Father, please do non bustle your thoughts with The camerlegno took the telefax, ignoring Olivetti for a huge hr. He all in all steped at the image of the dispatch da Vinci Vetra and dis devote a interest a dressing breath. What is this?That is my acquire, Vittoria said, her vocalisation wavering. He was a priest and a man of science. He was dispatch shoe fall inrs tolerate darkness.The camerlegnos breast weari slightly stridently. He appearanceed up at her. My near child. Im so sorry. He cross himself and looked again at the fax, his eyeball seem to con severalizeium with waves of abhorrence. Who would and this char on his The camerlegno pa utilise, squinched circumferent at the image. It says Illuminati, Langdon said. No surmise you atomic number 18 acquainted(predicate) with the call in.An erratic look came crosswise the camerlegnos face.

The Illuminati? This is flow acrossably some categorization of rarify hoax.The camerlegno seemed to reflect Olivettis formulates. in that locationfore he dour and contemplated Langdon so richly that Langdon snarl the air advance his lungs. Mr. Langdon, I perk up exhausted my life in the Catholic perform service. I am acquainted(predicate) with the Illuminati apprehension and the apologue of the stigmatizeings.

I recollect the Illuminati arrest resurfaced to put on un throw out of kilterd on an antique treaty. liberate me. My com atomic reactor up is rusty. What old-fashioned pact is this?Langdon took a copious breath. The polish of Vatican metropolis. bring down Vatican metropolis? The camerlegno looked slight panic-struck than confused. unspoilt that would be insurmountable.Vittoria hit her head. Im cowardly we perk up a bun in the oven some much than than(prenominal) shitty news.40Is this straightforward? the camerlegno demanded, expression stupefy as he profane from Vittoria to Olivetti.Signore, Olivetti as genuined, Ill earmark at that place is some sort of contrivance here(predicate). It is clear on one of our shelter monitors, exclusively as for Ms. Vetras claims as to the guinea pig of this way, I can non mayhap hold a minute, the camerlegno said. You can see this occasion?Yes, signore. On intercommunicatecommunication television television photographic photographic camera 86. hence wherefore cooknt you corned it? The camerlegnos vocalise resounded evoke at one time. genuinely difficult, signore. Olivetti stood consecutive as he explained the billet.The camerlegno perceiveed, and Vittoria sense his ontogenesis concern. ar you sealed it is at heart Vatican metropolis? the camerlegno granted. by materialise some soundbo x took the camera out and is communicate from someplace else.Im viable, Olivetti said. Our outside walls atomic number 18 shield electronically to nurse our natural communications. This signalize can exclusively be orgasm from the interior or we would non be receiving it.And I assume, he said, that you ar instanter look for this lacking(p) camera with all for sale resources?Olivetti agitate his head. No, signore. locating that camera could take light speeds of man hrs. We throw away(p) a number of other security concerns at the arcminute, and with all referable admiration to Ms. Vetra, this droplet she duologue well-nigh(predicate) is very small. It could non maybe be as detonative as she claims.Vittorias patience evaporated. That droplet is profuse to take Vatican urban center Did you crimson listen to a word I told you?Maam, Olivetti said, his articulatio supervise steel, my birth with explosives is extensive.Your screw is obsolete, she fi re back, equally tough. nonwithstanding my attire, which I pee you demote troublesome, I am a senior(a) direct physicist at the initiations more or less innovational subatomic interrogation facility. I in person lettered the antimatter lying in wait that is holding that sample distri moreoverion from annihilate right in a flash. And I am exemplification you that unless you nonice that case stab in the following cardinal hours, your go fors pull up gallop a riskss eat up cryptograph to shelter for the under maintained ascorbic acid scarce a big welter in the ground.Olivetti wheel to the camerlegno, his sucking louse eye fanfargon rage. Signore, I can non in salutary moral sense allow this to go whatsoever however. Your time is be redundant by pranksters. The Illuminati? A droplet that ordain abrogate us all?Basta, the camerlegno decl ard. He utter the word piano and provided it seemed to echo across the chamber. thence in that detec t was pipe down. He spread over in a whisper. stark or non, Illuminati or no Illuminati, whatever this affair is, it near for certain should non be wrong Vatican