Chapter 574: The Overly Smart Priest Schroeder
Chapter 574: The Overly Smart Priest Schroeder
No place of faith of the Lord of Storms will block the entry of the Wings of Wind.
The sealed door slammed against the wall with two bangs.
Celestia held up her Wind Spear and charged into the tall Storm Cathedral.
Behind her, in the alley that flickered in the light of the fire in the air, there was a hint of restlessness.
But soon, there was no movement again.
Although blinded by greed, the adventurers did not yet think they still had a chance.
All those things in the past were just pretending to be stupid because the Lord of Storms obviously wanted to teach High Priest Schroeder a lesson.
But although the Lord of Storms has a bad temper and holds grudges, he will not seek revenge.
But now, the one who is really in trouble is the Goddess of Darkness.
The adventurers would not gamble their lives on whether the goddess would suddenly become tolerant... What had Baron Qingfeng done to offend her and her church?
Over the years, it was obvious that the Dark Night Temple was the force that had the least affinity with Lori Montes, but they ended up causing the most trouble.
I have to disgust Baron Lowry every time.
It was because this Baron had a very good temper and ability that he was able to fight back without being at a disadvantage.
If it were them, they would probably die without knowing why they died.
If you meet a god who has a bad temper but is reasonable, you can naturally take a risk. But if... he has a bad temper and you are a reasonable god, a normal person will definitely be scared.
The Dark Night Goddess is a typical example of this. When I plot against you, you can resist, but if you dare to retaliate, you will become her mortal enemy.
Of course, on the divine level, although she is stubborn and extreme, she is not that bad.
But this is what ordinary people see.
The adventurers who dare to stand here are basically strong men above level 10, and naturally they will not act impulsively.
"Brother..." Pearl asked softly, "They are so well-behaved, what should we do?"
The neighing and cursing of horses in the storm church, the crisp sound of ping-pong bells, and the desperate shouts of "No!" all aroused Miss Hamilton's curiosity to the highest point.
She peered into the church, trying to figure out what was going on: "Who is shouting so miserably?"
"Bishop Blair!" Almes thought for a moment, "Except for him, no one else in Storm Church would come forward to help Archbishop Schroeder with his funeral.
Although this person is loyal, he really has a clear conscience. "
This is the most hateful thing about the Schroeder family.
Especially the two major factions of the High Priest and the Duke, both of them have Storm believers like Blair who are innocent, determined, and have pure faith.
Although they were raised by the Schroeder family, and many of them were even adopted since childhood, they have never been involved in anything related to the dark side.
It’s not that I don’t know everything, but… if I haven’t done it, I haven’t done it.
The Lord of Storms would not be dissatisfied with their turning a blind eye to what their benefactor did.
The world of the nobility doesn't care about this at all.
Who would care if their boss was secretly cheating people who are working for a salary?
As long as there is no problem with the company itself, it's fine.
Of course, because of those favors, these people will not completely leave them because of the decline of the Schroeder family.
Even if I pursue other careers, I will definitely take care of these two poor children.
If their character was not good enough, they would have been sent to the other group by the Schroeder family long ago.
Although the work here is dirty, there is real money to be made!
Even his strength increased rapidly.
Although High Priest Schroeder and Duke Schroeder died with their families and some loyal subordinates who were willing to follow them, most of the shadows in the darkness were scattered outside.
These people are the ones who understand the Schroeder family's methods best. They also know for sure that the two young masters must have killer weapons that can make them unable to move, so they will never retaliate against their old masters.
Logically speaking, such a dark force must be the first one that the major families would encircle and suppress... But now, the great nobles not only lack cannon fodder, but also lack ruthless people who dare to attack members of the Northern Royal Family.
Anyone from the Schroeder family definitely meets this standard.
But if they really took in this group of people, those great nobles would no longer be able to do anything to the Schroeder family... at least while these people still had value.
After these secret forces scattered, only the Schroeder orphans who could be used by the honest people in the open were left with only the honest assets.
Those that are done secretly will definitely be divided up directly.
It is still very rich, but it is no longer fatal.
Almes sighed slightly.
"Brother, don't think about it." Pearl, who knew her brother well, said quickly, "No one in our family has this ability, including you."
The Schroeder family can do this because they have the ability to train people and understand their hearts and nature. This should be the innate attribute of this family.
