After listening to Pope Eugene IV's description, Joan of Arc was stunned for a moment, then became alert and asked: "Your Holiness, what do you mean by [cooperation]?"
"What it specifically means is that you please stay in the Holy Land obediently and do not do any unnecessary actions." Eugene IV replied: "Do you know that the successful activation of [Seed of Eden] requires the blood of the saint in addition to the blood of the saint?"
In addition, the presence of the saint is also required. After the saint reaches a certain distance from their blood, for some reason, the holy blood will lose its effect, and even the holy blood itself will slowly decay. Therefore, when we actually implement the plan
At that moment, your presence is absolutely necessary."
So the girl groaned: "If I guessed correctly, you need more than just my blood, right?"
"Correct. According to the records of the ancient documents discovered at the same time as the tree species, the blood of three saints is needed to completely release the ability of the [Seed of Eden] and allow everyone to freely enter and exit the paradise without restrictions."
The Pope smiled, took out a small piece of paper from his arms, and read: "
The first saint, the saint who led the revolution, the embodiment of straightforward love, the nurturing blood of Mother Earth;
The second saint, the compassionate physician, the embodiment of charity and generosity, the pure blood of the Sky Father;
The third saint, the king sworn to victory, the incarnation of bravery and unyielding, the blood of the heart and soul of the golden will.
Use these three to water the seeds of paradise, and the door to [New Eden] will be opened.
There, people become human. Everything, no harm to others, no harm to things, no fear of darkness, no old age, sickness, life and death, no upside down dreams, no beginning, no end, endless."
He put down the piece of paper and looked at Joan of Arc intently: "As long as the conditions are met, [Paradise] will be completely open to us. From then on, mankind will enter a new era. An era where there will be no more disputes, diseases, pain, and death."
.The other two saints are also on their way to the Vatican. Please be patient until then."
"As expected." Joan of Arc suddenly let out a long sigh.
"really?"
"You may not have noticed that this seemingly beautiful plan is destined to fail." The girl said: "This is different from what was promised. You just want to take a shortcut, but you have forgotten the one who lived 1,400 years ago."
What the Son promised."
"oh?"
"You should know best, Mr. Pope. Fourteen hundred years ago, the Son of God dedicated his life for mankind to wash away mankind's sins and make mankind qualified to enter paradise again." Joan of Arc sighed: "After that, he
What was promised?
------Two thousand years later, that is to say, at least after 2033, he will return again to lead mankind on earth. At the end of time, that will be the [Final Judgment], the day of battle between good and evil and the day of reckoning with everything.
Only after good and evil are completely settled can humans set foot in paradise. But you expect to use this [Seed of Paradise] to take a shortcut and skip the steps of [Final Judgment] to enter Paradise. Do you think God will really sit back and watch this kind of thing?
things happen?"
"Plans cannot keep up with changes. Predetermined plans are inefficient, so God will give us such a revelation and let us get this [Seed of Eden]." The pope argued: "This is a clear revelation that allows us humans to make our own decisions.
Master the way to enter the paradise. This is an act that benefits everyone, and I don’t think there is anything wrong with it.”
"God's plan is perfect, and he has arranged everything from the beginning." Joan of Arc said, "Therefore, it is impossible for him to change his plan midway and give you this kind of revelation. Your plan was probably wrong from the beginning.
The practice of denying God's authority. Hmm. No wonder I have always felt that there is a subtle sense of violation in your words from just now. I see.
Pope, Pope, you claim to be a believer in God and lead tens of millions of believers in this world. However, you don’t believe in your Lord at all, and you don’t believe in the omniscient and omnipotent God. Even the original plan with the Father and the Son
You actually take something that is completely contrary to reality? I think this is not a [Seed of Eden] at all, but a trap used by demons to deceive mortals, right?"
"But the paradise in it is real." The pope replied: "I believe you cannot deny the authenticity of that paradise, Joan of Arc."
"Paradise is real, but the way to enter it is not correct." The saint replied: "Even if you have good intentions, wrong means will only bring wrong results, Your Holiness."
Eugene IV shook his head: "You are more stupid than I thought, Joan of Arc."
"Just think of me as such, Your Holiness." The girl smiled calmly and said, "But don't forget the Lord's teachings. Those who are ultimately qualified to enter paradise are never those arrogant and smart people, but those who are dull, pure, and have firm beliefs.
Lamb. I dare to say that if you don’t repent as soon as possible and are still stubborn and want to take shortcuts, you will definitely not be qualified to enter paradise.”
The expression on Eugene IV's face has not changed, he is still as calm as water. He shook his head: "I am very disappointed in you, Joan of Arc. I originally thought you were a sensible and reasonable person. I didn't expect you.
But he is just a mediocre person who only knows how to blindly follow dogma. So, okay, the negotiation has broken down. There is really nothing left to say between us."
