Chapter 312 Chapter 310: Three Major Factions (1000 monthly tickets plus additional content last month)

As a regional bishop, Red Dragon Virgil's status was not too high, especially when he was assigned to an area like Flower Territory.

The strength and millennium heritage of the Raymond family, to a certain extent, suppressed the authority of the Church of the Sun God.

If it were other regional bishops, they might have to do something, but the Red Dragon Virgil is a giant dragon after all.

There is still some difference in thinking mode from humans, but I don’t think it’s a big deal.

However, he was an insider of the church after all, and he had honestly followed the promotion system of the seminary, plus he had the experience accumulated over the long years.

To sum up, he knew the inside story and had the courage to speak it out without any scruples!
Of course, the Red Dragon Virgil was not clear about the specific situation in Bremen City. Information did not spread that fast, and it would take time for him to inquire.

However, he revealed everything that was going on inside the church!

There is no doubt that the Church of the Sun God is a real behemoth.

It is so huge that even the Pope, who claims to be God's spokesperson on earth and the omniscient and omnipotent holy spirit on earth, can hardly grasp the entire situation.

The entire Old World, the place of faith of hundreds of millions of people, plus a powerful god who won the war of gods,
To be honest, for a long time, it was the unrivaled existence in the Old World.

But the problem is that powerful forces often collapse from within.

There are various factions within the Church of the Sun God, and as the system becomes more stable, the channels for upward mobility are gradually solidified, causing internal conflicts to become more serious.

At this point, various factions began to emerge.

But at that time, the church was still incomparably strong, and the signs were just signs. No matter how serious the internal corruption was, no one outside dared to challenge it.

The result is that the corrupt become more corrupt, the decadent become more decadent, the situation of factions becomes more serious, and the internal struggle becomes more intense.

However, these good days became a dream after the Habsburg Empire grew and the Seven Gods were born.

No one knows where these new gods come from, but their power is unquestionable.

In the old continent where the Sun God reigned supreme, he actually carved out a kingdom for himself, forcing the Church of the Sun God to retreat step by step and then give up the faith market of the Habsburg Empire.

Not to mention the conflicts among the gods, this defeat also caused an uproar within the Church of the Sun God.

Before, many contradictions that could be suppressed all broke out at this moment.

At this point, the factions within the Church of the Sun God began to show their true colors, and for a long time, the internal struggle had become so fierce that it was a life-and-death struggle.

These mountaintops, big and small, went through constant struggles, extinction, annexation, and integration, and eventually formed three major factions.

Among them, the most powerful and influential is the Sun Faction. They claim to be orthodox and are also the oldest faction. They adhere to the old system and are unwilling to change.

They respected the Pope, and their power was mostly distributed in traditional areas where the old aristocracy was powerful, such as the Norman Duchy, the Bonaparte Empire, etc.

They worship the sun god as the only God and the creator god. Most churches are temples of the sun god, and most priests are shepherds of God.

The second faction is called the Light Faction!
They believe that the sun god is not the only one, but the light he emits is eternal, so they respect the great sun god as the Lord of Light.

They call themselves reformers and innovators, believing that the old system is no longer suitable for the development of the times and needs to be changed and optimized in line with the times.

It is obvious that the stimulation of the Habsburg Empire has changed the thinking of some "shepherds".

Most of their sphere of influence is within the Habsburg Empire or in areas bordering the Habsburg Empire.

This also includes the Kingdom of Sardinia, which has trade links all over the world and is exposed to more information and ideas, making it more likely to accept the Illuminati.

These people have the most contact with the Church of the Seven Gods and have suffered greater ideological shocks. Naturally, they will think and seek change.

There is no doubt that the Illuminati is the weakest and suffered the most severe blow.

However, the group is also very united internally, and feels full of vitality.

Of course, although the various things of the Light Sect may seem radical, in fact, compared with the Holy Light Sect, they are nothing!
The Holy Light Cult's power base is in the New World, and some of its policies are far more radical than those of the Illuminati.

For example, the believers they accept are not only humans, but also aliens.

In other words, those who believe in the sun god can all become compatriots, partners and family members.

This one can be regarded as the biggest challenge to the Sun Sect. For this reason, although the two sects did not fight each other, there were too many internal verbal battles and debates.

As a result, naturally no one could convince anyone else!
As for why the fight didn't break out, a big reason was that the distance was too far.

The New World and the Old World are far apart, and even if one wants to launch a holy war, it is out of reach.

