The Archbishop also expected the consequences of telling Nok Lane's identity clearly.
But he still had to continue to chair the meeting and keep it going.
"Okay, now everyone knows the identity and achievements of Nok Lane.
What we want to discuss now is his commendation and reward.
First of all, there is no doubt about his identity as a priest, just from John Rhine’s suicide note,
It was enough for the church to follow the custom and recognize Nock Lane as a priest.
So, what we need to study now is whether to grant him the position of regional bishop.
At the same time, should we send more manpower to Reims Cathedral?
After all, he is now fighting alone to conquer all the churches in Champagne.
It's not enough to ask them to bow their heads.
Moreover, in order to prevent his identity as the master of the holy spear from being leaked,
If it causes unnecessary danger, we need to discuss what level of protection we should give him.
Finally, there is the issue of its inheritance.
Who is responsible for teaching him? Don't delay this kid's potential.
He has wasted three years.
Without inheritance, he would be stuck at the Silver level forever.
Oh, by the way, let’s discuss the candidate for the new cardinal of the Kingdom of France.
After all, Reims Cathedral is in the Champagne region, not far from the French royal city of Paris.
A cardinal with whom he can get along well is very necessary. "
Having said this, the Archbishop glanced at Akbonos who was gritting his teeth.
Asked: “Bishop Akbunos, do you have a suitable candidate in mind?
After all, you were the cardinal of the former Kingdom of France.
By convention, regional cardinals give priority to local bishops as candidates.
Appropriate candidates are selected after assessment and evaluation.
I remember that the new king of the Kingdom of France has not yet ascended the throne.
The application for the enthronement ceremony has been submitted long ago.
But due to the current lack of regional cardinals, I have been holding back.
After all, we can't let the regional bishop crown a king.
Quickly select the person, and then take advantage of this time to go to Reims Cathedral to reward him, and send someone to assess him by the way.
If there is really no candidate, then the Holy Court can only send people directly to parachute. "
The archbishop's words almost caused Akbonos to break his teeth.
Originally, his favorite candidate was the bishop he transferred to the Holy Court.
In line with the idea of the first to get the moon near the water and the tower,
He originally wanted the bishop to look familiar in front of the boss.
He is then proposed as a candidate for Cardinalship.
But now the bishop has definitely been cheated.
He even mentioned a fart!
It’s not that the other regional bishops of the Kingdom of France lack discernment.
They are the spies arranged by political opponents within his jurisdiction.
What a bad choice he made!
However, he suddenly remembered that there was an inconspicuous guy in the royal city.
Because that person looked more like an official than a bishop.
That man was from the military and had made great military exploits.
He even became the king's confidant.
However, after the death of the previous king of France, the queen took control of the government.
He was deliberately ignored by the queen and emptied of power, so he simply joined the church and devoted himself to cultivating Taoism.
But because he still had an official position, he had already taken care of the king's orphaned son.
In addition to practicing Buddhism, he was also responsible for entering the palace and teaching the young king the responsibilities.
And unknowingly, more than ten years have passed, and that person seems to be a priest or a bishop?
No matter, it’s him.
He happened to be close to the king, so it was most appropriate for him to serve as a cardinal to crown the king.
Moreover, if he knew that he was the candidate who nominated him to be a cardinal,
Maybe the other party will be grateful and take refuge in his subordinates.
After all, that guy is like a transparent person. Apart from the fact that I pay special attention to him because of his official status,
No one else cared about him at all.
Thinking of this, he mentioned it casually.
"Well, there is a good bishop in the royal capital named Armand Richelieu.
He was also the prime minister appointed by the previous king of France, but was suppressed by the former queen.
Empty positions and no real power. Should be a good candidate. "
The archbishop did not expect that Akbunos would actually give his personal choice.
He couldn't help but be a little surprised, but he still nodded and wrote down the name Richelieu.
"Okay, now that the issue of the Cardinal's candidate has been settled.
So let’s discuss the arrangements for Nok Lane.
You must have thought about it for so long and already have some ideas in your mind.
Take it out and let everyone study it together. "
The archbishop directly threw out today's topic.
His Majesty the Pope squinted his eyes and closed his eyes to rest, as if what happened next had nothing to do with him.
Several guys who peeked at the Pope's reaction thought about it in their minds and began to speak.
“First of all, I agree to recognize his priesthood.
But I doubted his ability, so I suggested that he go to Holy Court Theological Seminary for three years of further study.
