Chapter 328 Original Sin
"last question."

The Pope held out a finger and looked at the last six people standing in front of him.

Fifteen people participated in the selection, and after two rounds, there were only six people left. It seemed that the elimination rate was very low, but it depended on who these candidates were.

They are all eligible for this candidate qualification after careful recommendation and screening from among the 10 people in the highest education. If it weren't for the strangeness of the two assessments, it would not be too much for all of them to pass.

And now, it's time for the final decision of life and death.

"The last question, what is your greatest pursuit as a person?"

The pope smiled, and the indifferent temperament of a middle-aged man was vividly reflected in him, which made people unconsciously maintain a good impression.

But his question...

"To the Pope, my pursuit is to contribute everything I have to the revival of mankind!" Among the six people, a burly man puffed up his chest first, and rushed to answer.

"Sacrifice? Not bad."

The pope nodded with a smile, and looked at the next person.

"Don't worry, think about it slowly, think it through before you talk."

"I, I, I..." The face of the man he looked at became more and more reddened, and finally he gritted his teeth and said:
"I just want to climb higher, have higher rights, and not let others dictate my destiny!"

Whoa!
This man is so honest!Can this kind of words be said?

Even if you really think so, you have to hide it in your heart, and try to answer as close as possible to the previous answer, not to mention that you are facing the Pope!
Don't want to be dominated?

Does that mean you don’t want to be controlled by the Pope?

Everyone looked at the knight in admiration or surprise.

As an enthusiastic and caring colleague, he wholeheartedly contributes to the Supreme Education, and his reputation is so high that more than half of the people present know him as a good example. What is he thinking in his heart?

"Machinery? It's okay, how about you?"

The Pope nodded, not angry or annoyed, but looked at the last of the three knights.

"Report to the Pope, from the moment I was rescued by the Supreme Cult, I made up my mind. I will be a member of the Supreme Cult all my life. Your instructions are my pursuit!"

The answer was an elegant man wearing glasses. He was the one who covered his face and held his head throughout the whole process. It can be seen that his skills are indeed not very good, but when his special skills were demonstrated, his command skills had passed. Official verification.

"Are you grateful? Yes."

The Pope nodded and looked at Lin Guiyao and the others, but the first person he looked at was Zhao Qiang: "Your murderous intent is very heavy, and your answer is revenge, right?"

Zhao Qiang was stunned for a moment, then turned his head away.

While this may seem rude, his actions speak for themselves.

Two months ago, he was an arrogant young man waiting to die, but now, he only has one goal left, which is to avenge Li Ba.

"What about you, little girl?"

Zhao Ziyue raised her head and glanced at Lin Guiyao before turning to the Pope:

"I want to... find myself."

Lin Guiyao frowned and looked at Zhao Ziyue, but she didn't expect her answer to be this.

Lin Guiyao didn't know that Zhao Ziyue was a poor person who was framed and became an orphan because of her talent. Although she also had a deep hatred that she had to avenge, she was even more confused about how to face herself who killed her parents.

She thinks more than Zhao Qiang who wants revenge. What will she do after her revenge?
Should it continue as a sharp sword for others, or should it fold on itself and be hidden in the years?
The original intention of using Lin Guiyao's power to facilitate his revenge has long since changed. The heart that must take revenge has also become dull in the worry of whether it will bring trouble to Hope City and Lin Guiyao.

she is confused,

She was also confused.

"Ego, um." The pope frowned rarely, but he didn't comment too much, but looked at the last person,
Lin Guiyao.

"What about you? What is your pursuit?"

The Pope smiled slightly at Lin Guiyao. Lin Guiyao and him looked at each other, froze for a moment, and then straightened his brows.

"I have only one pursuit, to live and live well."

"Bah! One is only interested in revenge and has no clear goal in life, and the other is so awesome that he just wants to live? Why don't you say that your breathing will not stop and your heart will not stop? How is this a pursuit? It is not noble at all!"

"Yes! How can such a person become a knight of glory, the pope will announce the result!"

"Although Su Qian is devoted to power, he has really done a lot for the Supreme Religion. Besides, there is no conflict at all between pursuing power and serving the Supreme Religion! I think he is good enough to pass!"

"Pursuing is too humble and selfish. Such a person should not be our role model. I ask the Pope to decide!"

"Ask the Pope to make a decision!"

The onlookers criticized Lin Guiyao and the others for their pursuit one by one. No matter whether it was justified or unreasonable, they didn't want a foreign teacher to be mixed into the Knights of Glory.

This is a shame for them, and it is a great irony that they have worked so hard without reward!
They can't wait to see the trio tied up on the stake!

The Pope was not angry, but waved his hands, and after the quarrel subsided, he said slowly:
"Entering my supreme teaching, knowing that people are human, these two sentences are a teaching of our supreme teaching. But this deed is not for someone's deed, but for becoming deeds, and these two people refer to themselves , at the very beginning of our supreme teaching, we recognized the fact that human beings have original sin."

He glanced at the people present, and saw that they didn't understand. He sighed and continued:
"This original sin is the ego. To put it bluntly, it is selfishness. Whether it is scheming, revenge, or just pursuing the existence of self, it is selfish, even sacrifice and gratitude are selfish. You are nothing more than the psychology of pursuing self. Just satisfied.

And the pursuit itself is selfish.

No one is higher than the other, and no one is lower than the other. In my opinion, they are all different manifestations of the same thing.The difference lies in how firm your pursuit is, whether it will affect others, and whether you are willing to admit it. "

"And just now, there were three people who did not admit their inner thoughts, so the last three people who passed the test were..."

"Lin Guiyao, Zhao Ziyue, Zhao Qiang!"

Whoa!
Although they were a little dizzy by the Pope's long speech, they still heard the last sentence clearly, and the three foreign teachers were all selected!

How is this possible, how is this possible!

"My lord Pope, this answer doesn't convince me. I need an explanation, and everyone needs an explanation!" Su Qian knelt on one knee, but her eyes were fixed on the Pope.

He is the candidate knight who exposed himself as pursuing power!
