Chapter 870 The Black Saint and the Pure White Pope
Even Aiwass himself did not expect that the cardinals would be so decisive.
After Aiwass showed them his Sin Beast form, and after the Pure White Saint's coagulation syndrome was cured by him, Aiwass discovered that the cardinals who originally had their own opinions and differences, now responded with unusual speed.
Speed was reached.
Aiwass said that he would make a pure white contemporary pope, and all the cardinals immediately agreed; Aiwass said that he would lift the Theocracy's permanent neutrality, and all the cardinals immediately agreed; Aiwass said that he would intervene in Star Antimony's current chaotic political situation, and all the cardinals immediately agreed.
Agreed... Even Aiwass said he wanted to go out for a walk, and the cardinals completely agreed.
Agree with everything. Not even an objection or even an additional opinion.
For a moment, Aiwass wondered whether they would "pretend to agree first and discuss it later."
But the ability of the cardinals to take action was incredible: less than two hours after Aiwass convened them for a meeting, notices to all countries had been sent out.
At that time, Pure White had already put on the Holy Crown and fell into a deep sleep on the throne of the Pope; the candidate for the Eternal Saint was also activated - the current number one candidate for the Saint is called Teresa, and now she has officially obtained it.
An eternal inheritance.
There is no objection to either of these things.
Just by telling the things, they were completed immediately. It was completely different from the elves' usual style of procrastinating things for decades.
According to the rules, the holy name of the new Eternal Saint should be conferred by the Pope - after all, for thousands of years, saints have become popes, one after another. However, today, Teresa's holy name is still given by
Aiwass came to award.
The so-called holy name is what the outside world calls a saint. Once she becomes an eternal saint, it means completely breaking away from the worldly life and only acting as the Pope's agent. Therefore, the name given by her parents will no longer be used.
Instead use the name given by the pope.
The saint's name usually has a certain color, and it must be different from the color of the past two generations. The saint will usually wear clothes of this color all year round.
In this way, there can be a clear reference in any language system. After all, every language must have an accurate description and description of a certain color. For example, when people say "White Saint"
You can immediately know that it refers to Gray. Therefore, there is no need to consider the issues of translation and free translation when translating the name, let alone the ambiguity caused by duplicate names.
——From the very beginning, this was a name based on international exchanges, even cross-racial exchanges.
Aiwass didn't want to spoil this pretty good tradition by doing something special. But he was never good at naming.
The colors used in the past three generations are green, blue and white.
Aiwass thought for a moment, but found that when he thought about "naming colors", the first names that popped up in his mind were "gold powder", "quicksilver", "smoke green", "flame red", and "mint"
Names like "ice cream"...
This made him very happy.
At least the memories of my previous life haven't been taken away by that piece of shit Huan Tiansi...
In order to avoid the problem of thinking of mechanical keyboards when thinking about colors, Aiwass finally chose the black color he used when he was a cardinal and simply named it black.
——Although the black shaft is quite classic, let’s talk about it.
According to Aiwass's request, the name of Black Saint Teresa will be announced on May 5th, the Holy Day of Sand Clock. Now there must be a lot of people anxious to find Pure White to ask the Pope's opinion.
...But if they can't find pure white, they can't find it. It's good for them to dry it out at this time.
The Theocracy has been neutral for too long. I am afraid that many people have forgotten the value of the Theocracy. All they know is that "the Eternal Pope has a sixth level", but they have ignored the equally powerful cardinals and popes.
Guard.
At that time, Aiwass was temporarily acting as pope, and some people started to jump up.
In their opinion, Aiwass would definitely not be able to command those elves; and he himself could not reach the sixth level properly... So what was the difference between the Theocracy and being paralyzed at this time?
They certainly don't dare to directly oppose the Theocracy. But if they do some things that the Theocracy was not allowed to do in the first place, they can do it secretly now, and the Theocracy can't control them, right?
When the new pope takes office, the worst he can do is kneel down and apologize. Anyway, all the benefits have been taken now, and it won’t be a loss at all even if he spits it out by then...
Taking chances is always undesirable. But on the other hand, if you don’t take chances at all, it will be difficult to seize the opportunities of the times.
They became big shots because of this, so how could they be cautious about their words and actions after becoming big shots? When crises and opportunities arise again, they will still do the same thing - this is called path dependence.
In a sense, their guess was indeed good. It can even be said that they made the right bet.
Because the Theocracy did see all these things and keep them in mind, but it did not take any action. After all, Aiwass was just a human being who had mastered advanced divine arts at the time, and he was only temporary pope because of the cardinal and the
The conflict of positions between the saints...or perhaps it is because of the Ningbo disease that the pure white saint cannot get the support of all the cardinals.
The reason why Aiwass can serve as pope is definitely not because he is popular. It is because everyone does not want to choose either side and can only choose the "middle".
So it’s really not his turn to direct those things——
For example, the contradiction between the good masters and the slaves in the ancient Parthian country is becoming more and more acute. With the water sources drying up on a large scale again, the fourth water source war has already taken shape; the human body trade and slave trafficking of the goblins are also becoming more and more indiscriminate.
Cover up; the Hawkeye organization on the side of Iris began to organize transnational collective assassinations against the senior officials of the Black Hawk Principality and the Narcissus Principality who turned to the Son of the Moon...
These matters are very troublesome to deal with. They involve long-term conflicts between countries and races. There needs to be a long-term and stable implementation policy, which cannot be changed at will. Therefore, the cardinals are waiting for Chunbai to lift Ningpa and officially take office.
Process it later.
