Chapter 685 691 Church and Gods

These words, Archbishop Link has never heard Pope St. Fran say before.

He knew immediately that Pope St. Fran was trying to give him some advice.

But Archbishop Link was not happy, because Pope St. Fran originally wanted to enlighten him, but unfortunately he never grasped the key, and finally let the other party speak out.

Seeing Archbishop Link's mood, Pope St. Fran said lightly: "Don't be depressed, it's not your fault that you can't understand this, but you are too strong."

"Too strong?" Archbishop Link showed a more puzzled expression.

Pope St. Fran looked at the huge light curtain that appeared in the palace.

The above shot has seen the huge Titan Pyramid again, as the blue aperture shrinks back and destroys the entire Void World No. 1, the light curtain dims, and the image disappears...

The Void World No. 1 fell into a long period of termination.

And this time it was destroyed too thoroughly, and it greatly damaged the foundation of the No. 1 Void World. It is unpredictable how long it will take to recover.

It is very possible that this once-blooming, No. 1 Void World may be completely abandoned.

Pope St. Fran withdrew his gaze, looked at Archbishop Link and said slowly: "Yes, it's too strong, your talent far exceeds mine, and it is also the highest I have ever seen in my life. Including Emperor Cromway of the Condor Empire. With Prince Simdor, and Grand Duke Mora of the Kingdom of Lorenzo, although they are amazing and talented, they are a little worse than you."

Archbishop Link listened silently. This was the first time he had heard such affirmative words from Pope St. Fran.

But Pope St. Fran shook his head and said, "Unfortunately... this kind of talent brings you not only benefits, but also drawbacks that you can't detect. It makes you invisible to your weaknesses, and it's hard to find anything. It is the limit of your ability. If you are a god, it is very good, because God has no limit, but you are just a person, an ordinary person who has not stepped into the mysterious realm. This limits your thinking and Cognitive, so...you haven't discovered what I wish you had discovered."

Archbishop Link seems to understand something.

Pope St. Fran did not continue, but returned to the topic just now: "My child, you must understand that becoming a Pope requires not only great strength and control over the power of the church, but also that you must understand that we are What is the essence of the Church of the Holy Light!"

Archbishop Link's brows furrowed, as if he had already touched a trace of truth, and suddenly raised his head to look at Pope St. Fran.

"Looks like you've realized it." Pope St. Fran said with relief.

"You mean the essence of the church! It's not the 'Holy Light' church... Am I right?" Archbishop Link said slowly: "The church is the church, and the holy light is the holy light, and they cannot be mixed together."

Pope St. Fran nodded slightly: "That's pretty much what it means. The existence of the church is our foundation. As for what we believe in, it doesn't really matter." It is not important to the gods, but in the same way, for us, the establishment of the Church of the Holy Light is also not about the Lord of the Holy Light. If we want to believe in the Holy Light, he cannot stop it. When we establish the Church, he must accept it. It's an obligation as a god. So sometimes we don't have to be so religious to God, you understand?"

Archbishop Link had a sudden realization.

He suddenly understood why Pope St. Fran didn't say these words to him before, because these almost blasphemous words, if he had told him before, with his devout beliefs, he would definitely be unbelievable, and even protested. Effect.

Only at this time, because of the destruction of Void World No. 1, his belief in the Lord of Light was fundamentally shaken, and Pope St. Fran conveyed this vital message to him.

Let Archbishop Link understand that the church and the gods of the faith are not a subordinate relationship, but a cooperative relationship. Although the gods are great, they are not so noble, and they do not need to be worshiped too religiously, especially as a person who will become a church. sect people.

If this is not realized, Archbishop Link will never be able to take over as Pope of the Church of the Holy Light.

But he still didn't understand why this happened, and looked at Pope St. Fran in confusion.

The few words just now almost shook the theological education that Archbishop Link received since he was a child.

Pope St. Fran looked at him with a smile: "Do you find it very difficult to accept? Do you feel that what you have learned before has been subverted? In fact, you don't have to do this. What I am saying to you now is incompatible with those It's not contradictory, it's just... You must understand that the things you have learned before are taught to bishops and priests, they are vassals, they are your subordinates, and you are the monarch, you will become the pope, equivalent to a country's King! Those are things that subjects need to learn, and as a ruler, a qualified king, you must know the root and essence, you understand? My child…”

"Think about it!" St. Fran said, turning around and leaving: "After thinking about it, come to me."

