Steele said.

"Of course we should pay attention to the former. Didn't I just say that? Strictly speaking, the vast land of the Orthodox Church should start from the place where the "Apostles' Cross" was erected. If this is the case, then the other way around..."

"on the other hand?"

Xia Qing answered.

At this moment, Steele lit a cigarette for himself, and after taking a puff, he exhaled a large cloud of white smoke.

"That's right, that means the place where the "Apostle's Cross" is erected will be completely under the control of the Orthodox Church, even Academy City."

""Pricking Hang Sword" was originally a sword that can pierce a dragon and nail it to the earth. It is a huge existence with two wings. From the guardianship of sleeping treasures to the slaughter of selfish desires, such dragons are also angels serving God and fallen creatures. Metaphor of the devil."

Steele continued.

"Putting the dragon on the ground also meant to let the angels guard the land and turn it into a holy place. That thing does not seem to be "made of gold" that can absorb human will, it is completely "automatically directed to Orthodox Church as a whole is in a favorable direction", but what will happen if such a thing is erected in Academy City?"

"So to say……"

The corner of Xia Qing's mouth curled up, and he joked.

"In this way, Academy City will become beneficial to the Orthodox Church, so the followers of the Orthodox Church will become quite lucky when they come to Academy City?"

"Well, if the effect of the "Apostle's Cross" is the same as in the literature, it is not all a bad thing. The Orthodox Christians who enter this city will continue to win money even if they encounter major wins or losses when gambling. Even if the building is bombed You won't get hurt even if you blow it off, it's unnatural, plus..."

Stiles twitched his lips ironically.

"The "Apostle's Cross" will also help people other than Orthodox Christians. If Orthodox Christians continue to win money in gambling, of course some people will lose money.

But "Apostle's Cross" will create a situation where it is really good to lose, even if the bomb is the same, even if the building is blown up by the explosion, no one will be fatally injured, and it will create a happy situation where everyone is fine. "

Hearing this sentence, Xia Qing answered immediately.

"It is impossible for the Orthodox Church to be so kind, there must be other reasons hidden in it."

Steele nodded.

"Yes."

While talking, the two walked towards the streets outside the range of "Idle People Dispersed".

"If something like the Apostles' Cross hadn't been erected in the first place, no one would have lost money at gambling or planted bombs targeting Orthodox Christians.

At first glance, everyone seems to be living a happy life, but in fact, the "Apostle's Cross" has brought a great load to the people around it, and it is invisible. "

In fact, in the history of Christianity, such "swapping" of happiness has happened surprisingly frequently.

For example St. Martin, this guy has a very interesting story.

That was the story of when he destroyed the ancient temples of the pagans and planned to cut down the sacred tree for the mission of Christianity.

The pagan farmers who did not want to become Christians resisted until the end and said: "If there is really a god guarding you, you should catch the sacred tree we cut down. If you are really blessed by the gods, you should not die."

Saint Martin, who heard these words, drew a sign of the cross on his chest facing the tree that fell towards him.

As a result, something incredible happened. The Shenmu fell in the opposite direction, almost crushing the pagan farmers.

The farmers were touched by the miracle of the Lord, so they harvested and believed in Christianity...

"Don't you think this is strange? The person who used the incredible ability to make the tree fall to the peasants is obviously Saint Martin himself. He can make the tree fall in a safer place."

Stiles said with a look of disdain.

"Anyway, the result is that the Shenmu who fell in the opposite direction did not kill the heretics, because this is the mercy bestowed by the Lord, and the farmers who got the opportunity to convert are all very happy.

Regardless of whether the result is good or bad, their original history, tradition, and spiritual culture will undoubtedly be completely wiped out. "

This does indeed give happiness.

But that's not "happiness because something happened", it's "happiness no matter what happens".

Psychologically, this method has been determined to have a certain degree of effect.

First, fulfill the absolutely impossible requirement A, and then raise the original requirement B when the other party pleads that it cannot be fulfilled.

In this way, it will be easier to achieve the requirement B than to make the requirement B in the first place.Like B is so much better than A, so lucky.

As long as you operate the negative-to-negative balance in a specific order, you can reduce the relative value of happiness.

Stiyl continued, shaking the cigarette in his mouth up and down.

"The "Apostle's Cross" uses this mythical psychological effect. No matter what happens, things will go in a direction that is beneficial to the Orthodox Church. People around them who are made unreasonable demands will accept it for some reason...

This is undoubtedly the most comfortable and pleasant "sacred place" for Orthodoxy, right? "

Xia Qing nodded.

"Then what exactly are Oriana and the others going to do?"

"If this world is divided into two parts, it can be divided into scientific forces and magical forces. Now it just happens to be in a state of balance."

Stiles simply replied.

"Among them, the leader of the scientific forces is Academy City. If this Academy City is fully under the protection of the Orthodox Church, how do you think the balance of this world will become?"

Xia Qing answered.

"If the scientific power that accounts for half of the world becomes an organization under the magical power, with the world's general scientific power plus the magic's own organizational power, it can indeed control more than 50.00% of the world's power.
