Myth: The Spiritual Dominator

With a calm face, Nuo's voice echoed in the temple. Around him, no one from the church's senior leaders expressed doubts or objections.

This is not just because of Nuo's reputation and status, but because everyone present does not think there is any problem with this. A long time ago, Nuo had expounded similar views to them more than once, and now he has implemented them personally.

What's more, even if you don't consider these, there is no simple and easy way to eternal life under today's objective conditions.

Nuo can do it because his piety and merit are recognized by angels, and they are willing to give him eternal life, but this does not mean that others also have this honor. As for the means of witchcraft - it can indeed delay lifespan to a certain extent, but eternity is still a distant proposition for it.

The reason is actually not complicated. The initial witchcraft was compiled by Ryan from a high-level perspective, and later it was studied bit by bit by Hecate. These two beings who were most likely to create a method of immortality through witchcraft did not study the 'method of immortality'. Road's plan, because they simply don't have the need. In contrast, human beings' own level of witchcraft is obviously not enough to overcome this difficulty.

Maybe it can be done in the future, but that is destined to be a very distant future. For most people, if there is a high probability that they will never have the opportunity to see something, then they will naturally not strongly object to it.

Of course, in addition to the above objective factors, there is also the most critical point, which is that as believers, the top leaders of these churches do not think death is something worth fearing.

The reincarnation of all spirits is one of the powers of God. Some people even met Eunomia who came to the human world with Nuo. In this case, there is no unknown, and naturally there is no fear.

"Very good," Nuo smiled and nodded while sitting in the wheelchair. He was not surprised by their reaction: "It seems that at this point, you all agree with my proposition."

"You are a prophet and teacher who has received divine enlightenment. No matter what your proposition is, we will recognize it."

In front of Nuo, a woman who looked to be in her thirties said.

Of course, she is actually over a hundred years old, but the bloodline from the water elves in the residents of Silvermoon City greatly slows down the rate of aging. Even though this speed varies from person to person, with only a handful of people able to enjoy a life of more than three to five hundred years, the average life span is far twice as long as that of similar people.

"No one is right all the time, Alma. I just learned some lessons from past history."

Regarding the students' respect, Nuo shook his head helplessly. In fact, in his heart, the respect of the people around him was one of the reasons that really prompted him to choose death.

It had been too long since anyone in Silvermoon City was willing to question him, as if everything he did was right, but Nuo himself didn't think so. No one is always right except the All-Knowing One, and in his view, this excessive reverence is likely to evolve to another level.

Prometheus is a clear example of this. Although Nuo himself respected the creator of bronze humans, he actually did not approve of the way he handled some things.

"Okay, the next step is the arrangements after my death."

Nuo shook his head slightly. Perhaps because he was nearing the end of his life, Nuo's thinking was a little divergent, but when he came back to his senses, he still said everything he had decided in advance in an organized manner:

"Silver Moon City needs a new pope. He will inherit my position, communicate with the messenger of the Lord, and guide the future direction of Silver Moon City. This is also the most important reason why I summoned you today."

"You want this position because not only is it closer to God, but each of you has different opinions. Some of you want to maintain the status quo, some of you think that some actions of wizards should be restricted; some of you want to They are exploring wilderness on land, and some are setting their sights on the sea.”

"This is not just your idea alone. There are many people who agree with you. Some of them are for themselves, and some of them are also for the future of Silvermoon City. So you are all waiting for my decision. , because whoever I choose means that I agree with his ideas, and before today, I have never made any judgment on your opinions.”

"Yes, teacher." said a middle-aged man who looked more like a warrior than a priest: "We have argued in front of you many times, and we have all expressed our opinions. But none of us has convinced anyone. , after all, our wisdom is not enough to make a decision that everyone agrees with. This is something only you can do, so we are waiting for your ruling."

"No, Damian, I can't do it. Just because you think I'm right doesn't mean that the choice I made is really the right one. And the reason why I haven't made a decision is because I can't make a definite decision either. judge."

"Just like you, if I asked you to give up your plan, would you really be convinced?"

"...I will follow your orders. You must have seen a future that I haven't seen yet."

Standing in front of Nuo, the man named Damian still said respectfully.

Shaking his head slightly, Nuo knew it would be such a result.

The debate among the people present has been going on for a long time, and he also knows why there has been no result. Not only because each of them insists on their own opinions, but also because no one has obviously higher prestige or ability than others.

Silver Moon City has been at peace for too long. They have no foreign enemies, no difficulties, and no natural disasters. Under such circumstances, naturally no one can do a feat that will convince most people. Therefore, it is impossible for them to reach a consensus on their own.

But as Nuo himself said, he didn't know who was right. He never thought that he was a 'prophet', nor did he think that he could see further than everyone else. So looking at the few people standing silently in front of him, Nuo made a complete decision.

If the result cannot be obtained by guessing, then let reality verify the truth. Fortunately for Silvermoon City, which has been at peace for so many years, they have enough ability to support this.

"Your argument has no result, and I don't intend to make an arbitrary decision. However, I still support your different opinions."

"Dissent is a good thing, and the Lord prefers change and difference. So my final decision is not to establish the position of pope for the time being."

After the words fell, Nuo obviously saw some surprised expressions on several people's faces, but no one directly objected because they could all see that Nuo still had something to say.

"Reality is more powerful than words, and each of you has supporters of your own opinions. In this case, let you verify it yourself."

"Those who want to expand abroad, I allow you to lead those who are willing to follow you to conquer the ocean and wilderness. Those who still stay in Silvermoon City, then stay here, and you will form a council. Only those who get the approval of the majority Decisions must be made.”

"When I leave, there won't be such a 'big mountain' that stops you from verifying your ideas. When everything comes to fruition, the person with the highest achievements will be the next pope."

"You are not a mountain standing in our way."

Bowing slightly, not happy that his idea could be partially implemented, Damian corrected him first. Nuo just smiled at this. He knew that the other party always had no sense of humor.
