The night is full of the sky. There is no brilliance, only the deepest darkness, wandering quietly between heaven and earth. Under the shadow of this wandering darkness, even the Vatican Cathedral, which used to be illuminated by the brilliance, has become extremely gloomy.

In fact, the gloom of the cathedral is no longer a matter of two days. Even when the day strikes, people passing by the cathedral can notice that there seems to be a strange atmosphere permeating from the interior of the cathedral. That kind of Qi is very strange. As long as you get close to it, you will feel like you are in hell and full of fear.

"Is Cade dead? The Chinese heresy began to stir up the authority of my holy see again? " At this moment, inside the church, carved by Bernini and supported by four spiral copper pillars, under the five story bronze canopy, there is an old man in a moon white robe sitting on the altar, looking at a cardinal in a red robe lying on the ground around the altar, and then with a light expression: "what are you preparing for the eastern expedition What's going on? "

If Lin Bai were here, he would surely find that the Pope who took over from Benedict XVI is far superior to his predecessor in terms of breath alone! His hair is thick and white, his face is white and crystal clear, and his eyes are as deep as the vast starry sky. Sitting on the altar, his hands and feet flicker like a God in the dust.

Under his questioning, the head of the Cardinal was lowered to the ground, and he did not dare to look directly at him. It seemed that even Yu Guang's contact was disrespectful to the pope!

"The glory of my LORD lives in heaven forever, and the boundless holy fire will sweep the whole world!" After a long silence, one of the Cardinals rose slowly and said respectfully, "according to your instructions, your holiness, we have started to select the people who can master the inheritance of the holy disciples' skills in the Holy See. Thanks to the Glorious Blessing of our Lord, we have found many people."

"If you do well, it's not enough to rely on these people to deal with him. I want you to select more people as soon as possible to enrich the inside information of my holy see." Hearing this, the Pope nodded slowly, obviously satisfied with what the cardinal named John had done.

"My Lord is glorious. I will try my best to do these things and let the glory of the Holy See spread to the world!" After getting the Pope's affirmation, there was a flash of joy on John's face, and then he said respectfully.

After ruowang's words fell, the altar fell into a dead silence again. Everyone was holding their breath, and even their breath was as weak as the sound of ants crawling. It seemed that they were afraid to disturb the Pope.

At this time, along the outside of the altar, there was a sudden noise, like a war drum! Every time the sound rings out, it falls directly on people's heart, which makes people's heart vibrate constantly.

After hearing this sound, the cardinals in the hall, who should hold their breath and concentrate, suddenly became strange, and their heads were drooping deeper and deeper, as if they had guessed who the owner of the footsteps was!

The sound of footsteps is getting closer and closer, but compared with these sounds, it is the dazzling brilliance that enters the altar faster! Just after a few breath, the inner part of the holy see is completely occupied by the bright light, which makes the whole Holy See shine like day, with a sense of entering heaven!

Under the dazzling light, more than ten figures appeared slowly, and their costumes were totally different from those of the Cardinals on the ground. The color of their clothes was the same as that of the Pope, but different from that of the Pope, there was an octagonal cross embroidered on their left shoulder!

If there are historical researchers who are familiar with the tradition of the Vatican here, they will be surprised to find that the clothes of these white robed people who appear in the Vatican at this moment are all showing them. They were an organization that existed in the Vatican in the middle ages and now has completely disappeared!

And this organization is the Templar order, which was praised and criticized in the history of the Holy See!

The Knights Templar, originated in 1119. At the beginning, the Knights Templar was just a small organization which was originated from the temple mountain to protect the Pilgrims and attack the infidels. There were only nine members! Later, the order was officially supported by the Vatican, and was given numerous privileges to the order, and changed its name to the order of templars!

Under the privilege, the scale of the Knights Templar is constantly expanding, and it has become the most fierce pawn of the Vatican inquisition, and the most effective group of people in the Crusade! Under the pressure of the knights, I don't know how many people have been tried as heretics and punished by fire!

