Chapter 447 Dilemma

Over the Arctic, Devaloca.

After Yuan Qingzhou fell into the mirror world, Qingluan rushed back to the heavens in just one day and rushed directly to the black tower on the top floor of Devalokka.

Qingluan looked up at the towering black tower. Thick clouds surrounded the black tower and could not see clearly where the top of the tower was.

Although the Pope's teacher never told her, she always knew that this black tower is a wormhole leading to the mirror world and has existed since ancient times.

The reason why the floating fortress in the heavens is here is that the previous popes are not allowed to leave the Black Tower is to protect this wormhole and maintain the stability of the two worlds.

At the same time, by observing the development of the mirrored world, it is possible to prevent the possible world-destruction disasters in the main world.

Qingluan walked around the black tower and found that there was no entrance at all. The entire black tower was integrated and didn't know what to cast. Even the bricks and stone gaps did not exist. She pressed her hands on the wall of the black tower, but her ability actually did not play any role in the black tower.

"Qingluan."

Hearing the pope's voice, Qingluan shook all over, then clenched her fists and turned around, lowering her head like a child who made a mistake, and did not dare to look directly into the pope's eyes.

"teacher……"

"Why don't you tell me when you come back?"

The Pope was dressed in a grand dress, wearing a white gold-edged robe and a crown, and his whole body exuded a holy soft light.

The pope came over and rubbed Qingluan's head like a kind elder, "You seem to have grown a little taller."

"Teacher, I want to go to the other world." Qingluan said with courage.

The Pope did not answer her, turned around and looked at Heita, and then said, "Come with me first. Today is the day when the two children you brought back were baptized. If they knew you were back, they would be very happy."

If you can't enter the Black Tower, Qingluan knew it would be useless to be anxious and had to convince the Pope's teacher, so she followed her to the auditorium in the center of Devaloca.

Outside the central auditorium, all the residents who had free time today came, standing in an orderly manner across the streets, singing the hymns belonging to the heavens in unison, and watching the latest batch of 100 children who passed the primary election wear the same white gold-edged dresses and step into the auditorium.

In the auditorium, the Pope stood under the deepest mural. The current knight commander of the Thirteen Temples pressed his hands on the holy swords of their respective temples, wore the most solemn knight's gown, and formed a circle around the high platform in the center of the auditorium.

There is only a golden holy grail on the small platform among them. The sun, moon and stars are carved on three sides of the holy grail, which are all patterns representing the sky.

Tick!

The sound of water drops, and the children who came in looked up and saw a huge Western sword hanging above the Holy Grail. There was no complicated pattern on it, only a bright red gem inlaid at the hilt of the sword, emitting dazzling light.

The children have been popularized by science and know that it is [Sword of Damocles], which represents the crisis that is always coming, and it also warns the people of the heaven that the greater the power they have, the greater the responsibility they have.

The sword hangs here day and night. Every year, the dew condensed on the sword will fill the Holy Grail below. After receiving the blessing of the Pope and the Thirteen Knights Templars, the water in the Holy Grail has been used by the heaven to stimulate the potential of warriors for thousands of years.

Mi Tao and his younger brother Mi Cheng stood at the front of the group of children, both excited and nervous. Her younger brother had already replaced the best prosthetic limb with the help of Qingluan and ran faster than normal people.

Mi Tao is very grateful to Qingluan, and today she also hopes that Qingluan can watch her and her younger brother be baptized. After all, Qingluan gave her and her younger brother a second life. She and her younger brother completed a year of basic training in just half a year, and it was also to live up to Qingluan.

Mi Tao stretched her neck and glanced at the various temple warriors watching the ceremony in the auditorium. Suddenly, she saw the Qingluan behind the Pope. Her eyes lit up and stood up immediately. Her expression of joy could not be hidden.

But Qingluan was worried and did not notice Mi Tao and Mi Cheng who were looking at her.

The Pope stood on the steps and preached to the group of children the duty of protecting humanity in heaven. Everyone looked solemn. Even though he had already engraved every word the Pope said in his heart, he still listened carefully.

