The Holy City of Reims, the Hall of Light.
By the time Philippel arrived, the rest of the Cardinals had arrived, and Pope Benedict III stood on the steps with a platinum scepter in his hand, and behind him was a huge, holy cross.
You are gathered today for a secret mission concerning the glory of the Lord, the survival of the Church, and your respective future.
Benedict III said solemnly, his slightly cloudy eyes deep and unwavering.
The Holy Avenger Melmos stepped forward and said: His Majesty the Pope, I don't know what the task is, it needs most of the cardinals to complete The injuries he sustained when Douglas was promoted to god-like have not yet healed, so he is more cautious about his mission.
Benedict III did not answer directly, but looked at the glass window near the dome of the Great Hall of Light, and the dazzling midday sun shone through the colorful glass, sprinkling colorful dreams on the ground.
Douglas's promotion to god-like not only gave the magicians confidence and made them see a bright future for arcane and magic, as long as this path is not hopeless, it will be difficult to be tempted again, but also greatly changed the situation of the whole world, changed the balance of power, and changed our estimation of the future.
Benedict III repeated the current situation in a low voice, whether we want to admit it or not, one god-like, four legendary peaks, and a number of legendary powerhouses no less than ours clearly exist there, and the Magic Council already has the strength to compete with us head-on without falling behind.
At the same time, we have to deal with heresy in the north.
Facing the invasion of the great devil of Mardimos in the endless ocean, and facing the oppression of the evil god Silver Moon in the dark mountain range, the situation is very difficult.
None of the members of the Cardinal Council spoke, for it was a clear fact that although the Lord of Hell, Mardimos, and the Northern Heresy were also the objects that the Magic Council had to be distracted by, at least the Dark Council and the Elven Court were now their allies, and their own side was almost isolated.
This seems to be the inevitable process of every ruling power as it turns from prosperity to decline, because their previous strength has left too much impression on other organizations, and they have formed personal enmities with each other that are difficult to resolve.
If there is no bold concession and alliance.
It is easy for the other forces to reach an agreement to overthrow the original ruling power before fighting each other, just like the ancient magic empire back then Benedict III's old and heavy voice echoed in the Hall of Light: Though I uphold the will of the Lord to transform the initial immortal state. and how to use the power of faith given by the Lord to condense the mysteries of divinity.
I've told you all.
You should have gained something over the years, and your strength has improved, but.
The development of arcane over the past twenty years, and the consequent expansion of the power of the Magical Council, have forced us to face up to a problem.
At this point, he paused, looking at all the members of the Cardinal Conference without emotion.
Cardinals such as St.
Mary, St.
Cartty, Philippe, and Estira bowed their heads slightly, as if avoiding the Pope's gaze, and they are responsible for the endless emergence of cults in the areas controlled by the Church in the past few years.
Benedict III retracted his gaze and continued: "According to this trend, before your strength is fundamentally improved, before the new peak number of legends catches up with the current Magic Council, and before the birth of new god-like saints, the overall strength of the Magic Council will definitely completely overwhelm us, dividing and defeating us step by step, just as the original magic empire was destroyed by us.
This is not to scare everyone with the worst possibility, you should know very well that the vast majority of mages in the Magic Council have not really digested the results of the development of arcane arts in the last twenty years, after all, the expansion of strength will lag behind the development of theory for about ten years, and after ten years, you yourself know how strong you can become.
After listening to Benedict III, Cardinal Estella asked suspiciously: Your Majesty, the situation you described is very far-sighted, and your analysis of our predicament is very clear, but the situation we are facing now is the most significant and fundamental difference from the ancient Magic Empire, that is, we have you, the lord's earthly spokesman, the most powerful god-like, and the strongest of the ancient Magic Empire back then was only the peak of legends.
The existence of god-like is a deterrent, a kind of balance, as long as the god-like is not eliminated, then it will be difficult for the force to which he belongs to be completely eliminated, because that will make the god-like no longer have scruples and destroy the enemy's foundation, therefore, the god-like that can destroy each other's forces is just the guarantee of peace, just like our fight against vampires, I think the Magic Council will definitely take this into account, maybe the current situation of confrontation across the Storm Strait will be maintained forever, but everyone will gradually eat away at other god-like forces.
Saint Katy also stood up and said: Estella is right, the gods that cannot be killed will keep the current situation alive, and most importantly, you are the strongest god-like under the Pope's crown, and you can perform divine descent spells, whether it is the Silver Moon, the Lord of Hell, or Douglas, they cannot resist, which can ensure the status of the church to the greatest extent, so that they do not dare to attack at will.
When our strength is raised, we can awaken the Lord, and under the light of the true God, all evil will be completely dissolved.