"Indeed." Joan of Arc saw several guards pushing in the door and knew that she was about to be taken away, so she said: "You didn't need to tell me all this from the beginning and persuade me to partner with you. Do you know this?
Possible things. True believers will not pursue such evil ways, but patiently wait for the arrival of the final day of judgment. If you want me to stay in the Holy Land, what you have to do is actually very simple, just put me under house arrest.
.With your strength, no matter how much I struggle, it won’t help, right?”
"Indeed. But I still hope that you want to cooperate with us from the bottom of your heart." The Pope said: "Because you are a true saint, and if you participate in this plan, you will inspire people."
"So your illusion is shattered, Lord Pope." The girl smiled disdainfully.
"You," Pope Eugene IV glanced at the guards, "send the saint back to her room. Watch her closely."
The guards nodded and planned to escort the girl away.
"Garden of Eden." Joan of Arc didn't even resist. She stood up from her seat honestly and said at the same time: "After humans committed the original sin and were expelled from Eden by God, do you still remember what means God used to prevent humans from entering Eden again?"
Dian?"
The Pope blinked and did not answer.
Joan of Arc shook her head: "------He sent his strongest battle angel to guard the gate of the Garden of Eden. That angel holds a holy sword composed of sacred flames and will mercilessly kill anyone who tries to break in.
Those who enter Paradise."
She looked at Pope Eugene IV coldly: "I have seen that Lord Angel with my own eyes. I can still vividly see the fire of the holy sword in his hand. Yes, all the clues are connected. His arrival,
My revolution, your depravity, everything has a reason, it is a cycle of cause and effect.
Lord Gabriel came to earth to prevent you from trespassing into Paradise. If you plan to use unfair means to enter Eden, he will kill you with the holy sword in his hand. Heavenly Father is indeed perfect, everything about him is perfect.
The plans are all perfect. But your plan is doomed to fail."
"We'll see." The Pope said without changing his expression, watching Joan of Arc leave.
At the same time, a young man stood in front of the vampire holding a holy sword. The sword in his hand only had a hilt, and the sword body was made of pure milky white light. It was exactly what Joan of Arc said, "
A holy sword made of sacred flames."
The Holy Sword of Seraph is the sword of judgment. It will not only kill those who trespass into the paradise without permission, but also kill all evil in the world without hesitation.
"Hmm------" Standing in the distance, the Fifth True Ancestor [Plague King---Valendlin], whose chest was pierced by the crystallized spear emitting holy light, smiled ferociously and said without changing his expression.
Slowly pulling out the crystal gun: "Hey, King of Knights, where are your politeness? You attack in the middle of greeting, can you be any more despicable?"
"I don't need to talk about etiquette with a devil like you." Arthur held a sword in one hand, and used an alchemy glove in the other hand to prepare another crystal gun enchanted with [Holy], just waiting for the flaw to be revealed: "You guy
It is the most unforgivable and the source of the Black Death. Therefore, we have nothing to talk about. You can just come and die."
"Hahaha, that's a bit unfair to me, King of Knights." Valendlin sneered and argued: "The Black Death is a natural occurrence, just like every fatal disease in every era in human history.
.I just contributed to it and lent the source of this epidemic to someone. It was the cardinal who really caused the epidemic to spread in a specific place."
Indeed, the main culprit who spread the disease in Corsica was Cardinal Fernandez. That guy used the ability to control familiars obtained from "The Grimoire of the Abyss: Untold Poems" to let the rats carrying the Black Death
The disease was spread on the island of Corsica, causing a large number of civilian deaths. If Elaine's previous statement is true, then Fernandez also used the same method to spread the Black Death throughout the European continent. The reason is unknown------very
It may be for his own personal benefit or the benefit of a certain group.
"Are you claiming that all the blame lies with Fernandez, but that you, who gave the disease to the Cardinal, were not wrong at all?" Arthur asked coldly.
"certainly------"
Whoosh! Before the vampire could finish his words, he took another shot from Arthur's sacred crystal gun, and it hit him in the head.
"Hey, hey, this is too ------"
Whoosh! The three bursts of the crystal gun landed accurately on the vampire's chest, abdomen and right thigh.
"You know what? I don't need to listen to your nonsense. Let's start the fight quickly." Arthur said angrily: "No matter what you say, I will kill you."
"Forget it." The Fifth True Ancestor Valendlin pulled out the crystal gun on his forehead. There was a terrible bloody hole on his head, but he didn't seem to care: "Let's start fighting."
He stepped hard on the floor, and the dungeon floor suddenly collapsed. Old Zuster, who was locked at the end of the dungeon, was left on top, while Arthur and Valendrin fell together, landing thirty yards below.
In the dark cave, the huge underground cave was extremely dark. The few light sources basically came from the weapons in Arthur's hands and the faint light emitted by his legion golems.
The vampire also transformed into a huge black centipede, with a strange purple-black mist emitting from his body.
"It's coming, King of Knights!" the monster roared. (To be continued)
