After Beenice became the new pope of the church, she immediately began to rectify the various problems accumulated internally.
Among them, the training mechanism, assessment mechanism, election mechanism, etc. were repeatedly discussed at the meetings held in an effort to determine a relatively fair new system.
During the discussion, Lorraine Hill also attended the meeting as the sage of Crancia for the first time. She will participate in this change within the church as an advisor and diplomatic envoy.
Of course, when she changed her identity, she also took off the pendant she had previously worn and restored her original appearance. This shocked the bishops and priests present.
Many people thought in a daze that this sage was an angel descended to earth, because the aura and soul were so similar to those of high-level angels.
Because of this, the original feeling of rejecting outsiders immediately dissipated, replaced by all kinds of curiosity and speculation. And because of its good impression of this silver-haired 'angel', the church also discussed matters related to Crancia in several subsequent meetings.
Much friendlier.
"Then, the new system within the church has been finalized. It will be announced at the headquarters and various branches."
The presiding priest at the meeting read out the new system negotiated and formulated during this period, and then began to talk about external matters.
"It is foreseeable that Frost Rose's war against Crancia is about to begin."
"According to the previously set policy, we will provide limited support to Crancia and provide several medical teams. If you want to participate, you can sign up." After finishing speaking, the host glanced at the venue.
Almost all of the people present at the venue were Sequence 6 or above, high-level transcendent beings in the church, and many of them were also bishops. After hearing the host's announcement, a few people raised their hands.
Lorraine Hill was sitting in the middle of the rostrum, on the right side of Beenice. She looked at the volunteers who raised their hands, and one of the familiar faces smiled at her.
That is...Zhu Ya? The girl recalled the bishop she had seen in Hopeland. When she was fighting with Zenep, her appearance and hair color were not concealed. The priest must have recognized it.
Here she comes.
But judging from her friendly appearance, she probably won't talk nonsense. And it's not the past anymore. Even if Lorraine Hill is revealed to be Lacey, it won't affect the overall situation. Instead, she can take the opportunity to merge New Verga into Crancia.
middle.
She nodded slightly to Zhu Ya and greeted him silently. At this time, Beanies next to her also turned her head and asked in a low voice.
"Does Luo Lan know Zhu Ya?"
"Yes, I have met once before." Lorraine Hill looked at the woman with red hair and sighed at the wonderful encounters in life.
"Then I will send Zhu Ya to Soland to be the bishop. It will also be convenient for communicating with you."
"Then I'll trouble Beanies."
After the meeting, the church gradually became busy, and various personnel began to be mobilized according to the new rules and regulations, while Lorraine Hill was idle.
For several Emenas classmates, they only knew that Rochielle had recently participated in a secret mission and would not show up again. But in fact, she had been staying in the secret scripture room in the Holy Mountain recently, reading through the ancient
of classics.
The hard blue-gray stone walls are inlaid with special orange-yellow gems, emitting a warm yellow light, illuminating the library deep underground. Rows of stone bookshelves are neatly arranged, in which are placed various yellowing and old books.
books.
These stone bookshelves are no more than one meter apart, parallel to each other, and continuously extending inward. Their ends are blurry and deep in the dim light.
After obtaining access permission, Lorraine Hill spent almost all of this time here, quickly browsing and looking for information about Chaos and the Twilight Era.
However, there are no outstanding gains.
Keus was indeed right. The information in the Adjudication Department might be more detailed and true. The things she had read in the past few days basically did not escape the scope of what she saw in the Adjudication Department.
The things collected and sorted out by the former Scepter Priest of the Bronze Candle Palace are indeed rare gems.
After understanding that continuing to search was futile, Lorraine Hill decisively gave up.
——————
Inside the Papal Hall.
The glazed flame lamps were lit one after another, illuminating the indoor space, and the various drawings on the walls became clear in the light of the fire. Together with the many carvings, they decorated the interior, showing a magnificent world.
