Pirate Kingship

The East Coast and the power center of the church, the City of Seven Hills, the Apostolic Basilica of St. Peter.

If someone opens the spiritual vision here, he will find that not only this most important cathedral of the Creator Church, but also the entire City of Seven Hills is shrouded in strong holy light.

And in the deepest part of the holy light, there are seven layers of huge law networks hidden, with the [Holy Word Slate] in the church recording the Ten Commandments of God and Man as the center, spreading to the entire material world.

One of the foundations of the human orthodox extraordinary system [Ladder of Glory] is here, which is far from being comparable to the castrated version of the "Iron Law of Kingship" of various countries.

Moreover, although the Silver Law has long been integrated with the collective subconscious sea of ​​mankind, it does not belong to any force.

But part of the underlying management authority of the law has always been retained in the hands of the Creator Church.

This can be seen from the strength and number of extraordinary people.

There are hundreds of monasteries and convents that make up the Creator Church, countless churches and monasteries, as well as 98 cardinals in the College of Cardinals, 12 saints in the Council of God, and high-order extraordinary groups such as the Pope.

If this terrifying combination can be completely united, it will definitely not be a problem to continue to suppress the material world for another dark millennium.

Unfortunately, due to the Creator's own tendency to continue to split and the human nature of fighting for power and profit, there are more and more factions within the church.

Today, taking advantage of the Renaissance and ideological liberation movement launched by the artists of the Temple Sequence, the contradictions accumulated over the years have ushered in a big outbreak, and they can't even pretend to be on the surface.

In the deepest part of the papal complex, in a church dedicated to the traditional saint St. John, many clergy of the Holy Infant Society (Chapter 315) came and went in a hurry.

Everyone's face was tense, making the atmosphere seem more and more depressing.

Under a giant silver cross in the main hall, a man in his fifties wearing a white robe was praying silently and seemingly devoutly.

A bright halo above his head that resonates with the entire church and even the [Silver Law] shows his identity - St. John, one of the twelve saints of the Council before God.

He seems to be praying, but in fact he is coordinating churches and monasteries in various places through the projection of the law, preparing to launch a new round of offensive against Protestantism.

"Casualties are all excuses!

I don't care what method you use, within a week, a sufficient amount of "Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven" must be delivered to the Protestant parishes.

At this time, the overall situation must be given priority. Whoever cannot withstand the pressure at a critical moment is not a devout believer of the [Creator]."

"Contact the traditional states in the Holy Silver Empire in advance. If anyone dares to support Protestantism at this time, don't blame us for putting away the cross and rolling out the guns."

"Where are the people who mediate the ceasefire between the two queens of Castile? Why haven't they come up with a ceasefire agreement?

Is the throne more important or the cause of God more important?"

He holds the bottom-level authority of the [Silver Law], and every word he says causes a tsunami of applause from a large parish.

Under the collective system, this great power that transcends the country makes the kingship of various countries look particularly insignificant.

Although the twelve saints are not kings, they are derived from the original twelve disciples of the Son of God.

The Gospel of Genesis says: "But our Lord called the twelve disciples and gave them power to drive out demons and heal all kinds of diseases."

The sequence of the [Ladder of Glory] is all mortals and does not have the ability of eternal life, but the identity of "Twelve Apostles" blessed by the [Creator] has been passed down.

Each saint has a [Saint's Ring] that can be held for life, representing their identity as contemporary disciples.

The [Bishop's Ring] of an ordinary cardinal is equivalent to a fifth-level legend.

And the saint who is already a legendary clergyman can immediately be on par with the peak [King's Title] when he wears the [Saint's Ring].

At critical moments, he can also summon the church heroes in heaven who died for the Creator to help in the battle.

It is said that in the dark millennium, a secular monarchy once challenged the church, but was defeated by a saint who relied on his authority beyond a single country and won a crushing victory.

Since then, the coronation of kings and even emperors requires the recognition of the church to gain widespread recognition, and theocracy has completely overwhelmed the monarchy.

However, the name "saint" sounds noble, but it has little to do with whether a person's nature is good or bad.

There is only one criterion, that is, to bring more and more devout believers to the church.

As long as you are a legendary clergyman of the temple sequence, no matter whether you do good or evil, as long as you have achieved the standard of mind and will and greatly enhanced the power of the [Silver Law], you are qualified to inherit the authority of the saint.

Most of the saints who climbed up step by step in this environment are obviously not good people, and they would not even frown at sacrificing those devout clergymen at the bottom.

St. John assigned all the tasks, leaned back in the chair and pinched his eyebrows with some fatigue.

Perhaps his spirituality is very strong, but his body is no longer young.

