately accentuating the pronunciation of the word "coincidentally", he spoke with sarcasm, obviously not thinking that the Pope's death was an accident or a coincidence.

It was clearly a murder.

A murder from within, from the faction of the Son.

At the same time, due to the Archbishop's reminder, Shen Pei became more and more sure of his guess——

An "assassin" who was so skillful and crazy that he killed the pope to secure the status of the Holy Son. Apart from the raider Evans who had a system and didn't care about the lives of the aborigines, he really couldn't think of any other more suspicious candidates.

But it's not an option to waste time in a stalemate outside the temple. If it weren't for the image of "Il Priest", Shen Pei even wanted to knock the two knights who were blocking the way unconscious with a sap.

Fortunately, Samuel, who was ordered in danger, has not yet established any prestige that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As more and more priests gathered outside the temple, the knights who could not stand the pressure could only let them go.

Due to the status of the archbishop and Shen Pei's recent performance, most of the priests spontaneously walked behind the two, as if they had found the backbone of the chaotic situation.

In the most magnificent palace in the entire empire and even the entire continent, the stiff old Pope was lying on his back in front of the statue, staring straight at the painted dome with his muddy and dilated pupils.

The sunlight that was cut into countless pieces by the stained glass fell on his body mottledly, and against the bright red blood flowing from the abdomen, it looked even more eerie and terrifying.

"how come……"

"The Pope, he..."

Amidst the low cries of surprise and panic, only the black-haired priest standing in the front raised his staff to cast a healing spell with a serious expression.

For a moment, all the priests present looked at each other involuntarily, hoping that this black-haired colleague who had once cast the legendary forbidden spell could perform miracles again.

but.

No matter how pure and rich the bright elements condensed at the tip of the black-haired priest's staff, they cannot restore a life that has passed away.

Seemingly infected by the other party's silent stubbornness, the priests who were originally just shocked watched the young man try again and again, and also felt a heavy sadness.

Even the archbishop, who had been silently calculating the gains and losses, stepped forward and held his adopted son's arm: "Il, forget it, under the Pope's crown, he has already..."

Before the dissuading words were finished, a knight's sword flew out of nowhere and struck the black-haired priest's wrist with the sound of piercing through the air: "What are you doing?"

Forcefully pushing the archbishop away from the danger zone, the black-haired priest withdrew his right hand very quickly, but his robe was still cut by the sharp blade.

"Dang!"

The knight's sword fell to the ground, and the priests who saw this scene felt terrified at first, and then looked at the person with anger on their faces: "Knight Evans, what are you doing?"

"Sorry," bowed without sincerity, and Evans put on a businesslike posture, "The Pope was assassinated and died. I can't let anyone suspicious go away."

"Suspicious person? Priest Il is just performing a healing technique!"

"Blocking the temple and letting the pope lie in a pool of blood in such an unseemly manner, is this the solution that your knight order negotiated?"

Knowing that most of the cardinals would not be able to reach the capital in a short time, Evans picked up his sword, not paying attention to these powerless ordinary priests at all: "The situation is urgent, what we have to do now should be It is to find out the truth and catch the murderer, not to show some useless sadness in front of the Pope's corpse..."

"Are you right, Priest Il?"

—The thief shouted, "Catch the thief."

Looking at the four big characters written brightly in each other's eyes, Shen Pei evoked a perfunctory smirk: "Perhaps you are right, but everyone's intentions cannot be trampled on."

"That's enough, Evans," Samuel said with a thick nasal voice and red eyes, walking out from behind the knight, "The enemy we have to fight against should be the dark church, not these partners who also believe in light."

Turning their heads to look at His Royal Highness, who was obviously close to the Knights, the priests finally realized belatedly where Evans' tough attitude came from.

The blond son held in his hand the Pope's scepter known to countless clergy.

[Tsk tsk, Evans is really ruthless to pick up other people's equipment before the body is cold. 】

Seeing that the host was at a disadvantage and complained in a mood, 0049 couldn't help asking: [What are you going to do? 】

[Of course they are 'seeking justice' for the Dark Vatican. They have taken such a big scapegoat for doing nothing, no wonder they have always had a bad reputation. 】

Looking lightly at the magnificent Pope's scepter in the protagonist's hand, Shen Pei squinted and smiled lightly: 【It's just in his hand, he has to hold it well. 】

Keenly aware of the change in the young priest's attitude, the black cat lying in the young man's arms let out a low cry.

