A sword

Chapter 431 Disillusionment

Seeing the Pope in this state, Pilate was not afraid, but smiled and said slightly saistically, "In today's continent, except for the sword saint Roland, I'm afraid only His Majesty the Pope can have such momentum. Ha ha, it's just a pity that if you don't enter the divine realm, your life expectancy can't be separated from the category of human beings. Your body full of light and divine power has passed for more than 200 years, and I'm afraid you have reached the limit, right? How much time do you still have to live without external force? Ten years or 20 years?"

His Majesty was silent, because what the people in front of him said was indeed correct. People live for a lifetime, but only a hundred years. On this continent, human beings can dominate by not the length of life, but on the ability to reproduce and learn far beyond any race.

The current Pope, Saint Paul VI, has lived for nearly two centuries with his pure light power, and his physical function has slowly declined to the level of ordinary old people. Pilate is right. Within 20 years, even if he uses the bright divine power with strong healing and recovery ability to nourish his body and mind, he will eventually die.

So what? The Pope sighed lightly and said, "If I can keep the peace of the mainland, I will not cherish my life. Although I am old, I will fight for my life!"

Over the years, His Majesty the Pope has been deeply simple. Except for cultivating the young generation of the temple, he has almost nothing to do with the world, precisely because he knows that the deadline is approaching. If you don't move, you still have 20 years to live, and if you do your best to use the divine power of light, your life will be in danger.

"Hahaha! OK, good one for the world for peace! Unfortunately, even if you don't risk your life, I'm afraid you can't change anything, Your Majesty!" Pilate just laughed loudly, and his tears were about to flow out. He is also an old man. Although he is much younger than His Majesty the Pope, he is finally old, so such a crazy laugh looks strange.

The abnormal behavior is naturally because he has to do something. Pilate chuckled, so he took out a green pill from his pocket, slowly put it into his mouth, swallowed it, and then said, "Your Majesty, have you ever heard of the fruit of disillusionment?"

Seeing the old Pope frowned slightly, Pilate said in a trembling voice: "Legend, there is a plant around the wall of sighs, which is called to see the tree of life and death, which blooms in 30 years and bears fruit in 60 years... The fruit on this tree is called the fruit of disillusionment! This fruit is crystal clear. Thirty years, from virtual to real, and then it has been 60 years. After these nine times, it has to mature. It is extremely difficult to obtain this fruit. Even if you are knowledgeable, it is normal that you have not heard of it. This is only children of elves who are just about ten years old and must be born with strong natural affinity at the junction of the East and West continents, and the endless sea space cracks can be sensed to be picked.

"Well, that's right, this fruit does have incredible time power. If the underage elf teenager eats it, they can immediately cross the weakest and dangerous childhood and directly become adults, and their power is better than ordinary adult elves. However, even in the heyday of the elf clan, this thing rarely flows out. Now the elves The clan moved north, and this fruit also became a legend. But what does all this have to do with you? Pope's interface.

"It seems that I still underestimated His Majesty's knowledge. It turns out that you know it very well. Naturally, this matter has a lot to do with me. The green medicine I took just now is made from the fruit of disillusionment. It's just the improvement of Christopher, the pharmacist of our dark council. After saying that, Pilate slowly sat down with his legs crossed, looked up at the Pope calmly, and continued, "He called this medicine the poison of time. Those who are in the middle will die. The ancient scriptures are hopeless."

"There is a big fear between life and death, and I still can't be detached. As long as half an hour, I will be poisoned by time. At this moment, I can't help trembling with fear. However, you, who share your life with me, will also die with me. Hahaha, in this way, I won't lose! Pope, do you think that there will be such a day when you will die with this aggrieved death method? Pilate suddenly laughed crazily.

In the eyes of the old Pope, Pilate's crane-haired childish face actually aged at a speed visible to the naked eye, his hair was dyed white, and the wrinkles began to crisscross on his face...

He raised his waist with difficulty, looked at the pope who had also sat down, and said sarcastically, "Have you ever thought that the God of Light, who has prayed all his life, would take you away with his magic?" Wake up, God is long gone, and the light will eventually be destroyed. Hahahahaha!"

His Majesty ignored Pilate. His face was getting older faster, but the supreme did not have any fear.

"God forgives your arrogance and mercy on your ignorance. In this world, as long as there is one person who believes in light, the glory of the god will not die out. As long as there is a person who yearns for light, the god of destruction will not be able to do anything.

Suddenly, the Pope's body was shining, and the divine power of light was stimulated to the extreme. He sang loudly, and in the sky, there was a heavenly scene, surrounded by naive little angels, dignified and holy goddesses, and all kinds of powerful gods...

The Pope's old but magnificent voice sounded at this time: "The God of Light is above! Give us eternal rest and shine on them with eternal glory. Please listen to my prayers! All creatures will return to you..."

Requiem, at this moment, the Pope sang the Requiem for himself, and the angels around him seemed to feel that the old man was about to ascend to heaven, and his voice became louder and louder. Pilate listened to this song and couldn't help looking at the Pope. Under the old man's direct gaze, he seemed to suffer great pain. He fell to the ground and twisted his body in pain.

Gradually, the song weakened, and the strange scene in the sky gradually dispersed. The Pope's eyes closed peacefully, and between the two, the golden thread representing the connection of life was also broken.

......

......

At noon, a team from the west came to the imperial capital. Everyone in the team looked haggard, even ragged and unkempt. However, the guards guarding the city gate still dare not stop them, because of the smell of the superiors emitted from these people.

The order of the Sky City has always been very good, and the city guards are also conscientious, but long-term comfort will always make some people corrupt. Just like the big-bellied city guard, he is responsible for the east gate of one of the four gates of the Sky City. This guy comes to power by virtue of the relationship in the family. He is usually lazy and has no eyesight as an ordinary soldier. At this moment, watching such a group of clay figurines walk into the city, he was stunned first, then grinned, and finally had some fun in his boring life.

His nostrils rushed to the sky, and ordinary people around him who knew him took a detour and didn't want to be implicated.

Walking in front of the team is a teenager. He can't release his power, so if he is an ordinary person, he will not think how unusual he is. Unfortunately, this big belly city guard is one of the ordinary people. If he knows that it is this teenager who killed a demon last night, then I don't know if he is willing to take another step.

Lance is in a bad mood at this moment, so even if he treats such an ordinary person, he will retain any affection. I just took a simple look at the city guard who swaggered. The big-bellied guy's face suddenly changed wildly, as if he had seen the most terrible thing in the world. He was so scared that he was incontinent and collapsed on the ground.

The ordinary people around found this scene in front of them, and then were shocked by the horror of the dirty teenager just now. However, when they went to see it again, the group had disappeared on the street.
