"The great Pope Francis is the incarnation of God in the world and the boundless divine light..."
A priest stood next to Pope Francis and loudly sang praises to Pope Francis.
This is the process of the old pope resigning. The priest must praise some of the old pope's deeds. This process usually lasts about half an hour.
It is actually very difficult to flatter someone for half an hour without repeating the same thing. Fortunately, the Vatican has already prepared the manuscript, and the priest only needs to memorize it.
After about forty minutes, the singing ended.
Amid cheers from Hararea, it was the Pope's turn to speak.
"I sincerely thank God for giving us light..."
Francis started his speech with a pious look on his face. The content was lackluster. It was basically some praises to the God of Light and some wishes to the Holy See of Light.
The speech lasted for five minutes. When the Pope finished his speech, there were bursts of cheers and applause.
Amid cheers and applause, the priest presiding over the ceremony solemnly announced that Pope Francis had officially resigned as pope.
Francis took off the papal crown from his head and placed it together with the scepter in his hand on the tray held by the priest next to him. Then, Francis walked aside and sat down.
As Francis sat down, Mobius walked to the center of the stage in front of everyone's attention.
As soon as the tall Mobius came on the stage, he immediately attracted bursts of cheers.
Mobius stood in the middle of the stage with a kind smile and nodded slightly to the people around him.
Then, the priest began to chant.
"When the old light recedes, a new light will shine upon the earth..."
After a long chant, the priest holding the crown and scepter in both hands walked to the front of Mobius.
In addition, a priest holding a Bible also stood beside Mobius.
Mobius put his hand on the Bible.
"I, Mobius, a devout believer of the God of Light, here I swear by my surname and my reputation that I will always be loyal to the great, just and universally loving God of Light..."
Mobius began his oath, which is a necessary awareness for the new pope to ascend the throne. After the oath is completed, the priest on site will put a crown on Mobius and hand over the scepter of light, which represents the supreme divine power.
Give it to Mobius, and then Mobius will become the pope of the new Holy See of Light.
And while Mobius was chanting, a look of determination flashed across the face of Erdo, who was standing in the front row of the priests.
Then, Erdo took a few steps forward and came to the position behind Mobius.
Eldor's behavior surprised all the priests present, because there was no such content in the process. Whether it was the archbishop or other priests, they had to stand still in their queue at this time.
As for the believers in the distance, they did not notice anything strange and thought that Eldor was coming to help complete the ritual.
At this moment, Erdo shouted, "I object to Mobius becoming the new pope!!"
Eldo's shout directly shocked everyone present.
The auditorium exploded instantly.
"What?!"
"What is Bishop Erdo doing!"
People were talking excitedly.
On the stage, Mobius stopped reciting, frowned at Eldor and said, "Eldor, what are you doing?"
"Mobius, I object to you becoming the pope!" Erdo said loudly through gritted teeth.
"Oh? Why do you object?" Mobius asked expressionlessly.
"Because..." Eldo was about to tell his reasons when suddenly an invisible force fell on him. This force directly strangled Eldo's throat, making Eldo unable to speak.
make no sound.
At the same time, this force also forcibly turned Erdo's head, making Erdo look in a certain direction.
Seeing this, Erdo was stunned.
He saw a person.
That person was not far in front of him.
The man was wearing ordinary people's clothes, and he had his hands around the shoulders of another man. The man he was holding was a young man, who looked about sixteen or seventeen years old.
The young man who was being hugged looked a little pale, because right at the young man's throat, a small knife was pressed against the young man's throat.
…
what happened?
Why don't you speak?
Everyone onlookers had doubts on their faces.
"Why don't you speak? Have you forgotten the lines you prepared before?" Mobius had a look of disdain on his face.
Prepared lines?
When everyone heard Mobius say this, they all had strange looks on their faces.
"Since you can't tell it, let your cronies do it. Erdo, I was not willing to deal with you so quickly. After all, you are also the three bishops of the Holy See of Light, but since you have decided to do it today in my
If you cause trouble at the takeover ceremony, then I have no choice but to show you no mercy...Bring the people here." Mobius said in a deep voice.
Following Mobius's words, several templar warriors pressed a priest and walked to Eldo's side.
At this time, Eldo discovered that the power holding his throat suddenly disappeared, and he regained his ability to speak.
