Chapter 21 Houndstooth Bar(1/2)
‘Richards’ is the archbishop of the Xinguang Church in Wales, England.
It is also the "Purple-Clothed Bishop" recorded in some exorcist novels.
His power and responsibility was to manage the churches in various dioceses in Wales, England, and Bishop Cosche was directly under his jurisdiction.
He is the immediate superior of the bishops in various regions of Wales.
Because he wore a purple round hat and the Archbishop's regular clothes were also based on purple, so the Archbishop was also called the Purple Bishop in history.
Released from the 'British Office' in Wales two hours ago, there was another name called 'British Telecommunications Office' in that ghost place, but it was not the government department responsible for the telephone network.
The code is MI6, abbreviated as SIS, and the civil term is called the Sixth Bureau of the British Army.
Anyway, Archbishop Richards was locked in that department for several days, just like a terrorist being seen as the main finger behind the scenes.
As a devout clergy, the only thing that makes him interested is the development history of the three religions, the philosophical content recorded in the scriptures, and how close some of the epics recorded in the scriptures can be to world history.
Basically, this is the favorite place for all clergy from the Xinguang Cult to study.
Before being locked up, Richards never knew there was such a dark department in the country.
Fortunately, the guys there did not force the clergy to confess, or they released them in advance before they found the right direction to force the confession.
"It's really unreasonable! Exorcist...we?" Richards sat behind his Archbishop's special car seat and held his forehead with his hands.
Just now he received a call from the Holy See, asking him to immediately lead the clergy from other parishes of Wales to Cardiff, and also talked about how to perform the ritual of exorcism on the phone.
This is incredible... but the person who called was Pope Difangge, and Richards could not refute the other party... He could only be different in his heart. When did the Pope of Xinguang become so superstitious?
It took two hours to enter the Landolph Cathedral of Cardiff.
The situation outside on the way here shocked Richards. On the two-way road, there were long convoys of cars sailing outside the city, and there were endless traffic.
Let Richards know that everyone in the city is planning to leave Cardiff as soon as possible.
Basically all the families with cars were leaving outside with all their might. The road to the city was empty and open, as if only one car on Richards ran.
"This is really...what happened, Koszer, there were a group of people outside the church, and they simply regarded this place as a shelter, like an air-raid shelter..."
When Richards entered the cathedral, he immediately found Bishop Kosche, hoping to find a reasonable explanation from the other party.
Archbishop Richards was released in the secret department of the British government two hours ago. It seems that the top leaders of the government believe that Archbishop Richards is qualified to be locked up there as the Archbishop who manages the entire church in Wales.
But after he came out, Richards immediately received a call from Di Fangge, asking him to take people to Cardiff to resolve the evil spirit incident.
Then he was told a sacred ceremony of expulsion.
Until now, Richards has not figured out what is the reason in the middle, and they were suddenly released, evil spirits.
When he was locked up, he did not see the live broadcast or the Internet. At the same time, he was far away from Cardiff and did not see the evil spirit with his own eyes last night.
Bishop Kosz took a deep breath, "Okay, Archbishop, then I can only explain the reason to you carefully."
During the explanation, Coszhe also used his mobile phone to watch some videos circulating online and some live edits for Richards.
and British media reports on the Cardiff incident, such as the death toll.
After learning about it, Richards felt a little dizzy. "Holy Lord, we were locked up by the government because of some of the statements about the Apocalypse Year, and now we have been released because of an evil spirit incident caused by the Apocalypse Year."
Koszer said calmly, "I thought you would know the Archbishop. After all, I don't know these extraordinary events and think that they are not in a position, but I didn't expect that as an Archbishop, you don't know."
Richards felt a derogatory meaning from the other party's words, and maybe the other party did not mean to say that.
But Richards still made a fuss about his excuse, "I knew a little bit before, but now it's my first time meeting it."
What he wanted to force him to explain in his heart.
"Look at this news again. Prime Minister Meresa posted news to the public in Downing Street that the evil spirit incident in Cardiff will be resolved as soon as possible, and that the Holy See will be responsible for this incident...
Of course, the responsibility she said was not caused by the incident being caused by the Holy See behind the scenes, but we are responsible for solving it."
Richards saw the news, which was released ten minutes ago, and the female prime minister quickly turned the blame.
In short, she urgently needs someone else to solve it for her.
Kosz continued, "We must solve it. His Highness Shufien told me on the phone that as long as the Cardiff evil spirit incident is resolved, the British government will release all the arrested clergy in the country."