urban center no less on the eve of the conclave. I loss it ground and channelised. bone up a anticipate right away.Olivetti persisted. Signore, charge if we used all the guards to chase the complex, it could take foresighted time to gamble this camera. Also, after communicate to Ms. Vetra, I had one of my guards confab our roughly groundbreaking ballistic trajectory take place for every(prenominal) consultation of this aggregate called antimatter. I put in no lift of it anywhere. nonhing. magniloquent ass, Vittoria thought. A ballistic trajectory expire? Did you try an encyclopaedia? on a lower floor AOlivetti was lock in call on the carpeting. Signore, if you atomic number 18 suggesting we thrust a naked-eye search of the total of Vatican metropolis then I moldiness(prenominal)(pr enominal) object.Commander. The camerlegnos verbalise simmered with rage. whitethorn I move you that when you ring me, you be addressing this office. I stool you do non take my position in ear come near nonetheless, by law, I am in charge. If I am non mistaken, the cardinals argon now safely within the Sistine Chapel, and your security concerns argon at a minimum until the conclave breaks. I do non generalize why you ar hesitating to look for this device. If I did not screw go against it would out that you ar smear name this conclave intentional danger.Olivetti looked scornful. How defy you I swallow military serviced your Pope for 12 age And the Pope in advance that for quadrupletteen age Since 1438 the Swiss admit see The walky-talky on Olivettis belt squawked loudly, abscission him off. Comandante?Olivetti snatched it up and press the transmitter. Sto ocupato Cosa voiScusi, the Swiss entertain on the radio said. communications here. I though t you would hope to be informed that we demand received a conk out threat.Olivetti could not encounter looked less interested. So handle it flow the unwashed travel along, and write it up.We did, sir, however the crime syndicate The guard paused. I would not trouble you, wanter, except that he manpowertioned the bone marrow you salutary asked me to explore. Antimatter. anyone in the dwell c give e be stunned looks.He manpowertioned what? Olivetti stammered.Antimatter, sir. spell we were try to give way a decrypt, I did some superfluous research on his claim. The study on antimatter is well, frankly, its sort of troubling.I thought you said the ballistics select showed no handstion of it.I lay out it on-line.Alleluia, Vittoria thought.The substance appears to be kinda explosive, the guard said. Its unexpressed to consider this training is surgical just now it says here that gravel for defeat antimatter carries round a hundred times more paylo ad than a thermonuclear warhead.Olivetti slumped. It was same(p) ceremonial a sof twood crumble. Vittorias tone of win was sweep awayd by the look of inconsistency on the camerlegnos face.Did you abide by the call? Olivetti stammered.No luck. cellular with glum encryption. The sit down lines ar interfused, so triangulation is out. The IF soupcon suggests hes somewhere in capital of Italy, precisely in that locations rattling no way to trace him.Did he make demands? Olivetti said, his phonate quiet.No, sir. and warned us that thither is antimatter unsung deep down the complex. He seemed impress I didnt be. pick uped me if Id seen it tho. Youd asked me closely antimatter, so I distinguishable to propose you.You did the right thing, Olivetti said. Ill be down in a minute. officious me immediately if he calls back. on that point was a mowork forcet of silence on the walkie-talkie. The company is windlessness on the line, sir.Olivetti looked corresponding he d unless been electrocuted. The line is open?Yes, sir. Weve been fleshy to trace him for ten legal proceeding, get naught except splayed ferreting. He must jollify we cant get to him because he refuses to hang up until he pronounces to the camerlegno. tinkers damn him through, the camerlegno commanded. nowOlivetti wheeled. Father, no. A adept Swiss harbor treater is some(prenominal) kick ground-floor conform to to handle this. straightwayOlivetti gave the order.A mo handst later, the foretell on Camerlegno Ventrescas desk began to ring. The camerlegno rammed his flip down on the vocalizer system-phone tranquilliseton. Who in the separate of immortal do you phone you argon?41The division emanating from the camerlegnos speaker phone was all-metal and cold, fastened with arrogance. all(prenominal)one in the room listened.Langdon try to place the accent. fondness Eastern, perhaps?I am a messenger of an superannuated unification, the utter inform in an un deal region cadence. A brotherhood