The pope's face was as gentle as before, with sighs and pity in his eyes.
Angel's body moved, and there was severe pain from the steel nails driven into his limbs. Her somewhat confused consciousness woke up from the pain.
"Ah...His Majesty the Pope..."
Her voice was hoarse and weak.
"Do you regret it? Angel?"
The Pope asked slowly, the compassion in his eyes getting deeper and deeper.
"I want to regret...ahem...what should I regret?"
Angel asked softly.
The Pope said nothing.
Angel's breathing was a little rapid, and he said with difficulty: "I just don't understand what I did wrong."
"We have achieved nothing in Eastern Europe, and it's all because of you. Angel, it was you who betrayed the Holy See."
The Pope's tone remained calm.
"That's not betrayal, I just did what I thought was right, Aresis... Phew... He can't kill Paul, Your Majesty, no matter whether the Holy See is willing to admit it or not, but this is the fact, with our strength,
We cannot afford to offend Middle-earth."
The Pope looked at him without saying a word.
"Now...it's too late."
Angel muttered to himself.
"No one can control everything."
The Pope straightened his white robes and said calmly: "I can understand your mood when you ruined Aresis' coronation, and I can also understand your thoughts at the time. But in fact, what happened after you ruined his coronation
Everything is beyond your expectation. Aresis was hypnotized and used salvation in advance. The battle was called the Day of Judgment. The Holy See had almost no effect. Paul and Jin Tong were not dead, and neither did we in Eastern Europe.
The slightest benefit, this time of chaos, we were completely defeated. If Aresis was at his peak, it might be a different result now. I understand your original intention, but the reality is that all this is because you destroyed it
His coronation."
"This was not my intention."
Angel was silent for a moment and sighed: "I overestimated Aresis."
A flash of humor and bitterness flashed across the Pope's eyes for a moment. He shook his head and said nothing.
Angel indeed overestimated Aresis.
As one of the only peak invincible masters in the dark world, Aresis's qualifications are not that outstanding compared to the others. Being able to barely break through to the peak invincible realm has exhausted all his potential, and even
It can be said that all his potential has been overdrawn. He is known as the best in close combat in the dark world, but his will is always weak, which is also his recognized weakness.
But before that, except for the Pope, no one thought that Aresis's will would be so fragile. According to Angel's original estimate, even if she ruined the coronation, the other party's will would be far beyond ordinary invincibility, at most
That is to say, it is worse than the peak invincible. Who can hypnotize such a character except the Pope?
However, Aresis stepped directly into the hypnotic trap of Eastern Christianity after his coronation was destroyed. In this way, Aresis' strength of will was clearly exposed to everyone.
Without being crowned, Aresis's comprehensive combat power under normal conditions is at the peak of invincibility. But if it is just about will, he is at most as strong as ordinary invincibles, and his strength is limited.
This is the holy war angel who supports the Holy See.
His will is not even as strong as when he died on Dongdao more than three or four years ago.

The killing angel Ardak in the hands of Li Tianlan.
Even in the current situation, Angel felt that this was a bit ridiculous. She shook her head and looked mockingly: "Actually, this is your main purpose against me, right? The fundamental reason why I paid the price today is not because I destroyed it.
The fundamental reason why you are so indifferent and Aresis is so crazy, Your Majesty, is just because I ruined his coronation and has nothing to do with the consequences."
The Pope was silent.
What Angel said was absolutely correct. The destruction of Aresis's coronation itself was the most tragic loss for the Holy See this time. The loss was so heavy that the Pope even went crazy.
This time when they entered Eastern Europe, although the Holy See gained nothing, the losses were not too much. They were just some elite Holy Inquisition warriors. Although it was heartbreaking to lose these losses, Angel, as a Saint of the Holy See, could not be treated like this.
treat.
The reason why she ended up like this is because he overestimated Aresis.
She never thought that Aresis's will was so fragile. After destroying the coronation and going through hypnosis, the pope's will to crown him would continue to bite back on Aresis himself. Under normal circumstances, Aresis
As long as he is determined, there will be no problem, but his will is simply not up to par. Since then, the most intuitive consequence is that Aresis's combat power will decline significantly after losing the Pope's coronation.
Decline also means that Aresis is about to fall from the peak of invincibility. Even if he is crowned again in the future, he will no longer have the strength in his normal state.
In the battle in Eastern Europe, the Holy See directly lost a peak invincible figure!
