All the contract girls want to marry me

After the Big Three were confirmed, Diana began drastic reforms, boldly appointing young bishops who had previously supported her.

She employed centrists and reformists on a large scale and unabashedly suppressed conservatives.

She just plainly said that there is no place for conservatives in the new era.

Faced with Diana's policies that left no room for accommodation, conservatives were once again divided.

Except for a small group of die-hard conservatives, most of the original conservatives became the new centrists.

Rather than saying that they are neutrals, it is better to say that they are spoilers.

Faced with Diana's idea of ​​reforming the power structure of the Holy See, their attitude was "You're right"!

Faced with Diana's desire to re-edit and interpret the canon and put Volume No. 13 into the new canon, their attitude was still "you are right"!

No one dared to oppose Pope Diana.

On the one hand, this is because Diana has the support of the goddess and occupies an absolutely orthodox position. On the other hand, it is because Diana is too ruthless.

Just a few days after Eurysia became Matthew's contractor, Diana closed the net.

She mastered enough intelligence through Bishop Under Armor's Inquisition and Matthew's intelligence system to arrest all the clergy worth burning.

The trial process will continue for some time, but their fate has already been determined.

Those whose crimes are extremely heinous and the people's anger is extremely high will be sentenced to death.

These people will be sent to various places for execution after trial.

Wherever the crime is committed, there will be execution.

Although it was harsh to execute more than three thousand clergy at once, Diana had to do it.

She knew very well that the public's trust in the Holy See had dropped to freezing point.

If there is no surprise, people will be completely disappointed with the Holy See.

The emergence of the Twilight Sect also sounded the alarm for her.

In the field of faith, those who compete with her for believers are not only pagans, but also other heretics who also believe in the Lord of Holy Light.

If the Holy See continues to rot, even if there is no Twilight Sect, there will still be a Dawn Sect.

It has only been a short time since the Church of Light was disbanded, and these people have forgotten about it.

Only by using the courage to scrape the bones and heal the poison, can the decline of the Holy See be reversed.

Diana had full confidence in the Holy See.

Although the masses were disappointed with them, they were not desperate yet.

The Holy Holy See's record of killing the dead lord Rodrigo and saving mankind is there. As long as they don't go too far, believers are still willing to believe in the Holy Light.

On the high tower in the backyard of the Saint Sophia Cathedral, Diana and Matthew stood side by side, watching the prison cars filled with important people slowly drive out of the city gate and rush to the provinces of the empire.

There are an endless stream of prison cars like this these days, and they have become an alternative landscape.

Looking at the long queue of prison cars, Diana was silent for a long time and said softly: "There are 3642 people in total. Isn't it a little too harsh?"

"Did they feel that they were too harsh when digging into the foundations of the Holy See?"

Matthew reminded softly.

Diana nodded, her eyes gradually becoming colder.

These people didn't just turn to crime in the past few days. They should have died long ago. It's just that no one has been around for the past few decades, so they have escaped the punishment they deserve.

Although she could figure this out, Diana could think that her reputation would definitely not get better in the future.

She may not be able to escape the infamy of being called Diana the Butcher or Diana the Bloody.

Just when Diana closed her eyes, Matthew took her into his arms and gave her the warmest embrace.

There were some things he couldn't do for her, but his warm and strong embrace was always open.

Chapter 290

Early summer in May.

The bloodstains in Victory Square have long been cleaned away, but people will never forget the execution ceremony carried out here by the Holy See's Inquisition.

Hundreds of people from the imperial capital, the usually high-spirited bishops and priests, were publicly declared guilty.

As their crimes were announced one by one, the believers' anger reached its peak.

They raised fanatical cries and demanded that these black sheep be burned to death.

The new Pope Diana complied with the name and declared in the name of the goddess that these people were disloyal and dishonest to the Holy See, had collapsed in their faith, used the name of the goddess to collect money for personal gain, bully men and women, and embezzle public and private property.

Then she excommunicated the sinners on the spot and punished them according to their crimes.

People were stunned when they saw hundreds of human-shaped torches lit.

Although the crowd wanted to burn all these people to death, they were a little panicked when they were actually burned.

These people were indeed guilty of heinous crimes and deserved to die, but hearing their screams in the flames, the clergy and believers who were watching were frightened.

No one wants to leave the world in such a warm way.

Both clergy and believers have a new understanding of the new Pope Diana.

This is a person who must not be offended.

She is a [just one], but her justice is based on blood and fire.

If someone stands in front of her, what will be the consequences...

A careful person can spot some details.

For example, these torture racks are not disposable wooden racks, but metal racks that can be reused many times.

This discovery is enough to make those bold enough to think carefully about their future life plans.

After the execution at the stake in the imperial capital, similar dramas were unfolding in all provinces of the empire.

The flames igniting across the country not only represent Diana's determination to strictly enforce the law, but also represent her courage to break with the dark past of the Holy See.

It is obviously unrealistic to expect a fire to completely change the Holy See.

But anyway, this is a good start.

This day was recorded and became known as the Day of Purification in later generations.

