My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu

Chapter 182 Wishful thinking

The room became eerily quiet, and you could hear a pin drop.

‘Where did this man come from? Is this old man Flanders' illegitimate son? ’

Daniel's face was calm, but his heart was in turmoil.

As a die-hard loyalist to the Pope, his purpose in the Rhine Diocese was to contain the power of Flanders.

It can be seen from the seats that there are currently nine third-level extraordinary beings on our side and seven on the other side.

Although there is a slight advantage in numbers, there is no advantage in terms of strength. If the opponent adds another general, their power will be suppressed.

He has detailed knowledge of the second-level seeds in Flanders' forces that are promising for breakthrough, and has never seen this person before.

This new third-level transcendent seemed to have suddenly popped out of the cracks in the rocks. He knew nothing about his strength or personality.

Daniel turned his head and stared at Pazzini to his left, who was the assistant in charge of intelligence.

Don't look at me, I don't know what's going on!

Pazzini was also confused and shook his head slightly.

The most shocked among everyone was Fanny Sith. She had met Crown and learned about him from Nick.

If someone told her that someone could transform from an ordinary person to a third-level transcendent within a year, she would definitely sneer at it.

Because such an improvement speed can only be achieved by the Son of God or the Origin Warlock with strong bloodline.

But now, with a living example before her, she couldn't help but not believe it.

It also made a strange emotion appear in her heart, that was jealousy.

However, Fanny quickly calmed down. Croun came from Nick's command and naturally stood in his own camp.

Daniel winked at Pazzini, who nodded slightly knowingly.

"Uh-huh"

Pazzini cleared his throat and smiled:

“It is a great blessing for the Church to have another bishop.

However, the growth trajectory of every bishop can be traced, but this parishioner is very unfamiliar. I don’t know which training period he came from? "

Generally speaking, bishops are trained by the church from an early age. In recent decades, there have been no untrained bishops in the diocese.

Those ordinary people who were promoted later had limited potential, and their promotion to second-level transcendental beings was the end of the road.

"Crown did not receive the church's upbringing. He came from the remote town of Zach.

A church was built there only three years ago. His talent was discovered by Father Nick Myzon, and he eventually became a glorious Crusader and a Flame Warrior in just a few years.

His previous experience was very simple. He lived in Zac Town since he was a child, and was initially trained by his father to be an herbalist and an excellent blacksmith."

Friend stated the basic facts and concluded:

"Crown is devout to the Lord and has outstanding talents. Now that he has advanced to become a flame warrior, he should be promoted to a bishop."

Daniel objected: "Archbishop, I'm afraid this is against the rules. Bishops are all outstanding students who have come out of the church's training camp.

A flame warrior who came out of a remote town, even though he had enough force, but lacked a lot of necessary knowledge, how could he handle the academic affairs well. "

The children trained by the church from an early age, whether they are priests or warriors, are not only required to be excellent in military force, but also must learn various related knowledge, which requires long-term learning and accumulation.

He judged from Flanders' words that Crown had been exposed to these trainings for at most three to four years, and his basic knowledge should be quite lacking.

As a bishop who came from the grassroots level, Daniel understood that children in ordinary small towns could not receive much knowledge and education at all. It would be good if they could read an ordinary book in its entirety.

Cavendi retorted: "Sir Daniel, I think you have misunderstood. There is no rule that the bishop must be a student who has graduated from the training camp.

We all know the reason why the bishops are all students in the training camp. This just proves the excellence of Crown's talent.

The arrival of the evil god is approaching day by day, and a powerful warrior is more reliable than those bishops who are only good at handling tedious religious affairs. "

"."

Both sides held their own opinions and quarreled.

Flanders banged the table with his hand and said forcefully: "According to convention, third-level members automatically become bishops. This is in line with the rules and there is no need to argue.

As a red archbishop, I still have the right to promote a third-level transcendent to become an ordinary bishop. I only need to report to the Pope.

What we need to discuss is what position he holds, not whether he can become a bishop. "

Pazzini and Daniel looked at each other, stood up, bowed slightly, and then said:

"This is your authority, Your Excellency. However, all bishops must undergo the most stringent test of soul purity."

They actually understood that since Flanders had brought the person over, it was certain that the other person would become a bishop, and the cardinal archbishop had the power to appoint qualified bishops in non-confidential positions.

The purpose of the argument is to prove to the other party that they have made concessions, so that they can take the initiative in position arrangement.

The so-called soul purity test is also just a formality, and the other party must have verified it long ago.

Friend nodded: "Getting tested is a necessary process, and we can do it now."

