Chapter 200
"...... Uproar"
The cardinal's words caused an uproar among the people at the scene, and everyone, especially those leaders who secretly supported the cultivators' countries or forces, looked at the cardinal who said this sentence angrily, what is the glory of your lord, just say it to you directly.
The reason why these countries or forces, at the risk of offending the Holy See, spend a lot of human and material resources to secretly support these cultivators, is mainly because they can quickly cultivate a group of super-capable talents, which is also related to the fact that they have lost troops and lost troops in the blessed land, and they urgently need to replenish talents in this area.
But now the Holy See wants to recruit these people under his command with a simple sentence, this is no longer a fool's dream, it is simply a pipe dream, people cut leeks and know to plant leeks first, and then cut them one by one when they grow up, but what about the Holy See's move, not even leeks are planted, and directly cut other people's leeks that have grown well or even not grown, what kind of move is this, this is obviously a naked robbery.
"Why?" At this time, a person stood up and asked in a rough voice with a frown, this person is none other than the leader of the small country that has been controlled by the Holy See, since it knows what it is controlled by, it has been extremely shameful about the actions of the Holy See, but it is a pity that his national strength and international prestige are far less than that of the Holy See Kingdom, so he can only swallow this breath.
But this time, he really couldn't help it, because this basically shook his foundation, and it was true that his only awakened sacrifice died in the blessed land, so he urgently needed the strength of cultivators in this area, and now with his strong support, more than a dozen cultivators have successfully cultivated, and they are about to bear fruit, but they were cut off by the Holy See with a word.
How can there be such a way of playing, just by virtue of a sentence for the common welfare of mankind, you have to make those cultivators forcibly believe in your teachings, so that those countries or forces that cultivate cultivators can still mobilize these people?
You must know that faith is extremely terrible, just like a pyramid scheme, if this kind of belief is taken to the extreme, then to put it badly, I am afraid that even my father and mother will not recognize it, only recognize what god he believes in, which is also the fundamental reason why the public officials of the world's superpowers require or recommend not to believe, it is really this uncontrollable factor that sometimes destroys big things.
"Why?" said the cardinal who spoke with a strange smile, "With our Holy See being the faith organization with the largest number of believers in the world and having the broadest faith base in the world, as long as we speak out to stop it, it will be difficult for you to continue to develop those cultivators. ”
When the cardinal said this, his eyes flashed with great confidence, which is also the basis for him to dare to speak like this, indeed, the believers of the Holy See can be said to be the most widely distributed and largest faith organization, coupled with a long history and unique cultural heritage, the influence of the Holy See is so huge that it is incomparable.
Just like this joint conference, the organizer has been decided, and the Holy See has easily held the right to host it just by virtue of its pervasive influence, which is enough to prove the great influence of the Holy See, of course, there are still places in the world where the Holy See cannot influence or even develop, such as some countries of faith, such as Tianzhu, and some countries with weak or even no faith, such as China.
This is also the fundamental reason why the cardinal does not have so much confidence in the face of the Huaxia staff, because the Holy See has always wanted to infiltrate Huaxia and turn it into a parish of their deep faith, but unfortunately this lifeline has been strangled by the high-level of Huaxia, so he can only provoke slightly, but dare not target the reason.
Hearing the cardinal's words, the leader of that small country was speechless, not to mention him, but even other people, because the countries ruled by these people were all believers in the teachings of the Holy See, and the base of believers was very large, and even many public officials in some countries were also believers.
"My Holy See has a long history and a complete theoretical foundation of faith, and you can see how well we have done in persuading people to be good, so for the sake of peace and tranquility in the human world, I suggest that you still accept this point of view, but for the sake of fairness and impartiality, and also to prevent everyone from thinking that our Holy See is too hegemonic, I have a proposal, that is, we can establish an alliance of cultivators, in the area of cultivators, guided by the teachings of the Holy See, led by several other parties, to jointly create a harmonious alliance of cultivators。 ”
"I'm afraid this is the true purpose of the Holy See, what I said before is just a cover, this is their fundamental purpose, but what good is it to do this?" Shan Liang asked Yu Jianhua with some puzzlement after listening to the cardinal's words.
