Douluo: Become the Pope of Destiny in the Unrivaled World

Chapter 199: The Sun and the Moon Fall, the Stars Shine, and the Kings Rise
"Once the emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire dies, the royal family dispute within the Sun-Moon Empire will break out in full swing."

"Once this happens, the world's structure will change once again. This is something our Destiny Church cannot stop."

The Church of Destiny now has the power to destroy an empire, but it is probably impossible for it to prevent the destruction of an empire.

The civil strife in the Sun-Moon Empire has become permanent. Changing all this is not something that can be accomplished with just a few words.

Destruction is always easier than creation. No one can save the Sun-Moon Empire from this situation.

"So, are we going to watch the world fall into chaos?"

"I'm afraid this is not a good thing for our Destiny Church, right?"

Ye Mu didn't think this was a good thing. If the Sun-Moon Empire was still the Sun-Moon Empire, the enemy of their Destiny Church would only be the Sun-Moon Empire.

But...if the Sun-Moon Empire splits, then the enemies of the Church of Destiny will become the many rebellious royal families and nobles, and even special forces such as the Holy Spirit Church.

The world is so small, and the Sun-Moon Empire is right there, so he can't escape at all.

But if the Sun-Moon Empire was destroyed, the forces and people that their Heavenly Mandate Church would need to deal with would increase, and this kind of variable would be quite troublesome.

"For us, it's not a good thing, but it's not a bad thing either."

"Overall, after this civil strife, the Sun-Moon Empire will fall into a period of turmoil and weakness."

"But it's a pity that our Heavenly Fate Church cannot take advantage of this opportunity to launch an attack on the entire Sun-Moon Empire."

"Even if we have the power to defeat the Sun-Moon Empire now, the personnel we have now are not enough to manage the Sun-Moon Empire."

"Another point is that our Sun-Moon Empire is too far away from our sphere of influence and major cities."

Now, most of the influence and cities of the Church of Destiny are concentrated in the north of the Tianhun Empire and the northern port cities of the Douling Empire.

There are also many important branches located within the four major empires.

This leads to a very troublesome point. Once the war starts, the Church of Destiny will definitely lose some areas.

The troops of Destiny cannot be stationed in all cities. When the war breaks out, their Destiny Church will need to make a choice.

They should decide which areas to abandon and where to gather their troops.

Because of this, the Church of Destiny cannot even fully control its own territory, let alone attack the Sun-Moon Empire.

Once a full-scale attack is launched on the Sun-Moon Empire, with the strength of the Church of Destiny, it will most likely be able to defeat the Sun-Moon Empire.

But if the situation really came to that, the entire Sun-Moon Empire, the northern Tianhun Empire, and the northern port cities of the Douling Empire.

Their personnel deployment would be very loose. Perhaps originally there was a small order of knights stationed in a city, but after such dispersion there would probably only be one small team left.

I would like to ask, with only a small team of knights, how can we defend our city from attacks by the armies of the other three empires?

Isn't this funny? The Church of Destiny cannot make up for such a simple problem in terms of numbers.

"Now it has come to the final, most critical moment. All factions of the Sun-Moon Empire have lined up, from the nobles to the military, and even the ninth-level soul masters are involved."

"Now everyone is waiting, waiting for the moment when the Emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire breathes his last."

"As long as an emperor dies, a new emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire will be born in just one night." "What will happen in the end? Only God knows."

Originally, the emperor was in good health and had no problem living for another ten years.

But... this emperor was very unlucky to become one of the people infected with the Black Death.

In this plague that swept across the entire continent, even the emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire could not avoid being infected by the plague.

His health was not very good to begin with, and due to years of hard work, his physical and mental state was very bad.

At the same time, he discovered that he was infected with the plague relatively late. If he had discovered that he was infected with the plague earlier and gone to the Church of Destiny to seek help, perhaps he could have been cured.

But unfortunately, he was not so lucky. The moment his body was infected with the plague, it was heading towards an unpredictable future.

Death is the final outcome of the emperor. After his death, the struggle for the imperial power of the Sun-Moon Empire will begin.

The person who survives at the end will become the final winner of the Sun-Moon Empire and the new emperor of the Sun-Moon Empire.

"So are we really not going to do anything this time?"

"This is not the attitude of our Destiny Church."

Ye Mu felt that Zofia was hiding something from her. It was impossible for their Destiny Church to have this attitude towards such a big thing.

There must be something going on. Could it be that Ainmade is secretly acting again?
"It's a pity that we really can't do anything this time. We in the Church of Heavenly Destiny are short of manpower. We have finally taken over so many cities in four years."

"We are not short of top combat power, but we don't have many real combatants."

"Totaling the Templars and levies from various regions and cities, our current number is only 200,000."

"Almost every one of the four great empires has an army of one million. Compared to our army of 200,000, the number is still too small."

The quality of the army of the Church of Heaven's Mandate soldiers far exceeds that of the other four empires.

However, there is a big difference between war and fighting. Normally, these top masters can eliminate all enemies by themselves.

But once they really get on the battlefield, these 200,000 elite soldiers may be exhausted to death by the million-strong army.

This is the cruelty of war. No matter how elite you are, each of them is a skilled fighter picked from hundreds.

Once on the battlefield, even the so-called elite can easily become one of the victims of war.

This is war. War is a huge meat grinder. Once you get into it, you are completely finished.

"So, how long do we have to wait?"

Ye Mu is not a professional military commander and she is not responsible for military affairs. Zofia is the most authoritative person in this matter.

"...I don't know the answer to this question either. If we send all the believers of the Church of Heaven's Fate into the battlefield, we will have a combat force of millions."

"But these believers are too weak. Most of them are ordinary people and have never participated in a battle, let alone a meat grinder like war."