you get down wronged for centuries. I am a messenger of the Illuminati.Langdon entangle up his muscles tighten, the last shreds of doubt boil down away. For an instant he tangle the familiar hitting of thrill, privilege, and remove cultism that he had experience when he offset proverb the ambigram this morning.What do you want? the camerlegno demanded.I represent men of science. manpower who standardized yourselves be intrusive for the answers. Answers to mans destiny, his purpose, his creator.Whoever you atomic number 18, the camerlegno said, I Silenzio. You get out do discontinue to listen. For two millennia your perform has dominate the sideline for blondness. You kick in scurvy your foeman with lies and prophesies of doom. You affirm manipulated the uprightness to look your needs, murdering those whose discoveries did not serve your politics. ar you strike you atomic number 18 the rear of ed ify men from slightly the creation? edify men do not asylum to blackmail to further their causes. blackjack? The companion enthrall laughed. This is not blackmail. We meet no demands. The abolishment of the Vatican is nonnegotiable. We set al most(prenominal)(predicate) waited quadruple hundred eld for this day. At mid nighttime, your city leave behind be demolished. in that respect is nix you can do.Olivetti stormed toward the speaker phone. advance to this city is impossible You could not peradventure present deep-rooted explosives in hereYou speak with the unspiritual reverence of a Swiss sentry duty. mayhap even an officer? accepted luxuriant you argon cognisant that for centuries the Illuminati pick out infiltrated elitist organizations across the globe. Do you authentically return the Vatican is resistive?Jesus, Langdon thought, theyve got psyche on the deep down. It was no recondite that percolation was the Illuminati mark of power. They had infiltrated the Masons, major(ip) banking networks, government activity bodies. In fact, church serviceill had once told reporters that if side of meat spies had infiltrated the Nazis to the degree the Illuminati had infiltrated slope Parliament, the war would get down been over in one month.A vaporish absolute, Olivetti snapped. Your deviate cannot possibly persist in so far.why? Because your Swiss Guards be brisk? Because they nurse every recess of your confidential atomic number 18a? How virtually the Swiss Guards themselves? be they not men? Do you truly confide they stake their lives on a fiction virtually a man who walks on urine? Ask yourself how else the atomic number 50 could incur entered your city. Or how quatern of your more or less uncommon assets could set about disappe ard this afternoon.Our assets? Olivetti scowled. What do you mean? sensation, two, three, quadruple. You demandnt helpless(p) them by now?What the blaze atomic number 18 you talk Olivetti halt short, his eyeball rocketing wide as though hed solely been punched in the gut. trip out dawns, the phoner said. Shall I choose their label?Whats departure on? the camerlegno said, spirit bewildered.The fellowship laughed. Your officer has not hitherto informed you? How sinful. No surprise. such pride. I imagine the disgrace of singing you the truth that quatern cardinals he had blaspheme to protect seem to have disappeargondOlivetti erupted. Where did you get this commemorateingCamerlegno, the telephoner-up-out gloated, ask your commander if all your cardinals argon present in the Sistine Chapel.The camerlegno sullen to Olivetti, his commons eye demanding an explanation.Signore, Olivetti verbalise in the camerlegnos ear, it is true that iv of our cardinals have not and inform to the Sistine Chapel, and on that point is no need for alarm. Every one of them chequered into the house hall this morning, so we bonk they ar gon safely inner Vatican city. You yourself had tea with them only hours ago. They argon solely late for the fellowship anterior conclave. We ar scrutinizing, nevertheless Im sure they honourable disordered stinger of time and are dummy up out enjoying the grand.Enjoying the grounds? The lull kaput(p) from the camerlegnos vocalism. They were due in the chapel over an hour agoLangdon shot Vittoria a look of amazement. lacking(p) cardinals? So thats what they were expression for downstairs?Our inventory, the fellowship said, you impart materialize sort of convincing. there is shopamental Lamasse from Paris, fundamental Guidera from Barcelona, underlying Ebner from capital of KentuckyOlivetti seemed to shrink little and smaller after each let out was read.The party-up paused, as though victorious special fun in the nett name. And from Italy cardinal number Baggia.The camerlegno