Full-time Mage: Ice and Snow Emperor

Chapter 557 The 120-year-old Pope
"Church... that old man is still alive?"

Jiang Bai is too familiar with the church that Mu Ningxue said.

Jiang Bai was even familiar with the color of the other Pope's trousers today.

How should I put it... This church is not considered a real force, but an organization formed spontaneously by the people.

Of course, there is the impetus of the Five Continents Magic Association and the Holy City, but no one thought that this church would succeed, and the speed of success was so fast that it surprised everyone.

The Church was born out of the world's need for it, with the Holy City as the main thrust.

In this world, human beings have to face many troubles and enemies. In addition to the troublesome things that life itself needs to experience, such as daily work, cooking, laundry, mopping the floor, housework and taking care of children, this huge pressure and sense of suffocation Under the circumstances, the mood of many ordinary people is very bad and bad.

Not everyone can become a magician, or magicians are still a minority after all.

This world still has the largest number of ordinary people. Internally, there is pressure from life, and externally, there are constant oppression and attacks from demons. Ordinary people have no hope for the future, and they only think about being able to live a day.

At the same time, according to some incomplete judgments, some monsters just eat the negative emotions of human beings.

As long as human beings have more and more negative emotions, those special monsters will become more and more powerful.

With the loss of hope for future life, a large number of ordinary people began to give up on themselves and give up living.

There are gaps in a large number of important positions, and there is no way but to send mages to temporarily replace them.

But...you can't let a mage plant vegetables and dig the ground, let a mage repair the pool and water pipes, let a mage build a house on the construction site, right?
The mage's strength and efficiency are very good, but that's not how it is used.

After taking away a small number of mages to do things, it led to rampant border monsters.

The occurrence of such a situation has caused headaches for the Magic Association of the Five Continents. As the apex of the magical forces in this world, it is good that they have a strong strength, but even if they are strong, they cannot lose the support of ordinary people.

Doesn't the food they eat need no one else to grow and harvest it?

Don't some of the materials and commodities used need to be mined and manufactured by someone?

How many ordinary people are there these days?Billions or tens of billions?

How many mages are there?

According to the normal situation in this world, the probability of a person entering high school is 40%, and the probability of becoming a mage after graduation is also 40%. What does this mean?

A high school has 1000 applicants this year, and only 400 of them can enter in the end. Of these 400 students, only about 160 can become mages in the end, and these 160 are only elementary mages after graduation.

As for why only 40% of the people can enter high school, Jiang Bai is not very clear about it. It may be a problem of resources, or it may be the imperfection of the education system, which makes fighting demons become the top priority, thus delaying the basic infrastructure. construction.

Only 1000 out of 160 people can become mages. This is the calculation in the best state. If those who can't even take the high school exam are not counted, the real ratio may be even more exaggerated.

Out of 10 people, there will be one mage guaranteed, and if you are lucky, there may be two.

This is the specific situation in the world now, so the number of ordinary people is very large and terrifying.

Once these people all give up hope for the future, it will be a devastating blow to the whole world.

Therefore, there is a need for a way to stabilize the emotions of ordinary people so that they can be full of hope for their future life.

In a word, we must have hope for the future, instead of giving up on ourselves after not becoming a magician.

Therefore, the church system was established. At the beginning, the angel of the holy city served as the pope, and the Five Continents Magic Association provided life, so that the church went to those cities that were attacked by demons to help the local people rebuild their lives. House, start life again to get more believers.

But... a careless church develops too fast, and there are many places in the whole world that have suffered disasters. Compared with believing in the so-called gods and mages, ordinary people are more willing to believe that relying on their own hands to help them suffer the same as themselves Ordinary people, so the number of churches increased too fast, so fast that the church was not established as an organization at all.

May I ask, what impact will a force that controls the support of about 20.00% of the world's population have on the world?
Later, the church became officially independent. The top members of the church were no longer people from the Holy City and the Five Continents Magic Association, but ordinary people who had been helped by the church. Just like your own, give your meager strength for other suffering people.

As a result, the church has become the greatest force in the minds of ordinary people, the Five Continents Magic Association?holy city?Parthenon?Holy Inquisition?Hunter Association?I’m sorry, as an ordinary person, I haven’t heard of these powerful forces, but if you want to talk about the church, I certainly know it well. Back then, the church helped me heal my illness, and I also provided the church with a lot of food to save more people.

In short, in a delicate state, the church has completed its mission at the beginning of its establishment, ensuring the living standards and beliefs of ordinary people, preventing large-scale demolition and strikes, and providing a large number of logistical resources and guarantees. Let the Five Continents Magic Association not have to worry about these things.

From then on, no matter what kind of magical forces can interfere with the church, and the church cannot interfere with magical forces, it has become an unspoken rule, and neither side has crossed that line.

But the rise of the church is also very frustrating. Those who can recover after encountering a big setback are mostly geniuses. With a large number of geniuses who have no future and no resources, the church relies on its own little It is a good story that the dying resource has actually become a power that can be on an equal footing with the highest magic power.

The rich rely on resources, and the poor rely on hard work. This is the truth.

"Um... I don't think it's good to say that Pope?"

The pope and the goddess of the Parthenon are at the same level among the people, but the goddess has not appeared for so many years, and the church has more beliefs. The armed forces of the church are also very strong, but the reserve is a bit weak.

"It's nothing bad. The pope is 20 years older than our old man. He should be over 120 years old this year. There are not many old people at this age. Besides, he is a forbidden curse mage. Should be dead."
