Not only did she miss out on a great opportunity for the church's development, she almost lost her position.

"Recently, the Evangelical Pope has been taking more actions. He has not proactively proposed any strategies or actions, but has only stood up for the opinions of the bishops. He can always accurately find the most foolish one among a bunch of opinions and agree to implement it.

I raised my objection to stopping his stupid move, and most of the bishops sided with me and rejected his decision, and a dispute arose. "

Chu Yan had anticipated this, but was a little confused about the details:

"Didn't they say that the new nobles of the kingdoms who were added to the church's upper echelons were all introduced by the Pope of Gospel? How come most of them agree with you, the Pope of Discipline?"

When asked about this, the Discipline Pope couldn't help but sneer. She explained:

"Because fools cannot be completely controlled, they can only be coerced and used. Those bishops who came from the kingdom's nobility are obviously such fools, even worse than those old stubborn people with rigid ideas."

In the eyes of the Pope of Discipline, mediocre ability is not a criterion for success.

776

The standard for measuring whether a person is a fool.

Because the evaluation of ability is multi-faceted, an excellent magician is not necessarily an excellent magic teacher, and being able to learn does not mean that one can teach others well, so ability must be evaluated in a specific field.

However, anyone who fails to recognize the current situation and cannot assess himself is definitely a fool!

This is the case with the bishops who rose from the nobility of the kingdom. They do not understand that they were put in this position by the Pope of the Gospel, and naively think that they really have a great say in many matters.

Why did these stupid bishops choose to stand on the side of the Pope of Discipline at that time?

The reason is so simple that it makes people laugh and cry - because the Gospel Pope did not accept their advice!

They felt that if they followed the Pope of Discipline and rejected the previous bishop's advice, their plan would be reconsidered and adopted.

It was just like a classroom for young children, with the kids vying to be chosen by the teacher to answer questions.

These bishops simply cannot understand their own position. They do not realize that they were promoted by the Gospel Pope and that they should accept the invisible control of the Gospel Pope and advance and retreat together with him in terms of interests.

Of course, we can’t blame these stupid bishops entirely.

For a long time, the Evangelical Pope has been in a Buddhist state. He has no ideas of his own and only accepts the suggestions of others. Over time, this situation has emerged.

“Do you understand?” After the Pope of Discipline explained this, he paused and looked at Princess Melissa.

This glance seemed to be a hint that the "idiots in the kingdom" she mentioned also included the princess.

Chu Yan had just been "framed" by Xia Nuoya and the others two days ago. Now he was suffering from paranoia and was wondering if Aunt Pope was also finding ways to scold him.

Because Chu Yan was able to leave Paradise City so easily and reach his current level, it was indeed because the Pope of Discipline helped him overcome many invisible obstacles.

The Pope of the Gospel held up the nobility of the kingdom, while the Pope of the Discipline held him up.

If he is "disobedient" and loses his sense of self, he will be like those noble bishops who oppose the Gospel Pope.

However, the Pope of Discipline just stared at the princess without glancing at him, so he should have been targeting the princess only.

Chu Yan drank a cup of tea and interrupted the eye contact between the princess and the Pope, fearing that they would suddenly slap each other.

It’s so annoying!

"Ahem... Now we know the cause of the dispute, but what happened afterwards?"

"The day after the argument, I felt a slight discomfort in my body. A week later, I confirmed that I had lost control of my strength. That was when Deloya came back."

The Pope of Discipline said no more; her point had been made clear.

After sensing that there was a big problem with the Evangelical Pope, she immediately chose to move away from the Central Diocese and head to the Tower of Babel area to get out of Nimogpi's sphere of influence.

Although she had no solid evidence to determine whether the Evangelical Pope had done this, it was impossible to confirm it slowly under the circumstances.

First move away from suspected sources of danger, then reassess the situation.

This is the safe solution.

Princess Melissa was silent for a long time, then suddenly said, "Escape."

Chu Yan quickly winked at the head maid, asking her to take Princess Melissa away. However, just as the head maid walked over, the princess raised her hand to stop her.

Princess Melissa would not blame Chu Yan for the difficulties she faced in the past, but she definitely had some opinions towards the Pope of Discipline.

