The Path of Ascension to the Priest

The Holy See represents light, and the buildings in the Holy See are almost all solemn white, holy and solemn, which makes people unable to help but feel pious.

Even the Tribunal has this style, but anyone who knows this place knows that it has nothing to do with the sacred.

These seemingly exquisite buildings are actually dungeons, and it is unknown how many members of the Holy See are imprisoned inside.

Some are innocent, and some are not. Given the nature of the Tribunal, they have nothing to do with the Holy See, but they are indeed an organization of the Holy See. Sometimes Audrey would find it ridiculous when thinking of the Holy See’s dogma.

Do they guard the honor of the Holy See?

No, what they guard is only the rights of the "Pope".

Thousands of harsh and ridiculous rules are just to make the followers of the "Pope" more obedient and easy to manipulate.

bright?glory?What is that ridiculous thing?

The room at the farthest corner of the dungeon is located in a remote location, and the outside sunlight cannot come in, making it very dim. The wall lamps hanging on the wall exude a dim light, and Audrey's figure is stretched and reflected on the wall behind her. superior.

She was wearing a trial gown, and she was lowering her head to sort out the documents on the table. The wide sleeves were casually held by her, and the light blue blood vessels could be clearly seen on the exposed wrists.

Two-thirds of the not-so-spacious room was occupied by a large table, on which files were neatly piled up like a hill.

The closed door was suddenly pushed open and creaked. Audrey looked up in displeasure. When she found that it was Reese, she froze for a moment, then frowned and said, "What are you doing here?"

Ruisi walked in, glanced left and right, then reached out to pick up a file, and replied casually: "I have something to ask you."

She flipped through the dossier and read a few pages, with a subtle expression on her face, "...the court even has this?"

Reese looked around as she spoke, and was a little surprised when she saw the number of files on the table.

The file she looked at belonged to an incumbent bishop, which recorded all the other party's information in detail, including some violation records.

Reese has always known that the court's eyeliner is all over the Holy See, but she didn't expect it to reach such a point.

"It's just some waste paper." Audrey put down the unfinished materials and sat down, and said lightly: "There is no chance of using it at all."

Thousands of years have passed since the development of the Holy See. The factions are intricate and complicated. Almost all the bishops are standing in line. Behind them are either the archbishop in red or the holy son. There are too many restrictions in the court. Without the support of the pope, they want to arrest People are too difficult.

They are an unsheathed knife, and these files are just tools used by the previous judges to make the blade sharper.

Reese took a few more books and flipped through a few pages, and asked with interest: "Is there a file that records me here?"

Audrey glanced at her, pointed to a "hill" next to her, and said mockingly, "Want to see your great achievements?"

The files about Reese were placed in the far corner, and there were several piles with her. Reese knew without thinking that those must belong to other cardinals.

The only ones missing here are the Son and the Pope.

Reese looked at those "hills" and smiled lowly, "It must be just some fur inside, can it be considered a great achievement?"

It is so easy to investigate where their cardinal is.

Audrey didn't speak, she leaned back on the chair and stared at Reese with heavy eyes.

Reese and her stared at each other for a while, their red lips slightly curled up, "I'm here to help you, Audrey."

"Oh?" Audrey raised her eyebrows, but she didn't smile, and said mockingly, "Help me?"

"The Pope has been controlled by you, right? So, who will the new Pope be?" Audrey said with a half-smile and a cold tone, "Is it you or the saint?"

"Could it be Grace?" Audrey threw a dossier in front of her and said blankly, "A cardinal who has no clear connection with werewolves."

Reese picked up the dossier and casually flipped through it, "She sealed the gorefiend. This alone is enough to make her the pope."

"What's wrong with being confused with werewolves?" Reese shrugged. "Even if she is a werewolf, what does it have to do with her being the pope?"

Audrey frowned deeply and did not speak.

In fact, whoever is the pope is the same to her, and she said that these are not aimed at Grace.

She was just... not reconciled, she was destined from the very beginning.

She has been assigned to the Tribunal since the day she entered the Holy See. She worked hard to practice light spells and climbed up. She is excellent and fulfilled her duties. Audrey did a great job, but that's all there is to it up.

Because the nature of the Trial House is like this, they will never see the light in the Holy See, which represents the light.

After the new pope came to power, she...maybe she will be trapped in this dungeon forever just like the imprisoned members of the Holy See.

Who would want to use an old knife? Audrey laughed at herself. If it were her, she would choose someone she trusted.

"Actually, Grace doesn't necessarily want to kill you." Ruisi understood Tang Qiu's character, "She even asked me to take you to the theater."

Audrey said displeasedly: "Race, talk carefully." She always spoke out of tune, but at this time, Audrey was not in the mood to distinguish the meaning of her words.

