Joan of Arc and the Crusade
Everyone present witnessed the High Priest transform from a withered old man into a young Seraph. The priests, nuns, priests, and crusaders all stared at the High Priest in the Angelic Resurrection Pool with wide eyes.
"Praise my Lord, and may all men hallowed thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”All the believers prostrated themselves on the ground and sang praises to Nongyue. Waves of dense power of faith continuously entered Nongyue's body.
"Bang!" The High Priest, who had transformed into a Blazing Angel in the Angelic Resurrection Pool, flew out of the pool. He respectfully embraced Nongyue, who was floating in the air, the fanaticism in his eyes could not be concealed. His Lord had saved him, his Lord had reincarnated him into a Seraph. What could make him more excited than the High Priest?
However, while some people were happy, there were also some who were worried. For example, the representatives of the various forces on the city wall were worried to death. Tell me, wouldn't it be better if the High Priest died? Why did you have to revive him? Aren't you forcing us into a dead end? Moreover, with this miracle of yours, who would dare to doubt your identity? If anyone dared to say anything bad, they would probably be captured and burned at the stake. Therefore, all the representatives were worried to death.
The High Priest carried Nongyue in his arms and landed on the ground. He raised Nongyue up high and said,"Glory to my Lord."
"Glory to my Lord." All the believers looked at the high and mighty lunatic and shouted after the high priest.
"Whoosh." Just as everyone was shouting, a cold arrow shot out from the kneeling crowd towards Nongyue, who had just been lifted up by the High Priest.
However, just as the arrow was about to hit Nongyue, a light flashed and the arrow was turned into ashes in the air.
"Catch that blasphemer." The High Priest's exasperated voice rang out, and it was only then that everyone snapped out of their daze.
The believers who came back to their senses immediately looked in the direction of the arrow in anger. They saw the red-robed archbishop who had led the expedition to the Holy Land of Jerusha.
The Arch-Cardinal was about to commit suicide when he saw that the assassination had failed. However, before he could pick up his sword, he was stopped by the Crusader beside him and escorted to the High Priest.
"Why did you assassinate our common Lord? Why did you abandon the glory of our Lord?”The High Priest walked out of his rage and looked at the Arch-Cardinal who was being escorted to him calmly.
"This is just a false god that you found early on. Only His Holiness the Pope is the representative of the Lord, and His Holiness the Pope is our faith.”The Arch-Cardinal stared at the High Priest and Nongyue in his arms in a deranged manner.
"Take him down and prepare the stake. I want to send this blasphemer to the stake. Only my Lord is the true faith.”The High Priest calmly ordered.
"Yes, High Priest. We will immediately send this blasphemer to the stake.”The group of zealots immediately went to prepare the stake.
Not long after, a stake was prepared. The believers escorted the red-robed archbishop who dared to blaspheme to the stake.
"Do you have anything to say before you die?”The High Priest looked at the Arch-Cardinal who was tied to the stake and said indifferently.
"Only His Holiness the Pope is a true god. You are just fake gods. One day, you will be sent to the stake like me.”The Arch-Cardinal shouted frantically.
"Light the fire and burn this blasphemer to death. Those who blaspheme my Lord will be punished.”The High Priest's words were very calm, but no one dared to doubt it because everyone could hear the fanaticism, determination, and unquestionable tone in the High Priest's words.
" Boom…" The moment the stake was lit up, flames rose and enveloped the Arch-Cardinal.
Listening to the Arch-Cardinal's wail in the flames, the representatives of the various factions all turned pale. They knew that the cleansing of the Cross Cult was about to begin, and they did not know how many factions would be involved. However, they knew that it would definitely be a bloody storm.
The flames quickly died out, and the Arch-Cardinal was burned to ashes. However, just as everyone thought that it was over, a magic array appeared on the ground. The magic array was emitting a white light, and everyone was dazzled by the white light. They couldn't help but close their eyes.
When the light dissipated, everyone opened their eyes and saw a girl with golden hair tied into a big braid holding an iris flower flag. The girl was closing her eyes.
"Jeanne Darke obeys my lord's summons. My sword shall fight for my lord.”The young girl opened her blue eyes, and her voice was clear and melodious. She knelt down on one knee and swore an oath to Nongyue, who was in the High Priest's arms.
"Joan of Arc!" Countless exclamations sounded.
"Please hand my master over to me." Joan of Arc ignored the exclamations of those people and stood up. She stretched out her hands towards Nongyue, who was in the arms of the High Priest, wanting to carry Adam over.
The High Priest looked at Joan of Arc, who had a strong aura of faith on her, and handed Nongyue over to Joan of Arc without worry. After Joan finished with Nongyue, the High Priest flapped his wings and rose into the air.
" My Lord will be taken care of by Joan of Arc. Now is the time to turn this world into my Lord's paradise on earth. Warriors, pick up your swords and fight for the glory of my Lord. The first person we will judge is the Church that blasphemed my Lord. Praise the Lord, and hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”The high priest shouted in the air.
"Fight for my Lord's Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. Praise my Lord, and may everyone honor your name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”The Crusaders on the ground raised their swords and cheered.
Joan of Arc hugged Nongyue and silently looked at the fanatical believers, the corners of her mouth curling up.
On the other side of the Holy See.
"What did you say? Did they fail? Did all the Crusaders betray them?”The Pope looked at the person who reported the news to him and shouted in disbelief.
"No, Your Holiness the Pope, it's not a betrayal, but a return to the embrace of my Lord. Moreover, my Lord's expeditionary army is about to come and crusade against you.”The people below looked at the Pope's changed expression, their faces filled with indescribable joy.
"Who are you?" When the Pope heard this person's tone, he immediately realized that this person was definitely not on his side.
"Me? I'm just a servant of my master. I came here to tell you that you, a blasphemer, will soon be sent to the stake.”The man disappeared after he finished speaking, leaving behind a loud roar in the empty Pontiff's Hall.
