Standard Terra Calendar 992.M41, Storm Star Field, St. Casparen Parish, Cardinal World St. Casparen

When the silver-gray stormbird's plasma engine buzzed like a muffled thunder in the stratosphere, four thunder eagles had cut the milky white clouds of San Caspalen in advance in front of it.

At this time, St. Casparen was already very different from the Tyron War period. Although it was still the holy and natural religious world, two hundred and fifty kilometers away from the Holy City, there was an already-developed airport standing, which stabbed into the sky like a sharp needle. When it was the busiest, transport ships rose and fell from around it like busy bees, but now it was just silent.

The sky of the entire cardinal world was cleared out just to welcome that person.

The snow-white holy city was now filled with colorful flags and streamers. The spires of all spires were filled with flags of the Astral Knights and the National Church. All the streets and gardens were cleaned, like a brand new diamond.

Although the atmosphere is so warm, the atmosphere in the Grey Eagle Temple at the highest point of the Holy City is quite tense. This semi-open huge vaulted hall was specially built for the saviors of the Catholic Diocese of St. Casparon. At this time, the place is extremely quiet. Those who are qualified to stand here are all the highest-ranking members of the cardinal world class, including the new patriarch Saint Livend and his deacon, as well as the two knights of the Knights of Silence, the nine marshals who watch over faith, etc., but the most important ones are the knights of the Astral Realm and the company commanders of the White Temple.

The floor was filled with colorful colors, and all people were crowded on both sides of the hall, leaving a wide aisle in the middle for the coming guests, while the Space Marines stood in front.

As the roar of the engine gradually approached, all the bronze bells in the Holy City also rang neatly at the same time, responding to the landing gear smashing on the apron, making a loud collision sound.

Then came the creaking sound of heavy metal boots rubbing against the smooth stones. As always, the Terminator Guards took the lead and lined up to form. Finally, Soshiyan, wearing a star-falling armor, appeared from the stormbird's cabin. His scarlet cloak roared in the wind where the engine gradually weakened, and seemed to resonate with the singing of millions of believers near the Holy City.

This was also the first time St. Livingde saw this legendary commander of the Astart battle. He looked very handsome but did not have the inhuman oppression of other Astarts. His skin seemed quite young, his short hair was black. His eyes were also black, his cheekbones were wide, and his chin was slightly square.

This is a very standard warrior's face, but his eyes reveal a kind of wisdom, which looks thoughtful, rather than ruthless.

As the rumor is, he is a warrior like a king, not a simple warrior. When the new patriarch stared at Soshiyang for the first time, he felt a feeling of not fear, but a condolence, or surrender.

"Look! The great messenger of the God Emperor has arrived!"

After tremblingly chanting, the patriarch, surrounded by incense and wrapped in gorgeous red and golden robe, fell to the ground in an extremely silky manner, and the others behind him followed suit - except for the knights of the silent Knights who were half-kneeling.

Soshiyang's head turned slightly, his eyes swept over the kneeling people, whose foreheads were pressed against the ground as precise as a servant.

The Patriarch Ignatius II died two years ago and died. After his death, the State Church quickly appointed a new Patriarch. Since the cathedral is directly under the state religion, the highest personnel appointment and removal here still belongs to the headquarters of the State Church, but in order to balance local interests, the respected bishop will be chosen from the local area to succeed him.

However, this time the Pope, who was far away in Terra, made a different arrangement. He directly landed a patriarch from the Taiping Star Domain. Perhaps he also considered that the Knights of the Astral Realm had been in the Cathedral for more than ten years or had heard some rumors, so he was not at ease with the local bishops of the Cathedral and would rather challenge the tradition.

But is this useful?

One, but not much.

The premise of airborne is to have strength as a backing. If the Knights of Silence are all present, the new patriarch who has arrived will indeed form a new force.

Unfortunately, similar to the problems encountered by Soshiyan, there are many variables on the National Church, especially the Galaxy and the Empire became more turbulent at the end of the 41st thousand years. Many state church strongholds, religious worlds and even nun headquarters were besieged and invaded, and many problems needed to be solved privately by the National Church itself. For example, a religious world named Weitarn, and the battle nun fortresses defending there fell into the control of gene thieves. There are rumors that some nuns have rebelled and controlled by alien forces, and even more blasphemous behavior - they have produced descendants with alien bloodlines.

Although Astarte rebelled during the reign of the Cultivation, the Space Marines were not afraid or shame to mention such topics. However, the National Church is different. The National Church is the most shameful imperial faction, especially when it comes to combat nuns, and there is no slight stain. The combat nuns will never betray them, nor can they be betrayed. This fig leaf cannot be abandoned by the National Church. Therefore, this situation must be erased strongly and must be carried out secretly. Otherwise, once other factions in the empire catch this little braid, the Pope, who represents the highest power of the National Church, will be controlled by others in the eternal game and struggle of the High Lords Council.

So the Knights of Silence only left two brothers in the Great Diocese, and all the others were transferred to deal with the shameful stains and secrets of the National Church.

The two brotherhoods were a bit too much, which also led to the patriarch Saint Livend, who had descended from the Taiping Star Realm, finding his situation a little embarrassed. Originally, he was proud. After all, he was born in an ancient priest family, with his connections and outstanding abilities, especially his political ability and conspiracy and mind, and when he was just over forty, he sat in the position of a cardinal in the religious world. He could be said to have a bright future. This time he was transferred to be a patriarch, and he would have a high probability of going to the headquarters of the National Church in Terra in the future. He would be dressed in the luxurious red cannon above billions of people. Even if he could not win the position of the Pope, he could still occupy a place in the Pope Cardinals. This is almost the pinnacle of the priest.

But the premise is that he has to do well and not make any mistakes. The higher the position, the more he is, the more he cannot accept failure.

But as Terra's influence faded in the diocese, St. Livingde found that it was difficult for him to carry out the diocese. Although the deacon was mainly based on him on the surface, no military and political order could be carried out without the company commander Ustad, let alone the Holy Flame Clan that suddenly spread like wildfire in the diocese.

Just by looking at the doctrine, Saint Livend knew that this thing was purely a puppet created by some Astat monk!
