Chapter 3923: The Pope Should Abdicate
The Pope was once again stunned by Lin Feng, which made many cardinals have the urge to kill Lin Feng. But this impulse, behind Lin Feng and under the huge pressure of the dark crowd around them, turned into a wave of resentment and went deep into his belly, and he endured it.
"Lin Feng, what do you want to do?" Many cardinals said angrily.
Lin Feng played with the machete on his body and smiled.
"What you want to do is very simple, just ask for an explanation for me!" Lin Feng said lazily, "I have been here for so many days, haven't I been asking for an explanation for myself. So, you must give me an explanation. Say it, it’s necessary!”
"What do you want to say?" Many cardinals trembled with anger.
"What do you mean? This is your business. In short, if you don't satisfy me, I won't leave!" Lin Feng said with a cigar in his mouth, "No one here can leave!"
What! You can't even leave! Didn’t you see that His Majesty the Pope has fainted? Didn’t you see that His Majesty the Pope’s face is turning blue at the moment? He needs medical treatment. If it drags on any longer, someone might die.
"Well, isn't His Majesty the Pope blessed by God? Nothing will happen to him. Of course, if you must worry about your Majesty the Pope, that's fine. You can ask your doctors to come to the scene to treat His Majesty the Pope." Lin Feng Machete pointed and said.
"What! Treat His Majesty the Pope here, Lin Feng, you are going too far!" Many cardinals were furious. It's freezing cold here, and there are so many people around. How could they allow His Majesty the Pope to receive treatment here, under the watchful eyes of these infidels? This is simply impossible.
"Haha, is that too much?" Lin Feng blew out a smoke ring. "Didn't you just imprison me here? Now, the situation has been reversed, and I have imprisoned you here. So, don't say anything too much to me. In this world, strength speaks for itself after all. Now my strength Strong, so you have to listen to me."
Many cardinals were very angry at Lin Feng's words. But looking at the dark crowds around, they all dared to be angry but dare not speak out. I want to order someone to shoot, but at this moment, it looks like those Vatican gendarmes. The Pope's Guards were all disarmed. They all stood aside with drooped faces, surrounded by people, and did not dare to make any move. This time, many cardinals were even more angry and dared not speak out. Even the largest force team has been disarmed, and they are even less confident. I had no choice but to summon the doctor in frustration to diagnose and treat Benedict XVI on the spot. Of course, they would not forget to isolate the surrounding area with curtains. To avoid too much embarrassment to the Pope.
"Lin Feng. What do you want?" The cardinal freed his hands and asked angrily.
"I said. The key to the problem is you,
not me. I'm here to ask for an explanation, so where is your sincerity? Lin Feng asked.
Sincerity! Fuck your sincerity! Many cardinals roared in frustration. However, these roars can naturally only be hidden deep in the heart and cannot be spoken out. If this is said out loud, it will undoubtedly intensify conflicts.
"Mr. Lin, tell me. What do you want?" Archbishop Francis interjected to prevent the conflict between the two parties from escalating again. Although he is dissatisfied with Benedict XVI, it does not mean that he is willing to see the church destroyed. There is a difference.
"What do I want?" Lin Feng chuckled, "I'm afraid you won't be able to satisfy me if I ask for it."
"Mr. Lin, tell me, we are very sincere. After all, this time, we are the first to be in the wrong!" Francis said.
"Archbishop Francis, what are you talking about! Why do you think we are wrong in the first place!" Many cardinals immediately shouted.
"The Wind God is mighty!" Many divine disciples roared, immediately suppressing the voices of these cardinals.
"Everyone, I think you should be quiet. Don't forget, I have the final say here. Also, I think Archbishop Francis is right. It was you who were in the wrong first. Why, someone is now Don’t you agree? If you don’t agree, stand up to me. I want to see who dares not to admit that the church is wrong!” The machete in Lin Feng’s hand pointed at everyone, the machete shining in the moonlight, and many cardinals. I feel weak in my heart. Well, this guy Lin Feng even dared to tear down the Vatican wall. If he jumped out at this time, Lin Feng might be able to chop him down with a single blow.
Although this sounds incredible and exaggerated, Lin Feng really dares to do this. This guy is a madman, a daring madman, he dares to do anything! And although these cardinals are loyal to the Holy See, no one is willing to lose their lives here out of thin air. At least no one wants to offend Lin Feng, a lunatic. It's so unfair that he's going to die.