It is precisely because of the cruelty and strictness of the Templar order that two hundred years after the establishment of this organization, Pope Clement V, who was in the Vatican of Avignon, was forced to disband the Templar order under the pressure of Philip IV of the French caper Dynasty!

But now, after more than 700 years, the order of the templars is back in the world!Moreover, after 700 years and the appearance of the order of templars, the cardinals who prostrate on the ground became more nervous. Except for the Bishop John, who had been praised by the pope before, other people showed a look of trembling, completely lost the previous high-ranking look, and were helpless like sheep, even in the eyes of many people Eyes, there is fear and fear, seems to be extremely afraid of the Knights Templar!

The reason why these Cardinals are so simple! Because no matter from the establishment of the Templars or today, 700 years later, there is only one person that the Templars are loyal to, that is, the Pope sitting on the altar. They are only responsible to the Pope, and no one else has the right to command them.

In short, the existence of the Templar order is a sharp blade held by the Pope, and it is also a sharp blade connected with his blood and flesh. As long as the Pope's hand is in the direction, it is the direction of the blade!

The most important thing is that today's Templar order is very different from the Templar order of the past. Now all the members of the Templar order are selected by the Vatican through layer upon layer selection. No matter which one of them is the most core and powerful existence of the Vatican!

In a sense, the existence of these people is the mainstay of the Holy See. It is precisely because of these people that the Holy See can have today's glory and the Pope can raise the flag of the Crusade again!

The Pope and the Knights Templar are a unified whole, and an independent party to use each other! Because of the arrangement of the Pope, these talents can obtain the inheritance of the secret arts and have strong ability; and because of the strong strength of these people, the Pope can firmly hold the power of the Holy See and make him the real master of this huge thing!

Therefore, compared with the original Benedict XVI, today's Pope is countless times stronger than him in terms of power alone. Even within the Vatican, there are rumors that this pope is the successor to the one who launched the Fourth Crusade, forcing the kings of England, Denmark, Portugal, Switzerland and other countries to bow down and give the Vatican power The second totalitarian pope after the peak of the power of innoson III!

Even from the strength in his hands alone, the Franciscan Pope is more terrifying than Innocent III!

Under such a situation, what are the reasons for these Cardinals not to pay homage to the Pope and to comply unconditionally with all his royal decrees?! What's the reason not to fear the Knights Templar, who are like the sharp blades held by the Pope?!

"If I remember correctly, Cade should be bishop morricha. Did you recommend him to the order of knights?" And just after all the members of the Templars stood still, along with the crowd of the knights, suddenly there was a voice of incomparable indifference. Then from the crowd, there was a man with a big figure and covered with holy light. He looked directly at the cardinals who were crawling on the ground and didn't even dare to take a breath. With a very casual tone, he made a faint voice.

The damned knights, why does my Lord give them so many gifts?! When he said this, the audience fell into silence, and cardinal moricha, who was named by the man, had a slight twitch in the corner of his mouth, a constant trembling in the corner of his eyes, and a sharp contraction in his pupils, as if he felt some unknown danger.

"I recommended Cade, and I sent him to China to take part in the Zhongshan contest!" After a long silence, cardinal moricha got up in a hurry, looked at the Franciscan on the altar with breathless eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Your holiness, I swear that this is my last mistake, and I will never make any more mistakes from now on."

"God has compassion for the world, but he has no pity for those who have made mistakes, especially those who have defiled the glory of our Lord in heaven." Without waiting for Pope Francis to speak, the man in the order of templars was indifferent and said in a cold voice, "because of your mistake, the Holy See has lost face in the East and become a laughing stock. Do you think this is still a mistake?"

"Commander Bertrand, please pay attention to your words. Don't forget, I'm a cardinal and you're just a knight!" Cardinal morricha was stunned at the words. He immediately uttered a stern voice and said to the patriarch, "Your holiness, please give me a chance!"