"Yes, teacher!" Archbishop Link replied somewhat stiffly, his eyes were a little empty, and his mind was thinking fast.

The words that Pope St. Fran said just now were like a big bell, ringing in his ear with a "dong dong", which made him think for the first time, what exactly is the church? And what is the relationship between the gods the church believes in and the church itself? This was something he had never considered before, and a lot of things he had taken for granted before, now he has to rethink...

At the same time, in the vast void.

In front of the incomparably huge void portal, several stalwart figures were suspended in the void.

In the middle of them is Gaia, Goddess of Earth with only a huge broken head left, next to a Lord of Light shrouded in pale golden light, and a beautiful goddess wearing a robe and hood , there is a circle of colored halo suspended above her head, which is the goddess of the light of wisdom.

In addition to the three of them, in a farther position, there was a figure shrouded in black mist and exuding the breath of death, that was the **** of death believed in by the Death Council.

Standing next to the God of Death was a huge figure with a metallic sheen all over his body. It was the God of Machinery who was rumored to have fallen.

At this moment, the gods behind the five forces in the original Void World No. 1 have all arrived.

Among them, the earth goddess Gaia is the initiator of this time, and is also the last remaining **** of the ancient Titans.

According to the truth, she and the new gods such as the Lord of Light and the Light of Wisdom should have an irreconcilable relationship.

But now, for the common good, they are standing together, watching the huge void portal.

Even as a great god, when facing such a huge portal composed of twenty-four void worlds and opened, he would still feel his own insignificance.

And the terrifying aura and majestic psionic energy emanating from the portal made several gods serious, which is also the basis for their cooperation with the earth goddess Gaia.

In fact, this time, in Void World No. 1, the outbreak affected several countries, and ultimately cost the billions of people and countless lives in Void World No. 1. The only purpose was to activate the ancient Titan Pyramid , open this void portal.

For these gods, no matter how much the cost and how many people die, they are not more important than their own goals.

"Everyone, you're ready, it's coming." Gaia, Goddess of the Earth, said in a deep voice, his only remaining eye staring at the inside of the portal.

As the most powerful and oldest goddess among the Titans, Gaia deeply understands what is hidden behind the Void Portal, and her mood gradually gets excited.

There is only a half-crippled head left, hiding in the dark and unseen underground. It has been many years, and what I have been waiting for is now.

Only one last step away, she can come back to life and become the great earth goddess again, instead of living like a rat in the gutter now.

In the same way, the Lord of Light, the Light of Wisdom, the God of Machinery and the God of Death all showed their expectations.

They can gather here and cooperate with the earth goddess Gaia, not because they have a good relationship with the earth goddess, nor because they sympathize with Gaia's experience, the only thing that can attract them is the heritage of the Titans. It contains unimaginable benefits, and even as a great god, he cannot refuse such a temptation.

As for the entire Void World No. 1, it is just the necessary price they paid to obtain these.

"Here! Get ready!" Gaia suddenly called out, her voice could be conveyed far away through the vibration of divine power in the void.

The voice fell, and there was a burst of amazing psionic energy fluctuations from the Void Portal, and it made a "squeaky" sound similar to metal twisting and stretching, as if the things inside the Void Portal were too huge. The super-giant Void Portal can't accommodate it yet.

The other gods were all taken aback, only Gaia seemed to have guessed that this would happen, and her eyes were still firm and indifferent.

In the next moment, there was a rumbling sound, and there was a loud crack in the sky.

A dazzling white light emerged from the huge void portal.

The white light was just a bunch at the beginning, and then it started to grow rapidly, forming a white light curtain, protruding out of the Void Portal.

The five gods who were waiting outside, immediately spread out, each occupying one side, releasing divine power from their bodies, connecting with each other in the blink of an eye, forming a pentagram, and then quickly backing their legs again, expanding the magic circle of this pentagram, Meet the white ball of light gushing out from the Void Portal.
