Chapter 990 The Church of the True God
After entering the congress hall, Zhou Ning glanced at the seats, which were all empty.
Less than half of the 640 members of parliament at its peak remain, with the remaining members mostly stripped of their seats because they died in the disaster, believed in hostile religions, or were pro-Brexton royals.
Before the establishment of the new kingdom, they did not have any arbitrary power such as legislative power and decision-making power. The parliament was only symbolic, and the real decision-making power lay with the three popes of the three major churches.
It can be said that now theocracy completely overrides royal power.
Even the Speaker of the National Assembly, Ulysses, sat in his seat with a slight uneasiness. When he saw Zhou Ning and the others file into the National Assembly, he hurriedly led the members to stand up and salute these angels walking among the mortals.
Among the crowd, Zhou Ning spotted the fat boy Alan West at a glance. This was his first friend after coming to this world. He was standing in the third row among the parliamentarians, looking at him with complicated eyes.
“It seems like everyone has grown up!”
Zhou Ning sighed inwardly, nodded to him calmly, and sat in the middle seat.
As mentioned before, in this world of extraordinary beings, the change of kings is not uncommon, including in kingdoms. The Windsor Republic in the east of the continent has seen its kingship change four times in a single year.
Regarding the details of the kingdom change, Ulysses and others had already come up with three basic plans two days ago. Congress Speaker Ulysses first glanced at Dolent, Zhou Ning and others, then said in a deep voice:
"This meeting will mainly discuss proposals concerning the New Kingdom."
"We currently have two plans. The first is to abolish the monarchy and return to a republic, just like the Byron Republic and the Windsor Republic. The second is to convert the monarchy into a theocracy. The three churches would rotate as Pope. This has precedent, such as the former Sea Kingdom of Revendreth. Over a hundred years ago, they were jointly governed by the Council of Knowledge and the Church of Poseidon."
This... After hearing these two sets of plans, many uninformed parliamentarians present looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"I vote for the first plan..." A council member raised his hand to vote, but was met with looks of insanity from the others. He then put his hand down in embarrassment.
Frankly speaking, the first set of plans is more in line with their interests, but the times are not as good as before, and they do not have enough say. Today's parliament is no longer the same as before.
The members present had basically learned about the entire incident through various channels. Unlike the Darkland disaster, this incident was a religious war destined to go down in history, with more than one righteous god involved and more than one righteous god falling.
King Charles VII had to pay for his ambition and madness. He stood on the wrong side, which led to the destruction of the entire Kingdom of Braxton. Therefore, everyone could only stand on the side of the winner.
In fact, most people have already made a judgment in their minds about how to choose the direction of the kingdom.
Ulysses coughed dryly and raised his hand.
"I personally prefer the second plan, and voting is now underway."
Although it was only symbolic, almost everyone present raised their hands, and after wavering for a while, a few opponents were forced to raise their right hands.
Zhou Ning's expression remained calm. Frankly speaking, the theocracy form was indeed the most helpful to him and Starry Sky. This meant that Starry Sky would become one of the three official churches that ruled the kingdom. At least there would be no more constraints in recruiting believers. With his prestige in Darkland and the Kingdom of Blyston, his development would at least not lag behind that of the Church of the God of War.
When everyone turned their attention to the three popes, Dorent was the first to raise his right hand and said slowly:
"I also agree with the second plan. What belongs to the world should remain worldly, and what belongs to God should remain with God. It's time to return the power of this kingdom to God."
"I agree with the second plan." Stuart Crow also raised his hand.
Zhou Ning was silent for two seconds, then raised his hand: "I agree."
Jasmine, Gallup III, and Meredith followed suit. After a heated discussion, it was finally decided that this new nation, ruled by the three major churches, would be officially established on August 1453, 8, and named the New Brystonian Papal State. The first king would be Dorent, who would serve every five years.
Zhou Ning had no objection; he had little interest in becoming king and ruling a kingdom. The singularity of fate was November 1457, 11. From then on, the fate of the kingdom would be left to time.
His goal from the beginning to the end was only one: to improve himself, become a god, and uncover the secrets behind this world. As for whether he could return to reality, to be honest, he no longer cared much.
Afterwards, the three major churches participated in the discussion and divided their respective dioceses. The Ascetic Church basically maintained its current diocese and even gave up part of it; the God of War Church acquired part of the diocese given up by the Ascetic Church, as well as all the remaining dioceses of the God of the Sea Church in the Kingdom of Blyston.
The Starry Sky Church acquired several important dioceses of the Goddess of Life, including the North and South West Counties and the southern coastal county of Colerulhei. This also foreshadowed that the Church of the Goddess of Life had completely degenerated into a secret sect, while the Starry Sky Church had reached the level of a true church.
The ratio of parishes divided by the three major churches is roughly 4:3:3, which is generally fair.
After the meeting ended, Zhou Ning followed Jasmine out of the congress hall. Outside, a crowd of people had gathered for some unknown reason. Zhou Ning heard their voices gradually grow louder and louder, echoing throughout the hall:
"Wayne Stewell! Starry Sky Church!"
"Wayne Stewell! Starry Sky Church!"
Zhou Ning smiled and lowered the brim of his hat with his hand.
After everything was settled, he discovered that the camp panel was flooded with prompts.
[On July 1453, 7, the Starry Sky Church accomplished a glorious feat!]
[Glorious Deeds - Orthodox Church: Thanks to the combined efforts of Wayne Stewell, Jasmine, Leandro, and the Chosen Ones, the Starry Sky Church defeated the Church of the Goddess of Life and the Church of the Sea God in the religious war and became an Orthodox Church. This is a glorious deed, foreshadowing the Starry Sky Church becoming one of the only six Orthodox Churches remaining in the Apocalypse World. Your great deeds will be sung forever.]

Looking at the thriving data of the Starry Sky Church, Zhou Ning smiled as he walked through the crowd. Becoming a true god church was only the beginning of the Starry Sky Church, but it would never be the end.
……
The alarm clock dinged, finally the maintenance was over! Jinse turned off the alarm, took a few bites of food, and quickly turned off the phone in the bathroom. She immediately lay down in the diving cabin and began to connect to the world of "Apocalypse".
After not playing games for over 24 hours, she felt so depressed that her period was almost out of balance.
"Updating..."
"Update completed..."
"Connecting to server."
"Welcome to the world of Apocalypse 3.0!"
