Chen Che glanced thoughtfully at a certain place and saw a new beggar on the street, a beggar who was emaciated, with a sallow face, appearing like a soulless husk.
Like he had lost his soul.
In this state, he probably wouldn't survive two days on the streets before being handled as fuel thrown into the furnace.
Chen Che sensed the aura of Tahm emanating from this beggar.
"That fat catfish... sure had a feast."
Chen Che shook his head; he possessed some of Tahm's abilities and could feel the deep aura of depravity and sin from this person's broken body.
Since Tahm was eating according to his requests, he wouldn't overly govern Tahm.
The city was rife with wicked people anyway.
Perhaps if Tahm devoured a few sinful people, the Ninth Special Zone might become a better place, perhaps even bringing happiness to a few.
Whether that's true or not.
Chen Che wasn't too sure.
...
Peruvian Slums.
Xia Na looked at Chen Che and said, "Are you sure you don't want me to go in with you?"
Chen Che rolled his eyes in exasperation: "You're just here spouting nonsense, well if you go in, everything will be exposed, right?"
"Impertinent, I'm kindly concerned about you, and you don't even know gratitude, serves you right if something happens!"
Chen Che just shook his head with a smile.
He handed Bogita and the Count over to Xia Na and entered the Peruvian Slums alone.
Striding inside, he followed the previous route to knock at the door of the Peruvian Slums.
The door opened.
Many believers were gathered here, all carrying weapons. Seeing this, Chen Che snorted a cold laugh.
Those two Yellow-robed Priests are really afraid of dying.
He noticed that some among them had a special aura.
Judging by their appearance, they should belong to the Blackthorn Team's protection squad.
It seemed that these days, Zhou Shaoyang and the others hadn't been idle, having brought in quite a number of people to protect themselves in the Peruvian Slums.
He again saw Zhou Shaoyang and Arabic.
At the first sight of Chen Che, Zhou Shaoyang ordered, "Kneel down."
Chen Che just looked indifferently at the two, without moving an inch. The two looked at each other and understood simultaneously.
Chen Che's fanaticism and loyalty to the Apocalypse Society had not returned to the previous level.
Otherwise, facing a superior, the order of the Yellow-robed Priest would have a fanatic believer kneeling down without hesitation.
This was an enormous, indisputable class disparity.
"If you have something to say, just say it directly, no need for those pointless formalities."
Hearing Chen Che's words, Zhou Shaoyang narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems you have indeed completely betrayed the Church, your loyalty to the Master of Revelation has sunk to the lowest!"
Chen Che's eyes showed a hint of reverence as he said, "No, I have seen through a lot, now I respect the Master of Revelation, I still believe in the Master of Revelation! But I won't kowtow to you! We are all believers of the Master of Revelation, so why should I bow down to you?
I indeed bear sins, but don't you bear sins too?
Sin is sin; does the magnitude really matter?
Judging hierarchy based on the magnitude of sins, in my view, is laughable!
Because sins can be cleansed through loyalty and devotion to the Master of Revelation! As long as you have enough loyalty and faith in the Master of Revelation, one day you can completely cleanse your sins!
So we are equal, my status isn't much lower than yours!
The true measure of hierarchical disparity should be based on loyalty to the Master of Revelation! Only those more loyal can attain higher status! This is the truth!
I have awakened, can you awaken too?"
Chen Che's face revealed fanaticism, his gaze sweeping over other believers.
Chen Che's perspective, never before heard by other believers, suddenly felt like an epiphany for them, as they had thought their heavy sins should make them bow to those with less sin, but now hearing Chen Che's words, a revelation occurred.
Indeed, as long as they are loyal enough to the Master of Revelation, one day they can wash away their sins.
Would that not make everyone equal?
If those with less sin aren't loyal enough to the Master of Revelation, wouldn't they never cleanse their sins, and how then can they lord it over them?
At this moment, many believers' gazes changed, looking at the two Yellow-robed Priests with less conviction and loyalty.
Even the Blackthorn Team's eyes showed a hint of confusion.
Zhou Shaoyang listened to Chen Che's discourse, stunned and not yet coming to terms. However, Arabic was looking drastically different.
What nonsense is Chen Che spouting?
He sharply noticed the change in surrounding believers' gazes, understanding Chen Che's damning words were shaking the foundations of the existing Apocalypse Society Church!
Damn!
Arabic shouted, "Shut up! You're defying the Pope's decree!"
Seeing their panic and the change in the surrounding believers, Chen Che smiled with a smirk at the corners of his mouth.
Heh, want to play games with me?
It's just the difference between Mahayana Buddhism and Theravada Buddhism after all!
I'll play you to death!
"The Pope? To me, the Pope is the greatest blasphemer, who is he to call himself the Pope? The Master of Revelation is the source of our beliefs! He should also call himself a believer, what's with the emperor title?
Our loyalty belongs to the Master of Revelation, our faith belongs to the Master of Revelation, so why must we sometimes stay loyal to the Pope?
Does he want to be a tyrant emperor, does he attempt to manipulate the believers of the Master of Revelation?
Then isn't he the greatest traitor?
I am loyal only to the Master of Revelation!"
At this moment, Zhou Shaoyang came back to his senses, shivering with fear.
This madman dared to defy the Pope's authority!
"Shut up! Shut up! the Pope is not to be defiled by you, the Pope voluntarily came from Eden to this world, for the sake of redeeming us!"
"Bullshit! By being loyal to the Master of Revelation, we can achieve self-redemption, why do we need his redemption? What does he count as?!"