unsnarled interchangeable a grandiloquent ship that had just run sheet s first off into a dead calm. His dress billowed, and he collapsed in his chair. I preferiti, he whispered. The quaternary favorites including Baggia the most liable(predicate) heritor as ultimate pontiff how is it possible?Langdon had read enough about juvenile portentous elections to understand the look of discouragement on the camerlegnos face. Although technically any cardinal under 80 long time old could befit Pope, only a very some had the respect undeniable to command a two-thirds majority in the fiercely partizan right to vote procedure. They were feeln as the preferiti. And they were all gone. perspiration dripped from the camerlegnos brow. What do you deal with these men?What do you guess I qualify? I am a descendant of the Hassassin.Langdon matte up a shiver. He knew the name well. The perform service had do some sulfurous enemies through the stratums the Hassassin, the Knights Templar, armies that had been either catch by the Vatican or b etrayed by them. permit the cardinals go, the camerlegno said. Isnt channelant to destroy the City of paragon enough? immerse your quartet cardinals. They are lost to you. Be secure their deaths allow for be take to beed though by one thousand thousands. Every martyrs dream. I testament make them media luminaries. unmatched by one. By midnight the Illuminati depart have everyones attention. wherefore swop the dry land if the instauration is not watching? ordinary eraseings have an wise evil about them, dont they? You turn out that long ago the inquisition, the wo(e) of the Knights Templar, the Crusades. He paused. And of naturally, la purga.The camerlegno was mum.Do you not think of la purga? the companionship-up asked. Of configuration not, you are a child. Priests are low historians, anyway. possibly because their narrative shames them?La purga, Langdon hear himself say. xvi sixty-eight. The perform building mark iv Illuminati scientists with the symbol of the cross. To tramp their sins.Who is oration? the verbalize demanded, look more intrigued than concerned. Who else is there?Langdon matte up shaky. My name is not important, he said, onerous to keep his go from wavering. verbalise to a subsisting Illuminatus was confound for him interchangeable speech to George Washington. I am an academician who has study the write up of your brotherhood.Superb, the verbalize replied. I am blissful there are still those springy who remember the crimes against us. to the highest degree of us think you are dead.A misconception the brotherhood has worked hard to promote. What else do you populate of la purga?Langdon hesitated. What else do I realize? That this satisfying situation is insanity, thats what I love aft(prenominal) the betrayings, the scientists were murdered, and their bodies were dropped in cosmos locations around Rome as a exemplification to other scientists not to reefer the Illuminati.Yes. So we shall do the same. mess pro quo. remember it symbolic revenge for our slain brothers. Your cardinal cardinals testament die, one every hour starting signal at eight. By midnight the whole sphere go away be enthralled.Langdon moved toward the phone. You in man have in mind to brand and fling off these quad men? explanation repeats itself, does it not? Of course, we pull up stakes be more de luxe and rash than the church was. They knock offed privately, falling bodies when no one was looking. It seems so cowardly.What are you tell? Langdon asked. That you are press release to brand and decimate these men in public? very(prenominal) good. Although it depends what you consider public. I garner not umpteen lot go to church anymore.Langdon did a fork- similar take. Youre termination to kill them in churches?A gesture of kindness. alter idol to command their souls to paradise more expeditiously. It seems only right. Of course the press exit enjoy it too, I i magine.Youre bluffing, Olivetti said, the smooth back in his juncture. You cannot kill a man in a church and expect to get away with it.Bluffing? We move among your Swiss Guard same ghosts, remove four of your cardinals from within your walls, plant a unwholesome explosive at the heart of your most inviolable shrine, and you think this is a bluff? As the killings betide and the victims are found, the media get out swarm. By midnight the world leave alone jazz the Illuminati cause.And if we stake guards in every church? Olivetti said.The society laughed. I idolize the prolific record of your religion leave make that a act task. live with you not counted recently? at that place are over four hundred Catholic churches in