After entering the headquarters of the Church of Redemption, the emissary of the Scarlet Hand was even more surprised.
"This is … a domain?! Such a large area? "
After stepping into the headquarters of the church, the white-haired old man's expression changed again. He was surprised to see the light that shrouded the entire church, which could only be seen by Transcendents.
He had only seen this kind of domain power on a few very powerful dark monsters, and they could only use it in a small area. It was not as large as this one, which shrouded the entire headquarters.
"Domain?"
The saintess leading the team smiled, "You mean 'Holy Residence', right? This is a gift from our Lord. Wherever the church is near, there will be a holy residence effect, so that every believer will benefit! "
"Indeed … this kind of domain full of the power of light is very useful for soothing the soul and curing fatigue!"
The old man seemed to know that he had lost his composure, and he reluctantly regained his composure, "Seeing that the Church of Redemption has such great power and is worshiping a True God, I am more confident about the purpose of this trip."
"Esteemed guests, please follow me. His Holiness the Pope is waiting to receive you!"
After passing through the church, corridors, and a building full of religious atmosphere, a plump female priest with mixed characteristics of an angel and a devil was waiting there.
"This is Cardinal Liana, currently the Secretary General of the Pope!"
The saintess introduced Joseph and the others.
"This woman …"
The old man's pupils shrank.
In his life, he had seen too many women. Some were beautiful, some were pure, some were aloof, and some were proud … But now, he was almost unmoved by beauty.
What surprised him was the strength of the other party.
In his perception, the other party was like a bright torch, and the spiritual light on her body was so hot that he felt a tingling pain just by getting close to her.
Such an Transcendent was actually a priest, and not the Pope?
"Sure enough … The rumor that the Pope of the Church of Redemption has unfathomable strength should be true!"
He thought silently in his heart.
If not for her strength, how could she suppress such a group of subordinates?
"Thank you!"
Out of awe, the old man's voice became extremely polite.
Joseph did not have such a keen perception, but he felt that the woman in front of him seemed to be extremely difficult to deal with.
He followed the elder into the guest hall, and his pupils instantly shrank.
There were only three people in the living room. Bob, who had sent one of his subordinates to hit him against the wall, was also there. He looked at the person in the middle with a respectful expression.
The one in the middle looked very young and handsome, but he didn't have the slightest bit of an inexperienced temperament. On the contrary, he had a kind of deterrence that came from being in a high position.
When he saw them enter, he immediately revealed a warm smile.
"Praise you, Your Holiness. The glory belongs to the God of Redemption. He gives you the power on earth!"
According to the rules of this world, the one with the lower position had to introduce himself first. The old man immediately bowed and said: "I'm Louis, an elder of the Scarlet Hand. Behind me are Joseph and Luna."
"Welcome!"
Wu Ming nodded.
In Louis' senses, he was just an ordinary person, but Louis did not dare to underestimate him in the slightest.
Because in this situation, it could only mean that he had already sealed up his Holy Power to the point where not even a trace of it leaked out. He had reached the state of 'returning to the natural state' as described by Daoists.
"Please sit down!"
Wu Ming waved his hand and asked Louis and the other two to sit down.
"I'm very pleased to hear that you are willing to convert to the glory of my Lord!"
He said with a faint smile.
Even if they were talking about a deal, it must be hidden under the light. This was the game rule of the upper class.
"Your Holiness, you know!"
Louis unconsciously used honorifics and put himself in the position of the weak, "We aliens can only live in the dark. In modern times, we have to hide ourselves firmly, for fear of being discovered, captured, and studied … As long as the God of Redemption is willing to protect us, we are willing to offer our faith!"
"Even if you say it's unbearable, in fact, you just don't want to give up the power from the dark bloodline."
Wu Ming complained in his heart.
In fact, he was somewhat disdainful of these guys who desperately wanted to maintain the bloodline in their bodies.
For the power brought by the bloodline, they ignored the law, light, ethics, and even risked everything. It was really crazy and perverted.
However, he still said gently, "No problem. The God of Redemption treats all lives equally and will not discriminate against them! Even dark creatures can be bathed in the glory of my Lord! "
Another meaning was that he promised to use the power of the God to continue the bloodline of the dark nobles.
Anyway, for the Master God's Space, this was indeed a piece of cake.
