Chapter 194 The Helplessness of Reality
Just when Cassis thought everything was fine, the Dharma Master suddenly came to Heer and said:
"You have a strong divine nature. You can follow us back to the Holy City. I believe the Pope will summon you in the Holy City."
He Er looked at the Dharma Master in front of him with his calm eyes, then shook his head and said:
"No, I am the Knight of Light of the church. My mission is to protect the safety of the believers."
After hearing his answer, Fazun stood in front of him for a long time, as if waiting for him to change his mind.
But after Hel finished speaking, there was no further news. The Dharma Master finally returned to Sgerlt and the others, and then grasped the Void Chain. The next moment, ripples appeared in the space, and the two Dharma Masters disappeared here with Jamil and the other two.
Cassis looked at the place where Fa Zun disappeared, and then he sighed deeply and said:
"Knight Commander Hel, from now on, Huidun City will be handed over to you. The decree brought by the Dharma Master just now requires me to return to Kurkos immediately.
The Holy City did not appoint a new bishop this time, which means that in the future, the City of Wisdom Shield will return to the priests and assistants like other ordinary cities."
Cassis then came to the cathedral, where Father Hordos was waiting with priests and monks from other towns.
They had just seen Fazun's figure outside and knew that this was the punishment from above for Bishop Jamil.
The future fate of their Huidun Church will also be determined.
Cassis looked at the many priests and monks in front of him, and then said:
"Hodos."
Hodos, who was standing at the front, heard Cassis calling his name and took two steps forward.
"Hodos, in the name of the Bishop of the Western Territory Church, I appoint you as the priest of the Wisdom Shield Church."
After hearing this, Hodos knew the Holy City's opinion on how to deal with the matter. He bowed slightly to Cassis to express his acceptance of the appointment.
When other priests and monks heard that Hodos was appointed as the priest of the Huishi Church, they all knew that from then on the status of Huishi Church in the Holy City would be downgraded and it would no longer be a church of the bishop's assistant.
After Cassis gave Hodos some instructions, he left the City of Wisdom Shield, leaning on his staff and holding the scriptures.
Going back a little bit in time, after Jilong listened to his subordinates' report, he immediately came to the Earl's Castle.
At this time, in Count Huidun's study, the atmosphere between Count Huidun and Chen Cheng, who came to him to promote basic magic education, was already very tense.
In the past, Huidun almost always unconditionally supported the requests made by Chen Cheng, because he knew that it would benefit him and everyone.
Even though he knew that finance was a behemoth, Huidun, who also knew its benefits, unconditionally supported Chen Cheng's ideas.
However, today, he rejected what Chen Cheng said to him in a very affirmative tone.
It's not that Huidun is short-sighted. His mind is still thinking the same old way. He thinks that if he can master the practice method of controlling the extraordinary power of this world, he can then become his earl.
The reason for his refusal was the same as when Finier was angry at Chen Cheng before. He knew very well what this meant.
This almost means that he is going to openly start to be the enemy of the world. He wants to break the unchanging laws of this world and give power to ordinary people who have been oppressed.
Although Huidun believed that he had almost no oppression on his subjects, on the contrary his arrival had improved their quality of life.
But this is not just his problem. Once this loophole is opened, those powerful people who now have extraordinary power to oppress everyone will come to kill him at the first opportunity, even if he is the king's son.
"You don't have to say anything more. I can only give you one answer, which is impossible."
Huidun said in a very determined tone.
Then he looked at Chen Cheng and said earnestly:
"How could you not understand this with your brain? You should know that what you are going to do is impossible.
Even if I support you now, do you know that within a month, you, me, and the entire Wisdom Shield Territory may be slapped into dust by a peerless strongman in an instant? "
"Do you know the Thorn Flower Empire back then? It was a great empire that dominated the world.
Whether it is the orcs in the northern wilderness, the witches in the southern wilderness, or the church that now dominates the central continent, even the city of sin that does not belong to the present world, these extraordinary forces are all shrouded in the shadow of the empire.
There were countless powerful men in the empire at that time. Even the demigod-level strong men that people look up to today could only be commanded by the empire on both hands at a time.
However, even such a powerful empire, which was invincible in the world, failed in less than a month after it announced that it would popularize education on magic and other supernatural powers.
The current magic academy is the legacy of that universal education, and the Empire can only achieve this level today."
Huidun then struck while the iron was hot and said:
"And do you think that the magic currently taught in the academy is advanced magic? I tell you that it is all very basic. The real advanced magic is still only possessed by those ancient inherited families and forces."
"So what makes you think that you and I, two tiny ants, can accomplish something that even the empire cannot do?"
At this time, Huidun could be said to be open-hearted with Chen Cheng. He really cared about Chen Cheng, and from beginning to end he never thought about what he would do to Chen Cheng if something really happened to him in the future.
Even when he knew that there was something unclear between Chen Cheng and Melinda, he was not angry, because after this period of time, he also realized that he did not love Melinda.
His previous behavior towards Melinda was more of a display of incompetence as he could not resist his mother's arrangements.
However, now that he has strength and hope, he has also faced his own heart, so he no longer has that distorted idea about Melinda.
At this time, Chen Cheng remained silent, and Huidun didn't know whether he had listened to his words or not, but he still hoped that Chen Cheng could give up this idea.
Just as he said, what the Thorn Flower Empire couldn't do, it would be impossible for him to do even if he ascended the throne.
Seeing that Chen Cheng remained silent, Huidun was afraid that Chen Cheng would not be able to accept these dark things after knowing them, so he quickly pulled Chen Cheng's arm and said:
"Hey, kid, don't be so upset. I know you mean well. If this doesn't work, let's think of other ways."
When Chen Cheng heard Huidun's words, he reacted. He looked up at Huidun. Just as he was about to speak, Torre opened the door and walked in without his consent.