That's why Aresis's behavior becomes more and more abnormal. His resentment towards Angel is increasing every moment. He wants to use the most cruel means to retaliate against her and everyone related to her.
The Pope also chose to acquiesce in this situation.
"Arissis informed Zed of your news."
The Pope changed the subject and suddenly asked: "Angel, do you think he will come?"
Angel looked at the Pope quietly.
There was no panic in her eyes, but a very gentle smile: "He will definitely come."
She stayed here, letting Aresis torture her body and tear her soul apart, just to get a look at him.
Just one glance.
"He will die."
The Pope looked at Angel, feeling suddenly uneasy.
Angel said lightly.
The Pope took a deep breath and said calmly: "What you just said is right. You ruined the coronation of Aresis and caused the Holy See to suffer a huge loss that it has not suffered for many years. That's why you will have your current ending, but there are still
One thing, Angel, I don't like you. Saints of the Holy See must maintain a perfect and pure virgin body. Your existence has been a shame to me and the Holy See for so many years."
Angel laughed, her smile was extremely weak, but with a strong sense of sarcasm: "Don't like it? I am a saint of the Holy See. Over the years, I think that everything I do is worthy of the Holy See, even if
This time, my original intention was not..."
"I understand."
The Pope nodded and interrupted her: "I understand, but I just don't like it."
If you hate someone, you won't be shaken by how many good things they have done. He just doesn't like it, and that's enough.
Angel was silent for a while and said slowly: "I understand."
"actually..

.”
In the gloomy environment, her voice was ethereal and strange, with a strong aura of depravity: "I have wanted to say for a long time that I don't like you either, Pope, and I don't like the Holy See even more. It's just because there is me in the Holy See.
Faith, that's why I chose to stay. For faith, I gave up a lot of things. But until today, until now, I understand that what I insist on is not that I can't give up, but those who have already given up... really can't.
give up."
She leaned against the cross and looked at the Pope. Covered in blood, her expression was so solemn, as if meeting him like this: "Introduce yourself, I am Angel Stuart."
Next to him, Aresis gradually woke up in the spiritual realm of the Pope.
He heard Angel's self-introduction, and then heard her next voice: "From today on, I am a faithless person."
Aresis's face suddenly twisted, and his furious roar echoed crazily in the church.
The Pope's face was a little gloomy: "Those who have no faith will eventually fall into hell."
"hell?"
Angel chuckled: "Is hell scary? I am in the church now, under the eyes of the Father, but in my heart, this is hell."
"This is arrogance! You damn..."
"enough!"
Angel suddenly interrupted Aresis's roar, and it seemed that she was coming back to her senses. Her spirits improved little by little, and her eyes gradually became clearer and disdainful: "Who do you think you are? The clown hiding behind this old Pope.
, do you really think you are a holy war angel?"
Aresis's eyes were red, and even his hair stood on end.
"alright."
The pope's light voice sounded: "Angel, you have seen your own end. What you say now is meaningless."
He slowly turned around, walked towards the way he came from, and said calmly: "I said, no one can control everything. The reason why the situation is a chaos is because it is changing at any time, the general trend is changing, and the enemy and ourselves are also changing. We do
We lost the opportunity to cooperate with Li Tianlan. This is a loss in your opinion, but you don’t know that after we lost Li Tianlan, we have already established a cooperative relationship with the Wang family in Beihai, so in the future, Eastern Europe will still be ruled by the Holy See.
.”
His figure walked to the door and paused.
"Aresis..."
He ordered, his tone was light and emotionless: "Destroy her."
Aresis laughed ferociously.
Angel's body suddenly began to struggle, the sharp steel nails rubbing her flesh and blood, and the severe pain made her more alert.
"You can't destroy me! You can't do it. I can die, but I have what this clown lacks most. Pope, you can't destroy my will!"
"Snapped!"
Aresis slapped Angel hard on the face.
Angel stopped struggling, and she suddenly laughed lowly. Some weird laughter echoed in the dark light. Her eyes were extremely dead, as if they contained an abyss of eternal darkness.
A chill gradually rose in Aresis's heart.
"You are all wrong."
Angel said quietly: "So what if you unite with the Beihai Wang family? Eastern Europe will never be the Holy See's world, nor will it be the Holy See's world."
"oh?"
The Pope, who was about to leave, turned around and looked at Angel.
Angel looked into his eyes, as if to see deep into his heart: "Do you know about Protestantism?"
