I created the Bureau of Anomaly Control

West Federation, inside a secret room.

"Do you have anything to say?" Raffin tilted his head slightly, his eyes coldly staring at the old man sitting across from him.

The seventy-year-old Chief Justice of the Court of Judgment faced the Pope's anger with ease, took a sip of tea, and then revealed an innocent expression:

"They wouldn't let me tell you."

Raffin narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

"So you hid it from me and let Ivana participate in this kind of thing? Haven't you seen how insidious and cunning the Federation is? If they can't beat her on the battlefield, they'll probably use all kinds of tricks to plot against her."

The Chief Justice said in a comforting tone:

"They won't do that. Shenxiao is already trapped. They won't risk offending you to kill Ivana. Even if she loses, it's not a bad thing. At worst, she'll learn some experience. There's nothing to worry about."

Raffin said with a cold expression:

"You overestimate the Federation. They may not be that smart. Those who can see further among them naturally know what to do is better for both of us, but the Federation is not the embodiment of those few people's will. It's a huge, bloated machine. If you saw through their operating logic like I did, you wouldn't say such stupid things."

The Chief Justice of the Court of Judgment did not react to his evaluation:

"That's why you're the Pope. I really can't do what you can do, but that doesn't affect my opinion. You're just too worried about her, and you're blinded by your own feelings. My judgment is more accurate on this matter."

Raffin retorted with a solemn expression:

"Is that so? You think you know what I'm thinking? She's the most talented young person in the Church, and most likely the only genius in the last two hundred years besides me. As long as I want, I can promote her to Tier 5 within thirty years, then we'll have a total of three Tier 5 ability users."

"And to be honest, if she can advance to Tier 5, she will definitely be stronger than you, but you pushed her into the fire pit."

The Chief Justice said calmly:

"What you said is the truth, but so is what I said."

Raffin sneered:

"You mean I'm too close to her? She can almost be considered my person now, and I dare say she will definitely be willing to follow my will when she advances. How do you think I did it? Do you think I can remain indifferent to her and then gain her loyalty?"

"And the main point is that I didn't even know about this. It's normal for them to want to hide it from me, but you know how I would react, and you also know that I wouldn't let them do this, but you didn't notify me in advance."

"Have you forgotten how you became the Chief Justice?"

The Chief Justice looked into his eyes and said:

"I know what you would do, so I didn't say it. We can't suppress this news, so we can only actively cooperate to complete the cooperation with Atlantis and exchange for the opportunity to summon the Great Flood, but you definitely wouldn't let her participate in the war."

Raffin's face darkened:

"So you no longer trust my decisions?"

The Chief Justice stood up:

"I still believe in you, and I think you are far more important than the so-called young genius, so I will make decisions based on my opinion of you. When you helped me solve my competitors, wasn't it also because you thought I could make the right decisions?"

"Okay, I'm going back to continue playing the role of a fanatical madman. You should help Ivana make preparations."

Watching the Chief Justice of the Court of Judgment slowly disappear in front of him, he also withdrew his consciousness from this secret room that only the two of them knew, and reopened his eyes in his office.

Fortunately, he's fine.

There's no way to change what's already happened. It's meaningless to waste time on past regrets. Raffin specifically wanted to meet with the Chief Justice of the Court of Judgment just to be cautious and make sure he hadn't betrayed him.

In the current situation, this is possible. If there is an opportunity and the situation is right, those cardinals will definitely try to take over or abolish him. The conflicts between them have become so intense that it's difficult to maintain rationality.

Fortunately, he has always ensured that the situation on the surface is not suitable for them to take action. The Church under Raffin's leadership will always remain in a state where it needs him, and they also seem to be somewhat at odds with the Court of Judgment. All kinds of measures have ensured that those old geezers can't attack him.

But no matter how vigilant you are against those old lunatics, it's not enough. They've lived for too long, and their brains will inevitably rust.

But in fact, even if they really take action, it's just tearing off the mask in advance. Raffin became the Pope who guided all the believers in the Federation at the age of seventeen. Over the years, he has also made countless arrangements.

If everything goes smoothly, within thirty years he will have Ivana and the current Chief Justice as two capable cadres. By then, he can start to slowly bring the entire Church under his control. Although the angels are more dangerous than the cardinals, they are also more arrogant. As long as he doesn't openly oppose these birdmen, there won't be any trouble.

Although the Chief Justice of the Court of Judgment is still on his side this time, it is also a test of him by the cardinals. He still has to think about how to respond to them, but before that, he has to solve the immediate problem.

Raffin stood up and then withdrew the divine arts surrounding the church.

Sunlight shone through the window onto him, and an orange-red body instantly emerged from the beam of light, and the heat wave that burst out instantly spread outwards, but was immediately caught steadily by the gentle holy light.

"You don't seem to want to see me very much," the figure made of flames said in a hoarse voice.

Raffin looked at the temporary body in front of him that could collapse at any time and said:

"You bypassed me and discussed with them. Do you still want me to talk to you properly?"

"If you didn't have a way to temporarily leave the Southern Federation, I wouldn't have given you a chance to see me at all."

The Sun God asked calmly:

"I don't understand the problems between you. I found them just because it was convenient."

"If you want, I can come directly to you next time."

Raffin said with a smile:

"That sounds nice, but what you did has nothing to do with what I said."

"In the eyes of those cardinals, all they see are me and the so-called prophecies. They don't seem to have noticed your existence at all, and they haven't figured out how dangerous it is for the dignified Sun God to personally intervene in the conspiracy. Don't you think they underestimate you too much?"

The Sun God's tone was still without any waves:

"They have seen me a long time ago, so naturally they know me better than you do."

