"Let's 'bid farewell' to the departed parishioners!"

With a wave of his scepter, all the clergy in the cathedral bowed their heads at the 'robes' placed in front of them.

In the end, the clergy who chose to 'leave' took off their robes, whether they were neat and new or had a slight stain, and those robes were gathered together in one place, and the clergy in the church hung their heads on the robes as their final 'farewell'.

Even though those people may become their enemies in the future, they were once their parishioners.

However, they are only 'former Catholics' who are willing to contribute their strength to the development of the country and society.

Now those people have changed, they have become timid, they have become unenterprising...... It's completely changed!

Those people are no longer their parishioners, and the next time they meet, they may become enemies.

"Raise your head, it is impossible for those who left to come back here, I am afraid that now they may have run on the road to keep their family alive, this is their inner choice, we respect them, so we have no right to interfere. The Sphinx snorted coldly, "But, the next time we meet, they will become our enemies, if we fight, don't show mercy!"

With that, the clergy standing behind him opened the new 'canon' in their hands.

This was obtained from the bishop only after the departure of those people, and it seems that His Excellency the Pope probably did not want those people to know the new doctrine of their Church so early.

"Go and open the door. The sphinx, holding a copy of the new Codex, commanded his paladins.

The taciturn knight saluted neatly, and then opened the thick and heavy doors of the cathedral with his colleagues.

The brilliant sun dispelled the dark clouds that had still hung over the Holy City just a moment ago, and watching the sphinx step out of the cathedral in the sunlight, he was as proud as he was, and bowed his head slightly, showing his respect to the supreme god.

The once 'aristocratic holy city' was solemn, and everyone who walked the streets had a basic sense of etiquette, even the merchants who came and went would take off their hats and salute each other.

Every part of the city is full of rituals, but from another point of view, this solemn sense of rituals appears in every part of life, is it a little too pedantic?

It wasn't until now, when the sphinx re-looked at the city that was once perfect in his eyes, that he realized that they had changed a little over time.

They may think that they are still following the 'traditions' handed down by their ancestors and nobles, but in reality, even they have not escaped the 'spell' that time has cast on them, but because these changes are so slow that no one notices them.

Now that they know, they naturally have to correct it!

Self-examination and self-correction is an ability that nobles must have, but unfortunately, not many nobles have this ability, otherwise the situation would not be what it is today.

Standing on the stairs at the entrance of the cathedral, facing the majestic square in front of him, the sphinx couldn't help but sigh in his heart, lamenting the changes in the world and himself.

He turned his head slightly, and saw the bishopric standing on either side of him and the few remaining priests and priests, but a smile rose on the corner of his mouth.

"Without horses or chariots, today we will leave all luxuries behind and proclaim the teachings of our Lord to the world. The sphinx took a deep breath and took the lead down the stairs, "From now on, our church will be called the 'Progressive Church', and our faith will also be the 'Goddess of Progress'!"

After him, the clergy who chose to stay only felt that the blood in their bodies was boiling and burning, and the frenzy in their eyes overflowed, and under the change of their throats, they turned into a cry that shook the heavens, and recited the first paragraph of the Codex: "I will devote myself to promoting social development and progress, and will remove all obstacles that hinder social development!"

The people who had come from far and wide to pay their respects to the 'noble holy city' gathered in the square in front of the cathedral, and they bowed their heads, not daring to cast their admiring eyes on the statue, but only to whisper the teachings of the 'noble church'.

But suddenly, they heard a roar of rage, as if they were vowing to tear something apart, and the sound shook everyone's heart.

When he looked up, he saw a group of clergy dressed in gold on a white background pouring out of the cathedral, but the slogan they shouted was not the doctrine of the 'noble church'...... What's going on?

The tall sphinx wears the crown of the Pope on his head, wears the robe of the Pope, and holds the Pope's scepter, all of which indicate his identity, and almost everyone who believes in the 'noble goddess' knows this Pope like no other.

However, he was now at the front of the line, and those 'rebellious' remarks seemed to be the ones he took the lead in shouting...... What's going on, what's going on?

Surprised, puzzled, and frightened were cast into the ranks of the Progressive Church's clergy, and as a transcendent knight and legendary priest, the Sphinx naturally noticed their gaze, but he didn't care.

As 'Pope', his mission is to convey the decrees of the gods and to disseminate their will.

Nowadays, the 'noble goddess' is no more, and the god they believe in has become the 'goddess of progress', so he must also spread the will of the 'goddess of progress' to the world!

The will of the 'Goddess of Progress' is naturally to 'call on all people to promote the progress and development of society', and even to cultivate a large number of talents who can promote social development.

This is an opportunity, which has now reached the end of one era and another is coming.

The old and decaying aristocracy may not disappear because of this, but the shackles that have weighed on the heads of the broad masses of the common people must be broken.

The Sphinx has long been tired of today's aristocrats, where can they still be called 'nobles'?

Aristocracy is a combination of power and duty, and with duty comes power comes power, not with power comes obligation – they got it wrong from the beginning!

Rather than let those fools continue to tarnish the title of 'nobility', it is better to wipe them all out.

- They don't deserve to be called 'nobles'!

He didn't see any 'nobility' in those fools!

Therefore, the sphinx shouted: "Under the guidance of the goddess, we will sweep away all obstacles to social development, and do our best to promote social development and progress, and only to maintain the freedom and happiness that the people deserve!"

The procession set off from the cathedral, and every step fell as if it had stepped on the hearts of others, leaving them dumbfounded and speechless.

The sonorous words slammed into the city like a drumstick, and the cries of the clergy bound their convictions.

Blood-boiling words soared upward, and fanatical faith soared into the sky.

Every word and sentence is constantly strengthening their will and tempering their faith.

Yes, they have seen it!

What is the future they want to see?

Naturally, the future in which people live and work in peace and contentment, the neighborhoods are harmonious, and there will be no more human tragedies is the future they want!

They may not know what to do yet, but under the guidance of the Goddess, they will surely push society down this path!

Because they are 'nobles' and the glory comes from themselves, they have a duty and an obligation to do so!
