Card Alchemist

Chapter 239 Millennium Capital

The emperor is an ancient city for thousands of years. The branches of the snowy mountains and rivers across the towering Thunder Mountains just pass through here and have been cultivated into a natural moat by successive emperors.

The tall wall was covered with green plants, and a fiery red flag fluttered in the wind on the flagpole. On the flag is a hexagonal shield, with a wand and a long sword across the back of the shield, and the surrounding is embroidered with golden lines.

Except for a few tall locust trees near the wall of the imperial capital, they are paved with whole stone slabs.

The city wall here is more majestic than the City of Thunder. Although it is covered by those vines, it still can't hide its magnificent posture.

The wall is covered with soldiers as severe as sculptures, and the horns and burghes are covered with the sight of the whole city wall. The luxurious ray tower can be seen almost every ten steps, and the soldiers of the empire use them to defend the majesty of the empire. Compared with the patrol soldiers in the City of Thunder, the soldiers with halberd guns at the gate are obviously more than sharp. Just standing there, they can make people feel a murderous atmosphere in the battlefield for a long time.

The soldiers wore neat military uniforms and looked at every pedestrian passing by the gate with vigilant eyes.

Tonys' carriage passed through the gate without hindrance, and the complex badges on the carriage made the soldiers understand who the real owner of the car was.

Star looked at these pedestrians interestingly through the window. The streets were full of merchants. They were in a hurry to make exquisite and luxurious carriages and rushed to the road.

"This place has been the imperial capital of mankind since thousands of years ago and has never changed. This is the largest gathering place of the empire, and more than 60% of the empire's trade is basically concentrated here. Tonis sensed Star's curious eyes and casually introduced them. There are as many as three million permanent residents here. Even in the face of war, the surrounding towns and civilians in the aristocratic fiefs can enter this huge city as a part of the resistance to foreign enemies. In addition, it has the same unattacked record as the City of Thunder!"

"But several falls start from the center of the imperial capital." Star said rudely. No matter how strong a fortress is outside, its heart is always fragile. Just like human beings, no matter how strong you are, there will always be a flaw in your heart.

But Star naturally didn't say this last sentence. With Tony's wit, he must have guessed that he had quietly broken the defense line in his heart.

"What is that?" Star pointed to the building in front of him and asked. A temple? I can't believe that the Holy See would allow other religions to spread here.

"The headquarters of the Holy See!" Tonis said coldly.

The gate of the temple is closed, and the granite steps of hundreds of classes extend upwards. Sitting in the carriage, Star can just look up at the tall and towering statue of the goddess at the entrance of the main entrance of the temple. The goddess is about 20 years old, wearing a white dress, and her beautiful feet are on the ground ripples like water. She held the porcelain bottle in her hands, and the shining milky white ** kept flowing out of the porcelain bottle. After splashing on the ground, it quickly disappeared.

Behind the goddess statue are two flower-like altars, burning with a blazing fire.

"These guys pretend to be ghosts!" Tonis snorted coldly, pulled the car and stood up, hissing and stopped.

Star poked his head out, and a group of Holy See knights in rilonged armor had stopped the carriage. The leader was shrouded in a white cloak, and the milky white scepter, which was as tall as a person, was held in his hand. The power of light is endless... Compared with Dios sitting on the throne, he is like a halo. It was unpredictable in the distance, as if the darkness hidden in the corner was driven away by him.

"Dear Pope, I didn't expect you to greet me in person!" Star in the carriage said casually that although his voice was not loud, it just covered the area before the temple. Suddenly, it seemed that time had stopped, and all the pedestrians stopped their hurried footsteps and turned their eyes to the main entrance of the temple.

The leader slowly took off his cloak, although his face had already recovered. However, there is only a hollow eye in the position of the right eye, and there is still a glass-shaped eye crystal left in it. At first glance, it looks like a normal eye, but a closer look can't help but make people feel creepy. And his right eye still has a strange light from time to time, as if it can be fascinating all the time.

"My dear cardinal Lanxia, you are really joking. You are the only cardinal in the Holy See. As the Pope, I should come to pick you up in person. Feiglang said loudly, although the words were full of joy, but the words were mysterious. The Holy See knights behind Feigrand quickly dispersed and quickly surrounded the carriage like a star. After seeing this scene, the pedestrians in front of the temple avoided it far away.

