Happy people from Blue Star

Chapter 625 The campaign begins

On the second day, the Pope announced the list of candidates for the election of cardinal archbishop.

As expected, it directly caused an uproar.

It is not unusual for all male red archbishops to stand for election, but it is somewhat surprising for the Saint of Light to stand for election.

After all, since the establishment of the Church of Light, there has never been a female pope.

Besides, this thing is a bit 'abnormal'.

After all, in almost everyone's intuitive mind, the Pope should be male.

There was an uproar in the Church of Light, but Sharon Deckard's home was peaceful.

Karina lives here now. She learns to make pastries every day and makes cakes for Hardy and Ryan in the future.

As a 'test' subject, Sharon has eaten a lot of desserts in the past few days.

As soon as she came in and saw Karina and the pastries on the table, she shook her head helplessly and said, "It's going to be a big commotion outside, but it's good for you to hide here and be at ease."

"You used the wrong word, they are the ones who are anxious!"

"Is that something I can learn casually?" Sharon rolled her eyes angrily: "If I have the time to study, wouldn't it be better for me to practice more physical skills!"

Of course, most women practice this just to maintain their figure.

Karina's eyes widened, confused: "Why?"

The so-called overkill.

Karina looked at her speechlessly.

Karina smiled, she actually knows body art.

There is a reason why she has such a good figure.

Karina smiled: "I'm not in a hurry anyway, it's them who are."

"It's okay. Among the high-level magical arts, isn't there a form-changing technique? Go and learn it." Karina said with a smile.

In French, the pronouns for men and women are different, and you can tell it at first glance.

Lapis smiled and said: "Holy girl, your mind is still too bright. I can actually understand their thoughts. If I were not with you, I would be like this too."

At that moment, there was a knock on the door. The maid opened the door and found that the person standing outside was Lapis.

"Still do not understand!"

She is a woman, and as a woman, if she ascends to the position of pope, wouldn't it be a very exciting thing for all the nuns?
Lapis sat down: "They are jealous of you."

Karina was a little confused: "Them? Who is against me?"

It is also an introductory skill for advanced swordsmanship - unicorn body swordsmanship.

Body art is actually something similar to yoga, which was passed down from the elves.

She looked at the girl who brought out another plate of exquisite pastries and sighed: "If I keep eating like this, I will become a fat woman."

"Most of the nuns!"

"Jealousy is a woman's most straightforward and strongest emotion." Lapis explained: "They are jealous of your beauty, your figure, your talent, and your identity. Now... they I’m even more jealous that you can compete with men.”

Karina sighed helplessly.

She grew up with Hardy and Lane, and actually had no other female friends.

In fact, she didn't know much about the women's personalities.

Lapis looked at Karina's confused look and said, "But this is good. At least you don't have the common problems of most women. This way you are more suitable for becoming a superior."

Sharon, who was sitting next to her, smiled and said, "So how supportive are the male pastors of Karina?"

"On the contrary, it's better. They don't seem to be too annoying." Lapis smiled: "They are just a little uncomfortable, but they did not show strong opposition."

Sharon blinked her beautiful eyes and sighed: "So, Karina's chances of winning are naturally not great." "Of course not. Almost all the nuns are against her." Lapis spread her hands and made a helpless gesture: "The men's attitude towards her is also quite ambiguous. Her chances of winning are almost non-existent!"

Sharon sighed.

Lapis continued to look at Karina: "So, do you want to give speeches and lobby?"

Karina shook her head: "No need. Before Hardy left, he said that after we start the campaign, nothing we do will have much effect. On the contrary, if we do nothing, we can paralyze our competitors."

"Then when did he get here?"

Upon hearing Hardy's name, Lapis' eyes visibly lit up.

The same goes for Sharon next to her.

Karina looked at the other party's expression and smiled: "Actually, Archbishop Lapis is here to inquire about Hadi."

Lapis blushed a little, but did not refute.

She was once a very career-minded woman and always believed that the love between men and women and the affairs between men and women were just a waste of life and meaningless.

But after experiencing the kindness of men, she understood why many strong women end up trapped by love.

Karina laughed: "On the most important day, he will appear."

When Lapis and Sharon heard this, their eyes were filled with anticipation.

In the following days, Saint Karina did not make any campaign moves.

At first, the other archbishops thought she had some special plan, but as the election day approached, she still made no move.

Then they all breathed a sigh of relief and went to deal with other gay archbishops.

The Pope even sent someone over to ask about the situation in detail several times and asked Karina why she did something.

Karina didn't answer or pay attention.

This caused the Pope to sigh deeply in the temple: "Maybe the Saint was frightened by Goebbels' words."

In fact, the Pope didn't really think Karina could succeed in the election at first. After all, Karina's foundation in the Holy See was too weak.

He just hoped that the appearance of the Saint would bring about the slightest change in the already stagnant and increasingly degenerate Church of Light.

After this hope was shattered, the old pope's complexion became obviously worse.

Twenty days passed quickly.

This day is the day when the new pope is born.

Everyone in the Church of Light gathered in the square in front of the temple.

The eleven candidates all stood on a high platform.

In front of them, there was a white crystal.

This is the 'count'.

Karina stood on the high platform, and the other eleven male cardinals obviously did not have the same style of painting.

The others are all men, and they are all middle-aged or elderly.

Only she is a young girl, and very, very beautiful.

Just standing there can attract everyone's attention.

In the past twenty days, more than a dozen candidates have been fighting openly and secretly, each with their own interests... In fact, the winner has already been decided. Now, standing here, I just want to find a decent way to exit.

When the old pope appeared on the high platform, there were excited cheers below.

The old pope glanced at Karina with hatred and helplessly shook his head.

"Now the election officially begins." The Pope hunched over and used the magic of amplification to speak below: "Inject your light power into the light stone in front of the candidates."
