Chapter 384: Lord Pope, you have exposed your secret! The virgin white silk stockings of the saint!
"It's true, Your Majesty the Pope~ Why do you want me to convey the message to Kailisi? She obviously knows that I have a grudge against that guy!"
Wen Nishan received the message from Lu After receiving the instructions from Xiya, she couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
As the princess of the Theocracy of the Sun, she and Cailixi, who is the granddaughter of the cardinal, have always been in a competitive relationship and naturally cannot deal with each other.
Now, Lucia asked her to notify Cailixi, which gave her a headache.
But as the Pope's order, she could not refuse and could only accept it silently.
Wen Nishan walked slowly to the window, gently snapped her fingers, and saw a white dove arriving in response, landing docilely on her palm.
“Go~”
Wen Nishan released the dove and invited Kailisi to the Land of Light Judgment in her name.
But as soon as she released the dove, she immediately noticed something strange in Lucia's order.
She didn't understand why her Lord Pope invited Kelisi to the Land of Light Judgment, which was an area used to punish criminals. Kelisi was not a criminal.
The only possibility is the characteristic of the Land of Light Judgment - Forbidden Demon!
But the problem is, Kailisi is a saint with the highest physical strength in the Holy See of Light!
Even with the forbidden power of magic and faith, she can still fight an adult earth dragon!
In the Land of Light Judgment, Lucia, who has lost the power of magic and faith, is probably no match for Kailisi!
Then...
A sly smile suddenly appeared on Wen Nishan's sunny and pretty face, as if she had already seen through the Pope's intentions and was very much looking forward to the development of the plot that would unfold next.
“There’s a good show to watch~”
……
Time flies and it’s afternoon.
Su Xuan led the guild members to complete three daily tasks, and also tested the two newly obtained guild achievement badges - [Moonlight Paradise] and [Blue Heart Sea].
The effects of these two guild achievement badges require specific triggering conditions, so their practicality is far less than the previous [Pure Saint], [Silver Desire], and [Succubus Breeder].
After consideration, Su Xuan decided to temporarily replace the two new badges and store them in the guild's 'Achievements Exhibition'.
Immediately afterwards, Su Xuan started to summarize the guild's resources.
Currently, his 'Puff Fantasyland' guild has a total of 489 gold coins, as well as several silver and copper coins.
There are 186W experience points and 37 sublimation crystals in the experience pool.
"It seems that Lucia and the others must complete their challenge as soon as possible." Su Xuan whispered to himself and turned to the entry database.
At this time, there was only one entry in the entry library - "emptiness", but this entry always made him a little... uneasy?
“Hoo~”
After Su Xuan breathed a long sigh of relief, he stood up and prepared to go to the Holy See of Light with Lucia.
This actually made him a little excited. After all, he had never been to the main hall of the Holy See of Light.
"Lucia, we..."
When Su Xuan was about to set off, he found that Lucia was missing.
“?”
He was stunned for a second, turned to look at Verola and Alice who were sitting in the hall, playing with Xueer, and asked doubtfully: "Where are the Lucians?"
Alice raised her head, blinked and replied: "Sister Lucia? She should be in the Starry Sky Cinema."
"?"
Su Xuan heard Alice's After answering, he was stunned for a moment, and then walked quickly to the room of Star Cinema.
Since the guild expanded the Starry Sky Cinema, it has become a good place for guild members to go in their spare time.
Among them, Lucia particularly loves this new area. She often stays here for several hours, and she prefers to watch some retro literary films.
Other members would occasionally enter the Star Cinema, but Evesha only went in once.
That time, she went in to find Su Xuan, but failed to find him as she wished, so she left in despair.
Boom!
Su Xuan gently knocked on the door of Star Cinema, and Lucia's voice came from behind the door: "Come in."
He pushed the door in and saw Lu Siya was sitting on the sofa in the theater, staring intently at the curtain in front of her.
As for what's playing in the theater...
Tom and Jerry?
Su Xuan walked to Lucia and reminded softly: "Lucia, it's time for us to set off."
"Yes."
Lucia He nodded, closed the theater, stood up calmly, and took Su Xuan to the Holy See of Light.
With a flash of white light, they teleported to the location of the Holy See of Light.
As soon as he gained a foothold, Su Xuan found himself in a majestic palace.
