From the God of Lies to the Lord of All Worlds

Chapter 104 Re-establishing Papal Order
The Vatican's materials are, of course, also Bai Yang's masterpiece.

However, this information was not found by him guiding the group of people, but rather by the power of "Divine Fire".

As he fed more and more historical and contemporary elements, Divine Fire gradually gained the ability to truly manipulate the world.

Especially when Bai Yang established the name and image of God as "Jehovah," it was already destined that the way Divine Fire acted would be based on the "Papal Court."

This is easy to understand. As an extension of divine authority, the Papacy, this behemoth, must not collapse, so it must perpetuate its sanctity.

It was this coincidence that allowed Pope Mario to make a near-perfect prophecy in front of many divine inspirations and the golden-haired leader of a great nation.

Bai Yang knew about this, of course. He came here as a spectator to watch the "Divine Fire" performance. In the future, this flame will truly evolve into an infinite authority called "God". This is just a small test.

Even in the presence of many extraordinary beings, this pope, who did not possess any "holy light," was shrouded in a shadow called "prophecy."

This is actually a way of reinforcing the sacred attributes of the Papacy.

"Not bad, you're starting to show signs of strategic planning!" Bai Yang said with a smile, "but you're still far from it. After all, you haven't condensed a divine spark yet, so you don't have the ability to bestow power!"

He gazed at the fiercely burning flames before him and decided to make the fire burn even more intensely. So he waved his hand, and the crystal on Caroline's chest rose up once more.

At this moment, the six people were still in the office, but the blond man had already led people to the conference room to deal with the matter of the "revival of the vampire progenitor". The only official member who remained here was the deputy commander, Qian Si.

Qian Si was stunned by what he saw. This was an extraordinary event happening right before his eyes, leaving him completely bewildered.

At that moment, the translucent crystal with a luminous cross inside slowly rose up.

The white light shone on the six people, making them feel a sense of warmth, but it also made Caroline's expression slightly strange.

"The darkness is growing ever deeper, and the forces of light should unite to protect this world!" Caroline said slowly.

All eyes turned to her. Seeing that the girl had closed her eyes, as if she were reading information from the light, no one dared to say anything.

As everyone knows, Caroline is the girl, vessel, and divine inspiration acknowledged by Archangel Gabriel, and can even be said to be the most revered being present besides Pope Mario.

If this were the Middle Ages, she would probably have been canonized as a saint long ago. Although she hasn't been canonized yet, she is widely recognized as a "divine inspiration" or "prophet."

Now is the moment for her to read the "divine will".

"The boundaries of Heaven will be blurred, and the power of the Holy Light will descend once the commandments are fulfilled!"

After she finished speaking, the crystal stopped shining and instead absorbed the light, which then returned to her.

"Sister Caroline, what does this mean?" Bishop Jared asked, actually asking on behalf of Pope Mario, which was considered perceptive.

“Teacher Angus, didn’t you say that I have the potential to impart discipline to people?” Caroline suddenly asked Father Angus.

“Yes!” Angus nodded. “You possess the power given by the Lord. The commandments are the words and commands given by the Lord. All who obey them shall receive His commandments, in His name!”

“Now, I possess this power!” This was the reason for Caroline's strange expression. “Not because I have met the minimum requirements, but because the world faces the threat of darkness!”

Angus nodded, looking at the crowd. He could see the curiosity in their eyes, and said, "Caroline has the power to bestow holy light upon people. This is the Lord's right, to grant every devout believer the power of holy light!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Si couldn't help but exclaim, "Doesn't that mean we can directly obtain more extraordinary individuals?"

“Yes!” Angus nodded. “Theoretically speaking, that’s correct!”

"That's great..." Qian Si quickly stepped forward, "I wonder, am I qualified?"

“Perhaps not enough!” Angus said decisively. “Your Excellency, you must understand: it’s not that you gain power by giving the precepts, but that you gain power by obeying the precepts!”

"What do you mean?" Qian Si didn't understand.

"Humility, honesty, mercy, courage, justice, sacrifice, honor, and soul—these are the virtues of chivalry, and also the commandments of chivalry. If someone can fulfill these commandments while having faith in the Lord, he is qualified to be a knight!" Lyon explained from the side. "To dedicate oneself without expecting anything in return, to discern right from wrong without speaking recklessly, to act for the glory of God, to be worthy of His calling, the standard of the children of light… those who can fulfill these commandments are qualified to be saints!" George added from the side.

“Now that we have been called, our actions should be in accordance with this gift.” Mario understood, and a look of curiosity suddenly appeared on his face. “Then what if we force it if it doesn’t…”

"The Holy Flame will show them the consequences of deceiving the Lord!" Angus said coldly.

None of the four of them actually objected to this, since those trained according to the precepts would become devout believers, powerful warriors, brave knights, and dutiful bishops.

Those were their fellow travelers, the people they should trust most on their faith journey; they could only feel happy.

"What are the commandments?" Qian Si was still somewhat unwilling. He knew that he could neither become a knight nor a saint, so he could only take other paths.

“There are also bishop’s rules, pastor’s rules, nun’s rules, etc…” Caroline said, “Believers should constantly shape themselves on the path of truth, with light as their armor, so that every action shines with God’s glory.”

"The night is deep and the day is coming. We should abandon darkness and uphold integrity, distinguish right from wrong with knowledge and insight, and live out the witness of light with a loving heart."

Angus concluded, "It means to use the Bible as a benchmark to demand of oneself, to continuously strive to become a true believer, and ultimately to have the opportunity to receive the commandments!"

Mario understood. "Anyone who accepts the commandments must also be someone who is qualified in every way, right?"

“Yes! The Lord’s light will not be sown on the faithless, the foolish, or the treacherous; only worthy servants can sow the Lord’s glory!” Angus replied. “Your Majesty Mario, will you make a choice?”

“Choice? You mean…” Mario, of course, understood Angus’s implication, “You want to spread the commandments?”

Angus nodded. "Yes, this is the will of the Lord. No one can stop His will from being spread in every region!"

"Darkness is coming, we must hurry and spread light to every region with a faith in the Church!"

"Holy light will grace everyone's face, and the Lord's mercy will make every true believer feel as if they are bathed in a spring breeze!"

After Angus finished speaking, everyone who knew anything about Christianity twitched at the corner of their mouth.

Isn't he clearly saying that there aren't many true believers in the Papacy's religious areas, especially in those churches?

If he continues down this path, how many people will fall from their high positions in the Papacy?

Yes, that's what Angus meant. That's what he thought. Ever since he witnessed that horrific tragedy in San Diego and learned about the crimes committed by those people in the Garden Church, he's had that thought all along!

He was a very devout priest. The children he taught might be naughty, but none of them were of bad character or had bad behavior!

He was desperately teaching others to be "kind," telling them that God loves your kindness!

The result was quite unexpected. These people who called themselves "propagators of the Lord's faith" turned out to be extremely wicked and even evil villains. How could he accept this?

Therefore, the propagation of precepts, which he had originally intended to promote, has now become his legitimate reason!

This reason is righteous and just, and no one can stop him; it is the will of the Holy Light!

But from another perspective, isn't this also a special kind of "cleansing"?
However, this kind of cleansing is done in the name of the Lord, based on goodness, and guided by the will!

"In other words, the improvement of faith and personal qualities will upgrade the power of the precepts?" Pope Mario suddenly asked.

“Yes!” Angus replied.

"Then I agree to your plan and allow you to spread the precepts in all the Catholic Churches across this continent!" This ruthless pope made his decision!
Upon hearing this, everyone knew that the order of the Catholic Church was about to be reshaped from this moment on!
