The position of the Holy See in the world is very precise.
It is the most influential and successful religion in the world.
But the position of the Holy See in the dark world is somewhat vague.
A force, an organization, a country.
The vague positioning makes the Holy See in the dark world extremely mysterious, but no one can deny that if the Holy See is defined as a force, the Holy See is definitely one of the most terrifying forces in the dark world.
Each super force is extremely powerful, with confirmed invincible masters, a solid foundation, mature operating mechanisms, and even ferocious soldiers. These are all important basis for judging whether a force is a super force.
But there are also strengths and weaknesses between superpowers and superpowers.
Perhaps the gap is not very big, but no matter how small the gap is, it is real.
A detailed comparison of the superpowers in today's dark world.
The Holy See may now be the only behemoth that can keep pace with the Beihai Wang Family.
This is the most powerful force in the dark world.
The one who is slightly inferior to the Holy See and Beihai Wang family should be the reclusive Lin clan.
However, the Lin Clan has always been hidden from the world, so it can be assumed that the Lin Clan does not exist.
After the Lin clan, there is Rothschild's Shadow Throne, the South American Chiang Clan, and the Polar Alliance before it collapsed.
After that, there are the Dark Knights, Fantasy World, and the Heroes Association.
Finally, there is Tiandu Purgatory, which has grown rapidly in the past three years and is strong, but its foundation is unstable and its operating mechanism is not mature enough.
Under Tiandu Purgatory, there are the first-line forces in the dark world.
Among them, the craziest and most brilliant one in recent years is the Palace of Reincarnation. The master of the Palace of Reincarnation is extremely powerful, the twelve heavenly kings are loyal, and the vicious soldiers Biluo Huangquan falls into reincarnation. The Palace of Reincarnation has become more and more perfect, but they are the most deadly.
The shortcoming is that they lack a foundation for their development.
Therefore, the current Palace of Reincarnation is like a castle in the air that looks extremely gorgeous but can collapse at any time, and cannot be counted among the ranks of superpowers.
Similar to the Palace of Reincarnation, they are extremely powerful but also have flaws. There are many front-line forces in the dark world.
For example, the four major families in Eastern Europe can all be considered members of this ranks.
The City of Sighs in Central Continent is also a front-line force.
There are even more second-rate forces below the first-line forces.
Zhongzhou Yaochi, Shushan Mountain, Shura Road.
East Island Wuji Palace, Gale Wind Sword Style, and Flowing Fire Palace.
Major killer groups and mercenary groups that can ignore national borders.
Even the Shadow Throne of Europe and the former Polar Alliance are themselves a super power formed by many first- and second-tier forces gathered together.
In addition to these major forces with transcendent status in their respective fields, the center of power of the special warfare systems of various countries is another system.
Kunlun City, Men in Black... Every country has its own special operations center.
This is the pattern of the dark world today.
There are three forces in the dark world that can be called superpowers and can also be regarded as the center of special operations.
The Throne of Shadows is the special operations center of the European Union, for complex and special reasons.
Tiandu Purgatory is the special operations center of Dongdao. This is also the result of Dongdao's compromise in the face of strong pressure.
And the last one is the Holy See.
What do you mean by the Holy See?
The Holy See can be anything.
You say the Holy See is a superpower, it is a superpower.
You say the Holy See is a religion, it is a religion.
You say the Holy See is a country, it is a country.
You said that the Holy See is the center of special warfare...
They themselves are the country, and they are also the center of the special operations.
This is the only force in the dark world with a history of more than two thousand years.
A long history means the most stable and mature mechanism, magnificent and unparalleled.
In the past five hundred years, there have been only two forces that have always stood at the pinnacle of the dark world, one is the Beihai Wang family, and the other is the Holy See.
Even Rothschild has produced two popes.
But the Holy See is still the Holy See.
This is the scariest thing about it, it is unshakable and irreplaceable!
Rothschild did not replace the Holy See.
But their family has had a pope, so they can be said to know the power of the Holy See best.
The Holy See has always been extremely mysterious.
Even other superpowers have limited knowledge.
Some responsibilities are clearly stated.
The Bishops' Conference is the spokesperson of the Holy See, it is upright and positive.
The Legion of Holy Inquisition is the most powerful armed force of the Holy See and is responsible for eliminating heretics.
The Divine Punishment Priesthood is responsible for brainwashing.
Responsibilities are clear, but very vague.
