Chapter 567
“What Oriana transported was not the “Pricking Sword”, but the “Apostle’s Cross”.”
Steele said: “Of course we should pay attention to the former. Didn’t I just say that? Strictly speaking, the vast land of Orthodox Church should start from the place where the “Apostles’ Cross” was erected. If so, conversely Say……”
“on the other hand?”
Luo Chen answered the call.
At this moment, Steele lit a cigarette for himself, and after taking a puff, he exhaled a large cloud of white smoke.
“That’s right. In other words, the place where the “Apostles’ Cross” is erected will be completely under the control of the Orthodox Church, even Academy City.”
“”Pricking Hang Sword” was originally a sword that can pierce a dragon and nail it to the earth. It is a huge existence with two wings. From the guardianship of sleeping treasures to the slaughter of selfish desires, such dragons are also angels serving God and fallen creatures. Metaphor of the devil.”
Stiles continued.
“Putting the dragon on the ground also meant to let the angels guard the land and turn it into a holy place. That thing does not seem to be “made of gold” that can absorb human will, it is completely “automatically directed to a favorable direction for Orthodoxy as a whole”, however,
What would happen if something like this was erected in Academy City? ”
“So to say……”
The corners of Luo Chen’s mouth curled up, and he joked.
“In this way, Academy City will become beneficial to the Orthodox Church, so the followers of the Orthodox Church will become quite lucky when they come to Academy City?”
“Well, if the effect of the “Apostle’s Cross” is the same as in the literature, it is not all a bad thing. The Orthodox Christians who enter this city will continue to win money even if they encounter major wins or losses when gambling. Even if the building is bombed You won’t get hurt even if you blow it off, it’s unnatural, plus…”
Steele curled his lips ironically.
“The “Apostle’s Cross” will also help people other than Orthodox Christians. If Orthodox Christians continue to win money in gambling, of course some people will lose money.”
“But the “Apostle’s Cross” will create a good situation, even if the bomb is the same, even if the building is destroyed because of the explosion.And blowing up, no one will be fatally injured, and it will create a happy situation where everyone is fine. ”
Hearing these words, Luo Chen immediately answered.
“It’s impossible for the Orthodox Church to be so kind. There must be other reasons hidden in it.”
Stiyl nodded.
“That’s right.”
While the two were talking, they walked towards the streets outside the range of “dispersing idlers”.
“If something like the “Apostles’ Cross” hadn’t been erected in the first place, no one would have lost money in gambling, and no bombs would have been set to target Orthodox Christians. At first glance, everyone is living happily, but in reality Going to the “Apostles’ Cross” puts a huge load on those around you, and it’s unseen.”
In fact, in the history of Christianity, this kind of happy “swapping” happened unexpectedly frequently.
For example, St. Martin, this guy has a very interesting story.
That was the story when he destroyed the ancient pagan temples and planned to cut down the sacred tree for the mission of Christianity.
The pagan farmers who did not want to become Christians resisted until the end and said: “If there is really a god protecting you, you should catch the sacred tree we cut down. If you are really blessed by the god, you should not die.”
After hearing these words, Saint Martin drew a sign of the cross on his chest facing the tree that fell towards him.
As a result, an incredible thing happened. The Shenmu fell in the opposite direction, almost crushing the pagan farmers. The farmers were touched by the miracle of the Lord, so they harvested and believed in Christianity…
“Don’t you think this is strange? The person who used the incredible ability to make the tree fall to the farmers is obviously St. Martin himself. He can make the tree fall in a safer place.”
Stiles said with a look of disdain.
“Anyway, the result is that the Shenmu that fell in the opposite direction did not kill the heretics, because this is the mercy bestowed by the Lord, and the farmers who have the opportunity to convert are all very happy.”
“No matter whether the result is good or bad, their original history, tradition, and spiritual culture will undoubtedly be completely wiped out.”
This can indeed give happiness.
But that’s not “happiness because something happened”, but “happiness no matter what happens”.
Psychologically, this method has been determined to have a certain degree of effect. First, fulfill the absolutely impossible request a, and raise the original request b when the other party pleads that it cannot be fulfilled. …
In this way, it will be easier to achieve the request than asking for b from the beginning. Like b is so much better than a, so lucky.
As long as you operate the balance between negative and negative in a specific order, you can reduce the relative value of happiness.
Still shaking the cigarette in his mouth up and down, he continued.
“The “Apostle’s Cross” uses this mythological psychological effect. No matter what happens, things will go in a direction that is beneficial to the Orthodox Church. People around them who make unreasonable demands will accept them for some reason…
For the Orthodox Church, this is undoubtedly the most comfortable and pleasant “holy place”, right? “Luo Chen nodded.
“Then what exactly are Oriana and the others going to do?”
“If this world is divided into two parts, it can be divided into scientific forces and magical forces. Now it just happens to be in a state of balance.” Stiyl simply replied.
“Among them, the leader of the scientific forces is Academy City. If this Academy City is fully under the protection of the Orthodox Church, how do you think the balance of this world will become?”
Luo Chen answered.
“If the scientific forces that occupy a part of the world become an organization under the magical forces, with the world’s general scientific forces plus the magic’s own organizational power, they can indeed control more than 50% of the world’s forces. Then as long as By relying on the simple principle of majority resolution, we can exercise our rights in the world on a larger scale.”
If attacked by both science and magic, organizations or agencies that only belong to one world cannot resist.
The balance of power in the world will be completely concentrated on the Orthodox side.
The Orthodox Church doesn’t need to think about what to do in order to bring Academy City into its hands. As long as the “Apostle’s Cross” is placed in Academy City, Academy City will completely take actions that are beneficial to the Orthodox Church.
“For this reason, Orianna’s transaction is not a single-item transaction of the “Spike Hang Sword” or “Apostle’s Cross”, but is beneficial to the “Academy City” dominated by the Orthodox Church and the dominance of the world. ”
Stiyl took a deep breath, and the cigarette in his mouth lit up with an orange light due to the inhalation of oxygen. .