He looked up and saw that the palace area was at least more than 10,000 square meters, empty and solemn. Taking a step forward, the sound of footsteps echoed in the empty palace, as if the entire space was responding to his arrival.
The four walls of the palace are painted a golden yellow like the sun, and are carved with various complex patterns. Every detail reveals delicacy and grandeur.
In the center of the palace, a golden throne lies quietly on the high steps.
It exudes dazzling golden light, as if the focus of the entire palace is gathered on this throne, and it seems to be waiting for someone to arrive.
"Where is this?" Su Xuan looked around, his eyes full of curiosity, but he also vaguely guessed the answer.
"The main hall of the Holy See of Light." Lucia replied succinctly, with still no expression on her face.
"You brought me here..." Su Xuan turned his head and stared at Lucia, "Aren't you afraid of being punished by the Pope?"
Lucia glanced at him lightly, Said: "No."
Then he said, "Go quickly, I'll wait for you here."
"Aren't you coming together?" Su Xuan raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise.
Lucia shook her head slightly and explained: "Wen Nishan will take you to the place of light judgment, and I will help you hold the Pope here."
She Although her tone was understated, her eyes revealed a kind of confidence, as if she would go all out to stop the Pope.
“Okay.”
Su Xuan shrugged helplessly, and then walked quickly towards the entrance of the palace.
When he came to the entrance of the palace, the saint with white silk stockings had been waiting at the entrance of the palace for a long time.
“Let’s go.” Wen Nishan said briefly, then turned around and started to lead the way for Su Xuan.
Along the way, Wen Nishan's eyes fell on Su Xuan from time to time. She seemed to be full of interest in Su Xuan's every move.
Su Xuan felt her gaze and couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable. In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, he took the initiative to talk: "White Silk Saint, are you and Lucia very good friends?"
“Just call me Wen Nishan.” Wen Nishan responded with a smile, “My relationship with Lucia is indeed very good, much better than the other six saints.”
“That’s it~”
Hearing this, Su Xuan’s doubts dissipated a little.
He continued to ask: "Can I take the liberty of asking you some questions?"
"You ask." Wen Nishan smiled and encouraged Su Xuan to continue asking questions.
"What does Lucia usually like to do?" Su Xuan asked a seemingly ordinary question.
“She has been busy with the affairs of the Holy See.” Wen Nishan sighed softly, and then said, “In her free time, she likes to read books or watch operas.”
Su Xuan nodded, paused for a moment, and then asked again: "Then...when Lucia is not in the Holy See occasionally, does she also ask you to take care of the Holy See of Light?"
"Well, yes." Wen Nishan nodded with a smile, but as soon as she finished her answer, she noticed something was wrong.
She suddenly looked up at Su Xuan, and saw a subtle arc on the corner of Su Xuan's mouth, as if everything was as he expected.
“I didn’t expect you to be so beautiful and pretty, but you could be so evil-minded!” Wen Nishan stopped angrily and glared at Su Xuan, but her heart was full of fear.
If Lucia knew that it was her own stupidity that led to her identity being exposed, then she would be doomed!
"Don't worry, I won't tell Lucia." Su Xuan smiled lightly, confirming his suspicion in his heart.
In fact, he had already had doubts about Lucia's true identity.
Among the seven saints of the Holy See of Light, there is no saint named Lucia.
Therefore, his attention naturally turned to the Pope of Light.
However, today’s pope is not named “Lucia”, but is respectfully called “Holy Grace” Pope.
Although Lucia's true identity remains mysterious, the statue of the Pope of Light provides some clues.
Even though Lucia wearing the papal robe was slightly different from her image in his guild, he could recognize her beautiful face at a glance.
In other words, it could be said that Lucia could not hide her identity from the beginning, because Su Xuan had already seen her true appearance under the white gauze.
Su Xuan is different from others, he can only see Lucia’s disguise!
As for why he has never revealed this secret, the reason is simple - Lucia does not want the world to know her dual identity, so as not to bring unnecessary confusion to the Holy See of Light.
The dignified Pope of Light is working for the adventurers... No matter what you think, it will cause turmoil in the Holy See of Light!
“Really?” Wen Nishan’s smile bloomed like a spring flower when she heard that Su Xuan was willing to keep this secret for her.
"Yes." Su Xuan nodded lightly and gave a positive reply.
