Spellcasting Heavens
Chapter 1121 Diffusion
How to make a sect spread rapidly in a short period of time?
The answer is simple!
It's nothing more than deception and coercion.
The former is very easy to understand. It is to make up some stories, such as how powerful the gods believed in by the church are, how many great things they have done, and even how they sacrificed themselves to save all mankind.
As for the latter code...
Naturally, he first uses threats to tell you how serious the consequences will be if you don’t believe in God, and then tells you that if you convert now, you will not only be freed from your previous sins, but you can also go to another world to enjoy the wonderful life after your death. Life.
It is a common feature of almost all religions to exchange the faith of mortals with promises of the future, even after death.
The only difference is that those religions that serve true gods will not be too greedy in material terms, while those religions with false gods will, without exception, become tools for amassing money and interfering with secular power.
Relying on Grizzly Romand's familiarity with the low-level gangs, the woman quickly recruited a group of bastards who usually did all kinds of evil, and then used them to spread her faith.
Of course, this belief is actually similar to collecting protection money.
In those slums where official power cannot reach, those who are willing to believe in the dark god Ruva and regularly participate in sacrificial activities can be exempted from most of the protection fees, while those who are unwilling to believe will be severely slaughtered. .
Sound familiar?
Are they exactly the same as the methods used by a certain religion in the Middle East on Earth during its rapid expansion?
That’s right!
For mortals, it doesn't matter what kind of gods they believe in, especially if they can't even solve the most basic problems of food and clothing, why would they care about what the gods' teachings are.
As long as they can get tangible benefits, it doesn't matter even if they are asked to sacrifice to the devil.
Looking at the poor people kneeling on the ground muttering something, the woman couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, and said in a voice that only she could hear: I see... this is faith! It's much simpler than I thought. Although they still have Far from being pious, and unable to understand the true meaning of darkness, it can provide the power to awaken the God of Darkness from chaos.
I... don't understand. What's the point of doing this? They are all poor people. Even if they are thrown into a pot and squeezed, they won't be able to squeeze out any oil. Romande shook his head in confusion.
Especially these days, this dangerous and crazy woman in front of me has taken out thousands of gold coins from her own pocket as funds for activities. Is there really a so-called God of Darkness?
You must know that although there are various temples and churches of various sizes standing on this land, in fact no one has really seen God. Even the miracles recorded in classics are mostly full of coincidences and coincidences. chance.
The reason why the upper-class nobles believed in gods was, on the one hand, to seek peace of mind, and on the other hand, they hoped to use these large and small churches to restrain their minds and prevent serfs and tenants who had been oppressed for a long time from rebelling.
Leaving aside others, Romande, who has done a lot of evil things, definitely does not believe that there are gods in this world, otherwise he would have been struck to death by lightning long ago.
Hmph! With your brain, which is not much smarter than a pig, of course you cannot understand how terrifying the power of faith is. Think about it, if more than half of the lower class people in this city become members of the church, and then there are so few officers Or the nobles also joined in,
How would you react as the master of this city? The woman asked with a sneer.
You mean...corroding the city bit by bit from the bottom up, and ultimately achieving the goal of absorbing power?
Although Romande had no education, he was not stupid enough and immediately understood the other party's subtext.
Ingestion rights? The woman smiled disdainfully. No, I'm not interested in power. What I want is the right to spread faith openly, not as secretly as now. Do you know? When the cohesion of a religion reaches a certain level, the power it unleashes is far beyond Your imagination. At that time, even the king will lower his noble head when he sees us and ask me to put the crown on his head. Faith is something that is above all worldly powers.
Crown the king?! Romande's eyes widened suddenly, as if he couldn't imagine such an extremely crazy scene.
That's right! One day, I will build a heaven on earth and let everyone kneel in front of Luva, the god of darkness, even the king.
When she said these words, the woman's eyes were flashing with fire that was so hot that it could burn everything.
There is no doubt that this ongoing career has filled her spiritual emptiness and even given her an unparalleled sense of satisfaction.
Although I don’t know how long this enthusiasm can last, at least there is no intention of retreating yet.
Just as the God of Darkness spread quietly among the people at the bottom, Kerwin finally got the information passed back from his allies, and sat in his study with his chin in his hands, deep in thought.
Coming from a rural aristocracy, he had the same common problem as most aristocrats, that is, he looked down on the people living at the bottom of society, and he didn't care what they were doing in their daily lives, as long as they paid their taxes on time.
It has to be said that this kind of rough management gives people with a lot of room for maneuver.
But so far, the indigenous people of this world have not realized what a terrifying chain reaction it will have if the bottom of their pyramidal power structure collapses and rebounds.
So, that prince has taken a liking to Vilia and wants to use this rebellion to force her to hand over her rights and become a doll and puppet for him to play with? Kerwin threw the information into the brazier and burned it. There was unabashed sarcasm in his tone.
He really didn't know whether he should scold the other person for being stupid, but he should still laugh at the other person for not overestimating his abilities.
After all, Vilia is the agent chosen by the Master. The steel puppets and monster army in his hands alone are enough to sweep over 90% of the countries on this continent.
But now, there is someone who is ambitious and wants to replace the master before contacting him. That is a restricted area that even he dare not touch.
Yes, sir. If nothing else happens, the rebellion has already been launched the moment this letter is handed over to you. What, do we want to help them? A confidant asked cautiously.
No! Don't! This matter has nothing to do with us. What's more, I don't even bother to participate in this kind of conspiracy that is destined to fail. As he said that, Kerwin picked up a pen and paper and quickly wrote an enthusiastic letter on it. He handed the letter to his confidant. Go, give this letter to Vilia, and tell her that we should give up our prejudices and hatred and work together to teach that old guy who thinks he is still a lion a lesson.