Even if a smart person has enough experience and observation skills, he can only do a nearly correct job at best...how is it possible to never make mistakes?
Gods, no one dares to say anything absolute!
The Schroeder family has never made a mistake in so many generations, and they were able to keep so many things secret for decades even with such a powerful god as the Storm Lord above them... Hehe~
Unless this family only has one brain in its lifetime.
"Ah..." Almes still felt regretful, "Why did he go astray?"
Pearl smiled and said, "Maybe, because my son and daughter are both useless!"
The Schroeder family does not produce heroes from generation to generation.
Under normal circumstances, that would be impossible.
Even the royal family, which has a wider range of choices, cannot guarantee this!
However, High Priest Schroeder was clearly unwilling to accept this result...if his descendants were unable to do so, he probably planned to do it himself.
Anyway, the Church of the Storm has a lot of experimental subjects.
This is also his most immoral aspect.
The people who actually did that were basically some unwilling old immortals in the Storm Church and some branches of their families.
The reason why the Storm Lord Temple did not dare to give up on him completely and had to try hard to protect him in front of the Storm Lord was because as long as High Priest Schroeder was willing, he could destroy half of the Main Temple... It was not because there were too many people involved, but because there were too many people involved.
Even in churches that don't allow marriage and childbearing, people can have many children, and some marginal positions can be passed down from generation to generation! Moreover, this god doesn't require them to adhere to a pure world.
However, apart from the gods who uphold their chastity and have certain requirements for the servants in their temples, other gods hardly care about this.
Even someone like Shar wouldn't care about the many handsome men around her believers.
To the gods who are high above, there is actually not much difference between humans and intelligent magical animals.
It is even more impossible for the gods of this world to do anything that violates objective laws.
Therefore, those who don’t want to get married and have children basically really don’t want to.
There are so many wonderful and desirable things in the world, right?
However, people who are immersed in power can easily fall into the trap of "Why should I pass on to others what I have paid so much for?"
People who can't figure things out will naturally create so-called families.
The Lord of Storms' tolerance towards his believers also allowed these people to turn the Storm Church, which was originally a gathering place for elites, into small hills.
Other churches are actually similar. The Church of the Earth has even expanded beyond the country!
The Church of the Storm at least retained some face, and at most allowed one of its own people to become the Grand Duke of Filming.
If the Northern Royal Family had not been able to withstand the repeated attacks from the Schroeder Family, the Northern Region would probably have been heading towards this future.
Of course, what is more important is that the Schroeder family’s backing in the Storm Lord Temple is not strong enough for them to use it at will.
The Northern Kingdom was founded under the personal witness of the Lord of Storms... No matter how greedy those people in the main temple are, they would not dare to do such rotten things in front of the gods.
The Lord of Storms, although he only hates evil for what he sees, when he deals with things, he doesn't care who is in front of him.
He likes to descend on the earth in the form of a storm and never uses the ground to get up. Therefore, there is a barrier between his understanding and feelings towards humans.
He would really kill someone, especially if he was caught in the act.
Therefore, the success or failure of these great priests is due to their families.
Those who can be seduced by High Priest Schroeder are basically all people who have a noble status in the family but have no ability themselves, and yet want to live a few hundred more years to continue enjoying themselves.
Only they would hate the fact that their talent is just a little bit off to the point of doing anything for it, and only they would not care about the things that the Lord of Storms strictly forbids.
Because they reached high positions not by the favor of gods, but by the doting of their own fathers.
Of course, now these people have been executed after the Schroeder family’s affairs were exposed.
But no one believed that Priest Schroeder had no leverage over him.
These people were the ones who waded through the most vicious and despicable quagmire... He and Duke Schroeder obviously did not follow suit.
Even their sons and grandchildren did not take the risk because they lacked talent.
But he must have gotten some revelation.
Otherwise, how could it be possible that the fourth generation really produced two talented people, one in literature and one in martial arts?
But this is definitely not some abnormal means, it is just the result of increasing the probability of excellent talents.
This is a research result that every family with a heritage will consider, and each family has its own set of methods.
Although there are definitely people who are jealous, but... it's not yet to the point where we have to cause trouble for them.
After all, this kind of research is generally only useful for one's own bloodline.
Almes couldn't help but laugh, "Still, too greedy.
The easiest mistake smart people make is to want to control everything in their own hands. "