Reims Cathedral was temporarily taken over by people from the Holy Court. Three years later,
Observe his learning results and then decide where he will serve. "
Well, this guy is so cruel, he didn’t even mention whether he would be given the position of bishop.
Taking the cathedral of Reims away from Knock on the pretext of study.
What's even more outrageous is that he actually plans to study in Knock after graduating from the seminary.
Send them to remote places in the mountains!
So dark!
The people present were dumbfounded as they looked at the elder who made the suggestion.
There was a new understanding of how shameless he was.
"Bah! You have the nerve to say such things! Sit down quickly and don't embarrass yourself again!"
An elder who was also an elder but did not belong to his faction loudly scolded this shameless old man.
Even the archbishop glared at him dissatisfied.
Are you kidding me? Could it be that the various achievements and background he just told about Nok Lane,
Have you let the dogs listen?
Otherwise, how dare this idiot put forward such suggestions that directly drive people to the opposite side!
Is there no way out for people? I have to accept your practice.
They were so desperate that they directly sold Reims Cathedral to a sect that was against the Holy Church.
Even if he could get it back in the end, his face would have been swollen and the whole world would know!
Not to mention, there will be no rewards for merit, and they will be robbed by high-level officials.
Is this an attempt to alienate the entire church?
You really don’t treat the clergy below as human beings!
Who hasn’t come from the lower level!
The archbishop directly threatened: "If anyone talks nonsense like Elder Colson again,
Just stop saying it. Otherwise I will definitely make you look good! "
Being named and criticized by the archbishop, Elder Colson bowed his head in embarrassment and remained silent.
After all, he also knew how outrageous his proposal was.
But he just didn't want the heir to the Holy Spear to rise.
But he can't stop the rise of this activation, so he can only make him disappear!
At this moment, Elder Colson had murderous intentions towards Nok.
Knowing the Archbishop's attitude, the remaining suggestions are much more reliable.
There is only one core, and that is: reward!
But how to reward and what level of reward is appropriate?
That was what they were going to continue discussing.
"Archbishop, I think Father Ryan is a bit young. If you want to be a bishop, your qualifications are an issue.
It's hard to stop Youyou's mouth. It will definitely attract criticism when the time comes.
It would be better to acknowledge his priesthood first and then compensate him in other ways.
For example, I think the reward for the meritorious robe is very good.
It not only shows that he has made great achievements, but also adds a layer of protection for him.
Then there is the issue of inheritance.
Doesn't he lack inheritance? Arrangement.
He is the master of the Holy Spear now, so why not arrange the inheritance of the Holy Spear?
Otherwise, he would not be able to exert the function and power of the holy spear.
Well, and arrange manpower for him.
It must be difficult for him to maintain the operation of the cathedral alone.
Priests, nuns, priests, all arranged for him.
Then arrange for a nominal bishop to be given to him, only in name, and will not interfere with Father Ryan's operation and management of the church.
Finally, he will be assigned knights from the One Hundred Meter Holy Knights to protect the cathedral.
Well, the Holy Court is responsible for the salary.
What do you think? "
The person who made this suggestion was an old man dressed as an ascetic.
But everyone who heard his proposal couldn't help but cursed in their hearts: "Old fox".
Even though he seems to be thinking about Nok at every turn.
But just by refusing to become a bishop, a bishop has been parachuted on top of Nok.
It's enough to suppress Knock's development momentum.
After all, superiors are superiors, even in name only.
Can other subordinate clergy bypass him and answer only to Nok Lane?
They are all airborne personnel, how can they be convinced by Nok Lane, a twenty-year-old young man.
I'm afraid that when the time comes, this group of people will unite and eliminate Nok Lane.
Taking control of the affairs of Reims Cathedral by himself is almost the same as Coulson's previous proposal.
It can also drive Nook Lane to the opposite side of the church.
As for the so-called Holy Spear inheritance, it is even more nonsense.
By relying on the inheritance of the holy spear to advance, the professional's strength will be improved.
However, the business and professional abilities of clergy have not been improved.
Even if Nook Lane's strength reaches the holy level, he will always be a priest.
He can't even become a bishop, let alone be promoted to a cardinal and compete for the position of pope in the future.
Without the inheritance of divine magic, Nook Lane could not even communicate with the Holy Lord.
How do you get the approval of the Holy Lord and get promoted!
This old guy is also a bad guy who oozes pus.
