There's definitely something wrong with this script.

Chapter 712 The Majesty of Theocracy

Follow the marching speed of the Holy See.

You can reach the capital directly the next day.

However, because of the problems encountered by the Solar Knights, the Holy See planned to stay in Dalton City for an extra day on the grounds that the trip was exhausting, so as to delay the escape and travel there.

However the next day.

The capital sent an emergency messenger.

Informed that Wald XVIII is dying of critical illness, and His Royal Highness Simon will be crowned with the crown in a few days, hoping to receive the blessing of the Pope of Light.

Great, another threatening letter.

If the Holy See can't keep up, the royal capital probably won't wait any longer. Instead, the crown will be crowned normally with royal etiquette, and the imperial senate will preside over the ceremony.

In that case, the new king would not be crowned by the Holy See of Light, which would probably be a signal in the eyes of those with a heart.

For ordinary people.

Maybe it's just a little thing.

But for the ambition of the Holy See to rule the mainland.

This is wantonly trampling the divine right!

Xu Shuo didn't respond yet.

The bishops of the Priesthood were already angry on the spot, with a bright aura floating around them, as if they were going to fight immediately.

According to the player's playbook process.

In fact, players don't need to care about the authority of the Holy See, they just need to win the final battle for power, but Xu Shuo still has a slot for a character card to be filled.

So he thought about the temper of His Excellency the Pope.

It seems that I can't bear it.

Can't wait anymore, this trip must go.

Although the Ice and Snow Elves once ridiculed this: the current Holy See only regards the God of Light as a tool to seize power, and has long lost the awe and belief in the gods in their hearts.

But for His Excellency the Pope, he actually sincerely admires and yearns for that God of Light who does not know whether he exists or not.

Not to mention the Pope of Light.

Any bishop really believes in it.

After all, the imprint of the sun crown in their bodies is the best proof, and this is the only miracle of the God of Light today.

But the Ice and Snow Elf said something, but it was not wrong.

That is, the majority of believers actually no longer believe in gods, they just simply enjoy the status brought by the Holy See.

This is also the reason why the Bright Holy See has countless believers, but it is difficult for bishops to be born.

Because of faith, it has begun to be bred by profit.

……

Before the sky breaks.

In the city-state of Dalton, the mighty team of the Holy See Army is ready to set off again.

Catalina disguised herself as a maidservant of the Holy See, and successfully entered the Pope's majestic and magnificent car of light for the reason of serving. For this reason, she also suffered the blank stares of several bishops.

"You humans always like these superficial forms, which are vulgar and complicated, and you have created a shackle for yourself for no reason."

Catalina looked at the team outside and said.

Xu Shuo propped his chin: "If you are envious, you can just say it. I won't laugh at you. After all, you really can't do this in the desolate place of the ice and snow elves."

Catalina: "..."

She then sneered again: "I heard that the reason why your Holy See rushed to the capital was to have a place at the coronation ceremony of a new king. But with all due respect, there is absolutely no need for this. Since you are already planning to tear Why bother to worry about these superficial forms when you start a war with shame."

Xu Shuo smiled: "I agree with you. But there are some things that you don't care about, but the world cares about, and you need to be recognized by the world."

Does the Holy See really care so much about the coronation of the new king?

Yes, I really care.

Wald XIII, who was the first to rebel, intended to trample on the theocracy of the Holy See.

Although he has failed.

But his will was conveyed by certain people and certain things, so he had the second person who trampled on the theocracy again-Wald XVIII.

If the Holy See is indifferent to Wald XVIII's provocation this time.

So how will the world view the Holy See?

It turns out that the right of theocracy is nothing more than this.

It turns out that on top of this supreme theocracy, there is a more powerful imperial power!
What the Holy See needs is not only the belief of ordinary free people, but also the recognition and support of those powerful people. Only in this way can theocracy survive!
Otherwise, the real power of faith, which has already been sharply reduced, may be like a falling domino, which will affect the whole body.

Even if this card is long-term.

But it will all come down eventually, too.

Therefore, as long as someone tried to push down the first card, the Holy See would cut off its finger without hesitation!

Until no one dares to reach out!
What the Holy See needs is the majesty of theocracy!

"So, you still have a lot to learn on this continent. Don't think that you can understand everything just by reading a textbook." Xu Shuo propped his chin and said leisurely.

"Human beings are so obsessed with power, that's why you keep fighting." Catalina snorted.

"It's as if the biggest war wasn't started by you elves."

"..."

"And there have been no wars on the mainland for more than 1000 years. The wars were all started by your pets in the Extreme Northern Mountains."

"..."

"Furthermore, this continental war was provoked again by the cooperation between you ice and snow elves and the San Valo royal family."

"........."

Hearing the last sentence, Catalina, who was choked to the point of being speechless, suddenly paused.

She protested: "Wait, this war on the mainland is obviously a dispute between your Holy See and the Empire. What does it have to do with our ice and snow elves!"

Xu Shuo lazily said, "Your sister shot first, and seriously injured the Duke of Silver in the Silver City State."

"That is also a war between your Holy See and the Empire!"

"Your sister shot first."

"The prophecy says there are only your Holy See and the Empire!"

"Your sister shot first."

"...#!"

This ice elf was so angry that it began to spread snowflakes unconsciously.

Xu Shuo waved away the chill with a smile: "Suppress your elf breath, otherwise the light imprint in your body may become hot due to the stimulation of the dawn belief."

The voice fell.

Catalina immediately calmed down.

In order to be by this guy's side, Catalina accepted the imprint of the Light Faith in humiliation after all, allowing the damned sun crown symbol to be imprinted in her body.

This is the imprint from the faith of light, and if you are not careful, you will be scalded.

Catalina stopped talking and gritted her teeth angrily.

At this moment, Xu Shuo, who was obsessed with teasing the ice and snow elves to pass the time, flashed his eyes.

He looked up to the outside of the car.

Through the armor and the veiled crown of the bright car, the line of sight covered by the crown of the sun saw the leading officer leading an army outside.

The officer wore a tightly stitched helmet, with only a slit in the eye area, and the face was completely unclear.

Xu Shuo stared straight at him, with a smile of great interest on the corner of his mouth.

Although he is a bit blind.

But also a little perspective.

It's really interesting that the contemporary king of the San Vallo Empire, Wald XVIII, actually disguised himself as an ordinary general and came to meet his bright car in person.

At this moment, they are standing in front of the Holy See army.

It was the army sent by the capital to respond.

……

　Too busy to add more.

　　I'm in so much pain!
