In the Church of Ice and Snow, the Saint is the favored one of God and the spokesperson of the Ice and Snow Goddess. She is more of a symbol than a substance.
The person in charge of the daily affairs of the church is the Ice and Snow High Priest Esther.
At the moment when Esther was killed, it was simply unrealistic to temporarily elect a new high priest. Moreover, the goddess of ice and snow had strangely not received any oracles or revelations recently. This forced Anastasia to carry it on her weak shoulders.
Take on this important responsibility.
No one cares that she has to endure the torture of turning against her father, and no one cares whether she has the experience or ability to manage a huge church and an army of hundreds of thousands. It is natural for everyone to treat the anger they received from the emperor.
Spread it all on her.
Although ordinary believers scolded the emperor, they in turn attributed their misfortunes to the goddess of ice and snow, and then wailed and cried to the church for living resources.
With hundreds of thousands of soldiers and millions of civilians, food, clothing, housing and transportation are a huge problem.
The island of the Lisa Federation alone has been occupied by four large islands and seven small islands.
If Mark hadn't stepped forward and allowed the Twin Church to put pressure on the Wright Empire and then the Lisa Federation, Lisa might have started a fight with the Ice and Snow Church.
Anastasia had to be trapped in foreign affairs, domestic affairs and other messy affairs every day.
But compared with military power, this is actually a small problem.
The big nobles who came over relied on their wealth and soldiers to crazily demand power, not only against her, but also against Lisa's federation and even Mark's head.
These rebellious nobles ignored their own weaklings, but secretly vented their anger on the Ice and Snow Goddess's incompetence. They left the life problems of their subjects to the church, but they firmly controlled the military power.
There were even some nobles who were discouraged by the emperor's imperial army, so they thought of using military power to gain benefits, and even stole Lisa's territory to establish a country.
This kind of guy is a cancerous person, but because of her reputation, it’s hard for the Saint to deal with them.
Now Mark proposed that the nobles under the Saint should bear the curse of bad luck. Not only the Saint, but Natasha and Boris beside her must have agreed with all their limbs.
Only the saint herself retained the last bit of sobriety: "Your Excellency Destiny, I would like to ask, is there any hidden price?"
Mark's eyes flashed: "Yes. I don't have a deal with Samsara. This time the soldiers who attack Peter the Great will be Peter the Great and Samsara. If everything goes well, Peter the Great will face Samsara. If not... Your Highness the Saint, you are mine."
Accomplice."
Having said this, the three people on the Saintess' side sighed deeply.
Sure enough, this is the point!
Mark, a person who is so stingy with feathers, rarely takes the initiative to attack like this. Obviously, the previous disagreement between him and the Samsara Cult was true. Recently, the Samsara Cult must have provoked him in other places, which made him murderous.
The heart will bring trouble and lead the water to the west.
Thinking about it, Mark doesn't think highly of changes in political power in this world. Only behemoths like the Reincarnation Religion are worthy of Mark's action.
Regardless of the fact that there were only a few people present, plus one god, it would not be wrong to say that there were eight hundred minds.
The saint glanced at the dancing goddess: "Oh? So, the seemingly unrelated dance master is also an 'accomplice'?"
Barbara was stunned for a moment and smiled awkwardly but politely. If Mark hadn't explained it, she would have almost disclosed the master-slave relationship between him and her.
The saint looked at each other first, then closed her eyes and began to think.
If it were someone else, she could have delayed it by saying, "I need time to think about it."
Not for Mark.
Mark can be said to be the biggest protective umbrella of the Ice and Snow Goddess Sect today.
In large-scale god-level conflicts, it is often black and white. If the Snow Goddess Cult doesn't mess with Mark, Mark can sell them without any psychological burden.
Mark didn't even do anything. If he gave a little hint, other factions of the Orthodox Church would eat up these ice and snow 'remnants'.
Theoretically, she still has the option of bringing her followers to the Reincarnation Cult?
However, they have already had enough troubles. Is it necessary to retaliate and stab Mark with a knife? It is not certain whether the knife will be able to penetrate.
After a few seconds of silence, the saint's mind was already full of thoughts. When she opened her eyes, she smiled bitterly: "The Ice and Snow Goddess Cult has no reason to refuse!"
Strike while the iron is hot!
"If it's convenient, I'd like to get some deposit first - that's the soul connection between you and your father." Mark stretched out his hand and made a three centimeter gap between his thumb and index finger.
The words must be spoken in advance. Mark is not sure how much the Ice and Snow Goddess will still protect his saint.
Now that she had made her choice, the Saint Princess had nothing to hesitate and nodded immediately.
Mark stretched out his right hand, and in the eyes of others, he just fished it out of the air.
Not to mention the saint, even Barbara, who has a very high spiritual sense, only vaguely sensed that Mark had taken away a very obscure spiritual energy.
On the surface, Mark is taking the soul link, but in fact, he is taking the thread of fate between Bill's Imperial Guards and Anastasia.
In the vision of destiny, this is a thread of destiny that is like a thorn, and illusory swords the size of toothpicks are constantly sticking out of the thread. Let a non-destiny priest do this. In a few minutes, the thread has not been pulled out.
It has been re-injured, and when it comes to an individual, it is the misfortune of a sword and an ax.
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo-ho..." At first, Anastasia gasped, her plump breasts rising and falling rapidly. Before Natasha could ask her concerned questions, her eyes widened in surprise.
: "I... feel better somehow. Originally there was a sense of gloom pressing down on me. I always thought it was just pressure."
Mark smiled and said nothing: Nonsense! If I don’t help you take it, this otherworldly version of the Sword of Damocles will hit you.
Next to the saint, General Heng Ha looked at his master in surprise and was so excited that he was speechless.
Here, the dancing goddess took over: "Tomorrow you will submit a list."
"Yes! I will obey your will!" The three saints bowed in unison.
After the three of them left, Barbara became curious: "Mark, will it start tomorrow?"
"Of course not!" Mark smiled evilly: "I have got what I want. I think the Reincarnation Cult will find that their legion is gone."
Three days was the time when the "Dongchuang Incident" happened.
Mark sees this change in the threads of destiny.
What he wants to do now is to visit the Hall of Valor.
In the underground prison of the Hall of Valor, a group of sin priests were practicing their old profession - to seduce the captured Captain Barak with all-round sins.
Mark felt it for a while, and for some reason, he always felt that this scene was very similar to the chatty Tang Monk in "Westward Journey" who talked to the monsters and forced them to commit suicide.
Well, imagine that a group of chatty Tang Monks are bothering you. Doesn’t it sound like the whispers of ancient gods?