Not finding any evidence that the black cat was a monster yet, Evans glanced at the other party in disgust, and waved his hand to ask the knights under his command to "invite" the priests out.

Because Samuel had the Pope's scepter in his hand, the archbishop couldn't find the reason for the attack for a while, so he had to wait patiently for the arrival of other cardinals.

Although it has been seen that there is some discord between the adopted son and Evans, perhaps because he is afraid that the "unintentional power" opponent will admit defeat in this way, he still implicitly hints to Shen Pei that the death of the old Pope may be related to insiders, so don't admit it easily Muir's identity as "the next Pope".

However, Shen Pei didn't intend to endure silently at all. As soon as the agreed time came, he immediately opened the scroll and went to the Dark Holy See.

Unlike the Holy See of Light, which was located in the center of the empire and directly overshadowed the royal family, the Holy See of Darkness hidden in the depths of the Whispering Forest was full of dull-colored stone buildings as far as the eye could see.

There were many tombs near the temple, and Shen Pei, who was in the central square, looked at the circles of people in black robes wearing cloaks, thinking that he was taking pictures of Harry Potter in a trance.

Compared with the bright Vatican, which pays attention to decent rules, the dark Vatican, which has weak relations among members, is obviously much more straightforward. Almost the moment it is confirmed that Shen Pei has the imprint of wings, countless magic spells with corrosive effects are all thrown at him.

He had never used dark magic seriously in his previous two lives, and Shen Pei was eager to fight back when the god hiding in the void held his hand.

The dark elements that had been peacefully dormant in the mark of the rose gushed out all at once, and the strong wind swept through, blowing away all the attacks and the casters behind them.

"Hooho-"

The startled birds flew up, and the Whispering Forest, which has always been known for its dead silence, suddenly heard deafening and terrifying noises.

A dozen giant dragons with only skeletons flapping their "wings" circled upwards, as if covering the sky and covering the sun, protecting the black-haired priest from a distance.

[One, two, three, four, five, six, seven...] Counting the number of bone dragons in the sky one by one, 0049 just felt like they had eaten a whole lot of dog food, [There are thirteen in total, which is equivalent to thirteen dark forbidden spells. I'm afraid they didn't dig the dragon's ancestral grave directly. 】

Such a "miracle" that surpassed human limits obviously frightened all the men in black robes who had attacked the youth. Feeling the tremendous pressure brought by the bone dragons, they even began to wait for death in despair.

"Don't worry, this is just a small return to the other party's temptations." Ignoring the mischievous smile in the void, the black-haired priest secretly pulled back his held hand and explained as sincerely as possible, "I didn't intend to create Killing, you all get up."

It's a pity that against the background of those white and miserable bone dragons, no matter how soft and gentle he is in his tone, he looks like a big bad wolf saying "I won't eat you" to the little white rabbit.

Reminiscent of the young man who had become a popular candidate for the pope because he saved the city of Nuoqi, many people in black robes suddenly realized that the heroic scene that made the bone dragon submit was probably directed and performed by the other party!

Thinking about it carefully, thinking about it this way, the pope of light who died suddenly, might have been killed by the other party.

What a terrible man!

They actually want to test such a "freak" that goes beyond common sense!

"Listen, I didn't kill the old pope," the tomb was cracked, the phosphorescent flames were swaying, he raised his hands to his forehead dumbfounded, and the black-haired priest protected by several bone dragons shook his head, speaking the most righteous words against the most evil background. "As you can see, I'm here for one purpose."

"That is to help the Dark Holy See clean up its grievances..."

"Give everyone the truth."

The author has something to say: Pei Pei: Actually, I am a good person.

Dark Congregation: We don't believe it.

Shen Langlang was wronged when he was not regarded as the "true murderer" by the Holy See of Guangming, but was suspected by "his own people" first

Daily comparison, mua.