But Rothschild clearly knew the specific responsibilities within the major institutions of the Holy See.
The duty of the Divine Punishment Priesthood is not so much brainwashing as it is control.
Control and judgment.
The most comprehensive control can be achieved in many ways, and all of them are the responsibility of the Divine Punishment Priesthood.
The most important thing is that although Rothschild has left the papal position for hundreds of years, to this day, they still have chess pieces that can play an important role in various departments of the Holy See.
Prince said that the patriarch of the Yodel family, Johnson Yodel, was the Priest Hall of the Divine Punishment Priesthood.
The Yodel family is one of the traditional wealthy families of the Empire on which the sun never sets. It has a very close relationship with the royal family of the Empire on which the sun never sets. Looking at the whole of Europe, the Yodel family cannot be regarded as a first-line force, but it is much stronger than the second-rate forces. This can be said.
It is said to be one of the core components of Throne of Shadows.
Johnson Yoder is the patriarch of the Yoder family.
If his true identity is the Hall Priest of the Holy See...
Jin Tong felt that he shouldn't believe Prince's lies.
How could a person in charge of military intelligence, who may not even be considered a third-rate country in Europe, casually reveal the most important secret of the Holy See?
But Jin Tong has really heard of the name Hall Priest.
Hall.
One of the nine red-clothed priests of the Divine Punishment Priesthood, and one of the most important assistants of the Saint in controlling the Divine Punishment Priesthood. Codenamed Hallucination, he is good at disguise, lurking, and hypnosis.
In the entire Holy See, this is a very important red priest, and his status is no less than that of the well-known red archbishop in the Holy See.
Jin Tong glanced at Johnson Yoder with a vague expression.
Johnson Yoder's expression was neither panic nor disbelief. Hearing General Prince's words, his expression was only anger.
"That's enough! General Prince, you must take responsibility for every word you have said. If not, the entire Ulan Kingdom will pay the price for your stupid behavior today."
His eyes were hard and hot: "A very heavy price."
Prince laughed and said something incomprehensible: "Priest Hall, someone told me that many years ago, we had a drink by the Lengsen Lake."
Johnson sneered and said nothing, only thinking it was a bit ridiculous. He had never been to the famous Lengsen Lake in Eastern Europe.
"But looking at it now, I'm afraid there is no chance. I will miss that bottle of wine."
Prince said softly: "Your Highness Jin Tong, you can doubt my words, but you have a chance to prove it. The real patriarch Johnson was secretly assassinated by the Holy See half a year ago and replaced by the High Priest Hall. He should not have time to do it yet.
The most thorough plastic surgery, if you can lift off the mask on his face, I believe you can get enough surprises."
Johnson closed his eyes quickly, hiding all his emotions for a moment.
Then he turned around, looked at Jin Tong, and asked seriously: "Your Highness, do you believe me?"
Jin Tong was silent for a moment.
Johnson is just a half-step invincible master.
It would not be difficult for Jin Tong to verify his identity.
but now...
Jin Tong looked at Johnson.
Johnson's eyes were calm.
Erwin, another high-ranking member of the Throne of Shadows, was quietly looking at the pale Poppy.
Poppy was looking at Jin Tong, with undisguised pleading in her eyes.
Behind her, she thought of countless uneven breathing sounds.
At this moment, Jin Tong suddenly realized that from the moment Prince spoke, the entire situation was no longer under her control.
After Ulan Kingdom attacked the Shadow Throne, the murderous intent gathered in the Shadow Throne dropped to its lowest point. At this time, everyone looked at their companions with fear, fear, and suspicion.
There is a ghost inside everyone.
When this ghost is ready to move, everyone looks like a ghost to everyone else.
Jin Tong suddenly felt weak.
In his sight, Johnson's face was sincere yet false.
But at this moment, Jin Tong really didn't have the courage to do anything.
Unmask?
Or no mask?
The second result is undoubtedly the best.
But if the first outcome really occurs, the Shadow Throne tonight is destined to be completely annihilated.
The most important thing is that she has really heard of the name Hall Priest.
"Prance defies the Shadow Throne."
Jin Tong gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Kill her!"
She really didn't dare to take off the mask on Johnson's face.
She just wanted to end everything tonight.
But what she didn't know was that, given her character, she didn't expose Prince's 'lie' on the spot. In the eyes of others, this was an extremely abnormal thing in itself.
Therefore, the morale of the elites in the Throne of Shadows never gathered strength, but instead declined again.
...
