Chapter 224 Why do you know so much about Lord Poseidon?

Ryan's voice whispered like a devil, easily touching Elsa's heartstrings.

She couldn't help but swallow her saliva and said with a slightly trembling voice:

"Don't joke with me now. I'm just a candidate for a saint. How dare I hope for the position of pope."

Ryan looked at Aisha who was obviously not sincere in what she said, and thought to himself that it was safe.

He was afraid that Aisha was the kind of fanatical believer who strictly abided by the doctrine and followed the rules. In that case, he would definitely not go into the muddy waters of Poseidon Temple.

Although Aisha said not to joke, there was a glimmer of hope in her eyes. She was obviously tempted by Ryan's proposal, and then the next thing would be easier to handle.

Ryan glanced at Knight Commander Moni and Knight Mayor next to Elsa, and then cast a questioning look at Elsa.

Aisha naturally understood what Ryan meant: "Please rest assured, they are my guardian knights, and they have a mutually beneficial and mutually beneficial relationship with me. They will never disclose any information to the outside world."

Ryan didn't know much about the responsibilities of the guardian knights, but since Elsa trusted them so much, it was enough to show that they would not betray easily.

So Ryan continued to speak: "I won't joke with you about this kind of thing. You should know the power structure of Poseidon Temple better than me. Although the status of the Saint is very high, it is not to the extent of affecting the Pope's decision, right?"

Elsa was silent after hearing this. Ryan was right. The status of the saint was very noble, but she had no clear power. Even the mobilization of the three major knights relied on the influence of the Pope.

Although the status of the Son and the Saint seems to be higher than that of the Blue-clothed Bishop, in fact the power of the two is very different, let alone compared with the Pope.

In other words, even if she is successfully elected as a saint, it will be difficult to change the decision of the high-level officials of Poseidon Temple to cooperate with the Shadow Church.

She deliberately didn't think about this before, just to keep some hope for herself and the guardian knights, so that they could persevere and not completely lose their faith in Poseidon Temple.

But now Ryan's words have broken their illusions and put the facts in front of them. They can no longer deceive themselves with the plan to elect a saint and change the minds of the top officials.

A wry smile appeared on Aisha's pretty face, she sighed and said:

"You are right, our plan is too childish. The Saint really has no ability to change the minds of His Majesty the Pope and the blue-coated bishops."

"No, no, no, your plan is still feasible to a certain extent. Only by having the say of Poseidon Temple can you have the opportunity to undermine the cooperation between Poseidon Temple and the Shadow Church."

Ryan first approved Aisha's plan, and then continued:

"It's just that your plan is a bit too petty. You actually set a saint as your target. Even if you can become a saint, what's the use? You're not at the mercy of the blue bishop and the pope. The only way is to become the pope. You have the power to change all of this!”

Ryan began to use his pie-drawing ability again, but Elsa was not as easy to fool as the players.

She frowned slightly, feeling that Ryan was exaggerating. Of course she knew that becoming the Pope would destroy the cooperation between Poseidon Temple and the Shadow Church, but did she mean that she could become the Pope?

Not to mention that she is now only a candidate for a saint, not even an official saint. Even if she is successfully elected as a saint, she will still have to compete unfairly with the saints in the northern diocese.

Why is it unfair? Because in Poseidon Temple, there has always been a tradition of a saint being elected as pope and then marrying a saint.

The reason for this tradition is not because of any gender discrimination in Poseidon Temple, but because the saint shoulders the responsibility of communicating with Poseidon. She has to pray quietly in Poseidon Temple every day. She has no time to deal with the teaching affairs of Poseidon Temple and can only make time. A more sufficient Son to be elected Pope.

As for why the responsibility of communicating with the Poseidon falls on the Saint, you have to ask Lugia, who made it only appear when the Saint prays and calls.

Although the number of appearances is not many, it is better than not showing up even once when the Holy Son calls.

Therefore, after summing up the experience, Poseidon God decided to let the saint bear the responsibility of communicating with Lord Poseidon.

In order to consolidate his power, the pope often marries a saint who can communicate with the sea god, keeping power and faith firmly in his hands.

The saint herself had no real power and could not resist the pope's will, so she could only be forced to marry the pope.

