Chapter 487 [The Kingdom of God?]

Of course, Chen Daolin had enough confidence to say this to the Pope.

If Chen Daolin was a little guilty when he lied to this old man in the imperial capital and was just using a bunch of lies to fool this guy - then now, Chen Daolin can say these words with confidence:

Yes, there is such a piece of land overseas! A land that the Rolanders have never set foot on!

I spent more than six years with Lu Gao in the small world, and fought hundreds or thousands of fights. Of course, I also heard many interesting things from Lu Gao's mouth.

For example, about the origin of those orc alien races.

Nowadays, fewer and fewer people know these secret things in this world, and Lu Gao is undoubtedly one of the people who have experienced that era intact.

I heard from this guy that he even had a fight with the gods of the Elf Clan - although he lost a lot.

According to Lu Gao, one hundred and forty years ago, there were no alien orc dwarf elves on the Roland Continent.

These guys came from the "north".

I heard from those aliens themselves that they passed through the coldest ice field before they came to the Roland Continent. And they once lived in another land...

According to this statement, Chen Daolin immediately pieced together the terrain of a planet in his heart.

If the rules of this space have not changed much, if the land under your feet is also a planet, then Chen Daolin is 99% sure, and there will definitely be a continent overseas!

That continent is probably the land where the alien races lived for generations before the Roland Continent was counterattacked by their ancestors.

So... even when facing Heinx's swearing, Chen Daolin was not under any psychological pressure - because there must be such a continent overseas.

As for whether people in the church can be found after going to sea, it is not a question of Chen Daolin.

Of course, even if the expedition fleet really found that continent... it would be impossible to find the "overseas country" that Chen Daolin said he came from. Unless there is a crossing gate on that continent.

According to Chen Daolin's estimate, even if these church elites are lucky enough to find a new continent, the biggest possibility in that new continent is to encounter a group of alien races.

Chen Daolin is very confident about this.

Since the alien races entrenched in the north of Roland Continent all migrated from that continent more than a hundred years ago, according to the rules of migration of any life race, some seeds will definitely be left in the original place.

In the real world, whether it is the migration of animals in Africa or the migration of ethnic Homo sapiens, the ancestor of humans in ancient times, it is impossible to migrate completely, and some will always be left in place.

Even if you move, you will lose something, let alone millions of civilized races?

Chen Daolin affirmed that there must be a residual population of alien races on that continent, which is almost certain.

"I want to send so many elites in the church. There must be many people with wisdom, courage and luck. Although going to sea is always dangerous, I think if the goddess blesses you, you will definitely be able to find the other side."

Chen Daolin said a few polite words casually.

Heinx stared at Chen Daolin and was silent for a while. He said in a deep voice: "I have sent my disciple, Lan Lan."

Chen Daolin changed color suddenly!!

Seeing Chen Daolin suddenly jumping from the chair, Heinx's face was extremely gloomy!

"You really deceived me!" Angry sparks were beating in Heinx's eyes: "I know that the only person you care about and care about in the entire Temple of Light is Lan Lan! With such a reaction, you would have known for a long time that those people I sent were destined to get nothing! Darlingchen, your reaction has already explained everything!"

"Does an old man like you have this kind of self-righteous habit no matter what he does or says?" Chen Daolin retorted bluntly: "My reaction can only mean that I care about Lanlan. His Majesty the Pope. Listen well, I can guarantee that there must be a large piece of land overseas! There is absolutely no doubt about this! But to find that land, there is definitely a difficult future and a slim hope! If it weren't for such a great difficulty, would you think that land would not be discovered by people in these tens of thousands or tens of thousands of years?

I'm just very strange. As the Pope, you are so gambled. I heard that Lan Lan is your disciple and the saint you want. I know what the saint is in the church. You sent out all the leader of the Saint Knights and a saint... If all these people were sacrificed in the sea, then your church will definitely be greatly damaged! His Majesty Heinx, if such a situation occurs at that time, don't blame me." Chen Daolin's eyes were cold: "I just pointed you in a direction."

Heinx looked at Chen Daolin coldly: "Are you angry? Is your anger because I sent Lan Lan?"

"That woman has nothing to do with me." Chen Daolin stared at Heinx's eyes and said slowly, "Whether she is dead or alive, it is your decision. If going to sea is a dead end, it is also you who pushed her onto that road with your own hands. Moreover, I was not angry. I just felt a little sad when I heard bad news that an old friend might have died.

Moreover, even if she died overseas…at least hundreds of people would be buried with her.”

"When you become a holy rank, will your heart become cold and hard?" Heinx sighed softly.

"Cold and hard? No, no, no, you are not qualified to blame me in this matter." Chen Daolin laughed: "Let a girl who is as young as a flower, keeps the statue of God for life for the rest of her life is the doctrine of your Temple of Light! It is the decision of your Pope to send hundreds of devout believers on the road of lifeless death. You are cold and hard-hearted? Your Majesty the Pope, your heart is ten thousand times colder than me."

"I will wait for a while, if they haven't come back yet..." Heinx stared at Chen Daolin, a trace of evil spirit flashed in his eyes.

"You don't have to threaten me." Chen Daolin sneered: "Don't you think this threat is ridiculous? The people have been sent out and the ship is already in the sea. At this time, you come to threaten me... Whether they can survive. I can decide whether they come back alive is not what I can decide now. When they come back alive, they are lucky and all die, and they are bad. Pope. What you give me now is like an old man who is angry after losing a bet."

