Different from other churches, because they hold greater political power, the churches built by the Seven Orthodox Churches are not only places for believers to pray and attend confession on a daily basis, they are also offices and dioceses directly under the joint religious orders.
The committee's tribunes, general leaders and believers' representatives, the night watch captains of the Night Habitat, the arbitrators and judges of the Scales of Order, the technical staff of the Scourge Mission, the general-level officers of the Crimson Prayer Society... will all be there.
Day-to-day affairs are handled within the churches belonging to their respective deities. The decrees and licenses issued from these non-governmental diocesan offices have the same legal effect, or even more legal effect, because the bureaucracy of the Great Britan Kingdom has no authority to manage
It is an internal affair of the Baicheng Republic, but the churches of the Seven Righteous Gods are spread throughout the Western Continent.
Dioceses of different levels correspond to churches of different levels, and churches of different levels are equipped with personnel of different specifications. Parishes, churches and church members at all levels constitute a behemoth of a religious union, which in every country cooperates with the king, nobles, parliament or elected people.
If the political capital of the government can be described as an airtight network, then the center where all the grids and lines meet is undoubtedly the sacred and magnificent palace we see in front of us.
It is comparable in size to the Crimesa Palace, a symbol of the kingdom's traditional political power. When the well-dressed gentlemen of the House of Lords and Commons decided state affairs in the palace hall, members of the Evangelical United Council sat in the cathedral.
Important affairs of the entire Western Continent are decided in the round table hall. Except for the seven saints who are fixed, the members of this joint council are all circulating at any time and selected based on certain standards, but only based on personnel.
You can't tell the standard of his resume at all: a tribune of a remote city, an archbishop of a prosperous diocese, a scholar who believes in the final teacher, an officer who has never appeared in the eyes of the world but has made numerous military exploits, and a relative who has participated in many battles.
The meeting preferred scientists who stayed in the laboratory, or even a well-known writer who had just published a new book... Apart from the fact that they were all believers in the Seven Great Gods, they had nothing in common.
Therefore, there are often people who are unconvinced about the "fair, just and open decision-making mechanism" claimed by the joint sect, thinking that they are just better at performing and know how to hide the corrupt side under the shiny surface to deceive ignorant believers.
.The United Church has always maintained a silent attitude towards this statement, neither angry nor pursuing it. In the eyes of critics, it is even more of a sign of guilty conscience.
Only a few people know what the members who are qualified to participate in the Evangelical Joint Council have in common. There is no need to pay attention to appearances such as class, resume, place of origin or merit. Just use a simple sentence to summarize: They all
They are members of the association, and they are the core group of members.
Therefore, it is meaningless to criticize the sect for joint nepotism. If you cannot see the huge shadow looming in the fog, it proves that you have never really understood them. In fact, people who can do this, the world
There are very few on it.
…
The time is two o'clock in the morning.
The location is the Palace of Calamity in the Cathedral of the Evangelical Church of Saint Gloria in Westminster, London.
The Evangelical Cathedral of St. Glomi is nominally the only "apostolic temple" established by the religious orders in the Holy Diocese of Sigiriya, but in fact it is a concept composed of seven different churches, each corresponding to
The seven supreme gods are the Dragon Palace of the Crimson Prayer Society, the Silent Night Palace of the Dark Night, the Judgment Palace of the Holy See, the Sage Palace of the Original Sect, the Palace of the Dead of the Death Prayer Society, and the Emerald Palace of the Green Garden.
As well as the Calamity Palace of the Natural Disaster Mission. In the central area surrounded by these seven churches, there is a round table hall that is particularly simple from its name to its appearance. Once every six months, members of the Gospel Joint Council hold meetings here.
Discuss and make decisions on matters ranging from faith to politics.
Within the witch association, these two meetings are called: mid-year and end-of-year regular meetings, which are second only in importance to the witch meeting that requires more than half of the witches to attend and witness. Therefore, the matters decided may also be
It's not just as simple as it seems on the surface, it also includes at least the latest battle reports of the colonial war in the Eastern Continent, the annihilation of aliens and pseudo-cultists, the latest scientific research results of the Construct Management Bureau, and some things that are so secret that they need to be discussed behind closed doors.
A humane plan.
However, during this entire process, discussions or arguments in the round table hall often only last for a short period of time. What really requires patience is the period of time before the meeting starts, while waiting for the participants to arrive in Lundweiting City one after another.
Usually the meeting is notified two months before the start of the meeting, but depending on various factors such as distance, position, and the urgency of the work at hand, it is possible that even after two months, someone still fails to arrive on time.
Therefore, the chief technician of the Natural Disaster Mission, the philosopher Heng of the Witch Association, was so anxious to solve the problem in Lottana City, and then boarded the ship back to the Kingdom of Great Brita without waiting for the dust to settle.
On the same night that travelers from afar landed in the Three Mountains, a man who was tired but not tired carried a black suitcase full of documents and walked into the Cathedral of the Holy Gospel of God.
He entered the Palace of Disaster, and found his boss in the second office in the corridor of the side hall, the saint of the Disaster Mission and the Disaster Witch of the Witch Association——
"Your Majesty Eve."
In this surprisingly large office, which can accommodate twenty-eight desks, twenty filing cabinets, three safes, and twelve rows of bookshelves, Heng has an empty space in the middle.
Walking forward along the aisle, he nodded to the staff who were still sorting files and information late at night. It took him three minutes to walk to the desk at the end, and he put aside the black suitcase that he had never left.
On the chair, he stretched out his right hand to gently caress his chest, and lowered his head to the girl behind the desk: "I'm back. I'm sorry for keeping you waiting."
"ah."
On the large and soft velvet chair, the girl who was treated with such respect by him didn't seem to react. She blinked blankly, and the voice she made subconsciously sounded a little dull. She was not so much sitting on the chair as she was squatting.
She was wearing a dress, and under her starry sky-patterned skirt, her two bare feet restlessly stuck out half the distance from the chair surface, and her small toes scratched the air in the void. There were piles of official documents in front of her.
and a pen with obvious signs of wear and tear. Some official documents are already filled with instructions. Even the "not approved" instructions will be patiently followed by a long list of explanations of the reasons. Some are still blank and are in urgent need of help.
to fill it in completely.
After a long moment of silence, the girl came back to her senses and finally realized that this was not her hallucination, but reality. She pressed her lips tightly to prevent herself from making such a dull sound again, and then silently opened the door closest to her on the left.
From a drawer, he took out a stuffed bear doll with a patch sewn on its brain. He put it on his hand skillfully and manipulated it dexterously with his fingers. The bear doll's mouth opened and closed, and the sound it spit out was audible at first glance.
She may make people feel cold and rigid, but only those who are familiar with her character can hear a hint of happiness that is deeply hidden:
