Fake Ancient God

Chapter 122: All ready to go

Today's Buck's Bookstore closed a little earlier, and before the sun went down in the evening, it put up a closed sign.

According to the agreement with Quentin, the seven went to the Moonlight Church and authenticated the identity of the United Church.

With Quentin here, the process has become much simpler, and many unnecessary processes have been skipped.

Because the approver is Quentin himself.

From then on, they were outsiders of the United Church, acting as the secret guardians of the surface world.

In the future, when encountering a treacherous incident, or in the process of dealing with a treacherous incident, you will no longer have to hide your identity in a timid way, and you can even directly apply for the assistance of the church.

In addition, it also has permissions that ordinary people cannot touch, such as the right to read some files and the right to investigate special events.

The level of such permissions will increase as their rating increases.

As a general rule, as long as an external staff member has dealt with enough special events, their rating will go up.

At some point, even the United Church will appoint some external staff, who have a high enough internal rating, to be in charge of special events in a certain area, sharing the law enforcement power with the local church.

Of course, as external editors, their identities are not disclosed to the public.

Therefore, on the bright side, there is no official official identity. Only some local high-level officials or church members know their true identities.

With sufficient staff, the church is of course more willing to consider its own people.

After all, no one wants to divide their power to outsiders for no reason, even if they are outsiders in name, they are still under the jurisdiction of the United Church.

But sometimes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and it is really difficult to control.

The United Church cannot easily punish such people because of trivial matters, because their use value is obviously greater than the disadvantages of their existence.

Therefore, the external editors with high ratings can also be regarded as local nobles hidden behind the scenes.

After all, it would be strange if the local dignitaries knew the city where they were located, and that there was such an existence with law enforcement power and special abilities, and they would not compete to win over and express goodwill.

From this, the upper-level contacts and privileges that such external editors did not have on the surface were derived.

In order to prevent similar situations, two unspoken rules have gradually formed in the United Church.

One is that when grading one's own people, it is easy to give a higher rating, and there will be a situation of "pressure rating" for external editors.

The judges and the jury are their own people, which is also expected.

The other is that it is not necessary to appoint an external editor to become the person in charge of a certain area.

The reason is still not good monitoring.

People don't go to the church every day to check in and report, and abuse of authority is more likely to happen.

Take a simple example.

A person with special abilities and law enforcement power is walking on the road and has some unpleasant misunderstandings with ordinary people, and the other party suddenly slaps you in the face.

what will you do?

If you choose to slap him back and then turn him over to the official law enforcement department to receive oral education, this is completely in line with the rules.

If you choose to beat him into a pig's head, or even maim him directly, or kill him, this is against the rules.

You know that even if you kill the person in front of you, speak rudely to yourself, keep greeting your own mother, and spit thick phlegm in your face, nothing will happen.

The church will not severely punish the local person in charge it appoints because of this trivial matter.

After all, your existence is more useful, and if there are people who can restrain you, there will be no external staff appointed to become the regional head.

With the other party's thick phlegm hanging on your face, will you really follow the rules?

The above is just a very small example. In an unconstrained environment, the probability that human nature will obey the rules is infinitely close to zero.

So even when I joined the United Church, there was a very high-sounding question and answer process. For example, I would sincerely do my best to maintain world peace and protect the well-being of one party.

But as everyone knows, it's just a form.

Even if some people really take that process seriously, they want to maintain the justice in their hearts, and they have the character of hating evil.

However, in the church's research data, those who talk about justice and hatred all day long tend to have a much larger limit of losing control and breaking the rules.

Because such people can be seen from their words and deeds, they are more extreme.

With thick phlegm hanging on his face, and being greeted continuously by his mother, he basically "punishes evil and removes evil" without any accident.

It's actually nothing, normal people do that.

But such a person is more likely to adhere to the principle of "do everything to eliminate evil" and involve a series of things.

For example, hang the corpses of those who have been exterminated on the city wall to expose their corpses to deter other Xiao Xiao, or in a fit of rage, kill a certain gangster organization, causing a major serial killing incident.

