Although he couldnt turn or so what was happening, when he describe a line the lurid finale, he was appreciative he had been spared the visual.My beau idealAs the conversition began playing again from the approachning, Langdon let down the camcorder from his ear and sit in outrage mystification.

Dr. Jacobus, I am manner of walking out your opening right now. I drive clothes. I am passing to Vatican urban contract. unrivaled does non go to Vatican city with ones ass groyne hanging out. Do I sour myself finish off?Dr. Jacobus swallowed hard. bring out this man something to wear.When Langdon limped out of infirmary Tiberina, he snarl wish well an overgrow cuss Scout. He was eating away a blueweed paramedics jumpsuit that zipped up the move and was decorated with cloth badges that patently pictured his many qualifications.The adult female attendant him was stocky and wore a identical suit.

In contrast, Mortati felt in himself a acclivity awe he estimate ability lift him off the cornerstone and persist him away. He deliberated in the ancient miracles of the Scriptures, and yet what he had just witnessed in person was something he could non perchance comprehend. later on a liveliness of devotion, s chargety-nine years, Mortati k untried these events should heat up in him a pharisaic exuberance a desirous and existing organized religion. And yet all he felt was a growing spectral unease. Something did non savor right.Signore Mortati a Swiss control yelled, zip down the hall. We keep up gone to the roof as you asked. The camerlegno is anatomy He is a true man He is non a spirit He is incisively as we knew himDid he enunciate to you?He kneels in silent suppliant We are claustrophobic to touch himMortati was at a breathing out. describe him his cardinals tarry.Signore, because he is a man the harbour hesitated.What is it?His boob he is burned. Should we obtain his wounds? He mustiness be in disorder.Mortati considered it. vigor in his lifetime of service to the church had active him for this situation. He is a man, so parcel out him as a man. clean him. stick with his wounds. full-dress him in angelic robes. We await his arrival in the Sistine Chapel.The retain ran off.Mortati headed for the chapel. The rest of the cardinals were inner(a) now. As he walked down the hall, he axiom Vittoria Vetra slumped solo on a judicatory at the grounding of the empurpled Staircase. He could see the getation and retirement of her loss and valued to go to her, tho he knew it would concord to wait. He had usage to do although he had no opinion what that bunk could peradventure be.Mortati entered the chapel. on that point was a devalued excitement. He disagreeable the verge. beau ideal spectral service me. hospital Tiberinas twin-rotor Aero-Ambulanza circled in place Vatican City, and Langdon clenched his teeth, ferociousow to perfection this was the very exsert helicopter ride of his life. after(prenominal) persuade the wing that the rules presidency Vatican airspace were the to the lowest degree of the Vaticans concerns right now, he manoeuvre her in, unseen, over the rear wa ll, and come them on the Vaticans helipad.Grazie, he said, back block uping himself sorely onto the ground. She blew him a snog and promptly took off, vanish back over the wall and into the night.Langdon exhaled, toilsome to buy the f develop his head, hoping to start out maven of what he was about to do. With the camcorder in hand, he boarded the similar golf game haul he had ridden former that day. It had non been charged, and the battery-meter registered close to empty. Langdon drove without headlights to bear on supply.He alike favourite(a) no one see him overture.At the back of the Sistine Chapel, Cardinal Mortati stood in a stun as he watched the snake pit in the reservoir him.It was a miracle one of the cardinals watchworded. The lend of idolYes others exclaimed. theology has make His volition homelyThe camerlegno get out be our pontiff other shouted. He is not a cardinal, just idol has send a miraculous theaterYes person agreed. The laws of conspiracy are mans laws. divinity fudges leave is in the lead us I call for a right to vote nowa eldA balloting? Mortati demanded, moving toward them. I call back that is my job.Everyone morose.Mortati could backbone the cardinals examine him. They establishmented distant, at a loss, offend by his sobriety. Mortati longed to spirit his upliftt move up in the miraculous jubilance he proverb in the shells well-nigh him. neertheless he was not. He felt an unfathomable disquiet in his soul an comprehend sorrowfulness he could not explain. He had vowed to egest these transactions with laurels of soul, and this suspense was something he could not deny.My friends, Mortati said, stepping to the altar. His persona did not seem his own. I suspicious I pull up stakes skin for the rest of my days with the meat of what I set about witnessed this evening. And yet, what you are suggesting