To Four Thousand Years Later

Even though Leonardo assassinated thirteen cardinals in a fair manner, his main mission was still not completed. That can only show that although the group of cardinals has died. But their minds are still there. Their arrangement will come into effect from day to day.

But who the beneficiary will be after it takes effect is unknown. So Leonardo will go to Vienna one day, ready to take over the follow-up matters.

As for the possibility that the cardinals are not dead, it can be ignored. It wasn't because they bought flowers and wine in front of Leonardo, but because Leonardo had seen them for the last time under the curtain that night.

They are not helpless. Among all the people who died from the poison of "flowers and wine" in history, they may be the group of people who knew the cause of their death the most clearly except for the suicide of Pepin III. The moment they realized that they were poisoned, they immediately have communicated with each other and reached a consensus. Originally, they couldn't perceive the greatness of Leonardo, and they couldn't even perceive Leonardo's psychic fluctuations. But after their psychic powers merged... they were able to see that they clearly saw how great and what a dazzling brilliance shone on Leonardo's body. That psychic power has probably reached the level where he can fight against the army by himself. Also, he is rich enough. In this era, money can control laws, politics, culture, and even religion. Its strength has reached an unprecedented peak in history until now, and I am afraid it will continue to swell.

The Power of Lines Today's people are getting smarter and more realistic. Especially when those smart people go to talk to them about justice, traditions, and dreams. It's better to give a price directly and generously. Just because they are smart people, they are more aware of their own powerlessness when money leaves them, or even hits them back; they also know that if they hold money in their hands. They can easily reach the heaven on earth and enjoy the blessings of prosperity. In order to get more money, they can cast their consciences into steel, harder and harder. As the tallest and smartest person in the world, Leonardo can only be destroyed physically. But now the cardinals have seen it too. With Leonardo's psychic power, even if he sent out a large army, it would be impossible for him... let alone a mere assassin.

In other words, since Leonardo is determined to kill them, they have no possibility of escape.

Rather. If they admit to death now, they can still enjoy the treatment of a cardinal. Better than being knocked out of the dust by Leonardo. After death, people around him will suffer together, and even their names will be erased from history. It was Leonardo's mercy.

No way, they made a mistake—Leonardo is really Hector's backing. That Hector who looked silly was actually the eagle dog that lured the enemy for Leonardo...or bait?

Even the pope is his pawn. What exactly is Leonardo trying to do?

In short, no matter what he wants to do... the group of cardinals can only choose one thing. Since they made a wrong bet, they are willing to bet and admit defeat.

Therefore, after realizing that they were poisoned, they immediately used psychic power to suppress the poison, and at the same time quickly communicated in their brains and left a good news...then passed away peacefully. In fact, it was precisely because they all left their messages that several people even stated that it was not the Pope who poisoned them, but someone who could not be said...Those passers-by felt confused because of this. , the whole Theocracy is clear and clear. After the pope was locked up, the incident became so troublesome that even seven or eight-year-old children knew about it. They don't need to excuse the Pope. no stand. There is no reason.

But they write this when they meet a book. Instead, it made the pope invincible.

Since the case of the bishops of the district stated that the murderer was not the Pope but someone else, and it was impossible for them to lie for the Pope... then at this time, who would be the first to jump out and accuse the Pope of being involved in the murder. Who is most suspected of murdering the cardinal. Aside from the pope, the most murderous motive is not the person who intends to frame the pope?

"You're lucky, Hector.

Leonardo chuckled softly: "I didn't expect that they would write down their encounters before they died... Well, thank you."

Yastaru gently wiped off the oil stains around his mouth for him, and fed him a well-fried beef loin.

She wrapped Leonardo's right arm, showing a sweet and harmless smile, as pure and moving as a lily carved from crystal. But the Pope didn't even dare to look at her, he just stared at the plate - and Jastaru also didn't look at the Pope, but stared wholeheartedly at Leonardo's side face. When the sun went down, Leonardo and Jastaru finally arrived in Vienna through regular channels.

When he came here, he was invited to the Pope's Palace for dinner. Many people were worried when they heard the news, fearing that the most famous young artist in the world would also be poisoned and killed by the Pope or someone else.

Although this is unlikely, it still exists after all. After all, only thirteen cardinals died yesterday, so it is not impossible for Leonardo to die today...

As soon as Leonardo and Yastaru were seated, the Pope immediately ordered a sumptuous dinner with a variety of fine wines. And dispersed all the attendants, not even a wine waiter remained. This can't help but make people wonder whether this is actually going to let Leonardo serve the Pope. Or did the Pope himself serve Leonardo?

"I think they wrote Yu Shu for their own benefit.

Hector Sanxie chewed the food slowly, smiled and replied in a low voice: After all. There you are here. This will keep their relatives from running into a wall. Since Leonardo is a supporter of Hector III, those who oppose the Pope will naturally smash their heads and blood—I am afraid there is no south wall harder than Leonardo in this world.

Even the king of Chu or the king of Teuton, the two most powerful monarchs in the world at present, cannot forcibly change Leonardo's decision... It can even be said that Leonardo's position in their hearts is unknown. How much higher than this little Solomon Theocracy.

They are also worried that Leonardo has everything and lacks everything. He wants to bribe others and I can't get what he wants. After all, this man is a little afraid of guilt. There are almost no disadvantages. If they knew that the master behind the Pope was Leonardo, they would probably give this piece of fat to Leonardo with a smile, and even give the Pope some cash gifts for Leonardo's sake. of.

"After all, no one is willing to hinder Leonardo's will. Because you are everyone's friend. Hector III stopped eating, and bowed his head respectfully with an almost humble attitude: "Or... your wisdom , wealth, and power to make anyone willing to be your friend "Where's the word. And, no more eating?"

Leonardo smiled

"Don't eat, don't eat," Hector III smiled meekly, not at all seeing that he was the Pope, "I've been hungry for days. Eating too much hurts my body.

After all, he has been starving for several days, and the food given to him these days is only two spoonfuls of wild vegetables with some flour...except that it is hot, it is not even as good as prison food. And it doesn't matter if I'm full, it's just to the extent that he can force me not to die.

After a long period of starvation, it is easy to die suddenly by eating a large amount of food suddenly. So in a sense, the Holy Trinity meal that the College of Cardinals originally intended to arrange for him. It was almost a death sentence.

"There is one more thing I want to ask you.

asked the pope respectfully. Leonardo replied briefly: "Talk."

"At tomorrow's trial meeting, I want to resign from the position of Pope... Judging from my ability, current reputation and public opinion, it is really not suitable for me to continue to bear the name of Pope.

Hector III stood respectfully beside Leonardo, bent over and bowed, lowered his gaze, and said calmly: "Therefore, I want to resign and step down to serve as secretary-general—this is what I can do. Competent for the office. As for the new pope, will be elected from the college of cardinals according to the custom.

Of course he knew that the thirteen cardinals had all passed away after yesterday's dinner.

But, there is one more. The Theocracy of Solomon still has the last bishop! It was Leonardo da Vinci who was eating dinner slowly in front of him.

After being silent for more than half a minute, Leonardo swallowed the food in his mouth.

Yastaru, who was on the side, immediately came up and carefully wiped off the stains for Leonardo, and handed Leonardo the iced limoncello to rinse his mouth.

After Leonardo finished rinsing his mouth, he replied lightly: "Sure. Don't make up your own mind next time.

It is... Your Majesty. The pope replied respectfully.