Qingluan also listened carefully, but her eyes fell on the murals everywhere in the auditorium.

The dome of the entire auditorium, the colorful windows and the ground form a narrative painting of "ancient gods destroy demons and save the world, humans are ordered to build the heavens and protect all peoples."

On the dome, the sun, moon and stars appear in the sky at the same time, symbolizing the god of the sky.

On the surrounding walls, all the people knelt down on the devastated land and prayed piously on the devastated land.

On the floor is a vain darkness, symbolizing the demon.

Behind the pope, in the mural, the darkness on the ground condensed into a big hand and grabbed an innocent girl, who knelt on the ground and begged with his back to the dark palm that was about to cover her.

Just next to the big hand, a man was covered with the holy light descending from the sky, holding up the holy sword and slashing towards the big hand fiercely.

The man and woman who hold the holy sword are uncontestable, and are the first pope who founded the heavenly realm.

After all the popes become popes, they will erase their original names and are only called Popes.

Because once you accept this position, you must forget everything about yourself, protect the black tower, and protect the people.

Qingluan saw that there were many white silk hidden in the light brown hair under the Pope's crown, and suddenly felt ache in her heart. No one knew the teacher's original name, and no one knew that she had also entered the age of aging.

As the heir chosen by the teacher, Qingluan clenched her fists and was irresistible to fall into conflict.

If she wanted to save her sister, she would have to disobey the teacher's orders, but if she didn't save her, she would have disobeyed her heart.

At the end of the ceremony, the Thirteen Knights Templars drew out their holy sword and put it on the platform. The Pope took off his crown and walked up to the platform step by step.

The crown symbolizing the responsibilities of the heavens was pinned on the Holy Grail, tightly cleaved, as if it was originally one.

The pope disguised his hair, turned to face the group of children, and lit three times on his chest.

"Let the God of the Sky bless you."

As soon as the words came to an end, a golden light radiated from the crown, and the light melted into the Holy Grail like thin filaments. The originally colorless water slowly turned into a golden color.

At the end of the ceremony, the holy water was divided into one hundred portions and distributed to each child. Then, at the Pope's instructions, the children took the holy water.

Tonight, the holy water will take effect, activate the strongest power in their bodies and make them real warriors in the heavens.

After the ceremony, the Pope walked up to Qingluan, looking tired.

"You must be tired from traveling a long distance. Have a good rest and think about it clearly. Come and tell me your decision tomorrow. Don't worry, as long as you make a decision, I will not stop you again this time."

Qingluan looked up in surprise, then felt even more guilty. She nodded in depression and could not say anything.

Qingluan returned to her empty residence, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings.

She understood what the Pope teacher meant. She had to make a choice whether to give up the heaven to save her sister or to give up her sister to stay for her position to take over the teacher.

Now she understood why the Pope Teacher always knew that the sister in the main world was still alive, but lied to her that her sister no longer existed.

Later, he was willing to tell her the truth, perhaps it was a test for her.

It tests whether she can become a qualified heir who forgets everything about herself and is dedicated to the public.

Knock knock knock knock knock.

The knock on the door interrupted Qingluan's entanglement. She took a breath and her face gradually faded away, and walked over to open the door.

Outside the door, Chen Xiang, who hadn't seen for a long time, looked around sneakily, and then squeezed in without waiting for Qingluan to say anything and closed the door.

"You are back. Last time you asked me to help you check the relevant information about the Valen Laboratory. I used all my relationships in various countries, but I didn't find anything, but you see."

Chen Zheng mysteriously took out a kraft paper bag with moldy and ragged edges from his clothes.

"I actually found this in the old information room of the Temple of Fire. You have to thank that boy Alan for accidentally knocking it out."

Qingluan took the kraft paper bag and said in confusion: "Paper document?"

De Valoca no longer used paper documents to record important information twenty or thirty years ago.

Chen Xiang nodded, "The old information room in our Flame Temple is just a utility room. Because there are many research tasks recently and there are not enough places, I applied to clean up the old information room and wanted to set up a separate research room for myself. Then I asked Allen to help... Don't worry about these, take a look, the content is guaranteed to shock you."
