I really can't control myself.

Chapter 622

The headquarters of the Church of Light is located in the holy city of Cortona. There is a huge inland sea in the middle of the entire continent. The largest peninsula on the inland sea is called the Vila Peninsula, and the holy city of Cortona is at the southernmost point of the Vila Peninsula. , a city surrounded by the sea on three sides, of course it is also the place closest to the birthplace of gods that they boasted.

According to the Church of Light, there is an unknown island of gods in the middle of the central inland sea in the middle of the mainland, where the gods were born, and the southernmost tip of the Vila Peninsula is the closest to this island.Regarding this statement, Linton also studied in depth, and found that no one has really discovered the so-called God's Island so far. Anyway, it is very illusory, just like the legend of Penglai Island in China.

One way to get to the holy city of Cortona is by boat. The St. Veland Empire still has a section of border line that relies on the central inland sea, and there is also a port, so you can go directly by boat.Of course, another more convenient way is... teleportation circle.Yes, the church itself will build a magic circle. Of course, the holy city of Cortona also has a magic circle, and there are quite a lot of cities leading to it.

Of course, Linton chose the teleportation formation. After all, he was going to be late. It took about 20 days to arrive by boat. At that time, it was not only the Holy Day ceremony, but also the church annual meeting was too early.

By the time Linton arrived in the holy city of Cortona, it was already the morning of January 1st, which was the day of the Holy Ritual.Of course, Linton has not been idle these days. Doesn’t this mean that the Cthulhu Church has been holding back big plans for a month? I just wandered around a few cities in a few days, chose the place, and designed the monster by the way. When the time comes to start the action, I just need to open a portal and throw the card directly.

Because of the approaching of the ritual day, the holy city of Cortona has actually implemented control, because there are too many people who want to participate in the ceremony here.As soon as Linton and his party left the teleportation formation, they were stopped by people from the church, who of course asked Linton about their identities.Of course, it was a group of people, and only Linton came. Although Linton was followed by a few people who looked like guards, they were actually just people separated by Linton using the avatar technique.

That's right, Linton used the avatar technique instead of the shadow avatar technique. The people created by the avatar technique are incapable of fighting, and they will disperse when touched, which is closer to the level of illusion. Of course, Linton didn't use them to fight in the first place. , the main reason is that it is too noisy to use the shadow clone, but the clone technique does not have this trouble, this group of people is indeed just a clone.

"Your Majesty, Linton Melloway." Linton also directly reported his family name, and the Holy See knight who asked Linton had obviously heard of this name.

"Is it Lord Juggernaut?" The other party looked at Linton in surprise, "The Pope has been looking forward to your visit."

"Hmm..." Linton nodded indifferently when he heard this, and then directly asked about other things, "That's right, I have something very important now, and I need to talk to Melissa from your church , I wonder if we can meet now?"

"Melissa? Are you talking about Priest Melissa?" The knight was stunned for a moment and asked.

"Well, yes." Linton nodded.

"Master Juggernaut, the ceremony is about to begin. The priest is currently making preparations, so he probably won't be able to see you now." The knight said, "I don't know what you have to do. I can inform you now."

"Where is the ceremony?" Linton asked.

"My lord, please come with me." The knight led Linton to the gate of the teleportation circle. Linton also saw the whole picture of the holy city of Cortona for the first time.The location of the teleportation array is not bad. It is located in the center of the city. The first thing Linton saw was a straight avenue paved with white stones in front of him, running through the entire city. Go to a huge church building on the hill ahead.

Although separated by a little distance, Linton can also see that the huge church over there should be the headquarters of the Church of Light. The huge platinum building is magnificent and magnificent, just looking at it has a wonderful sense of holiness. It would emit a divine light, and even Linton had to marvel at the beauty of the building, and even felt it was a pity that it exploded.

"Where is the grand ceremony held?" Linton asked, pointing to the cathedral in the distance.

"No, my lord, look over there." The knight pointed to the other side, and Linton turned his head to look, and found that the other side of the white road led to a circular square on the coast, which was built on the cliff above the sea , is also an extremely beautiful and sacred large square. In the middle of the square is a huge statue, an old man in a robe, with his hands open as if he wants to embrace the movement. Although he doesn't know who it is, just look at the statue I think this is a great person.

"There is the sacristy platform, and it is also the southernmost tip of the Vera Peninsula, the closest to the island of the gods," said the knight.

