Except for the bishops of the priesthood and the close attendants around him, there are very few people who know the true face of the pope.
After becoming the Pope, his rejuvenation changed not only his age, but also some of his appearance features. At least in memory, the Pope did not have long white hair before.
Today, his whole body exudes a bright aura, and even his long hair is filled with a faint golden light. When he holds it in his hand, it looks bright white when viewed up close, but when viewed from a distance, it seems to be pale gold, sacred and bright.
As a priest who serves the Pope closely, in a certain sense, he is actually a slave of the church.
There is slavery in this world.
Even in Guangming City, the capital of the Holy See, in addition to free people, there are also slaves.
The priests who are responsible for serving the pope have grown up within the Holy See of Light for generations and are specially trained by people from the priesthood to ensure the absolute loyalty of the priests.
He has been following the Pope in and out of the Palace of Light all year round, and this priest has more or less aura of light attached to him.
Therefore, if he is disguised as the Pope, even the bishops outside should not be able to tell, right?
After Xu Shuo looked around, he noticed the fearful and tense jaw of the teaching attendant, and smiled slightly: "I have to ask you to do me a favor at noon."
The priest hurriedly knelt down and saluted, with an expression of respect and admiration: "I am willing to die for you!"
at this time.
He may not know the seriousness of the matter yet.
…
The Archbishop was unwilling to let the Pope leave the City of Light.
Then they would be even less willing to let him act alone.
When Xu Shuo was thinking about how to dress up, he looked at his long hair that was in the way, took out the scissors, and after hesitating, he tentatively cut off a strand of hair at the end.
Then, he watched helplessly as the strand of hair turned dark gray and withered.
It is like a dehydrated and scorched grass stem, without any luster or toughness, and can be easily crushed like a hag wood with a gentle pinch.
Xu Shuo: "..."
What kind of Rapunzel is this?
The Pope's real age is now several dozen years old. This body is activated by the power of light, which means that as long as any part of the body is separated from his body, it will instantly lose its vitality.
After being crowned the Pope of Light, he probably never cut his hair.
Why do you love to cut your fingernails?
Don’t cut it if you can!
Xu Shuo complained in his heart, but the hair that had been blessed with light also had magical power in a certain way, so it would be a pity to cut it all off.
So, he had to use Xiaofetion to ask Hongrao for several hair braiding tutorials, and then piled all his hair up, eventually shortening it to waist-length hair.
Hongrao: [Hahahahahahahahaha]
After the teacher-student bond reached level two, there was no limit on the number of times he could fly, so she didn't forget to have fun after giving the tutorial.
Xu Shuo didn't know how players dealt with the Pope in the past. Anyway, he thought it was good for him like this, so he took off his priestly robe and changed into a simple knight costume.
After doing this, he threw the sun crown in his hand and called in the priest who was waiting outside.
…
…
At noon.
The Holy See Army, which has been prepared for a long time, is ready to set off.
Xu Shuo wore a jade-crowned hat, with the hanging crepe covering his waist and covering his long silver-white hair.
After leaving the Palace of Light, he skillfully bypassed the palaces and pavilions of the Holy See and avoided the patrolling Holy See troops. However, when he approached the secret passage, he saw a young girl standing in front of the temple door.
This is...the location of the Inquisition.
The girl stood quietly beside the relief stone pillar in front of the door. She was wearing a light gray clerical robe, with long gray hair like a waterfall, and a graceful appearance.
She also wears a sun crown on her head, but it is much smaller than the pope's crown, and there are only eight rays of light spread out by the aperture, which glows with a faint golden color under the midday sun.
The girl was tall and tall. She raised her head slightly and stared directly at the sun in the sky without hesitation.
The sunlight fell on her face, making it dazzling like a blooming crystal.
Suddenly, she lowered her eyes and looked in Xu Shuo's direction.
From a distance, the girl put her two fingers between her eyebrows and saluted him with a calm and respectful smile.
——This has been recognized.
