Chapter 1187: The Demonified Deputy Pope (Part One)
Fei almost instantly recognized this scepter.
This was the supreme scepter of the Holy Church, and it represented the unparalleled and unique power. Only that person who sat on the Holy Throne and glanced down at the continent was qualified to hold this scepter.
"You are… Platini?" A name instantly jumped into Fei"s mind.
Deafening laughter sounded in this s.p.a.ce again.
"Haha! That is right! It is me! However, poor soul! You should call me the great Pope Platini. Now, kneel and worship me. Also, kiss the land that I"m standing on. Perhaps I will show mercy and pardon your sins!" The man in white confirmed his ident.i.ty.
Platini! A man who was almost standing on the top of the Azeroth Continent!
The word "almost" was used since he wasn"t the real pope of the Holy Church. Above him, there was a man who was even more mysterious and majestic - Blatter!
Platini was a legendary and influential figure of the Holy Church, yet he was quite controversial.
This man rose up in the [Black-Cloth Shrine], and this shrine that was falling out of the power center saw Platini as their hope of redemption. At a young age, Platini showcased unparalleled talent, especially in the area of holy power. His cultivation speed of holy power was insanely fast! The [Black-Cloth Shrine] poured almost all its wealth and resources into Platini.
However, this man who became powerful and famous through the [Black-Cloth Shrine] killed the hope that this shrine had on his own.
After depleting most of the resources that the [Black-Cloth Shrine] could offer, Platini decided to betray this shrine and joined Pope Blatter in the name of the G.o.ds.
Many followers and believers of the [Black-Cloth Shrine] hated this man to their cores, but they couldn"t do anything.
After joining Pope Blatter"s side, Platini quickly obtained Blatter"s full trust using mysterious methods, and he soon jumped into the power circle of the Holy Church, becoming the Deputy Pope who led the Northern Regional Church. Soon, he was promoted again and moved to the Central Region. He was a figure who was only below Pope Blatter but above everyone else.
In the last dozens of years, it seemed like Pope Blatter was gradually retiring, and Platini tightly grasped onto the Holy Church. He promoted his henchmen and punished his oppositions, almost controlling the headquarters of the Holy Church. Now, many people saw him as the next pope; there were no other qualified candidates for this position.
Today, this figure who could make the continent shake under his feet appeared at a place that he shouldn"t be at.
Too many issues were highlighted when Platini appeared like this and had an impressive presence.
Platini!
Alexander!
The [Black-Cloth Shrine] saw both these men as the hope for its redemption, and these two men who were the most famous and influential met at this place for the first time.
When the four eyes met, a series of invisible sparks appeared.
Rumors said that Platini arrived at the Southern Region with the most elite force, and he was going to ambush the Human Emperor of the North and end the confrontation between the Holy Church and the Northern Region Empire.
It seemed like the rumors were proven true today.
Platini was planning to kill Fei, and he was going to kill Fei in such an unimaginable fashion!
"As the Deputy Pope, why are you here?" Fei asked with a frown.

Chapter 1187: The Demonified Deputy Pope (Part Two)
"Hahaha! Alexander, since you already guessed everything, why are you still asking? Why waste time and energy?" Standing on the top of the mountain, Platini slowly pulled off the golden mask and revealed a young and handsome face underneath. He looked young as if he was in his twenties, and he mocked with a contemptuous smile, "What? Do you want to drag on the conversation to buy time for your recovery? Hahaha!"
Fei"s face changed color, and he thought, "No wonder this man is one of the most powerful people in the world. He is intelligent, and he saw through my plan in a flash."
Platini continued, "However, even if you can buy more time and recover, what can you do? You are going to die today! There is no way around it! Hahaha! Don"t look at me like that! Human Emperor of the North, you are too conceited! Do you think that you can go anywhere in the world after becoming a G.o.dly king? That is why you got lured here by a simple bait! You fell into this trap that is especially prepared for you! You can only accept the fate of dying here!"
No emotion could be observed from Fei"s face, and he continued to slowly recover his strength.
"I have to admit that you brought me a ton of pressure, and my plan was almost obliterated." Platini couldn"t help it! While he was at an absolute advantage, he vented his smugness at will like all the villains in movies.
Platini said with a smile, "In the beginning, I thought that you are only a little disobedient bug, and I could easily wipe you out if I wanted to. In fact, I even used you as a saber! I arranged those masters of the Holy Church, who were disobedient toward me, to die in your hands, again and again, building up your reputation."
Fei was slightly surprised by what he heard, and he must admit that if the Holy Church used lightning-like strikes against him, there wouldn"t be the Northern Region Empire and the Human Emperor of the North.
Unfortunately, regardless of how powerful and intelligent people were, they always habitually ignored those weak threats due to their pride and big ego, and they would only get serious when the weak threats became big issues.
"Hahaha! I will tell you more. Don"t be surprised! You guessed right! Everything you saw is real! I"m only here for one reason; I"m the lord of this place. Everything here is under my control! Hahaha!" At this moment, Platini was like an elementary schooler who worked hard and obtained a full-mark on an exam, and he was venting his joy and smugness without holding back. His calm laughter gradually became hysterical.
"Goblins? They are only my toys! That is right! I created them, I now control them, and I need them to serve me. Rob, kill, and create chaos on the continent to let fear spread. Believing in the Holy Church will be the only way out, and what I need will acc.u.mulate…"
Fei"s brows twisted together.
With one of his hands on one of Elena"s shoulders, Fei"s golden holy power continued to heal the injuries on their bodies. However, under the illumination of the green light coming from the giant green boulder, this healing process was as slow as the moving speed of snails.
Seeing this, the mocking smile on Platini"s face intensified.
