On the other hand, the 'Artificial Celestial Kingdom' in your report… This is also very important. The Pope feels compassion for the souls that gather for a long ti and don't disperse. At the last mont of life, he wants to help do sothing, even if they are heretics.
This ti, our targets are exactly these two things. Of course, aside from that, if we can bring back Chen Lusi, it would be even better. Do you understand now?"
"..."
Ivan, hearing Mijie's words, especially the last part, suddenly turned his head to look at Yevgeny.
Yevgeny remained expressionless.
Ivan's face turned slightly pale. He finally understood what the two really wanted to do and why the Pope was willing to take the risk.
Because he was dying.
The highest leader of one of the three major religions, bedridden for years, was about to die.
And he clearly did not want to et his Lord so soon.
But this is not sothing external forces can change.
Or more precisely, not sothing ordinary external forces can change.
But if… if he could have an Artificial Celestial Kingdom located in the Human World, as the Shepherd Leader of one of the largest religions, he could completely reside within it, make it a vessel accommodating him, aligning the beliefs of the believers below both towards God and towards himself, allowing him to be reborn in another form.
… A form of God.
Clearly, this operation is not just for the benefit of the Russian Orthodox Church.
More importantly, it is for the benefit of the Pope who has ruled the Russian Orthodox Church for nearly a hundred years under the crown.
All those who block him, who hinder him from living, will beco his enemies.
And soone who is about to die indeed has nothing to worry about.
No wonder.
No wonder… Yevgeny was so keen.
"We will sacrifice for the Pope."
Yevgeny was being watched by Ivan, his expression unchanged, but he devoutly made a sign of the cross on his chest.
"It seems you understand… This is our purpose, and the Pope also has high expectations for you. He hopes you won't let him down. After this matter, the door to the position of Cardinal will be open to you, and perhaps by then, when we et again, I will have to pay my respects to you."
On the other hand.
Mijie patted Ivan on the shoulder, chuckling, "But before that, you need to prove your faith."
Ivan said nothing, his face ashen.
He didn't believe in the fairy tales, but he had no way to retreat.
Mijie said nothing more, instead turning to look at Yevgeny: "The Celestial Strategy Mansion Headquarters has been dealt with, Chen Lu, Tang Language, and Shanli have already been put into prison. However, the bad news is that the Artificial Celestial Kingdom has also gone to 'prison', which complicates the matter at the mont.
But it's not a big problem. I will continue to create avatars, dragging more people into the swamp… and then force them to hand over the Artificial Celestial Kingdom and even Chen Lu.
However, there is no hurry with this. I need ti."
"Yes."
Yevgeny nodded.
"But before this."
Mijie continued: "To silence those Cardinals, we need to ensure the interests of the Russian Orthodox Church first. The mbers of the Celestial Strategy Mansion responsible for monitoring you have already been 'transford', including a small squad of Security Army mbers, who hold Celestial Punishnt Weapons. I need you to find a way to get them out of here and head towards the border.
To avoid unnecessary trouble later on, you need to take them, along with the weapons, to the Russian Orthodox Church, though my Authority Ability can't reach too far. So for the latter part of the journey, you'll need to figure out how to control these people."
Yevgeny paused, then frowned and asked, "Alone?"
"No, the Russian Orthodox Church will have soone to cooperate with you by then. You only need to lead them through the first half, and as for the trouble, I think they will handle it well… If you really can't resolve it, then it's your turn to make a move."
Mijie explained: "For instance, those stubborn people who don't recognize others."
"Understood."
Yevgeny paused for a mont, then nodded.
Mijie looked at Ivan again.
Under Mijie's gaze, Ivan opened his mouth, but ultimately couldn't say any words of refusal, instead slowly lowering his head: "Yes."
"Then prepare, this is what you need to do. Soon those people will co up and tell you the route. As for other matters, I will inform you by then. I expect you to bring good news."
Mijie saw Ivan nod, smiled contentedly, then turned to leave.
"Don't let the impact radiate to the center."
Yevgeny suddenly rembered sothing: "Mijie Referee, according to the Pope's intentions, there are still two people in the center who are not staying at the Celestial Strategy Mansion Headquarters."
"I know."
Mijie replied without looking back: "I have no interest in provoking them. The people on the periphery are already enough."
After saying that.
She left with a large stride.
Bang—
The door was closed.
Ivan looked at the tightly closed door, staggered back a step, then slumped into a chair, his face pale.
He never expected that a simple mission would develop into this… getting deeply enshed to the point where he couldn't even extricate himself.
Yevgeny glanced at Ivan, said nothing further, then sat back on the bed, closing his eyes to adjust his own state.
But just as he closed his eyes.
He seed to hear soone calling him Cardinal… and couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth.
...
Xia Panqiu stood in front of the hotel's full-length mirror, looking at herself in the mirror.
Her short hair just touched her shoulders, her skin was snow-white and crystal clear, her legs long and straight, with graceful lines.
Then.
She lifted the Cloud Ascension Authority.
The person in the mirror transford into another appearance… adding a charming allure.
