Inside the Elven Forest, in a city surrounded by dense forests, a magnificent church full of elven art style stands here, which is the cathedral of the Nine Holy Churches, the most famous religious shrine on the continent of Arrow. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The cathedral does not have a name, and in the eyes of the clergy, it is a blasphemy to add this "code name" to the gods they serve, so everyone has always used "cathedral" to refer to this building, but with the silence of the gods, the power of the church is also shrinking little by little, until a few decades ago, there were no other churches in the entire continent of Eero except here.

The Earth Temple built by Mijas in the Duchy of Crystal Fire, which is now the Province of Crystal Fire, can be regarded as the most successful expansion of religious power in recent centuries, but unfortunately this has little to do with the current clergy, for them, Mijas's behavior is more like "starting anew", so everyone has not been able to agree on the attitude of Mijas and his Earth Temple.

"Archbishop, we cannot continue to do this inaction, the mission is urgent." At a regular meeting of the church, a newly promoted bishop presented his idea to the council.

"Enon, my child, it's not that we don't do nothing, but we don't need to do anything." The wise archbishop was also entangled for a while after Mijas was determined to start a change that would spread across the continent, but later developments proved to him the correctness and necessity of the change, so he was happy to continue to stay in this deep forest to plant flowers and retire, in his heart, Mijas is undoubtedly the next archbishop of the Nine Holy Churches, and the identity of the son of God is enough for everyone to recognize, even if not many people know about this identity now.

"Archbishop, there are fewer and fewer believers in the church, and I even saw a lot of people on the way here who only use water to serve the gods, and in this case you actually say that we don't need to do anything?" The new bishop is the new backbone of the clergy of the old school, and he is very disgusted with many of Mijas's actions, but because the old elf Pofil, who is now the archbishop, is quite tolerant of Mijas, and the archbishop's own prestige is unrivaled, so now he can only complain at such regular meetings.

Yes, in the archbishop's opinion, the young man was nothing more than whining.

"Really? But how is it that I see that there are more and more people who are grateful to the gods? The archbishop was noncommittal, in fact, because Mijas was also the bishop of the Earth Church, the priest there easily added the course of "theology" to the newly built school, but the teaching materials were compiled by Mijas after he contacted the earth goddess, and there was no chant of merit in the usual holy texts, only beautiful and simple divine poems and basic moral guidance.

"Those are shallow believers!" Bishop Eno actually hated such people, and he thought that a person who was not firm in his faith was even more degrading if he did not have faith. "With all due respect, it is not a smart move to let the Earth Church break away from the control of the Nine Holy Council, as I said before, there are believers who use water to serve the gods, this kind of blasphemous behavior can actually appear on believers, it is simply unbelievable, and later after in-depth understanding, I learned that this is the idea of Bishop Mijas, and the Earth Church has really implemented this." According to the previous specifications of the Nine Holy Churches, it is necessary to put a lot of food on the table to offer gifts to the gods, and there are strict rules on how much food can be placed for people of different statuses, in addition to this, you can also add some possessions within your ability, which can express a believer's respect for the gods.

"Enon, there are very few people who still offer to the gods according to the 'holy scriptures', and we cannot ask everyone to become devout." In fact, the archbishop also has the intention of abolishing the onerous etiquette, but he is too old to have so much energy to reform the church, which in his eyes should be the duty of the next archbishop, and it is also the merit he left to his descendants, to be precise, a gift to Mijas.

"But the lives of those civilians were not as good as they are now! Even though the grain yield is several times higher than before, but there are still no people willing to follow the ancient rites, isn't this the reason why we need to be admonished? Eno said excitedly.

"Enon." An old man next to the archbishop spoke, he was the bishop of the dark church, and he was also the most powerful person in the council except for the archbishop, usually once he and the archbishop did not disagree, the entire Nine Holy Church would not have a second voice. "It's not the gods who make the grain abundant."

As soon as these words came out, all the bishops couldn't help but sneak a glance at the old man, only the archbishop didn't seem to react, and Bishop Eno looked incredulous, as the attendant of the gods, he really didn't expect the bishop of the dark church to say words that were disrespectful to the gods.

