Chapter 569: Counterattack from Starfall
Chapter 569: Counterattack from Starfall
The research on time magic and space rift magic has made many breakthroughs, especially with the support of the abyss documents provided by Xingluo, scholars have discovered many secrets that the Church is unwilling to disclose. Time magic is no longer an unattainable theory. More and more magicians have begun to master the skills of controlling the flow of time. Of course, compared with Xingluo, it is as different as the bright moon and the firefly. This is why Xingluo is willing to disclose such confidential things, because the Church has already mastered these, so Xingluo also discloses the contents mastered by the Church of Light. Further research will basically be impossible without time magicians, and the research on space rift magic has opened a new chapter in the magic world - they found that through a specific magic array, they can actually open up a short channel between reality and the void, and even achieve instant movement. This is the technology of the space teleportation array, and it is also the secret of the secrets mastered by the Church of Light. However, this is equivalent to disclosing all the time and space research contents mastered by the Church of Light, which has a gap in the monopoly of the Church.
Mo was very satisfied with this. He knew that these breakthroughs in research would slowly permeate the entire magic world and weaken the academic monopoly of the Church. Moreover, the deeper the research, the harder it would be to cover up the contradictions between the academy and the Church. Once the Church became aware of these taboo studies, they would inevitably take action to suppress them. At that time, the scholars of the academy would have to make a choice - to continue to stand in the camp of the Church, or to stand behind Mo and protect their hard-won research freedom.
Xingluo's plan was not a short-term action. He knew that it would take time to break the control of the Church in the academic world, but he was not in a hurry. As time went on, the major magic academies gradually got used to his funding, and their research was increasingly free from the influence of the Church. In some academic fields, the voice of the Church began to become less important. All these plans needed an executor, someone who was deeply trusted by Xingluo and believed in Xingluo.
One obvious change is that more and more young magicians are beginning to question the Church's ban on certain areas of magic. They believe that magic should be a free exploration, not bound by religion and faith. This change in concept is quietly spreading in the academic community.
The Vatican was certainly not unaware of these changes. They tried to reverse the situation by increasing funding and control over the academy, but it was too late. Mo had already planted enough influence within the academy to gradually get the academy out of the control of the Vatican.
Mo's layout has begun to bear fruit. Although the Holy See of Light still has a prominent position in the academic world, its authority is being eroded bit by bit. Mo knows that this does not mean that the Holy See will fall immediately, but it is enough to make the Holy See appear powerless in the face of future challenges.
Scholars at the School of Magic gradually realized that Mo, the mysterious sponsor, was far more complicated than he seemed, but they could not refuse these generous resources and opportunities. While enjoying academic freedom, they also became Mo's "invisible ally" in his fight against the Church.
As time went on, part of Mo's power gradually emerged from the shadows, and the Vatican's academic monopoly, as expected in his plan, was gradually collapsing.
At the same time, Mo also quietly planted a large number of merchants and craftsmen in major cities through the Moon Meteorite Organization. These people are ordinary vendors and craftsmen on the surface, but in fact they are Mo's eyes and supporters. They quietly influence the attitude of the people by selling rare magic materials, weapons and equipment, and soft resistance to the Holy See. Especially with the help of the Flame Hammer Shop, Mo successfully infiltrated the economic foundation of the Holy See. Many nobles and merchants began to gradually rely on Mo's economic network rather than the power of the Holy See. At this moment, everyone suddenly realized that this Flame Hammer magic shop, which seemed to provide private customization for nobles, had such amazing energy. You must know that the power of faith does not distinguish whether you are a noble or a civilian. As long as you are pious, you will have the same amount of faith. So in order to gain more support from a large number of people, this time Mo did not let the Flame Hammer Shop only provide private customization services, but took out a large number of well-made and cheap standard equipment.
Although the Holy See of Light still possesses great power, its ruling foundation has begun to shake. Believers no longer blindly regard the Holy See as a sacred and inviolable existence, and nobles and powerful forces have begun to doubt whether the Holy See can continue to dominate the fate of the continent.
Mo saw all this and smiled with satisfaction. He understood that although the Church was still powerful, it had fallen from the altar. Although this public opinion storm did not completely overthrow the Church, it made the pattern of the entire continent less solid. Nobles, scholars, businessmen, and even ordinary believers began to realize that the Church of Light was not invulnerable.
All of this laid a solid foundation for Xingluo's future layout. Through this action to weaken the Holy See, Mo has won more allies and power for himself. He knows that although the Holy See is still standing, it is no longer the sacred and inviolable existence. And every step forward will make the Holy See of Light sink deeper and deeper in the undercurrent of the continent, until it can't extricate itself.
Mo stood on a high place, overlooking all this, with a sense of smug satisfaction in his heart. He whispered to himself: "Holy See, Holy See, you will collapse completely one day. Before that, I will advance steadily until you can no longer stop us!"
Xingluo's conversation with Mo this time was a counterattack, a warning, and it could even be said to be a revenge for Xingluo being sealed.
This conversation between Xingluo and Mo was full of counterattacks and warnings, and it was also a Jedi counterattack by Xingluo after he was sealed in the abyss.
After being framed by the Holy See of Light and Tiffany's betrayal, Xingluo fell into the abyss and lost his former power and freedom. This call was not just an ordinary contact, but a meaningful contest. As Xingluo's closest partner, Mo understood Xingluo's state of mind. He could sense the suppressed anger in Xingluo's calm tone - this conversation was not an ordinary chat, but a signal from Xingluo to the whole world.
"Do you think you can control everything?" Xingluo said lightly, his voice seemed to come from the abyss, full of ridicule. Mo knew that Xingluo's words were not only directed at him personally, but also a ridicule to the entire Holy See of Light. Since being sealed, Xingluo has experienced a struggle between life and death. He relies on the divine flame crystal in his body to break through the boundaries again and again, and can even use powerful magic beyond his level. This is an incredible power, and Xingluo's control over this power is becoming more and more proficient. Now, he is no longer just the former academy student, but a strong man tempered by the abyss.
