Chapter 165: Advance the Selection of the Son of God
The speed of information transmission among extraordinary people is very fast.
Entering dreams, long-distance spiritual communication, special props that can synchronize text, and even newspapers that update information in real time...
The existence of various means has made the information exchange among the extraordinary people in this world comparable to that in the prosperous Internet era, and instant messaging has even shown signs of emerging.
But in comparison, the control over public opinion is not that strong, and events with serious impacts spread much faster than ordinary news.
Within ten minutes, the news about the disaster at the Vatican headquarters reached the remote St. Marian College.
This news was also sensational for people in the college.
But after the shock, people's emotions became somewhat complicated.
Some were like some people outside, filled with righteous indignation, cursing hell, while others, after worrying about the future, couldn't help laughing for some reason.
"It is said that apart from some unlucky people, no civilians outside the headquarters were affected."
"So, only a group of senior executives died?"
"That's good..."
People have different attitudes towards things depending on their position.
The archangels who know more about the secrets will be furious, and people who have lost their sense of security will panic and become uneasy.
Devout believers cannot help but doubt life.
Although the remnants of the Holy Order in the academy are no longer oppressed by the upper echelons, the humiliation they have suffered as prisoners for many years is not so easy to dispel.
At the same time, due to the suppression, it can be said that there are no members of the remnant party serving in the headquarters.
So right now, there are more people who are gloating than those who are grieving.
A few people were even excited.
Unlike others, the remnants are very practical in their considerations.
Therefore, they generally do not feel any sense of collapsed faith regarding this matter.
Although the destruction of the Vatican headquarters was a cause for concern, hadn't the angels already shown their tracks? If the human world could not withstand the attack of the devil of hell, would the kingdom of heaven be indifferent?
So, if the sky falls, there are tall people holding it up. What’s there to be afraid of?
As for saying that God is not omniscient and omnipotent?
God is not omniscient and omnipotent, otherwise why would he abandon them, his followers, for so many years without caring about them? In short, this matter is not only not terrible, but it is actually very beneficial to the remnants of the party.
Even if all the top leaders died, the evangelical church would not be fundamentally shaken.
Countless years of religious order will allow others to quickly fill the vacancies in a short period of time.
What is this? This is an opportunity! There are only so many positions, and now there is a large vacancy. For ambitious people, it is a huge surprise!
"The latest news is that the rift connecting to Hell has been closed, but the number of casualties and losses caused by the disaster has not yet been counted."
An emergency meeting was held in a conference room of the college. The middle-aged female dean who presided over the meeting was speaking in a deep voice.
Andy, who has already graduated, is now considered a specially appointed person in the college, so he was also invited here.
Of course he would not comment on this, but just listened quietly, as if it was none of his business.
The college leaders around them obviously did not realize that the real planner of this disaster was sitting among them.
"Turbulence is inevitable. Nearly a hundred high-ranking members of the church come from all over the world, and each of them has a network of connections behind them. It can be said that they are the backbone of maintaining secular religious affairs, and now..."
It is called a meeting, but in fact it is to explain clearly the current situation and what should be done after the disaster, so a lot of things are said very straightforwardly.
However, although his tone seemed heavy, there was no trace of pain on the dean's face. Instead, he looked tense the entire time, as if he was afraid of laughing out loud by accident.
Like some students who gloated over other people's misfortunes, she had no idea what dangers were hidden behind this disaster, and what it meant for the Kingdom of Heaven.
She only knew that after this incident, regardless of whether he was directly responsible or not, the current Pope would have no chance of keeping his position.
In other words, the position of Pope will soon be vacant!
Many high-level officials were killed or injured, but the core member of their remnant party, the old grandfather of the female secretary, survived.
As a cardinal, he has a chance to run for the new Pope.
And, the chances are great.
The reason is very simple, it's because of the existence of Andy, a dependent.
Andy is a member of the remnant party. Andy has the support of the archangel behind him, which is roughly equivalent to the fact that the remnant party has an archangel behind it.
In the face of sudden disasters and the terrifying threat of hell, the church must hope to deepen its connection with heaven.
In this case, the secretary's "grandfather" who has a background in the remnant party is very competitive! This is an unimaginable surprise.
You know, not long ago, the remnants were still hiding in this dark forest, barely surviving like zombies, and no one knew when they would be able to see the light.
How long has it been?
There was actually an opportunity to control the church and support one of his own to become the Pope...
"On the other hand, in the face of Hell's recent brutal offensive, we need to propose to the College of Cardinals to hold some events that can inspire people and strengthen the faith of believers in advance."
When the female dean said this, her tone was meaningful.
"For example, the selection of the Holy Son."
"Why does the selection have to wait six years? Is it feasible by the end of this year or the end of next year?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
This made everyone else in the conference room look at Andy.
Andy is a dependent, and this is known not only to the people at St. Marian's College but also to the higher-ups in the church.
What does this identity mean? If Andy had not stayed in the deserted academy, if the archangel had not been watching him, he would have been surrounded by a group of flatterers.
In fact, there are actually quite a few people of this kind nowadays.
They are not just random people, but cardinals from top families and even the headquarters.
Andy himself may not be aware of this, but in recent times, they, a group of college mentors, have been asked in roundabout ways by people outside about things related to Andy.
Find out if he has graduated, where he is going after graduation, what plans he has, whether he is married or not...
Among them, the reserve saints attach the most importance to Andy's existence.
Or rather, nervous.
Because if Andy intends to be the Son of God, then they must have no hope at all! And does Andy intend to be the Son of God?
It's obvious.
Although he was not well-known among the public, had only been in the church for a short time and had little experience, he did not meet the requirements at all.
But if he wanted to forcefully fight for the position of the Holy Son, who would dare to compete with him? So, it would not be a surprise if Andy became the Holy Son.
The only obstacle is time.
It is now the end of 1994, and 2000 is the normal time for selecting the Son of God.
This period of time may not seem long, but for Andy, who is blessed by the archangel, it is not short either.
However, the time for selecting the Son of God is strictly regulated, as it involves religious laws and order and cannot be easily changed.
But now, this sudden disaster has plunged the evangelical church into severe turmoil.
Some things that cannot be changed can naturally be tried to be loosened.
"Of course, the most important thing at the moment is to appease the surrounding families."
“Although we are a school, not a…”
The female dean sitting at the head of the conference room was still talking incessantly, not noticing that a slender blond figure had quietly appeared beside Andy.
"The connection between heaven and the human world has been weakened to a certain extent."
Of course it was Adanelle.
As she said this, she looked at Andy with doubt in her eyes.
"God has been alarmed, and He may keep an eye on the situation in the human world for a long time..."
"Why are you doing this? Aren't you afraid that He will find out something is wrong?"