Linton understood. Isn’t it said that the place where the gods were born is the Island of Gods? The grand ceremony must be held at the place closest to the Island of Gods, which is the southernmost location in Cortona City. After all, you are worshiping the gods. Be sure to face the direction where God is.

"Soon His Excellency the Pope will follow this holy path all the way to the sacristy stand at the southern end, where the grand ceremony will be held." The Knight Exchange reported.

This is the first time Linton has heard of this process. Originally, he wanted to go directly to the main forum, but he didn't expect that the other party would come out on his own initiative. This is a good thing.After thinking about it, Linton asked, "Will Melissa come too?"

"Uh..." The knight looked at Linton a little strangely, but still replied, "Of course, not only Lady Melissa, but all the adults of the church will go to the altar."

"Then I understand." Linton nodded, and then signaled the knight to leave.

The knight in charge of the reception here felt a little strange. Of course, this matter still had to be reported, so he quickly reported it to the church.At this time, the grand ceremony is about to start, and the pope is busy with matters related to the grand ceremony. He is not surprised to hear the following report that Linton has come. After all, it is the face of the church. It is strange that Linton does not come. Although he also has a lot of things to ask Linton, but now the ceremony is more important, and he will summon Linton after the ceremony is over.

Similarly, Melissa also received a report that Linton had come, and it seemed that she had specifically mentioned important matters to her.Of course Melissa also wanted to see Linton, but now was really not the time.Yes, she is also busy with the grand ceremony, and this grand ceremony is particularly important to her. You must know that she has already appointed the highest priest, and this will be announced after the church annual meeting, so this time the god The Ritual Ceremony is tantamount to her first appearance in front of the congregation as the highest priest. This is a very important matter, so even if she wants to meet Linton now and ask what is important, she must wait until the Ceremony after.

Of course, Melissa was a little strange, because after carefully asking the knight in charge of the reception, Linton specifically mentioned that she wanted to see her, which should be related to the sealed book, but she can't do anything now, let's wait until after the ceremony .

Soon, it was almost noon, the ceremony was about to begin, and the Holy See's team was also preparing to set off for the sacristy platform in the south of the city.

At this time, the city of Cortona was already surrounded by believers of the Church of Light, and the whole city seemed a bit crowded.The team of the Illuminati Church set off from the cathedral on the hill, and there were almost a thousand people in the team.The leader is of course the contemporary Pope. Behind him, the elders of the church, cardinals, bishops of various regions, and chiefs of various institutions are arranged in order according to their respective positions, followed by a large number of church knights.

The church team marched south along the holy path in the middle, not very fast, like patrolling the streets.And when the pope's team came to the front, the believers on the holy path in the middle would spontaneously retreat to both sides of the road to worship, and automatically give way to the troops in the middle.

The scene was very spectacular. Under the worship of countless believers, the church team slowly sneaked along the holy path in the middle, a scene full of rituals and piety.However, to everyone's surprise, at this moment, someone actually interrupted the ceremony.

The Holy See's team stopped, to be precise, they were stopped.Originally, when they came here, the people around them automatically retreated to both sides of the road, but there was one person who stayed in the middle of the road. Of course, it was particularly conspicuous. Everyone looked at the person who stayed behind.

Pope St. Reno frowned slightly. It is not uncommon for people to make trouble on Holy Days, but they are really rare. People who come to the Holy City will be screened, and it is difficult for enemies of the church to get in. He didn't dare to mess with the church at all. If he troubled the church at this time, he would definitely be retaliated wildly by the church.

Although he was a little angry, San Reno held back temporarily and asked, "Your Excellency..."

The person who appeared was of course Linton, and he ignored the person who looked like the Pope at all, but directly shouted to the team in front: "Melissa! Are you there?"

"Lord Linton?" Although Melissa hadn't officially taken office, she was now standing in the position of the highest priest, not far behind the pope. When she heard the voice, she stepped forward and looked, only to find that it was Linton.

"You are Melissa?" Linton stared at him dangerously as if seeing Melissa for the first time, "The sealed book is in your hands, right?"

"You're not Linton!" Melissa suddenly realized, and said, "Who the hell are you?"

"It seems that it is indeed you, that's right." Linton laughed directly and sinisterly.

"Catch him!" The pope next to him saw that he was wrong, and said quickly.

At this time, Linton was also ready to make a move.
