Chapter 256 The Foundation of the Holy See

When Ike arrived at the Vatican, the Holy See was ready.

They dismissed the ordinary people in the Vatican, including tourists, most of the papal guards, many priests, bishops, etc. Even the Pope temporarily left here through a secret passage and was protected by people from the Italian Ministry of Magic.

Standing in front of the only passage into the Vatican, Ike's way was blocked by twelve papal guards wearing bright silver armor, holding shields and spears.Their armor is very bright, and from time to time there will be a quick flash of silver light. At first glance, it is a fine product made by goblins.

"Stop! Intruder!" A man stepped forward, pointing a spear at Ike and shouted loudly.

Ike was speechless. He took out his wand and clicked on the suitcase. After making it smaller, he put it into his pocket. Then he swung forward suddenly, and monstrous flames appeared out of thin air, pressing down on those people.

"Defense!" After a loud shout, the 12 people stood up their shields in front of them. A strange magic wave passed by and actually formed a huge silver shield in the air.The flames hit the shield, making a crackling sound, and obvious cracks appeared on the shield.

"Crack, click..."

The guards gritted their teeth and barely kept their shields from breaking.However, Ike, who was not in the mood to play a turn-based game with these guys, saw the opportunity and swung another Shen Feng Wuying, easily shattering the silver shield, and the blazing flames instantly engulfed them.

Ike kept walking, waving his sleeves lightly, and a passage appeared in the flames.Amid the pitiful shouts of the guards, he quickly passed through and arrived at St. Peter's Square.

There was no one in the square, except for the huge stone pillar that was brought from Egypt in 40 AD, standing alone in the center of the square.After a brief glance, Ike moved straight towards the Vatican Palace without slowing down at all.

From a distance, he saw the five people guarding the palace gate.

They only wore a white robe, with their right arms exposed, and their beards and hair were white.He was standing barefoot on the steps in front of the Vatican Palace without any shoes. He was holding a long wooden stick in his hand. The top of it was wrapped with something unknown, and it was emitting a soft white light.

"boom!"

Ike stopped at the bottom of the steps, but the five people stepped forward in unison, and the wooden sticks in their hands paused on the ground, making a neat sound.

"Heir to the Dark Lord, leave here immediately!" the old man in the middle said in a low voice, but it could be clearly heard in Ike's ears.

"Hand over what you once took away from the wizard, and I will leave!" Ike's wand pointed at the old man who spoke, his tone was very firm.

"heresy!"

The old man shouted after hearing the words, and then raised the wooden stick in his hand. The top of the stick glowed brightly, and a huge white light struck directly at Ike.

Ike didn't recognize what kind of magic this was. He guessed that it was unique to the Holy See. He waved his wand upwards, and a golden beam of light shot up into the sky and hit it directly.At the same time, he stretched his left hand forward, and the double protection of silver light shield and white barrier appeared, which was regarded as insurance.

In the air, the beams of light collided fiercely. In just a moment, the golden color took over, pushing the white beam of light to quickly attack the five old men.The old men would not sit still and wait for death. Two of them also raised their long sticks. Two light beams that also emitted bright white light melted in instantly, causing the golden color to stop.

The remaining two did not watch the show. They lifted up their robes and rushed down the steps with long sticks in their hands, shouting "heresy" in their mouths.

"when!"

The long stick hit the protection in front of Ike almost at the same time, and a small crack was directly created in one blow.Ike looked coldly, stepped out with his right foot, and a golden mysterious magic circle suddenly appeared under his feet, and the huge force instantly knocked the two people away.

Taking another step forward, the magic circle expanded rapidly. He stretched his five fingers forward and then pulled hard. The bodies of the two old men who flew out suddenly stopped in mid-air, and then fell towards Ike's body at an extremely fast speed. behind.

After two muffled sounds, the two old men fell down beside the stone pillar in the center of the square, but the long sticks in their hands fell lightly to Ike's feet.

He lowered his head and glanced, then hooked the long stick with his foot and fell into his hand.With just one glance, he recognized what was wrapped at the top. It was just mithril, but the material of the stick was very interesting, something he had never seen before.

The three old men who were still holding on watched helplessly as the long stick in Ike's hand became smaller and put it into his pocket again. This scene made them bear even more pressure.It was hard for them to imagine that all of this was done while Ike was still in a stalemate with them.

The gap is beyond imagination.

After putting away the wooden stick, Ike turned his attention to the three people who were still insisting on the steps. With a slight shake of his right wrist, countless golden threads emerged from the tip of the stick, spinning along the light beam and attacking the people on the opposite side. White light beam.

In just the blink of an eye, the golden thread weaved neat patterns on the surface of the white light pillar. Strands of white light were peeled off and fell into Ike's hand along the golden thread.

"I see..." As soon as Bai Guang got his hands on it, Ike already understood the principle of this magic. It was quite similar to the Patronus Charm, except that what drove them was not happiness, but piety to the so-called "god". .

"Is this what you rely on? It's not that good..." As he said that, he waved the wand gently, and the golden threads immediately increased sharply, dismembering the magic of the old people in the blink of an eye. At the same time, the golden mysterious magic circle under his feet also Include them.

With a slight wave of the wand downward, dozens of golden threads tied the three people in the air.Ike walked closer slowly, reached out and snatched the long stick from the old man's hand, and asked, "What material is this made of?"

"Heretic! The Lord will punish you!" The old man roared with his eyes widened, as did the other two, speaking loudly in a language that Ike could not understand.There is no need to understand that left and right are not good words. Ike is not in the mood to waste time with them, so he directly snatches the long stick from their hands, shrinks it and puts it in his pocket.

It's just something that you will find out sooner or later with a little trouble in the future.

Waving their hands, the three of them fell hard to the stone pillar under the pull of the golden thread. They followed in the footsteps of their companions and fainted.Ike removed the magic circle under his feet and walked into the Vatican Palace under protection. This place has been the residence of the Pope since the fourteenth century.

Walking into the palace, you will see a wide hall. After passing a gorgeous door inlaid with gold thread, there is a spiral staircase to the top floor. There are also three doors open on the wall, one of which is clocked, which can Saw a huge cross at the very back of the room.

Stepping inside, you will find the world-famous Sistine Chapel, with Michelangelo's masterpiece "Genesis" on the ceiling.After a quick glance, Ike left. There was nothing here that he was looking for.

After a quick search of the Vatican Palace, Ike found nothing. There were no magic items here, and there was no magic fluctuation at all. It was just an ordinary residence.

He walked out with a cold face and looked at the stone pillar in the middle of the square. The five old men were still lying there quietly.After waving, the remaining long stick fell into his pocket.He walked over, took out his wand and pointed it on the head of an old man, and said softly:

"Legilimency..."

Ike quickly searched for information that was useful to him, but everything he heard and saw in the old man's mind seemed to be covered with a veil, as if there was a force protecting those secrets.After looking at it for a long time, he couldn't help but feel a little angry. He immediately got angry and simply broke through the protection.

At this moment, Ike suddenly woke up from his Legilimency state and looked solemnly at the Vatican Palace, which he had just come out of.

There, there was a powerful wave of magic, and soft white light shone from the doors and windows.Thinking of the quick glimpse in the old man's mind, Ike already knew what it was:

The last defense of the Holy See - an "angel".