"She is going to deal with Gabriel, let me take you with her." Reese paused, shook her head and said, "Don't ask me why, I don't know what she is going to do."

Audrey lowered her eyes, and said lightly: "I see, I will go." After she finished speaking, she began to sort out the files again, but after sorting out for a while, she found that Reese hadn't left, so she couldn't help but raised her head and asked with a frown: "Is there anything else?"

Reese stared at her for a while, then suddenly smiled, "Audrey, do you want to be a cardinal?"

Audrey was taken aback.

"The new Pope is in power, the knife of the Tribunal should be out of its sheath." Reese leaned slightly, and suggested with a smile: "Let's change it, and I will be the knife, how about it?"

Audrey didn't expect Reese to say such words, her expression changed for the first time, and the hand holding the file unconsciously clenched a little bit.

She raised her eyes and looked at Ruisi, her eyes were full of inquiry, and Ruisi let her look at her without moving, with a smile on her lips.

Audrey slowly looked away from Reese's face, lowered her eyes slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.

Although the news of Tang Qiu's return to the Holy See has been deliberately suppressed by Ruisi, the fire cannot be covered by paper, especially Tang Qiu, who has become a raging fire after the battle of the Duchy of Shas. There is very little news about her. It soon spread throughout the Star map continent, some people were ecstatic, and some...began to feel uneasy.

Gabriel falls into the latter category.

Gabriel's life has never been so bad as it is now. He hasn't slept for three days and three nights. He has conceived countless plans, but he can't find a way to survive.

He didn't know Tang Qiu, but he knew Ruisi.

With Reese's personality, if Gabriel showed weakness and surrendered and chose to return to the Holy See, this person would not spare his life.

Tang Qiu looked gentle and harmless, but Gabriel could always think of Cambecas's corpse that had been corroded until only the bones remained.

Will the person who can get to this step without showing any signs of expression be a soft-hearted person?

Gabriel rubbed his brows wearily, his normally flat robe was now wrinkled out of shape, there was a blue stubble on his chin, if someone who was familiar with him saw his unkempt appearance, he would definitely be shocked.

The heavy curtains were suddenly blown open by a gust of wind, and a crack was opened in the closed window with a creak. Gabriel, who was tense up, was startled, and suddenly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes fixed on him. Looking at the half-open window, after a while, he was slowly relieved when he found that there was no movement.

Gabriel shook his head, and when he was about to laugh at himself for being too nervous, he suddenly caught sight of a figure standing in front of the bookcase out of the corner of his eye. He was startled, turned his head to look, his face was blue and purple.

The person standing in front of the bookcase was wearing a white priestly attire, with long golden hair hanging down softly behind her, she took a book from the bookcase, the dim light did not affect her interest, she opened the book and read it , then turned his head to Gabriel, and smiled softly: "It turns out that Archbishop Gabriel also likes to read the poetry collections of the bard Verdun. His poems praising death are very artistic."

Verdun's collection of poems... Gabriel's tense nerves made his brain dull. After a while, he realized what Tang Qiu was talking about. He forced a smile and replied: "This is not my manor , that book is certainly not mine."

He paused, and then said: "As a member of the Holy See, how could I be interested in death that represents darkness."

"Really?" Tang Qiu smiled lightly, she closed the book and put it back on the bookcase.

Gabriel kept staring at Tang Qiu's movements until a cold palm pressed against his neck, causing him to turn around in panic, and the palm subconsciously grabbed his staff.

A golden light fell and bound his arms, and the vampire behind him smiled contemptuously, his red eyes gleamed with greed, Lola's palm sank deep into Gabriel's skin, watching the bright red blood gushing out, She licked her lips and said with a low smile, "It's been a long time since I tasted the blood of the archbishop in red."

All the armors on his hands and neck were useless, and Gabriel couldn't move, so he could only yell at Tang Qiu sternly: "Grace, what are you doing?"

"Do you know what it is to kill a cardinal?" Gabriel endured the pain and fear, and spoke quickly, "If you kill me, do you still want to secure your position as Pope?"

"My subordinates are nearby. I have already given the order. If I die, the crime will fall on you."

"Are you going to kill them all, Grace." Gabriel laughed wildly, "Do you think you can shut their mouths?"

"Do you think you can shut the mouths of everyone in the Star Tu continent?"

If Tang Qiu did this, it would be a stain on her life. Following the oracle of the Goddess of Light, the Pope who sprinkled light on the Star Map Continent is a bloodthirsty, cruel and ruthless person. Gabriel sneered. Qiu didn't dare to kill him just like that.

Tang Qiu looked at him quietly, waited patiently for him to finish, and then smiled, "Based on what you and Cambecas did in the Garden of Eden, you won't die a hundred times, right?"