A close-up of Jin Tong's facial expression is being played on the huge screen.
And on countless small screens, there are close-ups of the expressions of every middle- and high-level person in the Throne of Shadows.
The subtle expressions of each of them are clearly displayed on the screen.
In a military truck where the Ulan Army was last placed, Prince watched all this silently through the screen.
He saw panic, fear, confusion, suspicion and fear on these people's faces, as well as hatred and cruelty.
Prince laughed softly, he liked this emotion.
This was exactly the result he wanted most tonight.
"Their minds are confused."
Prince said slowly: "General Jack, you can let your army attack."
Prince was not the commander of tonight's operation.
General Jack, Prime Minister Rick's confidant, is the one, but with the arrival of Prince, Prince naturally took command here.
"Ah? Um, oh."
General Jack agreed a few times indiscriminately, but his eyes did not move away from Prince. His eyes were full of disbelief, as if it was not until tonight that he truly saw the true face of Prince, the Minister of Military Intelligence.
"minister..."
Jack hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but probe: "How did you do it?"
"What?"
Prince was slightly startled. His appearance was extremely ordinary, but he looked gentle and extremely humble.
Jack pointed at the extremely complex faces on the Shadow Throne on the screen.
Perandes smiled and said softly: "It's very simple. Let them doubt each other and be wary of each other, which will naturally weaken their combat effectiveness and reduce our losses. For example, Poppy, she is one of Jin Tong's most trusted subordinates.
But trust is sometimes cheap. I knew some things that only the two of them knew, and I casually said it, so there was a rift between them."
The corner of Jack's mouth twitched, and he had nothing to say.
The reason is very simple, but the question is, how could Prince know the secret that only Golden Eyes and Poppy know?
"Don't forget my job, I'm in the intelligence business."
Prince smiled and said.
"Does it mean, Minister, that your information has penetrated into the deepest secrets of the Holy See?"
Jack asked with a bit of laughter and tears, thinking about the High Priest Hall.
"It's a coincidence."
Prince calmed down for a while and then said calmly: "My master saw the list of heretics of the Holy See some time ago, which was produced half a year ago. The Yodel family is one of the families most opposed to the Holy See in Europe, but the list of heretics in that list
But there is no name of Patriarch Johnson, doesn’t this explain the problem?”
"this..."
Jack was stunned. He didn't expect that anyone outside the Holy See could look through the list of heretics kept by the Pope. He also didn't expect that Prince would actually have an owner.
"Minister, you..."
Jack hesitated.
"General Jack, now we can get acquainted again."
Prance smiled and stretched out his hand, and said softly: "I am Prance, the Minister of Military Intelligence of the Ulan State. I am affiliated with the Palace of Reincarnation and the chief intelligence officer for the Eastern European region of the Palace of Reincarnation."
Jack swallowed hard and finally understood everything.
All the information just now naturally came from the Palace of Reincarnation.
He remembered Plance's explanation just now.
Look through the Vatican's list of heretics.
This reason can explain many problems.
But the reason is not sufficient.
but...
These are not important to him at all.
Jack looked at Prince and said tentatively: "Attack?"
News of the mysterious deaths of former Ulan President Carlos and his family has begun to spread in Ulan.
Everyone understands the cruelty in this.
Now that Jack has been forced to participate, he knows exactly what this means tonight.
This is equivalent to another falling sun.
Victory or defeat.
A matter of life and death.
Within days of his death, Li Tianlan won the victory, and President Carlos died.
If the Throne of Shadows wins today, not only him, but also Rick, even Li Tianlan, and everyone will end up as miserable as Carlos tomorrow.
This is the battle in the dark world.
Between victory and defeat, blood, lies, and sin flow.
Jack looked at the elite faces of the Shadow Throne on the screen, and his hesitation slowly calmed down, and he even gained a little more confidence.
"What do you think?"
Prince looked at Jack with a smile, his smile was light and gentle.
Jack nodded, without hesitation, picked up the walkie-talkie and roared: "Ulan Country! Attack! Kill them all!"
Prince looked quietly at the Ulan army that suddenly began to charge. Amidst the overwhelming gunfire, he smiled softly.
There is a devil in everyone's heart.
This is especially true for forces like Throne of Shadows.
Ulan is destined to win tonight.
But it won’t be the Ulan Kingdom that swallows up the Shadow Throne in the future.
It's the shadows and devils hidden in the hearts of everyone in the Throne of Shadows.