Over time, this agreed tradition was formed.

Over the years, Poseidon has continued this tradition, and there has only been one female pope in history.

She was elected pope because of various coincidences. First, the previous pope died suddenly and suddenly, and then the Son also died mysteriously the day before he succeeded to the throne.

There was no time to elect a new son, so the saint was elected pope.

Because this process was so tortuous and dramatic, many rumors and stories about the female pope circulated.

The most widely circulated story is that she poisoned the Pope and the Holy Son in order to ascend to the throne. Even the poison she used was said to have a nose and an eye.

Ryan's predecessor also heard this story told by knights when he was a child, but the content of the story was a bit inappropriate for children. It was said that the female pope used the flame queen lizard's poisonous gas with pheromones to lure the old pope and the holy son, and this led to the poisoning. their chance.

The knights told the details of the story vividly, which made Ryan, who was ignorant at the time, blush with embarrassment, but he couldn't help but want to listen.

In the end, Butler Anderson came forward and angrily rebuked the knights, so that Ryan could not go astray at a young age.

But Ryan still remembers this story, which shows the profound impact this story has on the masses, and also gives the always holy Poseidon Temple a bit of a secular atmosphere.

Of course, the Poseidon Temple does not want its sanctity to be weakened, so the senior officials have great opinions on the female pope.

In addition, during her tenure, the female pope had to be busy praying and dealing with academic affairs. She had no choice but to give power to the blue-shirted bishops, causing the blue-shirted bishops' power to expand rapidly, resulting in a situation where the power of the blue-shirted bishops was too big to lose.

Although the next few popes tried every means to take back the power from the blue bishops, the results were not great.

With the experience of the female pope, the subsequent popes were even more reluctant to pass on the position to the saint. This also made the possibility of Elsa being elected pope extremely low, so she thought that Ryan was talking nonsense.

Ryan also saw that Aisha was unwilling to eat the cake he drew. He didn't say anything more, but stood up and walked out the door.

Upon seeing this, Elsa quickly stopped Ryan: "Baron Ryan, what are you doing? We haven't finished talking yet, why are you in a hurry to leave? Isn't it a bit disrespectful to us!"

Ryan said disdainfully: "Respect? What is it about you that deserves my respect?"

Aisha felt a little unhappy when she heard this. She had already lowered her attitude, but Ryan still looked down on them, which was really annoying.

"What? Do you think I'm insulting you? Don't forget, Poseidon is your belief, not mine. Now someone is coveting your belief, but you are still hesitant and hesitant. When you make up your mind, I am afraid that the Shadow Church All plans were successful.”

"You talk about your faith in Poseidon all day long, but in the end you don't even have the courage to fight to the death for your faith. Why do you deserve my respect, based on your status as a candidate for a saint?"

"That's right. If Poseidon Temple really reaches a cooperation with the Shadow Church, with your beauty, you might even be able to become the Saint of the Shadow Church. Do I have to meet the Saint now?"

Ryan taunted loudly, with a teasing smile on his face.

"Baron Lane! You have gone too far! Please take back these words!"

Knight Commander Moni said angrily that although he recognized Ryan, he would not allow Ryan to insult the object of his protection.

Mayor on the side was even more angry and wanted to pull out the knight's sword, but as soon as he put his hand on the hilt of the sword, he was controlled by a powerful telepathy, and he couldn't move his whole body.

I saw a Gardevoir appearing behind Mayor, its eyes flashing with a deep blue light.

It was also very angry in its heart. The human in front of it dared to draw a sword against Ryan. If it hadn't received Ryan's order, it would have wanted to use telepathy to cripple Mayor's hands.

Gardevoir turned to look at Ryan, wanting to ask Ryan how to deal with this human being.

Seeing that Mayor was being controlled by Gardevoir, Aisha hurriedly said:

"I'm sorry, Baron Lane, Knight Mayor is too impulsive. Please don't behave like him. I know you didn't mean what you said just now. You just want us to know our shame and become brave again."

"But they don't know. They thought I was verbally insulted, so they behaved irrationally. Please don't blame him."

Ryan did not speak when he heard this, but just waved his hand towards Gardevoir.