The [panacea] he had been thinking about had never made any progress, and the recent series of unexpected events had inevitably exhausted him.

“It’s not just the throne war between Hastings and Castile; the sudden rise of Protestantism; but also the more critical Lunar Age and the Great Flood.

This is not the first recorded flood.

We must find the [Noah's Ark] that saved most of the world's creatures during the great flood at the end of the Paleozoic Era before the Mythological Era. It is also the most powerful mythical warship in the world.

Otherwise, when the next great flood rushes from the spiritual world, we will be the ones drowned.

After more than a thousand years of searching, it is now confirmed that [Noah's Ark] is definitely not in a corner of the Old World.

It is likely that it was brought to the center of the Echidna Triangle with the ebb tide of the Source Sea.

The biggest problem now is that we need many Lighthouse Sequence Transcendents to use their souls to illuminate the unknown area and help us find the Ark! "

Thinking of this, Saint John raised his hand and moved the law network, sending out a message.

It was like this in the rear. The low-level clergy in the front only needed to shout the holy words and fill the line with their own lives, but the saints who were strategizing in the rear had to consider more.

When to decide to use an open plot, when to use a dirty trick, and when to decide which part to die, all require careful consideration.

It was really very hard.

Soon the law network manifested, and a figure in the regent's dress appeared in front of Saint John.

He bowed slightly and saluted:

"Sir Saint John, are you looking for me?"

The person who came was the new regent of the Kingdom of Castile, [Puppet King] Louis.

After his power in the country went up a level, he continued to maintain his usual style, and was not too respectful even to a saint.

Saint John looked him up and down, and he also had to look at this collaborator who held great power in the secular world differently:

"Mr. Louis, your troubles should have been solved, right? ”

Before, [Puppet King] Louis used the [Longitude and Latitude Sextant] twice in a row in order to rob and escape.

If he cannot walk the same distance in person within three months "down to earth", he will be forced to start the one-way performance of the sun or the moon.

But the war for the throne is in a stalemate, how can he have time to go to the first circulation belt again?

So just after helping Juana to be crowned, he hurriedly sought help from St. John.

The latter was also very straightforward and used the zero-level holy relic [True Cross] preserved by the church to help him hold a redemption ceremony and transfer the side effects on his body.

Because it is said that [the Son of God] once shed blood and sacrificed himself on the cross, which is the greatest redemption. He said:

"This is my blood of the covenant, which is shed for many for the forgiveness of sins."

"If anyone brings an offering to [the Creator], he shall lay his hands on the head of the burnt offering, and the burnt offering will be accepted to atone for his sins. ”

One of the effects of the True Cross is to transfer the cost that one needs to bear to the "scapegoat". As long as the "scapegoat" is killed and sacrificed to the [Creator], the trouble can be avoided.

But the restriction is that, just like the Day of Atonement, a person only has one chance every year.

And the scapegoat cannot be an ordinary sheep. It is necessary to catch a transcendent of the same level or three innocent people of a lower level.

At the beginning, the Puppet King executed Beltran, Duke of Albuquerque, who had an affair with Queen Joana, the nephew of Bishop Fonseca, and five or six servants and seven or eight palace guards, not only to vent his anger, but also to gather enough sacrifices.

After sacrificing them, the side effects have indeed been eliminated, but when the Puppet King thought of this When he saw some "fellows", his face was obviously not very good.

Not only because he was cuckolded by a group of ant-like little people, but also because he found that there was something wrong with the body he snatched from his own brother!

He knew that Enrique was born incompetent, but he didn't know where the problem was, so he simply replaced himself with a good baby with a clockwork power.

In theory, no matter what disease it is, it will no longer be a problem.

But in practice, it was found that there was always an inexplicable phenomenon of clockwork fatigue, and it would often be scrapped after working for less than a minute.

What's more terrible is that he found that he was less and less interested in women, and gradually felt that those big and strong palace guards had some delicate features.

"Hiss! "

When he thought of this, he shuddered subconsciously.

Now there are rumors in the court that the royal power of Castile is cursed, and once a man touches it, he will suffer the fate of [incompetent].

The angry puppet king turned all the female slaves and attendants who served him into puppets.

St. John asked him if the trouble was solved?

He just wanted to say: "It's a big trouble!"

But Louis also knew that he couldn't afford to offend the saint in front of him for the time being, so he could only force a smile and said:

"Just tell me what you want, I will never let you down."

St. John didn't have the leisure to pry into the privacy of the puppet king, and got straight to the point:

"It's what I told you last time.

I need more [artificial lantern people] to do something.

Now in the Old Continent, you Castile, Hastings of the York family, and the Holy Silver Empire are all in chaos, but the colonies are calm.

