“Praise is meaningless without the freedom to criticize.”

"We are not afraid of public opinion, but are we afraid of internal evaluation?"

"If the leader does not agree, I am willing to accept the punishment."

If it were Diana three years ago, she would probably have been infected by Ventola's words and firm gaze, and would have impulsively stood up and agreed to fight alongside them.

But now Diana is much more mature.

Faced with Ventola's impassioned remarks, Diana's first thought was what does this discipline priest want?

Of course politicians shout slogans, but they do not shout slogans to deceive themselves, but to hope that others will believe them.

It was obvious that Mr. Ventola was not telling any lies, but he was subtly trying to induce Diana.

Treat her as a pawn that can be easily exploited?His heart can be killed.

Diana thought silently.

She believed that Ventola had the courage and ability to fight against the corrupt forces of the Holy See, but what about after victory?

Diana thought to herself, if Eugene, Julius, Ulrich and Cochon were replaced by Alphonse, Aramis and Ventola, would the Holy See be able to change?

She doesn't think so.

Maybe it will be a little better when they first take office, but once they are in power, history will ruthlessly repeat itself.

Even if they were replaced, nothing would change.

Is the reason why they hate the corruption of the Holy See really because of how sincere their belief in the goddess is?

Diana suddenly felt a little tired.

She asked calmly: "What do you want?"

"We want the Holy See to get back on track."

"Speak in human language that I can understand." Diana interrupted unceremoniously.

"Mr. Ventola, there are no outsiders here, it doesn't have to be like this."

Faced with Diana's interruption, Ventola's face turned slightly red. He finally realized that the girl in front of him who looked like a saint was not simple.

At least he's not as silly as many people think.

She's fair-skinned, sure, but she's not silly or sweet.

Ventola looked around and looked at the furnishings in the room, thinking silently, maybe it was sweet, but that was just her performance when she was the seventh princess.

Looking at Ventola's eyes, Diana certainly knew what this guy was thinking.

She didn't bother to explain.

Since everyone thinks she is Matthew's seventh princess, let's just think so.

It just so happened that she could still borrow Matthew's light.

It was enough that the goddess of her innocence could see it.

She suddenly felt a little tired and didn't want to talk nonsense with these mediocre people.

She raised her hand and said decisively: "If the three of you don't make an offer, I have no interest in the transaction!"

Ventola's expression froze.

This is indeed a transaction, but it must be done under the banner of faith.

How can we directly say that this is a transaction?

But Diana had already said so, and they had no choice but to follow Diana's wishes.

He hesitated for a moment, bit his lip and said seriously:

"My Lord, I was sent to the Oberwald Territory as a bishop five years ago. During my tenure, I expanded the diocese, developed 30 believers, defeated the attacks of the heretics on us, and established a church with more than 3000 people relying entirely on local taxes. [-] elite skitarii!"

"My work achievements are obvious to all. Among the bishops who were sent abroad during the same period, apart from you and Bishop Klein, my achievements ranked third."

He paused for a moment and said loudly: "You and Bishop Klein are much better than me in ability, and I am convinced that we are behind you. But in this five-year comprehensive evaluation, my overall ranking is only second to last. I Not convinced!"

Diana asked curiously: "Who is the last one?"

Ventola hesitated for a moment before giving the answer, "It's the archbishop of Black Sheep Parish. His parish happens to be within the jurisdiction of the Knights of Walder."

He didn't say the rest of the words, but the meaning was very clear. People have been poached by your knights. Is the Black Sheep Archbishop going to dig people out from the cracks in the rocks?

Diana suddenly realized.

This Black Sheep Bishop is really an unlucky guy.

She asked seriously: "How is Bishop Black Sheep's ability compared to yours?"

Ventola wanted to say that although it was very good, it was inferior to me, but the words stopped abruptly.

Could this be what Diana wanted to do to test his mettle?

The roses linger in your hands when you give them away, so it’s better to say more kind words.

Although the Archbishop of Black Sheep has only an average personal relationship with him, he is also a leader among the younger generation of bishops. Moreover, the Black Sheep Diocese is very close to the Ward Knights, so Captain Diana must have met this unlucky bishop.

In a flash of lightning, he had a profound enlightenment.

Although Diana did not express her position, at least she did not object to his words.If Diana really didn't want to cooperate with him, she would have beaten him out after hearing his violent remarks.

Sometimes not saying a word is worth a thousand words.

Ventola was very smart. This time he guessed correctly, and Diana was very satisfied with his answer.

But Diana also knew that this did not mean that Ventola had a broad mind. At most, it showed that he had keen observation.

Of course, keen observation is also an excellent quality and deserves praise.

Facing Diana's indifferent gaze, Ventola knew that he had to take a stand, so he had no choice but to grit his teeth and fight.

"Captain, since I have this ability, I should naturally share more pressure for the organization."

"If there are people who are more capable than me, I fully support it. But if those people are not as capable as me but rely on behind-the-scenes operations to get there, I won't accept it."

"Captain, what do you think?"

Diana nodded in agreement.

Ventola's ability to say such things shows that he is quite honest.

If he even kept these words secret, Diana wouldn't bother to say anything more to him.

She gestured for Ventola to sit down, and then turned her attention to the other two people.

With the example of Ventola, they also have more bachelors, which directly shows that mediocrity within the Holy See occupies high positions and hinders the upward passage of capable people.

Aramis said directly: "Captain, the Lord of Holy Light is eternal, but the Holy See is not. It has only been a short time since the Church of Light was thrown into the garbage, and it has been forgotten by everyone!"

