Players' NPC boss

The pope has become the boss, and only foreigners will be happy.

The actual power of the Holy Cross is basically in the hands of the cardinals and the families that have accumulated huge wealth. The pope is just a symbol.

But the pope symbolizes the faith of the Holy Cross itself.

He has no power, but he can lead the masses with just one sentence.

With such appeal, it doesn't matter whether he has actual power or not. Without the help of the people, even the king is just a nominal position.

If the pope really becomes the boss, there will generally be two situations.

The people successfully get rid of their deep-rooted trust in the pope and see through the pope's true face. Then the wealthy families lurking in the Holy Cross take advantage of the situation to rise up, establish themselves as kings, and start a chaotic war and hegemony stage, and the people are living in misery.

This is a good situation.

For a bad ending, refer to the tricks of the devil Paine in the Holy Cross. The entire huge, ancient Holy Cross became a terrible cult nest that occupies one-third of the continent.

No matter which situation it is, it is not a problem that can be solved by just rushing in and killing the pope.

"The current pope is 105 years old, and he is a real ancestor in the Holy Cross, where the average age is 65." Herbie spread his hands, his tone full of helplessness.

"He became the pope when he was 60 years old, and the backbone of the Holy Cross can be said to have grown up under the glory of the pope."

"Even Anderson and Ryan, two talented characters, chose to abandon their faith under great stimulation. Normal believers in the Holy Cross will generally collapse and give up thinking."

"Is it so exaggerated?" For Blazer, a native of the Giant Kingdom, he did not understand the value of faith.

"Do you know why the Holy Cross can tolerate the existence of wealthy families who only talk about faith but actually have no faith at all, and even exploit believers?"

"..." Blazer was silent for a while, and put his hand on the luminous magic tool. His hand cast a huge shadow on the room, and only Herbie's position had a little light.

He is not that stupid boy anymore, so he knows why.

Those wealthy families took advantage of people's faith and took away people's wealth like harvesting sheep's hair, but did not hurt their lives.

The poor life just now forced people to pursue the illusory candlelight and spiritual wealth, and gradually they got used to it.

The wealthy families and the Holy Cross Church demanded wealth and status on one side and the firm faith of believers on the other side.

At first glance, the Holy Cross Church seemed to be in a completely disadvantaged state, but considering the remnant of the Age of Gods behind it, Theresa was different. They maintained a mutually beneficial and win-win relationship.

Are the people caught between the two victims? Not really, they were born and raised in such a living environment.

In the eyes of people in other regions, the custom of the people of Jiansi being with their childhood sweethearts is also a bad habit, not free at all.

"This matter...can't be solved by assassinating the Pope."

"The Pope's appeal is enough to make believers continue to follow the Pope's words and deeds after his death."

"Then we can't tell the strangers, at least we can't tell the strangers before we know the Pope's details."

The strangers are really not patient, so let them find the final boss step by step. If they are told directly where the final boss is, the strangers will only have the idea of ​​rushing over and killing the final boss directly.

If the strangers know that the current final boss is the much-anticipated Pope, then a large number of strangers will start to openly assassinate the Holy City.

Fortunately, the strangers are sometimes very slow, not sensitive to some abnormal events, and are easily diverted.

"Actually, I just want to discuss something with you. [Hermes's Travel Hat] is short of money."

[Hermes's Travel Hat] is buying towns, villages, and even castles along a straight line that will rise up the World Light Wall.

The amount of money required is probably several times more than the mountains of gold and silver that Blaze dreamed of when he fell asleep. And this is actually a loss-making business. [Hermes's Travel Hat] may not be able to receive direct returns in decades.

"Then do you want me to take on a few monster-killing commissions?" Blaze replied. The only way he could help was to kill the legendary monsters in the bounty.

"Stupid~ The bounty you got from killing those monsters was still paid by our guild. Even if you sold those materials, it was still our guild that had the ability to buy them." Herbie sighed helplessly. The dilemma encountered by [Hermes's Travel Hat] was quite speechless.

As the world's largest chamber of commerce, it controls the flow of almost every gold coin. Even the three major kingdoms are not richer than [Hermes's Traveling Hat].

But becoming the world's richest man also means maintaining the economic system of the entire world. Most of the seemingly amazing wealth hoarded is real estate that cannot be easily used.

Although the liquidity that can be dispatched at will is still huge, it cannot withstand the current extravagant behavior.

"So... cough cough cough, we are in urgent need of some great good people, cough cough, those who are willing to work for free cough cough, or even pay to work... Oh, where can we find those great heroes... I'm so distressed, such good people can only come from another world..."

Hebi's big eyes turned quickly, and the smile on his face was a bright hint.

[Hermes's Travel Hat] can afford the burden of buying a city, but buying a city alone is not enough.

After the earth turned upside down, on the one hand, the terrible environment brought monsters to invade the top world, and on the other hand, part of the top world entered the terrible environment and had to face monster attacks in an area twice as large as its own.

So [Hermes's Travel Hat] tried to build a defense project on the basis of buying land, which was dozens of times more expensive than buying land, and it was almost impossible to complete.

It took several years for the Giant Kingdom to build the wall surrounding the Nemean Forest, and now [Hermes's Travel Hat] plans to directly build two walls across the world, and in the future, more walls will be built in the face of a large number of monster invasions.

This horrible project that cannot be described even in the Arabian Nights and the idiot's dream can be said to be left to the descendants hundreds of years later, because it cannot be completed without hundreds of years.

Even the [Hermes' Traveling Hat] does not have such manpower and resources, unless the people doing these are strangers.
