Chapter 187 One Month

A month goes by in a blink of an eye.

During this period, the world situation was not peaceful.

The apocalypse is coming, and the initial turmoil is just the beginning.

Fights, conflicts, and conflicts broke out, and a series of events that followed made everyone's daily life more chaotic.

Not limited to extraordinary people, even ordinary people in the secular world will inevitably be affected by all this.

As a result, the extraordinary power that was originally hidden from the public's sight became increasingly difficult to conceal as a large number of out-of-control conflicts occurred.

Therefore, the panic and changes that broke out are rapidly changing the underlying structure.

However, at the same time, the presence of the evangelical church and the empire gradually increased.

Especially the Empire.

Chaos is often accompanied by suppression and comfort. After the apocalypse, the Holy Spirit descends one after another to prevent the situation from being completely disordered.

Compared to the Evangelical Church, the Holy Spirits from the lower world are more inclined to settle in the empire.

On the one hand, with the archangel as the emperor himself, the empire is already holier than the church.

On the other hand, when entering a church and acting as a priest, you also have to consider issues of rules and image.

After joining the empire, I had no such worries.

No matter how brutal and brutal you are in what you do, you will not attract criticism.

As a result, the power of the empire became more and more prosperous.

The changes that resulted from this were many.

The power of the empire is increasing as if doubled, and its control over the extraordinary people within its territory is also different from the past.

The increase in power has not caused imbalances. The internal official system has become increasingly clean under the attack of the Kingdom of Heaven's reduction in dimensions.

The operation of state machinery has also become more and more efficient.

The chaos caused by the apocalypse and the countless battles caused by the guardian knights have been very effectively contained.

And her bloody attitude of acting resolutely and directly committing massacres at the slightest disagreement earned the "Queen" the title of a tyrant.

In contrast, others believed that the emperor had become wiser.

As a result, his reputation was as good as ever.

The invisible belief caused by this made the real queen hidden in the dark practice much faster.

It has even begun to reborn, and is about to complete the tree of life and get rid of the constraints!

And this change is not without benefits for Andy.

The most "meaningful" thing is that the reserve members who participated in the competition for the Holy Son were so frightened that they quit en masse.

The selection of the Holy Son was advanced to the end of the year. Although this incident accelerated the progress of certain things, it also made some people's thoughts that had been dissipated come back to life again——

Andy is a dependent of Adaniel. If he wants to become the Holy Son, no one dares to compete with him.

But the church has its own rules. Even if you are a dependent, if you are not qualified enough, you cannot stand on top of others for no reason.

Although Andy had participated in the Demon King incident in York before, this incident was covered up by many parties, which greatly weakened his sense of existence and contribution, and could not be regarded as a foundation that could be discussed.

If the Holy Son is selected according to the normal six years, then he will certainly have enough time to accumulate fame.

But this matter suddenly came to such a short "distance" in advance, and it was difficult for him to do anything else.

What’s more, changes are taking place within the evangelical church as the Kingdom focuses its energies on the human world.

All kinds of corruption and darkness in the past are constantly being traced, and the overall environment is completely different from before.

Therefore, even the retinue of the Archangel cannot blatantly do things like using power to oppress others!

Therefore, there should not have been an unexpected Holy Son incident, but as the situation developed, there were some subtle changes.

But this change did not appear for long, and then quickly dissipated.

Although Archangel Adaniel holds a high and powerful position, she is not unreasonable.

If she really wants to compete fairly and defeat Andy, she won't say anything more even if she wants to.

But the emperor's side was different.

The reform of the church did not get rid of the penetration of the empire, but instead made the empire's influence deeper.

Because the current situation of the evangelical church is not just some corruption and darkness.

What's more, it's actually a large number of mediocre people occupying positions that should not be occupied by them.

Bad money chases good money, and capable people are unable to rise to the top, making the entire church look "rusty."

And this kind of person does not necessarily make mistakes. According to religious laws, there is no way to liquidate them.

It is difficult to clean up the religion internally, so it becomes a natural choice to introduce external forces and let the empire deal with these people.

Some people did not violate religious rules, but they violated imperial laws.

Some people are honest and law-abiding, but the families behind them are not clean.

Even if there is no fault at all, the empire can detain some people in the name of cooperating with the investigation. There is no limit to the detention time.

All in all, off-board moves are very useful.

Using the empire as a knife to cut the "carrion" of the church itself will cause some hidden dangers, but relatively speaking, it will bring more benefits.

After all, the world is changing so fast that there is not much time left for the Kingdom of Heaven.

Under such circumstances, the emperor's reputation within the church had reached the point where it was not discussed.

And everyone knows that Andy is the emperor's man.

If he really blocks his way, he will probably end badly...

So a very absurd phenomenon occurred.

Regarding the Holy Son, only Andy signed up to run, and everyone else withdrew!

In this way, Andy didn't need to do anything more. He just routinely participated in some fixed assessments and already passed the election.

Just waiting for the next official appointment!

This incident attracted a lot of criticism, and after the results appeared, it was reported by major newspapers one after another.

However, it didn't cause any trouble.

Because compared to the less influential Holy Son, other things that have happened in recent days are obviously more important.

This includes the election of the Pope.

Within the church system, the status of the Son is higher than that of the Pope, but that is only a higher level.

Administratively, the pope is actually irreplaceable.

Therefore, the selection of the Son can be such a "child's play", but the selection of the Pope must be cautious.

Especially in this current situation.

The senior officials of the Kingdom of Heaven don't care who the Son is, but they have never made a decision on the choice of the Pope.

This candidate must have excellent political abilities, be able to cooperate with the Kingdom of Heaven in carrying out religious reforms, be clean and honest, and must obey the words of the Kingdom of Heaven...

The vast majority of people who are qualified to run for the Pope do not meet the requirements, including the cardinal who the remnant party had great expectations for.

So this matter has been delayed.

However, relevant public opinions have continued to ferment over time and have become a hot topic of people's attention.

Another favorite, is Hell.

Hell has not been quiet this month.

With the sudden "disappearance" of the Lazy Demon King, the ambush plan had to press the pause button.

Although this was in line with the thoughts of Archangel Trafford, who was already suspicious, the subsequent development of things was beyond his control.

The Sloth Demon has disappeared, but the source of the conflict remains.

Lucifer's resurrection caused great panic among the demon kings.

Although Lucifer has not appeared yet, the apocalypse has already arrived, and the scale is terrifying!

The uneasiness caused by this is getting worse as Apocalypse's influence deepens.

As a result, something that made many people feel absurd happened.

As time passed, the remaining demon kings in hell not only failed to unite and come up with strategies to deal with the enemy.

Instead, there was an "internal conflict" and they started fighting with each other!
