"Welcome, the two of you."
There were no followers in this church, only a person shrouded in a black robe standing there. He spread his hands, holding a scepter. This scepter looked a little shorter than the Pope's, and the Pope's scepter was entirely golden, while this one was pitch black. Other than that, the style of the scepter was identical.
None of these were the key point. The key point was that this person seemed to have been waiting here for Lin Xiao and the other to arrive.
"Who are you?"
Lin Xiao squinted his eyes. He felt very strange. This person shouldn't be here.
To be precise, this person should be unconscious in bed right now, not appearing here!
The Pope!
No, it should be a fake Pope.
"Who am I? Take a look, who do you think I am?" the Pope said, taking a step forward. The cloak he was wearing at this moment transformed into a pitch-black long robe, exactly like the clothes he usually wore as the Pope.
"This guy looks like the Pope, and dresses and holds things like the Pope. Can't he learn something good?" Qi Tian looked at the guy with disdain. "Even a handsome guy like me doesn't know to learn from someone, and insists on taking the appearance of a scummy old man."
"Perhaps it's a matter of personal aesthetics." Lin Xiao nodded in agreement. What was good about imitating such a scummy old man's appearance? If you don't like it, why not transform into a beauty? At least transform into a handsome guy. A youthful body is capable of doing things swiftly. Why create such an aged body? It's unclear what's so good about it.
"The two of you, why don't I let you truly experience what the meaning of my current body is." The fake Pope pointed the scepter in his hand at the two. Instantly, the scepter erupted with "holy light." To be precise, it was almost identical to divine light, but it was a dark substance.
Qi Tian's clone immediately emitted a holy light that made one feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.
One black and one white, they collided in the center of the church.
At this moment, both the fake Pope and the simulated holy light fell into a stalemate.
"Qi Tian, you can't even compare to this imitation?" Lin Xiao said, striking him unreservedly at this moment.
"What does 'imitation' mean?" Qi Tian looked at his clone struggling to emit holy light and asked curiously, feeling that 'imitation' was not a good word.
"Imitation means fake," Lin Xiao said casually, his attention fully on this fake Pope. This guy should be a part of the Dark Archmage.
But he couldn't tell which part of the Dark Archmage it was.
"Oh… my holy light is also an imitation. That makes sense."
Qi Tian said nonchalantly, "While you have the time to watch the show, why don't you help me?"
"Alright, since you're asking me, I'll lend a hand."
As soon as he spoke, the Sun Essence Gold instantly traversed space, whistling as it shot towards the false Pope.
The fake Pope, with almost no reaction, was struck to the ground by the Sun Essence Gold.
"As expected, this is the simplest and most brutal way," Lin Xiao nodded with great satisfaction. That's more like it.