Under the guidance of a nun, Lorraine Hill arrived at Beenice's new office. She looked at everything around her with curiosity along the way. Today she was going to ask Beenice to borrow the book unearthed from the ruins.
storage device.
"You're here, Lorraine." Begnice was sitting at her desk at the moment, signing and reviewing various documents.
"Well, did I bother you?"
"No, actually it's almost finished."
Beenice answered, while Lorraine Hill sat on the sofa nearby, waiting for Beenice to finish her work.
When she looked at the figure working under the light, her eyes became heavy unknowingly. Slowly, the silver-haired girl leaned back on the chair and fell into a peaceful nap. She was still a little sleepy recently.
I don't know how long it took.
"Wake up, little Luo Lan, it's time to have dinner."
At some point, Beenice had already walked up to her. She whispered in Lorraine Hill's ear, asking the sleeping girl to wake up.
After stretching a little, Lorraine Hill stood up from the sofa.
"Is the work over, Begnies?"
"Yes, what do you want to see me for today?" the female pope asked with interest.
"I would like to borrow a certain collection in the Pope's Hall, something that was once excavated in the Dusk Ruins." Lorraine Hill said his request.
"Come with me."
After knowing the purpose of Lorraine Hill's visit, Beenice took the girl deep underground in the Pope's Hall, passed through the passage guarded by special stone statues, opened several secret doors, and a room filled with rare items appeared at the end of the passage.
Under Lorraine Hill's instructions, Beenice took out the object that had been gathering dust for a long time, took it out, and then the two of them walked out.
After placing this special object, which was a bit heavier than the same volume of metal, on the table, Beenice said.
"It's not early today, so you can take this back and study it slowly. In fact, it has been here for many years, and the church has never been able to find its function. Don't be discouraged if the research fails."
After obtaining this mysterious storage device, Lorraine Hill returned to the small courtyard where he usually lived, which was quieter and more comfortable.
The disc in front of you seems to be an extremely precise and standard prism cut. The lines on the surface are very small and dense, as if countless circuits are gathered together.
Lorraine Hill took the disk and called out the system to let it recognize it.
[System recognition, please wait...]
[Please enter the magic activation of the original sequence.]
The girl switches the sequence, inputs the original and purified Mana, and then it spreads on the disk according to specific lines, as if walking through a maze.
With the input of magic power, the disk gradually unfolded, and twinkling clouds and mist gradually emerged around it.
Familiar yet unfamiliar scenery emerged in Lorraine Hill's mind. She said it was familiar because she had seen similar scenes in the records of the Tree of Life Sect.
Under the sky illuminated by the twilight, metal battleships were suspended in the sky, reflecting strange colors. Supersonic fighters flying all over the sky shuttled through the sky, with hollow wings and flowing magic flow, washing away the stubborn resistance on the earth.
enemy.
Those honest giant beasts running on the earth are hundreds of meters high, and the pure white torrent spitting out of their mouths sweeps across the sky, constantly attacking the metal battleships in the sky.
But all this is in vain. Those sky warships are linked to each other, forming a grid like a glass barrier, isolating the sky from the earth, easily resisting these pure white torrents.
Those supersonic fighters swooped down, dodged various attacks with great flexibility, and then continuously adjusted their attack patterns and magic spells according to the opponent's armor and shields, launching extremely targeted blazing magic flows.
And these ejected blue light arrows, sharp and full of energy, penetrated into the body of the giant beast, exploded, and shattered it into burnt pieces of flesh.
After dealing with these giant beasts on the ground, the battleships suspended in the sky fired straight lasers downwards, accurately cutting the earth. Then, following the anti-gravity spell, standard cubes detached from the earth one by one and slowly rose up.
Then it fell aside.
As the blocks on the ground floor floated up, the artificial structures below were slowly revealed. Tiny figures were even seen running and escaping, but soon, the personnel of these other factions were burned and cleared by patrolling fighter planes.
After all the man-made structures underground were cleared, a clean nuclear bomb fell, the flames of the explosion rose, and the base finally disappeared on the ground.