Gardevoir let go of his telekinesis, and it looked at Moni and Mayor with a warning look, and then moved to behind Ryan in an instant.

After Mayor regained control of his body, he quickly took his hand away from the hilt of the sword. He did not expect that Ryan's Gardevoir was so powerful, no wonder it could defeat Baron Bach.

Aisha breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Ryan had no intention of punishing Mayor. She then said to Ryan:

"Baron Ryan, it's not that we don't trust what you said, nor that I have lost my courage and confidence. It's just that you may not know much about our Poseidon Temple. According to the past traditions of Poseidon Temple, it is difficult for me to take over the position of the Pope. "

Seeing that Aisha wanted to continue talking, Ryan returned to his seat.

"Oh, what's wrong with the tradition? Your Poseidon Temple didn't have a tradition of cooperating with the Church of Shadows before, but now it's starting to show signs of it. They have already broken the so-called tradition, and there is no need for you to abide by it."

Ryan sneered, and then said to Aisha:

"Besides, would the saints in the past receive great help from the nobles? I don't think so. At most, they would only be a weak barony, and they would not get much help at all."

"But you are different. You will get my full help, and my potential is more than that. The three towns are just the beginning. I will occupy more territories in the future, and my title will be improved accordingly. The help you can get It will get bigger and bigger.”

"With my support behind you, your election as Pope is not an unattainable goal. So, Lady Aisha, make your choice."

"Do you choose to be a saint candidate and let the shadow church shake your faith, or choose to fight hard, defeat all competitors, and become the pope who controls everything."

"It's all up to you!"

Ryan's voice became louder and louder, and his passionate words made both Moni and Mayor feel excited. Of course they wanted Elsa to be elected pope, not only for their own future, but also to defend Poseidon's faith.

Aisha lowered her head and thought for a while, then smiled casually:

"Baron Ryan is really cunning. He said he gave me two choices, but you know I will never choose the former. In order to protect the glory of Lord Poseidon, I am willing to pay any price. Please help me!"

Seeing that Aisha had made the right choice, Ryan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Very well, your decision is very wise. As long as we join forces, we will be able to destroy the conspiracy of the Shadow Church!"

"Let's talk about the next plan first. As you said before, I will cooperate with you in acting to make the higher-ups of Poseidon Palace mistakenly think that I won the war with your secret help."

"In this way, Lady Aisha can gain more merits, win the saint selection, be successfully elected as a saint, and complete our first phase goal."

Aisha nodded repeatedly after hearing this. It seemed that Ryan did not aim too high, but chose to complete the plan step by step.

If Ryan comes up and talks about how to get her elected as pope, then she won't be worried.

"But how do we make the higher-ups of Poseidon Temple believe that you have been sidelined by us?"

Elsa asked curiously.

"This is not simple. In the eyes of your Poseidon God, aren't we nobles just a bunch of losers? You can just find any reason. For example, I am obsessed with beauty, and you can control it easily."

Ryan replied that although Poseidon Temple has always been suppressed by the noble forces, they are still dissatisfied. They always regard themselves as noble and look down on the nobles from the bottom of their hearts.

The lustful image he created was in line with Poseidon's inherent impression of nobles and would not arouse their suspicion.

"Huh? This isn't good, is it?"

A faint blush appeared on Elsa's cheeks.

"What's wrong? Anyway, all I lost was my reputation."

Ryan said nonchalantly that he didn't care about his reputation in Poseidon Temple. As long as he could achieve his goal, it didn't matter what Aisha and others said.

"Oh well."

Since Ryan doesn't mind, Aisha will naturally not object.

"In addition, you just said that the archbishop of the southeast region is your supporter. As the regional bishop, he will definitely know some secret information. You can ask him to inquire about the actions of the Shadow Church."

"The target of the Shadow Church is Poseidon, so they will definitely capture and control the three holy birds first, and use them to lure Poseidon to show up. I don't know if Lightning Bird and Frozen Bird have been caught by them, at least the Flame Bird has not fallen yet. In their hands."

"We have to find ways to interfere with their actions to buy us time."

Ryan spoke for a long time, but did not hear Aisha's response.

He raised his head in confusion and saw Aisha and others looking at him in shock.

No, why do you, a noble, know Lord Poseidon so well? !