But at this time, he couldn't say anything, because the boy not far away from him with a dagger at his throat... was his child.
"Puman, tell me." Mobius looked at the pressed priest and said.
"Okay, okay..." The priest named Puman nodded in panic, then glanced at Eldo and said, "I, I am Puman, Bishop Eldo's subordinate, and Bishop Eldo wants his support.
His holy son became the pope, so I was asked to spread rumors that were unfavorable to His Majesty the Pope a few years ago. In the past few years, 80% of the rumors that were unfavorable to His Majesty the Pope were spread by Bishop Eldo..."
"Puman, what are you talking nonsense about?" Erdo heard Puman's words and looked at Puman excitedly.
"What I said is true. If you don't believe it, I can provide recording evidence to prove that what I said is true," Pullman said.
"Play the recording." Mobius said calmly.
Then, a voice came from the speakers in Oracle Square.
"Puman, you are my most trusted subordinate. I give you a task, and you must help me complete it."
"You arrange for people to spread the news that Mobius is the illegitimate son of Pope Francis."
"We must keep this matter secret and don't let anyone find out."
…
Sequences of conversations between Erdo and Pullman were played in this way.
The believers at the scene were first surprised, then suddenly enlightened, and then angry.
Just a few minutes of audio made the believers at the scene explode.
"Eldor, you bastard, how dare you slander His Majesty the Pope!"
"Eldor, you are going to hell!"
"Eldor, go to hell!"
The angry believers kept cursing.
Erdo's face was ashen. He never expected that his most trusted subordinate would betray him, and his son would be held hostage in someone's hands.
He thought he was well prepared to fight Francis to the death today, but he didn't expect that he had already been defeated before the battle even started.
Eldo looked at Francis and found a joking smile on Francis' face.
It turned out that everything he had prepared had been known to him for a long time.
He deliberately made himself shout out those words of objection, and then used some unknown method to prevent himself from saying the rest of the words. Then he allowed himself to see his kidnapped son, and then let Puman betray him.
Now he is in a difficult situation, and even some of the evidence he prepared cannot be produced, because once he produces it, he may never see his son again.
…
This has become a losing situation.
A wry smile appeared on Eldor's face.
He didn't expect that after so long of preparation, he would end up in such a situation.
He became a tool for Mobius to establish his power.
After this incident, the prestige of the new Pope Mobius will be completely established, and he will be nailed to the Holy See's pillar of shame forever.
"Eldor, what else do you want to say?" Mobius asked expressionlessly.
"I...I...I have nothing to say." Erdo said with an ashen face.
"For your own selfish desires, you do not hesitate to slander His Majesty the Pope and betray your own beliefs. People like you are destined to be abandoned by the God of Light. Now I declare that you, Erdo, are a heretic!!" Mobiu
Si said loudly.
There were bursts of cheers at the scene.
"Infidel, infidel!" People chanted the word "infidel".
Eldor clenched his fists. For a devout believer like him, the word "infidel" was tantamount to murder, but he had no way to fight back...
"Templar, take down the heretics." Mobius shouted.
Several Templars walked up to Eldor, held down Eldor's hands, and stuffed a ball of cotton into Eldor's mouth to prevent Eldor from committing suicide.
Just when the Templars were about to take Eldor away, Mobius said, "Don't take him away, let him stay here and let him watch me become the Pope!"
As a result, several Templars stopped and controlled Erdo so that he faced the direction of Mobius.
There were bursts of cheers at the scene.
People are very satisfied with the strong performance of Mobius. Only such strong and strategizing people are qualified to become the new leaders of the Holy See of Light.
"Please continue our ceremony." Mobius said to the priest presiding over the ceremony.
"Okay!" The priest nodded.
Afterwards, the ceremony continued.
Mobius continued to press his hand on the Bible and chant.
After a few minutes like this, Mobius stopped chanting.
Later, the priest who presided over the ceremony said, "The great God of Light shone divine light on Mobius. Mobius was baptized by divine light and gained divine power. From today on, Mobius will become the new
The incarnation of the God of Light in the human world, please His Majesty Mobius put on the crown and take the Scepter of Light..."
Mobius raised the corners of his mouth slightly and stretched out his hand towards the crown.