Richards took a deep breath, "Then, let's act quickly, hell, I still feel my mind is very confused. Holy Lord, if you really exist, is this a sign of the beginning of the apocalypse?"
"This ceremony requires three hundred pastors or priests, and there are a total of forty-five pastors in Cardiff's Diocese."
"Then you don't have to worry. I brought more than 280 pastors." Richards seemed particularly confident when he said this.
More than 300 pastors all entered the Landolf Cathedral, and each of them sat on a long chair.
Even though more than 300 people sat down, the entire cathedral was not filled.
The nuns distributed the holy bags they made in the afternoon to each priest. These were mostly male priests, but there were also female priests. This is the difference between the Xinguang Cult and the other two priests.
In addition to nuns, Xinguang Cult will also allow female clergy to enter the top level.
"The cowhide is not complete. We used all the items around us, seats, leather clothes, etc.... It looks rough, but it can definitely be used."
Cosche said in front of all the pastors.
The pastors looked at each other, most of them had just been released from the police station.
Next, Archbishop Richards told them a more shocking news that they were going to form a sacred ritual, a very ancient sacred ritual, specifically used to expel evil spirits.
The holy bag is, as recorded in the scriptures, a medium used to borrow the power of heaven.
Only in the hands of clergy can it work.
Outside the cathedral, the crowded people began to complain, it was already evening, but the clergy in the church had not started to act.
There are always some media reporters who are not afraid of where they are.
A British BBC reporter was broadcasting live on the outermost side of the cathedral.
Basically, all British people could see the story of the reporter in front of them as long as they sat in front of them. It was already evening, but the clergy inside had not taken action yet.
The rampage of evil spirits is about to begin. Once at night and the sun is no longer visible, the city will become a paradise for evil spirits to rampage.
"Maybe...what should I say... Does the Holy Lord really exist? I don't know, but the evil spirits really conflict with the Holy Emblem and the Holy Water... We can only hope for the pastors in the church...
I hope they can solve the problem completely before the liquid is injected... Now all the British are praying at this moment for the people of Cardiff..."
This capable and well-known BBC female anchor is still describing the situation in front of her diligently.
Then she heard the people around her scream and turned back to look in the direction of the cathedral.
In Landolf Cathedral, the huge and heavy carved brown wood door slowly opened.
At the front is Archbishop Richards holding a holy emblem in his hand. He was wearing a purple dress and could directly identify the other party's identity in the eyes of the people.
Bishop Purple is an absolute master in a diocese.
He was calm and serious, followed by Bishop Koszer, holding a golden holy bottle in his hand. It might be holy water or something else. The other party was walking very steadily and was careful with every step.
It's like being at the pace of a certain ritual, fearing that taking a wrong position will disrupt the process of the ritual.
The Archbishop of the Auxiliary and the Auxiliary Bishop were both beside the two old men.
Behind were three hundred priests holding holy bags in their hands, and two men formed a line in a row.
All of them had solemn and steady expressions. No one of them blocked the way for the advance clergy. They automatically separated the road.
This solemn team consists entirely of Archbishops, Bishops and Pastors.
The road they walked was extremely solemn.
The people around them began to warm up, and they knew that the church people were starting to act to expel evil spirits.
The church's actions will instantly calm the uneasy and panic people.
"Praise the Holy Lord! Praise Balimuir!" A devout believer began to kneel on one knee while Kosz and others walked by.
Such behavior is like a domino, affecting the people around you.
"Praise the Holy Lord! Praise Balimuir!"
"Praise the Holy Lord..."
More and more people began to kneel down and pray.
Even the female anchor who was on the outside was deeply touched.
Perhaps the British who were watching this scene through TV would also pray in person under this situation, murmuring words like the blessing of the Holy Lord.
After all, in their eyes, this moving forward team is so holy.
They walked all the way to the origin of the ‘White Bay Apartment’.
There are also two British troops stationed at the periphery of the United Kingdom, the "First Battalion of the Welsh Guards" and the "Prince of Wales".
In the early morning of midnight last night, through the observation equipment, it was actually a batch of camera instruments, and the evil spirits inside suddenly rushed out of the White Bay Apartment.
Although the British Army wanted to stop it in time, it would not have any effect on these dead evil spirits, but instead caused heavy losses to the two armies.
The death toll in the Cardiff Evil Spirit incident reached more than 800, but the death toll in the army has not yet been included.
If it is counted, it has already exceeded a thousand. It is too easy for an evil spirit to kill ten people in one night.
The sensation outside naturally attracted the attention of these two armies, and when they saw a formation of three hundred priests walking solemnly towards here.
