Chapter 1192 - 663: Master of Thunder: My Pope Is Super Powerful! (Part 2)
People seem to be fantasizing about the arrival of the Three Religions Kingdom era.
But that’s impossible.
Alice is very clear about her position.
She is the heir of the Twilight Will.
She does not allow the existence of gods over the Dawn Continent.
So, when there are only three gods in the world on the surface, the chaos among the three gods will thoroughly disrupt the entire world.
The fanatical followers of the Three Great Gods will all perish in this war.
As the gods fall, the Dawn Continent will enter a godless era.
Or rather, it will be an era where everyone can become a god.
All authority will be reclaimed by the world’s consciousness.
The fifteenth-level powerhouses of the Dawn Continent will be just like the fifteenth-level powerhouses of other Soul Card Worlds, possessing great strength but not deities.
The public opinion that Vivian cares so much about is exactly what Alice doesn’t care about at all.
Alice, who spent countless hours surfing the modern world’s internet, had long since seen through the essence of manipulation.
Idiocy, repetition, pollution.
How do you make your voice sound the loudest?
By naturally speaking in the most provocative language and then repeating it constantly.
You don’t need to care what the truth is.
You just need to repeat incessantly, using numerous accounts to repeat it all over again.
People without independent thoughts will follow blindly.
Those with opinions and wisdom will initially refute you.
For such people, you just need to continually wear them out, eating away at their time and energy, until they no longer care about these matters.
When the rational voices tire and fall silent, the entire world will hear only your voice, and those who blindly follow you will elevate you to godhood.
This is also the principle behind Alice making Anna publish so many magazines and newspapers over the years.
In these periodicals, Alice personally played the role of a word-for-word scribe, translating and bringing the excellent works of the real world to the Dawn Continent.
Of course, she didn’t mean to become famous through this—although, in fact, many of her pseudonyms did become famous—she simply wanted to enhance the influence of these periodicals as quickly as possible.
And amidst these works of art, Alice subtly mixed in atheism.
At the appropriate time, she would use the hands of the Three Great Churches to ban these periodicals that she had personally nurtured.
And from the moment they were banned, the true burial of the gods would begin.
Originally, there was another step to fabricate scandals about the Three Great Gods and the churches.
But after accessing the core materials, Alice found that there was no need to fabricate anything.
The Three Great Churches themselves were a huge trash bin of scandals, and one could easily pull out a few sensational big news items at random.
"Alright, it’s about time." Anna checked the time and said to Alice, "You should depart in your capacity as Thunder Pope."
"Hey, which great deity am I dealing with this time?"
"The God of High Mountains, Mingdastar," Anna replied.
Speaking, Anna handed over the materials about the God of High Mountains to Alice.
The God of High Mountains isn’t a very powerful deity.
In fact, with Alice’s current strength, dealing with Him would be more than enough.
But Alice couldn’t show it.
When necessary, she still needs to show some weakness so she can have a reason to ask the Master of Thunder for His divinity.
When dealing with the Master of Thunder, Alice always operated on a borrowing-and-return basis.
——As long as you lend me divinity, I can take care of the guy; by then, His divinity will be yours!
——This deity is too strong! I need to borrow more divinity to deal with Him. Once successful, His divinity will be yours, right?
Using this method, Alice successfully lulled the Master of Thunder into complacency.
From His perspective, each time He lent divinity to Alice, it always yielded substantial returns.
Unfortunately, He didn’t realize that what He was focused on was Alice’s feedback on divinity returns while Alice had her eyes on His principal divinity.
Because of her very good reputation, Alice has become, in the eyes of the Master of Thunder, the one who understands His thoughts best among all the popes throughout history.
Alice awaits the day she will completely exploit the Master of Thunder.
This tactic, likewise, was learned by Alice from the real world.
The God of High Mountains isn’t strong?
No! He is now very strong! Extremely strong!
When Alice arrived at the foot of the so-called Divine Mountain of the God of High Mountains, His followers had already been completely wiped out by the army of Thunder.
"Your Holiness the Pope!"
The Thunder Knights saluted Alice respectfully.
Alice nodded and then walked toward the Divine Mountain.
With her steps, countless thunders surged from her body.
Standing on the summit, the God of High Mountains watched the approaching Alice with a gloomy expression: "I clearly already made concessions! Do you really have to be so relentless?!"
Alice opened her arms and, with a surge of power, floated into the air.
She looked at the God of High Mountains on an equal level and chuckled: "My Lord does not wish for too much noise around Him."
"Humph! A mere human, wanting to kill me?" The God of High Mountains snorted coldly, "Today, I’ll make you understand..."
"Gods! Should not be insulted!"
Accompanied by a powerful divine power fluctuation, the God of High Mountains unfolded His Divine Realm.
Alice’s expression remained calm.
She had casually burned the Divine Realm of the Goddess of Nature; this kind of Divine Realm was nothing in her eyes, the kind she could burn through with the Dawn Fire in a matter of moments.
Of course, since she was launching an attack as the Thunder Pope now, she naturally couldn’t appear too domineering.
At the moment the God of High Mountains unfolded His Divine Realm, Alice immediately activated the Thunder Divine Technique.
As the Thunder Pope, she requested the Master of Thunder to bestow divine power.
After previous adjustments, based on the premise that Alice could always provide enough divinity feedback to the Master of Thunder, He didn’t even think for a moment about Alice’s request this time.
Without hesitation, He bestowed His divinity.
In that instant, thunder enveloped the entire mountain range.
Alice unfolded her field.
Alice’s liking for Life Card Duels wasn’t without reason.
She seriously studied the rules of the duel using Dawn Power.
Then, on that basis, she created a power within the Dawn Realm.
The moment the opponent entered her field, all their abilities and skills were judged and turned into cards.
Next, the cards would clash.
And in this card clash, Alice would usually take the upper hand.
The reason is simple: she could burn off the opponent’s cards.
Hehe, wanting to have a fair and just duel in someone else’s field, isn’t that too far-fetched?
And clearly, the God of High Mountains was such a far-fetched fellow.
When His most critical power card was burned and abolished by Alice, He obviously showed a dumbfounded expression.
The God of High Mountains died.
Died with a puzzled expression.
This human is so cunning!
Even cheats in games!
As the consciousness of the God of High Mountains dissipated, His divinity was immediately sealed by Alice’s Treasure Card.
Actually, from an outsider’s perspective, Alice already revealed many vulnerabilities.
Whether it’s the peculiar field, the Dawn Fire that burns others’ cards, or the Treasure Card that appears in her hand—none of these should be something possessed by a pope of the Church of the Master of Thunder.
Unfortunately, those involved are befuddled, while bystanders are clear.
The Master of Thunder, who had been completely obscured by the divinity feedback from Alice, was lying in His Divine Kingdom, anticipating new divine income.
Just like those scam victims waiting at home for unexpected wealth to fall from the sky.
He doesn’t even want to leave His Divine Kingdom; how could He see these anomalies on Alice?
There were indeed some loyal priests who tried to report Alice.
Unfortunately, under Alice’s manipulation, for the sake of "not disturbing the gods," the prayers of priests and believers had to go through a review process established by Alice before being reported.
In name, this was to reduce the great burden on the Master of Thunder by excluding those empty and meaningless prayers.
But in reality...
The members of this department all came from the restructured Dawn Legion.
And the head of this department is Anna.
The Master of Thunder, completely cut off from external information, could only trust Alice even more.
At least, judging from the divinity feedback, Alice seemed to have no problem at all.
Feeling the divinity of the God of High Mountains returned by Alice, the Master of Thunder praised profusely:
My Pope is truly formidable!
