From Councilor to Archbishop Chapter 582: Stand Up

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The cheers of the Habsburg troops triggered by Tony's death were so loud that they caused a lot of panic inside the Sistine Chapel.

    There are now more than twenty cardinals gathered in this room, including Italians, French and English people, and everyone is helping the true elect pope to cast spells.

    Although they could not see the situation outside, most of them knew who Florentino was. The cheers for his name resounded from outside, which obviously meant that something was going on that was unfavorable to their side.

    In their opinion, the current situation is really a nightmare, although the plan to really elect the pope seemed quite effective before the war, which once gave them great confidence.

    With new weapons that can be put into practical use, effective alliances have also been organized.

    But things took a turn for the worse. The Republic of Liguria, which was said to be an ally, defected at the last moment, and the seemingly solid city was captured by a powerful enemy overnight.

    Most people still can't figure out why a few hours ago, the Roman army came out of the city to cover up the Spanish army, but a few hours later, the situation turned out to be that every city gate was captured by the enemy, and the walls of Rome and the Vatican were attacked.  The enemy fell, leaving only a few strongholds inside the Vatican Castle still resisting.

    They more or less have their own interests in this city, and now all of this will obviously cease to exist.

    The shops and sites they own will be handed over to the members of the Habsburg family, not to mention that the prestige of the Roman Church will be discredited. The interests of these cardinal archbishops are already closely connected with the Cyric Church.  Their motherland was also an enemy of the Habsburg Empire, so they sincerely hoped that the church could survive this test.

    But the situation was really bad. Cheers outside the chapel kept coming one after another. What was even worse was that the ominous cheers were getting closer and closer.  It seems like they will be coming in soon.

    In addition to the cheers, another sound came in.

    "The emperor has an order, those who put down their weapons will avoid death!"

    "The emperor has an order, those who put down their weapons will avoid death!"

    "The French are the ones who kidnapped His Majesty the True-Elect Pope. You Swiss are all the sons of His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty the Emperor knows it."

    "The true Pope and all the cardinals, don't be afraid, His Majesty the Emperor is coming to save you right away!"

    "Even if you are a Frenchman, you can avoid death as long as you put down your weapons immediately!"

    These repeated calls for surrender made the cardinals.  Several cardinals in France were particularly frightened.  Even at this point, the Habsburg family still misses their good French friends.  It seems that the emperor has not forgotten King Francois's behavior of breaking his promise and getting rich for the time being. He has no way to deal with the king who is far away in Paris. It seems that he will use them to sacrifice the flag.

    All eyes were focused on the face of the true chosen pope.  The panicked subordinates hope to seek comfort from the face of their leader. Although his plans have proven to be no match for the Warlock Royal Family, at this moment these red archbishops still seek to perform outstandingly in elections and governance.  His Majesty the Medici relied on him.

    Fortunately, as usual, the face of the true chosen pope is still calm and calm, giving everyone the strength to feel at ease.

    It¡¯s just as if the situation is not desperate.

    In fact, the real elected Pope can be regarded as the person who knows the situation best on Sunday. He knew the bad news the moment Tony died. He could understand it from the insignificant and clear cold feeling in his heart, and followed  His loyal subordinates who had been loyal to him for many years had died on the battlefield.

    But he didn¡¯t let any emotion show, nor did he comfort the Frenchman alone.  Any words of comfort at this time are meaningless and will only make the members of the French faction more uneasy.

    The true chosen pope just kept raising his voice and prayed to Sirik with the loudest voice in his life.

    As his voice rose higher and higher, his spirit became higher and higher, but at the same time, wrinkles began to appear on the face of the true chosen Pope, and his natural black hair began to change color at an extremely fast speed.  .

    Waves of extremely pure purple air surged out from the eyes, mouth and nose of Sirik's portrait on the top of the hall, and drifted towards the place where the fierce battle was taking place outside the door.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Tony's death triggered the second major retreat of the defenders after losing the city wall. In addition to the still fierce resistance on the steps of the Sisti Chapel, although the guards guarding various buildings in the Vatican Castle were basically elite Swiss,  But they all fell within less than ten minutes after Tony's death.

    After losing their formation, the Swiss elite were no longer a tough nut to crack. They faced the siege and were quickly swallowed up one by one.Even at this point, the persuasion to surrender did not receive any response from these stubborn Swiss people. While they cursed the Habsburg family, they shouted the name of God and fought to the death with their last strength.

    Of course, Ladislaus commanded the troops to kill all the Swiss without mercy.

    Since Ladislaus was willing to serve as a front-line commander, Ferdinand naturally transferred part of the Spanish army command to Ladislaus. As a former enemy commander, Ladislaus was fully capable of commanding Spanish officers.

    He found a location in St. Peter¡¯s Basilica where he could observe the entire battlefield. This cathedral has undergone decades of renovation and is still not completed. The main building and ancillary facilities are still being added year after year.

    Here he could see even the resistance of the Sistine Chapel crumbling.

    Although the Habsburg side no longer has two "Guardian" warriors, Misrilla, Sirica Boss and Jarlaxle are still sharp enough as arrow figures. Oswald no longer dares to appear again.  The other resisters were unable to prevent the three men from approaching the still closed door of the Sistine Chapel with their troops behind them.

    Since he did not have the full support of the Ben Church, in order to prepare for future events and avoid causing any damage to this building where the remains of many true elect popes were buried, Ferdinand did not bring too many people into the place, but instead sent the most elite ones.  Companies of Guards patrolled the area to control possible looting and desecration.

    There are only Baron Galliani and a dozen other guards around him, but when the situation reaches this point, there should be no problem.

    But the Roman Church¡¯s thousands of years of accumulation have indeed created problems when they could not have caused problems.

    ¡°Children who devoutly believe in God, I am the true chosen pope, God¡¯s pastor on earth.¡±

    All the Cyric believers on the battlefield, whether they were Swiss, Spanish, or subjects of the United Kingdom of Ladislaus, suddenly heard in their ears the steady and majestic voice of Medici's true election of the Pope.

    "My will is completely free. No one is coercing me. I still represent the highest and only will of His Majesty God in the world."

    "Pious believers, stand up, stand up and defend your faith!"

    Ferdinand is not a follower of Siric, but he and Ladislaus are strong enough to have a natural affinity for the magic network, so they can also intercept the power of the true chosen pope spread through the magic network.

    Ferdinand immediately realized the danger, and he did not hesitate to activate the "magic absorption" attached to a pin on his body.

    Just after he completed this magic, several "flame arrows" fell on him intensively.

    Three rockets were fired by a mage who had access to at least the sixth level of the Magic Network.

    The Releaser is a rising star among the Spanish court mage, a young mage who is deeply trusted by Ferdinand. He has already come into contact with the seventh level of the Magic Network when he is less than thirty years old.

    This mage was born into a Spanish noble family. Although he was not a clergyman, he had always been deeply immersed in Sirik's teachings.

    Ferdinand had always known that he was a devout Cyric believer, but only at this moment did he realize that he was so pious.

    Of course he had other more powerful attack magic, but he knew that Ferdinand had a pendant that was immune to the effects of instant death magic, so he did not use "Finger of Death" and "Dissociation".

    His eyes now glowed with purple light, and he continued to launch continuous attacks on his monarch. The second magic in his hand was taking shape.

    At the same time, the Archbishop of Toledo also drew his war hammer and swung it at his emperor.