This is the legendary bargaining, it is equivalent to doing business, the seller is another country, and the buyer is the Holy See, the buyer looks at the price of the trademark, and if he is not satisfied, he directly gives a price that the seller cannot accept, and then makes a little concession on this basis as a relief, and finally a seller is satisfied, but in fact it is still a much lower price than the original price, which is very common in diplomacy. Yu Jianhua thought about it and explained in words that a single beam could understand.
"In other words, what kind of leadership is just a transition?" Shan Liang asked again.
"Of course, his previous request was too outrageous for anyone to agree to. Yu Jianhua said as a matter of course, as if if someone had agreed to the cardinal's previous proposal, he would not be human.
"Then what are the other parties you call them?" Just as Shan Liang and Yu Jianhua were whispering, another person stood up and asked.
"Of course, it is led by the strongest cultivators, our Holy See does not participate in the management of specific things, but only leads the minds of cultivators, and does not let them do evil and endanger human safety, as for specific things, they are managed by the strongest cultivators, and it is best not to participate in political and other factors, so as to create a harmonious and equal world of cultivators. ”
Although the cardinal's words were very high-sounding, everyone knew that if this method was really followed, then the country or force where the strongest cultivators were located would be the real leaders, after all, these cultivators were supported by the state.
"Hey, this is equivalent to the separation of military and political governance in our military, isn't our military also a military chief to grasp the daily life, and the political cadres to grasp the ideology, it is really a change of soup and not a change of medicine. Yu Jianhua said with a sneer.
Shan Liang didn't answer Yu Jianhua's words, he listened carefully to the interaction or discussion between the cardinal and the others in the audience, and after some bargaining, the Holy See reached an agreement with everyone present, that is, through the way of the ring competition, to determine the five strongest cultivators, as the director of the so-called cultivator alliance, responsible for managing the daily life of the alliance, as for the location of the ring competition, it is this conference venue.
When the huge curtain walls that looked like glass were raised around the conference hall, Shan Liang understood why he felt that the inside and outside of the venue were inconsistent when he first came to this venue, and the reason was because of these curtain walls.
Behind the curtain wall, there are rows of annular stands, which look the same as the stands of the stadium, and the reason why the single beam was not found before is because the lighting of these curtain walls is a high-tech product, which can irradiate the sunlight outside through the principle of refraction, so that it can shine in, and it looks like the sun directly shines in.
So that's the case, Shan Liang sighed secretly in his heart, no wonder those clergy outside the Holy See had a collective rush back at the beginning of the joint conference. It turns out that the Holy See has long had this kind of plan, if those so-called strongest cultivators come from the Holy See, then it will become the Holy See's dominance, and it is even possible to completely absorb it, and it is not impossible to form the Holy See's own power.
I am afraid that this idea of the Holy See is not only because of this blessed land incident, but has been planned for a long time, as early as after the appearance of the blessed land of Shifeng, the pope of the Holy See began to be active among various countries and forces in the West, I am afraid that the Holy See already had this plan at that time, and the previous blessed land incident was just a pretense.
It is no wonder that after the appearance of the blessed land on the high seas, as the world's largest faith organization, the Holy See did not send anyone into the blessed land to explore, and after that, Bishop John only asked a few words about the blessed land, and after Bishop John was frustrated on the flagship of the Pacific Fleet, the Holy See has not moved any more.
And the Holy See saw that after the superpowers of Western countries suffered heavy losses in the blessed land, it used the name of the blessed land and the problem of that period of cultivation exercises, and put forward the things that they had been planning for a long time at the right opportunity.
Because of the relationship between time and region, this ring match will definitely not be visible in a short period of time, so the time of the ring match is set for a week, so that all countries and forces can gather their cultivators or abilities here during this time.
It is worth noting that Huaxia, which has nothing to do with this cultivation exercise, is also invited to participate in this ring competition, of course, since you participate in the ring competition, you also need to undertake a series of arrangements after the establishment of the cultivator alliance, if you don't choose to participate, you can watch this ring competition as a spectator.
Contrary to Shan Liang's expectations, after hearing the cardinal's invitation, the head agreed in person without thinking too much, and then on the way back to the reception hotel, the head did not say a word, but frowned and pondered all the way, because of this ring match, Shan Liang's trip was delayed, and they needed to wait until after the game before they could return to Huaxia together, so they still lived in the Wanguo Hotel.
Just when Shan Liang and the others returned to the room, and Shan Liang walked towards his room, the head suddenly spoke without saying a word, "Shan Liang, you must win this game!"