"Even though the sun shines on the whole world, I still can't really leave the Southern Federation. I'm not your problem for the time being."

This is also the reason why the gods and the Church can coexist. The gods can't really leave the Southern Federation. Even the strongest gods like the Sun God and the Thunder God can temporarily penetrate their weak power out of the Southern Federation through some means, but they still can't pose any threat.

Although the Sun Avatar standing in front of him now has a certain amount of power, for Tier 5 ability users like them, the power he carries on his body is almost meaningless. Raffin can directly drive him back to the Southern Federation with a flick of his finger.

But he still said with a serious expression:

"Now that you can stand in front of me, do you think I wouldn't worry about you, the false god?"

The Sun God continued:

"You should indeed worry. We will break free from our restraints sooner or later, and I guarantee that your Church that worships mortals will be completely destroyed by me and my compatriots, but that will be a long time after you die."

"That future is so far away for you that it's almost non-existent. Now you should be more worried about the Federation."

Raffin felt the implication in his words:

"The Federation has no grudges with us now."

The Sun God replied:

"Not yet, but what do you think they were trying to do when they asked us to besiege Shenxiao? They wanted to control this reality warper. If we just watch them completely control her, we will all be in danger."

Raffin looked at him and asked:

"So you're afraid of her?"

The Sun God said very honestly:

"Of course I don't want the Federation to completely control Shenxiao. Although Shenxiao under the control of the Federation will be inferior to her, don't forget that the Federation itself is a more powerful force than her. It's just that this behemoth is not good at subtle operations, and Shenxiao can completely make up for this shortcoming."

"Although she won't be able to kill us by then, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave the Southern Federation for a long time, and you will definitely be targeted by her. Dealing with you and us at the same time is in the interests of the Federation and the operating mechanism of Shenxiao."

"The Federation and I both know what the return of your gods means. I have also had contact with him."

After the Sun God said this, Raffin understood that no matter how he thought about it, he could only accept his cooperation. If his purpose was really to deal with Shenxiao, he had no other choice. As the Pope, he also had a responsibility to prevent the Federation from completely controlling Shenxiao.

"So what are you going to do?" he asked the Sun God.

The Sun God told him:

"We have to win the duel with the Federation. Use ancient magic to restrain them and help Atlantis jointly fight against the evil sea tribe. If we can successfully win that battle, I will have a way to make them send Shenxiao to carry out this task."

Raffin asked puzzled:

"What do you mean? Aren't you going to stop them from completely controlling Shenxiao?"

The Sun God said:

"They won't control Shenxiao. Neither I nor she will give the Federation this opportunity. I have observed this organization for tens of thousands of years. I understand the operating logic of this thing better than all the current members of the Federation. In the end, they will reach a balance with Shenxiao."

If we don't exist, then this will indeed be conducive to the Federation speeding up the control of her, but the premise is that she can get away.

"Shenxiao will drag her suppressed body to stop that thing. She is one of the few abilities that can really suppress the sea tribe. Only unreasonable prophecies can prevent these things from becoming stronger and stronger, but we have a way to ensure that Shenxiao and the things under the sea reach a delicate balance."

"She will turn into a seal to suppress the sea tribe and guarantee that the world will not be destroyed by them forever."

Raffin asked:

"So how can you be sure that the Federation will do this, and how can you guarantee that Shenxiao can't leave there?"

The Sun God said:

"We have countless measures. Shenxiao's power will be enhanced when organizing the sea tribe, because she is saving the world. At the same time, the ocean itself will trap her inside, and let her form a fragile triangular relationship with the sea tribe. She will never be able to leave the ocean again by then."

"But the most important reason is simpler. If Shenxiao doesn't stay there and the Federation doesn't send her, you will usher in the end of the world."

"I'm not talking about things thousands of years later. The things buried under the ocean are about to wake up."

"And if it gets up, the entire world's geological structure will undergo earth-shattering changes. The land will sink, the ocean will flood the buildings you have built, and human civilization will once again enter the dark age."

"They have no choice."

Raffin's expression changed:

"The end of the world, no wonder she has no other choice."

"But why do you think I would join forces with you to do such a dangerous thing?"

The Sun God asked:

"Do you think that if we do nothing, it won't destroy the human world? We are preventing its awakening. Of course, I admit that we may have to risk stimulating it a few times in the process, but in the end Shenxiao will stand up to block it."

Raffin questioned with a gloomy expression:

"What if Shenxiao fails to stop him?"

The Sun God said:

"I have full confidence in the Federation and her. They have already proven their abilities, but you don't need to worry too much. The destruction of human civilization I just mentioned may have caused you a misunderstanding. The end of the world is only for the vast majority of humans."

"We are eternal and immortal gods. I have also seen you countless times of decline and rise. We will not die, but will turn into guardians to guide you to rebuild a magnificent civilization. This is not a long wait for us gods."

"And for you, you are also beneficiaries if you look at you from my perspective."

"Those hidden cardinals will not die, and heaven will not be flooded by the ocean. When it leaves this planet, you will get the best opportunity to preach. Everyone alive will know that you are the prophets."

"The Great Flood is coming, just like your prophecies, countless converts will be born. By then, the Federation will be silent for a long time, and Shenxiao will die completely in what is the end of the world for her, and we will divide the rest of the world. Isn't that great?"

"Of course, we will have competition by then, and you will also become immortal cardinals. We will become mortal enemies in that era, but compared to other organizations, we are already winners. Even for the gods, this is not much worse than it is now."

"It's a pity that this future will not come in the end, but Shenxiao can see it, and the Federation will know it. They will eventually stop it."

"But we are the victors."
