Chapter 104 Who supports? Who opposes?
"Launch an attack on the rebels!"
The order issued by the captain of the guard made Holt's expression completely frozen on his face.
Why did the captain of the guard issue such an order?
Didn't the Pope order the guards to stop the attack?
Could it be...
Holt's mind quickly flashed through Bailey and other guards' attitudes towards those fanatics.
At this moment, he understood the captain of the guard's mind:
the captain of the guard decided to launch a rebellion himself!
The reason behind it is not difficult to understand.
On the one hand, the work of guarding the Wall of Sighs is indeed quite tormenting.
The long-term and continuous strong humming sound, coupled with the basically isolated environment, is enough to drive some normal people with fragile mental health into madness!
Becoming a guard stationed at the Wall of Sighs seems to have greatly promoted his position, but it also means that his life has come to an end-in order to ensure the confidentiality of the Wall of Sighs, no guard has ever been able to leave the Wall of Sighs and live a normal life!
The captain of the guard naturally wants to change this situation!
And now, the clergy of the church are basically dead or injured!
The church now has no power to control the guards stationed at the Wall of Sighs! !
This is a
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ! ! Not to mention the captain of the guard, even Holt felt his heart beat hard a few times after realizing this.
Who doesn't want to have a higher status? Who doesn't want to feel the feeling of the Pope?
On the other hand, and the most important reason, the order issued by the Pope is too strange.
If the first order is normal, the second order is simply a fantasy!
How could the Pope, who owns the entire city of Varela, give it to an unknown rebel leader?
Even if this rebel leader does have impressive strength.
Under the blessing of the two factors, the captain of the guard naturally had an idea that he shouldn't have.
Holt stood outside the army, silently looking at the saber raised high in the hands of the captain of the guard, which was shining with a cold light, and sighed silently again.
At this moment, he finally realized the darkness that the messenger of God wanted him to see clearly.
The guards stationed at the Wall of Sighs have fallen into such a situation, and the situation inside the church can be imagined!
But at this point, what's the use even if he wakes up?
Listening to the chaotic footsteps coming from afar, Holt slowly closed his eyes with a bit of despair - another group of guards stationed at the Wall of Sighs came. Facing so many guards, even if the other party is the incarnation of the goddess, I'm afraid...
Just as the guards followed the captain's footsteps and took a step forward, a dazzling flash came from the direction of the North Church.
The flash was fleeting, followed by a loud bang!
"Boom!!!"
Along with the broken cement blocks flying everywhere, golden electric snakes swam wantonly on the cement ground.
An inexplicable stench appeared in the surrounding air.
As the explosion slowly dissipated, a man wearing a platinum God's Chosen robe and holding an extremely inconspicuous small pistol slowly walked out of the North Church gate.
The man's right hand was covered with a layer of silver-white substance with a strange luster. At first glance, it looked a bit like metal armor, but its flexibility like a cloth glove denied Holt's guess.
"Everyone."
"Let me introduce myself first, the Chosen One, Chen Fan."
"Let me briefly explain my position."
"I support Xu Huai to become the new Pope of Varela City."
"Who supports? Who opposes?"
...
There was a dead silence.
The captain of the guard standing at the forefront of the army stood still without moving - it was not that he didn't want to move, but that he couldn't make any movements.
At the moment of the explosion, a small arc of electricity drew a twisted arc on the ground and gently touched the metal armor he was proud of.
And then...
Until now, his whole body was numb.
In front of the crowd, the holographic statue that was originally hanging high above the church and was a little blurry suddenly descended, and the texture and details on its surface quickly became clear!
At the same time, Xu Huai, who had been standing motionless in front of the East Church, also took a step and slowly walked down the steps of the church surrounded by a group of believers.
She raised her foot slightly, stepped lightly over the mechanical wreckage left by the priests and bishops on the ground, and finally stood with the Chosen One named Chen Fan.
The priest who was wearing a black robe and was particularly petite was slightly behind the two.
When the face of the holographic statue was completely clear, the three of them also stopped and stood in a position not too close to the army formation, which could prevent the guard captain and the guards from suddenly attacking, and allow these guards to see the true faces of the three people.
So...
after a short wait, a burst of gasps and extremely horrified shouts came from the army formation in front - these guards finally realized the similarities between the holographic statue and Xu Huai.
At this moment, Xu Huai also began his "performance" again.
She had several experiences of pretending to be a messenger of God and was already an old actor. She easily put all the blame on the church.
But... it was slightly different from ordinary believers.
Although they still had reverence for the goddess in their hearts, the guards who were familiar with the methods of the church did not bow down to them.
On the contrary, Xu Huai's position at this time made some guards have endless evil thoughts and desires in their hearts - as long as Xu Huai was solved...
the captain of the guards was one of them.
Under the metal helmet, the captain of the guards bit his back teeth hard, and a trace of cold light flashed in his deep eyes.
When the numbness on his body weakened slightly, he rushed forward and shouted: "Everyone, this is the method of the false god, don't..."
Before the voice fell, a faint blue light flashed in the air.
Then, a loud explosion came from the captain of the guards.
Under the ultra-high temperature of the plasma bullet, the captain of the guards was turned into a pool of ashes before he could make any sound.
The metal armor he was wearing was melted into a shapeless metal ingot in just a moment.
Chen Fan looked at the heart rate monitor chart in the holographic projection that had returned to zero, and sighed softly: "Does anyone else want to express any opinions?"
"..."
There was silence.
The guards who were just about to step forward silently retracted their steps.
What a joke.
The other party has a divine weapon bestowed by the goddess, and the strength of the two sides is obviously not on the same level.
What kind of a hammer is this to resist!
They launched a rebellion to live a more comfortable life, not to rush to die!
In silence, accompanied by the collision of armor, a young voice came from the side:
"Your Holiness."
Outside the army, Holt knelt on one knee and took the lead in stating his position.
The next moment.
The city guards who had lost their will to resist knelt on the ground under the leadership of Holt. Looking at the black muzzle of the gun that was still pointing at them, they expressed their loyalty from the bottom of their hearts:
"Your Holiness!"
"May the Lord be with you!!"
