Chapter 88: The Baptism of the Saints (3)

"Of course, Mary is under the crown of the Lord, and no one can escape the judgment of God. Those who oppose God will be punished." Iliad VIII was also a devout believer in the Church of Light, not to mention his current relationship with the Church of Light. The Pope of the Church of Light stood in front of him. He immediately expressed his attitude to Pope Hodep.

At this time, a young and delicate priest outside the door walked in, said a few words beside Pope Hodp, and then handed a note to Hodp. The Pope immediately looked at Iliad VIII: "Oh, it's such a coincidence. I just received a message that happened to be related to the topic we just talked about, and His Majesty the Emperor should be very interested."

Iliad VIII had a puzzled look: "Can I allow me to know?"

Hodep nodded: "Of course, to continue with what I just said, this noble parliament, I heard that the initiator of the first initiator was a great nobleman of the Cretan Empire, and many of them were your vassals. Now I heard that the people of this noble parliament were planning a conspiracy, and the target was you, His Majesty Iliad VIII."

Hodop put the note on the table: "This is the assassin they put to your side, and they are expected to do it tomorrow night."

Iliad VIII took the note on the table skeptical, and the expression on his face immediately changed drastically. The name written on it was a lover he had been with for several years. When he went to attend the Church of Light this time, he also brought it with him: "What? They? How dare they?"

The lover who has been in love with me for several years and has gained my trust is actually someone else's assassin. The key point of murdering me made Iliad VIII furious. As the emperor, his privacy and the matter between his bed, may be under the surveillance of these people at any time.

Thinking of these ghosts in the dark and staring at me all the time, Iliad VIII felt ashamed and deeply frightened. These guys probably started planning this matter a few years ago.

Hodop sneered: "Of course they dare to launch this conspiracy in Saint Saar City, assassinate you, the great Iliad VIII, and then blame your death on our Church of Light, launch a rebellion throughout the Cretan Empire, and rob the throne that originally belonged to you and should also belong to your son in the future."

Iliad VIII looked at Pope Hodep: "His Majesty, you should never allow this to happen, right?"

Hodp nodded immediately: "Of course, no one who is willing to be magnificent intrigue will tolerate such dirty and despicable conspiracy, let alone the assassination of a good emperor who is wise and virtuous and pity the people. For your safety, I will immediately dispatch the elites of the Knights of Light to guard it. Of course, please cooperate with us. This time we not only need to catch all the rats in the gutter, but also have to find the master behind them."

Hodp looked at Iliad VIII: "Of course, heroes will be sad about beauty, everything will be decided by His Majesty."

Although Iliad VIII had a relatively soft personality, when he was endangered by someone's life, he suddenly felt cruel and his expression became cold: "It's okay, as His Majesty the Pope said, this time we must catch all the mice in the gutter, and there is also this noble parliament."

Iliad VIII never expected that the noble council would actually assassinate himself and fight for control of the Cretan Empire. This really took his own life. Iliad originally just regarded this noble council as a threat, but now it is an endless enemy. They not only want his life, but also the throne under him, which he absolutely cannot give up.

Hodap and Iliad VIII then talked about other topics. Although neither of them continued to discuss in-depth issues on the aristocratic parliament, the two sides had reached an agreement. Iliad VIII needed the support of the Church of Light, and Hodap was hoping to see Iliad VIII move closer to him.

The meeting between the two sides ended in just one hour. Pope Hodep then met several grand dukes, a king and envoys of the Tutan dynasty, and ended his work in a busy day.

For Crete, the affairs of the noble parliament may be a major event that endangers his life and the throne, but for Hodep, it is not worthy of too much attention. At present, the most important thing in the entire Church of Light is of course the baptism of the saints on January 1st.

Apart from this, there is nothing worthy of his dignified pope's attention. The tenth year of the Holy Calendar is about to be the eleventh year of the Holy Calendar. Hodep has ascended the position of the Pope for eight years. In ten years, Hodep is no longer young, and looks particularly old, his eyes become turbid and unclear. He no longer has the energy and strength to ride on a horse and rush for several days.

Standing at his position, money and power could no longer cause any emotional fluctuations in Hodep's feelings. The closer he got to death, Hodep became more pious in his belief in the gods, and he was more convinced that after his death, he could ascend to the kingdom of God and become an apostle of the gods in the kingdom of heaven.

This baptism ceremony was a chance for Hodp. Death was inevitable and there was no need to be afraid. However, being able to live for a while, becoming a living saint, and spread the gospel of the gods was even more eager for Hodp. Hodp looked at the kingdom of heaven in his dreams countless times. He envied the saints and became a descendant of God. God's eyes were always flowing on her.

The envy mixed with jealousy was until the saint was summoned by the gods again and got the mask under the crown of Faros, and it exploded to the peak. He also longed for the attention of the gods, longing for the teaching of divine enlightenment and divine arts. Even if he paid all the price, Hodop would be willing to see the gods.

After Hodp finished his position as a pope, he immediately changed into the simplest gray robe and went to the main hall of the Temple of Light. The praise and ceremony had begun. The back of the temple was full of clergy, and white robe sacrifices could be seen everywhere on the steps below. In the distance, the crowds of believers were shocked, but only the saint and her divine servants could pray in the front.

These god servants were selected from childhood and the daughters of the believers' homes were accompanied by the gods. All the god servants served the gods. After the arrival of the saint, all the god servants were transferred to the name of the saint, and the saints were managed by the saints. The sacrifices and rituals of the Temple of Light were all controlled by the blood descendants of the gods and the saints.
