Working Prophet.

Chapter 284

Herodotus was a little surprised when he heard the words, "The disciples did not participate in the final vote that day, but followed the order of the church."

"I know, I know... the punishment is just for the people below to see. I and several other high priests have seen how diligent you have been all these years, but now the church is in trouble, and someone must Make some sacrifices."

"Do you want me to take this matter down?"

"It's not just me, several other priests also have the same opinion. Of course, it's not your fault. We all know this, but the current situation can only wrong you first. We will take the position of high priest for you." Continue to keep it, and you can come back after the limelight passes."

High Priest Reeves tried his best to keep his tone gentle and sincere, but then he saw his disciple burst out laughing.

This is undoubtedly very rude, and a look of displeasure appeared on the face of the old priest.

"What's so funny about that?"

"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that priestess named Adele, you must have told her the same way back then. So have you helped her restore her reputation now?"

High Priest Reeves's expression gradually became gloomy upon hearing the words, "You have the nerve to say, wasn't it your bad idea that time, you said you wanted to find a young priest to go to Merlin to compete in medical skills, and if you win, you can hit the weekend The momentum of teaching is not a loss if you lose, but the result..."

"I didn't say to use the holy coffin." Herodotus shrugged, "It was because you went too far that Merlin caught you."

"You can say whatever you want, but that time I went out and contacted several high priests to save you. In the end, I pushed the disciple of High Priest Martina to top the tank."

The patience of the High Priest Reeves was almost exhausted, he warned, "Don't forget who brought you to this position today, since I can let you come up, of course I can let you go down.

"Don't think that your wings will be hard after becoming the high priest. I have sat in this position for more than 100 years than you. The church is full of my allies and disciples. No one is good for those who oppose me. end."

"It's because the church is full of people who are like teachers, so they can't deal with Merlin and his weekend teaching." Herodotus said softly.

"What did you say?!" High Priest Reeves suspected that there was something wrong with his ears, otherwise why would his always docile and well-behaved disciple dare to say such things to him.

But what he didn't expect was still to come, Herodotus' words became more and more outrageous.

"Teacher, you and your friends are like moths, clinging to the big tree of Silver Moon Church, they are busy fighting for power and profit every day, each of them is fat and fat, racking their brains to think about how to get something for themselves. I can get more benefits, but no one cares about how to make the big tree under me grow better!"

"Bastard, how did you talk to the teacher!" High Priest Reeves couldn't help being furious when he heard this, he pointed at Herodotus' nose and said, "Do you think I don't know about your little tricks in private, you are really greedy The guy is right for you!

"I should have listened to High Priest Martina early in the morning, and don't let a guy like you who is superficial and hidden behind become a high priest!"

"But teacher, you still couldn't help it, didn't you, because obedient dogs like me are hard to find." Herodotus smiled slightly, "As I said, teacher, between the interests of the church and yourself, you always would choose the latter."

"Hmph, since some dogs can't get enough to feed, I'll just change another one." High Priest Reeves said coldly
"It's a shame the dog has now grown its own teeth and claws."

"Hehe, do you think I didn't guard against you? It was my idea to put you in charge of the guard team. Once you are in the darkness, you can only live in the darkness forever, and other people will avoid you. You become How many allies has the high priest made over the years, and how many confidants do he have?"

"I don't have any allies." Herodotus shook his head.

"Then what do you use to fight me?" High Priest Reeves sneered.

"The guard," replied the young high priest, "I have the guard."

The smile on High Priest Reeves' face froze, "Are you crazy? The guards are a sharp blade used to protect the church, and they cannot be swung at their own people."

"It was not possible before, but now it is possible after being trained by me." Herodotus said leisurely, "It is all thanks to the teacher that you gave me this army."

After a pause, the young priest continued, "Teacher, do you know what the biggest problem is for big men like you? You chase and worship power, and you have been immersed in power for so long that your eyes You can only see power, so you take power as the source of all power.

"But you are ignoring the most basic and purest power - that is violence.

"Merlin wouldn't make such a low-level mistake. He formed his own army just half a year after he established the sect. Admit it, teacher, you are really far behind him. It is impossible to win the weekend with this way." Taught."

The old priest thought of something, his face became very ugly, but he still insisted, "We have millions of believers."

"They can also betray Pithia and convert to Saturday like the new head of the Arias family."

"Then what can you do?"

"Build our own army, a real army, instead of relying on those noble lords who are like grass on the wall. Only in this way can we truly defeat Merlin and his Shuangxiu religion." Herodotus said seriously.

"You will destroy the Silver Moon Church! Why do you think we can stand here for thousands of years? Not forming an army is our commitment to the major families in the western region, and it is also our foundation." High Priest Reeves said loudly road.

"At one time and another, now we have millions of believers all over the western region. Even if those nobles are dissatisfied with us, they can't join forces to attack us. Besides... don't we even have excuses now?"

The old priest's eyes widened, his face was full of shock, "Herodotus, you... you bastard! Did you do it on purpose to make the church embarrass itself again and again in the green field, and lose all face, you, hello How dare you dare to do this?!"

"It's time to make a change." The young priest said solemnly, "I received an oracle from the goddess. She was very distressed by the current situation of the church, so she ordered me to save everyone and clean up the moths on the trees. To make the sacred tree shine again is the mission she entrusted to me."

After Herodotus finished speaking, he took a deep breath and pulled out the knife from his waist.