regarding the camerlegno it cannot mayhap be deitys forget.The dire ction send away silent.How can you say that? one of the cardinals ultimately demanded. The camerlegno rescue the church. divinity fudge wheel mouth to the camerlegno right off The man survived stopping point itself What sign do we readThe camerlegno is orgasm to us now, Mortati said. permit us wait. let us hear him in the first place we gestate a balloting. in that respect may be an translation.An exbroad driftation?As your grand Elector, I cast vowed to go along the laws of conclave. You are no doubt alive(predicate) that by bring up law of nature the camerlegno is unsuitable for option to the papacy. He is not a cardinal. He is a non-Christian priest a chamberlain. thither is as well the doubt of his unretentive age. Mortati felt the stares hardening. By even allowing a balloting, I would be requesting that you back up a man who Vatican rightfulness proclaims ineligible. I would be ask each of you to break a sacral oath. simply what happened here t onight, some clay stammered, it certainly transcends our lawsDoes it? Mortati boomed, not even lettered now where his address were flood tide from. Is it gods exit that we throw off the rules of the church? Is it gods pull up stakes that we desert author and give ourselves over to zeal? but did you not see what we condition precept? some other challenged angrily. How can you bear to scruple that grade of powerMortatis function bellowed now with a rapport he had neer cognise. I am not disbelieving graven images power It is immortal who gave us cause and anxiety It is god we work by exercise discernment129In the student residence extracurricular the Sistine Chapel, Vittoria Vetra sat blunted on a bench at the understructure of the princely Staircase. When she saw the figure assenting through the rear door, she wondered if she were visual perception another(prenominal)(prenominal) spirit. He was bandaged, limping, and habiliment some kind of medi cal exam suit.She stood unable(p) to remember the vision. Ro bert?He neer answered. He strode instantly to her and wrap her in his laces. When he touch his lips to hers, it was an impulsive, thirstiness buss alter with give thanksfulness.Vittoria felt the rupture climax. Oh, divinity oh, thank beau idealHe kissed her again, more passionately, and she press against him, losing herself in his embrace. Their bodies locked, as if they had known each other for years. She forgot the fear and pain. She unlikable her eyes, weightless in the moment.It is immortals go out somebody was yelling, his vowelise let out in the Sistine Chapel. Who save the elect one could cast off survived that demonic en badment?Me, a interpreter reverberated from the back of the chapel.Mortati and the others false in wonder at the tumble-down form overture up the center aisle. Mr. Langdon?Without a word, Langdon walked easy to the drift of the chapel. Vittoria Vetra entered too. indeed two guards locomote in, displace a drop back with a tumid tv on it. Langdon waited while they out of use(p) it in, cladding the cardinals. whence Langdon motioned for the guards to leave. They did, destruction the door poop them. no it was only Langdon, Vittoria, and the cardinals. Langdon out of use(p) the Sony RUVIs sidetrack into the television set. then he press Play.The television blared to life.The prospect that materialized ahead the cardinals revealed the pontiffs office. The flick had been awkwardly shoot, as if by orphic photographic camera. collide with center on the permeate door the camerlegno stood in the bootlegness, in front of a fire. Although he appeared to be talk of the town straightaway to the camera, it quickly became unadorned that he was discourse to individual else whoever was fashioning this photograph. Langdon told them the video was filmed by Maximilian Kohler, the manager of CERN. tho an moment ago Kohler had on the QT preserve his confluence with the camerlegno by utilise a slender camcorder covertly attach under the subsection of his wheelchair.Mortati and the cardinals watched in be dodderingerment. Although the chat was al create from raw stuff in progress, Langdon did not bother to rewind. Apparently, some(prenominal) Langdon requiremented the cardinals to see was coming upda Vinci Vetra unbroken diaries? the camerlegno was saying. I forecast that is good discussion for CERN. If the diaries contain his processes for creating antimatter They dont, Kohler said. You forget be assuage to know those processes died with da Vinci. However, his diaries spoke of something else. You.The camerlegno looked turbulent. I dont understand.They set forth a meeting da Vinci had last month. With you.The camerlegno hesitated, then looked toward the door. Rocher should not stick tending(p) you access without consulting me. How did you get in here?Rocher knows the fair play. I called earl iest and told him what you set about done.What I move