Chapter 480 The Pope’s Ambition



Queen's Castle.

Juliana soon received a message from the Knight Commander, that is, he was directly rejected by the Pope's daily messenger because of the fatigue and could not meet her, the queen.

Zhu Lina was furious.

She was really angry about all kinds of things today, all because of the Pope.

Although her people were indeed very stupid, she, the queen, seemed to be ignored. The messenger of God came to Athens specifically, but did not even look at the queen and went directly to the Pope.

"Damn it, Felicius!"

"Are you really going to use this messenger of God?"

A terrifying thought suddenly arose in her mind: would she, the queen, become a puppet with the help of these two messengers from the gods?

In fact, she really didn't want the Pope and the Vatican to be above her.

Why would she, as a queen, lose face when she has no power but only blood and such an identity?

Zhu Lina was determined to strengthen her imperial power and raise her authority to the highest level. This was what she had always wanted to do after becoming empress.

Sadly, all of this is beginning to fade away.

At the same time, Lu Yun was also well entertained by the Pope. It must be said that the food in their Vatican was quite rich.

Viscount Charles was also very excited. He didn't expect to meet the legendary Viscount, and such a strange scene happened at the gate of Athens today.

"Oh, let me introduce you. This is Viscount Charles. He's my man."

"He was the first person I met after arriving in your Holy Empire. We have quite a connection. He followed me to Athens this time."

Felicius could naturally see clearly! Lu Yun's intention in saying this was very clear, it was just to get him to help Viscount Charles.

"Since he is a friend of the God's Messenger and a Viscount, I will definitely look at him with new eyes."

"Please rest assured, envoy. Your friend is a friend of our Holy See. He will definitely stay in Athens and be safe."

Lu Yun nodded, and thought of Bakhtin again, so he quickly talked about Bakhtin again. Naturally, the Pope would not say much!

"Now, Bakhwen has become the city lord! Don't worry, our Holy See will pay special attention to him and will definitely make his future more friendly and allow him to gain a foothold in Amman City."

"Being able to discover the messenger of the gods and report it to Bakhvin so quickly is indeed a great achievement. Our Church is clear about rewards and punishments and will not let him down."

The dishes have five flavors and the wine has three rounds.

Lu Yun also had a good meal and drink under the Pope's hospitality.

I have to say that this guy Felicius takes exceptionally good care of himself.

Even when eating, he kept complimenting me, and all kinds of flattery came out of his mouth.

He could also understand the Pope's compliment to him. He simply wanted the identity of a messenger from God to spread the word of their Holy See.

We need to make more people understand that what their Holy See says is right, and that their Holy See actually possesses the existence of gods.

The messenger from heaven is the best proof, after all, this is recorded in the scriptures.

To be honest, if people stop sleeping and expand a little more, they can successfully replace the queen! Even the Pope can directly become the king. This is a development trajectory.

As a person who traveled through time, Lu Yun knew very well that in history, the Pope becoming king was a trend in history.

Of course, the Holy See and the king can coexist, but in the end the king's power will be gradually eroded and replaced by the Pope. At that time, the king will become a real puppet.

But in fact, this also has an advantage. After the king becomes a puppet, the king's bloodline can be passed on.

There is no need for the king to take care of so many things. He is just a symbol of the sacred empire.

"Alas...it seems that the Holy Empire is not peaceful at all."

Along the way, Lu Yun also learned about various situations, especially when he learned that in their Holy Empire, the queen's power was already small enough, and the mayor of the city-state was the one with the greatest power.

Sometimes the queen has no control over the city-states, especially those powerful city-states, which are even like small countries!

"My husband, we are putting ourselves in too high a position now. The messengers of the gods receive so much attention and respect."

"If this identity is ever exposed or questioned by others, we will suffer a huge blow."

Lu Yun explained calmly, "Don't worry, our identities will never be exposed. Do you think it's possible?

We already fit the descriptions in their scriptures, and our abilities are enough for them to believe we are representatives of the gods."

"Don't you think the power struggle within the Holy Empire is extremely obvious? Do you really want to get caught up in this vortex?"

Lu Yun sighed. He really didn't know any of this at the moment.

"Okay, don't worry about it, just take it one step at a time."

"Don't forget our goal. Either we conquer the Holy Empire, or we use other means to make the Holy Empire bow down to us with infinite devotion."

“This is a reasonable thing to do!”

"Look at this Filixiu. He's extremely respectful to us now, but if a conflict arises, he'll definitely be the first to turn hostile. He just wants to use our innate status to make his followers trust him even more."

"Too……"

At night.

Filihu sat high on the Pope's seat, holding his scepter in his hand, and explained to the believers under him.

"In Athens and throughout our empire, begin vigorously promoting all matters related to the Messenger of the Gods!"

"I must further solidify my identity as the God's Messenger and make everyone believe in it."

"You have also seen that the two angels are truly powerful, not fake."

"Yes, sir!"

Filixiu smiled grimly. "As the influence of the Celestial Messengers continues to expand, the more people my Church will be able to control."

"No one will be able to compete with me then."

After being Pope for so long, Felicius was finally able to realize his dream, which was to completely let the Holy See replace the king of their Holy Empire.

From then on, he, the Pope, would not only be the Pope of their Holy See, but also the Pope King of the entire Holy Empire.

Wouldn’t it be nice for the Pope to be King!

"Hey, I don't know if these two messengers of the gods are easy to control and whether they will listen to me."
