Tenjin Square.
The most lively square in the entire city of Athens is also located in the center of their castle.
Today, in the Piazza dei Celestini, there is a big event to be announced. That is, the new Pope of the Holy See will be the focus of the world in this Piazza dei Celestini.
And this news was actually spread by Her Majesty the Queen. Logically, shouldn't the Vatican choose the Pope? Why did Her Majesty bring this up? Many people were very confused.
However, since a new Pope is to be selected, they must want to join in the fun and take a look at the specific situation.
On this day, the Queen led many cardinals of the Holy See, some of her officials, and these nobles to the Piazza dei Celestini.
Standing under this huge statue of the god, Lu Yun and Zhao Yueyao also slowly walked out.
Lu Yun held in his hand his Qin Emperor Sword, which was also known as the Heavenly Holy Sword in their Holy Empire.
He drew his sword and said coldly, "The king's power is granted by God!"
"Her Majesty, as the King of the Holy Empire, and as the King of all of you, her power comes from the power delegated by the gods, from the rights granted to her by the gods!"
"The King of the Holy Empire represents the Gods. The Pope is merely a guide in the human world, helping the gods spread their deeds!"
"The gods have said that Her Majesty the Queen is the most worthy representative of the gods in the entire Holy Empire!"
"The Pope cannot decide the position of the Queen! On the contrary, all Popes of the Holy See should be chosen by the Queen. More precisely, the Queen should choose on behalf of the gods."
"But how does the Queen know the God's choice? Who will the God choose to be the Pope?"
“It’s very simple!”
Lu Yun directly asked someone to take out a small stick similar to that used for drawing lots.
When they first saw this thing, many people were very confused. In fact, they were also extremely shocked when they heard the words of the messenger of the gods. They never expected...
From now on, the Pope will be selected by the Queen herself. This is indeed shocking enough, because he is the Pope!
After their Holy Empire came into possession of the Holy See, the first Pope was elected from within their Holy See. Since then, every Pope has been chosen from within their Holy See.
Since when did the Pope become determined by the King?
But these were the words spoken by the messenger of God, and they had to acknowledge them. Whoever dared to question the messenger of God was questioning God. If anyone questioned God, then the entire Holy See would cease to exist.
If the Holy See dares to question even the gods, then what is the need for them to exist?
So when the messenger of the gods said these words, no one dared to question them and could only obey them obediently.
Now in the entire Holy Empire, I am afraid that only God is the real authority. If God thinks that you, the Pope, are capable, then you are really capable.
If people think that you are not capable as a king, then you will be questioned by everyone.
But all along, the gods have been a spiritual belief in their hearts, and they never thought that one day the gods would send messengers to the world, and then the power of the gods would be infinitely magnified.
Of course, Lu Yun was just taking advantage of the special situation of their Holy Empire to make some adjustments.
I have to say that I am indeed lucky enough to be recognized as a messenger from God by them.
"Because you should be able to see that I have a small wooden barrel in my hand, and in this barrel are many bamboo sticks, on which are written various names."
"All of them are cardinals in the Vatican, so if you want to gain the approval of the gods, you must draw one of these lots."
"No, to be precise, I drew a stick!"
"Every time a name appears, it's recorded. You'll draw ten times in total. Whoever's name appears the most will be recognized by the gods."
Lu Yun just wanted to leave the position of Pope to the Queen, so that he could completely prevent the Pope from becoming more powerful again and make more people choose to believe in the Queen instead of the Pope.
Doing so would also allow the Queen's power to be magnified once again and placed at a very high position, completely restraining the Pope.
If the Pope's power is further expanded, many people will think that the Pope was personally selected by the Queen, so you still think you are right?
Queen Juliana looked at the small wooden barrel for drawing lots and couldn't help but sigh in her heart that Lu Yun was more powerful.
The method he came up with was truly brilliant. It could curb the Pope's power and put the Pope's power in his own hands.
From now on, any pope must be approved by the queen, and no one dares to say anything wrong.
Juliana stepped forward, took the small piece of wood in her hand and shook out a stick with the name of a cardinal written on it. After shaking it ten times, the name of one of the cardinals appeared four times, which proved that he was the Pope recognized by the gods.
The name of the new Pope is Upton. He is in his forties and is a very mediocre person among the cardinals.
I never thought that one day I would be so lucky to become the Pope!
This was something that was unthinkable in the past. Not everyone can become a cardinal if they want to!
He was so lucky that he felt as if he was going to heaven at this moment.
At this time, many people in the Vatican were looking at Upton with envy. This was simply a gift from fate. It seemed that he was really the Pope chosen by God.
"Upton, very good. As a cardinal, you are the candidate many people are looking forward to becoming Pope."
"The fact that your name has been mentioned four times proves that the gods highly recognize you. I hope you can continue to work hard in the future."
"From now on, you are the Pope of the Holy See. I hope you can make the Holy See even more powerful. I hope the Holy See can spread the deeds of the gods and let them spread throughout the entire Western Continent."
Upton walked forward tremblingly and took over the Pope's scepter and the crown that symbolized the Pope's identity!
It has to be said that he has been a cardinal for such a long time and has never fantasized about these things. Looking at himself holding the Pope's scepter, he only feels extremely lucky at this moment.
"Your Majesty, since the gods have chosen me, the cardinal, to be the Pope, I will definitely make our Holy See even more powerful in the future."
"I will also do my utmost to assist Her Majesty the Queen. Her Majesty the Queen is the true guide of the gods in the world."
"We in the Holy See wish to honor Her Majesty the Queen for generations to come!"