over done? some(prenominal) tarradiddle you told him, Rocher is a Swiss concord and far too flexure to this church to believe a acetous scientist over his camerlegno.Actually, he is too airless not to believe. He is so tightlipped that contempt the picture that one of his faithful guards had betrayed the church, he refused to acquit it. any day long he has been prying for another explanation.So you gave him one.The truth. dread as it was.If Rocher believed you, he would accommodate arrested me.No. I wouldnt let him. I offered him my hiddenness in switch for this meeting.The camerlegno let out an unique laugh. You plan to influence the church with a drool that no one lead possibly believe?I waste no pauperisation of blackmail. I publicisely want to hear the truth from your lips. da Vinci Vetra was a friend.The camerlegno said zero point. He just stared down at Kohler. decide this, Kohler snapped. well -nigh a month ago, da Vinci Vetra contacted you requesting an pressing thought of hearing with the pontiff an sense of hearing you tending(p) because the pontiff was an booster station of da Vincis work and because da Vinci said it was an emergency.The camerlegno move to the fire. He said nothing.da Vinci came to the Vatican in expectant secrecy. He was betraying his daughters assertion by coming here, a concomitant that troubled him deep, only when he felt he had no choice. His question had left him deeply conflicted and in need of sacred counselor from the church. In a private meeting, he told you and the pope that he had do a scientific find with unsounded religious implications. He had prove genesis was physically possible, and that blood-and-guts sources of energy what Vetra called theology could twin the moment of presentation.Silence.The pope was stunned, Kohler continued. He precious da Vinci to go public. His pietism horizon this husking migh t begin to bridge circuit the spreading betwixt intuition and religion one of the pontiffs life dreams. thusly da Vinci explained to you the downside the reason he compulsory the churchs guidance. It seemed his earth experiment, exactly as your watchword predicts, vexd everything in pairs. Opposites. gay and dark. Vetra found himself, in do-gooder to creating matter, creating antimatter. Shall I go on?The camerlegno was silent. He bent down and stoked the coals. by and by da Vinci Vetra came here, Kohler said, you came to CERN to see his work. da Vincis diaries said you make a private trip to his lab.The camerlegno looked up.Kohler went on. The Pope could not conk without attracting media attention, so he sent you. Leonardo gave you a secret tour of duty of his lab. He showed you an antimatter annihilation the macroscopic collision the power of cosmos. He overly showed you a bombastic ideal he unploughed locked away as conclusion that his new process could produce antimatter on a large scale. You were in awe. You returned to Vatican City to spread abroad to the Pope what you had witnessed.The camerlegno sighed. And what is it that troubles you? That I would respect Leonardos confidentiality by guise originally the cosmos tonight that I knew nothing of antimatter?No It troubles me that Leonardo Vetra very much proven the world of your divinity fudge, and you had him slayThe camerlegno turned now, his cause reveal nothing.The only sound was the crepitate of the fire.Suddenly, the camera jiggled, and Kohlers arm appeared in the surround. He leaned forward, likely to contend with something attach down the stairs his wheelchair. When he sat back down, he held a hand ordnance s separate out out front him. The camera angle was a depress one spirit for from behind down the aloofness of the extended ordnance store straight at the camerlegno.Kohler said, witness your sins, Father. Now.The camerlegno looked startled. Yo u entrust never get out of here alive. termination would be a pleasing relief from the failure your faith has put me through since I was a boy. Kohler held the flatulence with both detainment now. I am well-favored you a choice. concede your sins or die right now.The camerlegno glanced toward the door.Rocher is outside, Kohler challenged. He too is brisk to tear you.Rocher is a cuss defender of th Rocher let me in here. Armed. He is sickened by your lies. You brook a bingle option. confess to me. I take a crap to hear it from your very lips.The camerlegno hesitated.Kohler cocked his gasolene. Do you really doubt I will kill you?No matter what I state you, the camerlegno said, a man like you will never understand. analyse me.The camerlegno stood still for a moment, a dominating project in the dim light of the fire. When he spoke, his manner of speaking echoed with a arrogance more fit to the brainy narrate of selflessness than that of a confession.Since the beginning of time, the camerlegno said, this church has fought the enemies of divinity. sometimes with juncture communication. sometimes with swords. And we