"You are really not dead. Even the holy land sent by your majesty can't do anything about you. This is Mr. Tonis!" Feigrand nodded slightly to Tonis in front of the carriage, showing enough respect for a holy place. Mr. Tonis, can you let the Cardinal stay? He is from our Holy See!"

"That won't work!" Tonis let go of the reins, and the spear that had never left him was tightly held in his hand. Your Holiness doesn't want to rob people on the street, will he?"

"Why not?" Feiglang's broken eyeballs trickle in his eyes and then said. Those Holy See knights, who had already surrounded the carriage, immediately took another step forward. Sir, Staran is a noble clergyman of the Holy See. I don't think believers will allow some people of unknown origin to take him away like this!"

Star lay on the car window and couldn't take his eyes off the scene. Feilang's meaning is obvious. As long as he doesn't come to the imperial capital, even if he dies in front of the gate of the imperial capital, it will not have any impact on him. It's just that everything is different now!

"His Majesty the Pope, Star is a guest of His Majesty Roland. I think you should ask what His Majesty Roland means first!" Tonis snorted coldly and said rudely.

Star raised the corners of his mouth proudly. He didn't expect Tonis to lift Roland out. A long time ago, Starr had been thinking about how to provoke the contradiction between theocracy and the imperial power. The greater the conflict between the two, the more beneficial it will be for him. I didn't expect that Tonis had inadvertently intensified this contradiction again... If Feigrand chose to give in, it meant that the theocracy bowed his head to the imperial power.

"Presumptuous, His Holiness is a land walker appointed by the goddess. Isn't he as good as the king of the world? In front of His Holiness the Pope, all rights must be put aside. A knight beside Fergran shouted loudly.

"Humph!" Tonis frowned suddenly, and his murderous spirit and fighting spirit quickly attacked him.

The knight's strength is extraordinary, and he has no intention of dodging in the face of Tony's sudden failure. Tony's fighting spirit entered his side, and suddenly it was like a stone sinking into the sea. There was not even a little ripple.

It was not until then that Tonis noticed that the Holy See knights surrounding the carriage were all extraordinary... He actually made such a big battle in private for a Star!

"Your Excellency Tones is right... But His Majesty Roland, as the ruler of the whole empire, received an unnamed cleric, which really made the Holy See feel glorious. But you don't think the identity gap between the two is too big, which humiliates the glory of His Majesty Roland. It's not too late to ask His Majesty Roland to wait for seven days, and then let His Majesty Roland meet him after he is baptized.

Feigran's old, hot and smooth personality takes retreat as progress, and he plays this chess skillfully. He clearly lifted out Star's current low identity. If Tonis still wanted to forcibly take him away, it would indirectly devalue the status of the imperial power. If it's Roland who is here today, maybe he still has a way to deal with this old fox, but Tonis... He can only be anxious.

Even if it is really strong, I'm afraid it's impossible. Those Holy See knights around the carriage are not vegetarian... They can't see through each other with the strength of the strong in their holy land.

"But His Majesty Roland said..." Tonis still wanted to struggle again.

"Can't you understand His Holiness's words?"

The knights of the Holy See drank loudly again, and for a moment, the pedestrians looked sideways. No matter whether Tonis can successfully take Star away today, he has lost the face of the royal family. After all, the status between the two is obvious here, and in full view of the public, Tonis can't do it at all. The time, the right place, the people and he didn't even occupy a single point, and even with Tony's wit, he suddenly hesitated.

"Why don't you go back first? I think His Majesty Roland is wise enough to illuminate the whole Hastan continent. He will understand you. When His Holiness finishes baptizing for me, I will personally go to the palace to see His Majesty Roland. Star slowly got out of the carriage. The contradiction between the two sides has been intensified to a certain extent, and this kind of thing is urgent... Star can only be mixed as a modifier.

"Good!" Tonis wanted to stop talking. He looked at Star's confident face and nodded fiercely. In seven days, I will be in front of the palace, waiting for the cardinal to come. At that time, I still hope that His Holiness will let people go..."

Tonis raised his voice, which not only did he seem to be a little unreasonable, but indirectly threatened Fergrand. Seven days later, I must meet Star's people!

"Then please come back." Fergran nodded slightly, and then he looked at Star. My dear Staran, you haven't been to the Temple of the Goddess yet, have you? I will be your guide today.