The reason why the Holy Light Sect is so confident is that they can also practice divine arts, pray devoutly to receive blessings, and hold large-scale ceremonies to summon angels...

In other words, although the great being above said nothing, neither denied nor expressed his opinion,
However, there is still a lot to do!

So much so that the current slogan of the Holy Light Sect is: Whoever believes in me will have eternal life!

This sentence seems to be fine, and it was originally proposed by the Light Sect. But now, the Holy Light Sect believes that this "world" includes the Old World and the New World, humans and aliens, surface creatures and underground creatures, and even the entire Helka world.

One can imagine how shocking this argument was when it was first put forward.

However, the Holy Light Sect declared so and did so, and they developed extremely rapidly in the New World.

In fact, it's not just the aliens, they also have a high acceptance of the magical machinery of the Habsburg Empire.

Apart from the Habsburg Empire, the Glorious Empire of the New World introduced the most technology.

Of course, all of the above can only be regarded as large factions. Under these large factions, there are actually many small factions, various sects, and schools, which are countless.

It must be said that Luo Yi read the letter from the Red Dragon Virgil many, many times, and he even wanted to pick out every word and analyze it.

He really didn't expect that such a huge Church of the Sun God would be so complicated!

However, he changed his mind and felt that this was very normal!

It is normal because of the existence of these factions and mountains. Perhaps this is why the saying goes: There are no factions within the party, and all kinds of weird things happen!
For a long time, these religions seemed to intentionally separate themselves from the secular world. Even if there were some struggles, they were rarely spread outside.

Luo Yi really didn't know much, and this time he just got a glimpse of it.

However, he really didn't understand how this had anything to do with the affairs of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

However, subsequent letters revealed many secrets to him.

The second letter that arrived was actually from Ms. Palacios.

Although she is a worshiper of the Flower Territory, as a fourth-level wizard who is also good at potion making, she actually has a wide network of connections.

Then, from her, Roy learned some unknown situations in Bremen.

The city of Bremen ranks among the top ten in the Kingdom of Sardinia. In addition to its port and shipbuilding industry, one of the reasons is the existence of the Vermont Cathedral.

The reason why the Vermont Cathedral is so important is that there is a true legend here, a legend who has lived for a thousand years.

His Majesty Saint Vermont, one of the twelve cardinals of the Church of the Sun God, is definitely a big man at the level of a local lord.

I just heard that this person has a bad temper. Having lived for a long time, his mind has become more or less abnormal.

For example, those below the fourth level, or those who are not devout believers of the Sun God, are not qualified to see his appearance!

If you accidentally see it, you will be burned to death in the holy fire.

Next is the letter from Archduchess Aphra, who actually has little interest in the affairs of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

The distant country across the sea had at most some intersection in trade, which was naturally not worthy of her attention.

However, after consulting the Norman family database, she still provided Roy with a plausible rumor.

Rumor has it that this cardinal is going to die!
Even for a legendary warrior, a lifespan of a thousand years is almost the limit!

Of course, this news did not just come out now. To be specific, this situation has been going on for several years.

And this gave Luo Yi enough to imagine!

Of course, what really allowed Roy to connect everything together was the intelligence provided by the Habsburg Empire.

In a word, the angel skeleton, especially with the existence of the angel ring, has the effect of extending the life of the Holy Light Legend over the years.

Of course, extending life is just extending life, or lingering on.

But if used properly, it could help him move forward.

Above the legend is a sixth-rank demigod!
If you take that step, you will no longer be a human being, but a half-human, half-god being.

Their stage is no longer even limited to this world, but the abyss of hell and the boundless starry sky.

The magic warship was naturally very fast, and Luo Yi was also aware that there were pursuers behind it.

His ears are quite useful and can lock onto pursuers beyond his field of vision.

He had no intention of meeting those pursuers face to face. His identity could be hidden, but the Silver Sea was so vast that he just had to stay away from them.

Although those pursuers were fourth-level natural disasters, in the current situation, no one could find this magic warship unless he wanted to be discovered.

Just as the letters were constantly being sent back, the magic warship was approaching the Siren Port, and another letter arrived.

That came from the Red Dragon Virgil. Through his own channels, he finally had a comprehensive understanding of the affairs of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

At this point, all the puzzle pieces come together and the truth is revealed.

What even Loyi hadn't expected was that the Cardinal, His Majesty Saint Vermont, this legendary figure who had lived for a thousand years, was actually a member of the Illuminati? !