Most of the Lighthouse Sequence Superhumans in the Old Continent have gone there. It is a good opportunity to take advantage of the development of the Southern Continent. "

The Puppet King immediately looked embarrassed:

"But the number you need is too large. If you arrest Lighthouse Sequence Superhumans in large numbers, I am afraid it will cause a backlash from the Lighthouse Federation.

Moreover, those pirates who were just scum and no one cared about them now have their own pirate king [Wild Hunt]. The risk of catching pirates and making puppets is much higher than before.

Especially at this time, is it really appropriate for the Kingdom of Castile and the Church to continue to make enemies at will? "

He is not completely stubborn. He was in the past and he is now.

Just one Isabella snatching the throne was enough to give him a headache, and he really didn't have that much energy to do such a bad thing that might offend multiple powerful enemies.

St. John left no doubt:

“It’s not a question of whether it’s appropriate or not, it’s something that must be done no matter what the cost.

However, there are some things we don’t have to do ourselves.

Don’t the Remites have the largest slave market? Let their slave catching team catch people, and you only need to be responsible for the post-processing.

After the Remites established their country in the Southern Continent, their immediate neighbors happened to be Barbary pirates and immigrants from the Star-Moon Empire who believed in the Holy Spirit Cult. There was no more suitable target for hunting.

If it works well, it might even be able to capture the settlements of neighboring countries.

The Council of God will return to them the [Saint Human Rights Precepts] of their ancestor, the traitor among the Twelve Apostles who betrayed the [Holy Son]. Those guys will not refuse such a good thing. "

After hearing this, the Puppet King finally breathed a sigh of relief:

"Okay, that's no problem."

After the Puppet King left, St. John sat back on the chair and resumed his praying posture, murmuring:

“Protestantism is all damned heresy, we are God’s spokesmen.

All the higher-ups in the church knew that something was wrong with the Creator, and there was no need to worry about God's reaction.

Outsiders think that this time the Protestant religion is attacking us just because of the dispute over faith, but they don’t know that the essence of this religious dispute is no different from the War of the Gods back then.

They are all fighting for anchorage and a glimmer of hope!

Before the great catastrophe comes, we must completely eliminate the Protestant ideological trend at all costs, and firmly hold the faith of the entire continent in the hands of our traditionalists.

And [Roya's Ark] is the ultimate trump card.

Once things become impossible, we who are in control of the Ark will decide who can get on the ship and who can't, controlling everyone's life and death in disguise, which is equivalent to ruling the entire world.

Time is running out, and for the sake of the overall interests of mankind, whoever dares to stand in the way will die! "

Speaking of the Ark, St. John subconsciously turned his head towards the island of Malta and glanced in the direction of the triangular gyre of the Sea of ​​Monsters:

“It was originally agreed to bring back the nautical chart of the location of Noah’s Ark to replace him, but that unruly guy has been gone for ten years and there has been no news.

Could it be that he died overseas?

In this case, the hostage would be of little use. "

Malta Abbey, the chaos is over.

Although [Mother of Creation, Lilith] is powerful, the descending power of the Blood Angel Lamia has only a trace, and the contaminated nun cannot escape the suppression of the divine realm.

Finally, she was captured by a group of armed nuns, and her body was permanently changed like her companions.

A pair of curved horns grew out of his head, and his whole body turned blood red as if he had lost his skin. He kept spitting out snake letters from his mouth.

After she was also imprisoned in the solitary room, the library could not calm down for a long time.

In just a few minutes, two companions were contaminated by forbidden knowledge. Even if Marina gave them blood, how could the others continue to roll up?

Your work belongs to the church, but your life is yours.

Sister Marina realized that this was not going to work. Even if they were all cannon fodder in the plan, they could not die so worthlessly.

It doesn't matter if they are contaminated by "angels", but being beaten to death by the fallen Familia is too wasteful and seriously affects efficiency.

After pondering for a while, he decided to change his working mode and ordered everyone:

“The underground prison is the place with the strongest defense level in the entire monastery, and is safer than the abbot’s chamber.

Now I order everyone to move the writing rooms to the underground prison to prevent accidental injuries caused by loss of control. Everyone is assigned a single room.

They all leave the prison at four o'clock in the morning, the cell door is locked, and they leave at nine o'clock in the evening. In the meantime, they eat the same level of prison food as the prisoners in the special cells.

Do you have any questions? "

Of course, the devout nuns could not object openly, so they could only agree with a grimace:

"No problem, very reasonable."

"Although we are not ascetics and paladins, we can still endure hardship."

But Byron shook his head after hearing this:

“These nuns are so full of ivory tower innocence.