"Well, no one objects to your church being in the wrong first. Then I will tell you what I want, Archbishop Francis." Lin Feng chuckled, "My request is only two points. First, the church must apologize to me in public. , apologized to me in front of all believers, admitted to me the errors of the church, and condemned the conspiracy of Japan and South Korea.”
Although many cardinals were dissatisfied and felt that this was not an apology, they finally felt aggrieved when they saw the threat of Lin Feng's machete, the darkness surrounding the disciples, and the crazy look in Lin Feng's eyes. Nod in agreement.
"Okay, Mr. Lin, I promise you." Seeing that many cardinals had no objections, Archbishop Francis nodded and agreed.
"Okay, it seems that we have reached the first consensus. Then let's talk about the second condition. My second condition is very simple, just one point, that is, Benedict XVI must step down!" Lin Feng said.
"What! Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! His Holiness the Pope cannot be removed! This is absolutely impossible!" Many cardinals exclaimed, and they were all furious. "Lin Feng, you are too much. How can you be like this? You are simply crazy. This is the Vatican, not your "second world". You don't have the final say in everything. Don't go too far!"
Francis was also shocked by Lin Feng's request. This request was too bold. In the church, once the Pope is crowned, it is an irremovable lifelong career. This is absolutely, absolutely, absolutely not to be desecrated. Lin Feng is now actually going to remove the Pope, which is too bold. But he is very excited.
"Mr. Lin, according to the divine law of the Vatican, the Pope cannot be removed. And although the Pope is slightly inappropriate, he should not be punished by removal!" Francis said.
"Yes, the Pope cannot be dismissed. He must not be dismissed. Lin Feng, don't go too far!" Many cardinals immediately chimed in. Unfortunately, they didn't know that Francis was not helping Benedict XVI at all, but was inducing Lin Feng to tell the reason or method of dismissal. At the same time, he was also telling Lin Feng that if it was feasible, he could help Lin Feng.
"Noisy!" Lin Feng shouted coldly.
"The Wind God is mighty!" The 200,000 believers behind him roared. The eardrums of all the cardinals were buzzing, as if they could be broken at any time. Many cardinals were frightened and pale. Although they were still roaring, they looked fierce but weak.
"I know that the Pope cannot be dismissed. But it didn't say that the Pope cannot retire. As far as I know about religious history, Gregory XII also retired voluntarily in 1415. In that theocracy era, the Pope could retire, let alone now. So, don't say no to me. You have no right to say no to me!" Lin Feng said lightly, "Now, I just want to ask you if you agree!"
What, ask us if we agree? How can we agree! Indeed, in 1415, there was indeed a Pope named Gregory XII who took the initiative to abdicate before his death. This was the first Pope in the church's thousand-year history to abdicate for reasons other than death. But there were historical reasons for it at that time. At that time, the church was in a state of division, and the external situation was complicated, so Gregory XII finally chose to preserve the integrity of the church and the church's rule over the mortal world, and to avoid the fall of theocracy, and chose to abdicate voluntarily.
But the situation is different now. Theocracy has fallen. The church no longer has the status and great ruling power over the world. The pope has become the only fig leaf left for the church. If the pope is abdicated again, it will become a joke for all ages. And he was forced to abdicate, which is even more unacceptable.
"No, we absolutely won't agree!" The cardinals roared in unison, "Lin Feng, don't be too complacent. Although there are many of you here, don't forget that this is the Western world, the world of the church, and the world of God. You will definitely be punished for your perverse actions like this."
"Yes, you will definitely be punished. Lin Feng, you will die miserably." Everyone roared.
Lin Feng smiled.
"Retribution? I have always believed that this is all self-deception. I only agree with cause and effect, but the idea of retribution is too weak. Think about the nine Crusades of your church, and more than hundreds of millions of people died under your butcher knife. As a result, your church has not multiplied for thousands of years. So, don't tell me about retribution!" Lin Feng said disdainfully, "Also, even if there is retribution, you can't see it. If you don't agree today, then I can only use force. This time I come, I will not leave easily. I will never give up until I achieve my goal!"
What! Use force! Many cardinals were pissed off by Lin Feng. What a shame, once upon a time, it was the church that said this to people, but now it's their turn. This is too shameful.
Lin Feng, you will be punished! You will definitely be punished! Many cardinals roared.
Lin Feng smiled coldly. Retribution, do you want me to slaughter you first and see if there is retribution! (To be continued)