Being bullied would be fine, but the Pope of Discipline also moved in so openly. No matter how calm Princess Melissa is, she would get angry.

Chu Yan was also afraid that the two of them would spark tension, so he immediately took over the conversation and forced the topic to stay on the business. He said:

"Pope of Discipline, are you doubting Pope of Gospel? Does he have the ability to cause others to lose control?"

"Yes, but to be honest, I felt that there was something wrong with him when he took office. It's just that he acted too 'indifferent to the world' afterwards, so I couldn't catch any clues about him."

Commander Deluya was also afraid of a quarrel between her boss and the princess, so she also joined the discussion and gave her own opinion:

"There aren't so many coincidences and accidents. The incidence of disorder in the Sanctuary of Discipline is the lowest, which is completely different from the chaos in the Gospel Church. It's impossible that the Pope has a problem all of a sudden."

“Is that so…” Chu Yan’s heart felt heavy as he stared in thought.

This series of symptoms of the church's out-of-control situation would not be funny if the source really came from the Evangelical Pope.

This can be said to be another point of doubt to support the question of the Gospel Pope.

However, it doesn't really matter. Chu Yan has always assumed that the Gospel Pope is a bad guy, so it doesn't matter if more doubts are discovered now.

"Then may I ask the Pope of Discipline, how do you think he turned his loss of control into a manipulable force?"

While Chu Yan was asking further questions, he also added a little more information and mentioned all the factors that could lead to the situation getting out of control.

All of this was learned from the little witch mother. The Pope of Discipline only needs to think about it accordingly.

After listening to his list, Commander De Luoya said in surprise:

“I can’t believe that the young lord has such a deep understanding of the reasons for the loss of control?”

"Not too deep. I have a group of taboo-followers around me, and I have also seen people who are out of control among the clergy. Naturally, I will think about these things. Maybe there are other things that have not been discovered yet.

777

It's possible that this could be the cause, but at this point I can only offer speculation."

The Pope of Discipline also confessed:

"I have been thinking about this matter these past few days, and I also asked De Luoya to go to the small parish to visit the clergy who had lost control at the time, but to no avail.

If I were to judge based on the reason you said, I think it should be 'losing permission to use power', and there must be something wrong with the magic or sacred art passed down by the church."

Because there are too many out-of-control patients in the church system, ranging from kingdom nobles, to grassroots clergy, to middle and high-level church elites, and now there is also a pope.

The human group is so complex that we only need to find the commonalities among them. The only similarity is that they have all learned the knowledge and skills spread by the church.

And these are relatively basic skills.

Because the kingdom's nobles can be assumed to be a bunch of good-for-nothings, they cannot learn any profound skills. However, in order to show that they are devout believers who are wholeheartedly devoted to God, they will definitely learn some basic and simple church arts to show their position.

Commander Deluya's mouth twitched, and she said:

"It is not an easy task to select these elementary skills because there are too many of them... and they have already been learned. Doesn't it mean that if the Pope of the Gospel has the idea one day, he can make anyone lose control?"

Chu Yan nodded and said helplessly:

"In theory, it is true. With this authority, he can do whatever he wants and put the power of any church believer into an unstable situation.

What we can do is to use those elementary abilities as little as possible and use more skills that are not inherited from the gods."

The knowledge and skills mastered by the church are quite vast. Given its size, it is extremely easy to "incorporate" other people's things into its own.

Princess Melissa was no longer angry at this time. Although she was also slapped, she had already vented her anger.

She joined the discussion:

"I think we don't need to worry too much about the further deterioration and spread of the disease for the time being."

Chu Yan was afraid that the Pope of Discipline would refute her with bad words, so she quickly took the initiative to speak and asked:

"Why, Princess, have you discovered anything?"

"Because the logic does not make sense, the Gospel Pope sees this series of confused reactions and wants the situation to get worse, or, he wants the church, this giant, to decline.

Then the most direct way would be to make all the believers in a large area lose control, but he didn't do that, which shows that his ability is limited."

Chu Yan wanted to say that the current symptoms of the church being out of control have already reached a "large-scale" level.

