Because the truth itself is powerful
This pontiff really has extraordinary confidence and courage-he always gives priority to his newly completed technology instead of looking for consumption to carry out experiments. Without sufficient confidence and courage, it is absolutely impossible to do so.
Only from this line can Russell taste the logic of the "promoted" bottom line and his personality.
-The old Pope should be a recluse.
He didn’t want to use this technology to fight against the mage, but because he realized that there seems to be something wrong with the "God" that the church believes in.
At that time, "Father Andrew" was quite iron-headed. At that time, even the bishop was not just an ordinary priest, but he dared to bring up the topic of "exploring the quality of the holy rank", asking for the materials of the dead souls of saints and modifying the will of human personality-
At that time, the church was not called Cyber Church, nor did it have the ultimate goal of "Cyber Eternal Life". They were really old-fashioned and inclined to the old-fashioned church group.
Andrew’s trip is no longer a taboo in the ordinary sense. It can even be said that he is lucky if he is not dead.
He can drum up this technology by himself, saying that he probably doesn’t have any friends, and even he can do the experiment himself in the end. After this thing was made, he went directly to the Pope at that time … That said, he didn’t have any emotional intelligence at all.
This is obviously because Andrew is very simple-he thinks this is the truth of the holy rank, and he feels that he is right after studying it. He is so afraid that he has not even found a backstage and agent.
In order to prevent someone from getting involved or stealing his own research, Andrew went directly to the highest-ranking person in charge without even leaving a successor.
That is to say, that generation of popes was enough, and the pressure from the wizards at that time was enough, otherwise Andrew would never be alive.
Then, after the death of the Pope, Andrew, the hero, became the Pope, but he never let go after more than a hundred years-not because he had a strong desire, but because he did not allow the church to produce the slightest distortion.
It is very normal to change the pope, and the change of attitude and operation strategy brought about by changing the pope is also very reasonable
Because the Cyber Church is an organization after all … It is normal for an organization to constantly cater to the changes of the times and make adjustments, even if it changes with time and its personality means.
But Andrew wouldn’t allow anything to change.
He even sent a divine device to brainwash himself to maintain the purity of his position, and finally kept the Cyber Church unchanged for a hundred years.
He has an urgent desire to change the world and a superior talent … but he doesn’t have the ability to climb and sublimate the elves, but he has carried out long experimental research alone and finally achieved results, and there is still no one around him.
This is precisely because he is suspicious.
He doesn’t believe that others can inherit the Cyberchurch and make it better. After all, people who have only lived for decades are certainly not as wise and experienced as those who have lived for more than 100 years.
And there is no qualitative difference between this arrogant and confident real elf … just that his body is not an elf.
He is like an ascetic.
Walking barefoot in a thin linen cloth in a desert blowing with hot air, he was happy to see his body was raw and his flesh was dry, and he regarded it as a perfect sublimation of himself, and he regarded his suffering as sacred.
Just as he ruled the highest-level organization of the Seven Islands for more than a hundred years, he was not corrupted and degraded … This hundred years and a day’s holiday is his penance.
The torture made him stronger and unwilling to seek the "deeper truth".
His self-esteem and suspicion made him unwilling to get along with others, so he had no comrades.
"-from this point of view, it is better to say that you want to walk in the way of salvation than to pursue the way of salvation."
After talking about those secrets, while the Pope was silent and thinking, Russell came clean about his psychoanalysis of the Pope. "Because you don’t want to think too much, you want to do it … you will sacrifice the sacredness and treat asceticism as a reward."
"You don’t want the’ best’ result for everyone, but just want to complete a sacred self-sacrifice … From this point of view, you are never a qualified pope. You are still the same as Father Andrew who pursued salvation and wore the crown of’ savior’."
"… you may be right."
After a long silence, "promotion" slowly nodded his head.
He frowned and looked solemn. "But I have to verify whether what you said is correct … [Dusk Egg] Even if what you said is correct, it doesn’t mean that you didn’t hide it in your words.
"Sometimes lying doesn’t need lies, but the truth is more deceptive without some key information, not to mention … your identity makes me unable to trust you completely."
There is a strong hesitation in the Pope’s words.
But Russell smiled when he heard it.
Because he knew … that the Pontifical Pavilion had been shaken.
He didn’t hide his plan, but frankly told the Ministry, "You will say that you will come to our side eventually."
"Because you are pursuing the sacred road of self-sacrifice, you have also sought the truth, but you stopped after you sought this step … what? Because you need to complete the’ sacrifice’ to save the world by the time you get here, you don’t need his truth.
"[Cyberlife] plan-put all human spirits into the machine to make it digital, make people lose their bodies and thus lose their emotional personality, so that the’ dream’ method can continue to track; And combined with human psychic powers to reassemble the’ human god’ to obtain a perpetual motion machine. The general primitive energy pushes the dragon boat to the universe.
"But have you considered it? Is it true that those’ human souls’ on the disk after digitization will not be affected by dreams? Will the polluted ancient gods be reborn when everyone’s dreams are offline and sealed in the dream world?
"The elves really didn’t consider you this plan? Even after the dusk crisis, how can you ensure that mankind can find and reach the new planet safely? Even if we arrive at a new planet, how can we rebuild our home and revive the civilization? Are we really safe after leaving the earth? Will there be a new crisis in the universe? Will elves fall? Will the elves have a war again? Will the human spirit disk go wrong? Is it controlled to piece together a new god? Will it also be polluted by dreams? "
Russell said so many loopholes in one breath and then looked at the old man.
He calmly said, "you may have considered it, but you will ignore it."
"-because you are afraid that if you continue to explore the truth and find the truth, there will be despair, because you are afraid that you can change the mistakes and crisis by your own strength, but you don’t want to trust others … so your pace of exploring the truth suddenly stops at this moment.
"This is not a brave Pope Pavilion. This is cowardice.
"This is an escape-getting great wisdom from penance can’t purify people. You just cover up your confusion through external pain."
"… maybe."
The Pope replied simply.
He was silent for a while and added, "But there is only one thing … I am not unwilling to trust others."
"The accumulated wisdom of the group may be based on the group, but it may also be that more mistakes have been accumulated … Children in your time have not read the history. In the history of ancient humans, all kinds of self-repair of mistakes were carried out through the law of the jungle and the survival of the fittest.
