At the same time, on the other side...

In the Papal Hall of the New World State Church Headquarters, An Lijie, who was wearing a pure white formal suit with gold trim and a papal crown on her head, was full of solemnity and sanctity. The majesty emanating from her body made all the wingmen below lower their heads.

.

An Lijie's posture at this moment was completely different from her appearance when she was getting along with Luo Ji yesterday.

In response to this, Luo Yunxi, who was standing aside with a sword, seemed not surprised.

An Lijie basically only enters that state of relaxation in private and when she is with her relatives.

As for that, during her work, she naturally wanted to maintain her dignity as the pope.

Otherwise, how could she manage such a huge state religion?

Listening to the report of a bishop below, several subtle wrinkles appeared invisibly between An Lijie's eyebrows, and at the same time, a hint of displeasure appeared in her eyes.

What happened this time was not that complicated.

To put it simply, during this period of time, fraud incidents have continued to occur in various cities.

The victims are mainly non-believers and outside believers who have come to the church to pray and participated in state church activities.

Some people use the name of their state religion to obtain "donations" from non-believers and peripheral believers on the pretext of "relieving poor families."

The individual amounts are not large, the most is about a hundred yuan, and the less is as little as one or two yuan.

The people of all civilizations can basically maintain their lives above a moderately prosperous standard. The small amount of money spent is not worth mentioning to them. In addition, the state religion has established an image among the people over the years.

, Therefore, after completing the 'donation', those non-believers and outside believers basically did not pay much attention to this matter.

It wasn't until a recent state church event that a peripheral believer who had donated several hundred yuan suddenly remembered this matter and wanted to know the progress and specifics of the relief activities, so he asked the pastor in the church, which led to this

The 'donation activities' in the name of their state religion were completely exposed.

At this moment, An Lijie looked still calm on the surface, but the anger in her heart was already burning.

What happened this time was not just a simple fraud. If it was not handled properly, it would even affect the image of their state religion among the people.

She and her father founded the state religion, and how many years of hard work did it take to develop it to this point?

How can we tolerate rats coming to smear?!

"Have the messages been blocked?"

"Reporting to His Majesty the Pope, the news has been blocked."

"very good."

An Lijie nodded after hearing this.

"Until this matter is thoroughly investigated, it is forbidden to spread it to outsiders. If discovered, we will be severely punished!"

The whole story has not yet been fully investigated. If this news spreads without permission, God knows how it will be spread in the end.

With an order, the outlying cultist who had been defrauded of money was quickly brought to An Lijie.

It was completely different from the feeling he had when participating in state church activities in the past. Looking at His Majesty the Pope who was so close to him, the peripheral believer was so nervous that he even stuttered a bit when he spoke.

"See, see His Majesty the Pope."

Looking at the nervous outer believers, An Lijie showed a soft smile on her face.

"Don't be nervous, I just want to ask a few questions."

The soft words seemed to carry some kind of power, which made the a little nervous outsider believer relax unconsciously, and at the same time, the expression on his face was full of piety.

"Your majesty, please tell me the truth. As long as I know something, I will tell you the truth."

An Lijie's interview went very smoothly.

After understanding the entire situation and instructing the peripheral believer to temporarily cooperate with the work of the state church and not to spread the word about this matter, An Lijie's mood gradually became more solemn as she watched the other party leave.

The name and identity of the fraudster were undoubtedly fake. Under this premise, through this understanding, An Lijie vaguely realized a bad thing.

She originally wanted to solve this matter by herself.

But now it seems that this matter is a little troublesome. In order to prevent the situation from getting out of control or making a big fuss in the future, the sooner the better, the better. For this, she needs the help of her father, Luo Ji.

After signaling for everyone to leave, Anli Jie quickly dialed Luo Ji's phone number.

At that time, Luo Ji had just seen the ruins of the Notre Dame Cathedral, and planned to take a look at the development of cities in the New World.

When I saw An Lijie's call, a thoughtful look flashed in my eyes.

"Hello, An Li Jie?"

"It's me, father. I need your help now."

When Luo Ji heard this, his expression was as expected.

Before they set off, something seemed to have happened to the State Church, and now that An Lijie suddenly called him, it was most likely that the matter was a little tricky.

After roughly understanding the situation over the phone, Luo Ji quickly realized that this matter had serious implications.

Then directly express...

"I understand the general situation. I will ask Luo Jin to contact you later. In addition, I will inform Ye Hua."

After ending the call with An Lijie, Luo Ji called Luo Jin and Ye Hua without stopping to explain the situation.

For Ye Hua, who has been so busy lately, it was really terrible that such a thing happened suddenly.

In order to prevent this matter from getting worse, he had to take some time out of his busy schedule to make some preparations in advance, just in case.

It has to be said that this unexpected situation really affected many people. Even Luo Ji temporarily changed his itinerary and planned to stay in the New World for a longer period of time.

The reputation and image of the state religion are crucial.

Once it is damaged, it will affect not only the state religion, but also Luo Ji.

Because the state religion believes in the civilization of all realms and royal power, and in the civilization of all realms, the incarnation of royal power is Luo Ji!

Different from the beginning, when the state religion has developed to this stage, the royal power system of Luo Ji Wanjie Civilization has basically been integrated with the state religion.

It can be said that when one is prosperous, both are prosperous, and when one is damaged, both are harmed!

After quickly confirming the entire situation, Luo Jin, who was in the capital at the time, directly mobilized all the forces of his Spiegel Division in the New World, intending to find out the whole story in the shortest possible time.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the world of civilization, the Mirror Division's eyes and ears are almost everywhere in every corner. In their own territory, there is basically nothing they can't find out. It just depends on whether they take the time to check it out!