But he could understand what Princess Melissa meant. This was indeed the logic. If the Gospel Pope really wanted to do something bad, he could just make all the believers lose control and there was no need to worry about anything else.

But he didn't do it, didn't he want to?

Mostly it is impossible.

Let’s put this topic aside for now. Now we know the whereabouts of the Pope of Discipline when he left the Central Diocese.

It's time to talk about the Pope of Discipline's plans.

"Then, Pope Discipline, do you have any other plans for coming to the Babel City this time, besides guarding against the other Pope's dirty tricks and treating his loss of control?

How are you going to deal with the church system?"

If we really want to deal with it, there are two difficulties that cannot be avoided and must even be overcome.

Failure to face them is basically equivalent to ineffective treatment, or avoiding the problem.

The two difficult questions are "whether the relationship between the Evangelical Church and the Sanctuary of the Discipline will break down" and "regardless of whether there is a break up or not, in what form the Sanctuary of the Discipline will continue to operate in the future."

The Pope of Discipline did not shy away from the topic. She spoke very frankly and said:

"In terms of overall strength, the Evangelical Church is stronger than the Sanctuary of Discipline because the Evangelical Church controls its own army, and all the benefits of the early expansion of the large church system basically fell into the pocket of the Evangelical Church."

The positioning of the Sanctuary of Discipline is like an elite force, a special countermeasure organization to deal with forbidden forces and has a high degree of independence.

Although all the discipline officers who are recruited are elite members, the quantity can make up for the gap before the quality reaches a certain level.

If the church assembled all the holy knights into an army, the Sanctuary of Discipline would not be able to deal with it.

What's more, the Pope of Discipline is now unsure whether there are spies among his discipline officers, and whether the discipline officers will fail at the critical moment, causing large-scale loss of control.

Even a slight loss of control is enough to affect the ability of the Disciplinary Officer.

The second problem mentioned earlier is also rooted in the structure of the church system itself.

In the past, the Sanctuary of the Discipline did not participate in the management of the affairs of clergy and believers, and it was not as easily accessible to ordinary people as the Evangelical Church.

If the split continues in the future, does the Sanctuary of Discipline intend to transition into a new church that is no longer limited to a membership system dominated by discipline officers?

If there is no split, the Pope of Discipline has been tricked this time, and he will be at a disadvantage to the Pope of Gospel in terms of discourse power in the future. Wouldn't the Sanctuary of Discipline become a vassal institution in the future?

The Pope of Discipline continued:

"Now, I have a very contradictory point. If the Sanctuary of Discipline really breaks up, the church system will be in chaos, which will invisibly fit the Gospel Pope's

778

A certain expectation, this kind of chaotic collapse is what he wants.”

Commander Deluya added:

"But if we don't break away, the Sanctuary of Discipline will be infiltrated even more severely in the future, and will gradually become a mere formality. This is like boiling a frog in warm water."

All I can say is that no matter what kind of changes happen now, the Gospel Pope's goal can be easily achieved, and he will not lose out anyway.

This is the most troublesome part.

It seems that the only decision the Pope of Discipline can make is which situation will give him the best chance of winning, while the Pope of Gospel can achieve his expectations no matter what the method.

Chu Yan was silent and thoughtful.

The Pope of Discipline's intention to cooperate is quite obvious. It seems that I am very suitable to put forward Shanoya's plan, which can somewhat correspond to the Pope of Discipline's distress.

After problems arose in the church, breaking through the Tower of Babel and balancing the empire became the pressure that everyone had to face.

If Chu Yan could establish his own organization, he would be able to gather forces that normal organizations could hardly reach.

It is equivalent to a new force descending out of nowhere and taking on the pressure of the Tower of Babel.

The Pope of Discipline can then fight the Pope of Gospel without any worries about breaking up or fighting, so he can just go for it.

The future pattern will be divided into such a situation:

1. The church power is led by the Evangelical Pope. Most of the holy knights and other clergymen will definitely not believe that there is anything wrong with their own pope, and will only obey his orders loyally.

2. After the Pope of Discipline led his people to split off, he attracted some races of the Crystal Forest, the clergy who trusted Josephine, and the Dragon Family to deal with the madness of the Pope of Gospel together.