When Aramis mentioned the Church of Light, Ventola and Alphonse's expressions changed.

The Church of Light was a super religious organization before the emergence of the Holy See. In its heyday, it spread across the entire continent, with hundreds of millions of fanatical believers and millions of regular troops. Its combat power was so strong that even the three major empires had to respect it.

They even have more than seven demigod-level experts, and they try to create gods in the human world by evading the influence of the Lord of Holy Light.

Such a powerful organization was ultimately destroyed by its own madness.

Compared with the Church of Light back then, the current Holy See is just a younger brother within a younger brother.During the heyday of the Church of Light, even shamans had to respect the Lord of Holy Light as an equally worshiped god.

It is because the Church of Light has such a glorious past that this name is a taboo name that is forbidden to be mentioned by the Holy See.

Ventola was about to stop Aramis, but Diana interrupted him.

"If we keep silent about it, will the traces of the Light Church's past existence disappear?"

"The teacher who remembers the past and the future, let him speak."

Aramis was very curious about the past events of the Church of Light and had made great efforts to research it, but no one had ever been able to discuss these things with him.

Now that Diana allowed him to speak, he naturally wanted to speak freely.

Having said it all, there is no point in being a shrinking bastard now, it is better to take a gamble!

Aramis starts from the last 30 years before the destruction of the Church of Light.

During that time, the seven powerful demigods of the Church of Light had a dispute.

One group believes that their ability to achieve such achievements comes from the guidance of the Lord of Holy Light. Since they are already at the pinnacle of human power, why should they pursue things that are not human.

Anyway, they have become demigods. As long as they do good deeds for the goddess, they can gain eternal life and finally transcend.

They launched the [Holy Spring Advent Plan] to destroy all other religions, unify the ideological realm of this plane, and pave the way for the goddess to come to the world.

The other group believes that gods are no nobler than humans. They believe that the power of faith can be reserved for the goddess, and they can collect the power of faith in the world in the name of the goddess to create gods belonging to the Church of Light.

They launched the [Guangming Peak Project] to create a god of light in the human world.

千".!寻,!!!小:'说.资.,;源.群?,,.2!?',5?,!,5?!!!5;:::9?.:,5'3,.':0.;0  他们认为圣光之主在神界呆着就好,没必要来到人间。

It has to be said that the ideas of both groups are crazy, but the crazy directions are different.

The ratio of strong demigods between these two factions is exactly 3:3, and the attitude of the last neutral demigod veteran is crucial.

Both factions are turning their attention to the centrist, hoping that he will cast a crucial vote.

At the final ruling meeting, the neutral elder known as the Saint of Life proposed a surprising idea to dissolve the Church of Light.

This idea confused everyone.

They never expected that the neutral faction, which originally seemed to be the most moderate, would actually want to overturn the table.

As a result, the two factions joined forces to kill the only neutral faction.

The reputation of this neutral Saint of Light in the Church of Light is so high that even the super boss cannot bear the chain reaction of killing her.

This sudden killing changed the Church of Light.

The last 30 years of the church's existence were 30 years of killing and turmoil.

The 30 years when the Church of Light perished in madness will be called the 30 years of darkness in later generations.

People think that these 30 years are the 30 years of losing light.

In the past 30 years, hundreds of millions of people have died across the continent. These innocent souls refused to enter the underworld. Their stay in the human world caused the tragedy of the undead monarch harming the human world, and once again caused hundreds of years of turmoil.

In the end, Rodrigo, the most powerful undead monarch, was pacified by the Holy See, which finally brought an end to this matter.

Although Diana also knew about the Church of Light and the Saint of Light, and she had been working towards the Saint of Light for a period of time, this was the first time she had heard of such a clear context.

Compared to Ventola, who had a stronger desire for power, Diana felt that people like Aramis were more like devout believers.

After talking about Rodrigo's death, Aramis said softly: "Strictly speaking, our Holy See is the inheritor of the Church of Light, and the sacred magic we use to defeat the undead monarch comes from the Church of Light."

"The Holy See's attempt to cover up the existence of the Church of Light and even stigmatize it is simply ridiculous."

"If we don't come from light, how can we come from darkness?"

Upon hearing Aramis's words, the corners of Diana's mouth raised slightly.

Who says the Holy Light cannot come from darkness?

She stretched out her hands, the palm of her left hand was filled with milky white holy light, and the palm of her right hand was filled with a dead black light.

Seeing the white holy light and black black light, the expressions of the three people changed drastically.

It’s not surprising that Diana can control the Holy Light, but why can she control the Black Light?

The three of them were so panicked that they almost wanted to flee. However, they knew that Diana's current strength was far beyond their imagination, and it would be effortless to kill them.

If you run away now, you will definitely die.

Seeing the three people's expressions as if they had seen a ghost, Diana raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and the light in her hands simultaneously decomposed into colorful lights.

Under the stunned gazes of the three people, the seven-colored light merged into one again.

But this time the original holy light turned into black light, and the original black light turned into holy light.

Looking at the three people who were stunned, Diana's voice was particularly ethereal.

"When the Church of Light existed, there was another organization with the same name as him called the Church of Darkness."

The expressions of the three people changed drastically and they almost fainted.

If the name of the Church of Light is taboo, then the name of the Church of Darkness is absolutely taboo.

Anyone who dares to mention this unmentionable name will be expelled from the Holy See, or directly burned at the stake.