Xu Shuo had no intention of going over to say hello to the Holy Lady of Light. He just glanced at the girl and then disappeared into the arcade next to her.
As for snitching?
To be honest, the priest couldn't hide it from the priests at all, but the priests would definitely not publicize it after discovering that he had escaped. They would only send people to secretly search for him.
As for worrying about the saint being an enemy?
Then I must ask why Your Majesty rebelled?
Behind the choir of Saint of Light is the Heretic Tribunal. She is in charge of the order and justice within the Holy See. She is also responsible for processions, preaching and sacrificial prayers. She is the Holy See on the surface of the Holy See.
The Pope's office is outside the church, while the saint's office is inside the church.
The saint may not be able to decide whether to go to war with the royal power, nor can she mobilize the Holy See army, but she can judge the king as a heretic and put him on trial based on his faith.
Commonly known as assassination.
Naturally, this operation will not be hidden from the Saint of Light.
Xu Shuo also knew about the actions of the Heretic Tribunal that their secret sentinels had always been present in the royal capital. If the war really started by then, the Saint Varo royal family would be attacked and killed in an instant.
However, the Pope has little contact with the saints of this generation, and Xu Shuo does not quite understand the temperament of this saint.
But when he just walked out of the arcade, he heard a faint voice in his ears.
"Don't forget your identity."
The voice was cold, ethereal, and a little helpless.
Obviously, he ignored the saint's resolute turn and left, which also surprised the saint who had been waiting there for a long time.
Saint: You see me, but want to say a word?
When a normal person sees someone discovering himself in disguise, shouldn't he come over to say hello or give a reaction? Why did he take one look and leave?
Oh, because he doesn’t seem to be a normal person?
Seeing that people were about to leave the Holy See, the saint had no choice but to speak out.
Xu Shuo paused and replied: "I have my own arrangements, so there is no need to worry. Just take care of the Holy See of Light, and pay attention to some suspicious people in the Holy See in recent times."

The Pope of Light has slipped away, and the remaining Saint of Light cannot leave the Holy See no matter what.
The saint originally wanted to say something, but the next moment she sensed that the Pope had left.
At that moment, he looked helpless and could only shake his head.
I have long heard that the popes of this generation are extraordinary and behave erratically.
She found it interesting before when she learned that the Pope was obsessed with finding the dragon. Yesterday, she suddenly heard that the Pope was planning to seize the royal power, so she personally conquered the royal capital that day.
And today...the Pope slipped away alone without telling the entire Holy See.
Saint: What a personality.
…
After Xu Shuo replied to the saint, he opened the secret passage switch and slipped in.
In front of you is a very long corridor, narrow on both sides, twists and turns, and the entire journey is pitch black.
The Holy See building occupies an extremely vast area, with the city wall alone being ten feet wide, and there are many secret passages inside, most of which are built in the walls and connected to the ground.
There is no light inside the dark passage, and it takes a long time to walk in a winding way until there is an exit.
Xu Shuo deliberately walked a little further, and then touched the relief carved on the corridor wall, which was a pattern of rotating sun symbols.
There was a gentle "click" sound.
There was a faint crack of light in front of him, and Xu Shuo walked forward and opened the door. After coming out, he manually closed the secret passage. The door crack fit the wall tiles perfectly.
This is a narrow alley.
As soon as he came out, he suddenly looked up at a window not far away and saw a shadow flashing past the window.
Although the person quickly hid, he knew that the person must still be paying attention to this place.
Xu Shuo did not make things difficult for the other party. He raised his palm, and a bright sun crown symbol floated on his palm. After letting the Holy See troops guarding the exit of the secret passage see his identity, he turned and left.
The ability to manifest the Sun Crown can only be achieved by bishops of the Holy See.
Only priests above the bishop level know the distribution of secret passages in the Guangming City Church.
Xu Shuo walked out of the alley and took a look at the scene in Guangming City at this moment.
When the pope travels, he shines with splendor and power like the sea.