Yes, I heard that the heir to his lineage is a genius.
He has unique insights into healing magic.
He is a genius who practices healing magic.
The rise of Nook Lane is bound to become his successor's opponent.
It would be strange if he didn’t suppress it!
Turonev saw how shameless these guys were and couldn't sit still anymore.
After all, other than him, no one else present could say a good word for Nook Lane.
Not suppressing him is considered neutral.
Therefore, he hurriedly spoke.
"I disagree!
Nook Lane’s achievements are there for all to see.
If you don't reward it, wouldn't it be chilling?
If you want to reward, reward the most.
Let everyone know that as long as they are dedicated to the good of the church,
If he does things for the church, the church will never treat him badly.
The church will reward its merits and punish its transgressions!
Therefore, we must not only recognize the priesthood of Nock Lane with great fanfare,
Also give him the bishopric of Reims Cathedral.
The worst thing is to suppress him in the next few years and not give him a chance to be promoted.
But the episcopacy must be given to him now.
First, it makes him feel at ease.
Secondly, it is to let others see that the church has never been stingy with rewards for those who have made meritorious deeds.
Moreover, if Nook Lane cannot become the bishop of Reims Cathedral,
So how could he be willing to continue to allow Reims Cathedral to remain a church for the Church?
Don’t forget, Reims Cathedral is now private property!
Who wants others to dictate what they want in their own home?
If you want him to return to your heart, you can't be stingy.
What's more, his faith is very devout.
Otherwise, we would not go through many hardships and still not forget to maintain the face of the church.
After all, there are many things that he still has to do even though he knows they are thankless.
What for? It’s not just his love and devotion to the church!
As for the convenience of inheritance, the inheritance of the holy spear must be given, and the inheritance of divine magic must be given!
I don’t care what selfish motives you have, but just because he is a saint-like qualification,
That’s enough for the church to devote all its efforts to cultivating!
Don't forget, he has the qualifications of a demigod!
If he could sit on the throne before he was fifty,
Then he is probably the most powerful pope in the church in thousands of years!
Everyone! Although we are reluctant to do so, we have to admit it.
The church is now in decline!
If it weren't for His Majesty the Pope's support, our title as the number one power in the continent would be a joke!
Time to wake up! Look at the Professionals Guild, look at the Adventurers Guild!
The Magic Guild and the Warrior Guild directly involve the future of all professionals.
Even our church had to compromise and send a cardinal to sit in charge;
What a bad elder!
But we can’t do it without compromise!
If we don’t compromise, we may even be cut off as believers in the future!
Not to mention the rapid development of the Adventurers Guild.
Their technology has reached the silver-collar age. Their identity cards, as well as storage cards jointly issued with major banks,
We have been left behind at the foot of the mountain.
Plus they unite experts from all professions.
They are the well-deserved number one force!
However, they are still in the early stages of development and do not want to compete with us for the number one position.
Once their wings are full, the title of the number one force will be changed!
By then, all of us here will be sinners in church history!
But what if we had a demigod pope who could fight one against a hundred.
Hum, so what about the Adventurers Guild.
So what if one hundred holy levels!
It’s not like our church doesn’t have saints besides the pope.
There is an invincible being, who dares to challenge our status.
So put away your selfishness.
If the church has no future, what’s the point of all your calculations!
Don't think that Nook Lane is your path. If your heir is better than him,
So what if I support your heir!
But the problem is, your heir is not as good as others, so you have to suppress them.
Haha, to put it bluntly, how many years can you sit in this position?
When Nook Lane becomes full-fledged, how will you suppress him now?
I will take revenge on you or your successors in the future!
Are you sure you want that?
If you can't stop him, why suppress him?
We can fully support him. When he takes office, can he still take care of you and your descendants?
Besides, his ultimate goal is the Pope.
It is the archbishop who should be anxious. But do you think the Archbishop is anxious?
No!
Because the Archbishop knew that even Nook Lane would take time to grow up.
And this time is enough for the archbishop to take over as pope.
I am right, Your Majesty the Pope. "
The Pope, who was asked by Turonev, finally opened his eyes.
He looked at Turonev with wise eyes, smiled and said:
“After all, it’s you, the outsider, who is more sober.
Your Inquisition has never participated in the power struggles of the Church.
So you can discover my intention to abdicate.
But they can't. They try to curry favor with me every day and make me let go.
Fight for their interests.
But I have been in office for more than fifty years.
