…
As they were talking, a group of people led by the Holy Maiden of Light had already walked down the stairs in a mighty manner and each stood in their designated position.
On the platform in the middle of the steps, the Holy Lady of Light stood with a scepter in hand and began to preside over the ceremony: "Thank you all for taking the time to come..."
Since calling herself the Holy Maiden of Light, Catherine has presided over dozens of ceremonies, if not hundreds. She has long lost her initial youthfulness and has become mature and steady.
At this moment, even when facing a group of difficult nobles, she remained calm and spoke in a neither hurried nor slow tone, displaying the majesty of the Holy Maiden of the Holy See of Light to the fullest.
Hearing her voice, the nobles who had just been in a state of panic due to the appearance of the masters of the Holy See gradually quieted down.
The opening words were quickly finished, and the Holy Lady of Light paused with her scepter. Her voice suddenly became solemn: "The ceremony of installing the statue has officially begun. Please invite the statue of our Lord."
As soon as the words fell, all the members of the Holy See straightened their expressions and spoke in a stern voice.
"Please ask for the statue of my Lord."
"Please ask for the statue of my Lord."
"Please ask the statue of our Lord..."
The deep and solemn voice flowed down the steps like water and spread all the way to the square. In an instant, the atmosphere in the square became particularly solemn.
Infected by this atmosphere, the nobles in the square also had a serious look on their faces.
Suddenly.
Suddenly, the sound of a war horse neighing was heard in the sky.
Everyone subconsciously looked up and saw a large carriage pulled by flying horses galloping towards them in the sky.
The carriage seemed to be branded with a floating magic circle, and it flew steadily in the sky. The upper half of the carriage had been removed, leaving only a wide bottom plate, on which a tall statue of the God of Light was emitting a warm luster in the sun.
Seeing this, the faces of the nobles in the square changed slightly.
Flying carriages were not unique in the Bright Continent, and they had seen them before. But it was difficult for ordinary nobles to get a flying mount, so who would be willing to use it to pull a carriage? This was like using a luxury car as a trailer, and only those who were extremely wealthy would do such a thing.
Throughout the entire Bright Continent, the only known flying carriages are those used by the Emperor of the Empire and the royal carriages used by several grand dukes and princes for diplomatic missions.
Seeing a flying carriage here really surprised them. They also did not expect that the statue of the God of Light would appear in this way.
"Welcome the statue."
Seeing the carriage getting closer and closer in the sky, the female leader of the Pegasus Knights climbed onto the Pegasus with the other nine Pegasus Knights, and then squeezed the horse's belly hard.
The ten Pegasus took two steps forward, suddenly raised their front hooves, spread their wings, and flew into the sky towards the carriage.
During the flight, the ten Pegasus suddenly separated from the middle, formed two columns, drew a heart shape in the air, and successfully merged with the carriage.
During the whole process, the Pegasus Knights' formation changed smoothly and quickly. The white Pegasus had a strong and agile posture, and its white wings were bathed in sunlight, which was simply a pleasure to watch from below.
Under the protection of the Pegasus Knights, the carriage carrying the statue of light landed steadily.
"Lord of Light, today Catherine leads all the clergy of the Holy See to pray here, praying that this statue in front of us can be officially placed in the Cathedral of Light in Thorn City and receive the devout prayers of thousands of believers..."
