We Want to See the Pope!

Considering the Pope's extraordinary intellect, reaction speed, and speed, Chen Mo couldn't help but become curious and immediately pulled off his shirt.

The skin beneath the clothes was exposed, but it wasn't smooth like a normal person's. Instead, it had a thick layer of purple scabs, covered with cracks, revealing the tender, bright red flesh underneath, just like a skin patient.

This is...?

Chen Mo stared at the Pope's corpse, frowning as he fell into deep thought. This didn't seem to be the kind of enhancement he had previously thought; rather, it seemed like... a mutation?

Chen Mo's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, this is the world after World War III. Nuclear war almost destroyed the entire world, and countless people died under the enormous power of nuclear weapons. However, many others barely survived, but were affected by nuclear radiation, and their bodies mutated. Most of them died one after another in a very short period of time afterward.

The Pope was likely one of them, but the mutations he underwent were quite unique. In addition to the changes on his body, his mental capacity, reaction time, and speed were also enhanced, which enabled him to survive in the post-war world and establish the Jehovah Church, thus building up Libya.

However, the nuclear radiation must have severely damaged his body. Although he was fortunate enough to have this beneficial mutation, his lifespan was greatly shortened, which explains why he suddenly died in the movie when he was only in his fifties.

Chen Mo's guess was correct. The Pope had mutated after being exposed to nuclear radiation, which gave him superhuman strength. When Chen Mo demonstrated his powerful learning ability and speed of improvement, the Pope even suspected that Chen Mo had also been fortunate enough to undergo a beneficial mutation due to nuclear radiation, just like him.

Having resolved his doubts, Chen Mo wasted no more time. He put the Pope's body away and set it aside before sitting down in the chair behind the Pope's desk.

"J.A.R.V.I.S., let's begin!"

"Yes, sir."

As soon as J.A.R.V.I.S. finished speaking, a pillar slowly rose from the outermost part of the desk directly in front of Chen Mo, and at the very top of the pillar was a small camera.

The Pope often gives speeches here, so naturally there is appropriate filming equipment.

Below the camera pillar, a screen popped up. As the camera's indicator light lit up, Chen Mo's face appeared on the screen. However, the image suddenly changed, and Chen Mo's face and even his clothes were completely transformed into those of the deceased Pope. Even the background behind him changed to the ethereal background commonly used by the Pope in his speeches.

In fact, with Chen Mo's exquisite control over his body, transforming directly into the Pope's appearance and imitating his voice wouldn't be difficult. However, with J.A.R.V.I.S. to do it for him, why bother with all that trouble?

In the movie, after the Pope's death, DuPont uses a virtual image to transform into the Pope's appearance, creating the illusion that the Pope is still alive, and uses the Pope's influence to continue ruling Libya.

"People of Libya, I have something important to announce now."

Inside the Church building, the Pope's voice emanated from loudspeakers installed throughout, causing everyone to stop what they were doing and listen intently.

Not only the Church building, but throughout Libya, all the televisions, screens, and projectors inside and outside every building in the city, as well as the screens on the giant airships floating in the sky above the city, stopped playing the Pope's brainwashing speeches and replaced them with live footage processed by J.A.R.V.I.S..

"A rebellion has just broken out in Libya!"

"Just now, Vice Chairman Dupont and the Joint Council mobilized a force to storm the Pope's Palace in an attempt to assassinate him!"

"The rebel forces killed all the Pope's Guard, but they have now all been killed by me. DuPont, who launched the rebellion, and all the members of the Council have been executed!"

"I now announce the abolition of Council, with High Priest taking over all departments, and everyone fulfilling their duties to ensure stability in Libya."

The effects of the "Bosean" potion became apparent here. Upon hearing the "Pope's" speech, there was no chaos or commotion. After confirming that their beloved Pope An Ran, everyone followed the "Pope's" orders, each performing their duties and maintaining stability.

John Preston and Elo Partger naturally heard the speech and knew that Chen Mo had succeeded. They immediately led a group of soldiers who had joined the Resistance Organization into the Pope's Palace with J.A.R.V.I.S.'s assistance.

When the elevator reached the 121st floor, the moment the elevator doors opened, the scene before them stunned everyone.

Hundreds of corpses were piled up together, and a thick layer of bright red blood had accumulated on the ground, even flowing to the elevator door and down the gap in front of the door.

John Preston and Elo Partjae exchanged a glance, both seeing deep shock in each other's eyes. Even the two of them dared not say they could handle so many elite soldiers.

After glancing at the bloody footprints left in the opposite passage, the two did not delay any longer and took the lead into this "mountain of corpses and sea of blood." The other soldiers followed suit.

"All the bodies were put into body bags and sent directly to the incinerator for cremation."

After giving his instructions, John Peston left his soldiers to clean up the bodies and bloodstains of the Pope's Guard, while he and Elo Partger headed upstairs to the Pope's residence.

A short while later, the two came down again, but this time Ailo Patjee had a body bag on his shoulder.

By this time, the other soldiers had already filled many bags with corpses and put them into the elevator. The two men put the bag containing the Pope's body together with the other bags, and then left the others to continue cleaning up while the two men took the elevator downstairs with the corpses.

As soon as the elevator doors opened, the two saw four High Priest standing in front of them.

"We demand to see the Pope! To confirm his safety!"

Upon seeing the two, a burly priest immediately stepped forward and spoke, while the other three also kept a close eye on them.

What happened today was far too unusual. First, a traitor appeared among the priests, then DuPont ordered a search and testing of all High Priest, and just as they were being tested, the Pope was assassinated!

It was DuPont and the Council who assassinated him!

This series of events happened too suddenly. Although they saw the Pope's video, it was not enough to reassure them. So the four of them rushed to the elevator to ask to see the Pope, but were told that John Peston and Father Elo Partger had already gone up with a squad of soldiers.

After what had happened, they dared not trust anyone at this moment!