After the Purification Day, the Holy See took on a new look. Younger clergy were entrusted with important responsibilities. The liquidation of those who slipped through the net continued, and those who were unworthy of their virtues were also pulled down from high positions.

Of course the old forces will not be so easily captured.

If you can't do it openly, then you'll have to play dirty!

In the past half month, the remaining conservative forces have organized multiple assassinations.

More than a hundred clergy and more devout believers were killed. For a time, everyone was in danger, and some even resigned to protect their safety.

Of course, Diana would not tolerate these people's problems. She sent out her subordinates to vigorously attack the conservatives involved in the assassination.

She directly declared these people as "those despised by the goddess", and everyone was punished.

Just as she was battling wits with the conservatives, Matthew, who had always been her source of courage, was leaving the imperial capital.

The reason for Matthew's departure is simple.

A piece of good news from the survivors of the deep sea made Matthew's heart finally settle.

Jace, who was recommended by Matthew to become the navy commander of the Deep Sea Relics, did not disappoint him.

Although this kid is a playboy, he is not incompetent.

The naval strength of the Deep Sea Relics is not inferior to that of the Goblin United Chamber of Commerce. In addition, their origins are mysterious. The Goblin United Chamber of Commerce does not know much about them, and they have an intelligence advantage.

With the dual advantages of combat power and intelligence, Jace fought steadily. After several months of hard fighting, he finally captured the main naval force of the Goblin United Chamber of Commerce through continuous island hopping attacks.

Through an epic naval battle, the Goblin United Chamber of Commerce's invincible armada became history.

As we all know, the navy called the Armada generally does not end well.

The Goblin United Chamber of Commerce is no exception.

The reason why the Goblin United Chamber of Commerce is called the United Chamber of Commerce is mainly because there is more than one force within them.

Within the United Chamber of Commerce, it is composed of large and small fortunes and families.

Among them, the four most powerful chaebols are the Blackwater Chaebol, the Black Gold Chaebol, the Ruby Chaebol and the Three-Eyed Chaebol.

The four major chaebols each own a fleet in the navy according to their investment ratio.

These four fleets are not subordinate to each other, and they restrain each other to prevent one of them from becoming bigger.

This kind of mutually constrained fleet will not have any problems when facing weak enemies, but facing the more powerful Deep Sea Legacy Fleet, they are naturally no match.

If Master Jace hadn't strictly followed Matthew's advice and chosen a safe approach, the goblins' defeat might have come earlier.

From April 23th to April [-]rd, the Poseidon Fleet of the Deep Sea Relics basically annihilated the main force of the Goblin United Fleet after five consecutive naval battles.

After receiving the good news, Matthew was overjoyed but also had to face new challenges.

The Abyssal Relic has made good on his promise, now it's his turn.

Of course he doesn't mind helping the Deep Sea survivors get the Poseidon inheritance. His only worry is that Poseidon is still alive.

Matthew didn't know in what form Poseidon was alive, but he knew that the second-generation God-King was not only alive, but was also trying hard to revive.

Poseidon selects some of the sacrifices from the sacrifice rituals of the deep sea survivors that lasted for thousands of years to replenish himself with energy.

Matthew called Zero, who had always been bored, to list all the sacrifices chosen by Poseidon.

He conducted an in-depth analysis of the identity, age, strength, potential and other aspects of these sacrificers.

He put the mathematical knowledge he learned before time travel to the extreme.

In this process, Surante also contributed a lot as his right-hand man.

He and Surante read through a large amount of information and documents, listened to Zero's detailed report, carefully analyzed and compared the sacrifices chosen by Poseidon, and finally came to a conclusion.

irregular.

I don’t know if Poseidon is willful or for other reasons. His choice of sacrifice seems to be completely random.

This is a very absurd result.

This result made Matthew feel that his intelligence was insulted.

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

This is the majestic Poseidon. Even if he loses almost all his power, even if he is trapped under the deep sea for 10 years, he is still the second generation God King!

How could he be so confused?

But the fact is here. Unless Poseidon is mentally abnormal, there is no way to explain it.

Is Poseidon mentally ill?

Matthew was lost in thought, is this really possible?

After a long night of deliberation, Matthew made a decision.

Go to Poseidon Temple in person to find out.

Although Diana and others were a little worried, they did not stop Matthew.

If he were the Poseidon at his peak, he might be able to kill Matthew with just one look.

But can the current Poseidon have one ten thousandth of the fighting power of his peak?

If he really had this ability, would he still be hiding like this pitifully under the deep sea picking up some garbage to eat?

Poseidon's power has not recovered, this is the best time to deal with him.

He was once the God King, and even if his power was only a small part of his recovery, it would still be enough to dominate the material plane.

Matthew decided to take Surante, Shirley and Andrenee with him.

Others either have something to do (Diana, Wendy, Aisanya, etc.), or their attributes are not suitable for deep-sea combat (Fire Witch, Lena, Mirana, etc.).

He took everyone he could take with him.

Just the night before Matthew was about to leave, an unexpected figure appeared at his door.
