Chapter 933: St. Jessica's Cathedral

"Whew~ finally caught up. It is said that after the sun sets, the Holy See will close its doors, and it seems to be true. Alfie panted as she looked at the sparsely populated but ajar Cathedral of St. Jessica.

After he and Celent left the desolate interior of the imperial capital, they did not find a suitable means of transportation, and had to start a long run in time to arrive in time for the sun to set.

At this time, there is still a quarter of an hour before the sun sets, and the setting sun has gilded the Basilica of St. Jessica with a magnificent golden red, which looks solemn and sacred.

As the imperial capital branch of the Holy See, St. Jessica's Cathedral is named after the Holy Goddess Jessica in the Holy See in the Great War of Nations, and was built by Otto the Great himself.

St. Jessica's Cathedral is made entirely of white marble, with pointed pilasters, each of which is carved with the lily of the valley that is said to be the favorite of St. Jessica. The church has 360 minarets, which pierce into the sky like a dense tallinn, with a unique style and rigorous structure.

After the completion of the Basilica of St. Jessica, it was established as the dual core of the Holy See on the Holy See on the Holy See, together with the Great Chapel of Light on the Holy Hill of the Holy See of the Holy See. For some indescribable reason, the magnificence of St. Jessica's Cathedral even rises above the Great Church of Light, and the number of pilgrims who come here every year is endless.

At the moment, however, the Cathedral of St. Jessica is deserted, with few visitors except for the occasional glimpse of the clergy passing by through the half-open doors.

"Selent?" Alfie took two steps forward, only to find that Celent hadn't followed, and when she looked back, she found Celent stunned, with a look of homesickness on her face.

"Ah~ nothing. Silent came back to her senses and smiled apologetically at Alfie. He remembered Uncle Vincent, and if nothing else, it wouldn't be long before he could be reunited with Vincent, which made him suddenly a little nervous.

Alfie seemed to see his crampedness, beckoned to him, and said softly, "Don't be nervous, this is a branch of the Holy See, you should feel cordial." ”

Celent blinked vigorously: "Yes, Uncle Vincent is here, we are going to meet him soon!"

"Silence!" a middle-aged priest happened to pass by the gate, and scolded with a dissatisfied expression, "Don't look at what kind of place this is! ”

"You're right!" Sellant nodded earnestly and saluted.

The middle-aged pastor looked at Selent's clothes, frowned slightly, as if he wanted to say something, and after hesitating for a while, he chose not to say a word, and hurriedly walked to the back hall of the church.

"Elfi, don't you think the atmosphere in the entire Holy See branch is a little weird. Silent looked at the back of the middle-aged pastor who left in a hurry, and asked a little worriedly.

"Don't worry, this atmosphere shouldn't affect you anyway. Alfie was reassured, knowing that after the petrification of Coughren, the Holy See Branch must have had a way of knowing about him, and now the situation had already been expected by him, and it was far better than he had guessed. At least apart from a few tourists, the clergy seemed calm and unexpectedly panicked.

"What are we going to do next?" Celent glanced at the empty foyer, not a single clergyman, and he really didn't know where the people from the Holy See branch had gone.

"Let's get someone to inquire about first. Alfie was also a little speechless about this situation, isn't the Holy See afraid that someone will come to make trouble? not even a person to maintain order - of course, there is no such thing as maintaining order in the absence of tourists, but it is not so difficult to find someone, right?

"According to the normal layout of the church, through this foyer, you should be able to find some of the clergy's living rooms. Slent thought for a moment, leading Alfie in the direction where the middle-aged priest had just disappeared. Theoretically, he should have been more familiar with the structure of the church than Alfie.

St. Jessica's Cathedral is a famous building built by Otto the Great with all his might, and the foyer alone is enough to cover thousands of square meters. Since the door to the main hall of the foyer is usually locked and only opened on major festivals, they have to enter through the side door, but tragically, when they enter the side door, they find that this is not the main hall of the church, but a 100-meter-long corridor.

This corridor makes clever use of light and geometry, and looks like a straight passage, but upon entering, it is found that the passage is actually a wonderful arc, and with the change of time, the light from the zenith window also changes, and the visual effect of the corridor has become ever-changing. If you don't have someone familiar to lead the way, you will quickly get lost in it.

"Interesting. When Alfie noticed this change, his heart moved slightly, and he felt a strange magic fluctuation from here, as if it were some kind of illusion. If it weren't for the fact that Alfie's illusion came from the Sacred Realm Illusionist, he would not have been able to perceive the existence of such an illusion that existed as if it were nothing, and it would have been even more impossible for ordinary people.

It seems that the Holy See Branch is not as simple as it seems, at least there is absolutely no illusion like it exists in Holy Magic.

After realizing the existence of illusions in the corridor, Alfie was not as flustered as Serent, after all, he saw that this illusion was not much of a threat, but only combined with the change of light to add to the mystery of the whole church, and at the same time had a certain confusing effect. Even someone like him who is only a crude illusionist can easily find the right direction.

After entering the corridor, Alfie and Septe unknowingly switched roles, and it became Alfie to guide Celent forward, but Alfie did it very skillfully and did not let Septe notice this, and then felt unhappy.

"Selent, have you noticed? Alfie pointed around quietly, and every few steps there was a huge portrait hanging on the corridor, which looked like it should be a high-ranking figure of the Holy See.

"This is a way for the Holy See to remember the sages, and theoretically every church has such a showroom. It's just that it is indeed relatively rare to see the Cathedral of St. Jessica displayed in the promenade. "Elfie's problems are tickling at Selent, and that's what he does best.

"In the church in the small town of Frosacken, I didn't notice a place like a showroom. Alfie chuckled.

"That's because the town was so poor, and in order to save money, Bishop Flon omitted the showroom when the church was built. Sellent blushed a little and said that it was only after experiencing it for himself that he understood that the showroom where the portraits of the sages were displayed was very important, and everyone who passed by here would be unconsciously in awe, and their hearts would be filled with admiration and remembrance for the sages - at least it was very effective in increasing the power of faith.