"Without Mother Earth to provide a fertile land, how could there be abundant food? His Highness the Bishop would like you to be cautious. This is the education of the clergy of the old school, and it is the view of many of the bishops here, except for the archbishop and the bishop of the dark church.

"Relying only on the gift of Mother Earth God, it is impossible to produce abundant food." The archbishop put an end to the controversy by putting an end to the old man's intention to continue, and now is not the time for civil strife in the Church.

"That's it, the regular meeting is over, and I hope that as a qualified bishop, you can think about it again and dismiss the meeting." After the archbishop finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the other bishops immediately got up and planned to leave here, but the old man of the dark church was pulled by the archbishop and walked to the backyard, obviously having something to say, leaving only Bishop Eno still sitting in his place, thinking very angrily.

The elves are good at raising flowers and grasses, and the archbishop's backyard has countless exotic flowers and plants, which decorates this small courtyard with a unique taste, and if anyone comes here for the first time, they will definitely be amazed by this unique sense of tranquility.

It was a pity that the Dark Bishop had been to this small courtyard countless times before, and the chic set was no different from an ordinary park for this serious and demanding old man, and now the old man's dissatisfaction with the Archbishop was overflowing.

"I don't understand, we've been wrong for so long, why keep being wrong!" The old man's words were very sharp, and with that even more sharp gaze, even the archbishop had a feeling that he couldn't resist.

In fact, after the "resurrection" of the goddess of the earth, he and the archbishop also tried to get in touch with the goddess, but the final result was that they failed, and the goddess was not uncommon for the prayers of the two legendary priests, of course, the main thing was that these two priests were not her followers, so the two old men who were not younger than Mijas had to come together and ask him to tell the goddess about the church.

Because of this, they knew Mijas's identity as the son of God, and God knows how the two old elves, who are almost 5,000 years old together, will feel after seeing Mijas directly open the space door leading to the Earth Goddess God's kingdom, anyway, Mijas feels that they really look like they are really almost suffering from a heart attack! The goddess of the earth, who had always accommodated her children, was also willing to meet with the two leaders of the current religious forces in the world because of Mijas's intercession.

"yes, we've been wrong for too long." Speaking of this, the archbishop couldn't help but feel gloomy for a while, although the big tree of the church was old, but before that he was still optimistic, after all, the old tree also had new sprouts, but the sneer of the goddess of the earth let him know that old decay is not the problem, the problem is that the church has grown crooked, their persistence in the past thousand years, and the exploration of the millennium are all a huge joke, and the clergy on the continent of Arrow have interpreted the word "self-inflicted amorous" to the fullest.

"But I can't help it." The archbishop sighed deeply, "We have set up an omnipotent 'god' for those children, and their hearts are full of hope, you say, how can I bear to smash this idol with my own hands?" As he spoke, he smiled bitterly twice, "You can imagine what will happen at that time, what will become of the children who have lost hope." ”

"The kindness of a woman!" The Dark Bishop said disdainfully, "Delay will not solve anything, this tree will grow crooked, then we will cut down the tree and leave new branches to replant, what is the difference between those who will lose hope because of such things and those who have no faith, after all, they are only weak, and those who put their weakness in the gods do not deserve the mercy of the gods." ”

"But it's us who are at fault, not the kids." The archbishop couldn't help but think of Bishop Enon, a priest who had gone astray, "They shouldn't have to suffer this for the mistakes we have made. ”

"Do you have other plans?" The Dark Bishop has also reacted now, speaking of the importance he attaches to the Church, the Archbishop will never be weaker than him, and the Archbishop will not watch the Church go to ruin like this.

"Your Highness, the Son of God, what do you think of him being the next archbishop?" The Archbishop turned his head back to stare at the Dark Bishop, who needed the support of his old friend at this time.

"......" the Dark Bishop fell silent, apparently pondering the consequences of this decision for the Church, "Do you want to start a civil war?" In the same way, he thought of the talented Bishop Enon, for whom the young bishop was a man who did not deserve the mercy of the gods, but even he had to admit that this Bishop of Eno had a little means.

"We're old." The archbishop confessed his weakness.

"Hmph, do you learn to admit defeat at this age?" The Dark Bishop couldn't help but think back to his youth, and the archbishop he remembered would not entrust such a thing to someone else.

After another silence, the old man could only sigh, "Yes, we are old. ”