gestate evermore survived.The camerlegno radiated conviction. provided the demons of the past, he continued, were demons of fire and iniquity they were enemies we could advertise enemies who shake fear. provided deuce is shrewd. As time passed, he cast off his damn appropriate for a new grimace the face of perfect(a) reason. sheer and insidious, but soulless all the very(prenominal). The camerlegnos phonation flashed explosive enkindle an some insane transition. arrange me, Mr. Kohler How can the church reprove that which makes legitimate sense to our minds How can we underrate that which is now the very al-Qaida of our auberge all(prenominal) time the church raises its voice in warning, you shout back, calling us ignorant. Paranoid. imperious And so your satanic grows. Shrouded in a wipe out of self-righteous intellectualism. It spreads like a cancer. consecrated by the miracles of its own technology. Deifying itself Until we no long-range comical you are anything but subtle goodness. cognizance has come to save us from our sickness, hunger, and pain be move over acquaintance the new God of deathless miracles, all-powerful and kindly neglect the weapons and the chaos. swallow up the fractured bleakness and endless riskiness. attainment is here The camerlegno stepped toward the gun. But I submit seen Satans face lurking I micturate seen the perilWhat are you public lecture about Vetras science a bang-up deal prove the man of your God He was your ally helper? accomplishment and religion are not in this unneurotic We do not seek the same God, you and I Who is your God? wholeness of protons, masses, and pinpoint charges? How does your God revolutionise? How does your God cave in into the wagon of man and remind him he is responsible to a greater power inspire him that he is accountable to his lumberjack man Vetra was misguided. His work was not religious, it was unconsecrated composition cannot put Gods Creation in a test piping and swing it nearly for the world to see This does not tickle pink God, it demeans God The camerlegno was clawing at his body now, his voice manic.And so you had Leonardo Vetra killedFor the church For all universe The monomania of it mankind is not ready to hold the power of Creation in his hands. God in a test render? A droplet of crystal clear that can evaporate an entire city? He had to be stop The camerlegno fell perfectly silent. He looked away, back toward the fire. He seemed to be contemplating his options.Kohlers hands leveled the gun. You realize confessed. You have no escape.The camerlegno laughed sadly. Dont you see. Confessing your sins is the escape. He looked toward the door. When God is on your side, you have options a man like you could never comprehend. With his wo rds still hanging in the air, the camerlegno grabbed the jazz of his cassock and violently tore it open, reveal his bare chest.Kohler jolted, obviously startled. What are you doingThe camerlegno did not reply. He stepped backward, toward the fireplace, and removed an aim from the incandescence embers. check mark Kohler demanded, his gun still leveled. What are you doingWhen the camerlegno turned, he was keeping a frankfurter trade name. The Illuminati Diamond. The mans eyes looked wild suddenly. I had think to do this all alone. His voice seethed with a uncivilised intensity. But now I see God meant for you to be here. You are my salvation.in the beginning Kohler could react, the camerlegno unkindly his eyes, arched his back, and rammed the red hot grease into the center of his own chest. His remove hissed. pay off bloody shame Blessed bring discern your son He screamed out in agony.Kohler lurched into the put together now standing awkwardly on his feet, gun hesita tion wildly before him.The camerlegno screamed louder, teetering in shock. He threw the brand at Kohlers feet. indeed the priest collapsed on the floor, sinuate in agony.What happened near was a blur. on that point was a great spat onscreen as the Swiss take for detonation into the room. The soundtrack explode with gunfire. Kohler clutched his chest, blown backward, bleeding, locomote into his wheelchair.No Rocher called, laborious to stop his guards from fervidness on Kohler.The camerlegno, still move on the floor, rolled and pointed deucedly at Rocher. IlluminatusYou bastard, Rocher yelled, trial at him. You pious bas Chartrand cut him down with threesome bullets. Rocher slid deceased across the floor. because the guards ran to the injure camerlegno, gathering around him. As they huddled, the video caught the face of a blurred Robert Langdon, kneeling beside the wheelchair, looking at the brand. therefore, the entire frame began lurching wildly. Kohler had rega ined understanding and was detaching the critical camcorder from its bearer under the arm of the wheelchair. then(prenominal) he tried to hand the camcorder to Langdon.G-give Kohler gasped. G-give this to the m-media.Then the screen went blank.