"I deserve to die, but you are not qualified to deal with me."

"Who do you want to deal with you?" Tang Qiu touched his chin, thought for a while, and said with a smile, "The Pope? But he might want you dead more than me."

"Or... the Tribunal?"

Gabriel's eyes flickered for a moment, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, "Yes, yes, the court, I made a mistake, you can hand me over to the court."

There was a hint of pleading in Gabriel's tone, and he said sincerely: "Grace, I can use my power to support you as the new pope."

"We are not enemies. What Cambecas did has nothing to do with me."

Tang Qiu nodded, "You are right, I can hand you over to the court."

Gabriel's eyes widened slightly, and before he could be happy, there was a sudden sharp pain in his chest. He lowered his head in disbelief, and Lola's white palm penetrated his chest.

"You, you lied to me..." Gabriel stared at Tang Qiu bitterly, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, he gritted his teeth and said angrily.

Tang Qiu looked at his gradually lax eyes, shook his head and chuckled, "I didn't say I'd let you enter the trial court alive."

Lola had long been impatient waiting for the food. After receiving Tang Qiu's hint, she directly dealt with Gabriel, and then lowered her head and bit him on the neck. His body is not dead yet. If it is faster Can barely fill the stomach.

Tang Qiu wasn't interested in watching a vampire eat. She went to the door and opened it to go out. Reese and Audrey were standing in the yard. When they heard the movement, they turned their heads to look over.

"Dead?" Reese asked, glancing at the half-open door.

Tang Qiu nodded.

"How did you know he was hiding here?" Reese asked curiously. Gabriel valued his own life very much. He left the bishop and the priest team in the city, and then hid alone.

Reese sent someone to look for it, but they couldn't find it.

"Someone told me." Tang Qiu turned around and glanced at the fence gate of the manor. A tall, thin man came out from the corner and greeted Tang Qiu and the others from afar.

Reese squinted her eyes and said with hooked lips, "Isn't this the loyal Bishop Abel?"

Audrey crossed her arms, looked around the room where Tang Qiu, Abel, and Gabriel were, and then lowered her gaze.

Facing Ruisi's sarcasm, Abel nodded without changing his expression, "Long time no see, Archbishop Ruisi."

Reese sneered.

"Bishop Abel has evidence of Gabriel's fornication with the Xitai clan." Tang Qiu looked at Audrey and said with a smile: "This matter still needs to be handled by the presiding judge Audrey."

Audrey looked at her with a complicated face, "...I'll handle it?"

"The Pope is unconscious. Shouldn't he be tried by the Tribunal for such a serious crime as adultery?"

Fornicating a blood race... Audrey glanced at the half-open room, her eyes flickering, although she didn't know what was going on inside, but...she watched a blood race enter with Tang Qiu.

Audrey's silence caused Reese to glance at her, and then said, "Either I'll handle it..."

She was interrupted by Audrey before she finished speaking. Audrey took a deep breath and said lightly: "I see, I will take care of it."

Abel glanced at her, walked over and said, "Presiding Judge Audrey, can we take a step to talk?"

Audrey nodded, turned around and walked out of the manor with him.

Reese looked at their backs, frowned and said, "Abel can't be trusted."

"What did you promise him to betray Gabriel?"

"I promised to let him take over the position of Cardinal Gabriel." Regarding Reese's worries, Tang Qiu patiently explained: "He is indeed untrustworthy, but he can be used."

Abel has worked under Gabriel for many years, and it is the best choice for him to gather Gabriel's power.

Abel had attached Brill in order to gain power, and now someone gave him more power, of course he betrayed Gabriel, anyway, his true loyal master was never Gabriel.

Tang Qiu knew this, so he approached Abel directly.

Although this man was ambitious, he was still sober. Tang Qiu was not worried about what would happen to him.

The Holy See needs to recuperate, and it is the right decision to extinguish the signs of internal friction all at once. As for eliminating dissidents... this kind of thing is never done on the bright side.

Abel stayed in the court overnight before leaving in a hurry, taking a group of people with him from the court.

The movements of him and the Tribunal were soon known by the saintess. The saintess was a little confused at first, but after thinking for a while, she roughly guessed what it was.

She pinched the teaching affairs that she had just seen halfway through, and stared blankly for a while, then looked up at the accompanying priest beside her, and said in a low voice, "Have Grace and Reese come back?"

The entourage priest nodded, "I have returned to the manor."

The saint pondered for a moment with her eyes downcast, and then said slowly, "Notify the cardinal and the bishop to go to Guangming Square."

"I have a papal decree to publish."

The entourage priest was startled, and looked up at the saint. Seeing her indifferent expression with a trace of killing intent, he hurriedly lowered his head and said respectfully, "Yes, Your Highness the saint."