Tired and old.
Back Mountain Nursing Home is my place to go.
Boros did a good job in the Archbishop position.
Coupled with the reform of the Adventurer's Guild, I feel that I can no longer adapt to this era.
It is better to let Poros succeed to the throne early, so as to give you a chance and give young people a chance.
But today I am very disappointed. You are only focused on fighting for power and gain, and are completely unaware of the crises in the outside world.
You have been comfortable for too long.
Even the most basic sense of crisis is gone.
Turonev is right,
We need a leader who can suppress the times.
This person could be Nock Lane, or someone better.
But definitely not with us here.
Therefore, we should not hinder the development of the church just for our own selfish reasons.
Otherwise, when we go to the Kingdom of God of the Holy Lord, how will we face the Holy Lord? "
The Pope's words, although somewhat surprising, did not sink in for some.
On the contrary, in their eyes,
As long as they are still at the top, the church will not decline, and it will not affect their enjoyment and status in the slightest.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
Even if the Adventurers Guild really replaces the Holy Church and becomes the number one force in the continent,
Can you still destroy the Holy Church?
Therefore, they have no sense of crisis at all.
You can't see things in the long term.
The Pope looked at everyone's reactions with some disappointment.
I don’t want to waste my time trying to persuade you to say anything.
The youngest people here are over fifty,
They understand everything they should know, but they just don't want to accept it.
As a result, the Pope directly decided on the outcome of the meeting.
"Since you guys can't come up with a result from your discussion, it's better for me to make another decision.
Recognize and accept the identity of the priest of the Holy Church of Knock Lane and register immediately.
The church will lease the right to use the Reims Cathedral using taxes within the cathedral's jurisdiction as rent.
and recognized the ownership and stewardship of the Cathedral of Reims by Knock Lane. "
"Do you have any objection to this?"
The Pope looked at all the attendees with majestic eyes.
The person who originally wanted to object felt an aura coming over him just as he was about to speak.
Immobilize them.
When they met the Pope's half-smiling gaze, they immediately understood what was going on.
Everyone remained silent, not daring to mention any more objections.
Seeing that no one objected, the Pope calmed down and continued:
"Nock Lane adheres to his teacher's legacy and works conscientiously to maintain the monastery of Our Lady of England.
The hard work is great and the ambition is commendable.
During his travels, he saved believers from difficulties many times and promoted the prestige of the church.
During the crisis, he rescued foreigners, showing the Holy Lord’s fraternal spirit.
And nip an upcoming plague in its bud.
His merits were outstanding, and he was specially rewarded with a gold-rimmed robe of meritorious service to show his merits.
He was appointed head of Reims Cathedral and promoted to bishop of Reims City.
During his reign, all the academic affairs of Reims Cathedral were handled by Nook Lane himself.
The church does not actively interfere.
During his reign, the Cathedral of Reims was filled with appointments by Nook Lane himself.
The church does not interfere. "
"I have arranged this, do any of you object?"
The Pope repeated his old tricks, and no one at the meeting spoke up to object.
"Very good, in that case. Send a special envoy to the Kingdom of France as soon as possible,
While announcing the appointment to Nok Lane, he also conducted an assessment of the cardinal candidates.
By the way, after the assessment, let Nook Lane follow the assessment team back to the Holy Court to report on his work.
The old man personally held a 'baptism' ceremony for him, and also allowed him to complete the inheritance of divine magic and the inheritance of the holy spear. "
"Well, that's it. You can discuss it with the Archbishop on how to operate it, and I won't care about it."
"By the way, let the people of Silver Wings escort the special envoy. Don't let our little priest wait in a hurry.
By the way, it can also help him deter some local old guys with evil intentions. "
After the Pope finished speaking, he closed his eyes again and rested.
It was as if he was not the one who spoke just now.
The Pope sets the tone;
The rest is a matter of discussing the details.
Even those who are determined to suppress Nok can't do anything at this time.
So, the meeting ended quickly.
The next day, the two selected envoys, escorted by Silver Wings,
Take the silver-winged dragon and rush to the champagne territory of the Kingdom of France.
And the intelligence agent who delivered the message in Champagne has not started his return journey yet!
Nok, who was far away in the Champagne Territory, had no idea that the leaders of the Holy Court had been quarreling over him.
I don’t know, because of this reward,
He somehow ended up on someone else's hit list.
Opportunities and crises are approaching him quietly.