Then his relatives came to the door to ask for an explanation, and another mouthful of sputum was spit on his face.

Then he went on to kill.

By the way, I will dig out some mistakes that others have made in the past to comfort my heart of justice.

At this point, it is basically difficult to end.

The local people's hearts were completely disorganized, causing countless private chaotic incidents.

Because of their special status, if the local dignitaries want to please him, they have to end it for him, right?

At the end, it is inevitable that there will be collective violations of the rules and deception.

In this way, a large number of people were involved.

From top to bottom, it will be messed up.

The Wangcheng Church parachuted to control the situation and censured him.

He will also say himself, just to uphold the heart of justice.

There have been many such examples in the past.

And the reality will be more complicated. It will not be as simple as someone spitting on you and greeting your mother, and the consequences will be more severe.

Therefore, when the church appoints a special person in charge, there is such an unspoken rule that outsiders cannot be trusted.

In other words, the human heart, the human brain, cannot be trusted.

The human heart cannot be tested, this is something that most people know.

As for the human brain, countless past facts have proven that not everyone has it.

As for the church’s own people, whether they have the above two things or not, the main point is that they can supervise them. They go to the church every day to check in and go to work. It is difficult to do such a thing.

Believers stare at the church.

The Church checks and balances the kingdom.

The kingdom disciplines believers.

It is the normal situation in most parts of the world that the forces of all parties check and balance each other and reconcile each other, and thus the good balance has been achieved today.

And for those external editors with special powers, too high a rating is obviously breaking this balance.

Because the higher the rating, the greater the power, and it is difficult for the church to refuse requests such as applying for the name of a person in charge.

In the case of trying their best to "press the score", people can rate it to that level, which means that the contribution made can only be greater, and it is not just as simple as saving a city and a pool of people.

If you don't give power, you can't justify it, right?

It is precisely because of the existence of this unspoken rule that although the group of Buck's Bookstore solved a fourth-level peak abstract source incident, the ratings given by Wangcheng were all second-level personnel.

If you want to continue to upgrade and get more, then continue to take tasks and really contribute to maintaining world peace.

That way, when the church upgrades or delegates power to you, you can be more daring and worry-free.

After Nie Yuan was appointed as a second-level member of the United Church, he went through the process of joining the Moonlight Church.

With Quentin there, it was very simple, and it was done in no time.

As he requested, Quentin put him in the law enforcement department in a fictitious position.

However, he did not give him the law enforcement medal, which is equivalent to not giving him the power to enforce the law. Although Nie Yuan complained verbally, he did not take it to heart.

He knew that this was normal. Unless he really knew it in a certain church and clocked in to work every day, how could he let himself be an outsider to enforce the law on behalf of the Moonlight Church.

After all the links were completed, Quentin also told Nie Yuan and the others about the functions and authority of the second-level personnel.

He also opened up some files that fit their level, and also introduced them to a list of tasks that can be consulted in every city-level church.

It means that if they want to level up, or exchange some treasured items within the church, they should go to the task and solve the strange incident.

After Nie Yuan and the others figured out everything, it was already late at night when they returned to Buck's Bookstore.

They are also more interested in the information within the United Church~lightnovelpub.net~ because whether they want to recover quickly or exchange for some rare alchemy materials, they can be achieved by doing quest upgrades.

However, they were not in a hurry to participate, because they had already promised Lilian that they would go to the royal city together, and they still don't know when they will set off.

Just like that, a week passed.

Lilian's manor finally moved, and a big move began.

The carts of debris were tied to the carriage, and as the vanguard, they set off in the direction of Wangcheng.

And Lilian herself, within this week, made the final arrangements for Ruiyan City and completed the transfer of power.

She brought her own bodyguards to the front of Buck's bookstore.

No longer hide it, openly and aboveboard, make a formal invitation to the group of seven.

Invite them to step on their own chariots and go to the royal city together.

Goal, supreme authority.
