At the same time, on the way back to the Holy Land, Zilong and the others used their hearts to report the deaths of the two Saints to the Pope Tonghu in the Holy Land, and the goddess Athena who was silently confronting the Holy Mountain.

"Where is the golden rosary? Are the rosary cast?" Tong Hu, who was fighting with the god of death, asked anxiously.

"Rose...rosary..."

After taking a look at the rosary wrapped around his arm, Zilong didn't know how to reply.

Seeing his friend's dilemma, Binghe immediately passed on Mu's last words to the Pope and Athena.

"Even if it is a craftsman, can't solve this problem?" Tong Hu couldn't help but sigh.

As a veteran of the last holy war, he had also heard of the deeds of his predecessors casting golden rosary by Baili, so he learned that on the day the rosary was cast, there was a previous Virgo who had dedicated himself and sacrificed blood to the rosary.

Originally, he thought that the blood sacrifice rosary bead was a flaw caused by his predecessor's poor skills in Baili.

Now, Mu entered the divine realm to enter the theological art of casting, which will inevitably solve the defect of blood sacrifice.

Who knows that the Rosary Blood Sacrifice is not a problem of casting defects at all, but a necessary process that cannot be bypassed.

"Master, what are you and Miss Saori planning to deal with this matter?" Zilong asked in a trepid mood.

Tong Hu sighed, "You don't need to know about this! Just protect the rosary and bring it back to the holy land!"

"When we decide the right candidate, you can hand over the rosary to him on the battlefield!"

After saying that, he cut off his communication with the two and only retained his contact with Athena.

"Sir Athena, do you have any opinions on this matter?" Tong Hu asked seriously.

"I have no objection!"

On the top of the peak, Athena shook her head gently and said, "I will leave this matter to you with full authority."

"However, the candidates for sacrifice must be voluntarily and must not be forced."

She had already learned about this from the craftsman, so she was not surprised.

Just as she had decided long ago, she gave the choice to the group of Saints and let them choose.

She didn't want to bear the cold stigma of letting her loyal subordinates die.

"Yes, Lord Athena!"

Tong Hu responded, then interrupted the contact, turned offensive to defend, and began to think about the candidates for sacrifice during the battle.

According to Mu's last words, only by reaching the eighth sense can one be qualified to sacrifice the rosary of the blood.

Looking around the entire holy realm, Saint Seiya who has already realized the eighth sense include Virgo Shaka, Lyra Olufi, Oserpent, Seiya, and the current pope.

Among them, Ossus is a medical staff member who reduces the burden on the treatment of the Sanctuary. Their battle with the underworld has been able to persist until now, and Oss has also contributed a large part of it.

Without Os, there would be no idea how many people would die in the Holy Land.

Therefore, Tong Hu was the first to exclude the ranks of the sacrificial candidates.

Among the remaining few people, Seiya, the zodiac sign of Athena, has the power to kill God, is a capable general of Goddess Athena, has endless causal entanglement with Pluto, and is the main force in the fight against Pluto.

Therefore, the zodiac should naturally rule out the candidates for sacrifice.

In the end, only Tong Hu himself, Virgo Shaka and Lyra Aolufi were left.

"Oh, forgot, let me go by myself!"

After weighing the pros and cons again, Tong Hu sighed secretly in his heart and decided to sacrifice himself to make the rosary completely perfect.

After all, he is an old man who has experienced two jihad wars and the future should be left to the young man.

Opening up a path for the younger generation is also the meaning of the existence of the older generation.

However, before this, he still has one thing to arrange.

"A wise man in the Virgin Palace, I have one thing I want to ask you!" Tong Hu silently contacted Shaka.

Shaka, who was fighting fiercely with the dikui Xing Azha Poku, immediately forced his opponent to retreat and asked carefully: "Sir, what are your instructions?"

"I am going to let you act as the Pope, and you will be the new Pope in the future!" Tong Hu replied seriously.

The Pope shoulders the important responsibility of assisting the goddess to command the Holy Land and command the battle, and someone must be replaced.

He can't just let go of it, and he will be done with all his might.

Hearing this, even though Yi Shaka was in a state of mind.

"Sir, why did you suddenly talk about this?" Shaka asked hurriedly.

Tong Hu did not hide it, and then explained his decision to sacrifice the rosary of the blood beads.

As a candidate for the Pope’s agent, Virgo has the right to know these.

After listening to Tong Hu's statement, Shaka smiled and replied, "Since that's the case, I'll do the candidate for this sacrifice!"

"You are the Pope and have a great responsibility. How can you die easily?"

"And, the last holy war was made by the blood sacrifice of the previous Virgo Ashimida. This time it will be done by my Virgo lineage!"

"Maybe, this is our destiny!"

There is another reason he didn't say clearly.

Since the last time he betrayed the Holy Land and followed Garna, he has suffered a lot of guilt in his heart.

Now, although he has received the permission of the goddess to return to the Holy Land, he can feel that everyone's eyes are a little wary of him.

That was the distrust of everyone in him.

In this case, his days in the Holy Land were particularly difficult.

Now, there is a shortage of golden rosary and it is just a need for someone to sacrifice himself.

If he can replace this position, he will make the rosary perfect.

It can not only repay the tolerance of Goddess Athena, but also avoid other unnecessary sacrifices, and also obtain self-liberation. It is a good choice.

"you?"

Tong Hu was very surprised at Shaka's answer, and then he turned his mind: "No, let me go! This is my last order as the pope. Do you understand, Virgo!"

Hearing this, Shaka was completely unable to refute it, leaving only a long sigh.

"well--"

Immediately, Tong Hu contacted Zilong and the others who were rushing towards the Holy Land.

"The candidate for sacrifice has been decided!"

"At that time, you just hand over the rosary to me!"

Upon hearing this, Zilong asked in surprise: "Teacher Tonghu, who is the sacrificer?"

He was eager to know which senior was preparing to sacrifice himself.

Next to him, Binghe sighed lightly, shook his head and said, "Zilong, don't you understand yet?"

"Teacher Tong Hu asked us to hand over the rosary to him, and the sacrificer was clearly himself!"

"What??"

Zilong was shocked.

He never thought that as the Pope's teacher, he would be the sacrificer of this string of rosary.

"Why, why is this, Teacher Tong Hu?" He asked in confusion with red eyes.

The teacher treated him very well, like a father, and he really couldn't accept this cruel result.

If possible, he wished he could replace the teacher and replace the position of sacrifice for the teacher.

Tong Hu didn't know how to appease this beloved and proudest disciple.

After a moment of silence, he only replied calmly.