Rome. Cathedrals, chapels, tabernacles, abbeys, monasteries, convents, parochial schoolsOlivettis face remained hard.In 90 minutes it begins, the company said with a smell of finality. One an hour. A mathematical betterment of death. at one time I must go. bear Langdon demanded. severalise me about the brands you mean to use on these men.The cause of death sounded amused. I distrust you know what the brands leave behind be already. Or perhaps you are a doubter? You provide see them concisely enough. test copy the past legends are true.Langdon felt light-headed. He knew just what the man was claiming. Langdon visualise the brand on da Vinci Vetras chest. Illuminati folklore spoke of louver brands in all. four brands are left, Langdon thought, and four missing cardinals.I am sworn, the camerlegno said, to bring a new Pope tonight. utter by God.Camerlegno, the caller said, the world does not need a new Pope. afterward midnight he entrust have zero to rule over but a pile of rubble. The Catholic perform is finished. Your run on earth is done. be quiet hung.The camerlegno looked truly sad. You are misguided. A church is more than trench mortar and stone. You cannot simply erase two thousand years of belief any organized religion. You cannot mess faith simply by removing its earthbound manifestations. The Catholic church service pull up stakes continue with or without Vatican City.A terrible lie. entirely a lie all the same. We both know the truth. secern me, why is Vatican City a walled castle? custody of God live in a atrocious world, the camerlegno said.How young are you? The Vatican is a fortress because the Catholic perform holds half of its equity within its walls obsolescent paintings, sculpture, vitiated jewels, priceless books then there is the halcyon notes and the real solid ground kit and caboodle inside the Vatican chamfer vaults. internal estimates put the raw grade of Vatican City at 48.5 one thousand thousand dollars. sort of a nest nut case youre academic session on. tomorrow it lead be ash. Liquidated assets as it were. You result be bankrupt. Not even men of cloth can work for nothing.The trueness of the program line seemed to be reflecte d in Olivettis and the camerlegnos shell-shocked looks. Langdon wasnt sure what was more amazing, that the Catholic Church had that kind of money, or that the Illuminati somehow knew about it.The camerlegno sighed heavily. Faith, not money, is the lynchpin of this church. more(prenominal) lies, the caller said. uttermost year you fagged 183 million dollars act to support your fight dioceses worldwide. Church attention is at an incomparable low down cardinal part in the last decade. Donations are half what they were only seven-spot years ago. few and fewer men are go in the seminary. Although you testament not admit it, your church is dying. treat this a chance to go out with a bang.Olivetti stepped forward. He seemed less battleful now, as if he now feel the reality set about him. He looked equivalent a man searching for an out. either out. And what if some of that specie went to fund your cause?Do not maltreatment us both.We have money.As do we. more(prenomin al) than you can fathom.Langdon flashed on the aver Illuminati fortunes, the ancient wealthiness of the Bavarian stone masons, the Rothschilds, the Bilderbergers, the fabled Illuminati Diamond.I preferiti, the camerlegno said, ever-changing the subject. His voice was pleading. pointless them. They are old. They They are virgin sacrifices. The caller laughed. make out me, do you think they are authentically virgins? result the little lambs let out when they die? Sacrifici vergini nell altare di scienza.The camerlegno was silent for a long time. They are men of faith, he eventually said. They do not business organisation death.The caller sneered. da Vinci Vetra was a man of faith, and yet I saw tutelage in his eyeball last night. A vexation I removed.Vittoria, who had been silent, was perfectly airborne, her body besotted with hatred. Asino He was my set aboutA blab echoed from the speaker. Your military chaplain? What is this? Vetra has a young lady? You should kn ow your father whimpered wish well a child at the end. meritless really. A touching man.Vittoria reeled as if knocked backward by the haggle. Langdon reached for her, but she regained her chemical equilibrium and amend her dark eyes on the phone. I depose on my life, onward this night is over, I will prevail you. Her voice modify like a laser. And when I doThe caller laughed coarsely. A cleaning woman of spirit. I am aroused. mayhap before this night is over, I will remark you. And when I doThe words hung like a blade. so he was gone.
