My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 233 The Pope of Light (Fifth Update)
Yes, Chu Zhu told herself that the person in the Hai's Building was Zhang Hai.

"Those thick eyebrows and big eyes, really!" Chu Zhu was about to dial Huo Qiming's number again when she suddenly stopped, her gaze gradually sharpening.

Is the enemy... really Zhang Hai?
Chu Zhu closed her eyes. There was no reason! If Zhang Hai had a problem... he would have died far too many times in the past!
and so……

"Hu Kaikang?" Chu Zhu asked with a hint of surprise and uncertainty. Yes, he had sent Zhang Hai to find Hu Kaikang, inform him of the inside story, and mobilize the power of the God Worshipping Society! So... this cardinal should be suspected of the same thing as Zhang Hai.

But the question is, is it even possible?

A cardinal of the God Worshipping Society, the highest-ranking member of the God Worshipping Society in Jinghai City, a fanatical follower of God... would do something like this? Something that completely contradicts the principles of the God Worshipping Society?
"Church attack! Cardinal... the omnipotent and omniscient God of the Almighty lineage, the same God as the God of the Catholic Church!"

Chu Zhu lowered her eyes slightly, crossed her arms, and her logic was sound. But the problem was, the God-Worshipping Cult and the official authorities weren't on the same page! Okay… let's assume that due to issues with cultivation resources, some members of the God-Worshipping Cult chose to cooperate!
But if it's like this...

"Old Su and Old Lu, one of them seems to be in trouble! The Cardinal seems to be in trouble! The seven great families seem to be in trouble..."

"Can anyone tell me, what else hasn't gone wrong?"

Chu Zhu wanted to laugh for a moment. How did things get so complicated... that it felt like the whole world was going to be their enemy?
Chu Zhu took out her phone and fell into deep thought: "No, there's another brand new verification method!"

Chu Zhu took a deep breath. In her next life, she would have Zhang Hai contact the Archbishop of the God Worshipping Society in Tianjing... No! There was an even more direct and straightforward method.

Chu Zhu dialed a brand new phone number without hesitation, and the call was immediately disconnected a moment later.

"?" Chu Zhu was stunned for a moment, her expression becoming subtle: "Alright! This situation... is not unexpected."

Pinching her brow, Chu Zhu dialed a completely new phone number. This time, it rang three times before being answered immediately: "Who exactly are you?"

The voice carried both confusion and vigilance!

"Qian Shi!" Chu Zhu said leisurely, "Was it you who hung up and I made the call to the Pope?"

At this point, Chu Zhu naturally chose to... tell her parents.

The Pope! Or rather... the Pope of Light.

The leader of the Western faction of the God Worshipping Society in Tianjing, and an undisputed giant in Tianjing and even the Jiangnan region.

Even the Governor-General of Jiangnan held him in the highest esteem!
In the secular religious sphere, those who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him can be counted on one hand.

Only in the capital city, at the head of the indigenous sect of the God-Worshipping Society, who was practically appointed as the Imperial Preceptor, could he be compared to the likes of the leaders of the Mohist, Agricultural, and Buddhist sects!
Chu Zhu had met him, though briefly... but she did gain a fairly deep understanding of him. It could be said that Chu Zhu's current positive perception of the God Worshipping Society was largely due to this pope.

He was genuinely compassionate and empathetic, advocating for universal harmony and showing great care for the working class and peasantry... In fact, when Chu Zhu mentioned the theology of liberation to him, the other party didn't even get angry—the theology of liberation was truly digging into the roots of religion! Although, after mentioning it... the Pope of Light also partially severed ties with him. Recalling the past, Chu Zhu's expression became complicated.

After a brief silence...

The other end asked again, but the tone was completely different from the first time: "Who exactly are you?!"

Qian Shi, that's not his real name... the person opposite him just has the surname Qian! The "Shi" in his name represents his position—Papal Attendant. You could roughly understand it as the Pope's secretary or attendant.

“Qian Shi,” Chu Zhuping said calmly, “I advise you to hand the phone over to the Pope as soon as possible! Otherwise… your great cause in Jinghai City will be destroyed! Even the foundation of the God Worshipping Society in Jiangnan will be shaken.”

"...Are you exaggerating?" The person on the other end, sensing something amiss, sneered. Not even intending to continue the conversation, just as he pressed the hang-up button, Chu Zhu slowly added, "Your Bishop Hu is planning to recreate the Tianjing smog disaster of eleven years ago in Jinghai, and he's even colluding with the Omnipotent faction! You really don't care?"

Qian Shi's movements were stiff. After a long silence, he finally said, "I will inform the Pope of this matter. You should wait for the written notification."

Chu Zhu listened to the other end of the phone hang up and felt a slight headache: "That old man, still the same as always... I guess he didn't believe me at all!"

Chu Zhu felt a pang of regret. If this were Jinghai City, he could easily reveal some of the bigwigs' secrets and then gain their control. But Tianjing… he simply didn't know as much as he did in Jinghai!

At most, all he knew was that Qian had three concubines, earned several million Qian coins through intelligence, and had converted all of it into cash and hidden it in a small villa in the suburbs.

The problem is... you can't use this thing to threaten people!
As a prominent figure serving the Pope, even without the title of bishop, his status was comparable to that of a bishop. He was, by nature, an extension of papal power…

In this situation, these things weren't even fatal to him... because for a figure comparable to a bishop, these things were really not much! Making money from intelligence, what can you say? As for keeping three concubines... it's still better than those who keep little boys, right?
Even if you complain to the Pope, the worst you'll get is a minor punishment!
So saying this... is most likely to cause the other party to react negatively.

Yes… Chu Zhu understood Qian Shi’s personality. Being accepted as a servant by the Pope meant he wasn’t a bad person, but his personality was too strong. He wouldn’t respond to force!

Direct threats and coercion... will only lead to a complete breakdown in relations!
"Fine! Now that I've said it, I'll definitely be able to inform the Pope today. After all, given his personality, even if he said it casually, he wouldn't go back on his word... I just don't know when the Pope will give me a definite answer..." Chu Zhu tapped her arms lightly with her fingers. "Otherwise, I'll just stay hidden at the Nuwa base and see... what kind of arrangements there are today."

Chu Zhu stared intently with a solemn expression at the drone that had already flown above the large factory, following his instructions.

Currently, the projected image... is working perfectly!
"Hopefully, even the Pope won't be involved!" Chu Zhu's feelings were complicated. Based on past experience, he didn't want to believe the Pope was guilty, but the current situation suggested that the other party was indeed a suspect...

If the situation really gets that bad...

Chu Zhu fell into deep thought: "Could it be that I really have to go and join the Mohist Master?"