But now, this is no longer a problem.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the first thing the cardinals did was to turn over all these issues and hand them over to Aiwass for decision-making.
——The internal fighting among these cardinals is not because of the consciousness of power, but because of the struggle for the path. Transcendents who can reach the fifth level must have an extremely stable and determined heart for the path. They completely believe that
If you are right, then there must be enemies that you cannot coexist with.
They are comrades and partners. But they are also enemies - "old enemies" who can coexist peacefully and understand each other, but can never identify with each other.
However, the "Son of Si Zhu" has appeared again.
Then everyone doesn't have to argue.
——They will quarrel simply because there is no answer to this question at all.
But who could be more correct than the son of Sizhu?
Everyone watched helplessly as Aiwass transformed from a pure-blooded human to the son of Si Zhu, which means that this identity does not come from blood, but because of Si Zhu's recognition. Since everyone is a believer of Si Zhu, then Si Zhu
Zhu has made his own choice, who can say "I think Si Zhu doesn't understand the path of devotion enough"?
Anyone who dares to say this is a pure heretic and an apostate!
Now that there is a standard answer, the quarrel will subside.
The cardinals have also very smoothly accepted the change in the church's implementation policy - the world situation today is obviously completely different from when the Theocracy was established. It's just that all the popes in the past are just "candles of heaven"
"Successor", they are unwilling to let the Theocracy change in their hands... This is also caused by the blessing of Ning Amber flowing in the blood of the elves.
Of course the elves know that they are old antiques.
But who is to deny it?
That is the ancestral law! The ancestral law is immutable!
Zhu Tiansi is still watching in the sky - really watching - if his old man is unhappy, who can take the responsibility? If there is really a problem, Zhu Tiansi, Si Zhu... and the popes of all dynasties, so many gods
No one came down to entrust the dream?
Since there are no gods in dreams or descending to point out that the traditions of the past have become outdated and cannot be used, then no one can change the rules of the ancestors.
Death is not the end of this world - it is better to say that death is the beginning of eternal life. This is especially true for high-level transcendent beings, especially the elf bishops of the Theocracy. After death, everyone either goes to the Kingdom of Giant Trees,
Either go to the Amber Forest, or be rubbed by Lingbo Tiansi, or become the Si Zhu or an apostle appointed by Zhu Tiansi.
They may not necessarily think that the rules of the past were all good. But once they consider what will happen after death, no one dares to gamble on what happened during life.
——But now the situation is different.
Si Zhu personally granted the identity of a human Si Zhu's son. What does this mean?
It shows that Mr. Si Zhu also recognized it, and times have changed!
The age of elves has ended, and the age of humans has arrived - the old rules should naturally be broken.
These cardinals suddenly became active: they had long been dissatisfied with some of the old rules. The title "Son of the Candlestick" was much easier to use than the Pope's order.
The happiest among them was Cardinal Belisarius.
His way of "dedication" is closest to the concept of "justice".
He stayed in the ancient Parthian country for a long time and saw a lot of suffering in the world. However, because of the rules of the Theocracy, he was never able to help others. He had to wait for "the locals to come and beg them in person"... But such waiting was so difficult.
He sometimes falls into self-doubt.
——It is indeed easy to cross the line by intervening in the internal affairs of other countries, and it is also easy to prevent the advancement of the times, and to be trapped in the vision of the helper and unable to allow new things to be born. But if you have clearly seen something unjust, why can't you take action?
Watching misfortunes happen, watching evil people being triumphant, watching injustice spreading across the earth like fire... watching people in a state of confusion, with their upright spines broken. No one asks for help, no one dares to ask for help - is this justice?
Just watching from the sidelines, is this the contribution he can make?
And now, Aiwass has taken off his shackles——
Regarding the situation in the ancient Parthian country, Aiwass personally gave extremely clear instructions:
"If you see something that makes you unhappy, just take care of it.
"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, so I can't hand over the power of the entire Theocracy to you. If there is an unfair punishment, you have to be responsible for it; but if you believe in your own way, you can rest assured to do it.
"I will go there sooner or later. When I get there, I will see for myself whether what you do is good or evil, good or bad. But before that - there is no need to wait. Since you want to do it, go first
Do it. If you make a mistake, make up for it, and if you do a good job, keep up... Even if you make a mistake, it's better than doing nothing."
This is completely different from Zhu Tiansi's thinking of "those who make mistakes will always eliminate themselves", "the advanced will always eliminate the backward", and "just wait for civilization to change on its own".
Zhutiansi's thinking seems to be lofty, compassionate and rational. In his view, there will always be injustices in the world. And the world will always cycle forward and become better. Pain will always become people's nourishment. If the pain is cured,
, it seems to have solved the problem, but in fact it has stopped society from progressing.
Then it is better to watch and wait for society to develop on its own. All we need to do is prevent unstoppable and irreversible catastrophes.
The elves have always maintained this aloof attitude.
From time to time, a few words of warning, a few words of criticism, or you are very satisfied with their development, so you give them something good. For most elves, this is no problem...
However, for the radical Cardinal Belisarius, he only felt that his own people were too arrogant.
Should we kill the present for the sake of the future?
Can only pain bring progress?
But since the tradition was like this, he couldn't say anything. He could only wait in the desert for help from the locals.
I have to say that Aiwas's straightforward attitude is more in line with Cardinal Belisarius's wishes!
Originally he was the cardinal who was most resistant to Aiwass, a human being, becoming the pope, but now he has become Aiwass's most fanatical follower!
——This human being does things more efficiently than the elves!
——This son of Si Zhu, his level is higher than that of the Pope!
