Chapter 1051: Chapter 1050: Arrival in Vatican

Vatican!

This is a small country, filled everywhere with a sacred smell!

It is the holy land of churches, the church headquarters is set up in this country, and everyone worships God!

Lin Fan and Mansite got off the plane at the airport, and as they stepped out of the airport, they saw a row of cars parked outside, with a group of men in black standing in front of them!

These people wore loose clothes, but it could not hide their strong physiques!

And every one of them had a cross sword slung across their back!

Without a doubt, these were members of the Holy Knight Order!

The one leading them was a man with a crew cut who quickly came forward upon seeing Mansite, greeted him respectfully in English: "Deputy Commander Mansite, welcome back to God’s embrace!"

While speaking, the crew cut man put his left hand over his right chest, bowed to Mansite!

Mansite didn’t hesitate and did the same gesture!

This signifies respect!

Then, the crew cut man’s gaze finally landed on Lin Fan, curiously asking Mansite, "Dear Deputy Commander Mansite sir, who is this?"

"He’s my friend, the esteemed Pope wants to meet him!"

After introducing Lin Fan, Mansite also introduced the crew cut man to Lin Fan, "This is the captain of the Holy Knight Order!"

"Hello!" Lin Fan amicably extended a hand!

In response, the crew cut man glanced at Lin Fan and showed no intention of shaking hands but instead said to Mansite, "Dear Deputy Commander Mansite sir, the esteemed Commander sent us to pick you up!"

"Alright!" Mansite nodded.

Then, the crew cut man turned away without even looking at Lin Fan!

Lin Fan looked at his right hand suspended in mid-air, and then at the departing back of the crew cut man, he did not get angry but instead his lips curled up slightly in a mysterious smirk!

"Sorry, Boss has a peculiar temper!" Mansite apologized.

"His name is Boss?" Lin Fan asked curiously.

"Yes!" Mansite nodded.

"Alright! I’ll remember this name, let’s go then!" While speaking, Lin Fan withdrew his right arm suspended in mid-air and walked towards the car!

Upon hearing Lin Fan’s final words, Mansie’s brows furrowed tightly!

He knew Lin Fan’s personality well; he is not someone who likes to endure grievances. Since Boss showed such disrespect, Lin Fan will surely remember this grudge and will retaliate whenever he has the chance!

"Hopefully, this arrogant guy won’t cause trouble!" Mansite prayed silently!

Afterward, Mansite got into the car, and the group of cars immediately left the airport, driving towards the church headquarters!

The church headquarters is situated at the very center of the Vatican!

When the car carrying Lin Fan stopped and Lin Fan got out, he was struck by what he saw before him!

In front of him was a massive plaza, comparable to Tiananmen Square, and at the end of the plaza was a grand palace!

The palace was both tall and large, solemnly imposing, and extraordinarily luxurious!

Seeing the palace’s interior for the first time, Lin Fan felt as if he was looking at an album rather than reality because it was so magnificent and resplendent!

This is the most luxurious church worldwide, known as the Bright Church!

At this moment, on the vast plaza, there were many people sitting cross-legged, in dozens of rows, and each row extended from the edge of the plaza to near the church, with each row having twenty to thirty people!

The dozen rows added up to hundreds of people!

Everyone was making strange hand gestures, tightly closing their eyes, and muttering something unknown!

These people came to the church to pray daily, seeking peace!

The scene before them was indeed very spectacular!

"Nowadays, only these foreign devils believe in divinity; people in Huaxia no longer have faith, only believe in reality and science!"

Lin Fan silently sighed!

Not having faith can be both good and bad!

Faith serves as a spiritual support, able to grant a mysterious power that propels people to strive and advance!

But belief in science has its advantages, it prevents many people from going astray, or falling into cults!

"Follow me!" said Mansite, leading Lin Fan as they headed towards the distant solemn and spacious contribution!

Lin Fan closely followed!

Seeing Mansite walk by, some people who were praying kneeled to salute, respecting him deeply!

Mansite also respectfully returned the salute!

What should have taken a few minutes to walk, Lin Fan and Mansite took over ten minutes to traverse!

When they finally arrived at the church’s entrance, Lin Fan remarked, "You God’s disciples are truly troublesome, didn’t God ever tell you to save time? Isn’t time precious?"

Mansite smiled wryly, "It’s etiquette, Tyrant, if you had faith, you’d do the same!"

"Faith?"

Lin Fan thought carefully, shamelessly laughed, "My faith is myself!"

Mansite heard this and smiled wryly.

Lin Fan shrugged carefree, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and comfortably inhaled deeply!

Mansite’s face tensed, saying, "Tyrant, smoking is not allowed here!"

"So many damn rules!" Lin Fan grumbled unhappily, removed the cigarette from his mouth and crushed it in his palm, extinguishing it, leaving no burn marks on his palm!

Crack crack crack~

With a series of crisp sounds, Mansite placed both hands on the heavy wooden door and slowly pushed it open!

As the door opened, a rich incense aroma wafted out.

The interior of the great hall was as luxurious as its exterior, with wooden pillars erected on either side of the hall, each carved with the church’s mythical creatures, etc.!

At the very front was a tall, dark green cross!

"Isn’t this the cross that supposedly bound Jesus?" Lin Fan asked curiously.

"According to the Pope, it certainly is," Mansite replied.

"Wow! Jesus passed away centuries ago; the thing that bound Jesus must have long turned to dust. Your Pope is just deceiving these gullible ones," Lin Fan shook his head helplessly.

These believers are truly loyal; whatever the Pope says, they believe!

Lin Fan couldn’t help but wonder if he should gather such followers too?

Then he’d declare eggs are black, the sky is white, the ground is red, and hell exists underground, and he’d claim to be the creator of this world. Countless followers would believe him and spread the message; anyone who doesn’t believe would be forced to comply.

Just thinking about it, Lin Fan felt quite thrilled!

"Follow me, the Pope is still waiting for you!" Mansite said.

"Lead the way!" Lin Fan shrugged with a smile.

With Mansite leading, Lin Fan followed him to a small door at the back of the luxurious church, opened it, and passed through a corridor.

At that moment, a vast expanse appeared before Lin Fan’s eyes!

For a moment, Lin Fan thought he had arrived at a utopian paradise!
