Chapter 338 Pope
Climbing up a thousand steps, the tall temple stands in front of you.

The whole body of the temple is made of white jade, exuding a holy and soft brilliance.

Jiang Ge recognized that it was clearly the effect caused by the collection of a large number of brilliant crystals.

According to his estimation, probably more than [-]% of the glorious crystals in this holy city were used in this temple.

Before the temple, Jiang Ge also met the Pope of the Radiant Church that Isabeth said.

It was a tall, middle-aged man with gray hair, wearing a robe with white and gold patterns on his body, a golden crown inlaid with shining crystals, and holding the top of a golden scepter in his hand. Just standing there gave people A sense of incomparable majesty.

But when Jiang Ge's gaze focused on his face, he found that his face was unexpectedly soft amidst the rough contours, which made people want to get closer.

This pope seems to be a little different from what he thought before.

Jiang Ge thought silently.

From the perspective of his Void Eye, more than 80.00% of the pope's body has undergone photochemical phenomena, and it is almost integrated with the temple.

Richard said before that the pope could not leave the temple, it was indeed not a lie.

If it is said that this temple is a suppressive thing that blocks the passage to the sun wreckage, then the pope is the core of this temple.

Without his existence, this temple cannot really function.

"I have seen His Majesty the Pope," Jiang Ge slightly bowed sideways.

Isabeth and Richard on the side followed closely behind.

"Our saint, you are here at last," the pope responded with a chuckle.

His eyes were filled with a sense of vicissitudes and exhaustion, as well as inexplicable joy.

Because you saw me?

Jiang Ge thought to himself, he thought that this alien pope would reject him very much.

It does not appear to be the case now.

Jiang Ge scanned the temple from the outside, and finally settled on the Pope.

"His Holiness seems to be pleased with my presence?"

"The saints are the manifestation of the glorious will, and I am naturally delighted to carry the oracle." The Pope replied.

"Because of this temple?" Jiang Ge walked to the Pope's side and looked towards the temple.

The Pope smiled and turned around to look at the temple side by side with Jiang Ge, "You can see it."

"It's not hard to see," Jiang Ge paused, and said softly, "This temple is about to fail."

What is suppressed below the temple is the passage to the wreck of the sun.

Thinking back to the scene where everything he saw in the place where the sun fell was covered in darkness.

It is self-evident what will happen if this temple is destroyed.

"Yeah, this temple is about to fail," Pope Guanghui said with a strong sense of exhaustion in his tone, and then he smiled and said to Jiang Ge, "Come with me."

Jiang Ge was a little confused, but he didn't refuse and followed.

On both sides of the road entering the temple, a large number of murals are depicted on it.

With Jiang Ge's eyesight, he quickly scanned the contents of the mural.

To his surprise, these murals were not eulogizing the greatness and holiness of the Lord of Radiance, but seemed to depict the scene when the second mountain and sea had just been opened.

In the first painting, the sun, which symbolizes the supreme light, falls into the ocean.

In the second painting, the loving mother holding the cradle conceived the earth on the wreckage of the sun. The place where the sun fell became the center of the earth. Alien ancestors.

In the third painting, the last spark of the ancient sun wreckage is extinguished, and the light is separated from the sun wreckage. At the same time, darkness is born, and the endless darkness turns into a tide, gushing out from the sun wreckage and spreading in all directions .

In the fourth painting, living on the earth, the surviving alien race knelt on the ground, prayed to a dazzling light, and was then given something.

In the fifth painting, countless corpses are piled up. The ancient ancestors of different races, using the corpses of the same race, pushed forward bit by bit to the center of darkness, suppressed it, and built a temple made of corpses.

In the sixth painting, a huge city was built around the temple, and another person in the temple knelt on the ground with his head bowed, wearing a robe that was very similar to the style of the pope today, with an extremely humble expression. posture, under a mass of holy light, took over the scepter...

The six murals swept through his eyes one by one.

Jiang Ge had a clear understanding in his heart. What was depicted in this mural was the process of building the temple and the holy city.

"Is this the price of becoming the Pope?" Jiang Ge asked softly as he followed the slowly advancing Pope.

"It's not a price, but a responsibility." The Pope of Glory shook his head and laughed, "We, the people of glory, were saved by the glory to worship our Lord. The pope is the link between our Lord and the people of glory, and carries out our The will of the Lord, leading the group to survive on this glorious land..."

"But as time went by, the darkness that was suppressed underground in the holy city grew stronger without our knowledge, until No. A temple seal that was built at the cost of countless blood by the ancient ancestors has broken..."

"No.60 The seven popes summoned the most talented formation masters among the people of glory, trying to restore the seal...but all failed..."

"After discussing with everyone, I came to a conclusion that simple repairs can no longer meet the needs of the seal. There must be living people as the core of the seal to control the seal, so that the seal can continue..."

"So, after that, among the pope's responsibilities, there is an additional responsibility to maintain the seal."

Jiang Ge nodded while listening to the Pope's narration.

Although the glorious pope omitted many things, he also somewhat beautified them.

But through the examples before us, it is actually not difficult to see that the so-called use of living people as the core of the seal is actually a kind of sacrifice in essence.

It's just relatively mild.

As the core, the Pope can still preserve his own existence. If the darkness born of the sun's wreckage does not riot, they may still live to the end of their lives.

Of course, if there is a riot, the appointment will not last long.

After all, it is integrated with the seal and becomes the core, but it consumes the soul all the time. If it mobilizes its power again, the consumption will be even greater.

Jiang Ge didn't ask why he didn't ask Lord Guanghui to take action.

He can think of it, can others not think of it?
It must have been prayers, even thousands of prayers, that went unanswered.

For these beings, responsiveness has never existed.