[In 3845, the 'Mechanical Council' defeated the 'Tree of Life Sect' and uprooted all 165 of its bases across the earth. Since then, no other organization or faction on the earth can compete with it, and the earth has been unified. 】
[According to reports and analysis from observers in multiple regions within the organization, the 'Mechanical Parliament' has undergone some kind of reform after devouring the 'Original Heart' faction. It can be seen that the combat effectiveness and collaboration capabilities of their members have made a new leap.
】
[The ‘Mechanical Parliament’ that originally had the upper hand continues to expand its results in various places, and the ‘Deep Sea Alliance’ has launched a wandering plan to escape from this disputed earth. 】
[According to the analysis of the mastermind within the organization, the subspace form of our ‘Retrospective Cloud’ will also be discovered by the ‘Mechanical Parliament’ whose technology is constantly improving in 20 years. 】
[In order to prevent the worst outcome from happening, the organization has decided to use subspace secret observation in the remaining 20 years to fully infiltrate the 'Mechanical Council' and obtain all its information and development models. 】
[After obtaining the data and completing the analysis, we will completely copy the development model of the 'Mechanical Parliament', transform ourselves into the same form as the other party, and carry out convergent evolution. - 3846, April]
Lorraine Hill looked at the scenes stored in it, and the human beings who looked similar to himself finally transformed into completely different forms.
[I believe that what determines us is the fairness and noble character of our actions, not skin color, race, appearance, or even genetic sequence. - Initiative letter at the first meeting of the Commission on Human Survival. 】
[Accepting the limitations of the birth situation reveals a lack of imagination. - At a meeting of all parties, a representative criticized the ethics committee for having too many restrictive regulations. ]
[Limbs are just extensions of the senses, why don’t we use more efficient artificial creations. - The 'Mechanical Council' refutes the 'Tree of Life Sect', natural life does not mean perfection, but defective under restricted conditions.
Taste.】
[When you are still immersed in the so-called love, family, and friendship, I have to remind you that it is just a psychedelic reaction produced by the brain under hormones. - The 'Mechanical Parliament' will discard useless things. 】
[The key to extraordinary power is the soul and consciousness. If the souls of all people are connected, does that mean the birth of gods? - An unrealistic fantasy of a certain congressman. 】
The girl continued to read through the records of past events. As the hard times came to an end at the beginning of the Twilight Era, human floating cities continued to increase, and the crisis of survival gradually disappeared.
After losing this sense of crisis, the Human Survival Committee gradually lost attention, and one member after another separated from it.
Floating cities in various places have gradually formed many factions and organizations based on their own preferences and research directions. They are united with values and technical directions as the core. In this era without a country, they have replaced the position of the country and formed
A completely new institutional structure.
After that, several major factions continued to expand, and then humans returned to the earth to clean up the alien beasts and various toxic and harmful substances on the ground.
After this, about 200 years of prosperity ushered in, which were also the most warm and peaceful years in the Twilight Era.
However, with the development of technology of all parties, the cognitive differences between them have become larger and larger. Especially the "Tree of Life" faction has begun to create "new humans" that are different from the past, which greatly challenges the ethical bottom line of all parties.
.
While the Ethics Committee and the 'Tree of Life' sect were quarreling, another weak organization also appeared on Earth. They were obsessed with and worshiped the era of steel, electronics, and machinery on Earth, and expressed their desire to revive the unfinished era.
'Millennium Dream'.
When this organization was first established, no one cared about it, but they soon developed. And, in order to obtain the resources needed for development from the gradually solidifying world structure, they began to fully arm themselves, and their technical model was also particularly suitable.
war.
In this way, time and time again, the 'Mechanical Parliament' began to break the inherent pattern of the world. Although there were several peace talks and armistices during this period, other organizations in the world also woke up and began to arm themselves.
And at this point, the prosperous and peaceful world is no longer, and various organizations and factions have begun a crazy competition on the earth, among which the two factions of the 'Mechanical Parliament' and the 'Tree of Life' are the most powerful.
