Chapter 1298 A Big Pie Fell From the Sky
Ronaldo and Leslie were stunned. They never expected such a windfall to fall into their laps. The 'Archangel' flipped his left hand, and a ring appeared in his palm.
On the screen is a relief of St. Peter fishing in a boat. This fisherman's ring is the Pope's token. The Pope saw it on the cross, but he was heartbroken. It was something he had hidden in a secret room.
Ronaldo accepted the fisherman's ring with trembling hands. Knights of the Templar Order then dressed him in the papal robes and triple crown. From that moment on, he was the chosen representative of God on earth, the Pope.
Leslie put on the cardinal's robes, and the two looked at each other. It was like a dream. They had gone from being lowly deacons and priests to becoming the Pope and the cardinal. The twists and turns of their lives were truly extraordinary.
Now that Ronaldo and Leslie have taken over the presiding over the burning of heretics, how can we let the archangel do such a menial job?
At Ronaldo's command, the Templars threw burning torches onto the pyre, which was already covered in oil and burst into flames upon contact with the fire.
The 'Archangel' leaped from the black bear's shoulder into the air. The black bear vanished instantly, and the archangel's golden armor and mask disappeared as well. He reverted to the monk's robes and mask he had worn when he first appeared.
The giant bird appeared out of nowhere, and the 'archangel' stood steadily on its back. The bird began to circle in the air, soaring over the heads of the spectators. The 'archangel' opened its arms, and a shower of sweet rain fell like a gentle drizzle.
The nobles, who were all ill to varying degrees, miraculously recovered after bathing in the sweet rain. They cheered and knelt down, repeatedly shouting "Lord! Angel! Long live the Lord!"
Standing on the back of the white egret leopard, Da Bao looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction. From this moment on, he truly transformed, no longer the reckless brute who only knew how to shout and kill.
He gently tapped the white egret on the back, and the white egret let out a long cry, flapped its wings, and soared into the sky...
The following day, the Vatican announced to the world that God had sent down lightning to burn Notre Dame Cathedral because some clergy had betrayed the Lord and the doctrine, and that this had nothing to do with Princess Sofia and her family.
Princess Sofia was appointed a cardinal, tasked with touring all of Europe...
……
Princess Sofia returned to France, and she and Zuo Wenbin were busy receiving the inheritance. Daisy was nowhere to be found; he was a completely irresponsible person who only knew how to run away when trouble arose.
Princess Sofia has put the title of Duke of Orléans on hold, and the decision on who will inherit it will have to wait until Desley returns and a family meeting is held.
Now, Zuo Mingyue, along with Nuannuan, Athena, and Edward have returned to London. Da Bao simply put Uncle Qing into his spatial storage and, using the White Egret Leopard, flew towards London.
The Vatican is only 1,400 kilometers away from London as the crow flies; at the speed of a white egret or leopard, it can be reached in a day with ease.
Da Bao had never been to London before, but he had read about London in his past life.
In 1666, London experienced its largest fire since its founding, displacing 800,000 people. Following this, Queen Elizabeth II decreed that all construction in London must use stone and brick, prohibiting the use of wood, and designated the sewer system as a century-long plan.
London's national strength increased rapidly after two hundred years of industrial revolution in the 18th and 19th centuries, and its population also increased at the same time. In 1900, London's population was around two million, but in just sixty years, London's population had surged to seven million.
In 1960, London was transforming from postwar conservatism to avant-garde modern culture, with buildings getting taller and taller, and its architecture becoming increasingly ahead of Europe and even the world.
The most striking feature of the Parliament House, the Elizabeth Tower on the banks of the Thames, is its bright orange double-decker bus, which was thirty years ahead of its time worldwide.
The streets were clean and orderly, with bicycles, motorcycles and cars traveling in their respective lanes. Children played in the streets, pigeons foraged for food, and the Beatles performed performance art in almost every square.
Even their clothing style led global trends, and for decades to come, so-called white-collar workers would imitate 1960s London in their attire.
Company clerks, government employees, and even insurance salespeople were all dressed in well-tailored Italian suits, carrying bags, walking down the street.
The women's attire was even bolder, with miniskirts and stiletto heels being commonplace.
Da Bao, arm in arm with Zuo Mingyue, strolled leisurely down the street, each holding a steaming cup of coffee.
Three days after returning to London, the young couple discussed it and decided to leave the children at home with Lu Xiu'e and Qin Qingyou so they could go on a date alone.
Zuo Mingyue can now chat with people in a London accent. On the surface, she is a pregnant European girl. If it weren't for her pregnancy, she would also like to walk the streets of London in a miniskirt and high heels.
Arthur and Susanna are officially together now. As soon as he returns to London, he's incredibly busy. He's a member of parliament, and the daily meetings and votes are a huge headache for him.
Arthur and Susanna have decided to hold their engagement ceremony in seven days. They have already sent out invitations. Da Bao and Zuo Mingyue have decided to go to a jewelry store to choose a set of jewelry for Arthur and Susanna as a wedding gift.
Da Bao's space is full of jewelry, including many pieces made by royalty, but those are antiques and not suitable as gifts for newlyweds.
Moreover, Da Bao and Zuo Mingyue also need to make a lot of clothes, such as clothes for the Duke and Duchess, and clothes for the children, who will be flower girls for Arthur that day.
So the young couple sneaked out. The biggest jewelry brand in London right now is Cartier, which has received royal warrants. Even Queen Elizabeth II, who is 34 years old this year, wore Cartier jewelry at her latest event.
Gold jewelry is no longer fashionable in Europe; instead, precious stones, diamonds, and jade are in vogue. Even some decades-old brands still employ overly conservative designs.
However, the newly opened jewelry company by Graff this year has already made a name for itself in London, so Da Bao and Zuo Mingyue strolled over to the Graff jewelry store on Oxford Street.
Da Bao always dressed simply and comfortably. He wore only a light blue shirt, light gray trousers, and leather shoes.
He appears to be just a handsome young man, but a discerning eye would recognize him by his attire as an extremely wealthy man. His shirt is handmade by an Italian designer, the buttons are made of gold, and his trousers and shoes are even more extravagant.
Zuo Mingyue can't wear overly fashionable clothes now, so she can only wear loose skirts. This simply dressed young couple pushed open the door of the Graff Jewelry Store.