He said his expectations, as for whether or not he could awaken the God of Truth, and in what way, that was another matter.
Benedict III sighed softly: "Gods are not truly immortal, at least I have a lot of hidden dangers, if I can grasp these hidden dangers, even if I can't kill me completely, I can imprison me like I imprisoned that monster, and I who have divine descent is definitely the primary target of Douglas, Silver Moon and Mardimos, I can't rule out the possibility of them joining forces, when the time comes, how will we face it."
In the Great Hall of Light, there was no member of the Cardinal Conference to answer for a while, and the atmosphere became depressed and solidified, although the danger was still far away, but listening to His Majesty the Pope's analysis.
It seems that the worst may come sooner or later.
Your Majesty, what is the task you are going to give us, Mermos suddenly broke the silence with a voice, whether it has anything to do with the predicament ahead Benedict III slowly raised the platinum scepter, his expression solemn.
Seeing this, the members of the College of Cardinals immediately fell to their knees, drew crosses on their chests, and prayed fervently: Only the truth will remain This is the posture of announcing the oracle of the Lord The Lord sent down an oracle and told me how to solve the problem.
Benedict III's tone was full of sincere gratitude, and the reason why after using the container, there was also a phenomenon of uncontrollable and separated negative emotions.
It's because of the final impact on the god-like step.
The power of negative emotions is not equal to the power of faith.
St.
Mary subconsciously frowned and said: Unequal is all unreal spiritual power, how can it be unequal She suddenly came to her senses: Your Majesty, I am not questioning the Lord, but I hope that you will satisfy my ignorance.
Because behind the power of faith is the Heavenly Mountain.
When impacting a god-like god, the Heavenly Mountain projection will appear.
And the power of negative emotions will only condense the seven ancient demons.
How they match with Heavenly Mountain is equivalent to losing their balance, leaving hidden dangers.
Benedict III explained with a blank face.
So what is the equivalent of Felibel asked, this is their main concern.
Because they think they're going to get to this point sooner or later.

Benedict III put down the platinum scepter and bowed his head lightly: More ancient devils are needed, and they need to condense the ancient hell, and this requires your cooperation, I can't do it alone, in fact, this is completely consistent with the core of our god-like law, gathering the strength of the people, and turning the weak into the strong.
For some reason, when hearing Benedict III's words, Philippel and other members of the Cardinal thought of Lucian's thesis, and thought of the evolution of the weak observer to the strong observer His Majesty the Pope, what should we do, Saint Katy asked, this kind of thing must be asked every step clearly, after all, it involves itself, in case the attempt fails, and the ancient devil of his own control is out of control According to my suspicion, such a condensation would cause a corresponding change in the ancient hell, and then Benedict III told his arrangements one by one, without concealing it.
After carefully discerning the key points, the members of the Cardinal Order agreed with each other and left the Great Hall of Light to prepare.
When they all disappeared into the Great Hall of Light, Pope Benedict III was still standing there, staring at the door with a gloomy gaze.
As soon as Lucien, the devil of jealousy, spoke, Natasha and Sylvia, who were entangled in the bed, stood up, one stood in front with her chest up, and the other snuggled up to each other delicately and shyly.
I'm sorry, although you are very good, I still love her.
Natasha looked fearlessly at Lucien.
The corners of Lucian's mouth twitched, just because of the familiar lines, and then smiled: It's useless, if you don't even have this bit of confidence, how can I say that love trouble you to change your tricks, jealous devil.
As he spoke, Lucien was already prepared, because it was likely that there was still a demon of indulgence hidden in the shadows, and it would be more dangerous for the two to strike together.
Ha ha.
Natasha and Sylvia laughed like silver bells at the same time, which was very different from their own voices, and they were really boring men.
In the midst of laughter, their bodies disintegrated, as if they had turned into dust.
Lucien originally thought that the two ancient demons would make a move, but he didn't expect to leave so directly.
With a turn of his gaze, Lucien saw the mirror on the side of the bed, in which his figure was reflected, a black double-breasted gown, a top hat and black leather shoes, and the familiar handsome face was not a smile, but a disdainful expression.
Lucien in the mirror suddenly spoke, and sneered: Do you know that you are called arrogant now because of the strength of the legendary peak and many powerful and strange magic, so you look down on the seven ancient devils, thinking that they cannot cause danger, and you are laughing at their every move that tries to affect your emotions.
This kind of thinking of yours is the purest kind of arrogance, and arrogance is never an emotion, so I am born from your heart, let you face yourself, you can never kill me and defeat me, because I am you Step by step, it stepped out of the mirror, its black leather shoes on the brown-yellow carpet
