I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 287
Chapter 287 – The Impact of Christ’s Descent
Shanghai Office —
“Leader, not good, not good!”
With a ‘bang’, Gui Bin crashed through the door and stumbled inside the office while panting and gasping for air.
“Calm down, calm down. Little Gui, you are now an official so you can’t stammer all the time. If you do things impatiently, how would other people under us see you? Sigh, I also know that you are young, making you understand the twists and turns of the system would be a bit difficult.”
The team leader said slowly and methodically. He lit up a cigarette and showed a look of enjoyment, “This special cigarette is quite pleasant. Say it, what happened? What made you so anxious?”
“Chr-Christ…”
Gui Bin picked up the mineral water on the table and took a long sip to calm himself.
“Christ? What happened to Christ?”
The leader frowned and did not respond immediately.
“Leader, you can take a look at the internet yourself. The Son of God has come down, though he isn’t Jesus, he really came down!”
Gui Bin quickly added, “Do you know Sister Mirda who won the Nobel Peace Prize? That nun is now in Kenya, but because of her age and serious illness, she passed away there, but the nun was not only revived but was also rejuvenated. All of this was filmed by a Chinese infrastructure engineer.”
The team leader quickly extinguished his cigarette, quickly opened his laptop, and complained, “Why didn’t you tell me about such an important matter earlier!”
Since the internet side of things was Gui Bin’s responsibility, the head of the division was half a beat slower to know the news.
He quickly entered some terms in the search bar of his browser and found that microblogs and major websites were reporting on this matter frantically. Then he quickly opened various video sites and confirmed Gui Bin’s words.
After poring over each frame of the videos, the team leader asked, “Do you think this is real? Perhaps it’s a good hoax.”
“I contacted the engineer before coming to inform you. There were several engineers present at the scene and their experiences corroborated the events here. The resurrection and rejuvenation of Miranda, the contemporary Saintess of Christ, is not something that could be faked. Through our understanding, the descended Christ is currently leading his disciples, embarking on the road to the ‘Holy Land’.”
Gui Bin spoke extremely fast and reported all he knew to the leader.
“The Book of Exodus?”
The leader had enough religious knowledge to know where things are going. He immediately thought of this famous biblical event, “Israel, which is the present-day Canaan, was the ‘Holy Land’ recorded in the Bible, but where is the ‘Holy Land’ that this Christ is speaking of? And why did those engineers post such an important video on the internet?”
“How would I know where the Holy Land that Christ spoke of is? As for that engineer, he has already committed to doing it. Let’s not fight about this matter.”
“Right, right. Little Gui, your words are correct, but now I am more confused than ever.”
The leader held onto his head. Christ descending on Earth was much bigger even than some deep ones appearing in Tokyo. Christianity had more than two billion believers on Earth. This matter was simply a test of humanity. He worried that if people failed, the four horsemen of the apocalypse might just descend and the Last Judgment would be upon everyone.
“What’s the situation of Christians in our country?”
The leader calmed down and asked. Compared to the chaos outside, stability within the country was more important.
“Our Christian population is relatively restrained. There’s been little worrisome movement from them.”
Hearing Gui Bin’s words, the leader shivered as he imagined that kind of terrifying world.
“The Vatican side also hasn’t made a single peep.”
The leader quickly looked up information on Google. He found that the three major Christian denominations, namely Catholicism, Orthodox Christianity, and Protestantism had not yet made any announcements. This was especially so for the Vatican City which was the center of Christianity. It was very strange that they had not said anything about such a big event as the descent of Christ.
However, because the influence of Christ’s descent was too big, a variety of information had begun to emerge. Each time the web page was refreshed, more information would appear. Soon, the leader found information about Vatican City’s actions.
“As expected of a group of veterans. The Pope has directly called the cardinals. Their reactions are also quite fast. After a short meeting, they all took a plane to Kenya to go have an audience with Christ.”
The leader clicked his tongue and took a deep breath.
“Did the Vatican admit that this Christ is the one who came down to Earth? It should be clear that the words of Christ in the video are not in line with the bible. I thought that it might have been Hong Qiuquan’s resurrection when I first saw it. The Vatican also did not deny anything.”
Gui Bin said as he raised his eyebrows.
“If it was before, the Vatican would have rebuked this as blasphemy, but with recent events, things are not the same. This was especially so after the Torch Dragon appeared and brought forth the day by opening its eyes. With such an incredible miracle and various supernatural happenings in the world, it would be hard for the Vatican to just casually deny that this Christ is fake. They did not dare smash their own feet with a stone as they might be burned at the stake even if they are the pope and cardinals.”
“Moreover, the Bible is the anchor of Christian doctrine, a record of the Word of God, which is something similar to the constitution of our country. Although it’s a supreme law, it can be interpreted in different ways. Maybe more new gospels will emerge with the descent of Christ. The Vatican has gone to verify this Christ’s identity, or to be exact, they are eager to meet this real Christ. This would increase Christianity’s influence. God’s will would soon penetrate society and might even bring back the glory of the Middle Ages!”
“The age of mortals may be coming to an end.”
The leader leaned back on his chair and stroked his hand over his chest, “I hope that Christ is really like what was written in the Bible. That he is only going to preach and not join in mortal power struggles. Otherwise, how are we going to fight against the gods.”
“L-leader, if that Christ is real, then the Western countries would be heavily influenced. W-what should we do?”
Gui Bin was suddenly terrified.
It must be known that there were many Christian believers around the world. There were even some in China when people had entered to perform missionary work. If Christ was truly a god, then the Eastern countries would suffer a lot.
“No need to fear. You still haven’t noticed it? Let’s not mention others, don’t we have the old man from the Qin Dynasty. Moreover, a Torch Dragon had also appeared. This proves that the ‘one God’ of Christianity isn’t real. Didn’t that Japanese onmyouji also say that he could borrow the power of Amaterasu? With this much evidence, the ‘one God’ of Christianity is only their boasting. If they have Christ, we also have our own faith.”
“In whom do we believe?”
“Believe in Fuxi, in Nuwa, in the three sovereigns and five emperors, believe in our ancestors, and believe in the Jade Emperor.”
……
The Vatican’s plant carried the Pope and the cardinals to Kenya. At the same time, major countries had sent their own journalists to Kenya immediately. Many devout believers also went to Kenya at their own expense. While the whole world was talking about the descent of Christ, many countries also had emergency meetings.
The East African country which rarely entered the spotlight suddenly found itself making headlines.
Because there, the Son of God of the largest religion was walking on earth.