When it comes to the workplace, the reality is that as long as you are willing to endure hardship, you will have endless hardships in your life. If you know how to work, you will have endless work.

And this nun is really good at it.

I have learned by myself without any teacher the essence of locking the scribe in a small dark room to code.

There is nothing but empty cells, and there is no fish to fish in. This can not only ensure the safety of personnel, but also greatly improve efficiency.

And it’s no longer 996, but 497. Even the cows and horses are crying. "

But he had no choice but to follow a group of scribes and return to the underground prison he had visited just now.

During this time, Margaret and her aunts exchanged subtle glances.

When they were in a panic, no one noticed the abnormality of the bat deliberately avoiding them, but they could see it clearly.

She vaguely sensed something, but remained silent throughout the process, not letting others notice anything unusual.

After everyone else was arranged, they came to the bottom of the dungeon, where the "Iron Mask" was.

Each person had a cell, and when it was Margaret's turn, she was right next to the "Iron Mask".

They lit up whale oil lamps and began to copy the forbidden book with sugarcane residue paper with some trepidation.

According to the diligence of the nuns, I believe that in less than a day or two, the complete version of the "Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven" will appear on Byron's [First-level Holy Relic·Key of Omniscience].

Coming from the omniscient and omnipotent Creator, it is definitely one of the most valuable knowledge in the current world.

"Sugarcane residue papermaking", an invention and holy relic related to civilization, should be the easiest way for Byron to obtain exclusive titles in terms of truth, civilization, and knowledge.

In addition, the "Gospel of Creation" says that the Holy Spirit has been guiding mortals in the world to pursue the truth, which is one aspect of the Creator, and everyone may be possessed by the Holy Spirit.

When they are combined, there may be an unexpected chemical reaction.

Knowing the current state of the [Creator], Byron is even more courageous.

If he continues to move forward step by step, the Pope will have to call him "Second Young Master" sooner or later.

Of course, protection is still necessary.

"Other people's lives and deaths are determined by fate, but my aunt and the others cannot be in trouble."

Byron got into their cell, secretly gave each of them a bite, and injected a large amount of [Elixir] into each of them.

Those traditional saints who want to become angels on earth, in order to eliminate the side effects of [Gospel of Heaven], the treasure they are striving for is on him.

I dare not say if there are too many people, but there is absolutely no problem in keeping my aunt and several aunts safe.

At the same time, part of the shielding of the [Storm Seal Ring] was lifted.

Under normal circumstances, the [Storm Seal Ring] can block all detection and prophecy. As long as Byron doesn't want, others can't indirectly lock him through his relatives.

Now that he has released some restrictions, the anchor chains on my aunt and the aunts that were connected to Byron before immediately showed their original thick appearance.

As the few relatives still alive, they also shared the terrifying anchor of Byron who could win the tug-of-war with the old gods through the anchor chain, and immediately felt certain in their hearts.

The panic when copying the taboo knowledge and the whispers in their ears disappeared immediately.

Obviously, in this world, relatives are not only weak points, but also armor!

The ladies who have suffered a lot in the past year couldn't help but tremble, and infinite surprise surged in their hearts:

"This is. Byron?!"

At the same time, the raven flapped and flew into Margaret's cell.

Considering that there was a strange "iron-faced man" next door, he used [I don't eat beef] to break the prison rules, launched [Dream Execution], and came to his aunt's dream.

Needless to say, the sensational scene.

After being hugged by Margaret and crying incoherently for a while, he had to hand her the letters sent from the underworld by his uncle, cousin and sister-in-law.

Looking at the crying and laughing expression on his aunt's face, Byron felt relieved and sad.

He vowed not to let such misfortune happen again.

At the same time, the "Iron Mask" in the luxurious cell next door took his third bath today and changed into a light gauze skirt.

He complained in his heart that after most of his extraordinary abilities were sealed, the side effects of black witchcraft were still there, and taking three baths a day was too troublesome.

And if the cell was not by the sea, there was plenty of water vapor, and he would have been out of control and degenerate after being locked up for more than ten years.

After Byron removed part of the shielding of the [Storm Seal Ring], he suddenly tilted his head, and a pair of blue eyes behind the metal mask stared straight at the wall, as if he saw the scene next door.

The bright star map when the tower sequence [Prophet] activated the future vision suddenly appeared in his pupils, and he murmured unconsciously:

"Blood, flames, scimitars, pirate flags

It is really a "fate disaster star" that will cause turmoil wherever it goes!

Although he is rich and powerful, his marriage... Well, if I get involved in any intimate relationship with him, I am afraid I will never have a peaceful day again. Whose child would be so unlucky."