After saying that, he took out a red wooden box from his sleeve and put it on the table. He pushed it to Daniel: "Do me a favor and arrange the ceremony." He then pushed the kraft paper file bag to Cavendi: "Circle it, this is Crown’s resume.”

Daniel handed the box to Pazzini, who also thought the soul purity test was a formality.

The ceremony was quickly arranged, with Crown standing in the middle of the magic circle and Pazzini holding a spiritual compass in his hand.

Silver light shines in the array, the compass's diamonds shine with the bright fiery red light of life, and several crystals shine with golden light.

‘I have actually understood the true meaning of the law, damn, these people have found a treasure’

Pazzini's face darkened. Based on his experience, he judged that the new bishop was either extremely sensitive to the law of fire, or had some powerful bloodline related to fire awakening.

Otherwise, a flame warrior who has just entered the third level would not be able to show such a dazzling light of life.

The surveying compass passed through the hands of the bishops and finally returned to Flanders.

The archbishop glanced at it and raised the corners of his mouth. Crown's foundation was more solid and stronger than he wanted.

When he became a bishop, the aura revealed on the measuring compass was not so dazzling.

Flanders raised his arms and smiled gently: "Bishop Crown Moya, congratulations! Please take a seat."

"Thank you to the archbishop and the bishops. It has been an honor to work with you."

Crown bowed and said to himself: "From now on, you will be proud to have worked with me."

He followed the guidance and sat next to Bishop Fanny.

Fanny opened her blue eyes wide and looked at him carefully up and down for a while before looking away. She was very curious about what kind of amazing talent the other person had.

The last time they met, the other party had just advanced to the Flame Warrior level, but within half a year, he was able to be on an equal footing with her.

At this point, the matter of Crown becoming the new bishop has been settled.

Flanders sat down and put his hands on the table:

"Everyone, now we need to arrange the priesthood for the new bishop. Bishop Daniel, can you tell me which positions he is suitable for?"

Daniel grinned, with wrinkles showing at the corners of his eyes:

"I looked at Bishop Crown's resume. Since he is so brave, he should join the combat department. The newly formed Crusaders lack an excellent general."

In the Church of the Flame Lord, the standing force is the Crusaders, which are mainly composed of flame warriors and equipped with a certain number of exorcist priests. The Holy Army of the Rhine City Diocese currently has more than 5,000 extraordinary warriors.

Next is the Heretic Inquisition Hall, which is elite and composed of people with second-level strength and above. There are only a mere 120 people in the parish.

The people who make up these troops are all trained by the church since childhood, and they are the wealth accumulated by the Rhine Diocese over the years.

After the gray fog fell, the physical fitness of ordinary people also improved somewhat, and the church formed a crusade.

Unified training of ordinary people who have missed the best training age as a reserve regiment to handle ordinary battles.

Daniel's purpose was to use the new bishop as a knife and prevent him from contacting departments involving various interests.

Fanny smiled and said: "The Crusaders don't need a bishop to lead them at all. A few second-level extraordinary people can manage them. Putting Crown there is overkill, right?"

"Except for the combat department, other departments require experience accumulation. If Bishop Crown is willing to learn from scratch, I have no objection."

Daniel said that learning from the beginning means starting from the most basic level. No matter how fast you learn, it will be difficult to get to the core within a few months.

If they don't learn it from scratch, a third-level transcendent won't understand the specific twists and turns in the department, and can easily be deceived.

After some debate, no solution was reached.

The lucrative positions have long been occupied and no one is willing to vacate them.

Flanders seemed to have thought of something, lightly patted his forehead and said:

"There's one thing I didn't list in the file. Crown is now also a senior blacksmith. How about letting him lead the forging workshop?"

When Crown met the archbishop at noon, he told his plan.

He still has a lot of room for improvement, and staying in the workshop will give him more time to improve himself.

The forging workshop is responsible for the manufacturing and maintenance of equipment and is considered a production department.

The interests involved are not small, but no bishop has direct jurisdiction. Now it is reasonable to let a third-level transcendent who is also a senior blacksmith sit in charge.

Daniel thought for a while and couldn't think of a suitable reason to refute, but he planned to let Croun invest more energy in the workshop:

"Okay. Since Bishop Crown is a senior blacksmith and an expert, he hopes to vigorously reorganize the order of the forging workshop.

Now the church needs more weapons and armor, and the productivity in the workshop needs to be further improved, especially for extraordinary equipment. We may face a serious shortage. "

Daniel stood up, took out a document and handed it to Flanders:

"The airship from the Holy See arrived today, bringing orders from His Majesty the Pope."