Heinx was silent.

He did feel a little restless.

To be precise, this impetuous change in mood is not because there is no news about the expedition ship fleet going to sea. But because... facing Chen Daolin at this moment.

When he faced this guy, he was just a little magician. Although he was known as the messenger chosen by the goddess... but he was just a little magician after all.

And now, less than a year has passed, this guy is already a holy rank.

This feeling of losing initiative is what makes the Pope become impetuous.

"I always think you are a little more bright and deep." Chen Daolin put down the jar of wine and placed it at his feet.

"Silly?" The Pope was not angry - he had always known that the young man in front of him had never looked down on the people of the Temple of Light.

"Of course it's stupid." Chen Daolin shook his head: "You are gradually declining and gradually losing to the royal family. In fact, it is caused by your own stupidity.

What is religion? Religion is something that controls spiritual beliefs, but you have to use religion to control secular power. Do you know that once anything becomes secular, it loses the sense of mystery and worship.

You can't understand the general trend!

When the Tulip family is so powerful that the royal family is in control of power. When suppressing the divine power, you can't understand the general trend and repeatedly fight... The result is that you not only lose, but also lose too many people's hearts.

The most ruthless thing Du Wei did was to abolish the power of the Temple of Light to collect religious taxes.

It’s ridiculous that people in your church have always regarded it as a great shame. I heard that until these few years, many senior church leaders have been tirelessly fantasizing that one day the religious tax will be restored.

This is simply self-destruction!”

"Without taxes, the church's financial resources are getting exhausted. Without financial resources, how can we revitalize the church's prestige?" The Pope frowned and shook his head, "No matter what you do, it costs money. Raising the Holy Knights requires money, buying war horses and weapons requires money. Raising so many clergy also costs money."

"So I just collect taxes?" Chen Daolin laughed: "I don't like taxes like this. If I pay taxes to the country, then everyone can't accept it. But religious taxes? Taxes are collected in the name of God. Do you think this is ridiculous if your Majesty Pope?

What are you? Can you represent God?

God tells you how much does it take to collect taxes? Do you collect 100 copper coins a year or 50 copper coins? How much does a farmer have to pay for the church after ploughing ten acres of land?

These things are all sent to you by the goddess? They are what the goddess said in your ear when you pray?

Bullshit!

It is all decided by the charlatans in your church!

You have decided to ask others to pay to support you, and then give it to "in the name of God" - hahahaha! There are indeed stupid people in this world, but at least smart people will despise you until you die.

What is 'tax'?

Tax is a mandatory act of collecting wealth!

Do you understand? Mandatory!

Whether a person is a believer or not, no matter whether his faith in God is deep or shallow, you forcefully ask him to give you money... Isn't this ridiculous?

Some people believe in it and believe in piously, and spend half of the month going to church to pray. Of course, you can tax such people, so you will be fine.

Some people are dispensable with faith. If you impose taxes on such people, they will hate you!

Heinx, don't you understand?

People in this world have no obligation to support you guys unconditionally! There is no obligation!

But you are going to impose this on everyone to do... This is the biggest reason why the church is unpopular."

"But... the religious tax has been cancelled long ago." Heinx's face was pale.

"That's why I said you are stupid, you deserve it!" Chen Daolin sneered: "Who did the abolishment of religious tax? It was Du Wei!!! You resisted repeatedly, but in the end you couldn't resist, so you had to obey.

Can this be the same?

Do you understand? This is the general trend!

But you can't see clearly. You just struggled until the last moment before letting go angrily.

What's the result?

As a result, everyone in the world has received Du Wei's kindness! The religious tax has been abolished, and everyone is grateful to Du Wei! Thanks to the Tulip Family! But they still hold a grudge against you Temple of Light!

Do you think you are stupid? Not only are you lost money, but you also lose your heart!

If I had been the Pope of the Temple more than a hundred years ago, I would have been destined to order the church to take the initiative to cancel the religious tax on its own!

At least you can still buy people's hearts!

What's the result? Of course everyone hates you!

What are the people?

I tell you that the people in the world are the simplest group of people.

A man originally had to pay fifty copper coins to the church every year as religious taxes...

Fifty copper plates, what can’t he do? Buy candy for his children to eat! Buy beautiful clothes for his wife to wear! Buy meat and cook it back!!

But you asked him to hand over the money to you for free. If you don’t give it, it would be illegal... You are not the emperor!

Taxation is something that can only be done after you can do it. Before you can win the world, you start to treat yourself as emperor. Do you think this is not ridiculous?

After Du Wei came to power, he defeated the Temple of Light in just over a decade. You were not even able to fight a civil war... because no one supports you anymore! His Majesty Heinx!"

"But, but... but serving the goddess. Isn't it what every human should do?"

"Should it? Why should it?"

Chen Daolin laughed: "Goddess? Have you ever seen a goddess? No, you have never seen it! Your former Pope, former Pope, has never seen a goddess for dozens of generations!

No! It can even be said that from the time when the Roland Empire was founded, the Temple of Light became the state religion of the empire. Until today, it has been a thousand years!

Who has ever seen a goddess?

joke!

What does she look like? Beautiful or ugly? Long or short hair? tall or short? Big breasts or big butt?