"Thank you, Your Holiness!"
Wu Ming easily agreed, but Louis and the others were ecstatic.
After the Scarlet Ritual gradually lost its effect, they had almost used up all kinds of methods to maintain the bloodline in their bodies, almost to the point of desperation.
Now, they finally had hope.
"Your Holiness!"
This kind of guarantee from a clergyman, especially a clergyman who served the True God, was very credible.
Louis immediately came out to show his loyalty, "The Scarlet Hands currently have 100 million gold dollars of funds available in various industries. I'm willing to donate it all to the church!"
"Also, we have a lot of people and other vassal families in various places. Although they are all descendants with very thin bloodlines, they still have a certain amount of influence. If there's anything, please let me know!"
Listening to Louis' narration, Wu Ming slightly raised his eyebrows.
Although the Scarlet Hands were a bit weak, they were after all an association of psychics that had been passed down to the present, and their foundation was quite good.
…
While Wu Ming was wantonly annexing dissidents and expanding the Church, in the distant Pandora Empire, something that seemed small at the moment, but had a huge impact on the future development was happening.
Pandoen Empire.
This was a typical autocratic monarchy country. The upper class actively carried out the steam revolution to adapt to the trend of the times, thus becoming one of the three major powers. However, there were still strong remnants of feudalism, and the empire's internal contradictions were very acute.
At this time, in a bar.
"Brothers, we can't go on like this anymore!"
A burly man dressed in the uniform of a first class private seemed to have drunk too much. He drunkenly jumped onto the bar counter and began to complain loudly, "From the suppression of the rebellion in the northern part of the empire to the colonial war, our footprints have covered the Far North Wastelands, tropical deserts, oceans and islands … However, while we, the soldiers of the empire, are fighting in the outside world, have our families and friends received any benefits? No! "
"All they can bear is the rising price of rice and the depreciating currency in the country!"
"Those noble officers say that because of the existence of resistance, we have to endure the pain, but the fact is … Our factories are operating day and night, and the plantations have reaped rich profits, but these benefits have not fallen on the heads of the civilians!"
"Why is all this? Because the officials of the empire, those parasites, have devoured all the benefits! We can't go on like this, watching our brothers and sisters being devoured by the factories, watching the empire intervene in the war between the Redbud Kingdom and the Golden Oak Kingdom, but can't solve the problem of food and clothing for the civilians … We want bread, we want butter, we don't want cannons and war! "
"We want to be like the Golden Oak Kingdom, establish a parliament, and let the monarch retreat to the side of the stage!"
…
It seemed that they had drunk too much, as the other party's words became more and more intense.
Unfortunately, most of the people gathered here were frustrated soldiers. They either had no hope of promotion, hated war, or had a poor family situation. It was exactly the same as what the big man said. Coupled with the stimulation of the liquor, they roared, "We want bread and butter, we don't want war! Kill those parasites! "
"Establish the people's parliament, and let the nobles scram!"
"Arrest him!"
At this time, the door of the bar was violently pushed open, and a large number of military police rushed in. "You dare to spread words that are detrimental to the empire, this is a crime of treason!"
"Brothers, we have been silent for too long!"
The big man's hands were tied behind his back, but he still roared loudly, "Move! We have the gun barrel, why don't we stab it into the throats of the nobles? "
"Damn it, quickly gag his mouth!"
The military police were flustered and exasperated. Looking at the excited crowd in the bar, one of them tensed up and accidentally fired his gun.
Bang!
After a gunshot, there was first a dead silence in the bar, and then it fell into great chaos.
…
"Aren't we going too far by doing this?"
In a hidden corner of the bar, two people were quietly watching this scene, but the people around them seemed to ignore them.
One of the men in black said in a low voice, "With you stirring things up like this, I'm afraid there will really be a big mess!"
"This empire … is already sick!"
The person sitting in front of him said in a sorrowful tone, "That soldier was right, it is indeed time for us to change … Since he wants to shed the first drop of blood, I will fulfill his wish. But he said one thing wrong, the ones leading the revolution will be us! Because we have the power! With the technology and resources of God's Space as support, we can completely transform this country! "
"Yes … There is also the reincarnation mission where we don't know when we will die!"
His companion was obviously not as confident as him, but he added very helplessly.
