Major Changes!

Seeing the reactions of the others, John Peston looked toward the hall with some confusion.

Previously, four High Priest had completely blocked his view, but now that they had knelt down, the scene in front of him was revealed.

Looking at the familiar middle-aged man sitting behind the vintage wooden table, John Preston felt like he was seeing a ghost!

Just now, he and Elo Partger clearly opened the body bag and saw the Pope's body inside. So what's this "Pope" sitting behind the desk now?

John Preston now desperately wanted to rush down, open the body bag, and take a closer look to see if the corpse was really the Pope!

"Get up!"

The Pope's majestic and profound voice slowly rang out, no different from any they had heard before.

John Preston also lost interest in attacking the four men. He watched as the "Pope" addressed them, assigning them tasks to maintain order in the government and the army. After that, the "Pope" dismissed the four men.

This time, John Preston did not leave with them but looked at the "Pope" who was still sitting there.

Under his gaze, a smile suddenly appeared on the Pope's usually stern face. As the smile appeared, his entire face began to change, and soon he looked like Chen Mo. His height also slowly increased and returned to its original height.

John Preston stared wide-eyed at the incredible scene. Although he had guessed it, he never expected it to be such a dramatic transformation.

"Alright, stop glaring. It's just a matter of subtle body control. There's still a lot to do. Go on."

Reminded by Chen Mo, John Preston finally came to his senses and remembered that there were still many clean-up matters to be done. He quickly turned and left.

Watching John Peston's departing figure, Chen Mo's smile gradually faded. He had already learned Gun Fu, and it was an enhanced version that the Pope had kept privately. His gun skills had greatly improved, and his hand-to-hand combat and swordsmanship had also been greatly enhanced with the support of the Gun Fu principles. His battle with the Pope had also benefited him immensely. This time travel had been quite fruitful.

It's time to prepare to leave!

However, everything has a beginning and an end. Now the Resistance Organization still needs our help to clean up the mess, so a few more days won't make a difference.

In the days that followed, Libya appeared calm, but significant changes were taking place in various sectors.

First, all the original guards of the Pope's Palace were killed in the process of resisting the "rebels". The Pope ordered Elo Partger to draw a new guard from the army, and the Pope's Palace was restored to its previous state where no one was allowed to enter without orders.

After seeing the "Pope" with their own eyes and confirming his safety, the four High Priest no longer requested an audience and directly carried out the mission according to the orders issued by the Pope's Palace. The other Gray Robe Cleric also obediently followed the orders, and Jehovah Clerics were completely under their control.

Orders were issued from the Pope's Palace, and the government, the military, and the Church all underwent significant adjustments.

The first to be affected are the heads of various departments.

Previously, DuPont was in charge of the overall situation, while other members of parliament were responsible for various departments such as the government and the military. Now that they have all been eliminated and the Council has been abolished, it is natural to appoint new leaders.

Chen Mo handed over the government, which was responsible for Libya's construction and people's livelihood, to Jurgen. The Church and the strongest military force, the Jehovah Clerics, were given to John Beston, the strongest among the High Priest. The final army was given to Elo Patje.

In addition to the heads of various departments, other important positions were also taken over. Members of the Resistance Organization in each department were promoted to control the main departments, and a large number of new personnel were also added to each department.

Since the number of Resistance Organization members in the government and army was limited, a large number of capable civilians from the Resistance Organization were also placed in the government and army, enabling the Resistance Organization to completely control Libya.

No one knew that, under the Pope's adjustments, Libya, which strictly forbade emotions, had been taken over by a group of emotional criminals.

After ensuring that he had complete control of the situation and made the necessary preparations, Chen Mo delivered a video speech through J.A.R.V.I.S., announcing the cancellation of the Emotion Crime," the closure of the " Bosean " pharmaceutical factory, the cessation of the use of " Bosean," and the promulgation of strict public order decrees to replace Bosean in restricting people's erroneous emotions, thoughts, and behaviors.

In times of chaos, harsh measures are necessary. The Libya have just recovered from a state of numb apathy, and without strict legal constraints, the country will soon descend into chaos, which would be counterproductive.

In Libya, the Pope's will is supreme, transcending the law; the enactment and repeal of laws are merely a matter of his whim.

After the abolition of the Emotion Crime, there are more soldiers on guard and patrolling in the city than before. However, their task is no longer to find and arrest emotional abusers, but to maintain law and order, protect the safety of the Libya people, maintain good and stable social order, and arrest those who violate the law.

These lawbreakers, suddenly imbued with emotion and excessively unrestrained in their behavior, wouldn't be burned at the stake like previous offenders, but they would still receive varying degrees of caning depending on the severity of their crimes, carried out in the street. The long, slender, tough leather whips would lash their buttocks, tearing open the skin and leaving a bright red welt with each lash. The heart-wrenching screams and the mangled flesh were far more intimidating than burning at the stake.

In the first few days after the use of Bosean was stopped, there were indeed a lot of fights and harassment of women, which caused a period of chaos. However, these people were quickly captured by soldiers. After the law of order they had violated was read out, they were stripped down in the street and executed. In the first few days, the entire city of Libya was shrouded in the sound of whips cracking and cries of agony and pleas for mercy.

While people watched the spectacle with curiosity, they also served as a warning to others, and the security situation improved significantly afterward.

Of course, those who commit robbery, rape, or murder will not simply receive a few more lashes.

With no more emotional offenders, the crematorium couldn't be idle, so these bad apples were all sent there for cremation, contributing their light and heat to the stability of Libya.

Although Chen Mo's decrees on maintaining public order were strict, they were not cruel. Ordinary public offenses would only result in physical pain and a lesson learned, while only serious criminal offenses would result in cremation and execution.