"Huh~" Wen Nishan breathed a long sigh of relief, with a relaxed and happy smile on her face. She smiled and said to Su Xuan, "You know what? You are the first person I have ever seen. , a man who has such a close relationship with the Pope!”
“Really?”
When Su Xuan heard Wen Nishan’s words, he couldn’t help feeling proud.
“Yes~”
Wen Nishan continued: "Since that incident, the Pope has always maintained a cold attitude of not disturbing strangers. Just approaching her makes people feel like stepping into the frost of winter. ! Therefore, some senior officials in the Guangming Holy See had a lot of criticism and complaints about her."
"..."
Su Xuan listened quietly and carefully analyzed Wen Nishan's every statement. One sentence.
From her description, he clearly felt that Lucia's position in the Holy See of Light was not stable, and many forces were secretly coveting her position.
"What about you?" Su Xuan asked curiously, "What made you choose to side with Lucia?"
When Wen Nishan heard this question, a strange light flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she replied: "Maybe it's because of my admiration for the strong. The Pope is the only person who I can convince myself of losing. Her Her strength and wisdom are far beyond my imagination!"
"Oh? How powerful is she?" Su Xuan was intrigued by Wen Nishan's words and even slowed down his journey to the place of light. pace.
"She..." Wen Nishan smiled slightly and began to tell Su Xuan about Lucia's past while leading the way.
From Wen Nishan's description, Su Xuan understood that Lucia's ability to sit on the throne of the Pope of Light was a result of a brutal battle and countless blood and tears to reach the peak.
Moreover, the only helper beside Lucia was the demigod-level golden dragon, but on the eve of her ascending to the throne, she also fell into a pool of golden blood.
But when talking about the details, Wen Nishan looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak to Su Xuan, because behind this was the taboo secret of the Holy See of Light.
"So~"
Wen Nishan sighed helplessly, spread her hands to Su Xuan, and said: "The Pope usually keeps a certain distance from others. If you If you work harder, maybe you can have a chance to hold hands with her~"
"? Hold hands?"
When Su Xuan heard this, there was a look of surprise on his face.
The relationship between him and Lucia does not seem to stop at the superficial level of holding hands. It may be that they have touched every possible place...
Cough~
Su Xuan coughed lightly He made a sound, then touched the tip of his nose lightly, and responded: "Actually, I held her hand a long time ago."
"Really or not!?"
Wen Nishan's voice was full of surprise, and she immediately took Su Xuan's hand and carefully wrapped his big hand with her hands as smooth as fine porcelain.
Her eyes flashed with disbelief, and she continued to ask: "How long have you known the Pope? But I have known her for several years, but I have never had such an opportunity!"
Su Xuan paused for a moment. She pondered, and then explained to Wen Nishan: "That was...an accident."
"Exactly." When Wen Nishan heard that it was just an accidental contact, she sneered and relaxed with a little disgust. Opened Su Xuan's palm.
She continued: "The Pope and I once lightly touched her skin with our fingertips when handing over items. What does that mean?"
Su Xuan smiled. He smiled, didn't argue with her, just nodded slightly in agreement.
But I was secretly surprised that this white silk saint's admiration for Lucia was beyond words, she was like a little fan girl!
“We’re here.” Wen Nishan suddenly stopped and pointed forward.
Su Xuan looked in the direction of her finger and saw an area shrouded in golden light in front of him.
The dazzling light shrouded tens of thousands of square meters of ground, making it impossible for people to see the specific scene inside. They could only feel the golden stream of light constantly flowing.
“Is this the place of light judgment?”
Su Xuan stared at the dazzling golden field ahead, with a look of disbelief on his face.
He could clearly feel the solemnity and sanctity of the Land of Light Judgment. The bright light contained endless sacred power, which was awe-inspiring.
“Take this!”
At this moment, Wen Nishan handed a pair of white stockings to Su Xuan’s hand.
“This is...?”
Su Xuan was stunned for a moment, his eyes moved down, and he instantly realized that this was the original white silk stockings that Wen Nishan had just taken off, carrying her body scent!
“This is a little gift from me.” Wen Nishan showed a bright smile to Su Xuan and explained, “It may help you in your duel with Kailixi. A helping hand. But one thing I have to say in advance is that you have to use it carefully and don’t let it get damaged! Remember to return it to me after use!”
